Nov 4th, 2019 (SSNN)-“Unity is Strength”. It is said that “United we stand, divided we fall”.
Man is free but still he has to depend on others. One man cannot produce everything. He produces one thing and thousands of people produce other things for him. A teacher does teaching work. But who produces food and cloth and other things for him? It is an age of unity and co-operation. One cannot live without the help of others.

Therefore, all men must work together. If they do not, every member of the society will become weak and poor. So, unity gives strength to every member of the society.

No Country can be strong, happy and peaceful without unity. What will happen if everybody goes his/her own way? The Country will break into pieces. One will not care for the other. They will not help each other in need. A divided Country cannot face an enemy. A brother will cut the neck of his own brother. How horrible its result will be!
A society, too, cannot do without unity. Man is a social animal. He helps others, and others help him in turn. He has to depend upon his friends and neighbors. If they are united, the society will be strong. Even birds and animals show a wonderful sense of unity. Ants are very small. But when they unite, they form a strong army. You cannot break a bundle of sticks. But how easily you break them one by one!
The history of South Sudan teaches us the lesson on the importance of unity.

Today we are somehow united. We differ from one another in many ways. But still we are all South Sudanese.

Our National Flag unites us all. We are ready to fight as a Nation.
I believe that this is a new thing in the history of South Sudan. It is a great thing, indeed. But this unity is not enough. We have to work hard together in peace time as well.
Give Peace a chance in South Sudan!
