South Sudanese Expressed Worrying Concerns About South Sudanese Chief Justice As He Attends SPLM Political Rally

Chief Justice, Chan Reec Madut Attending SPLM Political Rally In Wau. 

Top Trending News Today:





Chief Justice Chan Reec Madut found himself at the center of controversy after attending a political rally organized by the Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM) in Wau. 


South Sudanese citizens across the country have voiced their concerns, questioning the appropriateness of the Chief Justice's involvement in a political event.


The incident, which took place today in Western Bahr El Ghazal State, has sparked a heated debate regarding the violation of constitutional provisions. Citing specific sections of the Transitional Constitution of the Republic of South Sudan 2011 and the Political Parties Act, 2012, as amended, concerned citizens argue that the Chief Justice's participation in the SPLM campaign represents a breach of the law.


"The South Sudan Chief Justice, Hon. Chan Reec Madut, had been spotted participating at the SPLM campaign yesterday in Western Bahr El Ghazal State, which definitely amounts to the violation of the provision of articles 125(1), 139 (L),(M), 151(1) and section 15(2)(b) of the Transitional Constitution of the Republic of South Sudan 2011 and Political Parties Act, 2012 as amended, respectively," voiced one netizen on social media.


According to Article 125(1) of the Transitional Constitution, the Chief Justice is mandated to "exercise the judicial power of the Republic of South Sudan independently and without any interference." Additionally, articles 139 (L), (M), and 151(1) specifically prohibit justices from participating in political activities, in order to maintain their impartiality and safeguard the integrity of the judiciary.


The concerned netizens argue that the Chief Justice's presence at the SPLM rally raises questions about the separation of powers and the impartiality of the judiciary. They express fears that such involvement in political affairs could undermine the independence of the judiciary and compromise its ability to deliver fair and unbiased judgments.
