Pupils from Clement Mboro Primary School in Wau on Wednesday morning organized a cleanup exercise at Clement Mboro’s shrine.
Mr Mboro, a South Sudanese political leader and a liberal and democratic activist, died in July 2006 and was buried at Freedom Square in Wau.
Deputy Head teacher Ladu Sabastian told Voice of Hope at the shrine that Mr Mboro’s name will remain in the memory of the school.
He added that pupils were cleaning the memorial in order to honour and follow the example of their patron.
Lino Budangbo Ndogo, Mr Mboro’s relative, thanked the school for the initiative saying that Mr Mboro’s legacy belonged not only to his family but to the whole country.
Clement Katia Mboro was born on August 19, 1919. He worked as a civil servant under the British Condominium in the colonial administrations in Amadi, Juba, and Tonj.
He served as Minister of Interior and was speaker of the regional assembly in Juba.
