In a statement on Thursday evening, the presidency said Adhieu has assumed her duties and met President Salva Kiir in his office in Juba on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis Excellency President Salva Kiir Mayardit today received Lily Adhieu Martin Manyiel, newly appointed Press Secretary in the Office of the President,\u201d the presidency statement a copy of which was obtained by Sudans Post reads in part.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the media following the meeting with the president, Adhieu stressed that her role is not only to disseminate information, but to also facilitate communication between the head of state and the citizens, calling for a team work in the presidential press unit.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile it is a challenging responsibility that requires incredible dedication and sacrifice, I cannot think of any higher honor and privilege than to serve His Excellency the President and the people of South Sudan in this capacity,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m fully prepared for the task. As a firmer believer in teamwork, I will work closely with the existing team to steer the Presidential Press Unit to new heights,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

She further said: \u201cto our colleagues in the media fraternity, my team and I look forward to developing a closer and cordial working relationships as you are key stakeholders towards making South Sudan a better and more open society. My office will be open for you.\u201d<\/p>\n
