Here is why -
An group of armed people killed at least five individuals and injured others in a roadside ambush near Payawa along the Yei-Kaya Road. According to some survivors, these killings happened as a result of a warning given earlier by the attackers during a previous road ambush which left two commercial vehicles burned to ashes 16 miles from Yei along the Yei-Kaya Road. According to one of the chiefs in Mugwo Payam, one body was transported to the town while the others are still lying on the ground.
