By

South Sudan former interim head coach Cyprian Ashu believes the Bright Stars can challenge for qualification in Group B of the TotalEnergies AFCON 2027 qualifiers despite being drawn against Egypt, Angola and Malawi. Ashu, who was appointed as interim coach on March 12, 2026, in his second spell with the Bright Stars, successfully guided South Sudan past Djibouti in the preliminary round to secure a place in the group stages. Reacting to the draw, the Cameroonian tactician described the group as “interesting, promising and very difficult,” while highlighting the pedigree of African giants Egypt. “Egypt, we all know, has won so many African Cup of Nations trophies, probably only rivaled by Cameroon. They are also a very good team,” Ashu said. He also pointed to the strength of Angola and Malawi, two sides he has closely analysed and faced in recent qualification campaigns. “Angola is a very good team with many players based in Portugal, while Malawi are also a side we know very well,” ...

OPINION | When Silence Becomes Structure: Juba Queens and the Transparency Gap in South Sudan Football

By
Image
© South Sudan Football Federation / Official Media By Emmanuel Patrick Laku | Sports Hunter South Sudan Football does not fail only when rules are broken. It fails more quietly—when rules exist, but their application cannot be seen. In South Sudan, the emergence of Juba Queens FC has become more than the story of a new women’s club. It has become a stress test of football governance itself: whether the game is guided by written regulation, or by procedures that operate without public explanation. Because in football administration, what is not explained is quickly replaced by what is assumed. And what is assumed soon becomes accepted. The case of Juba Queens exposes a governance gap in South Sudan football where regulation exists in practice but not in transparency. A System That Operates Without Being Seen According to individuals familiar with domestic football administration, Juba Queens were registered directly under the South Sudan Football Federation (SSFF) rather than through th...

By: Emmanuel Patrick Laku - Juba, South Sudan – El Merriekh SC Bentiu will make their first-ever appearance in the CECAFA Kagame Cup 2025, scheduled for September 2–15 in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, with the draw set for August 26th. The South Sudan Premier League club was nominated by the South Sudan Football Federation (SSFF) after Kator FC turned down an invitation to participate in the tournament.  This development followed CAF’s decision to reject Kator from representing the country in the CAF Confederation Cup. El Merriekh’s involvement in the Kagame Cup is seen as a crucial preparation for their upcoming campaign in the CAF Confederation Cup, where they will represent South Sudan at continental level.  The tournament will give the Bentiu-based side exposure to regional competition and help them build the experience needed for the challenges ahead. The Kagame Cup will bring together 12 teams, including: Singida Black Stars FC (Tanzania), APR FC (Rwanda), Vipers SC (Ugan...

Shadows Behind the Touchline: The Nicolas Dupuis Saga and the Crisis of Governance in South Sudan Football Opinion By: Emmanuel Patrick Laku — Sports Hunter South Sudan In global football, professionalism is not a luxury. It is the baseline on which every credible football project is built. Contracts, transparency, communication, accountability—these are the pillars that sustain national teams. Yet in South Sudan, a prolonged and deeply unsettling saga surrounding Bright Star head coach Nicolas Dupuis has revealed the fragility of these foundations. His dispute with the South Sudan Football Federation (SSFF) has evolved from a private grievance into a public test of governance—and the silence around it is now louder than any explanation offered. At the centre of it all stands a single question: Can a football nation succeed when its leadership refuses to speak clearly, act transparently, or honour its own commitments? A Press Conference That Broke the Quiet The turning point un...
