Aweil authorities warn citizens about river crossings, flash floods
Local authorities in Aweil West County of Northern Bahr-el-Ghazal State have cautioned the communities to be careful while crossing the river, saying the warning will protect people from drowning.
The authorities issued the warning after a 17-year-old girl drowned in Gomjuer West Payam while she was navigating the waters of Chel River on Saturday last week.
John Garang Aguot, the Executive Director in Aweil West County, urged citizens to observe the orders.
