Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>A civil society activist said the transitional government has not given due attention to the implementation of financial management reforms as required by the revitalized peace agreement.<\/p>\n

Chapter Four of the 2018 peace accord talks about resource, economic and financial management.<\/p>\n

It outlines that political leaders and stakeholders shall ensure that the unity government is transparent and accountable, with legal, institutional, policies and procedures fully functional for sustainable development.<\/p>\n

The article also stipulates the establishment of an effective leadership and commitment in the fight against corruption.<\/p>\n

\u201cAny leader found to have condoned or engaged in corrupt practices shall be held accountable and<\/p>\n

barred from holding public office in accordance with this Agreement and the law,\u201d partly quotes the chapter.<\/p>\n

Lorna Merekaje, Secretary General of South Sudan Democratic Engagement, Monitoring and Observation Program \u2013 said the clause is critical for economic development of the country.<\/p>\n

She, however, stated that most of the provisions of the financial management reforms are yet to be implemented.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur assessment as civil society is that the implementation of the agreement has not been sufficient,\u201d Ms. Merekaje said on Eye Radio\u2019s Dawn Show on Monday.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you look at chapter four, you would clearly see that there are several things that needed to be done, under chapter and they have not been done.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI would say that chapter four has not been actually sufficiently implemented, or even given the due attention, given the importance of issues that chapter four is raising.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the peace agreement, the transitional government shall develop a code of ethics and integrity for public officials emphasizing the values of honesty and integrity.<\/p>\n

In addition, it shall expand the curriculum in the educational system to inculcate the spirit of nationalism and promote the values of honesty, integrity and respect for public property.<\/p>\n

Further, the R-TGoNU is mandated to establish a high-level, competent and effective oversight mechanism that shall control revenues collection, budgeting, revenue allocation and expenditure.<\/p>\n

The oversight mechanism may solicit technical and advisory resources on economic governance from the regional and international community.<\/p>\n

However, non of the provisions in the chapter have been implemented.<\/p>\n
