The minister of health in Northern Bahr-el-Ghazal State, Dau Riiny Lual, last Friday afternoon got involved in a fistfight with a medical doctor employed by the state.
The minister and Dr. Dut Piol had an altercation over the use of a vehicle allocated to the Neglected Tropical Diseases Project (NTD) superintended by the latter.
According to reports, the minister asked the program manager of NTD, Dr. Dut Piol to use the vehicle for his duties, a move the doctor rejected.
Dr. Piol said the vehicle is meant for use by patients who are to undergo surgery as directed by the organization which donated the vehicle.
