The commissioner of Maban County in South Sudan’s Upper Nile State has complained about increasing prices of consumer goods at the market as the local currency dropped to its lowest level against the US dollar.
Speaking to Radio Tamazuj, Luk Sadallah Deng said the main road between Maban and Renk which supplies his county with food items has also been cut off by rains, causing rising prices of essential commodities at the market.
