Sub:Are Dinkas born to rule the South Sudan?

 May, 26, 2011

A typical conversation of three friend men of the South Sudan, is recorded here as a tale of leadership i.e. Mr. Dinka, Mr. Nuer, and Mr. Zandi.

Mr. Nuer asked a question like this, “Why do Dinkas claim that they are born to rule the people of South Sudan instead to be ruled?” Yea! It is correct for, “We are well organized over Nuer and other tribes in the South Sudan. Therefore, we are born to rule “Said by Mr. Dinka. Pause--, Mr. Nuer, comes up with surprise, “Do you really believe that Dinka are born to rule other people my friend?” “Yes, I do believe it”. Mr. Dinka answered. Awe! “Are you kidding my friend?” Mr. Nuer asked, “No, I am not, I am telling you the truth”, answered by Mr. Dinka. Mmmm-!!!! “For, how long do you estimate that Dinka are going to rule the South Sudan as a proof of their being born not to be ruled?” Mr. Nuer asked. “Nobody knows my friend only God knows it”, Mr. Dinka answered. That is wonderful! “Is it true that Monyjang are only born to rule the South Sudanese?” Mr. Nuer asked. “Yes, it is”, Mr. Dinka answered. That is astonishing! “Isn’t it an allegation my friend Dinka? “Do you really mean it?” Mr. Nuer asked. “Yes, it is not an allegation, it is the fact that Dinka are born to rule”. Mr. Dinka answered. Amazing! “How do you prove it man?” Mr. Nuer said,

“Wow! “You Nuers, aren’t you wise to recognize the successive leadership that took place in the South Sudan? Look! “What successive leadership do you talk about? Mr. Nuer said. “The successive leadership of Dinka over the South Sudan” Mr. Dinka answered. “Hoo! My goodness! “I do not know that Dinka is ruling over the South Sudan as a result of their superiority”, Mr. Nuer answered. You are pretending, “Didn’t the history prove it to us that Dinka are born to rule, not to be ruled? Mr. Dinka said. “Yes, it tells us nothing about Dinka”, Mr. Nuer replied. “Wow!! “What do know Mr. Nuer, about the history of Dinka in the course of leadership of South Sudan until the coming of Referendum for self determination 2011?” Mr. Dinka asked.  “I think, there is none of it about Dinka”, Mr. Nuer answered. O, my gosh!!! “We, Dinka are lucky, let us enjoy it” Mr. Dinka shouted!! “What happen to you my friend? What do you enjoy? Are you crazy?” No, I am not crazy, “I do not lie I mean it that we, Dinka are lucky, said by Mr. Dinka. “For what way are you lucky?” Mr. Nuer asked. “Because Nuers do not know what goes on in the country till today”, Mr. Dinka answered.  If, we, Nuer knew it, “What do you think will happen to you as Dinka?” Mr. Nuer asked. Mmmm--maa---Yea, I think “Dinka would not be the superior (Lion) tribe of the South Sudan until now”, said by Mr. Dinka. “What? Are you Lion tribe? Mr. Nuer asked. “Yes, we are”, Mr. Dinka replied. “O, my gosh, I am sorry!!! I never heard that Dinkas have met the characteristics of superiority in our Nuer history, for we have converted hundred thousands of Dinkas into our culture and captured many territories by war in our heritage? Mr. Nuer said. Aggressively, “Why Dinka is not a Lion tribe of the South Sudan my Nuer friend?” said by Mr. Dinka. “Nuers always defeated Dinkas, when they fought a good fight according to the history of our country. “Dinka cannot be entitled a Lion Tribe, instead of Nuer,” said by Mr. Nuer. “Of course, you Nuer might think that you can defeat Dinka in tribal war; however, Why Nuers are used to be subordinates of Dinka government according to our political game in the South Sudan? Mr. Dinka said. Or “If you think Nuers are the greatest warriors above all the South Sudan, “Why do we rule over you always particularly Dinka Bor? “Can a superior be entitling to subordinates? Mr. Dinka asked. “No, it cannot come, said by Mr. Nuer. Then, “How do you think that Nuers are stronger than Dinkas until now, otherwise you Nuer will not discover the secret of leadership till the end comes. “What did you said? Till what? “Do you mean the end of the age?” Yes, the end of the time. What time is it? “The time of Dinka leadership”, Wow, it is very ridiculous! “Do you actually think that Dinkas have superiority over the entire community of the South Sudan including Nuer? Mr. Nuer said. “Yes, we do, “Dinkas have great supremacy over you,” said by Mr. Dinka. Ha!! “Can you tell me about your supremacy? Mr Nuer asked. “Alright, I will brief you about our political sovereignty over you according to the dispensation of our leadership in the South Sudan, said by Mr. Dinka.

