Pigi Community Working To Overcome Food Insecurity
Pigi County Commissioner, Abel Michael Miakol says that his community is in peace and stability as the cultivation season starts and there is hope that they will overcome food insecurity. 18 May 2013 By Jacob Achiek Jok BOR, 17 May 2013 [Gurtong] –Miakol said that the people have committed their energies on cultivation in the villages after they experienced peace in the county. The commissioner said that there may be no more hunger facing the people after harvest. Peter Monybuny has said there is no problem in Pigi County because the new County Commissioner is the man of peace and development. “The new county commissioner is working well with the people of Pigi, it is a first time for the people of Paweny, Ruot and Thoi to come together and believe in one leader. People where leaving at tribal section in the county and that why county name were changing time to time,” Monybuny said. The people of Pigi County are very happy for the construction of the new county headquarters. Wunarup was suggested to be the county headquarters two years ago and due to state insecurity, the people of Pigi were not able to move to the centre. There was no any established headquarters since the signing of the Compressive Peace Agreement (CPA). Pigi County was called Khorfullus County but with some tension between the communities, the names changed to be Pigi in 2010. Wunarup is between Cannel and Khorfullus and the land is strategic for agriculture due to its proximity to River Cannel Jonglei and River Sobath.
