Taban Gonga has been a body guard to Governor Futuyo. He is zande by clan Kowe.
Rumours are swirling in the aftermath of the abduction of the priest and his driver who were later murdered, that Taban Gonga has gone missing . His colleagues are worried that his life is in danger as it seems he overheard something which the Governor does not want him to disclose.
It is said that the day after the abduction the Governor was overheard quarreling with his fighters around that Tambura that’s they have thrown him Into big tribe by killing of the priest HE wanted the priest alive to bargain a few things with the Church and Azande and as such they should not have gone ahead to kill the priest and his driver.
Taban Gonga was discovered to have overheard the conversation over the phone and the Governor was bitter if the boy goes out it will implicate him, the Governor.
He was immediately detained and is rumoured to being kept in a toilet at Governor house turned prison. This is also a warning to Azande around the system. Be careful same fate may await many.
We, concerned Azande in the Dispora after hearing the story are appealing to Governor Futuyo for immediate release of this boy Taban. We know there is a plan to take him to Naadiangere for execution. The Governor can not pretend to be in dialogue for peace abd ethnic coexistence while continuing to kill Azande.
