So the above namely Clans (Wuɔ̈t) are the one who made up the Dinka or Jieng Twic/Twi East tribe of the East Nile Valley, in which sometimes I call it as The Blessing Dinka or Jieng Twic/Tuic east of the Nile Valley. However, here are some of my concerns about their next or many generations when it comes to repositioning of their outstanding or principal values of life and good characteristics they have. There are so many things that would threaten their beloving and blessing core culture’s behaviors, values, integrity, honesty, leadership, mercy, cares, etc.
