Juba, January 25, 2017 (SSNA) – The Republic of South Sudan has been named in a Transparency International’s annual report as one of the world’s most corrupt nations.
The report ranked Somalia most corrupt, followed by South Sudan, North Korea, and Syria.
Transparency International says its rankings is done based a mix of government and business sources.
South Sudan has in the past been accused of massive corruption with some experts describing the young nation as a country run by a “kleptocratic regime.”

It is sad to learn but not surprised.
South Sudan should have taken the first position as the most corrupt country than Somalia since Dinka are born to steal
the all nation not for the tribe ,And put it in you mind that Dinka were not born to steal.
Lo Yei my brother,”Dinka are born to steal” is a hate speech…these kinds of statement has deepen hatred and violence among us South Sudanese, your words should attack the politicians not a tribe, since every tribe has innocent people among them…beware of dangers of hate speech my brother
John
You are right people should stop bad comments about dinka because there are Dinka’s who are innocent but targeted. This action will not bring peace in south Sudan.
You coward you should accept that Dinkas are born to rule, steal,rape, loot,land gripers, killers and all sorts of evils are theirs.
You are truly right. There is corruption “yes” but it is not done by only Dinka. It is now a nation wide practice
Yes you are right my bro John di ka likes any trip in south Sudan
That is right South Sudan should be on the top list of corrupted countries. Because today u have nothing tomorrow when u get assignment u built storey, v8 shops, and thousand of cows. How much is his/her salary per a month.
This is information gathered and published by enemy of people of south Sudan, what is true is that RSS is at war. No corruption in south sudan and that is true
You are so sick in your belly. It is a shame for you to deny ongoing corruption in RSS for years and blamed that on war. Be ashamed for one minute in your life
Corruption, nepotism, money laundering and other forms of stealing is infested in the government fabric. To top the list of most corrupt countries, indicates the absence of a system that governs the country all across the board.
I expect South Sudan would have been ranking number one than Somalia and Syria in corruption leave a lone fighting struggling for power,
Military government ,Business government are always corrupted.
So sad that poor countries are also the most corrupt
The only solution is federal system in southsudan to stop the steal of money. If any state want to steal their money in their state will be ok or if they keep fighting in their state, I will be happy because is not fighting in my state.

Comment * very, very great sorry for those who wanted to betray my nation South Sudan. Look at you. You commented like that but you are the most corrupted. Sorry may GOD the Almighty take account on you all. Amen. You are the central of corruption. Dinka people are the most patriotism of this nation. If you can’t believe, the proverb is “when the wind blows, it pass on the rock but not inside” why? South Sudan is the land of Eden that mean South Sudan is the land that flows of milk and honey. Very blessed one. South Sudan is at the right hand of GOD the Almighty. But for those of you who want to betray it are devils of it that is why you did a such a things and comment like that and said none sences Dinka, Dinka. I am tied of your devil words. Otherwise. Sorry GOD will eliminate you one by one immediately. You will be like a certain man who want to boom South Sudan to be sarrah. Where is he now? South Sudan is the most peaceful and powerful country by politically, economically, socially and military. All above comments of yours are liars and non-senses.
You make me happy tho.
The only weapon is only prayer even if people speak hateful speeches it will not work cos the bible is very clear to time for everything friends let us read the bible let us not hate each other cos it will not have help
Comment *WE ARE PEACE LOVERS AND THIS MUST BE INTRODUCED IN SOUTH SUDAN TO BREAK DOWN HONES OF THOSE WHO HAVE LONG AND TALL HONES
The above reported don’t even mentioned Dinka or any tribes of South Sudan, it mentioned the Country as 2nd most corrupt Country in the World, I am sorry about your tribal comments all the times.
If one thinks they are born to rule, they should also consider “born to take responsibility”.
This corruption is the responsibility of those misfits who think they are born to rule when in reality they are born to steal.
South sudan is ahell of Africa..
Those officials who think the government is theirs will one day explain to the citizens in election time. If any politician want support should stop corruption and start delivering services to the people of south Sudan.
The reason why there are no remedies for ending conflicts and bring about lasting peace in South Sudan is because people are being are being deceived to concentrate and focus on the conflict while politician loot this country, if they ensure peace they will be ask for accountability hence escalating conflicts.
