Juba mayor bans overnight prayers, nightclubs
Businesspeople venturing into night discos and street promotions in Juba and its environs will have to contend with losses after the Juba City Council Mayor, Michael Lado Thomas Allah Jabu, issued an order banning such activities.
The Thursday order temporarily bans all forms of nightclubs, including church trans-night fellowship.
The City Review ascertained that the Mayor, Michael Lado Thomas Allah Jabu, suspended all forms of street promotions and activities that cause public noise in the town.
This includes discos and DJs operations in South Sudan Hotel (Buluk and Juba), Nyakuron Cultural Centre Signature, University of Juba Staff Club, Marx, Celebrity, and other public places within the jurisdiction of the Juba City Council.
“I, Michael Lado Thomas Allah Jabu, – Mayor of Juba City Council hereby issue this local order for the control and temporary suspension of all discos and DJs operations, church-related trans-night fellowships by some unauthorised church institutions, and all companies, disorganised street promotional activities in Juba City Council,” the order partly reads.
According to the order dated February 3, 2022, the temporary ban was a measure to crack down on the notorious gangsters known as niggers’ activities in the town who have robbed citizens’ property as well as claimed the lives of dozens of victims.
“Discos and DJs operation ….. including others not identified but are operating in residential areas, are suspended with immediate effect for reasons of mushrooming groups of Niggers, Toronto, sinister and gangster groups causing insecurity to lives and property in Juba City Council,” further read the order.
Last week, Executive Director for Community Empowerment for Progress Organisation (CEPO), Edmund Yakani, petitioned the mayor over rising criminal activities in the Juba City by the Toronto Boys.
Yakani blamed authorities and law enforcement agencies for condoning the Toronto boys and niggers in the city for causing insecurity and disturbing the public.
The mayor’s ban coincided with the arrest of about 10 suspected members of street snatchers, commonly known as Toronto boys, by the National Security Service in a crackdown operation in Juba on Thursday.
The operation followed a ‘‘series of dismaying highway and city robberies while on motorcycles, which claimed the life of a pregnant woman recently.’’
“This and other forms of criminal acts committed by the group have traumatised and instilled fear in the minds and hearts of residents of Juba City, as well as other cities across the country where the ordeal has occurred,” said David John, NSS Director of Public Relations.
