Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The governor of Unity State Joseph Nguen Manytuil Wijang has on Friday afternoon returned to the state capital Bentiu from Juba where he has spent two months in what his allies say is \u2018lobby\u2019 for solution to the rampant insecurity and floods in the state.<\/p>\n

Manytuil was summoned by President Salva Kiir and the Council of States in August following the killing of Mayom County commissioner by suspected rebels belonging to General Stephen Buay Rolnyang and the subsequent extrajudicial killing of offers alleged to be the killers of the commissioner.<\/p>\n

The commissioner, Gen. Chuol Gatluak Manimeh, is the elder brother of the presidential advisor on security Tut Gatluak Manimeh.<\/p>\n

In August, the Council of States slapped Manytuil with a vote of no-confidence, but President Kiir said the house acted ultra-vires on the governor and then formed a committee to investigate the killing which has also been condemned by international organizations.<\/p>\n

Manytuil then stayed in Juba and never returned to Bentiu.<\/p>\n

In a statement yesterday, the office of the governor said Governor Manytuil left the capital Juba and arrived in Bentiu where he was welcomed by the civil population.<\/p>\n

\u201cGovernor Lt. Gen. Dr. Joseph Manytuil Wejang has this morning left Juba for Unity State\u2019s capital Bentiu after courtesy call visit to Juba to lobby and consults the national government on the issue of flood, rampant insecurity and relief assistance to the flood displaced persons in Unity State,\u201d the governor\u2019s office said in the statement.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe governor was accorded a ceremonial reception by thousands of people residing in Bentiu IDPs camp, Bentiu and Rubkona town expressing their joy and happiness,\u201d the statement added.<\/p>\n
