NAIROBI (Reuters) - A group of South Sudanese lawyers filed a case to the country's top court on Monday challenging the president's postponement of elections and extension of the transitional government's term for two years.
Ten days ago, President Salva Kiir's office announced an extension of the transitional period by two years and postponed elections for a second time following a delay in 2022.
