Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Dozens of families residing at Munuki graveyard have been evicted by the Central Equatoria State government and their makeshift shelters demolished.<\/p>\n

The state government said it embarked on the demolition exercise to eliminate illegal structures encroaching on designated locations in the city.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is this graveyard along Juba-Bilpam road, where people decided to reside, and we have successfully removed them today from the graveyard,\u201d he said on national television SSBC.<\/p>\n

The head of demolition committee, Mawa Moses, who is also the state Minister of Roads and Bridges, said the eviction will continue in other occupied graveyards in the city.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople can\u2019t reside in the cemetery. That is why we decided to demolish this building and we shall continue demolishing the other few structures. We failed today due to time.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is nowhere in the world where people reside in the graveyard, so I am appealing to all our citizens if you reside in any graveyard please leave the place.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is another graveyard in Hai Malakal we go there and demolish structures built there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Juba, a sprawling city of more than half a million people, has faced growing population with the arrival of returnees and those displaced by insecurity across the country.<\/p>\n

The high cost of rents in the capital is forcing many families to reside in unconventional locations such as graveyards, schools and churches.<\/p>\n

The eviction at the Munuki graveyard came a day after a similar demolition of alleged illegal structures in several schools in the city.<\/p>\n

The State Security Advisor Angelo Daya directed the illegal occupants to vacate the school premises or face the law accordingly.<\/p>\n

Daya said the government will continue evicting squatters in the already mapped schools.<\/p>\n
