South Sudan is called a country because of a defined territory and population and we want to inform our youths to be calm, be patient, your country is addressing all these matters,” Dau said. “We have the National Border Commission that has been working with the Republic of Kenya and the Republic of Uganda. South Sudan has quite several areas that have been entered into by our neighbors and we have been discussing them in the context of the African Union and we have been engaging at that level between ourselves and these particular two countries.” Deng Dau said. 

Hon. Deng Dau further said that they have not yet received an official communication from Eastern Equatoria State Governor Hon. Louis Lobong Lojore.

We have priorities and one of them is to consolidate our internal peace so that when we have an issue outside, we face it as a unified consolidated country,” he said. “You cannot just be running around to fight when you have not yet consolidated yourself inside the country so we want to assure our youths in Kapoeta in Eastern Equatoria and elsewhere in areas of Central Equatoria, in Upper Nile, in Ruweng Administrative Area and other places including Western Bahr el Ghazal.” Deng Dau said.
