The governments of Eastern Equatoria and Warrap states say Fridays will not be a working day and instead ordered all government employees to join their communities as they cultivate, in a bid to improve food security.
Eastern Equatoria State Minister of Agriculture, Environment, and Forestry Placid Koks Komakech told Radio Tamazuj that the order takes effect starting Friday 14, 2021.
He says the policy will help improve livelihoods through increased food production, saying the government authorities will monitor the implementation of the order.
