Dr. Riek Machar, Pagan Amum, Gen. Paul Malong And Thomas Cirilo Are Responsible For Ethnic Violence, SPLM Secretary For External Affairs Claimed

Bol Makueng SPLM Secretary For External Affairs 


Top Trending News Today: 





A high ranked member of the Sudan People's Liberation Movement "SPLM" claimed that Dr. Riek Machar, Gen. Paul Malong and Thomas Cirilo are the ones behind the ethnic killings and violence in South Sudan. 


While addressing the media in Juba, Bol Makueng who is the SPLM Secretary For External Affairs defended Peter Lam by saying that, Dr. Riek Machar has been telling people that he was fighting the Dinka people which can be proven by everyone. 


“But he (Peter Lam Both) was addressing it when he said that Riek [Machar] was telling people that his war was against the Dinka which triggered all this and which is true because the soldiers who used to come back during all these conflicts used to come and said we have been misled, we are told that we are fighting the Dinka. They said it over the media many times and it is in the archive,” Bol Makueng said. 


Bol Makueng further said that Dr. Riek Machar, Pagan Amum Paul Malong and Thomas Cirilo are exploiting "ethnic sentiments " from their communities in order to promote ethnic violence in South Sudan. 


“So, Peter Lam was only advising the people of South Sudan that don’t use ethnicity. What mentioned Riek Machar was an example of those of Malong, those of Pagan, those of Thomas Cirilo, who are actually articulating on ethnic basis appealing to the ethnic sentiments so mentioning this was actually telling the people of South Sudan don’t go ethnic and especially don’t go violence. If you have a case, if you have a political program, please tell the people of South Sudan,” Bol Makueng said. 


He further said that:  "The people of South Sudan shouldn’t again be agitated by these hypocrites because this kind of hypocrisy is the one that is being utilized these days for political gains. They will clash our communities to fight and kill each other just because they want to be put as a general, or you want to be a vice president, or you want to be a minster. These things are things of the past, let’s understand ourselves as communities." Bol Makueng said. 


“Also, there is no vice-president, a tribal vice-president, a tribal general or a tribal minister. These things are not there. If you are there, you are for the whole nation, you are not for a specific community. I just need to be clear to the people of South Sudan, if they don’t get it right, please all we ask never never again led the blood of South Sudanese in your hands, please.” Bol Makueng added.
