JUBA, AUGUST 22, 2023 (SUDANS POST) – The governor of South Sudan’s Western Equatoria State Gen. Alfred Futuyo Karaba has just left the state capital Yambio heading to the country’s capital Juba where he is expected to appear before the Council of State over insecurity in the state.

In statements ahead of his department, Futuyo said that he has been summoned by the Council of State to answer questions about recent fighting along South Sudan-DRC-Central African Republic border and will meet First Vice President Riek Machar.

“I am going to Juba, and you know recently there was fighting in our border with Central African Republic and Democratic Republic of Congo. I am going to brief the Council of State about this because they have asked for that,” he said.

“While in Juba, I will also meet the First Vice President Riek Machar and brief him about the situation in the state as well. This will be an opportunity to meet our people also in Juba and ask them to come and contribute to the development of our state,” he added. - Sudans Post
