Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>South Sudan\u2019s Select Committee on Presidential Address to Transitional National Legislature has called on the government to name and shame officials implicated in corrupt practices in the Country.<\/p>\n

The committee said naming and shaming corrupt individuals will not only reduce the corruption but will also act as a lesson to others who might have such intentions.<\/p>\n

A report by the UN Commission on Human Rights in South Sudan released recently said that political elites had diverted more than $73 million from public coffers and resources without trace since 2018, with at least $39 million being stolen in just two months.<\/p>\n

Prof. George Bureng Nyombe, Chairperson for Committee called on the government to empower National Anti-Corruption Commission to boost the fight against corruption in the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo name and shame and public the names of those who were convicted of corruption and recover all stolen assets,\u201d Nyombe said in a recommendation of the committee presented to parliament on Monday in Juba. It recommended legal actions against corrupt public institutions and individuals across the country as well as monthly audit.<\/p>\n

\u201cImpose monthly audit of financial records of all public institutions in South Sudan and in the event of failure to comply, the Director-General of Audit Chamber in collaboration with Anti-Corruption Commission shall initial legal proceeding against an offending institution,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n

The committee stressed the need for the urgent establishment Public Procurement Act to deal with issues of goods and services and the contracting of works.<\/p>\n
