AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Central Banking Shake-up: President Salva Kiir swore in Dr. Addis Ababa Othow as Bank of South Sudan governor for the second time, urging urgent reforms to fix liquidity problems and restore confidence after staff strikes and unpaid salary arrears. Trade & Revenue Enforcement: A ministerial committee ordered security agencies on the Juba–Nimule Highway to stop intercepting commercial trucks to collect unofficial taxes and fees, directing revenue collection to authorized points at Nimule. Election Readiness Pressure: CEPO says public trust is slipping as December 2026 election preparations stall, citing delayed funding for voter education and worsening insecurity. Court Risk for Investors: A U.S. court recognized Qatar National Bank’s $1.02bn ICSID award against South Sudan, raising the risk of international enforcement if payment or settlement is not reached. Livelihoods & Women’s Income: In Juba, women were trained to make liquid soap to sell and strengthen savings groups, aiming to ease household pressures. Regional Health Cooperation: IGAD-backed talks in Nairobi support a framework for joint emergency medical procurement across multiple countries including South Sudan. Global Spotlight on Heritage: UNESCO inscribed South Sudan’s Boma-Badingilo Migratory Landscape as a World Heritage site, boosting international visibility for conservation and tourism potential.
