I can’t see any reasons for any one of us to believe that we have been cheated, infect not that much cheating, we are happy to retain Abyei capital and bring back our people of nine Ngok Dinka chiefdoms to the family.

The oil fields are not an issue. What goes around will come around, tomorrow you will repeat the same case about the whole boundaries between the south and the north, and I believe NCP government will not accept any kind of border that favour the south, but the same court will give you more than one you miss, so be patience and the world watching every steps.

We better celebrated and concentrate on our main agenda and prioritise the security of our citizens to protect the CPA over the next eighteen months before referendum.

The counter party now excited moving like crocodile in the river because of the oil fields of Higlig, but who knows some times the interpretation of the law can smile you and shortly can change your face and your tone.

I personally happy to be reunite with our brothers of Ngok Dinkas, they are  powerful, good thinkers and they know more than us about the people of the north over the past century. Their contribution will help the south.

I suggest that any politician from Abyei unwelcome by the north this time should be the right man to be given a power over the region to mobilise the citizens for the next challenges.

We are proud of our delegations that have proved to the world that we are not after the oil but we are after dignity, freedom and the law to reunite us with our brothers. The Arab said birds fall upon their colours and we are now doing it, but inturn they are not, what a contradiction!

Many of the Arab who have no Idea about how the Sudanese African are important were rushing and happy that we should go right now simply because Higlig oil fields  already confirmed in their pockets, plus border that have no barriers between disputing parties according to the court verdict.

My friends what they are calling for is already their and no back ward at all. They better think how to find workers for harvest in Gazera, Gadarief, their people are lazy they can’t afford work that have been done by Africans before, unless they get rid off Jalabyiea wear and Morkob shoe. They talked about port but they should be remind that Somalia has a port but at the bottom ladder in term of the development.

The others resources of the south can build a great nation fearful over the world if our leaders adopted humbleness in the future. The development of south can reach the sky within a short period if we believe in team work. I mean to say all tribes must feel that they are participating in government at both levels. Any group should be given freedom to choose their leaders whom they believe can represent them without fear or interfering from the decisions makers. This is the only way that can please our citizens, and as a result we will put the smile on our faces.
 
Our resources can create ocean to link the south with others world. And because of their head strong (Mondokoro) we will build an international wall to prevent us seeing their faces again.

The southerners who linked themselves to north are warned to change their minds before the deadline; they are most welcome to be amongst their brothers in the south. NCP government will not care about you any more after the court verdict and you know Arab always will slaughter the nearest people to them if they were found not capable to bring more politicians to join the party, or not able to report their brothers to the security. Take my advice seriously otherwise your money will be divided for disabled in future.

They were relying on you in the past to tackle the referendum for unity, but now many of them become conservatives of separation and even asking south to go before the scheduled time. Please come home and nobody will ask you silly question at all, we are all brothers.
