BREAKING NEWS: The Council of States has written to President Salva Kiir Mayardit to remove the Governor of Unity State, Dr. Joseph Nguen Monytuil.
This comes after the Upper House on Monday passed a vote-of-no-confidence against Dr. Monytuil, and asked him to resign, or be removed through a presidential decree, for allegedly failing to curtail insecurity in the oil-rich state.
The legislature said the governor did not prevail over the incidents of deadly violence, including the atrocities in Leer County in April, killing of Mayom County Commissioner and the extrajudicial ex*****on of armed military officers early this month.
