VP. Dr. Bol Mel 

‎

In a significant political development, Dr. Benjamin Bol Mel, Vice President of the Republic of South Sudan and Chairperson of the Economic Cluster, has officially been sworn in as the First Deputy Chairperson of the Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM).

‎

‎Speaking during the swearing-in ceremony in Juba, Dr. Bol Mel described his new role not as a personal honor, but a solemn "call to duty." He pledged to serve with loyalty, discipline, and dedication under the leadership of SPLM Chairperson and President, H.E. Salva Kiir Mayardit.

‎

‎In his remarks, Dr. Bol Mel paid tribute to his predecessor, Professor James Wani Igga, and acknowledged the contributions of SPLM veterans including Comrades Daniel Awet Akot and Kuol Manyang Juuk.

‎

‎He also expressed deep gratitude to the party’s founders, senior comrades, and veteran members for their courage and sacrifice, promising to carry their legacy forward. "You walked through fire to lift our nation from bondage to independence," he said. "I honour your service, respect your wisdom, and vow to carry forward the torch you lit."

‎

‎Looking ahead to the 2026 general elections, Dr. Bol Mel outlined SPLM’s strategic roadmap, emphasizing grassroots mobilization, strengthening of party structures at all levels, and reactivating the SPLM Diaspora.

‎

‎He also reaffirmed the SPLM’s commitment to President Kiir’s national vision particularly the promise that South Sudan “will never return to war.” His priorities include boosting agriculture, encouraging investment, and improving public sector welfare by ensuring regular salary payments for civil servants and organized forces.

‎

‎Promising to be the President’s "engine for development," Dr. Bol Mel concluded with a unifying call:


‎“Now is the time to rise, to rebuild, and to reclaim the SPLM’s place as the beating heart of this nation.”

‎

‎With a renewed leadership team and a clear roadmap, the SPLM is positioning itself as a driving force in shaping South Sudan’s future.
