give a girl child rights to education

Give a girl child the rights to education By: Abraham Daljang Maker. Kampala Uganda Sudan has been torn apart by constant civil wars for many decades. As the country is recovering from its war hangover, there are several things that need to be put into consideration urgently. One of these things is the rights to take a girl child to school. Although an old Roman proverb says that “Rome was not built in a day,” the issue of girl child learning is very sensitive, it needs a critical observation and prompts action before it gets out of hands. Education for women has been neglected in the country especially in the South Since the time of Adam and Eve. Women are very influential and educating them can bring development in the nation. Like any other person; a woman has potential and can do anything that man does, the world’s powerful women like Angela Merkel of Germany. Hilary Clinton and Ellen Johnson of Liberia should be taken as role models by our fathers; I can imagine what it fee...

This description clearl...

World press freedom day, what does it mean to south Sudanese journalists?

World press freedom day, what does it mean to south Sudanese journalists? By: Abraham Daljang Maker: JUBA: South Sudanese journalists join the rest to the world to celebrate the world press freedom day. But what lesson do we learn from this crucial day as journalists?  There are many ways of defining what freedom means, but in my own view, I can say that freedom is when you choose to do something without intimidation and torture both physically and emotionally. Therefore I would say press freedom is when journalists execute their daily activities without being harassed by authorities. What then does it mean to have press freedom? Does it mean that journalists should write any crap with believe that there is freedom in press? Do we as journalists have to just speak our minds about what we see is best for us without catering for the interest of the public? Do we have to strive for economic gain without seeking the truth? The answer to all these questions is a big No. ...
