Otwel Akot Ajawin, from Palo in Panyidway, the Director of Agricultural Bank of the Sudan, passed away today, Friday 17th August, at 5:00 Pm at Khartoum Teaching Hospital. He has been ill for some months and was taken to Jordon for further treatment but with no improvement. His body shall be flown to Malakal tomorrow if all the arrangements got completed. He has been a courageous and a hard working man who did not bow down to Jilaba oppression during the hard times of war. He stood firm against those who wanted to destroy the Collo Kingdom and was never afraid to condemn their activities openly. He was a strong mobilize of the Youth and active member of the Collo Congregation of the Presbyterian church in Malakal. He leaves behind a wife and children, some of who are already in the university. May God rest his Soul in eternal peace and may he console his family and friends, especially the wife who is terribly grieved now. Amen.
