In 1818 a German great philosopher Karl Marx said “history repeats itself”.
Wasn’t Dr. Riek Machar first betrayed by the I.O Political Bureau meeting
at Pagak and “NOT” Taban Deng Gai who is rescuing the situation?

*August 31, 2016(Nyamilepedia)* —— At Pagak, the months of November and
December 2015 were busy full of conferences in preparations for the
creation of an important group called “Advance Team” to be selected from
the SPLM/I.O and to be dispatched to Juba. Of course the decision
making-process depends on the key organ of the party which is the
“POLITICAL BUREAU”. But how did the Political Bureau violated the strong
and important security observations from the heart of their former party
leader, Dr. Riek Machar? Machar gave four convincing conditions for which
if not resolved by the government in Juba no advance team should enter
Juba. These were strong life reasoning from a political and military leader
of opposition party. However, these four conditions were discussed and
unfortunately dishonored:

   - To dismiss by the presidential decree the accusations and suspicions
   against Dr. Riek of waging a coup on the 15th of Dec.2013 that
   culminated into the wide spread traditional war. The Political Bureau ought
   to seek a presidential decree to safeguard Riek Machar. This would have
   erased the security threat or attempt before I. O and Dr. Riek arrived in
   Juba.
   - To Lift the state of emergency by a presidential decree
   - To cancel the 28 states created in November 2015 after three months
   from peace agreement on the 7th of August 2015 in Addis-Ababa, Ethiopia.
   - Military cantonment & demilitarization of Juba town, Unity state,
   Upper Nile and Jungli.

Surprisingly, on the first Week of December 2015 the political Bureau
convened disregarded these serious security observations that were
expressed by their Chairman. Instead they anonymously turned their backs
against their leader’s remarks. Consequently, Riek diplomatically remained
quiet but observantly apprehensively at them with invisible censure at
heart.

Were they in a hurry to come to Juba? They immediately selected the Vice
Chairman Lado Gore to lead the Advance team, who then surrendered the task
to Bulldozer, General Taban Debg Gai the Peace Chief Negotiator. The
question now is; who caused the tragedy – General Taban or the Political
Bureau members who dishonored the observation conditions of their
Chairman’s future?

See how the consequence is, even one of the generals who is hypothetically
supposed to accompany his commanding IN-Chief is now dividing and
stunningly dividing SPLM/I.O of Liege State inside his residence in Juba
UNNIMISS Camp into who is for Dr. Riek and who* is* for Gen. Taban, County
by County. This taxonomy was shockingly discovered yesterday the 24th of
August of Nyamilepaedia. The question remains is the I.O Divided or divided
in UNNIMISS Camps? Rationally, there is no qualified and patriotic
leadership of a movement that categorizes its citizens into grouping even
though they belong to different parties just because to gain political
position when the movement is seeking for unity and popularity. General
Ruai Kuol intentionally or otherwise, is fueling the political suffering of
Dr. Riek and the people of South Sudan at large. “Peace is spirit of God”.
It is God Himself. It is not seen as no devil sees God, but devil sees us
because we are sinners. But God observes them. Peace is with “Man” in
creation and goes along with him throughout his life style though he may
not be aware of it. Could anyone including that general knows what kept
Riek alive? His righteousness and the confession he made before the Alter
before God in Pagak on Christmas Prayers of 2015 about the disregarded
position put God’s mercy into him. The Peace in Juba today is for all and
not for specific group or race as Taban made no revolution. The chance of
change is systematically automatic without blood. It is for all southern
Sudanese as it is in the IGAAD-PLUS. It is not even for Nuers or Dinkas,
nor for Shiluk and Anyuak, neither for Equatorians and Bhr-elghazal
citizens. This is the end of political waves in south Sudan. It is far from
envy, personality and from greedy. But its home for unity of South Sudan
forces to be named South Sudan National Force (SSNF), to be loyal to the
country and people to respect them. Garang left us for peace and the
SPLM/SPLA is still being remembered. Twisting and turning it around, like
DC, I.O is like “putting old wine into new bottles”. SSNF shall still
remember the movement and without ANYANYA-1 or the first movement we
started there is no SPLM/SPLA.

Dr. Riek having left with no option, had to truly and publicly declare his
fate before Christian believers on Christmas Day the 25th of December 2015
at Pagak, that his observations were defeated, dishonored, not respected by
his political bureau. And as a result the 28 states Governors were
appointed upon the arrival of the advance team to Juba on the 11th instance.

