PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS OF THE CENSUS RESULTS IN SOUTHERN SUDAN BY TRIBES.
- Details

- Written by Pachodo.org News Room
The analysis is confined to the ten largest tribes as the census suggests. These tribes form more than three-quarters (76.7) of the population of Southern Sudan. In fact, two tribes, the Dinka and the Nuer, form more than 50% (56.1) of the population of Southern Sudan.
A number of assumptions have been made in regards to the population of Juba, Malakal and Wau towns. It has been assumed that the population of each of the three is comprised of two-thirds Bari, Chollo and Balanda, respectively. Northern Bahr El Ghazl is assumed to be entirely Dinka despite a sizeable presence of the Luo tribes there. This assumption is balanced out by not including the Marial-Bai Dinka in Western Bahr El Ghazal. Also, the presence of Moro tribe in Maridi town is not taken into account.

Who will believe this census? Okay! believe it! Wait a minute! Look! This is just a media and we can write whatever we want though it is a lie! Where is the truth? This is not a genuine census; cancel it and redo it again! Southern Sudan? No more Salva Kiir as a president of Southern Sudan in 2011! We know who could lead Southern Sudan into a better futur and we don't mind even if he may be from any of the minor tribes of Southern Sudan! Though we are Dinka of Warrap,
we honestly disagree with Kiir's leadership! Ask yourself this question: Why doesn't Kiir has a genuine office in Khartoum since he is the first Vice President of Sudan? Fear and selfishness will not lead our children to the promised future!

This is just a trash paper design by an ill-minded individual. If that the case there will no be Soth Sudan as one entity let every run him self as an independent entity. South has to divide its self to many countries. Collo can't accept this stupid behavior. Collo is than Dinka in Jonglei and Upper Nile, and Unity combined. This is a lie, Collo Will not take it and Collo must seek it indpendent as an independent entity Now.
