South Sudanese teenager jailed in UK after piloting migrant boat carrying 167 people across Channel

A 19-year-old South Sudanese national, Chan Mathok Atak, has been sentenced to two years and three months in prison in the United Kingdom for piloting a migrant boat carrying 167 people across the English Channel.

Atak, who is from South Sudan, was reportedly one of two pilots on the 13-metre-long “mega dinghy” that crossed from France to the UK in July.

The vessel, estimated to be about the length of a bus, was carrying a record 167 people when it was intercepted.

Atak pleaded guilty last month to piloting the boat. Prosecutors told Canterbury Crown Court that his actions created a risk of death or serious injury to those on board.

He was sentenced at Canterbury Crown Court on Friday.

The number of people arriving on a single migrant boat has since surpassed that record, with 230 people reportedly arriving in the UK on one vessel last month.

Meet Soka Sparta, the Gen Z dancehall artist to watch

South Sudan is seeing a new generation of young musicians who are taking the country’s music scene in new directions. Many Gen Z artists are releasing songs that are gaining attention on social media, particularly TikTok.

One of the emerging names is dancehall artist Soka Sparta, born Chol Kuol Thiek.

Soka Sparta began his musical journey in 2019 as a passionate freestyler on the streets of Shirkat. What started as street performances has grown into a serious musical career driven by his determination to represent the streets through music.

Speaking to Hot in Juba, Sparta said his sound is influenced by international dancehall artists Vybz Kartel and Tommy Lee Sparta. He also looks up to South Sudanese musicians Emmanuel Kembe and Nyankol Mathiang.

Soka Sparta says his music reflects the experiences, struggles, dreams and energy of South Sudan’s younger generation.

As a Gen Z artist, he says financial challenges and family restrictions remain among the obstacles he faces. Support from his cousin, however, continues to encourage him to pursue music.

His ambition is to build a lasting name in the streets and beyond, inspire the next generation and take South Sudanese dancehall to a wider audience.

Watch his music on YouTube and subscribe to his channel: https://youtu.be/f65PRZG0Y4Q
