(18th April 2012) - Ayual community in Twic East county of Jonglei State says water inaccessibility is contributing to inter-communal violence.
Competition over limited water points and land for grazing cattle led to the latest clashes between Ayual and Dachuek communities in the county, said Philip Dau Thiang, Ayual Community deputy chairman.
Mr. Dau said he has presented an appeal to Vice President Riek Machar, calling for creation of more water points.
The Vice President said, according to Dau, that the concerns will be presented to relevant institutions in the government for action.
