Juba – July 1st, 2024, In a statement released today, Integrity South Sudan, an organization dedicated to transparency and accountability, has expressed deep concern over the delay in reconstituting the South Sudan Anti-Corruption Commission. This delay not only hampers the fight against corruption but also violates the peace agreement, as stipulated in Chapter IV, Article 4.4 and 4.4.1.7.

“The government’s failure to promptly reconstitute the Anti-Corruption Commission is a hindrance to tackling corruption effectively and undermines the peace agreement,” said Lodiong David Lubang, Communication & Media officer at Integrity South Sudan.

The peace agreement mandates that within two months of the transitional period, the President, in consultation with the First Vice President and Vice Presidents, nominates the head of the Anti-Corruption Commission for approval by the Transitional National Legislative Assembly (TNLA).

While acknowledging the passage of the South Sudan Anti-Corruption Commission policy by the parliament, critical challenges such as funding constraints and landlord disputes persist, hindering the commission’s operations.

“Without adequate resources, the commission is unable to carry out investigations, enforce anti-corruption measures, or engage in preventive efforts, thereby impeding progress in fighting corruption,” added Lubang.

Integrity South Sudan calls upon the government to expedite the reconstitution process, allocate necessary resources, and promptly address the rental arrears issue to provide a conducive working environment for the commission.

“The fight against corruption is essential for the development and stability of our nation. It is imperative that the government takes immediate action to support the Anti-Corruption Commission in fulfilling its mandate,” emphasized Lubang.

Integrity South Sudan is an independent organization dedicated to promoting integrity, accountability, and good governance. The organization collaborates with stakeholders to build a transparent and corruption-resistant society.

Kenya/March 19, 2025
The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) today hosted a delegation from the South Sudan Anti-Corruption Commission (SS-ACC), led by Hon. Samuel Jock Bany Mading, the Deputy Board Chairperson of SS-ACC. The delegation is currently in the country for a benchmarking exercise aimed at gaining insights into the investigation and prosecution of corruption and economic crimes cases.

The discussion emphasized the need for a coordinated and concerted approach to tackling corruption, given that such crimes are often transnational in nature. They acknowledged the importance of joint efforts between Kenya and South Sudan to effectively address the menace of corruption in both nations.

The delegation was also introduced to the Uadilifu case management system, a cutting-edge digital solution developed by the ODPP. The system has revolutionized the management of case files, enabling the ODPP to process cases more efficiently and significantly reducing turnaround times.

Additionally, the delegation was briefed on the Mutual Legal Assistance Act, which plays a critical role in facilitating the extradition of fugitives to face charges in the countries where they committed their crimes. The Act also supports the facilitation of witnesses to testify, regardless of their location, further strengthening the fight against corruption and economic crimes.

We are pleased to share that our Deputy Chairperson and Executive Director are currently in Qatar to participate in the meetings of State Parties to the United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC).

This important visit reflects our continued commitment to strengthening international cooperation, promoting transparency, and advancing global efforts in the fight against corruption.

We look forward to the valuable engagements, knowledge exchange, and partnerships that will emerge from this participation.
