So we were trying to go and find out from NGOs how to collect data to show the way they are recruiting employees. So, in the process some of the NGOs even refused to give some data, \u201csaid Florence.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with John Odongi, Executive Director of the Relief and Rehabilitation Commission, he admitted that there is a bias in recruitment within some national NGOs in the state.<\/p>\n<p>He said this had caused misunderstandings between the youth and their partners.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis has been happening not only in Eastern Equatoria State but all over South Sudan and also in so many parts of the counties in Eastern Equatoria because the youth perceive that the recruitment process contains some bias. We are staying in fear, the partners are afraid, and the youth are afraid,\u201d said Odongi.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
