SPLM Urges Soldiers and Civil Servants to Celebrate 16 May Despite Salary Delays.

The Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM) has called on members of the South Sudan People’s Defense Forces (SSPDF) and civil servants to tie their belts and celebrate 16 May despite the salary delay.

May 16, 2026, is a public holiday to commemorate the foundation of the SPLA, also known as the Sudan People's Liberation Army, in 1983. Bol Makueng Yol, SPLM spokesperson for the high-level committee for the 16 May celebration, called on soldiers to remain resilient.

“The message is not only directed at soldiers; even civil servants who have not received their salaries are included. It is the same message: we cannot surrender to the suffering and the chaotic situation imposed on us by the economy in this country,” Makueng said.

“We know that there is nothing permanent; anything bad will always come to an end, and even something good will also come to an end.
So, we are telling everybody to let us tie our belts and celebrate this. Something will happen; it will not always be without salaries,” he explains.
