By Manyang Mayom RUMBEK, March 5, 2011 [Gurtong] - The Cueibet County Commissioner in Lake State Mr. Isaac Mayom Malek has appeal to the Government of Southern Sudan to allow blocked grant to be transferred into various County Commissioners authority accounts. Mayom said that Lakes State Counties are facing difficulties due to the delayed funds in fulfilling the promises made to the Government of Southern Sudan -GOSS during the 2010 election campaign. “We met with the local government board from GOSS and discussed about the transfers, we agreed the funds to be transferred in the months of April, September and December of 2011”, Mayom confirmed. In the Sudan April 2010 general elections, Governor Chol Tong Mayay of Lakes State had promised to construct feeder roads, a hospital, school, youth and women centers for businesses but only some of the projects have been done halfway. “For Cueibet County, Governor Tong promised to construct 2 Women Association Centers and one center is complete but the other is still under construction”, Said Mayom. Meanwhile, Lakes State finance minister Pur Chiagan Dakbai said that the 2011 budget is intended to accomplish last year’s April election promises.
