The commissioners effected by the decision are Goi Jooyul Yoal of Akobo, Isaac Kuach Duoth of Nyirol, and James Maluit Ruach of Fangak.

Governor Manyang has declined to speak publicly on his reasons for the move, preferring to announce the treble sacking through a press statement released from his office.

There are rumours in Jonglei that youth from the counties, which lost their commissioner are conducting a series of meetings to discuss how to respond. Sudan Tribune has learnt from sources at the meetings that peaceful demonstrations are planned to lobby the governor to change his decree.

Appointed soon after the 2010 general elections, the three commissioners have had to deal with a series of attacks in their counties, starting with George Athor’s rebellion in 2010 and 2011, as well as from forces loyal to General Tanginya and David Yauyau’s rebellion.

Sudan Tribune contacted some of the commissioners by phone on Tuesday, but a bad connection made it impossible to quote any of them.

    Those youth who are trying lobbying the Governor decision are wrong.
    Those commissioners have done their parts. Time for fresh commisioners has come.

          Wang, Tong Dut does not sounds like a foreigner. He is insane. He does not know what he is talking about. Anyone who preaches hate is an enemy of South Sudan. I feel sorry for people I think are educated and talk like little kids who are learning how to talk. It is indeed a waste of time to make useless comments on very important issues pertaining to peace and unity of our people.

              Tong Dut, that is why I branded you insane. You just makes assumptions without establishing your facts. Brother, I love my South Sudanese people and I would never wish anybody a death over anything. satanic people like you have that evil heart which cries and call for death for others. What goes around comes around brother, God be with you.

              It is a credit narrated from their Nuer ancestral their Nuer parents. It is a fact and true that a brilliant can produce another brilliant and a brave with another brave which is credit to Nuer! Yau Yau will be the first to admit when he meets these two duos at the war fields unlike liar and coward Kuol Dim.The duos have strong contingents that shall bring to an Yau Yau madness!

What you are doing here is the spread of hatred but no idiot like you will feed into your pathetic satanic thoughts to encourage death. Murle are people of Jonglei. Not all Murle who like what Yau Yau is doing.

      They were relieved because of insecurity in their Counties! It is a great lia! Goi Jooyul is an educated man.He is Master Degree in US and he will get another job better than being a commissioner very soon.

        Nuer Empire, if the governonr’s reason to relief the two commisioners is on the basis of insecurity, therefore he has mistaken. What power did the commissioners have to fend off the attack of Yau Yau’s insurgents. There has to be something else. Let me hope that his decision has nothing to do with the insecurity in two counties. Thanks.

          Nuer Empire, I think the governor has not made new appointment yet since the news just came out. Let us hope that he appoints competence commissioners to do the best in the interest of Akobo and Fangak residents. He better be careful about making his decision on who should be the next commissioner of each county.

      Being a governments appointees does not mean that you are going to ocupy the post permanently. you can be impeach when you are not implementing the policy of that institutions and Kuol Manyang is not a Dinka ,he is a government employee and I wish all Imitated writers to avoid tribalism and let us think how we can development our new state like other countries.
