Amiir Victor Wek, Chairlady of Nyiir Awan Muorkuau, and her Deputy Secretary for Information, Nyibol Marol Mayuol, have been released from detention after making offensive and insulting remarks in a private WhatsApp group voice conversation.
Following her release, Amiir expressed heartfelt gratitude to Hon. Adut Salva Mayardit, Senior Presidential Envoy on Special Programmes, for accepting her apology and granting her forgiveness. She also thanked Hon. Adut for hearing the pleas of her mother, Abuk Alei, who had appealed for her daughterโs release.
Mama Abuk, who lives with diabetes and a disability, has already lost one leg. She says her remaining leg is severely affected, and doctors have advised that it may need to be amputated to save her life. The surgery is expected to take place within a week.
Before Amiirโs release, Mama Abuk apologized to Hon. Adut and asked that her daughter be freed so she could help care for her and meet her hospital expenses.
