Governor Mayai is right to said this because new nation needs strategic planning to fill the gap of long war and long corruption which have been practice.He has already started his strayegic planning and that is why he bring peace in the state.Since he came to power the state image has changed from bad image to good.

Manyang,
The caption at the foot of your photo in this news article is wrong. Chol Tong Mayay was not ‘speaking to his supporters’ in the freedom square. He was speaking to citizens of Lakes State at the eve of the announcement of the official results of the South Sudan Referendum.

Shame on you comrade Mayay by telling people what you will not do.
Words by mouth will not make you to be the governor again in the next term.
Tell them only to your personal reporter manyang in your private rooms not in freedom square.
And Thanks
