JUSTICE CHAN REECH MADUT!

Justice Chan Reec Madut is a prominent South Sudanese jurist who served as Chief Justice and President of the Supreme Court of South Sudan from August 2011 to May 2025. Before independence, he served as Deputy President of the Supreme Court of Southern Sudan and Legal Adviser to senior government officials.He is from Aguok Kuei, Gogrial West County (Gogrial Akuol Akuith community ) .

Madut became nationally prominent through his role in the Southern Sudan Referendum Commission, serving as Deputy Chairperson and Chairperson of the Southern Sudan Referendum Bureau. He helped oversee preparations and administration of the historic January 2011 referendum, in which an overwhelming majority of Southern Sudanese voted for independence.

Following independence on 9 July 2011, President Salva Kiir appointed Madut Chief Justice on 15 August 2011. He led the judiciary through South Sudan's formative years, including civil conflict, peace processes and judicial reform efforts. His tenure focused on strengthening courts, improving access to justice and developing judicial institutions in a newly independent country.

His leadership also faced criticism concerning judicial appointments, transparency, political neutrality and judicial independence. These remain subjects of debate.

On 28 May 2025, President Kiir removed Madut from office and appointed Justice Dr. Benjamin Baak Deng as his successor. Madut remains historically significant for both his referendum role and long leadership of South Sudan's Supreme Court.
