William Wol Mayom, the Warrap State Minister of Information and Communication told The Juba Echo on Friday that the Acting Governor issued this statement during her visit on Thursday to Romic.

 “The visit to Romic area of Tonj East County was just to console and advocate for peace, so that they should not take revenge, we will be able to analyze the situation and identify how best the culprits can be apprehended,” said Mayom.

On July 30, 2024, suspected armed men from Ngapagok Payam in Tonj East County, attacked Ramathieng cattle camp killing 7 people including children and women, six other people sustained gunshot injuries.

Mayom revealed that efforts to hunt for the suspects have been hampered by heavy flooding which have cut of the road from Kuajok to Tonj East County.

 “The government will use possible apparatus to make sure the culprits are apprehended,” he said.

Anastasie Nyirigira, the Head of Field Office for the United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) in Kuajok appealed to both sides to cease hostilities and allow government to resolve the conflict peacefully.
