Sudan: The Uprising against Al-Bashir Continues!

The bullet doesn’t kill, what kills is the silence” – Sudanese Protesters Chanting Today!

This isn’t about bread prices, about fuel or the financial bankruptcies of the Sudanese Government. It is now totally clear, that the public is tired of the Presidency, the President Omar Al-Bashir and his Party. They want freedom, liberty and justice.

As the President was trying to deliver a speech about his achievement. The public threw enough chants and words of displeasure, so that the National Broadcasting of the speech was cut off. This is clear evidence.

Today as the authorities are getting frightened as they have ordered a thousand of the Rapid Support Force (RSF) or the Janjaweed to guard the streets, ahead of the speech of the President. Clearly, they have seen the amount of people in the streets. The same people has been demonstrating in the recent days. The voices have been heard and their resilience have been answered with more force.

The live-bullets and the killings should be remembered. All of the lost ones who has been killed for standing up against the authorities and the President. The Self Serving Individual, who is only serving his interest and planning to stay there for life. That man is who the Sudanese people are tired of and demonstrating against.

We know how much the President fears his own people, when he orders snipers on the roofs, get his soldiers on Toyota Pick Up Trucks with heavy artillery ahead of his speech, combined with road-blocks and the RSF. All of this, is sign of indefinite will to stay in power.

What is ironic about it all, as the guns-shots and the killings persist. Not long ago, the US-Sudan relations have been normalized and the sanctions been lifted. However, the government never really changed their way. Even if Juba University gave an honorary doctorate in Peace and Diplomacy to the President Al-Bashir earlier this year.

Nevertheless, his true actions are proven as the people are chanting against the man, who has ordered soldiers against civilians for decades and been in-charge of killings, causing atrocities again and again. That is the man, they are chanting against. Their spiteful chants against a man, who is not their overlord. Even if he acts that way.

It is time for change, it is time for a better leadership and someone actually serving the Sudanese people. Not just a dictator and his clientele. It is time to stop, time to resign and get removed. The people is speaking. They are even doing it close by the Presidential Palace in Khartoum. They are even daring him by his home. That is a sign of the possible end, they are not fearing him, they are arriving on his doorstep, telling him to leave. Peace.

Republic of Namibia: The Presidency – Media Release – On the DRC (23.12.2018)

Opinion: Is the EAC slowing breaking apart, because of Nkurunziza and Kagame?

Now for the second time within two months, there been a cancellation of the East African Community – Heads of State Summit, which was scheduled for the 30th November 2018 and the second one on the 27th December 2018. Now, the EAC Secretariat says its postponed.

The reality is that this bickering, this nail-biting between neighbors aren’t creating a better space for the civilians. This is showing a disregard for the citizens and the region in general. That Bujumbura has trouble with Kigali is clear. Also, that President Paul Kagame this week alone, said Rwanda had problems with two of their neighbors, but not the two other. That means, there are more issues within the EAC, than the EAC and the Heads of State want to play.

President Pierre Nkurunziza needs enemies outside now, since he has soon killed off everyone inside his fiefdom. He wants total control and own his Republic without any oversight or questioning from abroad, that is why he is silencing the media houses and the NGOs in Burundi. The Rwandan counterparts aren’t better, just more diplomatic, but we know the truth. That both regimes are tyrannical and despotic at best. They are not democratic dreams of nations, who cares about the liberty and freedom of their citizens. Therefore, they are both playing high stakes to look good, while making the other the enemy.

This while Tanzania, where the rising repressions are happening too, President John Pombe Magufuli are already getting questioned by all opposition parties and losing aid money. As his oppressive actions, his laws and his attitude towards dissidents. While he has a better relationship with EAC Chairman and figuring out better deals with Kenya.

The EAC Chairman President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni are not able to fix the issues between Nkurunziza and Kagame. He just want to look like the giant and the grand-pa everyone is supposed to trust. He speaks with double tongue, as he speaks of dialogue, but torture and arrest his opposition.

The one outside the current squabble and drama between the states are Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta, who clearly waiting for another big scandal back-home and also a PR Stunt to cover it up. The Kenyan have had trade wars and challenges with both Uganda and Tanzania. But during the last two years, these has been more or less solved. As Kenyatta want to be integrated and get the trade done between the Republics.

Now, as we are soon clocking into 2019. The EAC integration, the EAC as an idea is dwindling in value. As the Heads of State Summits is not valued. The EAC are not able to fix the current headaches or even talk. The Burundian government are fighting it and making the Rwandan counterpart the scare-crow. While not looking into it self and what it does. Because the President and CNDD-FDD are not willing to really support the Inter-Burundian Dialogue, where Museveni also is the sponsor of it.

Not that Kagame mind all of this, even as the Chairman of the African Union (AU). It is like he doesn’t mind, the issues with Burundi. That it doesn’t stress him, as he can do whatever and do PR stunts to make him look good abroad. Even as he is a tyrannical son-of-a-bitch. No one should undermine that fact, only the blind sees it different or the ones bought by his swagger. But I don’t get caught into that mess.

With the years of crisis in Burundi, the lack of new protocol or even measures that matters. The Burundian government have decided to pull further away. Just like they do with international bodies within the Republic. The EAC is just a body who will meddle and Nkurunziza doesn’t want that. He wants to be the overlord. That is why this is happening.

Kagame will try to look innocent, but he is far from it. He has dozens of sins and blood on his hands. Even if he haven’t done anything in this manner, even if he is the guy that has supported militias to attack outside Rwanda in the past. He has the ability, but no proof at this moment. Just a likely figure to act like this and therefore, the CNDD-FDD tries to fool itself to an enemy. While Museveni are not able to configure or even bypass these problems. Without looking like fool, who cannot even get the men to talk and discuss the matters like men. Peace.
