“Since our dismissal, we have been trying to meet the deputy governor, who happened to be our SPLM party chairperson in the state, but nothing happened. This made us complain to the state legal administration office, which now owes us a response,” Gatkuoth said. “We worked for five months, so we believe our salaries are our rights.”- Peter Gatkuoth. 

 He added, “Initially, we really wanted this issue handled administratively, but they ignored it. So, our point is that we have families to care for and rights in this country. For February, March, and April, we were to receive 475,000 SSP each and 209,600 SSP for each of us for the remaining two months because of cuts. So, we will take this to court. It is our right.”

Tuong Majok one of the complainant said that: “there are a lot of ongoing issues in our state, but we chose to talk about salaries because it is our right. The state has money but does not want to pay salary arrears. We complained while in government only to end up being fired.”- Tuong Majok. 

The current Jonglei State Information Minister Hon. Samuel Manyuon said that 

“What I know there were, of course, five ministers fired on 6 August. These ministers, I am sure we paid except for March and April, which even myself I have not received and the ministry of finance was directed to clear them up,”-John Manyuon.
