Speaking to Access Radio on Monday afternoon, Council Chairperson Claudio Mila said the upcoming motions will focus on the growing consumption of harmful drugs, the problem of roaming animals in Yei town and the sale of expired consumer goods.

“We have motions to be deliberated, and one is the issue of drugs like opium and tramadol spoiling the youth in Yei County. Secondly, the issue of goats and cows roaming on the streets of Yei town, and thirdly, we have discovered that some business traders sell expired goods to local consumers,” Mila said.
