Nile Petroleum Corporation (Nilepet) facing such a crisis is a significant indicator of financial instability. If the company is paying staff salaries in food items, it likely means they are struggling with liquidity, possibly due to:

1. Declining Oil Revenues – If global oil prices have dropped or production has been disrupted, revenue generation could be affected.

2. Mismanagement or Corruption – There have been past concerns about financial mismanagement in state-owned enterprises.

3. Government Debt & Economic Challenges – If the government relies heavily on oil revenues, broader economic struggles could impact Nilepet's financial stability.

4. Operational Costs & High Debts – If the company has high operational expenses and debts, it may be struggling to pay workers in cash.

This situation raises concerns about the long-term sustainability of the company and the overall economic outlook for South Sudan, given its dependence on oil revenues

In the recent African Union Commission (AUC) Chairperson election held on February 15, 2025, Djibouti's Foreign Minister, Mahamoud Ali Youssouf, was elected as the new leader, succeeding Moussa Faki of Chad. Youssouf secured the position after seven rounds of voting during the AU summit in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

Kenya's candidate, former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, was eliminated in the sixth round of voting. Despite leading in the initial rounds, Odinga garnered 22 votes in the sixth round, while Youssouf received 26. Following this, Odinga withdrew from the race, paving the way for Youssouf to achieve the required two-thirds majority in the subsequent round.

President William Ruto of Kenya had been a strong advocate for Odinga's candidacy, engaging in extensive diplomatic efforts to rally support across the continent. These efforts included bilateral meetings with various African leaders to promote Odinga's vision for the AU.

Following the election results, President Ruto expressed his gratitude to African leaders for considering Odinga's candidacy and extended his congratulations to Youssouf and his deputy, Selma Haddadi. He pledged Kenya's full support to the new AUC leadership, emphasizing a commitment to collaborative progress within the African Union.

Raila Odinga graciously accepted the outcome, congratulating Youssouf on his victory and expressing hope that the election results would strengthen democracy in Africa.

Youssouf, who has served as Djibouti's Foreign Minister since 2005, now faces significant challenges as the new AUC Chairperson, including addressing military juntas in West Africa and violent conflicts in regions like eastern Congo. The African Union has previously faced criticism over its handling of armed conflicts across the continent, and Youssouf's leadership will be pivotal in navigating these complex issues.

"No response is a response. It's a powerful one"

Silence itself speaks volumes. Whether intentional or not, the lack of a response can be a powerful statement, conveying emotions like disapproval, disappointment, or a deliberate choice to step away. Sometimes, what isn’t said carries more weight than words, prompting reflection and forcing others to acknowledge the unspoken message. When used wisely, silence becomes a tool for both self-preservation and influence.

Do you think there's a way the public or professionals like yourself can push for merit-based appointments?

It's a major concern that many South Sudan people have raised several time—appointments that doesn't essentially align with a person's skills or educational background can weaken institutions.

When a such leaders without relevant experience head ministries, it can lead to poor decision-making, inefficiency and a lack of long-term strategic planning.

It's a major issue and isn't exceptional to South Sudan, but its impact is particularly severe in a country that needs economic stability, strong governance and institutional development.

If such institutions are led by people with the right expertise, they can effectively implement policies, manage resources better and drive real progress. If not, the institutions risk becoming ineffective, leading to delayed improvement, mismanagement and even the loss of public trust.

President Kiir Mayadit needs to prioritize merit-based appointments to ensure that government institutions function effectively and serve people efficiently.
