1.0 Acknowledgment and Appreciation

The Africa Center for Human Advocacy — ACHA would like to express its appreciation to partners, conference management team and all delegates who supported and worked tirelessly to ensure the success of Riang Peace Conference.

ACHA is so grateful to the donors who extended both financial and material support to the conference.

First appreciation goes to Pact Kenya (Sudan Peace Funds), British High Commission, Norwegian Peoples' Aid and Norwegian Church Aid for their invaluable assistance.

ACHA would like to thank Cdr.

John Kong Nyuon for finding time to travel to Riang to grace the conference.

His presence and participation not only played a very important role in the whole conference period but also signified SPLA/M efforts towards building peace in Nuer land.

ACHA's appreciation also goes to members of the conference management team, facilitators, co-chairs, rapporteurs and others without whom the conference could not have been a success.

Last but not least, we appreciate the participation of all the delegates some of whom travelled long distances to attend the conference.

May God bless you all as you work hard to intervene in this long journey towards a peaceful Southern Sudan and in particular towards Jikany/Lou harmony.

3.2 Plenary Session

One of the major objectives of the conference was to give the delegates sufficient and humble time as much as possible to air and share their grievances and experiences, true stories and to suggest possible solutions to the conflict.

The two-day plenary discussions provided opportunity and platform for all delegates to share relevant information and reflection about the conflict.

The plenary was chaired by two co-chairpersons Mr. Moses Gai Bourn and Majok Gathuak Thou from Jikany and Lou respectively.

The facilitators provided technical guidelines that ensured an all-inclusive participation of all delegates.

The delegates comprised (Commissioners, SRRC officials, Head and Executive chiefs from Lou and Jikany Clans), representatives from Military and top Commanders, Youth and Women organizations and Religious Institutions.

The following are some of the key summary remarks made by some delegates and leaders during the plenary discussions.

Due to the big number of delegates, we could not capture all the remarks made by each of them.

• Cdr.

John Jock Gai (Commissioner of Nyirol County) — the cause of the current problem is due to ineffective administration at the community level.

There are many units operating under the name of the Movement but coordination is lacking.

At the community level, Lou as a clan felt they have been insulted and abused by their neighbors which include;

Jikany, Dinka, Gawar, Murle and Anyuak.

However, the Lou as a community has decided to co-exist with other communities.

The solution to the ongoing conflict would be to empower and educate people to avoid politicians who are bent on dividing the people along ethnic lines.

• Cdr.

Gordon Banak Thoan (Commissioner of Ulang County) — The major cause of the conflict is uncontrolled and uncoordinated governance though problems that characterized Jikany/Lou conflict are so diverse.

Ulang in particular has been hard hit by the conflict.

The effect of the conflict is devastating;

people are displaced from one point to the other;

Baliet, Maiwut, Luakpiny and Lou areas.

There is rampage looting of property, cattle rustling and killing.

The rustled cattle are exchanged between criminals living between the two clans.

There are many conferences and workshops held to bring peace but still things have not worked well.

The way forward would be to put effective measures to curb looting and cattle rustling between the two clans and also streamline community leadership structures.

• ACdr.

Gordon Nyoat Rut (Executive Director of Akobo County) — Lou people are faced with water problem.

He requested the Jikany to find a way of allowing Lou use the water during dry season.

He complained about the Lou criminals who are hosted and protected by Jikany and constantly attack and loot the Lou property.

He said that Jikany must be ready to identify and denounce such criminals.

He asked delegates from both sides of the divide to accept their past mistakes and find a peaceful solution to their problems without necessarily resorting to violence.

• Cdr.

John Wiyual Chol (Commissioner of Maiwut County) — the conflict has caused a lot of suffering to the people.

While people who could be future leaders and movers of development are murdered, Nuer community as a whole would continue to suffer since they would be nowhere in leadership positions should peace prevail in south Sudan.

He emphasized that some of the problems facing the two clans are brought about by greedy politicians who take advantage to enrich themselves at the expense of our ignorant people.

We must stop this kind of behavior.

• John Kuol Duot (Baliet Executive Director, Sobat County) — the most contentious issues are cattle rustling and illegal arms in the hands of civilians.

Most people live very peacefully a part from criminals who steal other people's cattle.

The act of hooliganism must be stopped if peace is to be achieved between Jikany and Lou communities.

Darrwo

• Peter Wal Banang Malieth — (7ikany Elder) — There have been many meetings in several places in the area about peace.

But those meeting have been marred by accusation, counter accusations and petty community politics.

Riang Peace Conference stood a better option looking at how it was organized and conducted.

