Comrades… I don’t even know how to start this but I need to share something painful and urgent.

These past few days in Juba have been so heavy. We’ve been struggling to pay the remaining 200 usd of our 900 usd rent so the caretaker can reconnect our water. Thanks to the incredible support from kind comrades, we managed to pay 700 usd and he turned our WiFi and electricity back on. That helped a little but without water even the smallest things…cooking, washing, bathing…feel impossible. We’re doing our best to survive.

Then something I never imagined happened.

Three of my girls pretty, olivia and charity left the house to fetch water like we used to do before the attack. I expected them to be back in a few hours… but they never returned.

I spent three sleepless nights searching, asking around and walking everywhere my fear could imagine. Nothing I was shaking, praying someone had at least seen them.

Today, I went to the nearest police post to report them missing. One officer told me he knew where they were. My whole body went cold. I begged him to take me to them. After he spoke with another officer, they directed me to where my girls were being held. Right now, I’m at the police station, waiting. I haven’t been allowed to see or speak to them yet. I don’t know their condition or what they’ve been through. I’m just praying they’re safe.

Please keep us in your thoughts. I’ll update you as soon as I can.
