South Sudan women complain that they feel cheated by President’s appointment of 28 state governors without any gender consideration.
One woman wonders why President Salva Kiir disregarded the 25 percent affirmative action for women representation in the transitional constitution.
She considers the move as a gesture of unkindness and marginalization.
On Christmas Eve, President Kiir surprisingly named 28 male governors for the newly created states.
Opposition political parties and international actors criticized the states’ creation as a violation of the August Peace Agreement.
