Confusion erupted on Thursday among internally displaced persons, IDPs
during a distribution of food items.

The IDPs were told to group themselves into two groups to receive the
food items, but they mix-up, says Santino Chol Garang, Supervisor of
South Sudan Relief and Rehabilitation Commission in Tonj State, Don
Bosco Radio reports.

He claims that some IDPs did not get food items because they were
absent during the verification day.

Chol says the relief food is the last because it was a one month program.

He says policemen and women were deployed in the distribution centre
to protect the beneficiaries from robbers.

Chol appeals to people to be patient when receiving food aid to make
work easier.

The Supervisor made the comments on Friday in Tonj.
