February 14,2011 (BENTIU) – The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in collaboration with Government of South Sudan’s (GoSS) Local Government Board (LGB) and with support from the Local Government Recovery Programme (LGRP) will carry out planning and budgeting in Unity State with the nine counties’ executive administrations between 2011 and 2013.

Wanga Lawrence, project analyst for UNDP-LGRP said that for the last five years,”we had a planning and budgeting process which was not integrated, each county was coming out with different formats. The organisation needs uniformity across the budgets of 79 counties, which should be uniform whether from Upper Nile, Unity state, or central Equatoria”.

State minister for local government Joseph Gai Riak said, “the reason for this workshop is the reviewing of planning and budgeting for the local government institutions, not just with the ministry [of local government] but also the nine counties”.

Today it is open monitor and supervised by UNDP with local government board in supervision and it is in fact the local government on board to sent these team to the state undergoing training this workshop, this is not the first, but they just want to revises what they have done before taken as planning and training on this budgeting.

Gai described the workshop as very important and he expects it to gain momentum in local government and to disseminate into others institutions.

    UNDP is just wasting moni and time to teach these people,even if you teach them for years still they will come back to zero level,most of these people have not reached good education level rather then primary.These people were taken to Yei in the year 2008 and they came back to their counties and State with nothing apart from the stomach they developed during the training.

    Food hungry individual had done this “During the war, the Sudanese government in Khartoum armed breakaway southern militias to fight the main southern rebel group, the Sudan People’s Liberation Army. As a result, southerners spent much of the war fighting one another instead of the northern forces”

    If SPLM/A was not here in the South,the Arab would have been breeding in here and there would be no such kind of planning we are talking in Unity State.

    Let sing together:

    “John Garang gentleman long live Africa, pause
    Africa New Sudan long live Africa”.
