The Lakes State legislative assembly has resumed session after suspension by the state Executive following a vote of no confidence that was passed on the Speaker of the assembly in September 2008.
Addressing the assembly, the acting speaker Marik Nanga Marik appealed to the legislators to abide by the resolutions of the president of the government of Southern Sudan which resolved the state political differences and reinstated the speaker of the assembly.
In his opening address, Governor Daniel Awet Akot of Lakes State advised the legislators to work in harmony so that they can be able to unite the people of the State. He also warned them to be cautious with the budget.
The assembly is expected to address issues of the state provisional disarmament order, the budget, government policies and insecurity in the state.
