GOV’T, REGIONAL DRIVERS AGREE ON JUBA–NIMULE CARGO MOVEMENT

After nearly two weeks of disruption along the copuntry’s busiest trade route, the government and regional long-distance truck drivers have agreed on restoring cargo movement along the Juba–Nimule Highway. The deal follows negotiations in Nimule after attacks on drivers triggered a suspension of transport operations, leaving more than one thousand trucks stranded at the Elegu border and threatening supplies of essential goods across the country.
