In his inaugural speech during the swearing-in of the State Legislative Assembly, Adil pointed at territorial encroachment by Uganda and the Republic of Congo as one of the challenges and a threat to the state.<\/p>\n

He outlined the three basic types of territorial encroachment facing the state that need to be handled.<\/p>\n

\u201cDispute over boundaries is one of the serious challenges facing the state which are manifested in categories interstate, intrastate and encroachment from the neighboring countries, most of the counties in the state have issues over internal borders,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Adil further said that his government had worked hard to seek possible solutions for mitigating the conflict components within the state and with neighboring states.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe typical cases are found between Juba and Terekeke counties over ownership of Mangala, the state has temporarily put Mangalla under the direct administration in the office of the state minister of local government and law enforcement to mitigate conflict component,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

To reduce territorial encroachment, Adil went for cross border meeting with the neighboring districts bordering South Sudan.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis month I made an effort to have a cross-border meeting once again with the Ugandan authorities in the neighboring districts in the West Nile region,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the town of Moyo we agreed to discourage communities from encroachment and conducted cross border security, free movement and improved cross border trade along the borders\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese high-level security meeting which was attended by the Resident District Commissioners of Adjumani, Arua KobokoMoyo and Yumbe in Uganda and County Commissioners of Kajokeji, Lainya, Morobo and Yei respectively\u201d he expressed.<\/p>\n

Adil added that these important meetings are aimed at boosting regional relations and improving mutual security.<\/p>\n

He said that the meeting could help to improve, build and establish confidence involuntary return of the refugees from Arua and other parts of Uganda.<\/p>\n