Intermission, Mr. Zandi kept silence until Mr. Dinka and Mr. Nuer recessed at the point of conflict. Moreover, Mr. Zandi asked Mr. Dinka “Is it impossible for Dinka to be ruled by other South Sudanese? Surely, it will take time for you to overthrow Dinka from the authority of the Southern Sudan, unless you form another movement rather than SPLA, said by Mr. Dinka. “That is Horrific, “You are wrong indeed, Mr. Dinka; you are lost in mind; you are not only the powerful tribe in the South Sudan. Mr. Zandi said. “Nuers are also not only the strongest fighters of the South Sudan” said by Mr. Zandi. “Why do you always think negatively my friends about the war? How many tribes are there in the South Sudan? Are they not strong like you guys?”  Mr. Zandi said. Well, “You Nuer and Dinka are seemed to be warriors because of your too much “illiteracy”. If we come to the standard of education, Equatorians are considered to be the intellectual and wise people over the South Sudan, said by Mr. Zandi. I think, “We, Juba people, the capital city of the South Sudan are viewed as the peaceful community according to the situation of the country”, Mr. Zandi said. No! “Though, you are found the most educated group of the South Sudan, yet you are still less than Nuer or Dinka in comparison”, Mr. Dinka said. “How are we less than you Dinka and Nuer? Mr. Zandi asked, --Mr. Nuer entered, “You are not warriors like Nuer and Dinka, for it is Dinka and Nuer’s war which brought our freedom and liberation today?” Mr. Nuer told to Mr. Zandi. Ho! My gosh, Mr. Zandi said, you Nuer? “Do you accept also the claim of Dinka that they are born to rule instead to be ruled? Mr. Zandi asked Mr. Nuer. “No, I cannot agree with Dinka ideology, because they proud of nothing, Mr. Nuer replied. Then, “Why do you support the superiority of Dinka over us”, Mr. Zandi asked Mr. Nuer. “I am sorry my friend. Mr. Nuer confessed.  “Dinka’s time of leadership is at an hand to be finishing”. We, Nuer will take over the position of first man and the position of first lady in the South Sudan very soon; we shall accomplish our goals very immediately toward leadership, Mr Nuer said to Mr. Zandi. “Why don’t you wait for Ngundeng to come up with power and remove Dinka from the power, and place the Nuer into the seat of the president my friend Nuer? Mr. Zandi said to Mr. Nuer. “How do you know it, if Ngundeng had already remove Dinka from the superiority? For, it is not Ngundeng as a person can change the power, but god of Ngundeng. Mr. Nuer told to Mr. Zandi. Pause, Mr. Dinka moved up and got into conversation, “I don’t think so it can't happen. I think, “Ngundeng cannot force Dinka from the position of top government, because he has also predicted something about our leadership Mr. Dinka told to Mr. Nuer and Mr. Zandi. Wonderful! “Are you going to rule us for another more years in addition to the thirty seven years of these three leaders? Mr. Nuer asked Mr. Dinka. Of course, if it is possible. “The leadership of theHon. Abel Alier, Hon. Dr. John Garang De Mabior, and Hon. Salva Kiir Mayardit, is not enough for Dinka, we shall continue our leadership under Salva Kiir the current president of the Republic of South Sudan, and we are the first in history of SPLA/M. Mr. Dinka said to Mr. Nuer and Mr. Zandi. Contrarily, Mr. Nuer said to Mr. Dinka, your time will be finished definitely after July 9, 2011, “What will you do after July 9, 2011 as Nuer particularly? Mr. Dinka asked Mr. Nuer. “We shall show you that we are the Lion tribe of all the South Sudan, we shall reveal our supremacy to you by all means; and you will know that Nuer is the biggest strong community in the South Sudan instead of Dinka. Mr. Nuer said to Mr. Dinka. Ha! Bi- sumi-lah el Aman el rehim! “You Mr. Nuer and Mr. Zandi, “Can you deny these three leaders were born of Dinka tribe?” Mr. Dinka asked.  Surely, “We cannot deny the truth that these people are Dinkas”, both Mr. Nuer and Mr. Zandi said, “Do you agreed with me? Mr. Dinka asked them. “Yes, we do agree”, Mr. Nuer and Mr. Zandi. Then let me tell you more about Dinka’s confidential policy”.

Mr. Dinka start to tell his friends a briefly history about the time of Dinka leadership. Since,  1973, Honourable Abel Alier ruled the Local Attorney government as the president of the South Sudan until 1983, then the “kokora” took place and the Southern Sudan was divided into three regions. E.g Bahr AlgazelEquatoria, and UpperNile.  Yet, before the end of 1983, Col. Dr. John Garang De Mabior rebelled against the ruling power. Jafer Mohammed Nimeri was the president of the Sudan in that time.  Within the same year, Dr. John signed a deal with president Mangistu Hailee Mariam, the president of Ethiopia. John swore (oath) that his country will be a member of Communist countries when he captures (over throws) the government of the Sudan. Dr. John and his entire communist military trainees ruled their SPLA/M for 10 years under the laws and rules of Communism. Unfortunately, the strong dictator man, Mangistu Hailee Mariam was overthrown and shamefully defeated by strong Revolutionary military movement of Eretria and Tigray in 1991. Dr. John Garang made a good decision on behalf of South Sudanese; he signed the Comprehensive Peace Agreement with government of the Sudan, though he had deceived Abyie, Darfur, and Blue Nile. Unfortunately, Dr. John died in air crush after 21 days of PCA. Next, General Salva Kiir Mayardit succeeded him as well. “Is this not the sign of superiority of Dinka over the South Sudan my friends?” Mr. Dinka asked Mr. Nuer and Mr. Zandi Yea, “You are right Mr. Dinka, “It is a long time leadership”, both Mr. Nuer, and Mr. Zandi accepted the history.

Finally, Mr. Nuer said, if it is not possible through casting a ballot, “We, the Nuer shall take it by force whether you like or not”. Arrogantly, “We don’t scary of any tribe in the South Sudan including Dinka,” Mr. Nuer said, “Nuer will not forgive the South Sudanese again at this time like before.” Otherwise, we shall destroy all of you unless you surrender to Nuer. Mr. Nuer was disappointed by long period of Dinka leadership over the South Sudan. But Mr. Zandi convinced Mr. Nuer that Nuers are the right people to rule the South Sudan because they are unlike Dinka in culture and leadership, Nuer accepted the minor tribe to live with them, though they fight them. Nuer never allows his relative to torture guests at their homes because of tribal war. Nuer supplies the guest with food, Nuer never demolish the peace they sign with enemies. Nuers like to compromise with people that fears them. Mr. Zandi made a good conclusion of the proposition. Mr. Nuer went with the hope of winning. The three friends went back to their normal relationship.

Yours sincerely,
