The National Education Minister and Deputy Minister for Culture, Youth and Sports arrived in Yambio on Thursday to meet with the State government on the possible arrangements for the third inter-school competition.
John Gai Yoah told the press at Yambio airstrip that the high and technical committee would hold a second meeting in Yambio to discuss the current possibilities on the ground and preparations of students for the event, Radio Anisa reported.
Dr Gai said the council of ministers blessed the recommendation of Western Equatoria Governor Bangasi Joseph Bakosoro for the event to take place in February next year.
The third inter-school competition was supposed to take place in Yambio, Western Equatoria State in 2014 due to floods in some states and general infrastructural challenges in the country.
