 AU urges de-escalation as fighting displaces over 180,000 in South Sudan’s Jonglei state The Chairperson of the African Union Commission called for immediate de-escalation and strict adherence to South Sudan’s 2018 peace agreement, as renewed fighting in Jonglei State displaced more than 180,000 people and raised fears of further civilian harm. In a statement, African Union Commission Chairperson Mahmoud Ali Youssouf said he was deeply concerned by the deteriorating security situation in parts of the country, particularly Jonglei, where escalating violence and inflammatory rhetoric have put civilians—including women and children—at heightened risk. South Sudanese authorities estimate the number of displaced in Jonglei at more than 180,000, the United Nations humanitarian agency OCHA said last week.

 ANAMBRA STATE GOVERNMENT REITERATES MANDATORY STAFF ATTENDANCE ACROSS CIVIL SERVICE.

The Commissioner for Power and Water Resources, Engr. Julius Chukwemeka, has reiterated the directive of the Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, mandating all civil servants in the state to report to work consistently on all official working days.


Engr. Chukwemeka emphasized that the practice of staying away from work—particularly on Mondays under the guise of the “sit-at-home” order must come to an end. He made this declaration during a management meeting with Heads of Departments held at the conference room of the Ministry of Power and Water Resources, Awka.


The commissioner further said that effective from February 2026, the payment of salaries to civil servants will be based on a pro-rata system, strictly tied to verified attendance and the actual number of days worked.


He warned that no staff member is permitted to write or sign the attendance register on behalf of another staff. Any officer found engaging in such acts will face disciplinary measures, including possible dismissal.


Engr. Chukwemeka said that any staff member absent from duty on medical grounds must formally notify the ministry in writing and submit a certified medical report for verification.


He also noted that any staff member who feels unable to comply with these requirements is advised to formally tender a resignation letter.


The Commissioner reminded staff that official resumption time is 8:00 a.m. daily, and that the attendance register will be closed by 9:00 a.m. each day and forwarded to the appropriate authority for necessary action.


The Anambra State Government remains committed to strengthening discipline, accountability, and improved service delivery across the civil service.
