POLITICAL ARTICLE

The recently concluded election of the Twic Student's Association in Universities and Higher Institutions in Juba has marked another important democratic step for Twic students living and studying in the capital. The election ended with Mr. Daniel Reech Mam Majook emerging victorious as the newly elected Chairperson after a competitive race against his opponent, Mr. Santino Marial Cyer.

The election process demonstrated political maturity, unity, and democratic participation among the students. Members of the General Assembly turned up in large numbers to exercise their constitutional right by voting for the leader of their choice peacefully and responsibly.

Victory and defeat are both part of democracy. Therefore, the outcome of the election should be respected and accepted by all parties involved without complaints or divisions. Leadership is not about conflict after results, but about maintaining unity, respecting the voices of the people, and working together for the common interests of Twic students.

Mr. Daniel Reech Mam Majook has now been entrusted with the responsibility of leading the association forward. His leadership will require cooperation from all students, including those who supported other candidates during the election period. Equally, Mr. Santino Marial Cyer deserves recognition for participating peacefully in the democratic process and showing commitment to student leadership and representation.

The election has proven that Twic students are capable of conducting peaceful and organized democratic activities based on mutual respect, fairness, and constitutional procedures. It is now time for reconciliation, cooperation, and collective development rather than political differences.

Special appreciation goes to the General Assembly members who participated in the voting process and made their voices heard through peaceful democratic means. Your participation strengthened the legitimacy of the election and reflected the spirit of unity and responsibility among students.

We also extend sincere gratitude to all observers who attended and monitored the election process professionally and peacefully. Their presence contributed greatly to transparency, accountability, and trust during the election.

Furthermore, heartfelt appreciation is extended to the Electoral Committee for their commitment, sacrifice, and hard work in organizing and conducting the election successfully according to the expectations and demands of the General Assembly. Their efforts ensured that the election was conducted in an orderly, transparent, and democratic manner.

As the election period comes to an end, all students are encouraged to unite behind the newly elected leadership for the progress, stability, and future success of the Twic Student's Association in Universities and Higher Institutions in Juba.

Thank!

The Danger of Clan-Based Leadership and the Future of Divisive Leaders

Leadership is a responsibility that demands fairness, wisdom, integrity, and the ability to unite people from different backgrounds. A true leader is expected to serve all citizens equally regardless of tribe, clan, family ties, religion, or political affiliation. However, some leaders fail in this responsibility by favoring only their relatives, family members, or clan associates while sidelining others. Such discriminatory leadership weakens institutions, divides communities, and destroys public trust. A leader who practices favoritism and clan-based governance may appear strong for a short period, but his leadership often faces serious challenges in the long run.

One of the major qualities of a divisive leader is nepotism. This type of leader appoints family members and close relatives to important government positions whether they are qualified or not. Instead of selecting competent individuals based on merit, he prioritizes loyalty to his clan. As a result, institutions become weak because many positions are occupied by people who lack experience, professionalism, and vision. This creates frustration among citizens who feel excluded despite their qualifications and abilities.

Another characteristic of such a leader is discrimination. He treats people differently according to their tribal identity, family connection, or region of origin. Opportunities such as employment, scholarships, contracts, and promotions are often reserved for people from his inner circle. Those outside his clan may face marginalization, intimidation, or neglect. Over time, this creates resentment among communities and increases ethnic tensions within society. Citizens begin to lose the sense of national unity because they believe the system no longer represents everyone equally.

A leader who discriminates against others also tends to rule through fear rather than respect. Instead of encouraging dialogue, criticism, and inclusiveness, he suppresses opposing voices. Journalists, activists, political opponents, and even ordinary citizens may fear speaking openly about injustice. Such leadership creates a culture of silence where people obey not because they believe in the leader, but because they fear punishment. In many cases, this weakens democracy and limits freedom of expression.

Furthermore, clan-centered leadership usually affects development and national progress. When public resources are distributed unfairly, some regions receive more attention while others remain neglected. Roads, schools, hospitals, and government services may only be concentrated in areas connected to the leader’s tribe or political allies. This imbalance deepens inequality and slows national growth. Instead of building one united country, the leader unintentionally creates divisions between “favored citizens” and “forgotten citizens.”

The way such a leader governs often damages social harmony. Communities that feel excluded may begin to lose confidence in national institutions. Young people may grow angry and hopeless after seeing that success depends more on family connections than hard work or education. In some countries, this type of leadership has contributed to conflict, rebellion, and political instability because marginalized groups eventually demand equal treatment and justice.

Although discriminatory leaders may survive politically for some time through power, influence, or fear, their future in leadership is often uncertain. Leadership built on clan loyalty alone is usually fragile because it lacks broad national support. As citizens become more educated and politically aware, they begin demanding accountability, fairness, and equal representation. Many divisive leaders eventually face public criticism, political isolation, or loss of legitimacy because people grow tired of exclusion and inequality.

In the future, a leader who continues discriminating against citizens based on clan or family connections risks losing the trust of the nation. History has shown that sustainable leadership is built on unity, justice, and inclusiveness. Leaders who fail to embrace these values often leave behind division, bitterness, and weakened institutions. On the other hand, leaders who treat all citizens equally earn lasting respect and national support.

A successful leader must understand that leadership is not ownership of a country or institution. It is a duty to serve every citizen fairly. True leadership listens to all communities, promotes merit over favoritism, and creates equal opportunities for everyone. Nations progress when leaders unite people instead of dividing them. Therefore, any leader who discriminates against others because they are not from his family or clan may achieve temporary control, but he risks damaging both his legacy and the future stability of the country.
