Statement on Threats Against South Sudanese Citizens
This man is "Gen. Mawein Mathiang Gor", a community leader of the *Awan Community*, the same community President Salva Kiir comes from. He is reportedly a nephew of President Kiir.
In a recent speech, he threatened South Sudanese citizens and stated, "I am a killer."
How can someone who makes such threats walk freely without being arrested? Because he is related to the President, he believes he can kill innocent citizens and get away with it.
I believe this man should be *arrested immediately and made to appear before a Court of Law — if there is still rule of law in South Sudan.
You cannot threaten the public and expect the law not to apply simply because you are related to the President, his relatives, and family members. That is not acceptable.
The people of South Sudan must be *free from family rule and abuse of power* by the Kiir family and the Awan Community.
In the upcoming General Election on December 22, 2026*, together we will rescue South Sudan from the hands of the Kiir family regime.
The people of South Sudan are also asking the *United States and the International Community* to *monitor the elections* and to *lead security election observers* to ensure a free and peaceful vote.
Sincerely,
Bol G*i Deng
*Presidential Candidate for the People of South Sudan
