The cabinet minister for Central Equatoria state honourable Wayi Godwil William says Central Equatoria is facing challenges from the sisterly states from herders

Wayi mentions that these cattle herders have been a threat to the communities living in the counties of Terekeka Kajo-Keji Lainya Juba and parts of Yei

He points out that in 2015 and 2017, the president released a presidential order for all the cattle herders to leave areas in Equatoria and central Equatoria State at large but they have defied the presidential order

The honourable minister further reveals that the population of the whole state are predominantly surviving on agriculture making it difficult to co-exist with cattle rearing
