Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>A civil society activist has called on the government especially Juba City Council to provide tools for the citizens to ease the collection and disposal of garbage.<\/p>\n

Ter Manyang, the Executive Director of the Center for Peace and Advocacy also suggested that the authorities carry out a comparative study on how other cities across the world manage waste.<\/p>\n

His call on Thursday came after Eye Radio published photos on its social media page showing hips of garbage at Juba International Airport with netizens criticizing the authorities for inaction.<\/p>\n

The public outcry compelled the authorities to promptly clean up the site on Thursday.<\/p>\n

While appreciating the intervention by the City Council, Manyang urged the government to provide plastic bags for the city dwellers to put in the rubbish.<\/p>\n

He also urged the authorities to contract garbage collection companies to aid cleanliness in the city.<\/p>\n

The activist spoke on Eye Radio\u2019s Sundown Show yesterday<\/p>\n

\u201cThe initiative from the government is a good initiative to collect the garbage in the city. The Juba City Council should also have a comparative study of how other cities are managed,\u201d Ter said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe government need to direct the citizens, it needs to provide all the tools for citizens to dump garbage, let them provide plastic bags to put the garbage and also, they need to also hire companies to keep our city clean,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey need to implement the resolution of Cop28. The issue of climate change is very dangerous in the world if the environment is not clean\u201d.<\/p>\n

In January last year, the City Council signed a Memorandum of Understanding with East Africa Go Green company for garbage collection in the capital.<\/p>\n

However, in June this year, the City Council terminated the company for failing to execute its duty of keeping the country\u2019s capital clean, an allegation the company refuted.<\/p>\n

Months ago, the city council received three trucks from the Japanese government to ease the collection and management of waste, but parts of the city still witness random disposal of garbage.<\/p>\n
