Red Card Movement is a Facebook organization which was created by the members of SPLM IO, NAS, SSUF etc under the auspices of Western Countries.The organization is being funded by TROIKA. The initiators of RCM were given $11,045000 by their sponsors, the Western Countries. The imaginary objective of Red Card Movement is to implement the American's agenda of regime change through demonstration. The another objective of RCM is to completely throw the Revitalized Peace Agreement into the dustbin thus taking the country back to the war.
Red Card Movement has planned to launch the demonstration inside South Sudan and abroad on 16th May 2019. The justification behind the planned demonstration is to oust the democratically elected president from power. The members of RCM who are mainly members of various armed rebel groups attempted to copy the Arab Spring Protest thinking that they would be successful in ousting the democratically elected government of Salva Kiir, like the way it has happened in Arab Countries.
After failing to achieve the regime change agenda through military means, the rebels and their sponsors decided to apply Plan B which is the peaceful protest without taking into account that ousting the elected government through undemocratic means is an impossible task. The rebels and the Western Countries should keep in mind that regime change in South Sudan can neither be achieved through peaceful protest nor military means but it can be achieved it through elections.
Therefore, the members of RCM and their sympathizers need to be fully prepared for the consequences that they will face in their mission. Ousting the elected government through undemocratic means is like launching the war against Almighty God.
I am appealing to the members of Red Card Movement and all the hold out groups to completely erase the " regime change agenda" and join us in the peace implementation. Any citizen who wants regime change in South Sudan must prioritize peace because peace will enable him or her achieve regime change through voting not through protest or military means. The members of RCM must also refrain from shouting the slogan " SALVA KIIR MUST GO" at the bars in the foreign countries. They should wait for general elections instead of misleading the public in the media.
