CWN: South Sudan prelate warns tribalism could destroy new nation

Amid reports of hundreds of deaths caused by violence between the Lou Nuer and Murle tribes, South Sudan’s leading prelate has called upon the citizens of the newly independent nation to shun tribalism.

“If we don’t shun tribalism, corruption, killing one another, then that will be the end of our lives,” Archbishop Poulino Lukudu Loro of Juba said on August 28.
Catholic Archbishop Paulino Lukudu Loro (L) and Anglican Archbishop Daniel Deng Bul (R) proudly display their voter ID cards in the run-up to the January 9, 2011 referendum that established South Sudan's independance.
