The Spark It Podcast EP 21: Riek Machar Trial Explained │Emmanuel Taban
In this episode of the Spark It Podcast, we break down the high-profile trial of South Sudan's First Vice President, Dr. Riek Machar Teny Dhurgon. Political analyst Emmanuel Taban explains the 2025 Nasir clashes, alleged links to the White Army, charges against Machar (treason, murder, crimes against humanity), and why a special court and media access matter. We unpack the constitutional confusion between the Transitional Constitution of South Sudan (2011) and the 2018 Revitalized Agreement for Resolution of Conflict in South Sudan (R-ARCSS). We also debate immunity claims, ask whether this is about justice or politics, and explore what this trial means for peace, elections, and judicial independence, as well as how citizens can engage responsibly.
