A total of 2,500 people are from the former Bor PoC [Protection of Civilians sites] where they sheltered since 2013,\u201d Mamer said. \u201cAs a government, we are not only targeting those from former PoC but we will also allot lands to IDPs displaced by floods in places like Mangalla, Bor, Minkaman and other places.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The lands minister said they are engaging aid agencies to provide social amenities as the allotment process starts Monday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have already reserved public spaces for schools, health centres, playgrounds, and even a police station. We also asked our partners to drill 10 boreholes and by Monday we may start allotment if there is a response from our partners,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Wany Bum, the spokesperson of the state legislative assembly, said: \u201cAs a government, we passed a resolution for the resettlement of IDPs and it had since been before the governor. Though there were delays, we are happy that it has been approved.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThough the place is far from the town centre, it will mean an expansion of the town because there will be services there and we should not confine ourselves around Marol Market,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>For his part, Makuac Mun, a representative of the IDPs community said the decision to have them resettled is long overdue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the last two years, we have been demanding this. We are happy that it has finally been approved. However, we are demanding that government provide services like protection, schools, hospitals, and even reparation for our losses during the 2013 war,\u201d he said.<\/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.
