Temporary solution for a permanent problem. It seems the plan is to exploit any country we have diplomatic relations with, survive on their humanitarian aid, and those in Juba continue embezzling our resources. Enriching themselves guarantees them power for themselves and their families. A poor person cannot compete, and we're seeing now how it's working in their favor.
It seems the Kiir regime deliberately avoids building our national institutions. They send students abroad for education yet don’t pay our teachers at home.
They bring in foreign forces but refuse to pay our own soldiers. The same applies to every institution.
How can we build a nation when the people meant to educate, protect, and serve it are treated as an afterthought?
@Afrikano26 I don’t see that happening. They have already damaged their reputation internationally. We owe others money we couldn’t pay back. The security situation of the country. This is just a stunt.
No country in history developed through passive endurance. Progress requires unity and holding leadership accountable; our silence serves as consent to neglect and authoritarianism.
Until we redirect our passion from killing each other over internal divisions, cattle, land, or tribalism toward demanding real development, South Sudan will remain trapped in hardship.
Building a nation and demanding better is not about tribes, clans, or elites; it is a collective demand for the good of the whole nation.
@Travelprenuer2 At this point, it's not about education. Even the uneducated, when they want better, they seek more qualified people around them to elevate them. But I'm convinced these kakistocrats deliberately keep the country underdeveloped out of greed and selfishness.
Treating newly arrived public officials like royalty, such as carrying Caretaker Governor Rimbasa Daniel Badagbu on supporters' shoulders in Yambio, fosters the authoritarianism citizens claim to oppose.
Holding leaders accountable requires a cultural shift: citizens must view and treat public officials as employees hired to serve the people, not figureheads put on a pedestal before doing any real work.
@joseph_arike Even if he has everything to offer, we shouldn’t give any leader the opportunity to think he is above anyone or feel like royalty. He isn’t anything but an employee and servant of the public.
