This is by far the best documentary I've watched of South Sudan. The people of Sudan are allowed to show their resilience and are portrayed with dignity. I have deep respect for them.
I was in south Sudan 2013 the dinka tribe committed genocide against the nuer backed by Uganda. So many evil people in that country ss as for the United nations and NGOS they all ran into the United camps and embassies. They didn't protect anyone. Their only interest are resources.
The oil does not benefit the community, which was given to them free.Then you pollute the land and water and leave them to die.Some animals are better than some human beings
Absolutely its an intolerable situation for the people who have to deal with this kind of situation because of their poverty and lack of resources and education its sooo shocking like i said in my comment they can spend billions on war and destruction but cant come to the aid of a small corner of south sudan to help these people out of that dire state of affairs into at least a dry safe place with available food and clean drnking water and facilities to keep themselves clean and a school for education Dear Lord Jesus please help these people especially the children to at least eat once a day with decent clean healthy food God help them please stop their suffering as quickly as possible thankyou for this program bbc
Its mind blowing that BBC and the west have the ability to solve all these problems worldwide, yet the greediness glares through. As the west starts another world war, moving in the opposite direction for human kind
Who founded Liberia ? Who founded Sierra Leone ? Who were the FIRST to establish Monrovia ? It's time for you remnant to RETURN to your Ancestors Motherland in Lenapehoking. 👉🏿🌎 RETURN TO GOD, AND GOD WILL RETURN TO YOU. 🙏🏿
Africa is NOT the "Motherland", 👉🏿🌎 it's the "Fatherland" 👉🏾🌍...that's why the land is deserted, 🏜️ barron and laid fallow and the "Germs" and diseases are plenty. Since you reside in the "feathered serpents" 🐉 Homeland...not your own be aware. You'll need Sovereignty for each Nation. In Our God's land its Beautiful, but not as beautiful as our Ancestors Land, Lenapehoking. 👉🏿 🌎 Every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess...that Joshua is...
These people are so beautiful. The woman with the tea shop. The man picking water lilies. What a life. Ive never understood why some people live so well and some live right on a knife edge. Its so wrong. Breaks my heart.
IKR! Kept staring at how stunning they are. South Sudanese people are stunning and regal. It's heartbreaking what this nation has been through and continues to go through.
I don’t think anybody can comprehend, anyone with empathy anyway. Even Angelina Jolie once stated she couldn’t comprehend upon meeting women much less fortunate then her, why she had a platform so to speak and other women didn’t, she believed they could tell better stories, live better lives and even make better movies then her if given the chance...she is in all likelihood not wrong.
A very emotional and touching reality to watch about Bentiu. I can't control my tears. May God help my motherland country south sudan. Thank you BBC Eye Africa for bringing this to us
First off, so called Africa is nothing close to THE REAL MOTHERLAND, and doesn't match what the OT DESCRIBES. SECONDLY I WILL SHOW YOU IN SCRIPTURE THAT THE REAL MOTHERLAND IS IN SHEMS LAND AND NOT HAMS. NOW EVERYONE IS FAMILIAR WITH THE STORY OF NOAH'S ARK, AND WHAT TREE THE ARK WAS CONSTRUCTED FROM. NOW GO LOOK UP THE TORREYA TAXIFOLIA OR AKA THE GOPHERWOOD TREE AND YOU Will SEE THAT IT ONLY GROWS IN ONE PLACE ON THIS PLANE OF EXISTENCE AND THAT'S THE SOUTHEAST APALACHICOLA MOUNTAINS OF FLORIDA MAKING NOAH AN ALBINO FLORIDAN, AND THE REAL CONSTRUCTION SITE OF THE ARK, AND TAMERICA, AND SOUTH TAMERICA THE REAL HOME OF THE SHEMETIC RACES, AND THE REAL MOTHERLAND.

