WHO IS TO BLAME?

By Abunerry. 

Who is this young boy in the wilds?

Crawling in the dust, crutches in pain

Through the cattle, through dung, through silence

Why is he in the kraal but not in the school?

Why is his future impending, left in the dark?

Who is to blame?

 

He owns no books, uniforms, or pens

Only groomed tied to his bones

They deny him the basic needs

Yet, he serves, yet he survives, yet he walks

I ask

Who is to blame?

 

Why is silence louder than justice?

Why do we build kraals but not schools?

Why must children grow where cattle sleep?

Are we raising hope or burying it in the dungeons?

Tell me,

Who is to blame?

 

What if there were safety?

What if there were schools?

What if there were hearts that care?

Would this boy walk alone in the dust covered with thistles?

Would his tears speak louder than ours would?

Wait,

Who is to blame?

 

Will there be a stop to Junub’s wailing?

Who will protect us, the broken, the disabled, the forgotten?

Are the kraals now our only destiny?

Did we choose to carry such a load?

Honestly,

Who is to blame?

 

Let me ask you

Not as a poet

Not as a witness

But as a man standing before you


Whom do you think is to blame?

The Parents?

The Government?

You?

Hey!

WHO WILL BE THE FIRST TO STOP BLAMING AND START BUILDING?

MAGWI COUNTY UNDER CATTLE ATTACKS AGAIN.

    File Image July 11, 2025. To the Commissioner,  Magwi County Magwi County Maize Crops under Cattle Attack Again I am writing to inform you that Magwi County is once again facing an attack by cattle driven by the Dinka Balalo of Uganda. This is a direct result of an evacuation in response to the President's executive order aimed at stopping cattle-related conflicts in the Acholi region of Northern Uganda. As you may recall, the last conflict in Magwi County, which occurred in February, claimed lives and was not an isolated incident. Similar conflicts have recurred since 2014, when the Dinka Balalo from Bor forcefully entered Magwi County and the Equatoria region. Hon, you and the Magwi County community need to be aware of the potential resettlement of cattle in our lands. Our county's livelihood depends on its fertile soil, whereas the Dinka Balalo's survival relies on milk production. I urge you and your security team to remain vigilant and prevent any cattle ...

ESTABLISH A SEPARATE AND INDEPENDENT DINKA KINGDOM WITHIN THEIR TERRITORIES.” Advocate Kenyi Advises President Kiir

Advocate & human rights lawyer Kenyi YA Kenyi said that Salva Kiir has long abandoned the national interest of South Sudan and instead chosen to pursue a narrow and divisive tribal agenda. From the time he was appointed deputy—based on tribal considerations—during the liberation struggle to all his subsequent roles within the regime, Kiir has consistently implemented policies that prioritize the interests of one ethnic group: the Jieng (Dinka), at the direct expense of the other 63 tribes of South Sudan.   Through his actions and appointments, he has systematically planted the seeds of division, ethnic discord, and mistrust among our people. Under his leadership, South Sudan—a sovereign nation built by the collective sacrifice of 64 tribes—has been reduced to what increasingly appears to be an absolute Jieng Kingdom, with Salva Kiir acting as its self-declared King.   If Kiir remains committed to advancing his tribal project, then we are left with no option but to gran...

IN HIS FOOTSTEPS: The Characters of A Leader's Heart

Meta AI "This is a faithful saying: If a man desires the position of a bishop, he desires a good work." 1 Timothy 3:1-7 Devotion 10. July 10, 2025 God's Design for Leadership   God alone is omniscient and sovereign. He designed leadership with specific character traits, appointing humanity to steward the world on His behalf. As we progress through Scripture, we observe God's design for leadership and the character traits required of each individual.   For example, He denied Saul leadership despite the pressure from the people. He chose David from among Jesse's children because David met His criteria, possessing the character and qualities worthy of leadership. In leadership, there are specific characteristics that leaders must embody to lead God's people. Paul listed these qualities in his letter to Timothy, emphasizing integrity, humility, and servanthood as essential for leading the church of God.   The Contrast Between God's Design and the Worl...
