Our approach to this essentail need for our better life and brightent future,is this is not an organization wherer we need to convince people to joint.If you belong to any group mentioned above then you're Luo, nobody on this earth need to be convinced to belong to his/her ethnicity or to accept his/her mother as his/her parent. Even if you're not Luo, learning the unified language may benefit you than a person who is Luo and dosen't learn the language,so it's a work of every body.That's why it involve Luo in general not only the Sudanese. It's time to think out side the box, we can't sit aside / watch and expect others to do things for us and I think the events in Anakdir, Abanim, and Attar has proved the theory that why I should protect somebody who don't or even think to protect himself, even if they are in uniform they're some people sons and daughters, wherer are yours? So there is not leaders and followers all are in and every body has a role to play. I'm just one among many who think it's time to think about the future.
