🛑 BREAKING: Horizon Business Centre Committee Apologizes to President Kiir Over Program Error.
Juba, South Sudan — The Organizing Committee and Secretariat of the Horizon Business Centre Inauguration have issued an official apology to President Salva Kiir Mayardit for a typographical error in the event’s printed program that mistakenly referred to Vice President Gen. Dr. Benjamin Bol Mel as the President and Commander-in-Chief of the South Sudan People’s Defence Forces (SSPDF).
The Committee explained that the mistake occurred during last-minute revisions to the program after President Kiir delegated Vice President Bol Mel to represent him at the ceremony.
Upon discovery, the organizers made an official correction announcement during the event, attended by senior government officials and dignitaries, reaffirming proper protocol and respect for the high offices concerned.
In a statement, the Committee expressed deep regret over the oversight and extended apologies to the Office of the President, the Office of the Vice President, and all guests present. It further pledged to prevent similar errors in future official communications.
