Freight transport between
Cameroon and the Central African Republic via the border city of Garoua-Boulaï,
western part of Cameroon, resumed March 28 after about a month of suspension.
The good news is owing to a
decision by Central African rebels to break camp at that border they blocked
since March 3 to protest against the appointment of the new Prime Minister in
their country. Camp was broken after a dialogue was open between parties in
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Therefore, the hundreds of trucks
loaded with goods, which had been immobilized for several weeks, both in
Cameroonian and Central African territory, have now resumed operations.
According to official Cameroonian
customs statistics, about XAF55 billion worth of Central African goods transit
Cameroon each year.
