Tragic! Normally the place would be safe, but a backlash against Somali businessmen similar to the one in South Africa seems to be developing in Southern Sudan: JUBA (13 Oct.) – The Madi Community on Friday protested against SPLA commander illicit sale of land to Somali businessmen leaves one man shot dead, a woman fatally injured and scores held in detention in Nimule. Members of the Madi Community living in Juba and in diaspora express deepest concern over the prevailing security situation and tension existing between the Madi community and the Sudan Peoples' Liberation Army (SPLA) garrison force in Nimule. This particular impasse started on Monday October 6, 2008 when the Community became concerned over some Somali Business men fencing piece of Land without proper local authorities' approval. About five hundred Madi community members in Nimule decided to question this illicit move to find out who gave these Somali business men the land without the consent of the local authority, Payam administrator or the community leaders. In the process, it was revealed to the community that this land was sold to the Somali Business men by some of the top leaders of the SPLA. The name of Major General Wilson Deng Kouirot and another officer whose name was not revealed were the officers mentioned to have allegedly sold the land to the Somali. Before this discussion was completed between the community and the Somali Business men, a group of well armed SPLA soldiers dominated by one ethnic feature immediately intervened causing confusion and panic. They started beating and ordering people to disperse from the site. After several appeals from the community leadership in Nimule, they were able to agree on the way forward as follows: 1. The SPLA in Nimule garrison agreed with the community leadership to form a committee to amicably follow-up the matter. 2. The SPLA in Nimule under the Brigade commander has acknowledged the objection of the community to have the land sold to the Somali businessmen. 3. That the committee will temporarily close down the construction site and notify those mentioned to establish how they acquired the land sold. 4. That the government authorities both at GOSS and state level will be notified so that the matter is solved with the knowledge of all concerned. In a surprised turn, before the end of the day on Monday October 6, there was a high level of military deployment all over Nimule targeting the Madi community members. Before 6.00 pm everyone was forced to remain indoors. At night, there was selected picking of Madi community members. Some were beaten and taken to the military barrack to be detained and others were harassed, beaten and released. So far, one person was shot in cold blood. A woman was cut on the throat with a machete (panga) and is hospitalized in Nimule still fighting for her life. In the last four days, the situation remained the same causing both humanitarian and security concern. Our women are being prevented from collecting firewood and water from the boreholes. Shops and Market centre were closed down causing lack of basic food commodities. This natural consequence has been interpreted by the base commander that the Madi and Lolubo do not want other ethnic group in Nimule. This was made public by his public utterance and address to selected community members other than Madi. However, we would like to emphasis the fact that the Madi Community in the past several years has been faced with the problem of land occupation and such cases have been amicably resolved through the right channels without causing such grievous consequences as per the recent above incident. Therefore it is not true that the Madis do not want to live with other ethnic groups but rather there should be a respect of right authority and issues about allocation of land should be handled by the right authorities as in the past without causing harm to communal ancestral land. We therefore appeal to the government to urgently intervene in resolving this matter following through the above mentioned action points and ensuring that peace prevails for the people of Nimule. We do not want this matter to replicate the case of Western Equatoria where situation turned into ethnic clashes with grievous consequences to the people. We want the enjoyment of the CPA to prevail all over the South.

Protocol if you saw certain characters in the community planning and plotting to kill many innocent folk then you should report them immediately with regards to the last part of your post stop looking at our community through such a myopic lens take for example; a few months ago a kid was beheaded on a bus and everybody just watched it happen, even an off-duty soldier was present on the scene but did nothing, is there something wrong with Canadian society or were those bystanders simply shocked by this unprovoked slaughter of a young kid? ps dude don't mess with the: or you will end up like that kid with the camera in Cloverfield (awesome movie)

As a kid after watching the first mighty ducks film i wanted to become the greatest hockey champion of all time, i had one of those 8 wheels rollerskates(4 on each side) because i kept falling with those advanced type of inline skates (i tried them on in the store in front of my mother who decided rollerskates were safer) anyways it was ''hockey time'' you know, ducks ducks ducks!! i had my gear on, all pumped up went outside but there was nobody to play with, only two dutch girls my age who were twins and kinda sinister too cause they offered to help me (when i was still trying to learn how to skate with these things) but they kept pushing me on the road - the younger sister had a crush on me but the older one i think really wanted me run over by a car' or atleast in serious pain <-- i only wore them one day...The Hockey Champion that never was...

I concur Pucca, the only two real 'serial' causes of urine in buildings are Dogs and drunks, unless Cadaan has seen Somalis owning dogs(unheard off) or seen Somali drunks(insignificant compared to the majority of the Somali community who live a sober life because of their faith) peeing around those buildings i think that was a gross generalization! ThePoint - nope just highlighting the fruits of stability; see also China and the reconstructed Bosnia
