President Kiir Reappoints Telar Deng to his former post–Legal Advisor PaanLuel Wël 11 years ago Kiir returns Telar Deng to legal affairs advisory post September 17, 2013 (JUBA) – South Sudan president Salva Kiir Mayardit on Tuesday issued a decree reinstating Telar Riing Deng to an advisory post on legal affairs, reversing previous appointment as minister justice designate. Deng was among the new cabinet members appointed in August following the dissolution of the entire cabinet and the removal of Riek Machar Teny from the position he held for eight years as a vice-president. Critics say that the ministerial shake-up was the work of Deng, underlining that the majority of removed ministers had claimed his relieve from his influential post as state minister at the Sudanese presidency and his expulsion from the SPLM in 2007. South Sudan’s Kiir faces growing dissent as new state stumbles JUBA (Reuters) – Telsach Gad, a teacher in South Sudan, had high hopes for a better life when his country became independent in 2011 after decades of civil war with Khartoum. Two years later, he has lost all illusions. “The government hasn’t done anything to develop the country,” the unemployed Arabic instructor said, sitting with other jobless young men in a makeshift roadside cafe in the capital Juba. “We don’t have jobs, schools, hospitals.” Western donors and the U.N. have poured billions of dollars into South Sudan, which won independence after decades of war with northern rulers in Khartoum, becoming the world’s newest country and a large African oil producer in its own right.
