On 30 October 1919 our forefathers fought the British empire imperialism, slaves trade and tax payment with spares, arrows and bows.
Hundreds of Aliab Sons and daughters lost their lives, cattle were raids, thousands of homes were burned, displacement occurred. It's through courage that gives Aliab Nation a victory against the British empire.
Today as Aliab Nation, we came together to celebrate 106 years of victory against the British empire, this way was the beginning of liberation of South Sudan.
Happy Aliab Resistance day.
