Central Equatoria State Education Minister cried out obstacles hurting education service delivery including classroom congestion in schools due to rural-urban migration.
Gömbu Wani Lotiyu told International Aid Services or IAS on Monday that efforts to deliver education services to the country were marred by lack of qualified teachers, starving and thirsty learners who fail to concentrate in class activities.
The Education Minister appeals for support from non-governmental organizations, lamenting that talking about emergency relief instead of development projects is unfortunate in South Sudan.
IAS Founder Leif Zetterlund says the organization would consider Central Equatoria education plights in the future discussion to avoid undermining other partners’ efforts.
The concern featured during International Aid Services celebration of 25 years of operation in South Sudan and beyond the African continent.
New IAS Chief Executive Officer Daniel Zetterlund and IAS South Sudan Director Repent Taban affirmed that the organization would go beyond its current coverage to reach many vulnerable people affected by conflict.
