President Omer Bashir Should Surrender Himself to ICC

President Omer Bashir Should Surrender Himself to ICC For Immediate Public Release Dinka International Congress (DIC) March, 05, 2009 The Dinka International Congress (DIC) urges the President of the Republic of Sudan, Field Marshall Omer Hassen El Bashir, to surrender himself to International Criminal Court (ICC) to face justice that awaits him. The decision of the ICC to issue an arrest warrant reveals, beyond reasonable doubt, that Field Marshall Bashir’s claim of innocence is questionable. Therefore, the only way for President Bashir to extricate himself from charges brought against him is to face justice at The Hague. Our community calls upon President Bashir to do the right thing i.e., surrender to justice. Although Bashir is innocent until proven guilty, the President will not be seen as innocent if he refuses to surrender to justice that would determine his innocence. We call upon the Sudanese public to persuade President Bashir to surrender himself as soon as possible to determine his innocence. It is in the national interest of Sudan that the President faces justice to clear himself. The charges brought against Sudan for crimes committed in Darfur tainted the credibility of the whole country. It is the position of every Sudanese that the path to peace in Darfur goes through The Hague. When Bashir surrenders to the ICC, this will lead to better understanding between the Government of National Unity (GONU) and the Darfur freedom fighters. A genuine and everlasting peace will be forged in Darfur leading to rebuilding of the Sudanese state.

Ajak is going to see his mum

I will take off on friday noon this week heading down to Kongor.

It is a mix feeling in me. sometimes I am excited about it and other times I feel depressed by it.

All in all it is short trip for only 4 weeks. I will try to be on the top of it all. 

My appreciation goes to all of you and specially to those who have offered me words of encouragement and advice in regard to it all.

I will be updating you on my journey wherever and whenever I have the access to a computer.

Thank you all

This conference has to be conducted differently.

I am of the view that this conference need to be conducted differently. I spoke with Ajang Kiir, the chairman yesterday and he share the same thought as some other people I had spoken to.

One of the thing that i am so passionate about is this idea of asking people to put their name down now as presenters in the conference. If you want to present an issue in the KSA conference, than you have to register yourselve and the abstract of your paper here now on the site.  ( summary of what you want to present in the conference), Than you can go on and make research in that area. For example, I will present a ten minute paper on why it is important to station the KSA conference in one state. I will then ask people to go to groups and further discuss the proposal. All that discussion will help in the decision making toward the future of the KSA conferences.

I want you to discuss this.
