Women in Twic County of Warrap State have called on all government institutions and the entire local community leadership to always consider them.<\/p>\n

The group acknowledged their effective roles during and after the liberation struggle.<\/p>\n

They made the call during the community dialogue forum organised by the local organisation at Turalei Payam on Friday in Turalei Town.<\/p>\n

The event drew mammoth crowds, including traditional chiefs, government officials, and the residents.<\/p>\n

Women leaders urged the local leaders to always bring forward the issues of women, which are being neglected day in and day out.<\/p>\n

Twic Women’s chairperson Madam Ayak Agong implores the entire leadership in different institutions to take into consideration the emancipation of women as a crucial matter that requires full attention, including assigning ladies who are educated to public roles.<\/p>\n

Ayak said women saw themselves being forgotten and hence had fought hard through strenuous efforts during the liberation to see to it that the liberation yielded positivity.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou all know that we played important roles or contributions during and even after the liberation period as of now. We get ourselves neglected, and that makes it hard for us to get any realisation of our rights being implemented,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou find some young ladies who are even pursuing higher education being married off and no assignment given to them; it is time to appropriate the roles to them,” she noted.<\/p>\n

Ms. Agong even urged the local leadership in the traditional setting, such as the local court, to apportion some jobs to the young women who are flexible to serve in solving the matters that are complicated in the rural setting.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven during the court hearing, we need our views taken into consideration, as some men can decide on our behalf. Women can decide on critical matters in courts,\u201d she advised.<\/p>\n

In response, Joseph Ngong, the executive director of Twic County, acknowledges the prevalence of pervasive neglect of the leaders among women who can serve the community.<\/p>\n

Ngong says their administration under the leadership of the commissioner of Twic County and the entire state of Warrap would look into merging the roles of the paramount chiefs with those of the women to get qualified women in the local government.<\/p>\n

This latest call among the women of the Greater Warrap State from Twic County highlights the need for women to realise their potential through women\u2019s emancipation, as advocacy efforts are being carried out to fight for the injustices being carried out against girls and women in the communities.<\/p>\n

The event, the community dialogue, was organised by the local organisation known as Gender Empowerment for All South Sudanese Organisation, working to raise efforts and awareness in ending violence against girls and women.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
