Okay Africa Foundation, a South Sudanese youth organization based in the capital Juba, said Thursday it is launching an initiative to clean up Juba city on Saturday morning.
Odhong Ngor, the logistics officer of the organization, told Radio Tamazuj that the launch of the “clean up Juba” campaign will kick off on Saturday.
“The initiative is called Nadafa le Beledna in our South Sudanese language. It is a campaign targeting our youth because it a chance for the youth to come together after the peace agreement had been signed,” he Ngor.
He further said all youth groups and politicians are invited to join the Juba cleaning drive. He urged all youth in the capital city to turn up for the street-cleaning campaign on Saturday.
“We are targeting Juba town starting from Mudiriya on Saturday. But we next time we will move to other neighborhoods,” he said.
He pointed out that the Juba City Council had pledged to provide security during the campaign. Ngor noted that they plan to extend the cleaning drive all states of South Sudan.
