A few days ago, I accused MTN South Sudan of robbing me through one of its staff members in Nimule. After I raised the complaint on my media platform, the headquarters intervened by conducting an investigation into the Nimule branch and taking disciplinary action against the staff member involved. I am pleased to have been part of the investigation process, which demonstrated a commitment to transparency. I would like to appreciate MTN South Sudan for taking my complaint seriously. Many citizens have experienced similar situations at the hands of some staff members, yet their concerns often go unheard. Having investigated the matter and warned the responsible staff, we hope that the illegal practice of overcharging customers for SIM cards will come to an end. As a result, SIM card prices should become more affordable and consistent across the country. I would also like to recommend the introduction of fixed and publicly advertised SIM card prices to prevent the deliberate exploitatio...

Between 2017 and 2019, I wrote several articles about the fraudulent practices of Kampala University. Those who were its students were aggressively defensive, only to concede later. This happened after the Ministry of Higher Education declared the university illegal. Although the students pursued a legal case against the university, they sadly lost. Education is a right for everyone, but a learning institution should provide quality and legitimate services to the public. In South Sudan, several universities and colleges are operating illegally and exploiting poor students. On 22 June 2026, Star International University (SIU) launched one of its campuses in Magwi Payam, making it the second campus after the Nimule campus, which was established around 2021–2022. Accordingly, this could be the third campus in Eastern Equatoria, including the Torit campus. Such rapid expansion raises serious questions about the credibility of the university. A credible learning institution cannot spread i...

While growing up, we used to hear that gray hair symbolizes wisdom. I do not know whether this is generally true or still applicable today, especially after Abednego allegedly deceived the whole world by declaring that elections will be held on 22 December 2026. Without fear or favor, the gray-haired man spoke boldly, as though he had already secured millions of dollars from the proceeds of the sale of Aida Hotel International. When will the old men of South Sudan stop lying and stealing peace from the younger generation? It is, however, alleged that he was compelled to announce these futile elections so that the remaining two million dollars from the purchase of the office could be siphoned away. The tragedy of South Sudan is not merely the absence of development; it is the abundance of promises. Every election season arrives with speeches, declarations, roadmaps, and assurances. Citizens are told that tomorrow will be better than today. Yet, year after year, the ordinary people remai...

Introduction. Wolfgang once said, "Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them to become what they are capable of being." — Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Advocates (INFJ) may be the rarest personality type, but they certainly leave their mark on the world. Idealistic and principled, they are not content to simply drift through life; they desire to stand up and make a difference. For Advocate personalities, success is not measured by money or status, but by seeking fulfilment, helping others, and being a force for good in the world. Despite their lofty goals and ambitions, Advocates should not be mistaken for idle dreamers. People with this personality type value integrity and are rarely satisfied until they have done what they know to be right. Conscientious to the core, they move through life with a clear sense of values and strive never to lose sight of what truly matters, not according to society or other people, but according to their own wisdom and ...

ELECTIONS! ELECTIONS! THAT IS A NEW SONG BY THE SPLM Fair elections involve competition among opposition parties that act as checks and balances. A fair election is free, inclusive, free from intimidation, and conducted through a transparent and participatory process. Such elections are only possible where a democratic multiparty system exists. South Sudanese politicians are insisting on holding elections. While elections are a good idea, they are difficult to conduct successfully when a single party drives the process without adequate preparations. What will elections bring if the same people in power return to power without being fairly elected? This is the question this article seeks to address. Will President Kiir bring new development if the people re-elect him? We all know that President Kiir has been in power for 21 years since 2005, except for those born after that year. His performance over these 21 years does not justify the argument that elections alone will bring peace ...
