It was a good fortune for me to one of the young men who met Mama Aweil communities before she sailed off in the Ocean of disunity where inhabitants eat each others. She has been the united mother of the devastated refugees of dinka ethnic group of northern Bahr El Ghazal abroad.
Mama Aweil communities is diagnosed and found to have a complicated disease that cause Disunity which is much serious than HIV. The result show symptoms like Malual, Paliet, Ayat, Abiem,kongdeer, and many others including the newly discover symptom called Luo.
The cause of the disease is unknown specially in the current progress in education and unity that Mama Aweil communities is going through. Her name become fame and all her decedents are every where united. According to some doctors the cause is attribute to more illiterates, lack of understanding to global World and seriously mentality of tribalism and nepotism.
As i step in, Mama Aweil communities scream ' my sons - my sons - my sons' and then lean on her back. She keep silent for a few minutes and start talking to me.
My brothers and sisters the following are the words that i was able to understand
" Here my sons, i brought you out of the darkness living today a luxurious life and speaking foreign language that your ancestors never dream of it. Thanks God my sons ,for you are save and have best opportunities of the life than your brothers and sisters in your origin land. Today some of you say iam useless and old enough to survive and hold you between my arms like i have been doing before in happiness and sorrow.
She hold my hands firmly and said;
" My sons; listen to me carefully, before they take me away. Be united in my proud name 'AWEIL'. Be loyal to it and respect it. Where ever you go my sons keep it fame and people will accept and respect you. You will be serve well and your decedents will never be called foolish majority. My sons where ever you go in the universe show people my valuable customs and traditions . Be proud of them and inherit them to your decedents. Tell people my sons, about "malual dance", "Kuin Diong"and keep practicing them to be learn by your children. Don't forget my sons to tell people about your ancesters who struggle to make me exist.
My sons; iam today fame, respected, strong and known by people who even didn't see me. My name is now aday a good pass for you. I advice you my sons; keep vigilant and united , some of your brothers are greedy of leadership and fame. They are irresponsible and have poison toungue full of tribalism and nepotism . Some of them my sons; went out blaming others for not taking care of me while what they are actually doing bury me alife.
My sons, iam telling you the truth, you need to have courage, tolerance , and ability to defend your points to face them. Don't get angry or bore when talking to them.
My sons; some of them are your relatives and may have influence on you. Be independent my sons and commited to Almighty God.
My sons; remembers these words in my language that you will hear from time to time"yin aci rot rac", "yin adhol koc gup", Ci ben aa wen nga Aweil", "Bi thiek teno", "Ye ngo ngic" " awel dhak" etc . All these comments are offensive my sons, but don't be bother to answer them. Tell them about the globolisation and try to explain in asimple language what is unity. I know most of them are bussy to get rich and dream of high status as bussinessnen/women in the land of your ancestors while putting a knife on my neck here. Believe me my sons, some doesn't know what they are doing and others are late by one minute in their thinking. All the excuses and reasons they will tell you are falses, and for somebody like you my sons; it will not take more than a second to prove the theory.
My sons ; i have alot to tell you but i can't . Remember always that unity is strength , I will------------------------------------
In this sentence my brothers and sisters, Mama Aweil Communities end her words unwillingly. The aumbulance drive away with aclear message left to us.
You got in the point that the politicians as create between us as ageneration since i grow up in Aweil one day i didn't think that i am out from home but after those nice days in my life after we came to northern part of sudan and other ran aboard, bushes and other neighboor countries also we came and stay in our same society group but the NCP came up and start to make segregation and racism between the elder by giving your friend a position in his government and when you came to ask a bout your right he will simply tell you that your brother took it as he talk bad a bout you so the other will ran after food that is not enough for his mouth as the whole generation destroyed in the hand of elders. But i think there is still mama Aweil if there is kind of you.
