Do not play with people’s lives says Juffa

That is the words from Northern Province Governor Gary Juffa when urging Prime Minister Peter O’Neill to release outstanding disaster funds for his people dating back to 2012.        

His comments followed another flood washing away the wet crossing at Girua last night, the second time in the space of three months.

“It exceptionally important that the national government make available the funds that is due to the province, that is about K3 million promised by the prime minister in 2012 at the Independence Oval.
