AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Telecom Costs: South Sudan’s National Communication Authority approved phased telecom tariff adjustments, with phone and internet charges set to rise from midnight June 26 as operators face inflation, pound depreciation, and limited foreign currency. Regulatory Oversight: The NCA board also endorsed additional measures to keep the telecom sector viable and ensure uninterrupted national connectivity. Food Prices Relief: Abyei launched subsidized sorghum sales, selling a 4kg tin at 12,000 SSP versus 22,000–25,000 SSP in markets, with sales planned twice weekly until August. Aviation & Humanitarian Access: Civil Aviation officials inspected the newly completed Leer Airstrip in Unity State, saying it will support humanitarian operations and improve local connectivity. Public Service Payroll Integrity: Government launched a headcount and biometric registration for organised forces to remove “ghost workers” and strengthen payroll integrity, with World Bank support. Education & Community Support: Young women in Aweil East are set to launch “Talk to Your Daughter” to keep girls in school and push back against early/forced marriage. Elections & Dialogue: The African Diplomatic Corps renewed calls for inclusive dialogue ahead of South Sudan’s December 2026 elections, while an editorial urged government to start an interparty dialogue process. Business & Labour Rights: An opinion argues equal pay and an end to wage exploitation are urgent for South Sudan’s workforce.
