September 9, 2017 (JUBA) - A presidential aide Saturday said that
President Salva Kiir has directed all government institutions to
cooperate with the United Nations mission in the country, stressing
that the young nation was herself a member of the global organization.
“The government has no problem with the presence of UNMISS (United
Nations Mission in South Sudan). We know this is not the first time
our problem have dealt with the United Nations. The United Nations has
been with our people for a very long time. During the war of
liberation struggle, the United Nations and western countries led by
the United States played a very important role,” a presidential
adviser on military affairs”, told Sudan Tribune on Saturday
Daniel Awet Akot said the government and the people cannot forget the
support received during dark days from the United Nations and the
international community.
"What we are saying now is that: yes, there are challenges but they
can be overcome through the same spirit of cooperation and
understanding we received from the United Nations and others during
the war," Akot said.
Government spokesperson Minister Michael Makuei Lueth recently said
they want to renegotiate UNMISS mandate before its renewal next
December. He further accused the peacekeeping operation of causing
situations in order for their mandates to be renewed.
“We are talking of revisiting the mandate because once the UN comes to
your country, they will never write one day that this country is at
peace we [the UN] are going away. They will continue all the time to
write there is insecurity so that they continue to stay,” said Lueth.
The minister also said the mandate of the Regional Protection Force
(RPF) also needs to be reviewed because they were supposed to be
deployed at a time when the forces of Riek Machar were in Juba.
Meanwhile, the UN Special Representative in South Sudan, David Shearer
said in a statement broadcast by the state owned South Sudan
Broadcasting Corporation following a meeting with President Salva Kiir
on Thursday that the discussion he had with South Sudanese leader
focused on working relations between the government and the UN Mission
in South Sudan.
Shearer described the meeting as a ‘positive’ discussion, covering the
UNs cooperation, deployment of the Regional Protection Force and
patrols along the volatile Juba-Yei and Juba and Bor roads.
The top UN official in the country said the main message that came out
of the meeting was to strengthen cooperation between the government
and the United Nations mission in the country.
“We agreed that cooperation was necessary at all levels between the UN
and the government and the President asked me to come back and have a
chat with him next week before I go off to the UN General Assembly
which is in a couple of weeks’ time. So it was a very good meeting and
very good to hear the President’s impressions of what is happening on
the ground and the continuing cooperation between the UN, UNMISS and
the government of South Sudan,” said Shearer.
John Andruga Duku, Director for International Organizations at the
ministry of foreign affairs said the meeting marks the beginning of
improved working relations between UNMISS and the government.

Ayuieu,
You fellows including President Salva Kiir & his bunch of

US, the UK, their UN & NGOs) on earth, on the disguise of their damn
*UN, humanitarian aid, donations, peacekeeping & their damn human
rights business scams* Do you fools & President Kiir know as to why

Dear Hon Daniel Awet, it is not UN that is the problem. It is all
about appeasing and satisfying US interests. If you want the war to
end in South Sudan inorder for UNMISS, and RPF to leave give US more
concession oil business and reconstruction contract in South Sudan.
The war will end in just a month. That was what Angola did to US and
UNITA and Jonas Savimbi died out in Africa.

Keep ignoring the US at your/our own peril. President Museveni
gave US what it wants in Uganda and LRA is now a thing of the past.
Sudan gave US its underwear and US doesn’t mind its human rights
records in Darfur, Blue Nile, Nuba Mountains, Sudan support to
SPLA-IO, Sudan support to Al shabab, etc.

It is important UNMISS know its mandate on operations in the
country in the first place. It is not in the country on the invitation
o the leadership of the government. Cooperation between the two should
not come at the expense of the death of citizens that the government
has failed to give to them security. The relationship between them
must be cautiously,and jealously guarded.

Allow the US to screw us. I hope you know the law of the first
night or " JUS PRIMA NOCTE ". The US wants to be the first super power
South Sudan should have slept in bed with in its first day after its
independence on the 9th July 2011 to date. Let the US have contract
for some important big projects in South Sudan please or else one day
President Salva and all his J1 staff will leave J1 in shit.

Let the international community analyzes and look at the problem
of South Sudan that the worse person in the country herself is Salva
Kiir and his tribesmen, who say this today and tomorrow will say
another one contrary to what they have said yesterday. Kiir and his
tribesmen likes to sit on the chair of presidency so that they can own
the properties of the country lonely without other natives.

Many people says that US doesn’t like Riek Machar because they
knew that Riek Machar is an intellectual and well educated and at the
same time a Scientist,that is why they don’t like him to lead the
country South Sudan instead they like the stupid,primitive,
incompetent Salva Kiir to lead so that he may offer US more deals in
South Sudan. It is really true, if Riek Machar be a
President,South>>>>>

>>will like London within ten years only. But this issue is not
liked by US,they preferred to do their business on our resources and
doesn’t like its people. Let us not compete for nothing, USA and its
organization UN likes only to rule South Sudan for many years and
collect its resources, however, the only chance is to let Riek Machar
come and lead us so the we and US also shall get their needs

Riek the false Messiah
the man who sparked this tribal bloodletting was Riek Machar,
the gap- toothed rebel officer who matched the qualification of the
expected Nuer Messiah, the leader of legend who had come to liberate
his tribesmen from the predatory Dinka.the book me against my brother

it didn’t hurt that Riek was an immediate descendant of a
renowned prophet of the Nuer divinity Teny- hence Riek’ third name at
his Spartan compound in Nassir,Riek stoked the dual imperative of his
rule. on the Wall of his bare mud hut,there was a primitive painting
of an African snake, but sitting on his desk,almost alone and surely
for every one to see,was a thick good news Bible,

embossed on the cover with gold lettering, the close
proximity of the snake and the Bible- both tokens of southern Sudanese
spiritual strength would be necessary if he was to fulfill the
prophecy and totally defeat the Dinka, I interviewed Riek soon after
the Bor massacre before the tribal spirit of the Dinka had woken and

If possible, let US and other international community deal away
with Salva Kiir and bring Dr Riek Machar to the chair so that Nuer
will not revenge on what was done against them by Dinka. If the UN has
stopped Ugandan forces,Kenya and Egypt who support Salva Kiir to
retain in presidency,then war will stop within one day and beg Riek
Machar to forgive him on his wrongdoing.

You cooperate or you don’t cooperate is up to your mind. UN will
continue doing what they are coming for. Despite your fake directive
you normally give to those who love money by bribing them UN doesn’t
need money.
