The death of the Dinka Ngok paramount chief Kuol Deng Majok comes as big shock to the Abyei community, this man who in the worst of times never deserted his people nor his homeland, always leading by example and always putting Abyei first.
He ensured the security of the few residents who preferred to stay and in times of bombings and killings led his people to nearby Warrap state.
for me personally, his presence gave constant hope that things would be OK, and that we the Abyei community were through him present as well in our homeland.
Now things are not looking very well, and as the sons of Abyei die one by one, I SHALL NOT let the fire of hope ebb, the questions of when and for how long this will ever stop ceaselessly drums through my brain.And i am left with doubts on the success of a referendum of the Dinka Ngok, and its impact on the people, Whose support we will have, and the fr-enemies we as a people need to look out for.
I Must say this is a time for self restrain and calculative calm,,let us in these times opt to be wise for the sake of our people.It is the time to gather our strength because when it 's the fallen mans turn to stand up, he surely stands tallest .
that day is dawning, when Abyei will be free and our children will play in the streets and hear the tales and the struggles of our people..it will sure dawn .but until then let our clans remain united.
our wish is one, our vision one, and so must our voice be one!
Aluta Continua!
our freedom will come to be.One Day
