This came after one of the National Transitional Legislative Assembly members asked about the increase in the number of children living on the streets on Monday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe recommendation is to call on the concerned ministries to answer questions about this important agenda. So, we have rested it upon ourselves that the street children are the future of South Sudan and the nation must be taken care of,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is one of the most important agendas that we discussed and the ministers concerned must be summoned and come to the house as to answer these important issues,\u201d Agany added.<\/p>\n
