Governor, is putting mechanisms in place to curb this at the onset of the economic crisis. So that it doesn’t really disturb the peace and tranquilly among the farmers throughout the state,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n According to the minister of information, there will be an agricultural conference organized by the state Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, and Environment to boost food security.<\/p>\n \u201cThis will typically boost issues connected to food security and agriculture, and this will also be followed by chiefs\u2019 conferences that are taking shape to be organized under the auspices of the Ministry of Local Government,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n Furthermore, Mabe explained that the chiefs’ conference would empower the traditional authority to effect the implementation of the peace agreement, which would inspire people from Diasporas to return home.<\/p>\n \u201cThat will attract the return and the resettlement of our people from the diaspora,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n Minister Mabe also hailed Adil’s effort in electrifying the state, adding that the pilot project has already taken shape.<\/p>\n \u201cThey have started donating solar panels, bulbs, and facilities that can electrify the towns of Kajo-Keji, Yei, Terekaka, and Lainya,\u201d he lauded.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the state cabinet was presented with three memos with the first being from the Minister of Finance on approval of the welfare package of the cabinet members.<\/p>\n Other memos included one by the minister of animal resources, who tabled a land leasehold for the construction of a state art complex, hotel, convention center, and business center in the former Juba Hotel.<\/p>\n The third memo was from the minister of health, focusing on private health facilities in the state.<\/p>\n Andruga said the private health facilities bill 2024 was passed, and the health minister and acting minister of cabinet affairs were directed to promptly implement the resolution in totality.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By William Madouk \u00a0 Central Equatoria cabinet is facing a fresh headache over a return of cattle keepers to the state.
