🚨 URGENT PUBLIC APPEAL & ACTION DIRECTIVE 🚨

​OFFICIAL STATEMENT BY THE DIDINGA YOUTH DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATION (DYDA - JUBA)

​📖 "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." — Nelson Mandela

​📌 ADDRESSED TO RESPECTIVE OFFICES:

• Office of the Governor, Eastern Equatoria State

• State Ministry of General Education and Instruction

• State Ministry of Gender, Child and Social Welfare

• Office of the County Commissioner, Budi County

• Humanitarian Partners, Traditional Chiefs & Local Leaders

​📢 THE CRISIS IN BUDI COUNTY (Eye Radio Reference Baseline)

​Ground disclosures by Simon Nakang Martha (Director of Gender, Child, and Social Welfare, Budi County) published by Eye Radio reveal a severe educational breakdown following Term One:

​⛏️ 40% Driven to Gold Mining: An estimated 40% of female dropouts in Budi have been pushed into dangerous artisanal gold pits for survival labor.

​🥖 Petty Vending for Hunger: Girls are forced to sell cassava and make mandazi to feed families facing acute, drought-induced food shortages.

​⚠️ Compound Vulnerabilities: Climate shocks, severe poverty, early pregnancies, and forced child marriages are stripping Budi's daughters of their right to learn.

​🎯 DIRECT ACTION REQUIRED FROM RESPECTIVE OFFICES:

​1️⃣ Budi County Commissioner & Ministry of Mining: Deploy joint task forces to inspect gold-mining corridors and enforce strict sanctions on operators exploiting school-aged children during academic hours.

​2️⃣ State Ministry of General Education & Ministry of Finance: Clear teacher salary backlogs immediately and issue emergency hardship stipends to retain qualified educators in Budi.

​3️⃣ Ministry of Gender & Humanitarian Partners: Roll out emergency school feeding programs across all Budi payams to eliminate hunger as the driver pushing girls into artisanal mining.

​4️⃣ Payam Administrators & Traditional Chiefs: Enforce strict zero-exclusion re-entry policies for adolescent mothers and legally prosecute perpetrators of forced child marriage.

​💡 "If you educate a man, you educate an individual. If you educate a woman, you educate a nation."

& A CALL TO ACTION TO THE LEADERSHIP OF GREATER BUDI 🇸🇸

​As we witness a new political dawn in our region, I extend my warmest congratulations to our newly appointed and serving leaders who now stand at the helm of our community’s destiny.

​➡️ To Hon. Lotede Remijo (Chief Administrator, Kimotong Administrative Area):

Your appointment is a testament to the enduring patience and resilience of the Laarim people. God has long prepared you for this season. On a personal note, I celebrate you as the energetic, optimistic mentor who coached us at the Kidepo Sub-club in Torit during my teenage years. We trusted your guidance then, and we trust your vision now to bring transformative development to Loriyok Centre and Greater Budi.

​➡️ To Hon. Jervase Lopoyok (Chief Administrator, Ngauro Administrative Area):

Congratulations on leading this newly created administrative area. Having served excellently as a long-time youth chairperson, your wealth of leadership experience will undoubtedly take Ngauro and Greater Budi to the next level.

​➡️ To Hon. Julius Amin Ben (Commissioner, Former Budi County):
We deep-heartedly appreciate your strong, foundational leadership that has successfully given birth to these two new administrative areas, bringing governance closer to our people.

​📢 AN URGENT CALL TO ACTION: "RESCUING OUR EDUCATION SECTOR" ✍️✍️

​While we celebrate, we must confront a serious crisis. The academic performance of Greater Budi keeps dropping, and it no longer competes like it used to. This is a grave concern for our entire community.

​Tragically, booming artisanal mining activities are drawing our learners away from classrooms. Children are leaving school early to engage in mining, trading their long-term future for short-term gains.

​As the late Nelson Mandela wisely said:

​"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."

Leaders, this is an alarming issue directly in your hands. It is your collective duty to fill this gap, protect the next generation, and restore Greater Budi's academic dignity and image.

​👥 A Call to the Community:

I urge all MPs, religious leaders, traditional chiefs, community stakeholders, and fellow youth to aggressively advocate against school dropouts and child labor in mining centers. Let us protect the pencil over the mining shovel!

God bless Greater Budi.

​By Ustaz Iteba Morish Ayon.

"HEALTH IS WEALTH"
On behalf of the the teachers,Drs,engineers,farmers, lawers,and all other colleges within UOJ that i have not mentioned.

I would like to take this innitiative to cconvey my gratitude to all my proffessors ,lecturers,TAs university supporting staffs, Colleges Association student leadership and all the colleugues and friends .

I salute you all in the name of our prestigious university in the country - university of Juba (UOJ).
Today mark the submission of my research paper for the award of the bachelor degree in education department of mathematics and physics. A rare specialization in the world under the research topic "investigation of the radiaoctive contamination on surface soil and rocks .A case study within Juba central equatoria Juba .
This has been one of my interesting area despite the total knowledge gap in the field. Given the fact that , there are many cases related to radioactivity and one of them is the rampant cancerious cases that arises in the country .These cases are related to anthropogenic (man made) and the natural radioactive occuring materials(Norm) from the most radioactive elements such as uranium thorium ,potasium and the cesium.
The abundance of these radiaoactive elements normally mah results to high radioactivity in the areas and this harzadious to the people in that particular area of residents.
As per my findings , there is need for further intensified research across the country especially the areas associated with mineral exploration oil zone areas of drilling to obtained the complete data for human and enemviromental saftey.
Thanks you so much for taking your time to go through this brief article.
