It seems we are deviating from our agenda. What I expected was that the Chiefs of our land, Dinka and Nuer, would sit on one side and address our grievances against the soldiers. I differ from previous speakers… I believe this is not like a traditional war using spears. In my view, our discussion should not concentrate on the chiefs of Dinka and Nuer, but on the soldiers, who are the ones who are responsible for beginning this conflict. “When John Garang and Riek Machar [leaders of rival SPLA factions] began fighting did we understand the reasons for their fighting? When people went to Bilpam [in Ethiopia] to get arms, we thought they would fight against the Government. We were not expecting to fight against ourselves. I would like to ask Commanders Salva Mathok & Salva Kiir & Commander Parjak [Senior SPLA Commanders] if they have concluded the fight against each other. I would ask if they have ended their conflict. Only then would we begin discussions between the chiefs of Dinka and Nuer. “The soldiers are like snakes. When a snake comes to your house day after day, one day he will bite you.

Only a small number of cases was confirmed in the beginning because only 11 tests were carried out due to the shortage of the diagnostic kits. There were no deaths reported at the beginning of the pandemic, but the public perception in Somaliland was that the virus was more widely present than the official figures indicated and was spreading. The government of Hargeisa implemented a full lockdown from April 2020 until July 2020. The lockdown largely affected government offices, public and private schools, universities, and business located in those areas. The government also ordered the closure of mosques and religious schools (madras). However, the government rescinded its decision to close mosques due to the opposition from religious leaders. Likewise, there was a strong pressure for allowing the continued use of khat (a local stimulant to be consumed in social groups) by local people. However, the government, in consultation with the local khat importers, banned the khat coming from Ethiopia although the Ethiopian airline flights to Hargeisa continued.

With Malakal as its capital, the state has 13 counties with Akoka being the most recent. Upper Nile shares borders with Southern Kordofan and Unity in the west, Ethiopia and Blue Nile in the east, Jonglei in the south, and White Nile in the north. The state has four main tribes: Shilluk (mainly in Panyikang, Fashoda and Manyo Counties), Dinka (dominant in Baliet, Akoka, Melut and Renk Counties), Jikany Nuer (in Nasir and Ulang Counties), Gajaak Nuer (in Longochuk and Maiwut), Berta (in Maban County), Burun (in Maban and Longochok Counties), Dajo in Longochuk County and Mabani in Maban County. Security and Political History Since inception of the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA), Upper Nile State has witnessed a challenging security and political environment, due to the fact that it was the only state in Southern Sudan that had a Governor from the National Congress Party (NCP). (The CPA called for at least one state in Southern Sudan to be given to the NCP.) There were basically three reasons why Upper Nile was selected amongst all the 10 states to accommodate the NCP’s slot in the CPA arrangements.

  • Notes on Sudan
    Notes on Sudan KHARTOUM, Sudan April :2000 By Marc Michaelson Western media coverage of Sudan revolves around two themes evil and hopelessness. The country is portrayed as an international pariah, unruly Islamic fundamentalists consorting with sordid characters like Osama Bin Laden, train- ing terrorists, wreaking havoc and exporting destabilization. Internally, Sudan is wracked by intractable civil war and the region's other endemic woes: food inse- curity, chronic poverty, violence and environmental degradation. Since independence in 1956, Sudan's civil war has proceeded in on-again off- again fits-and-starts. The scale of human devastation is mind-boggling. More than two million Sudanese have died due to war-related causes; an estimated six million have been displaced. Under Lieutenant Colonel Omar Hassan al-Bashir, the government has imposed Shari'a law and declared jihad against the Chris- tians and animists of the south. Repression is rife, the economy is in perpetual free-fall, and the civil war continues with no end in sight. There is therefore partial truth to the nasty images depicted in the press. But that is only a piece of the picture. The Sudanese are a friendl gentle people, considered the most hospitable in the region (some say, the world). The type of Islam traditionally practiced in Sudan is quite liberal and tolerant, far from fun- damentalist. The government deserves much of the criticism it attracts, but it is hardly representative of Sudanese people or culture. As one friend put it: "The nicest people always get stuck with the worst governments." I set out to discover this "other Sudan." I hoped to draw a personal picture to balance the negative imagery.
