The President of the Republic has urged citizens to unite as one nation in order to enjoy freedom and build the state.
Eastern Equatoria governor Louis Lobong Lojore said yesterday in Torit that Salva Kiir Mayardit called for a meeting with the ten state governors to brief them on the ongoing process of nation building.Mr. Lobong said Mr. Kiir delivered a message to the people of South Sudan saying the freedom they achieved with the independence can be sustained only through unity.
Mr. Kiir also asked people to change their attitude and work hard to build the nation.
He promised a lean government in order for the resources to go to the states and reach payams and bomas for citizens to get the services they need.
Mr. Lobong said he was taking the lead from the president and promised a government with fewer ministers for Eastern Equatoria.
