George Kuac Dhieu, New Commissioner Yirol West County George Kuac Dhieu is now the new commissioner of Yirol West County, replacing colonel Majak Ruei Angong. 05 January 2015
By Gabriel Mayom RUMBEK, January 5, 2015 (Gurtong) – The appointment comes days after Lakes state Caretaker Governor; Major General Matur Chut Dhuol relieved all commissioners and his entire cabinet from duty. Rumbek East County commissioner Madong William Mading resigned after deadly clashes erupted between the Gony and Thuyic clans that claimed 53 lives and wounded 156 others last December. Martin Matian Anyuonic was then appointed Rumbek East County Commissioner immediately by the Caretaker Governor. However, the appointment of the new Commissioner of Yirol West County has been received with many criticisms from the Rorkech Community claiming community imbalance in appointments of leaders in the County. Major General Matur Chut Dhuol was appointed in January 2013 after President Salva Kiir sacked the elected governor.
