By James Deng Dimo WAU, 13th May, 2011 [Gurtong] - Four Governor advisors and two County Commissioners were sworn-in on Wednesday in Western Bahr el Ghazal State Capital Wau. The new appointments were effected last Monday, just a day after the Governor’s return from Juba. The appointees were; Mr. Mulana Akol Majok Rok - Commissioner of Jur River County, Brig. Gen. Angelo Taban Biajo - Commissioner of Wau County, Cde. Zackaria Joseph Garang - Advisor on Cooperative & Rural Transformation, Cde, Luka Anthony Ubur (former Wau County Commissioner) - Advisor for Youth & sports, Brig Gen. Wol Dhel Thiep (former Jur River County Commissioner) - Advisor for Local Government and Lt. Col, Andrea Richardo (former security advisor) - as advisor for Economic Affairs. The reshuffle was as a result of the Governor’s State number 9 order. While speaking during the swearing-in ceremony in Wau, Western Bahr el Ghazal Governor Brig. Rizik Zackaria Hussan urged the newly appointed advisors and County Commissioners to prioritize security matters in the State. Over the last months, tribal clashes in the Counties of Jur River and Wau left many dead, maimed and homeless.

He promised that his State will never be among such States in the South. Meanwhile, the State high court president, Issac Kur Majak called for harness and good performance for the new officials ahead of new challenges in their docket. In their acceptance speech, the appointees agreed to work together in unity and cooperation ahead in readiness of the new nation.
