Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The first vice president for governance clusters Dr Riek Machar Teny has advised state ministers of parliamentary affairs to read their constitutions and prepare for elections.<\/p>\n

Speaking during the three days\u2019 workshop of the state parliamentarians, Machar advised the ministers to start reading their constitutions to prepare them for the upcoming election.<\/p>\n

\u201cPersonally I normally move with someof the booksfor instants the Agreement, constitutional Amendment bill number6 and7, while the amendment bill number 8 and 9 will be reaching parliament soon because its already approved by the council of the ministers,<\/p>\n

so whenever I am going to attendany government events I move with these books, so my advice is try having them and start reading, because you might be told one day to start drafting your own State constitutions especially that the election was approaching, \u201che said.<\/p>\n

He alsotold the ministers not to depend on the government funds alone but to also further look for resources even through Non-Governmental organization (NGO)in orde rto strengthen the capacity of the Ministry and their staff.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou shouldn\u2019t relay on the government fund alone not because the government is not capable but because there are limited fund. Approach NGOs to support you and help you with funds, just like the Minister has done through UNMISS,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The Minister of parliamentary affairs Mary Nawai Martin said that the workshop was very important because it\u2019s going to help the ministers to strengthen their relationships. The three days\u2019 workshop will end tomorrow and was to help ministers strengthen their relationship and build your capacity together, \u201cshe said.<\/p>\n

The Ministry of parliamentary affairs is conducting a three days training for state ministers of parliamentary affairs including the to share knowledge and learn new skills from themselves by support from UNMISS.<\/p>\n
