Corruption and Political Crisis in South Sudan
South Sudan is facing a grim situation due to corruption, flooding, and political chaos, which may lead to another war.
According to The Sentry, an investigative group, the country's leaders are misusing public resources through "off-budget schemes, single-source contracts, and the manipulation of public procurement processes."
The diversion of public funds has left citizens without basic services and fueled local conflicts, creating a zero-sum competition for power marked by the mobilization of ethnicities and the creation of various militia groups in the country.
The United Nations has also warned that corruption and political paralysis are pushing South Sudan to the brink of another war, echoing The Sentry's concerns.
Residents have been traveling to find better living conditions since 2011, highlighting the need for urgent action to address the crisis.
