JUST IN: President Kiir Dismisses Governor James Koang, Appoints Jacob Dollar Ruot as Upper Nile State Governor

-




‎Juba, South Sudan 

‎

President Salva Kiir Mayardit has issued a Republican decree relieving Governor James Koang Chuol Ranley of his duties as the Governor of Upper Nile State.

‎

‎In the same decree announced Friday evening on South Sudan Broadcasting Corporation (SSBC), the President appointed Jacob Dollar Ruot Kon as the new Governor of Upper Nile.

‎

‎The reasons behind Governor Koang’s dismissal were not immediately stated, but political observers say the move comes at a critical time as the country prepares for its first elections since independence, amid ongoing tensions in parts of Upper Nile.

‎

‎Who is Jacob Dollar Ruot?

‎Jacob Dollar Ruot is a senior member of the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM) and has previously served in various government positions. His appointment is seen as part of Kiir’s ongoing political reshuffle aimed at consolidating leadership in key states ahead of the electoral roadmap.

‎

‎Upper Nile: A State Under Pressure

‎Upper Nile State has been a hotspot for inter-communal violence and conflict-related displacement over the past decade. 

‎

Analysts believe the new governor will face mounting pressure to stabilize the state, restore public trust, and ensure security before the polls.

‎

‎The region also plays a pivotal role in South Sudan’s economy, hosting vital oil fields and serving as a strategic link to neighboring Sudan.

‎

‎Political Reactions Expected

‎Governor James Koang, a former military commander, has long been a key political player in the Upper Nile power balance. His removal may spark political realignments within the state and possibly stir reactions from his supporters.

‎

‎The appointment of Jacob Dollar Ruot is likely to dominate national discussions in the coming days, as citizens await the new governor’s approach to peacebuilding, governance, and service delivery in the troubled state.

‎ The Office of the President has dismissed public speculation surrounding Vice President Rebecca Nyandeng de Mabior’s recent assignment to oversee the Governance Cluster, clarifying that the move does not signal any change in the country’s executive hierarchy. ‎ ‎While addressing the media, Presidential Press Secretary Ambassador David Amuor said Nyandeng’s role is temporary and administrative, aimed at ensuring continuity of government operations following the suspension of First Vice President Dr. Riek Machar, who traditionally chairs the Governance Cluster. ‎ Amb. David, explained that the Council of Ministers had accumulated a backlog of pending memos and policy documents, many of which required urgent presentation and processing to avoid delays in governance and legislation. ‎ “This arrangement does not in any way alter the hierarchy of the Presidency,” Amb. David stressed. “Vice President Nyandeng is only facilitating the presentation and co-sharing of memos in Cabinet to ensure...

South Sudanese man who turned into a woman has finally spoken about his need for man to settle with. The South-South Sudanese man who goes by the name Paul Gatnoor, has found men hard to come by in the western world. Paul Gatnoor who hails from the Nuer tribe in South Sudan has decided to turn into a female since she can’t withstand the pressure of being a man. He was born a man but deep inside him, he was having the genes of a woman. Transgender is the challenge that the gender in which one is given has birth is not the exact gender that one has. This means that people who are born male can identify themselves as female since they don’t have the genes of being a male, this is what Paul Gatnoor is undergoing. They are sometimes also in other words identified as the gender queer. This only means they can not be categorized as female or male. Sometimes one might be comfortable addressing himself as a female rather than identifying yourself as a male. Gatnoor Paul w...
