‘There is no humanity here,’ says UN officer about South Sudan

Image
By: Ilya Gridneff Associated Press A heavily armed UN convoy walks through the streets of Malakal, the capital of oil-producing Upper Nile state. House after house has been burned to the ground. Hospital patients have been shot by armed rebels while lying in their beds. Dozens of corpses litter the streets. “This is about revenge now. There is no humanity here,” said Col. Jan Hoff, an officer in Norway’s army who has served in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. South Sudan, he said, is the worst he’s seen. “It’s absolutely horrific,” Hoff said this week as he led a heavily armed UN convoy through the streets of Malakal, the capital of oil-producing Upper Nile state. “This is tribe against tribe. In Syria it was foreign fighters against the government. Here I don’t think it’s about the government.”  A corpse nearby is already a skeleton wrapped in a soldier’s uniform. Hoff said he counted 30 bodies on a recent day. A colleague had counted 7...

Kapsoya Estate

Image
By chiefabong11@gmail.com Kapsoya Estate is the third ranked best in Kenya when it comes to the way it was planned and it is a home to rich, middle class and poor people around east Africa, compared to Kipkaren centre, Huruma and Maili ine Kapsoya estate emerges to be the first in Eldoret the way the houses are arranged. Since it is the best, it has his disadvantages as well, during the rainy season the road leading to Kapsoya and any street in the estate impassable, compared to Kipkaren centre which all the streets are tarmacked, there is no single street in Kapsoya which is tarmacked, but to your surprise the planning map from municipal council of Eldoret shows that all the roads leading to Kapsoya estate are well tarmacked. Someone will fail to understand why the map is reading so when in real sense it is not. If you see Kapsoya from far you will admire to be staying there but just visit Kapsoya you will find out that there is no singe existing drainage to drain water during the...

about SPLM Former Detainees

Image
By Bayak Chuol Puoch   I am very disappointed seeing SPLM Former Detainees to be neutral in this conflict while we have lost many lives in South Sudan as the killing is still continuing in the country. The SPLM Former Detainees were with Dr Riek Machar and his team to reformed the party as they mentioned last December and we the South Sudanese people thought that, these SPLM Former Detainees were seeking to reform the party. This came out as a result of the ethnic killing in the country. This has shown us that SPLM Former Detainees were not happy because they lost their positions in the government upon the reshuffling and that was why they have been against the government of South Sudan. The SPLM Former Detainees were coming out in a big number on December 6 th 2013 against President Salva Kiir Mayardit and the South Sudanese thought these people would bring developments in this country as they were not happy with the regime. The SPLM Forme...