😪💔🙇♀️ I'm so sorry. I had a hydrolic oil leak on my property. From a machine. I lost 2/3s of of my chickens. They were sick, I managed there symptoms but as soon as winter hit they died within a 2 week period. The 100 chick's hatched before the leak that year have mostly died. The next generation only 3 survived. Most eggs were not fertile, many died in the egg, some died at hatch but most that survived all that died at the pullet and cockeral stage. Last year there was very few eggs and non over winter not even from the pullets.I got chick's that grew but some are infertil. I thought I was over the worst but now is the genetic dammage.😪 I was powerless. Not one government agency I contacted did anything. I eventually got the sight cleaned, but not before the dammage was done and one area wasn't identified as contaminated. I got to sick to keep pushing about it. The push back that nothing is wrong was incredibly strong and exhausting. The oil leak was nothing like shown here.😱 People who have their health and Income act as if life is fine. Thankyou for doing this hard story and to the brave soles that Spock up when you gave them a voice.🫂
That is very disturbing. So many things are contaminated. I lost half my garden because I used manure which was well rotted but the animals bedding had herbicide in it. So half my plants were growing distorted and twisted. For years. Thankfully I didn't put it on the whole of my garden. Simple thing like soil being clean for the plants and animals are hard to find. Our rivers have fish that float to the top and choked with algea and e coli bacteria. Water soil plants animals. And us. At the end.
Great documentary ...such an eye opener on the situation in the oil fields in Bentiu.. this is surely well researched with no bias. very sad to see the impact and suffering caused by some multinational companies. they should be called out and fined heavily for this although it is almost impossible to compensate for such suffering on human and animal life.. it just ain't right that all this is happening at such a time... The Bentiu community deserves better. My love for South Sudan is deep in my heart having worked in Yei and Juba some years back... Thank you for the great work you have shown the world. we stand with Bentiu!!
This incident alone should make these leaders to resign with shame! This is unbelievable for a sovereign country to have it citizen suffering left and right and only being fed by United Nations. Shame and low intelligence to our leaders for not anticipating the issue and get ready for it!
The oil isn't the real curse, it is the developed countries who exploit South Sudan, taking carelessly and leave Sudanese to suffer. The oil has always been here, but Sudan didn't always suffer
@@jazz-axy9924 Ok. So there is nothing people of South Sudan, including the leaders of South Sudan could do about it- Since it is all the fault of the "other people". Good luck changing anything waiting to see other people changing their ways. All the people in Sudan are absolutely blameless innocent people who are just victims, a bit of like infants or people with severe developmental issues, all stupid, without skills, barely can talk and no way to do anything themselves. Everything is always the fault of the developed countries, usually meaning European countries or united states and all other people, especially the people of south Sudan are entirely blameless and like said more like an infant than an adult.
Its mind blowing that BBC and the west have the ability to solve all these problems worldwide, yet the greediness glares through. As the west starts another world war, moving in the opposite direction for human kind
The year is 2024. We have the fastest internet. We worry about Trump. Yet life in Sudan is as if it's 1982. No UN. No Human Rights. Nothing has changed for these Africans. When "We Are The World" song come up, we honestly thought Africa would be saved. We have people exploiting lands and poor people. Greedy, unethical politicians who sell their country for 30 pieces of silver. This is bad.
@@bullbash4872 They're both carved from the same block, and anyway, she's saying we woory about Trump and yet, look at the problems of Sudan, etc, it could just have easily read, we worry about Harris, I'm not sure why you can't grasp this obvious meaning.
If the oil revenue could be fairly distributed, the people of South Sudan could live well. I don’t believe South Sudanese officials or the wealthy will suffer from the effects of oil pollution.
The situation in South Sudan, as shown in the BBC Africa Eye documentary, highlights how extreme climate events are deepening already challenging conditions in vulnerable regions. With temperatures reaching 50°C, South Sudan is experiencing unprecedented flooding, which is contaminating water sources and threatening food security, health, and overall stability. The "poisoned floods" expose people to toxins and waterborne diseases, as well as significantly affecting agricultural lands and livestock, which many communities rely on for survival. This crisis reflects the intersection of climate change and humanitarian issues: areas like South Sudan, which contribute minimally to global emissions, are bearing some of the worst effects of climate instability. The flooding is compounded by a lack of infrastructure and resources, making recovery and resilience especially difficult. Addressing the situation calls for both immediate humanitarian assistance and longer-term solutions to climate adaptation, tailored to the specific challenges faced by these communities. This documentary brings attention to the need for climate justice, pushing for both local adaptation efforts and international responsibility to reduce emissions and support vulnerable nations...
Nah, you sound way too simple. I don't believe it is Human apart from the abuse of money distribution within the country. There was more "climate change" when there was no emissions ...
