“Kiir is corrupt and abandons SPLM Vision”Juba, September 30, 2013 (SSNA) — President Kiir abandoned the liberation struggle Vision and Mission and adapted NCP’s.
“The President of the Republic of South Sudan Salva Kiir Mayardit has abandoned the vision and mission of the SPLM and sold his soul to the NCP”, the Lawyers for democracy in South Sudan (LDSS) declared.
“The current actions and missions of the President Kiir to Khartoum showed that the President is infiltrated by the NCP and decided to implement the programs of the NCP in the South Sudan and not the programs to benefit the two countries’ citizens. We call upon the people of South Sudan to be vigilant and demand the truth”, the LDSS continues.
On corruption, Lawyers for Democracy in South Sudan are demanding “thorough investigation of all the contracts implemented by the GOSS since 2005 to present and Dura (grain) scandal, Oil revenues and audit the Central Bank. President Kiir, families, cronies, bodyguards and business associates should be included in this investigation. The investigation body should be a neutral body mandated by the parliament with international credibility”. They added,
“Kiir should come clean instead of accusing the Ex Ministers of corruption. Where was he when the Ex Ministers were stealing? If they stole any? Yes, corruption is there however the ex ministers should not be used as a scapegoat to hide serious corruption cases” declared the group.
Kiir “has a tendency of blame game just like what he declared on the gallant forces of SPLA who fought for the freedom of our people accusing them of corruption. The same with the security situation in Jonglei and elsewhere Kiir blamed it on the SPLA while he is the Commander in Chief, when is Kiir going to take responsibility as a leader?” asked the group.