The delegates must be aware that Jikany/Lou problem is not caused by hindrance in accessibility to water points but the differences in the Movement's leadership and interference by Sudan government.

This has degenerated in unbearable lawlessness and disorder at local level.

The effects of violent actions have been felt by Jikany hosting some Lou, as the guests not only fail to appreciate but instead turn hostile to Jikany hosts.

• Stephen Leaw Lual Marrow (Jikany Elder) — He said that the time to blame each other about what had happened was over and asked delegates to concentrate on the solutions to the problems facing their communities since many ugly things had happened and both communities had lost a lot.

The two contentious issues of water and repatriation of Lou people living within Jikany area must be spelt out properly.

He asked Jikany to find a way of reintegrating the Lou currently settling in Jikany area rather than sending them away.

He also asked Jikany and Lou to share the resources harmoniously without necessarily resorting to violence because these were God given resources.

• Yien Kuoth Puor — (Lou Elder) — the main problem between Jikany and Lou is cattle rustling, which is caused by Cie Donujaak and cie-Yat (Lou sub-clans) who migrated to Jikany territory after killing people from Lou area last year 2003.

They cause all manners of problems and for us to live harmoniously;

there must be a way of ending their actions.

We must work hard to ensure that the authority apprehend and deal with these criminals.

These two sub-clans from Lou use to return back to Lou areas occasionally and steal their cattle while residing in Jikany territory for protection.

• Matthew Rambang Diew — (Jikany Elder) — The issue of theft and looting is as a result of uncontrolled use of fire-arms.

Many people have been trained as soldiers but no proper control mechanism put in place to check how all of them are operating.

That he said had resulted in people killing one another mercilessly even from slightest provocation.

He urged delegates to go out not only to inform people but also practice the outcome of the conference.

• Elizabeth Nyawech Kuon (Lou Women Representative) — Women and children according to her were the major victims of insurgence in the Jikany/Lou communities and South Sudan in general.

Women no longer enjoy their marriages as their husbands are killed at early ages of their marriages.

The conflict has also reduced the birth rate and increased death rate among the Jikany and Lou communities.

However, women also contribute a lot because they support and encourage men to steal cows in order to pay large dowries.

He challenged women to stand up and denounce violence and start playing a bigger role in peace process.

She asked organizations like ACHA to empower women to participate in peace and development activities.

• Mary Nyabiel Cuil (Jikany Women Representative) — She also shares the same idea that women were the major victims.

Despite the inter marriages;

men still consider each other as brothers.

Women are traumatized to witness their husbands and children being killed like animals.

Widows are left with unbearable responsibility of taking care of orphans yet there are no basic services in the areas.

Internal displacements of people have left women exposed to all manner of humiliations and violations.

Women have been left without rights or voice.

• Rebecca Nyawech Puk (Lou Women representative) — She said that the problem of Lou and Jikany was cattle rustling.

She blamed Jikany for killing their husbands and children to the extent that many people are now opting to join Sudan government or go in exile as refugees in Ethiopia.

• Sarah Nyaleak Long (Jikany Women of Pibor/Wanding) — people have suffered to the extreme.

The conflict between Jikany and Lou cannot even be compared to Lou/Murle, which resulted to massacres.

The effect of Jikany/Lou conflict has impacted more on women than any other section of the population.

Children, elderly people and handicapped are also hard hit.

• Roda Nyakoach — (Lou Women Representative—Uror) — Blamed Lou for all the problems facing the communities because of their relationship with their neighboring communities.

The Lou constantly instigates young people to rob and terrorize other communities.

If peace is to be obtained the Lou must admit and prepare to change their way of interacting with other communities.

• Mary Nyapuka Chang — Ulang Women Group — said that theft and robbery could not stop because soldiers are not united.

He blamed men for their suffering.

Some Movement's soldiers have been defecting consistently to the Sudan government and later rejoined the SPLA again after sometime that cause confusion and misunderstanding.

Since the military is patriarchal in composition, women's views and opinions are not considered at any level of decision-making.

A proper system needs to be put in place by the Movement in order to stop such confusion in the future.

• Pastor David Ding Gatwech (Jikany Church PCOS —Yomding Parish) —He said that the church is no longer a respected institution as it used to be sometimes back because church leaders involve in politics that lead to manipulation and biasness in the cause of their church duties.

He called upon people to forget about their past and commit themselves to building peace through prayers and addressing the real issues that affect the people at large.

He challenged fellow church leaders to stick to the work of God than indulging in politics that divided people along ethnic lines.

• Rev. James Dau (Ngok Dinka of Ballet/ Sobat County) — Challenged the delegates to be honest in whatever they said because people were tired with empty talks and conferences.

