Give journalists their freedom to fully inform the citizens for the nation to grow, the Auxiliary Bishop of the Catholic Archdiocese of Juba tells security organs.
 
Bishop Santo Loku Pio says the government should ensure that the media houses work without difficulties to enlighten South Sudanese on reconciliation.
 
He was speaking during the celebration of the tenth anniversary of Radio Bakhita on Monday at St Joseph’s Parish in Juba.
 
Teach some South Sudanese to know the importance and dignity of human being, Bishop Loku tells the gathering.
 
He calls on journalists to continue playing a big role to combat tribalism and nepotism in the country.
 
‘If you deny people the freedom of expression, you are inciting them to cause chaos, says Dr Lam Akol Ajawin, National Alliance Chairman.
 
He stresses that the court of law should be the one controlling journalists, not security organs.
 
The Chairman says the National Alliance participation in the transitional government will work to handle the current economic situation.
 
The Alliance will also ensure that the coming government respects human rights and the basic laws, he pledges.
