AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Elections Countdown: President Salva Kiir dissolved South Sudan’s transitional unity government at midnight, removing five vice presidents, ministers, and assemblies, and said a caretaker administration will run the state until the December 22 vote. Election Law Overhaul: The move follows amendments to the National Elections Act that let Kiir keep constitutional powers during the election period while elections proceed without completing a permanent constitution or national census. Security Tightening: Juba saw a heavy military presence as officials warned against a political vacuum and urged calm during the transition. Civic Space Warning: Authorities were urged to protect civic space and ensure people can vote and stand freely, safely, and equally. NEC Preps: The National Elections Commission unveiled voter registration books and swore in Gabriel Bol Deng Majok as NEC chair, pushing preparations forward. Humanitarian Tensions: South Sudan rejected U.S. claims about the humanitarian operating environment, saying concerns should be handled through specific channels. Economy & Control: The Bank of South Sudan banned forex deals with unauthorised dealers, while the SSRA launched a digital tax audit module to curb revenue leakages. Local Crime: One suspected robber was shot dead in a botched fuel station robbery in Maracha.
