INTO ONOKUYITHATHA KWELI NQAKU:
- The untimely news for Juba became public a week before the annual head of state summit of the EAC taking place in Nairobi, Kenya, one of the countries hardest hit by South Sudan's inability or unwillingness to pay for goods and services supplied, a situation which has caused private Kenyan airline, Jetlink, to halt operations as over US$2 million of unremitted funds are stuck in Juba's banks while a range of other leading business names have also halted trading with South Sudan unless strictly paid upfront in cash.
- But I think the last nail in their coffin was how they have caused huge financial pains to the business communities in Kenya and Uganda by not paying bills, and this is the result now,” said a regular source close to Uganda's foreign ministry yesterday, when discussing the report of a panel of experts, which was tasked to assess South Sudan's preparedness to join the East African Community, before continuing.
- The decision last week to reschedule the start of oil production, as a result of ongoing serious differences between Juba and Khartoum, has by the look of it worsened the situation, just as hope for resumed cash flow was rekindled, only to be doused when Juba announced that no oil would flow for the time being until political and security issues between the two countries have been resolved.
