  1. The resumption of oil flow must signal a return to what Dr. John garang stated, that the \”oil should fuel agriculture\” – and in our case -, also roads, security and livelihoods. Amb. BK Wani

  2. Thanks Hon. Emmanuel Khamis Richard, former Commissioner of Lainya County. You have said it all. The responsibility to restore durable peace and tranquility in Greater Yei rests with all the leaders and the suffering Communities of Greater Yei. Equally important is the unity of our people. Without unity of purpose, nothing tangible will be realised. Amb. BK Wani
