Nearly 200,000 people need food in Amadi: official

AMADI (15 Feb.)

Joseph Ngere Pachiko, Governor of South Sudan’s Amadi State says he is
deeply concerned about the rapidly deteriorating humanitarian situation for
nearly 200,000 civilians in the state.

Pachiko told Radio Tamazuj yesterday that nearly 200,000 villagers are
facing dire humanitarian conditions due to shortages of food and other
basic services in the state.

He pointed out that a large number of local residents left their homes
after SPLA-IO troops entered their areas following fighting in July last
year, forcing farmers to leave their farms.“We have assessed the situation
and we found out that the people have fled and left their belongings
behind. Even they didn’t harvest their crops because they ran away after
Riek Machar and his forces arrived in their areas,” said Pachiko.

The state official called on humanitarian organizations to provide aid
assistance to the needy people as soon as possible.
