Former SPLA General Chief of Staff says the biggest problem of South Sudan is tribal superiority contest where some tribes claim to be better than others.
General James Hoth Mai urges all South Sudanese to desist from tribal superiority aspiration by becoming cowards and respecting one another to reconcile and forgive.
The former army chief told a public lecture forum on forgiveness as route to conflict resolution on Thursday in Juba that South Sudanese should forgive one another or lose the nation.
He acknowledges that South Sudan has numerous problems that can only be solved through forgiveness and change of attitude.
National Legislative Assembly member representing Jonglei State Deng Dau agrees with General Hoth that the country needs self-forgiveness, forgiveness of others and forgiveness of situation for new direction.
Central Equatoria State Land Commission Chairperson who was serving in President Salva Kiir’s office as a Legal Assistant before removal for unknown reasons, Ajonye Perpetua says forgiveness is not only a Christian value, but also a constitutional tool for reconciliation to consolidate peace and unity.
South Sudan government is known for tribal domination and corruption in leadership and senior positions.
