Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Plans are underway to relocate IDPs in Mangala to an unnamed location within Central Equatoria state as the current camp is adjacent to Bandingilo National Park.<\/p>\n

This is according to the Minister of Wildlife Conservation and Tourism, Rizik Zacharia. Bandingilo National Park is located in Mangala County in Central Equatoria. Rizik says he is working with the Central Equatoria State Government to relocate the IDPs in Mangala away from the park.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are coordinating with the Central Equatoria State Government to find them a solution to IDPs, it seems the state government of Central Equatoria has developed plans to re-accommodate them,\u201d Rizik said.<\/p>\n

He pointed out that any encroachment and interference by humans will affect biodiversity.Rizik says his mission as a minister is to preserve and conserve the protected areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy mission is to preserve and conserve the protected areas. But the issue of IDPs is prerogative of the states of Jonglei and Central Equatoria,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe protected areas were meant for the conservation and management of the wildlife species; any encroachment and interference from humans will affect the biodiversity.\u201d He says the encroachment of IDPs in Bandingilo and Nimule game reserves is affecting biodiversity.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is happening not only in Bandingilo in Mangala but it\u2019s happening in Nimule where there is encroachment. There are a lot of disturbances and other human activities in Boma.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is our responsibility as the ministry of wildlife to reform and address these challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Mangala IDP camp was established nearly a year ago to temporarily host IDPs who fled an unprecedented flood in Jonglei State. The camp is now home to more than 96,000 people, mostly women and children.<\/p>\n

The park covered the erstwhile states of Central Equatoria and Eastern Equatoria. It was established in 1992. Situated in a wooded area near the Nile River and it covers over 10,000 square kilometers of land.<\/p>\n

South Sudan is ranked world\u2019s second-largest annual animal migration after Serengeti in Kenya and Tanzania. It involved multiple species of Antelope including Reedbuck, Tiang, and White-eared Kob, takes place in the park, which is also home to iconic African megafauna like the Nubian giraffe. It also contains large marshlands stretching up into Jonglei state.<\/p>\n
