Salva Kiir sacks South Sudan auditor:

… Involved in signing cheques that should have not been done by an auditor for the sake of promoting good accounting system, spending US dollar 160 per day for accommodation and feeding at Nile Comfort Hotel in Juba since the time he was appointed to head GoSS Audit Chamber and awarding unnecessary privileges for members of Audit Chamber amounting to 2000 US dollars per month on accommodations.
Wonderful! I give him two thumbs up for actually giving a damn. Someone else doesn’t. Ehm, ehm. But hey, sacking? That’s it? What about throwing them in jail for corruption or something?
