Fellow Junubeen,
The propaganda machine of the dark forces would like to portray the Tumaini Consensus, currently being negotiated in Nairobi, Kenya, under the leadership of H.E. President Dr. William Ruto, as a threat to our citizens and national sovereignty.
This is nothing but malicious misinformation from the hired voices of traditional elites in our land.
It is pure mischief!
The Tumaini Consensus is a peace initiative launched by President Salva Kiir himself in his ongoing efforts to silence the guns and bring lasting peace to our nascent Republic. We salute the courage of our President in these noble efforts, despite attempts by saboteurs to derail the peace process.
We are all victors in a quest for peace and security for our people. But when forced to seek military solutions, we are all losers.
Compatriots,
Tumaini, contrary to the claims of those benefiting from the barbaric status quo in our country, is not about Comrades Pagan Amum, Gen. Paul Malong Awan, Gen. Buay Rolnyang, or any other opposition leaders.
Nor is it about the parties in the South Sudan Opposition Movements Alliance (SSOMA) or government positions.
It is about addressing the urgent economic and security crises facing our country.
It is about saving South Sudan from descending further into the abyss. It is about rescuing our nation from imminent disintegration.
Those who oppose the Tumaini Consensus have had four years—and four extensions—to deliver on the peace agreement, yet there are no tangible results.
They have only deepened our nation’s economic crises and divided our people along ethnic lines, escalating inter- and intra-communal violence.
The only beneficiaries of the current barbaric status quo are a handful of self-serving politicians and their immediate relatives.
Fellow countrymen and women,
The traditional and new elites in our land oppose Tumaini because it represents a new hope to fulfill the broken promises of the Revitalized Agreement on the Resolution of the Conflict in South Sudan (R-ARCSS). Tumaini offers a peaceful way to end the suffering of our people and dismantle the politico-war economy that has taken root in our country.
If forced to make an honest living, these opportunistic leaders would fade away. This is the real reason they oppose the Tumaini Consensus.
Who, in their right mind, would oppose the welfare and prosperity of our civil population? Who would stand against a new hope for our people? Only thieves and rogues, and as our late father of liberation, Commander Dr. John, once said, “thieves and rogues end up outwitting themselves.”
Compatriots,
Let us not be swayed by misinformation; instead, let us unite behind the Tumaini initiative as the most viable, least costly way to end our people’s suffering.
This is the final opportunity for South Sudan’s political elites to prevent the total collapse and fragmentation of our country.
The alternative is simply untenable.
We Must be United!
