Quite a few sources, but they seem mostly to be syndicated from the same story tell that: "South Sudan will change its time zone by setting the clock back 1 hour on February 1, 2021, the government spokesperson has said. According to the minister of information, Michael Makuei Lueth, South Sudan will change its offset from UTC+3 to UTC+2." from https://eyeradio.org/south-sudan-adopts-new-time-zone-makuei/
"South Sudan will change its time zone by setting the clock back 1 hour on February 1, 2021, the government spokesperson has said. According to the minister of information, Michael Makuei Lueth, South Sudan will change its offset from UTC+3 to UTC+2. The change will be effective at 00:00 (midnight) on February 1, when clocks will be set back 1 hour to 23:00 (11:00 pm). Currently, South Sudan uses Eastern Africa Time (EAT). The change will put the East African country on Central Africa Time (CAT). After the change, South Sudan will observe the same local time as Egypt and Chad and neighboring Sudan."
