    Hello i am oteka erick a university student from the new nation of south sudan.
    I was admitted on government scholarship in one of the universities of south sudan;
    but being in the youngest nation as such ha got so many challenges affecting my education
    in this country as mentioned below:
    1)Lack of lecturers to give lecture.
    2)In adequate accommodation for students
    3)Tribal conflict among the students them self and within the surrounding community.
    4)In adequate government support for students in terms of feeding,stocking of library,security
    for students.etc
    All these has led to poor education system in south sudan especially in higher education.
    Since i joined the university,we studied in first year only in 2010 but due to the problems mentioned above ,
    the university was closed down up to date and we see our future dark in this situation,but i wish you could admit me here or connect me to
    a willing sponsor to support my education.

    Thanks.

    NB;I have not attach my document here but i can do so when there is need.(otekaerick@yahoo.com)
