The family was flown there in July 2019 from their home in Unity State, South Sudan by the Greater Pioneer Operating Company for medical tests but doctors told Ping's father Cornelious Mayak Geer that they didn't have the equipment to test for links between oil pollution and birth defects and Geer claims the company refused to pay for treatment.
