June 5, 2015 (RUMBEK) - Civil servants in Lakes state counties are at odds
with the finance ministry, which withheld their payments over failure to
submit financial reports.

Six counties, officials told *Sudan Tribune*, are yet to submit their
reports to enable the ministry track how grants allocated to the county
authorities were utilised.

The counties include, Wulu, Yirol West, Cueibet, Yirol East, Awerial and
Rumbek East.

The director general in the finance ministry, Dut Riak said money would be
withheld until county officials submit their financial reports.

“We need papers that tell us how money was used. We wired money through
their accounts, but reports on how money was used were not presented,” said
Riak.

He says they still demand accountability reports from as far as August 2014.

“[For] those counties that brought in their financial reports about the
usage of conditional operating costs, we are prepared now to release their
salaries,” said the official.

“There are some counties that have brought in their operating cost
financial report on how the operation cost had been used. But if there is
no financial report, we suspend the money until you bring the financial
report explaining how you used the money because we account for this money
to the national government,” he stressed.

He said the money would be released as soon as they get the accountability
reports.

Lakes state has, in recent week, experienced unexpected increases in prices
of essential goods and services, with a litre of fuel now priced at SSP 16
from SSP 10.
