A lawmaker at the Transitional National Assembly (TNLA), Kanaj Kuol Kuol has accused the former governor of Warrap State, Lewis Anei Kuendit and his associates of having illicit conspiracy to \u2018overthrow\u2019 the current Community Leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the legislator who represents Tonj North County at TNLA, the Ex-Warrap governor Kuendit chaired a meeting convened on Saturday with sole aim of removing chairperson of Tonj Community, Aleu Ayieny in absentia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gen. Aleu Ayieny who is the incumbent governor of Warrap State is on medical trip to Egypt; he had almost spent two weeks now in Egypt and would be expected to return home after treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking to No.1 Citizen Daily Newspaper on Sunday, MP Kuol claimed that the meeting that was held on Saturday at Sham Rock Hotel was intended to oust the Tonj community chairman Mr. Ayieny from his seat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have learnt yesterday afternoon of a meeting [convened by] some Tonj community members. In that meeting they would want to change community leadership in the absence of the community leader who is in Egypt for short medical trip,\u201d Kuol told No.1 Citizen Daily Newspaper in an exclusive interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe meeting was chaired by Hon. Lewis Anei Madut Kuendit, a former governor of Warrap State who\u2019s also a board member of the community leadership plus some of the Tonj community politicians who wanted to take over the seat of community leadership,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lawmaker stressed that everybody has right of entitlement to acquire leadership but should be in transparent, genuine, and through wider consultation so that reshuffle could happen in fair manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI know them! They sat yesterday in Sham Rock Hotel, I know their attendance I cannot mention them all but this is a reality and I don\u2019t think it\u2019s of good faith,\u201d he echoed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He advised the people of Tonj to stand their grounds and distance themselves from the conspiracy so that they should not be allured by those position seekers who want to backstab and hijack leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am appealing to all youth, leaders and security organs of Tonj that the plan meeting that is supposed to take place maybe next week or the other week in which they wanted to topple the community leadership should not be allowed to carry on but wait until community leader comes,\u201d he warned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am seeing that if we do such as a community, we will not be at the position of peaceful state, we need to be transparent, genuine in anything we do,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MP also lauded the leadership of Aleu Ayieny asserting that since he was appointed the security situation in Warrap state has improved and people now can travel without fear of being killed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2026before governor Aleu was appointed you cannot move to Tonj, there were a lot of fighting, a lot of roadblocks that you cannot move but now under leadership of Gen. Aleu there\u2019s peace now in Tonj you can move,\u201d he praised. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the former Warrap governor, Lewis Anei Kuendit is yet to comment on the matter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
