The Governor of Central Equatorial State (CES) in South Sudan has urged the people of Kajo-Keji County to maintain peaceful relations with communities living along the Uganda–South Sudan border, particularly in Moyo and Yumbe districts, to promote peaceful coexistence.
Governor Emmanuel Adil Anthony made the appeal on Saturday, June 20, during a public rally held at Freedom Square in Mere.
Speaking to residents, Governor Adil emphasized that concerns regarding the border dispute would be addressed by the governments of Uganda and South Sudan through diplomatic channels. He called upon the people of Kajo-Keji to continue fostering peaceful relations with their Ugandan neighbors.
“The President has taken up the concerns regarding the border issue. It will be resolved through engagement between the Republic of South Sudan and the Republic of Uganda. Let us maintain the strong cultural relationship between Kajo-Keji and Uganda,” Governor Adil said.
The Governor also appealed to sons and daughters of Kajo-Keji who are still in the bush to abandon violence and embrace peace for the development of the area.
Meanwhile, Aggrey Tisa Sabuni, Chairperson of the Kajo-Keji Community Organization, praised the long-standing relationship between the people of Moyo and Kajo-Keji and called for its continued strengthening.
“We want the good relationship between Moyo and Kajo-Keji to continue and even improve. We also hope that the current hard border with Yumbe can be transformed into a soft border to allow people to move freely without unnecessary restrictions,” Tisa said.
On the security situation, Jackson Wani, the Kajo-Keji County Commissioner, assured the public that peace had largely returned to the county.
“At the moment, there are no active holdout rebel groups operating inside Kajo-Keji County. What we are dealing with are criminal elements, largely due to the presence of illegal firearms among some individuals,” Wani explained.
The Member of Parliament for Kajo-Keji County, James Janka Duku, urged young people to prioritize education, describing it as a key tool for personal and community development.
“During our time, we did not have access to the quality education we desired because of underdevelopment. Today’s youth should take advantage of the educational opportunities available to them,” Duku said.
