The ongoing cyberbullying of Ambassador Monica Achol Abel Aguek, President Salva Kiir Mayardit’s envoy to the Middle East and Gulf nations, presents South Sudan with exactly such a test. It is about whether digital anarchy will be allowed to mock state authority with impunity, or whether the law will assert itself to protect institutions, national cohesion, and public order. If such conduct goes unpunished, the message is clear and dangerous: state authority can be ridiculed without consequence. Ambassador Achol Abel Aguek represents South Sudan in a strategically important diplomatic region. South Sudan stands at a crossroads.
