JUBA – South Sudan President Salva Kiir Mayardit has issued a directive to the country’s ministry of transport and South Sudan Civil Aviation Authority to suspend – from operation – the South Supreme Airliner company after a fatal crash in the country’s Jonglei state killed all 12 people – including crews – on board.

This comes a day after a plane operated by South Supreme Airline crashed in Uror County of Jonglei state killing all on board.

“As a temporary measure to deal with these avoidable air accidents before laws governing civil aviation are strengthened via legislative means, I am hereby directing Ministry of Transport and Civil Aviation Authority to suspend South Supreme Airline Operations in South Sudan,” Kiir said in a condolence message seen by Sudans Post.

“This measure is necessary for these institutions to ascertain airworthiness of the remaining South Supreme planes. It is also a necessary step to restoring public confidence in air travel in the country,” he added in the message.

The South Sudan  Civil Aviation Authority also said it has sent a team of fact finders to investigate the plane crash.

    “BREAKING: Kiir suspends South Supreme Airline after fatal crash”

    These lowly informed fools would be intrigued by our ‘arch enemies again’. This so-called “Supreme Airline” doesn’t exist. Here in Jonglei, we bombed ‘the Russian helicopter’ some years ago, which was working for the UN, when it was brought into our back yard without notice.

    Let the vermins/parasites keep ‘prodding South Sudan and the South Sudanese people’ and they will get what they are desperately shopping for with *a bucket full of it*.
