AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Fuel Prices Bite Hard: South Sudanese motorists and commuters report another sharp petrol jump—SSP 18,500 per litre in Juba, SSP 20,000 in Yambio, and up to SSP 23,000 on the black market—pushing transport and food costs higher. Elections & Hate Speech: Civil society leader Edmund Yakani urged restraint and rejection of hate speech ahead of the December 2026 polls, warning inflammatory rhetoric can fuel violence. Party Politics: SPLM launched membership registration in Central Equatoria, with leaders calling for unity and wider participation of women and youth beyond campaigns. Oil Finance Pressure: A partial settlement with BB Energy eased a London court bar on new oil-backed loans, but highlighted how much the economy depends on future crude revenue. Abyei Vote Dispute: Abyei residents protested being barred from South Sudan elections, rejecting Sudan’s claims and the NEC’s constituency decisions. Ebola Travel Curbs: The US expanded Ebola-related restrictions tied to the DRC, including a 21-day third-country requirement for travelers before boarding to the US. Digital Skills Push: Internet Society trained youth in Yei on responsible internet use and safer online communication. Regional Risk Watch: Experts warn the Greater Horn could face a major polycrisis as El Niño effects and conflict-driven price pressures collide.
