🚨 Political drama unfolds in Juba as President Salva Kiir shakes up South Sudan's leadership! State TV announced late Monday that Interior Minister Angelina Teny – a key opposition figure and wife of detained First Vice President Riek Machar – has been replaced by veteran politician Aleu Ayieny Aleu. 💼
Aleu, who previously held the interior portfolio from 2013-2015 and later governed Warrap state, returns to the hot seat amid growing political friction. The move comes as part of a broader cabinet reshuffle affecting multiple senior officials.
📉 Teny's influence reportedly waned after her husband's house arrest in March 2025, with her deputy handling most ministry operations since then. Analysts suggest this reshuffle could signal shifting alliances ahead of crucial peace agreement milestones.
🌍 With 60% of South Sudan's population under 25, young citizens are closely watching these developments through social media platforms like #SouthSudanWatch. As one Twitter user put it: 'Cabinet musical chairs – but the stakes are life and death.'
