“If this time they have the political will and strength to implement, I think there will be great expectation for every South Sudanese and Sudanese citizen,” he said.
He described the initial decision taken by the government of South Sudan to shutdown the oil production as an economic suicide.
Onyoti said that from the beginning they were against the decision to shut the oil production adding that he did not vote for it.
“If Sudan was stealing our oil, still we were getting little. So when you make emotional decision by closing the oil, it has now to be boomerang on the government,” Onyoti said.
He argued that they were concerned about the substitutes for the loss of the 98% of the income.
“Now if they have come to their senses and they agree that oil has to start flowing, I think we will say bravo so let us see,” he added.
He however pointed the need to tighten the supervision for the oil money once it starts to flow.
“If the oil starts to flow, we will have to tighten the supervision on the money brought from oil not to go into pockets of some individuals as it was last time,” he cautioned.
He called for prioritization of roads so as to connect cities for development to be made easy.
He urged the parliament to ensure that every ministry works within its budget once oil starts flowing again.