@@DonnellOkafor-r2d If you mean U.S. military regimes controlling the oil in Venezuela - yes that's why I talked to bare-footed peasants there in the Andes and they told me they would vote for the first time and they would vote for Chavez. Of course the Chavez regime has wrongly relied on oil also but before that it was the OPEC U.S. controlled western corporate oil elite of Venezuela. Chavez tried to redistribute the oil wealth to the poor but he was still just relying on oil profits and a monopoly economy is going to be corrupt and fail.
This was a beautiful well filmed presentation, than you too everyone involved in putting out this work or art and news. David is very noble and brave for exposing the oil company, he is right we have a duty to take care of the environment. David also favors Dr.Martin Luther King! I hope one day David and his family can return home safely. Maura did a wonderful job shedding light on these ongoing issues in South Sudan.
First of all, big up to David, secondly the host is just so naturally beautiful. We have the same thing in another oil producing region Melut County, Northern Upper Nile State.
The most poorest people are the joyous. My mind could never comprehend such strength. The chants/songs endures his joy. This joy is the ONLY emotion keeping this man alive.
Unfortunately African leaders are good at lining there pockets. We the citizens just have to take care of ourselves. South Sudan being a young country might take a while for a positive difference to be seen. Something I noticed the hungry children still managed to smile and the tiny one was not even crying.
Only 5% for the government??? 😢 As Uganda is in preparation for oil drilling, key lessons should be learnt from this. There are so many negative impacts from this oil.
You are delusional. They are putting on smiles as a survival coping mechanism. Where are your sources that no one commit suicide? And even if it is true, no suicide does not equal happiness. They are oppressed and suffering and that is a fact
Damn this is awesome Documentary especially for the first class countries as an example of “hustling “ doing what you have to in order to provide for your family ! People complain they have no money or food and do nothing to try and better their lives! God bless you all in South Sudan! I greatly admire and respect you !
The entire United Nations should be ashamed of themselves for not addressing this issue. You can live without a lot of things, but you can't live without WATER TO DRINK😢😢😢
Very sad to watch this... especially knowing most sudanese are rich in kenya, flaunting expensive cars. If two or three of them came together, they can help two or three families in this video to have a better life. My heart goes to that boy who said they have no shoes to wear.
That's what I said. Africans like to live large and big elsewhere, but want somebody to build their own place. Shame on us. We must change our way of thinking.
We are a failed sate my people……. Imagine people of Bentiu camping in their own land becuase they have been displaced in their own land. This crises makes the overcoming of climate calamity even hard😢
Thank you for sharing this sad story of our brothers and sisters in Sudan. Prayers of hope, love and faith sustain their precious life. To the concerned authorities, God will see you through.
Mother Africa is crying and it's only us Africans that's hearing her cry, while as the west are just interested in her wealth...But don't worry Mama Africa your tears will be heated one day 🙏🙏🙏🙏
There are lots of different problems in Africa. We're not aware about most of them. Floods in South Sudan, sounds crazy... God bless these people, they're strong and powerful people ❤
Watching this documentary film with deep sadness 😢. Very difficult to fight your motherland as an African. It’s my prayer that the people of South Sudan finds a sustainable way to get out of these mess.
imagine instead of fighting it we embrace it and take control of our action like planting rice and plants that require alot of water I think we need a different perspective
Your title is unrelated to the subject matter. Did the person at the BBC who posted this even know what it's about? There is never any mention of temperature, and the crisis in question is about environmental pollution caused by oil spills.

you cannot continue drinking rain water through out the entire year. you get
geoengineering chem trailling that is why the water is so toxic.
@@daralseen you can if it's clean ,I know cos I used to live on it.
@@sammifruitbatthere is crude oil and sewerage in the water, that's why it is so toxic.
Damn this is awesome Documentary especially for the first class countries as an example of “hustling “ doing what you have to in order to provide for your family ! People complain they have no money or food and do nothing to try and better their lives! God bless you all in South Sudan! I greatly admire and respect you !
hello sexy one
I am so saddened by this. Watching my people suffer, and I couldn't do anything to help them. I pray I get a helping hand in the future.
