South Sudan remains without a democratic election since gaining independence over a decade ago, as scheduled polls have been delayed for a second time. Political instability and unresolved disputes continue to hinder the country’s transition to regular democratic processes. With no clear timeline for voting, concerns grow over governance and public representation in the world’s newest nation. The repeated postponements raise questions about the future of democracy in a country still grappling with post-conflict challenges.
South Sudan has not held elections since independence in 2011 - polls have twice been postponed.
