Lojore was addressing the gathering during the Torit-Magwi road handover ceremony attended by state officials, donors and Non-governmental organizations among others.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would like to mention that there is a looming hunger in the state as all of you know that there is been a problem of rain in some countiesand we also need to prepare ahead of the time,\u201dLojore lamented.<\/p>\n

\u201cwe need earlier preparation so that we intervene before people start moving to urban areas,we need to support them in rural areas,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
