UN World Food Program or WFP distributed food aid to at least 34,804 people on Monday in Rumbek North, Western Lakes State.
According to Good News Radio, Pakam community were left homeless in the early 2018 following their migration to Eastern Lakes State and in February, they were returned back with no food.
The beneficiaries thank WFP and Plan International for helping them.
They believe that the food ratio given to them will take them through the major part of the year.
‘I’m very happy this year for food distribution. WFP in partnership with Plan international gave plenty of food to those who return from Yirol. The food distribution was good and we are very thankful. The only challenge now is road. It blocks tracks from bring food. This food is well distributed. There will be no hunger this year’, said one of the beneficiaries.
Chief Mourwel Nyuot claims that some people have difficulty in accessing distribution cards.
He adds that some villages further north have been left out from relief food due to inaccessibility.
