Uror Truth Watch: A Call for Action from the Uror Youth Association (UYA)
Leadership is not defined by titles or positionsit is measured by action, communication, and service to the people. Former chairpersons, such as Mr. Gatluak Reath Wuol, have proven that effective leadership requires staying active, reaching out, and engaging through all available channels, including radio and community media. This is the level of commitment expected from the current leadership of the Uror Youth Association (UYA), both in Juba under Chairperson Mr. Gatwech Yiek Yual and at Uror headquarters under Chairperson Mr. Gattuoch Wuor.
Since their swearing-in, the current leadership has provided no updates, held no meetings, and maintained no communication with the youth. This silence signals a clear leadership failure and has caused frustration among the youth of Uror, who expected guidance, unity, and direction. Leadership is about planning, serving, and representing the people. If leaders cannot communicate or organize, who will plan for and guide the youth?
Strong leadership is exemplified by figures like Mr. Hoaw Gatkuoth Thoah, who, upon his appointment as Director for Education in Uror, maintained transparent communication, provided public updates, and represented the interests of the people responsibly.
It is therefore an urgent call for Chairperson Gatwech Yiek Yual in Juba and Chairperson Gattuoch Wuor at Uror headquarters to rise to the expectations of the youth. They must establish official communication channels, engage with radio and media houses, organize regular meetings, and develop programs that address the real needs of Uror youth. Leadership without communication and action is leadership without connection. The youth deserve to be heard, informed, and represented.
