JUBA — President Salva Kiir Mayardit on Monday evening issued a republican decree dismissing Maj. Gen. Akol Ayii Madut from his position as the Commissioner-General of South Sudan Customs Service.
The decree readout on the state-own South Sudan Broadcasting Corporation (SSBC) did not immediately cite reasons for the sacking.
The president did not, as well, name a replacement.
Gen. Akol’s removal comes exactly two years after a presidential economic crisis management committee recommended the immediate dismissal of the customs chief over apparent allegations of corruption.
Kiir had formed the committee headed by Vice-President James Wani Igga two days earlier with the task to manage economic crisis and streamlining the collection of non-oil revenues.
The president did not however remove Gen. Akol as recommended by the committee.
