Residents of Bor Municipality in Jonglei State are asking their local government to close the only cemetery in town, as it’s now overflowing with graves. The most affected residential areas in Bor are Block Ten and Wut-Chol-Jok in Bor where people say dead bodies are now being buried on the roadside. They say the graveyard has also become a dumping ground dead animals such as cows, dogs, pigs, and cats who are left to rot in the open.
