Information Minister on Monday demanded United Nations Mission in South Sudan or UNMISS to apologize in writing for denying him entry to its compound in Bor on Sunday.
Michael Makuei Lueth told journalists at the Parliament in Juba that UNMISS should forward a written apology or face a further action against Bor compound manager and the UN Secretary General Special Representative in South Sudan.
He declined to mention the kind of further action the government would take against UNMISS Bor compound manager in particular and the organization in general.
Mr Makuei explained that he was first denied entry with armed security men upon arrival, but compromised and lastly told to enter without camera crew to which he did not comply, but left Bor for Juba.
He added that it was not possible for him as an Information Minister to enter UNMISS Compound without camera men.
A lawmaker Samuel Lual Deng of Warrap State raised Makuei’s disappointment in the parliament on Monday demanding a resolution, but the speaker turned it down for future session.
UNMISS authorities could not be reached for comments by press time.
