: The origin of the air we breathe and the smile you make comes from SPLA
During the celebration of SPLA Day by the SPLM-Rwanda chapter, the Interim chairperson Cde. Atak Tong Atak addressed his fellow youth/comrades on the role of SPLA in young people who are growing up to become leaders of the country.
“ On this SPLA DAY, let’s trace back what we should always not forget as South Sudanese citizens, home and here abroad. We have come from a far as a country, starting from just being ordinary dirty black people in Sudan who want to be acknowledged for their identity and strength and the souls of lions. Those were the people we aim to celebrate their success with today.
We have so far had a country that is divided into an unacceptable series of political parties every morning we wake up, and it’s not a surprise, it has always been the spirit of few ungrateful people within since the liberation struggle.
However, as young people, we honestly should keep close to our hearts and in our beautiful minds that the air we breathe and the smile we make comes from SPLA. It’s something we are always grateful for.
You should wear your red cap as a proud member,
and know that it’s this party that will make you safe.
Even the SPLA-IO members in Juba today are in red because they couldn’t feel the aura of their colour, and I understand how it feels to miss this opportunity of singing “ SPLA Oyee!! “.
One more thing is don’t fall for social media manipulation dear comrades, you see someone is fed by SPLM and after he’s full enough, he will wheel away and claim SPLM has lost vision. How? When we are building and renovating schools, constructing roads and bridges, bringing town to the people every passing year. A scarcity of resources can not be mistaken by vision being lost, they are absolutely two separate things.
In our diverse community cultures, a child is supposed to sit next to their father/council of elders and learn on how to take over the responsibility
