Fifty-five community animal health workers have successfully completed a four-week training on livestock disease management. Indian peacekeepers based in Malakal provided the capacity building to the health workers with mostly four-legged clients.

Owiny-Kibul, some 60 kilometres from Magwi, towards the Ugandan border, used to be a peaceful village. That was before the Nyachigak military academy and training centre were established in the vicinity, about five years ago.
