Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span> <\/b> The South Sudan National Bureau of Standards on Wednesday intensified its efforts to ensure the safety of residents in the capital Juba by conducting inspections at fuel stations and the market.<\/p>\n

The two-day awareness campaign aims to ensure that fuel stations and the market comply with safety standards and regulations set by regulatory authorities.<\/p>\n

Speaking to reporters during inspection in Juba on Wednesday, Betwell Eillan Ligong, Assistant Director for Metrology of Bureau of Standards, said they checked for the proper storage and handling of gas and petrol at the stations.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs you have seen what we are doing, we are inspecting new stations before operation, we have to test the pumps to see whether they comply with our standards or not,\u201d Eillan said.<\/p>\n

The senior government official pointed out that they inspected the conditions of the gas pumps, hoses, and valves to ensure that they were in good working order.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the station complies with our standards then we seal the box and issue the certificate and this is done to prevent customers from being cheated and the company operating at fuel stations,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

He said the regulatory body wants to ensure that the sellers comply with safety standards and regulations set by the regulatory authorities to prevent customers from harm.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis awareness is necessary because all the population don\u2019t know what metrology is all about and this is why we want to let the citizens know that this department can safeguard their well-being,\u201d Eillan said.<\/p>\n

He said they will take legal measures against any fuel stations found to have noncompliance.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur standard can tell us if there are errors then it needs to be corrected and if the error is beyond pragmatic errors and the seal is cut then we have to take legal procedures like suing the company in the court,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

They also inspected butcher and electronic shops in Muniki.<\/p>\n
