SOUTH SUDAN’S FUTURE HANGS IN BALANCE: Why President Kiir’s Impeachment is Imperative

16th July, 2025

Will the Parliament Listen to the People and Impeach President Kiir?

As the Transitional National Legislative Assembly of South Sudan prepares to reconvene, Advocate Kenyi Y.A. Kenyi has issued a powerful call to action, urging lawmakers to initiate impeachment proceedings against President Salva Kiir Mayardit. With the president set to address Parliament, Kenyi emphasises the urgent need for accountability and constitutional responsibility.

In a strongly worded statement, Kenyi outlines eight compelling grounds for impeachment, including:

  1. Erosion of National Sovereignty: Allowing foreign mercenaries and military equipment into the country, facilitating state-sponsored violence and ethnic cleansing.
  2. Inciting Ethnic Divisions: Using tribal rhetoric to divide the population, consolidate power, and marginalise communities.
  3. Abuse of Power: Undermining institutions, acting above the law, and defying constitutional norms.
  4. Violating the Peace Agreement: Systematically delaying and violating key provisions of the Revitalised Peace Agreement.
  5. Corruption and Money Laundering: Plundering public funds through illicit dealings and large-scale money laundering schemes.
  6. Illegal Land Grabbing: Orchestrating land seizures for personal and political gain, violating citizens' rights.
  7. Physical and Mental Infirmity: Questioning the president's capacity to discharge his duties due to concerns about his physical and mental health.
  8. Weaponization of State Institutions: Transforming security forces and the judiciary into instruments of repression, targeting opponents and suppressing dissent.

Kenyi's statement serves as a stark reminder of the need for accountability and justice in South Sudan. As lawmakers return to Parliament, they face a critical choice: uphold their constitutional mandate and protect the nation's future or prioritise party loyalty and personal interests.

"The future of our nation depends on your willingness to rise above party loyalty, tribal allegiances, or fear," Kenyi warns. "History will not judge you by your speeches, but by your actions."

With the fate of South Sudan hanging in the balance, Kenyi's call to action demands attention. Will the lawmakers take decisive action to address the president's alleged wrongdoings, or will they falter under the weight of politics and personal interests? The clock is ticking.

MAGWI COUNTY UNDER CATTLE ATTACKS AGAIN.

    File Image July 11, 2025. To the Commissioner,  Magwi County Magwi County Maize Crops under Cattle Attack Again I am writing to inform you that Magwi County is once again facing an attack by cattle driven by the Dinka Balalo of Uganda. This is a direct result of an evacuation in response to the President's executive order aimed at stopping cattle-related conflicts in the Acholi region of Northern Uganda. As you may recall, the last conflict in Magwi County, which occurred in February, claimed lives and was not an isolated incident. Similar conflicts have recurred since 2014, when the Dinka Balalo from Bor forcefully entered Magwi County and the Equatoria region. Hon, you and the Magwi County community need to be aware of the potential resettlement of cattle in our lands. Our county's livelihood depends on its fertile soil, whereas the Dinka Balalo's survival relies on milk production. I urge you and your security team to remain vigilant and prevent any cattle ...

IN HIS FOOTSTEPS: The Characters of A Leader's Heart

Meta AI "This is a faithful saying: If a man desires the position of a bishop, he desires a good work." 1 Timothy 3:1-7 Devotion 10. July 10, 2025 God's Design for Leadership   God alone is omniscient and sovereign. He designed leadership with specific character traits, appointing humanity to steward the world on His behalf. As we progress through Scripture, we observe God's design for leadership and the character traits required of each individual.   For example, He denied Saul leadership despite the pressure from the people. He chose David from among Jesse's children because David met His criteria, possessing the character and qualities worthy of leadership. In leadership, there are specific characteristics that leaders must embody to lead God's people. Paul listed these qualities in his letter to Timothy, emphasizing integrity, humility, and servanthood as essential for leading the church of God.   The Contrast Between God's Design and the Worl...

ESTABLISH A SEPARATE AND INDEPENDENT DINKA KINGDOM WITHIN THEIR TERRITORIES.” Advocate Kenyi Advises President Kiir

Advocate & human rights lawyer Kenyi YA Kenyi said that Salva Kiir has long abandoned the national interest of South Sudan and instead chosen to pursue a narrow and divisive tribal agenda. From the time he was appointed deputy—based on tribal considerations—during the liberation struggle to all his subsequent roles within the regime, Kiir has consistently implemented policies that prioritize the interests of one ethnic group: the Jieng (Dinka), at the direct expense of the other 63 tribes of South Sudan.   Through his actions and appointments, he has systematically planted the seeds of division, ethnic discord, and mistrust among our people. Under his leadership, South Sudan—a sovereign nation built by the collective sacrifice of 64 tribes—has been reduced to what increasingly appears to be an absolute Jieng Kingdom, with Salva Kiir acting as its self-declared King.   If Kiir remains committed to advancing his tribal project, then we are left with no option but to gran...
