God did not forget anyone and gave them all land. He gave the Americans, Germans, and Tanzanians their lands and here in South Sudan, he gave the Azande, Nuer, Dinka, Kuku, and everybody their land,\u201d Wani said. \u201cThe country was given to us all but when we got independence, some people would come to Wani\u2019s house and say Wani get out of this house because it is now mine. This is not right and is not liberation but destruction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The vice President said the killers are against and want to fail the government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet me tell you straight that most of these wizards who came here to destabilize the Kuku people in Kajo Keji do not even like or support Salva Kiir\u2019s government,\u201d he said. \u201cThat is why they are looking for different ways to fail those of Salva Kiir and Wani Igga and the government but we shall not let them and will pinch their noses when they raise them because we do not want chaos.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wani said citizens should be treated with respect and love for the country to develop.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor this reason, President Kiir is tired of repeatedly hearing that people have been killed because of cattle in Magwi, Lobonok, Mogali, Lokiriri, Bor, and many other places. Even before the killings in Kajo Keji happened, the president was already annoyed and fed up with pastoralist and their cattle leaving their areas and going to cause mayhem in other areas,\u201d he revealed. \u201cThat is why President Kiir issued firm orders to his deputies, governors, and the armed forces that all the cattle driven to Central Equatoria and Eastern Equatoria states return to their places of origin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndeed, there are now no cattle in Magwi, the Madi area, Lobonok, Lokirir, Liria, and up to Mangala and have all left and returned to their areas and the president\u2019s orders have been implemented,\u201d Wani said.<\/p>\n<p>The vice president condoled with the bereaved families and assured them of the government\u2019s commitment to evict cattle from Central Equatoria State.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
