South Sudan, Juba, February 2014. IDP’s is South Sudan find a safe shelter at the UN compound in Juba, the UN House IDP Camp. Name: Joseph Met Age: 23 Location: UN HouseOrigin: Central Equatoria Residence: Yei Oxfam Support: WaterContext: An animated game of poker is in play on a mattress in the former UN store. The high half-moon shaped roof gives the building a larger than life feel. The building is filled with the joyful sound of children playing and men and women having animated discussions. The two large mesh walls on either side of the store allow for light and air to flow freely on the adjoining concrete walls and circulate. One cheer and multiple grunts erupt, signalling victory for one of the players. Not long after, another game is a foot. ‘I live and go to school in Yei. I don’t have marks on my face so I could stay there for a while before I had to leave. I had to keep safe while at home, and keep a low profile. When the chance came for me to leave, I left. I was with my elder brother. We travelled with some Dinkas, but they did not know we were Nuer because we don’t have marks. It took a day for us to reach the UN House, three days ago.’‘Staying in the camp is very difficult for us. We arrived very recently and this means that we do not have anything. We left everything in Yei but came to find that the camp was already full. There is no space for newcomers. That’s why we’re in all in this open building. It was the only thing available. Everyone else received supplies, but the late comers like us did not. We have no food or shelter. Security seems good in the camp. At least water is readily available. The rains start in March, and that worries me because this camp is not built for the rainy season.’‘It feels like we’re in prison here. I don’t what is happening outside this camp – how the situation is. I feel trapped because I can’t leave. I miss being at home and going to school - being able to do what I want.’‘The most difficult thing about this situation is that it erases all the progress that South Sudan has achieved in the past years. I had a lot of hope that we would develop slowly but surely into a great nation. Now that progress has disappeared, and so has the hope. Before we fought for our independence from the North and we were hopeful when we rightfully won the chance to be a new nation. But now, we’re fighting each other. This is really the most difficult part.’‘At the moment, I hope we’re able to receive support from the many organisations that I see around the camp. Apart from that, I really want peace to come back to my country. Not for a short time, forever. I don’t want to lose all the progress we’ve made as a people so far. I have hopes and dreams for myself as well and they can only happen if there is peace. I one day want to find a good woman that will agree to be my wife. I don’t want to start a family in an IDP camp.’ Photo: Petterik Wiggers/Panos Pictures |
