SPLM-IO and SSPDF team visits YEI River State


Joint forces including the SPLM-IO and SSPDF today decided to visit the people of YEI specifically the people of Morobo Payam in the YEI RIVER COUNTY in accordance with the on-going peace agreement in the country.

Finally, he orders all the SPLM-IO forces who are currently residing in public schools, health facilities to come out and join hands in order to move the country forward.
The years of the brutal civil war in Junub Sudan has resulted to over half a million loss of lives (500,000), according to the finding by London School Of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. According to the report, it was initially believed that over 50,000 people lost their lives but it is far worst that figure.
The occasion in YEI RIVER STATE was also attended by the SPLM-IO acting Governor of Yei River State Mr Milton who said that he is extremely happy for the unity of the two warring parties and the signed peace agreement which will bring peace to the people of YEI RIVER COUNTY.
Mr Yusto Baba the YEI RIVER STATE Deputy Governor also was beaming with happiness and smiles were written all over his face and hope of uniting the country together and also the hope of restoring stability in YEI RIVER STATE was all written on his face.
YEI RIVER STATE used to be called the Small London because of the pace in which it was developing. It was very smart and clean, food was easily available and in abundance but since the civil war, it has become more of a ghost town.
