The Sudan Tribune reports that South Sudan’s
rebel forces led by Riek Machar have protested the government’s acquisition of
more weapons from China. According to the report, South Sudan has received $38
million worth of missiles, grenade launchers, mating guns and ammunition. The
Tribune quotes Defense Minister Kuol Juuk as confirming the purchase and
saying, “My role is to defend the nation. That means I have to arm my army. The
army has to be equipped.” According to rebel spokesperson James Gatdet Dak,
“Well, our leadership sees this unfortunate development as a preparation for
more violence by the regime…Instead of trying to correct their failures and
deliver the badly needed basic services to the suffering South Sudanese people,
the leadership in Juba is bent to further destroy the country.” The Tribune
quotes Dak as accusing the government of prioritizing hiring foreign
mercenaries and acquiring weapons. Dak questions the government spending $3
million a day to “fight against democratic political opponents while hundreds
of citizens are dying every day because of hunger and curable diseases.”The US
and Europe do not sell weapons to the government of South Sudan.Source: (Sudan

We at Universal + Multiversal Divinity in Diversity believe that serving others in Diversity is the only assurance of our security and prosperity!
ReplyDeleteAs such, our security and prosperity is based on how best we serve others in diversity (bio-diversity, socio-economic diversity and ecological diversity).
The African Civilization is based on this fundamental principle of our shared Divinity in serving others in Diversity.
The current set of terrorists posing as leaders and yet terrorizing our African Civilization need to return to serving others construct which is to provide nutrition, clothes, shelter, enterprises instead of being the dumping ground for toxic biological, chemical and nuclear waste and guns that kills and destroys our communities.
We need to encourage the Divine Feminine Leadership where our women, youths lead us to secruity and prosperity.
All the geriatric and demonic men should be retired or sheltered in African Union Justice and Prison Networks. We need to retire and shelter our demented geritatric men in social prisons where we feed them peace, security and Divine living.
We have to stop wasting our future on thee foolish goons! Let us have our African Divine Feminine Lead Africa into prosperity and Security.

I remain your sincerely
