The speaker of the Western Equatoria State assembly has returned home.

James Bage Elisa went missing on Saturday after communal clashes that left 10 people dead in Yambio.

Days after his disappearance, Governor Bangasi Joseph Bakosoro told residents of the town to report to concerned authorities once they saw the speaker.

Hon Bage returned to Yambio on Wednesday. He told Eye Radio that he was in his constituency in Kangura Payam, on recess to consult with his people.

“Kangura Payam is the main supply of food to Yambio market. So I went to talk to this group of people so that they can be able to support as much as possible,” Hon Bage said.

He said he also met with women who were forming an association to unite them.

Hon Bage added that there was no need to notify relevant authorities because he was on recess and he left the town on a weekend.
