Maintaining soft border between the Ngok Dinka and Rezeigat
Tuesday, 10 July 2012 04:20 Muna Tesfai Interviews >>> . For decades, the Arab nomadic community of Rezeigat from the North of Sudan and the Dinka Ngok and Malual from Aweil North East, have been able to trade and graze their cattle in each others land. But that free movement became restricted when South Sudan attained its independence from Sudan in July 2011, and subsequently tried to demarcate its borders. Despite this political development, the Rezeigats and the Dinkas, say they want to continue their age old relationship and maintain a soft border. USAID an American organization, is actively engaged in conflict mitigation activities in the area to support these communities co-exist peacefully and exercise orderly seasonal migration of pastoralists across the northern frontier. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "South Sudan Info - The Kob" group.
