Wau Governor appoints new county commissioners

May 4, 2016 (JUBA) – The Governor of South Sudan’s Wau state, Elias Waya Nyipuoc has, through a gubernatorial order, appointed seven new county commissioners.

Wednesday’s decree saw the removal of the Wau county commissioner, Fada Anthony Taban and his Jur River county counterpart, Karlo Manyuon Majak who were transferred to Bagari and Roc Roc Dong counties respectively.

The newly appointed commissioners include, Barjuok Ucu Kuic (Kwajiena county), James Akuar Agau (Udic county), James Mabuong Marial Bai (county), Michael Ricardo Ugali (Kpalie county) while Pasquale Joseph Ayan will oversee Besilia county.

Governor Waya has, however, not yet appointed the Kangi county commissioner.

Last month, South Sudan President Salva Kiir approved eight counties in Wau state.
