Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The Mayor of Bor Municipal Council, John Achiek, appealed to church leaders to pray for leaders to effectively handle challenges facing the state and the country at large.<\/p>\n

According to the statement seen by The City Review, Achiek said leaders face several challenges, all of which need God\u2019s strength.<\/p>\n

He called on pastors, priests and bishops to use this Christmas to pray for the Jonglei State government to tackle the challenges ahead of them.<\/p>\n

\u201cI ask our religious leaders to pray for us (leaders) to overcome uncountable challenges,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He added that the country continues to face challenges ranging from economic hardships, climate change impacts (floods), and social, religious, and political situations.<\/p>\n

He called on Jonglei residents to embrace peace while celebrating Christmas and the New Year.<\/p>\n

He called on the youth to shun alcohol during the celebration and instead join their families on celebration.<\/p>\n

He appreciated the South Sudanese in the Diaspora for their constant help at home during the days of hardship, particularly during the time of the flood.<\/p>\n

\u201cI also thank Jonglei State citizens in the Diaspora, who, in a most difficult year for our economy, have provided support for families here at home at different levels,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He added that such an act exemplified the oneness of the family across the globe.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we celebrate the Christmas holiday, let us do so with kindness and humanity, showing love and care for one another, in the spirit of Jesus Christ,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He appreciated the national government and state government for their constant patrol in the state, which has created peace and security stability.<\/p>\n
