First, congratulations to you both for winning the trust of his excellency president Salva Kiir Mayardit. There’s no doubt you have what it takes to lead the Central bank.
At a glance, your academic qualifications, experience, and your former workplaces speak volumes. In a sentence, the right people are in the right place (South Sudan Central bank).
Do not let the president down. You’re favored to work for the people of South Sudan. So, get down to work without delay.
President Kiir made the right decision to appoint you as a crop of leaders for the South Sudan Central bank.
Johnny Ohisa, MSc, is the former 1st Deputy Governor for Policy & Banking. You previously worked for USAID in various capacities. So, you are qualified and competent.
Addis Ababa, Ph.D. is the current Managing Director of South Sudan Equity bank. You bring discipline, corporate knowledge and experience to the Central bank.
Two of you will be working closely with your former colleagues, the current Finance Minister, Dier Tong.
Please let synergy be your strength, perhaps a complimentary strategy to guide your performance and things his excellency wants you to achieve for the people of South Sudan.
Three of you have a wealth of experience, knowledge, and expertise needed to move the bank to the next level of performance.
Your jobs are in black and white.
Task 1: Curb inflation.
Task 2: Stabilize Exchange rate
Task 3: Avoid further SSP devaluation
Whether it is a contractionary monetary or expansionary monetary policy. Let it be guided by economics, not politics.