Now who should be blamed, Taban or the political Bureau that rejected the 4
observations? Aren’t some of the figures in political bureau Nuer elders
who are supposed to support Riek? Had they respected the conditions of
former I.O Chairman no war would have been fought at J1 as no huge number
of deaths from both sides would have been lost? The young ones from both
sides were all southern Sudanese future young generation? Now how would
they face Dr. Riek whose plan they dishonored? What message will they
really tell him? Contrary, may be as I know Riek, he will just peep at them.

It’s on record that when the furious fight broke out at J.1, the
Presidential Palace, between SPLM/SPLA I.O bodyguards of Dr. Riek Machar
and the bodyguards of President Kiir, this fight spread into war in the
capital city and the suburb of Juba. It never stopped until when the I.O
Political Bureau in Juba sat under the Chairmanship of the Vice former
Chairman of Dr. Riek Machar, Hon. Lado Gorey who himself immediately gave
up the Chair to Gen. Taban Deng Gai who in turn courageously declared the
continuation and the implementation of peace agreement under the TGoNU, and
under the chairmanship of President General Salva Kiir Mayardit as
indicated to the agreement. Because the I.O leadership in Juba declared the
continuation of peace agreement as scheduled, President Kiir also announced
seize fire and immediately the war stopped and Dr. Riek was given allowance
of time to come to Juba as Article 6:4 of IGAAD-PLUS indicates. Now who is
to be blamed, Taban who rescued the situation or the Political Bureau that
dishonored Riek 4 Conditions? Supposed Taban never came up with such a
declaration what was going to happen? Shall there be peace now? This
question is left to wise historians who follow up events to give the
correct answer. It is particularly left to those who never witnessed the
scene and living peacefully in Khartoum, Nairobi, Kampala, Addis-Ababa and
abroad. Peace was going to collapse totally. And if peace collapsed who was
going to be blamed, Taban or the political bureau that refused the
condition?

At that moment when Gen.Taban declared the continuation of peace agreement
to save peace and lives of people, we thought those political Bureau
members, ministers and I.O individuals who were cut off in Nairobi, or in
foreign countries were supposed to come out in support for the continuation
of peace in order to pave way for Dr. Riek to come back as Gen. Taban and
President Kiir declared. This in my opinion would have been the wise way
around for the coming back of Machar. Instead some scampered to UNIMISS and
the neighboring countries. Surprisingly, while there, individuals became
press reporters and spokespersons on their own! Moreover, they embarked on
the mission of spread insults in the most inappropriate manner of regaining
power in South Sudan nowadays. Upon Taban’s declaration of IGAAD-PLUS and
the Transitional Government of National Unity (TGoNU) to be continued and
execute the agreement, President Kiir never hesitated but immediately
responded that he will implement the Peace Agreement as it is signed. Then
what else do we the I.O need if the president honors the IGAAD Agreement?

Does this end of political waves? Does anyone know when will the Nile waves
rest or stop? Waves are always geared by wind with spirit of God of life in
them. However, when it rests man drinks from it freely and fish enjoys
nature with secure free movements. Gen Taban Deng has been the right hand
of Dr. Riek serving with honesty and diligence for over 25 years as well as
bearing the burden and suffering being the Chief negotiator for over 3
years. As a true statesman, he served without showing any precursor of
egocentrism to Dr. Riek Machar. His assets were the I.O human facilities.
One wonders what happened to I.O leadership when appointing its cabinet and
hierarchy. The answer is left to former Political Bureau.

The New first Vice President Taban Deng Gai from the waves of the Nile is
not a new political figure who needs to be highlighted. His national
character and humanity is undoubted to every southern Sudanese. He is far
from tribalism and nepotism, greedy of power and envy. His liberal
mindedness and emotional intelligence is unquestionable. As a national
figure he has desired and strived for unity of all Southern Sudanese
fighters with a dream of a dependable South Sudan National Forces (SSNF).

Dr. John Garang left a peaceful SPLM/SPLA. It’s twisting to I.O or DC still
shares the same honor. SSNF shall internationally dignify our country and
boost it among world community. More prominently without Anya-Nya-1, the
first movement 1947-1972 there is no SPLA. By judgment be SSNF is a must be.

Finally, *John 13:11 says – *For he knew who was to betray him; that was
why he said, “Not all of you are clean.”
