Senior Presidential Envoy for Special Programs, Adut Salva Kiir, accompanied by Lt. Gen. Rabi Mujung Emmanuel, Governor of Central Equatoria State, on Friday visited Juba Central Prison to address inmate concerns and facilitate the release of those convicted of minor crimes.
Adut urged inmates to remain respectful, productive, and hopeful, stressing that they are valued members of society. “We came back to provide small basics to help you transition, because prison is not a permanent place,” she said.
She emphasized that many inmates, including youth, doctors, teachers, and nurses, are a vital workforce and intellectual resource for the country.
Governor Mujung pledged continued visits to prisons, hospitals, and orphanages to understand challenges and support vulnerable groups.
He encouraged inmates to become peace ambassadors upon release, stating: “If released, go out and tell others not to commit crimes. Our country needs your service.”

24 Headteachers allegedly suspended, but why?
