AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Banking & Cash Flow: South Sudan’s Economic Cluster lifted the 10 million SSP cash withdrawal cap, aiming to ease the liquidity crunch and rebuild confidence in formal banking, though banks still face cash shortages. Telecom Costs: The National Communication Authority approved a phased tariff exchange-rate adjustment, adding 70 SSP to a one-minute call cost, with operators warning the sector’s sustainability is at stake. Mining & Minerals Governance: South Sudan backed a new Africa Minerals Strategy Group charter after Abuja ratification, while Nigeria’s Mining Cadastre Office pledged technical support to strengthen South Sudan’s mining cadastre system. Local Mining Disputes: Eastern Equatoria Governor Louis Lobong temporarily suspended mining operations in Nakere after community unrest over environmental damage and limited local benefits. Food Security: Abyei expanded subsidised maize sales to Alal and Mijak at 12,000 SSP per 4kg tin, as prices rise. Infrastructure for Trade & Aid: Leer County received its first concrete airstrip, built by WFP with UK support, to improve humanitarian access and emergency response. Health Watch: South Sudan confirmed no Ebola cases after seven suspected infections tested negative, citing active surveillance. Governance & Elections: The December 22 election date faces renewed scepticism over legal gaps, funding, and voter registration readiness.
