We have sent information telling them to come to Yei,” said Abiyaza. Abiyaza noted that top officials including ministers, director generals, directors and administrators are supposed to provide services in their various capacities to the various state ministries and counties.“For those who are not willing to come to Yei we will administratively handle the situation. We will bring all the salaries and after that, you have to come to receive your salaries like any other employees receiving their salaries in Yei. We will not pay salaries to people who are in Juba until they are here, they will receive their pay,” Abiyaza said. For their part, the state civil servants in Juba claim that Yei River state government does not provide accommodation, security and vehicles for mobility in the counties and state ministries. -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] Visit this group at https://groups.google.com/d/forum/southsudankob View this message at https://groups.google.com/d/msg/southsudankob/topic-id/message-id For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "South Sudan Info - The Kob" group.
