The Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Yei described the late Morris Lowiya as a refined politician.
Bishop Hillary Luate Adeba says the former governor of the equatorial region was not given to corruption, Radio Easter reports.
During the time of the politics of the late governor there was no destruction, but rather there was politics of oppression due to the leadership of the Arabs, the Bishop explains.
Bishop Luate made the remarks at the funeral of the late Morris Lowiya Ezekiel on Wednesday in Yei.