That doctor has seen things bro look at his eyes
Their water supply is horrifying
The entire United Nations should be ashamed of themselves for not addressing this issue. You can live without a lot of things, but you can't live without WATER TO DRINK😢😢😢
why oh why putting so many children into such a hard life / environment. that is ruthless.
Prayers for my lovely people🙏❤️
Very sad to watch this... especially knowing most sudanese are rich in kenya, flaunting expensive cars. If two or three of them came together, they can help two or three families in this video to have a better life. My heart goes to that boy who said they have no shoes to wear.
That's what I said. Africans like to live large and big elsewhere, but want somebody to build their own place. Shame on us. We must change our way of thinking.
You have such awesome brothers and sister 😂
This is the south
It's unfortunate when people are so proud and can't even help their people. There are very few that do and may those few be blessed.
well presented, Nyaida and others are all very strong and resilient people.
The news being news again 🙏
Integrity is doing the right thing even when no one is watching.We still have men and women of integrity.Good Job David.
We are a failed sate my people……. Imagine people of Bentiu camping in their own land becuase they have been displaced in their own land. This crises makes the overcoming of climate calamity even hard😢
So heartbreaking 😢
Thank you for sharing this sad story of our brothers and sisters in Sudan. Prayers of hope, love and faith sustain their precious life. To the concerned authorities, God will see you through.
Any possibility for rainwater harvesting? That water might be cleaner than what they are drinking.
What a gut wrenching story. Thank you for sharing.
As an African. My heart breaks seeing my kinsmen living like this! It's unbelievable
Its their own fault! All africans should be ashamed how they treat africa themselfs!
Bro, I've been there and done that situation, but it's a different case. I want to say that you are the bold guy. May God protect you and bless you.
Bless you David, on point journalism, i wish for my Southern brothers peace and prosperity keep on the awareness keep on the hard work
Mother Africa is crying and it's only us Africans that's hearing her cry, while as the west are just interested in her wealth...But don't worry Mama Africa your tears will be heated one day 🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is a crime against humanity! Absolutely heartbreaking.
😢😢😢 this is so sad African politicians are the worst thing ever in this continent.they care for their pockets 😢😢😢
There are lots of different problems in Africa. We're not aware about most of them. Floods in South Sudan, sounds crazy...
God bless these people, they're strong and powerful people ❤
And its their own fault that africa is in such a bad state!
This is so 😢 heartbreaking,oil was never a blessing to our country,i hope this situation can change for the better
I hope the world can see the visions I have had for 15 years and tried to constantly warn them appropriately and accordingly
Can you explain more?
climate change is fake, it's really geoengineering that has caused this, chem traillingto be exact, that is why the water is so toxic.
When the wicked rule the people mourn and when the righteous rule the people rejoice
Very true. When the wicked are in power, it is pain and poverty!
Watching this documentary film with deep sadness 😢. Very difficult to fight your motherland as an African.
It’s my prayer that the people of South Sudan finds a sustainable way to get out of these mess.
Great documentary although the title is quite confusing.
This is beyond shocking. Profits over People and simply just GREED. How do they sleep at night? Where is their HUMANITY.
Matthew 24:7
For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines, plagues, and earthquakes in various places.
Thank you BBCEYE. I always look forward to your publishments.
The cure to all this, begins with the exposing of the rot.
There are oil eating bacteria that can be sprayed on the polluted soil that can breakdown the crude.
Certain earthworms may feed on petroleum to.
Thank You BBC
poor people having kids these people never learn.
I'm a bit confused about that oil sitting in pools .... CAN IT BE USED FOR ANYTHING??? OR ONCE ITS LIKE THAT, IS IT NO LONGER ANY GOOD ???
imagine instead of fighting it we embrace it and take control of our action like planting rice and plants that require alot of water I think we need a different perspective
Beautiful skin colour 😍
Your title is unrelated to the subject matter. Did the person at the BBC who posted this even know what it's about? There is never any mention of temperature, and the crisis in question is about environmental pollution caused by oil spills.
Bentiu is bleeding 😢😢😢
In Juba they are happy moving and driving expensive cars 😢😢😢 knowing people are dying 😢
People are living the hardest of life out there.
What kind of humans are we to oversee countless disasters like this?
The reporter is beautiful. However, I am devastated with the report that river 120,000 cows died in a space of 2 years.
