Avoid telling lies about peace particular in Yei and South Sudan in general; Catholic Bishop of Yei is warning political leaders and authorities.
Bishop Erkolano Lodu Tombe stresses that there are still so many displaced people in Yei and other parts of the country and many returnees came home voluntarily because life in the refugee’s camps is not favorable, Radio Easter reported.
The Catholic prelate in Yei warns political leaders against telling lies to people about existence of peace in the country.
“So many displaced people around us in Yei and those voluntarily returning from the neighbouring countries because they are told there is peace in the country, there is no peace. And so they come back voluntarily also because the conditions in the countries where they stay as refugees is no favorable to them they cannot go on living in foreign countries with great difficulties and so they have to come back freely but not to be told to come back because there is peace”, he says.
