Dhieu Wal says the state of the road will even worsen during the rainy season.
“The state of the roads is so bad, especially between here to Yirol, Yirol to Awerial, Awerial to Terkeka going to Juba. It is so bad. These are the main roads that people rely on that bring supplies to the state.” He said.
