Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>South Sudan\u2019s prominent activist Edmund Yakani has condemned what he calls \u2018use of bizarre and aggressive\u2019 language against South Sudan\u2019s powerful friends such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and Norway.<\/p>\n

This comes a day after information minister and government spokesman Michael Makuei Lueth claimed in statements to journalists on Wednesday that American journalist Christopher Allen who was killed while reporting war between government and rebel forces in 2017 is a \u201cwhite rebel\u201d.<\/p>\n

The controversial South Sudan minister also attacked the UN independent Miraya FM in his statements claiming that the influential radio station is \u201cdisseminating hate and dividing people\u201d of the world\u2019s youngest country.<\/p>\n

In a statement extended to Sudans Post this evening, Yakani who is the Executive Director of Community Empowerment for Progress Organization (CEPO) condemned the use of bizarre and aggressive language against friends of South Sudan and said the comments against Miraya FM are illogical.<\/p>\n

\u201cCEPO is urging our leaders with due respect and honor to abolish violent and disturbing statements that demonstrates aggression, recklessness and bullying against the diplomatic friends of South Sudan,\u201d Yakani said in the statement.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe recent statements attributed to our government spokesman about the UN-funded Radio Miraya and American journalist Christopher Allen\u2019s death is not an impressive language and therefore is an unacceptable sentiment in relation to diplomacy and foreign relations between our country and the world,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Yakani described Miraya FM as \u201cas a radio station with ethics and professional journalists\u201d and further said the language used against the UN radio and the American journalists are both \u201cdemonstration of aggression.\u201d<\/p>\n

The prominent activist further said that the use of reckless language \u201cby some of our political leaders is destructive to our diplomatic relations with others specially our dear friends in America and Europe and does not improve the image of our leadership which has been destroyed by war.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFinally, CEPO condemns the demonstrated attitudes and high sense of aggression and urges our leaders to act responsibly in handling political differences.\u201d<\/p>\n