The elderly people and youth alike should directly be blamed for the damages ]ikany/ Lou conflict has caused for such conflict knew no age or clan.

Fathers had participated in providing arms to their children to use them during their robbery missions.

He said the truth must be told and that truth shall set people free.

• Rebecca Nyaluak Lual (Deaconess, Nairobi Delegate) — She brought a new observation to the conference that the impact of Jikany/Lou conflict is devastating not only to the larger communities but also to the basic units of the society that is families.

She said, many of the Nuer men resort to beat and assault their wives out of frustration and humiliation they get once their opponents defeat them in the battle-fields.

Women are subjected to double suffering under patriarchal leadership.

She asked Leaders especially men to read the signs of change in the world and make rightful decision.

She revealed that life as a refugee is very hard countrary to people's expectation.

She blamed Nuer living in Kakuma for not taking the opportunity to go to school like other communities.

Problems arising from accessing the water points and grazing land along the river bank.

Government interference and support to militia groups.

Severe drought that resulted to famine and abject poverty among the community.

Cattle rustling and looting of property.

Ignorance and illiteracy within the region.

Mistrust, attitudes and beliefs among the people of both clans.

Governance:

Political differences, ineffective administrative structure, crime, ineffective leadership in the SPLIWA, lack of traditional systems of governance etc.

3.3.2 Suggested Solutions

1. Governance

• Establishment of SPLA/M effective governing structure and systems from grassroots to regional level.

• Development of sound governance policy guidelines to address issues affecting people in South Sudan.

• Restoration of law and order in all liberated regions by establishing police department and justice system.

• Plan and undertake disarmament programs or mount initiative to get rid of illegal arms in the hand of civilian and militia groups.

Deployment of SPLA/M soldiers in major disputed and conflict prone areas to monitor and prevent emerging conflicts.

Deployment of SPLA/M soldiers to work out of their own communities to enhance transparency and accountability among the soldiers.

Clear demarcation of clan and administrative boundaries.

Lobby SPLA/M leaders to endorse Riang Peace Resolutions.

2. Water Points and grazing land

Provision of irrigation systems and dams to enable people start farming activities.

Drilling of water wells and boreholes for both Jikany and Lou clans in the disputed areas.

Deployment of SPLA/M soldiers along water points to monitor and prevent occurrence of violent conflicts.

Initiation of re-settlement programme (policy) for Lou and Jikany people who are willing to go back to their land.

3. GOS and Militia groups

Distribution of fire arms to civilian and support to militia groups by the government should stop or be a subject of debate at the on going peace talks in Kenya.

Mounting anti-arms/ammunition distribution campaign to appeal to the UN and relevant bodies to intervene in discouraging the government from issuing arms to civilian.

Extension of amnesty and commencement of rehabilitation and reintegration programme for former SPLA/M who defected to GOS/Militia groups i.e integration of White Army into SPLA/M mainstream.

Promotion of peaceful dialogues among different communities of South Sudan especially the Lou and Jikany clans.

Launching massive peace education and human rights advocacy programs in Jikany and Lou areas.

4. Drought/Famine and abject poverty

Provision of food and non-food materials to the affected communities/people in the area.

Provision of humanitarian assistance including health and education services by NGOs and donor agencies.

Provision of farm inputs and implements (eg seeds, ploughs, etc) for communities to start farming activities in areas that experience relative peace.

Awareness creation and training communities to initiate and take part in productive self sustaining projects rather than relying on relief.

5. Cattle rustling and looting of property

Organize joint military (SPLA/M) interventions or operations in cattle rustling areas.

Arrest and put under trial (tribunal court) those militia or leaders that support and perpetuate conflict and other criminal activities in the region.

SPLA/M should work hard to recover stolen cattle and return to the owners while offenders are punished.

The Lou and Jikany communities should find other alternative means of livelihood instead of depending solely on cattle, which has become the major source of conflict.

Movement of cattle from one community or point to the other should be sanctioned by the relevant authority.

6. Ignorance and illiteracy

Provision and construction of education facilities and schools in Jikany and Lou areas.

Increase the number of primary schools in the area.

Organize community training workshops and forums to create awareness on civil rights, community development and peace building.

Maintenance and expansion of peace advocacy to the whole Nuer communities and their neighbours.

8. Mistrust/Attitudes/beliefs

Restoration of Nuer cultural norms and rules by recognizing and respecting positive cultural practice especially those that promote peace and unity.

Promotions of inter-clan marriages, constant consultations, inter communal youth activities and dialogues.

Discourage disunity among Nuer leaders living in the diaspora.

Promotion of harmonious co-existence between the civilians and military personnel.

