Ensuring Water Accessibility and Waste Management in Juba
Central Equatoria State Governor Gen. Augustino Jadallah Kamillo is taking a strong stance on water pricing and waste management in Juba. In response to water suppliers resisting new prices set by the Juba City Council, Governor Jadallah threatened to revoke licenses of non-compliant water tank owners.
During the swearing-in ceremony of JCC officials, Governor Jadallah emphasized the need to address the water crisis by collaborating with water tank owners. He highlighted the importance of protecting the rights of South Sudanese citizens and ensuring fair pricing.
In addition, Governor Jadallah urged JCC to improve waste management by dividing the city into zones for garbage collection. He emphasized the need for residents to properly dispose of waste and proposed distributing polyethylene bags to facilitate garbage collection.
Deputy Mayor Thiik Thiik Mayardit echoed the commitment to delivering services and upholding the law to protect the rights of the people of South Sudan.
