Anglican archbishop accuses govt of failing to protect civilians

From Sudan-

The leader of the Anglican Church in South Sudan, Archbishop Daniel Deng Bul said chiefs of both Dinka and Murle communities in Jonglei state should work to unite the two neighbouring communities, saying the government and the United Nations have failed to protect South Sudanese citizens.

His statement followed last Tuesday’s attack where at least 69 people were killed and homes torched. The attack carried out by suspected Murle tribesmen in Duk Payuel County of Jonglei state, has also left many people unaccounted for. But information minister Michael Makuei Lueth addressing the press after a cabinet meeting on Friday said local Dinka youth who clashed with the attackers, recovered all stolen cows and people abducted in that attack.

Speaking to Radio Tamazuj in an interview on Sunday, Deng Bul said the government and the United Nations have failed to protect the people of South Sudan.
