The republican decree read out on South Sudan Broadcasting Corporation
(SSBC), announced the appointment of Yournew Wol Kuot as the newly
appointed governor of Aweil. The decree did, however, fail to mention
the reason Governor Deng was removed.
Deng, who is from the same area as Awan is said to be a close
supporter of Gen. Paul Malong Awan.
A local politician who chose to remain anonymous said the move might
have been connected to the recent removal of the Sudan People’s
liberation Army (SPLA) Paul Malong Awan, Gen. Chief of Staff from the
military active post due to his close alignment with Malong.
“There is also a fear that President Kiir would replace the 3rd
Infantry Division commander, Gen. Deng Wol if Paul Malong Awan, who
recently reconciled with the President, continued to travel to Aweil
State because Wol is also a close friend to him," he added.
Another fear is the formation of a military coalition to use 3rd
division forces and the notorious Mathiang Anyor militia against
President Kiir if Awan is allowed to go to
Aweil.

Well, president Kiir is making mistake after mistake, but he will
loose if he goes against leaders who opposed him specially Dinkas. Mr.
President, please reexamine your motives or executive power. Remember
frustration and tension are building up and you need to be careful.

Mr. President Salva Kiir,
There’s a great need for watch out very carefully! Thing are
running well on your behalf. Who’s really creating this ideal? What’s
really making you running after the dearly patriotic fellows and leave
the real rebels occupying your J1? This is a terrible mistakes in the
making. Take a deep breath and think outside the box.

Dinka-defender-general and Kuah Native,
Why complaining? Kiir is implementing National Dialogue, I thought
you would appreciate Kiir Move and call us to join you. If you came
out with those words, then what do you expect me to say? Dinka never
known rebellion? or ba duol jaani dak (i will destroy dinka unity) as
said by Prophet Ngundeng?
