South Sudan president's 12 year old son has a 25% stake in mining company

South Sudan, like many countries, has laws guarding against nepotism. But according to The Sentry’s investigations, Kiir regularly doled out stakes in companies to close family members – including a 12-year-old son.

Kiir’s family have held stakes in holding companies and banks. His wife has a 50 percent stake in a prominent telecoms company that used to be owned by the investment arm of former Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi’s government. The other 50 percent is held by one of her sons. The company in which Kiir’s 12-year-old has a 25 percent stake was set up in February this year.

The South Sudanese are related to Ethiopians and Somalis if you remove their Middle Eastern component, lol.

Nilotics = corrupt, failures, chaotic, prone to violence.

Seems like all the Nilo infleunced countries are a failure, while the pure Bantu/Niger-Congo ones like Botswana, Angola, Nigeria are doing better.

You know what they say. African leaders are prisoners for tomorrow. Let them give share to their sons and daughters for the money that they don't sweat.
