A youth association has distributed hygiene materials in the town of Rumbek in Lakes State to residents combat the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.
The materials, which included soap, coronavirus banners and jerricans, were distributed to residents of Malualkodi, Malakia, Akuac, and Malualakan neighborhoods on Saturday.
Abbas Mayek Mayen, the Executive Director of Rumbek Youth Sports Association (RYSA), told Radio Tamazuj on Monday that the hygiene materials would help prevent the spread of coronavirus.
"We distributed handwashing facilities to all residents just because we want to prevent the coronavirus pandemic from spreading. We gave them handwashing facilities such as jerricans and soap for handwashing,” he explained.
He said they carried out the door-to-door distribution of the hygiene materials.
Elizabeth Ding Wol, a resident of Malualkodi, lauded the youth association for distributing materials to combat the spread of COVID-19.
