Kiir also dismissed the governor of central bank Dier Tong Ngor and named Moses Makur Deng as the new governor of the bank.<\/p>\n<p>Kiir did not give reason as to why he replaced the central bank chief who has since introduced wide-ranging reforms to the financial markets last April, including a requirement that commercial banks quote a single foreign exchange rate to limit market distortions.<\/p>\n<p>In a separate decree, Kiir also fired the First Undersecretary for Finance and Planning Ochum Genes Karlo, and replaced him with Simon Ladu. In yet another decree, Kiir named Ochum as the new undersecretary for the ministry of trade and industry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
