Ngundeng Bong
Ngundeng Bong (c. 1830–1890) was a prophet of the Nuer people of South Sudan.[1] He presented himself as being an earthly representative of Deng, the sky god of the Nuer religion.[2] His prophecies of the breakup of Sudan are still a factor in the politics of modern South Sudan.[3][4]