Inculcation of a culture of prayer, love and faith in God to restore hope and humanity at all levels.

Conference Resolutions

Looking at the root causes and possible solution to the Jikany/Lou conflict, delegates made a proposal to set out the Conference Resolution that would also bind them to the peace process and any other initiative between the two communities.

The Conference's delegates approved the proposal and therefore the technical

team in collaboration with the delegates drafted the resolutions, which was

ratified and adopted in the plenary as a binding document.

Following that move

all the delegates appended their signatures to legitimize the Conference Resolutions

3.3.3 Rianu Peace Declaration Dated 5th March 2004

We, the undersigned delegates to the Riang Peace Conference held between 1st — 5th March 2004, do hereby individually and collectively, make the following solemn declarations:-

< >That we have resolved to live harmoniously as members of the Jikany/Lou communities;

That we have unanimously chosen to enhance peace education and advocacy to ensure tranquility among the Jikany/Lou communities;

That we shall continuously monitor signs of conflict among the Jikany/Lou communities with a view to preventing occurrence of violence;

That we shall strive to promote peace and advocacy and development activities between the two communities;

That we shall coordinate and collaborate with the local communities in carrying out peace and development activities;

That we shall also collaborate with other like-minded groups in carrying out peace and development activities;

That we have also resolved to revive customary norms and rules as well as traditional governance systems among the Jikany/Lou communities.

That we shall remain fully committed to the implementation of the Resolutions of the Riang Peace Accord.4.0 Formation and election of the Jikany /Lou Peace and

Development Committee

The need to form a peace and development committee arose when delegates

agreed to get involved in the peace process.

According to the delegates many

peace initiatives that had been started in South Sudan had failed to go beyond workshops and conferences because local communities are not involved in the process or initiators never developed means of sustaining them.

Delegates were informed that there would be no meaningful peace if they don't take full participation in the process.

Other stakeholders from outside would only play a role a facilitative role while the whole work rests with the local communities.

Against this background, delegates decided to form a Committee to coordinate and oversee the implementation of the resolutions agreed during the conference.

Before electing the committee, facilitators advised the delegates to consider some critical factors that would enable them form an effective committee.

The following were the factors put in consideration during electioneering:

The name of the Committee — It was paramount to decide the name of the committee since many proposals and suggestions about the name were made.

Delegates resolved that the committee be called Jikany/Lou Peace and Development Committee.

Geographical area of operation — this should spell out the geographical areas where the committee would concentrate their work.

After a long deliberation, the delegates agreed that the intended peace committee should be operational in all areas occupied by Lou and Jikany.

- Representation and the number of people sitting in the Committee — Delegates resolved that communities should be represented at County level.

Representation would put all interested groups in consideration particularly women, youth, religious leaders, SRRC representatives and military personnel.

Delegates also agreed that five representatives from each county throughout the 3ikany and Lou communities should form a 35-member committee to monitor and oversee the implementation of the resolution.

Having agreed on the three issues (geographical region, representation and the name of the committee), delegates developed terms of reference to guide all the operations of the committee.

4.1 Terms of Reference for the Committee

To monitor and report to relevant organizations or authority the trend of the current conflict or emerging conflict and propose any early response.

To consult widely with all stakeholders in the region and make relevant decision on behalf of their community on issues related to peace and development.

To plan and coordinate peace building, advocacy and development activities.

To review and oversee the implementation of Riang Peace Agreement.

To disseminate relevant information to the communities about the progress of peace and development programs in the Jikany/Lou areas.

Identify and network with other peace and development partners to support and implement the resolution.

Identify operational office from where all the activities of the Committee will be coordinated from.

4.1.1 Election of the Committee

After the delegates agreed on terms of reference for the Committee, and the mode of election, they were asked to group themselves according to their counties to elect five representatives to the committee.

Six counties were represented in the conference and delegates were asked to elect qualified people who would be ready to volunteer their time to serve the community as per the expectations and desire of the conference resolutions.

Representation of all sector of the society such as youth, women, SRRC, Religious leaders and opinion leaders were emphasized.

The following were the outcomes of the election:

6.0. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION:

It was noted during the peace conference that the single active root cause of all manner of conflicts in Upper Nile Region is the GoS through its destructive activities in collaboration with militia leaders (see appendix IV for details).

It is therefore strongly recommended that deliberate efforts be made to reach out to these militia groups with a view to discouraging them from continuing with destructive activities against the local people.

In this regard, peace meetings with the militia leaders could be organized in an agreed venue.

Equally, thorough research should be carried out to establish the militia operational network mode of operation and recruitment, preferred target, etc..
