Best of Deutong Manyok (Akuorjok) | Jieng Bor Traditional Music

Deutong Manyok aka Akuorjok of Abii–Awan Luol, stands in a true dheng lineage. Long before him, his father had already lived this path, marked by the purchase of the Loth and the prestigious Thon Makur. Today, Akuorjok continues that legacy, proving that dheng is not a moment but a generational identity. From his youth to now, he remains deeply committed, recently acquiring his own ox Makur and showing that age does not limit pride or cultural pursuit. His actions go beyond music, from energizing wrestlers with his songs to ceremoniously slaughtering a cow during the creation of Chuei Keer Payam, earning him the name “Ahoc Payam.” Akuorjok represents continuity, a man who has carried dheng across generations while still creating songs that define community life. His voice, energy, and legacy continue to place Abii–Awan Luol at the center of dergel culture..‪@Akoy-baba‬ ‪@aliernhialaguek6640‬ #Dergelmusic #SouthSudanmusic #Borculture #AwanLuol #Abii #Akuorjok
