Lakes: Yirol East County commissioner says insecurity is under control

By Manyang Mayom
 

April 26, 2011 (RUMBEK) – The commissioner of Yirol East County of Lakes state Bullen Bol Achinbai said that the insecurity between his county and Yirol West County has been resolved.

Cattle raiding between the populations of the two counties has caused tension between the communities since a 2005 peace deal ended South Sudan‘s two-decade conflict with Khartoum.

Insecurity is one of the major challenges facing the region as it approaches independence in July following a referendum in favour of secession, which was agreed as part of the 2005 deal.

The county commissioner development and security have been his first priorities since he was a became commissioner in August 2010 replacing Athian Majak Malou.
 
Bol said that development was improving in county and reconciliation initiatives had been established with Yirol West to bring peace to the region before South Sudan’s independence on July 9.
 
Commissioner Bol said that now security had been achieved he would be able to focus more on unity and development.
 

Infrastructure

Yirol East County of Lakes state was established in 2005 as a result of Comprehensive Peace Agreement that allowed states in the new government of South Sudan to be establish their own counties.

The county has no communication network, poor access to water, and lacks health facilities to serve the public need. There are no non-governmental organizations (NGO) operating in the county according to the commissioner.

Commissioner Bol said he would support any organization or business who want to establish themselves in Yirol East especialy in the fields of education, health and communication.
 
“Now we are making development. Phase one is [to build a] county guest house and county headquarters,'” Bol said.

Young People

The aspirations of young people in Yirol East County are a “mess” according to Bol due to lack of jobs despite Lakes state’s governor promising opportunities during last year’s general election.
 

According to Bol, he said that youth unemployment was one of the biggest challenges for his administration since he took office on August 15, 2010. He explained that “over 99 percent of Yirol East County youth need job but I have no vacancies to employee them.”
 

However Bol said he had no funds or help from the United Nations or NGOs to improve the economy and create job opportunities.
 

The situation was “terrible” he said adding that the budget had not changed since 2006 and only covers payment of county administrative staff.

    There are too many jobs across the lake state counties.
    But so called youth are equal to the animals. so, who do you think can hire or employ the cow or goat to work in the office???????
    Take them to the lake state Adult Education first.Or employ them in the fishing industry or company.
    Dont waste time writing nonsense about the youth unemployment.
    Are you not feeling ashame too…….

    Mr. Pagarau Makur,
    You are just like the first three opposed commenters who does not like to see peaceful coexistence of entire Lakes State Community. The point here is that Insecurity between the two Counties of Yirol(West and East) is under control and hence, the commissioner Mr. Bol is making a very significant point of concern to be taken seriously by the Lakes State Government. Instead of supporting your commissioner you went off road. You ignored that insult from your collegues that youth of Yirol East should go to Adult school or be employed in Fishy Industry when you do not have fishing devices and equippement leave alone an Industry.

    You should be responsive rather being divergence to some important provakations here and there. Please try to react positively. Lakes State will not be recognised. In any field of study, what matters is how you end up your struggle. Lakes State engaged its youth to the liberations of the South Sudan until now which is good from the beginning and now how is Lakes State? How can it be evaluated? Its final result when given will be “very Bad”. Please take this remark seriouly and digest it.

Continue with your useless job in the houses of white peoples. Chol is being blame for giving many seat to Yirol guys especially ministry of Finance and physical infrastructure.

    You are stupid enought to say that youth in lakes are equal to the animals,lakes state is the best state in term of education in greater bhar el gazal of which they are derve to go and work anywhere across south sudan not lakes alone.
    You hide yourself during the war and you come back and proud of your coward education that you gain from exotic.
    What you know is how delicious is the meat of monkey.

    Many companies for monkeys are coming for you to get an employment.

    Alfredo,
    Mediocare shall now keep quite. He is ignorance about this political seats. I could have first elightened him about the unfair distribution of Ministerial positions but i kept reserve because some three viruses or bacteria on top of commentary part of this article have already entered into our bodies of which my white blood cells resisted.

    Mr commissioner

    It sounds more then good if security situation really improved between greater yirol counties because internal conflict is more dangerous then external one, we need lakes state as whole and specially Yirol east county to be in peace with it neighbours and by itself too.

    Peaceful environment is a friendly for development and if there a development there will be a job vacancies to employ those jobless youths you are talking about. Yirol east county is a rich county ever in the lakes state , there is a water, agricultural lands, fishers, animals and even oil in Karer area .

    Shambe , Pagarau and Ramciel are production and revenues areas, there are a lot of things to make money there for benefits of county and state as whole.

    Mr Omoni jr, your swallow mind denied you to know the fact that , illiteracy is a problem of all southerners including a state you come from but lakes state is better then all when it comes to education.

    To my dear Pagarau, nothing to do with Rumbek . Rumbek city is a capital of lakes it deserves to look better more then any counties headquarters.

    Lakes: Yirol East County commissioner says insecurity is under control
    I see u can count them well the number of people but remember they number are only 8 jobs of high position but how many jobs under each minister are there in rumbek, am not against rumbek people becoz they are our brothers but my point is not about one position that matters but jobs it created in the county because the point was about youth and how many were employed , you are dump enough to see my side yes am at white land but my life is different and I visited rumbek yirol this year and knows what I saw there , remeber if you want fair game them bring some minsters to yirol and take all the high position but I want jobs creation in our city not to go and work at rumbek , what about yirol where they jobs for women, youth and many more yirolest I don’t care about those minsters becoz they just feeling there pocket and not even doing any great to help the whole lakes ..l

    If we don’t tackle the source of problem we won’t move forward I know I might been bit out of the line but the trust if you want everyone to be happy then the local government should think twice becoz if there were some ministers in yirol then it could attract jobs opportunities in yirol and also brings other foreign in the town creating revenue for the yirol people ,
    So if you junub think that we will brings change then let’s all join hands becoz we are nobody if we don’t help each other I know that some of colleagues just write but don’t take me wrong
    I love rumbek people and the whole lake state but if we want to be brothers always then we should knows what is needed by others
    Thanks
