Rais wa Sudan Kusini, Salva Kiir, ameivunja rasmi serikali ya mpito na bunge la taifa, huku akiteua utawala wa muda wa kusimamia nchi kuelekea uchaguzi mkuu uliopangwa kufanyika Desemba 22. Hatua hiyo pia imegusa serikali za majimbo, mabunge ya majimbo na tawala za maeneo maalum ya kiutawala.
Kwa mujibu wa tangazo lililorushwa na televisheni ya taifa, Kiir ataendelea kuwa rais katika kipindi cha uchaguzi hadi rais mpya atakapokula kiapo. Mawaziri wa muda wameteuliwa kusimamia wizara muhimu zikiwemo ulinzi, usalama, fedha, mafuta, mambo ya ndani na mambo ya nje.
Hatua hiyo ni sehemu ya utekelezaji wa makubaliano ya amani ya mwaka 2018 yaliyomaliza vita vya wenyewe kwa wenyewe vilivyosababisha vifo vya maelfu ya watu. Hata hivyo, baadhi ya wachambuzi na makundi ya kutetea haki za binadamu wanaeleza wasiwasi kuhusu mazingira ya kisiasa yanayoelekea uchaguzi huo.
Makamu wa kwanza wa rais wa zamani, Riek Machar, ambaye anakabiliwa na mashtaka ya uhaini anayoyakanusha, bado yuko chini ya kifungo cha nyumbani, na haijulikani iwapo atashiriki katika uchaguzi huo. Hali hiyo imeongeza maswali kuhusu ushindani, uwazi na uhalali wa uchaguzi wa kwanza wa kitaifa tangu Sudan Kusini ipate uhuru mwaka 2011.

South Sudan President Salva Kiir dissolved his country’s transitional government, removing his deputies and introducing a caretaker administration ahead of elections on Dec 22.
The changes outlined in an executive decree were announced on state television Tuesday night. The order also dissolved the national legislature, the country’s 10 state governments and their assemblies, as well as authorities in three administrative areas.
Kiir, who will remain president throughout the electoral period until a new president is sworn in, appointed caretaker ministers to oversee key ministries including foreign affairs, defense, cabinet affairs, interior, justice, national security, finance, petroleum, information and peace building.
The transitional period and implementation of a 2018 peace agreement, which ended a deadly civil war, has been extended several times. The transitional government’s dissolution was envisaged as part of the road map to elections.
In previous orders, Kiir has alarmed observers by dismissing important officials. He fired the National Elections Commission chairperson on Sept. 15 without publicly giving a reason.
Kiir suspended Riek Machar as South Sudan’s first vice president last year after justice authorities filed criminal charges over Machar’s alleged role in an attack on a garrison of government troops. Machar’s treason trial is ongoing, and he denies the charges.
