Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>President Salva Kiir Mayardit on Sunday called for increased trade among East African Community member states.<\/p>\n

Speaking during the commemoration of the 60th anniversary of Ugandan Independence in Kampala on Sunday, Kiir said intra-regional trade and cooperation is the only best way to promote economic prosperity in East Africa.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is only through strengthening inter-regional trade and cooperation within our borders that we as Africa can achieve our objective of economic prosperity in East Africa, and across the continent,\u201d said Kiir.<\/p>\n

Kiir said engaging in inter-regional trade will uplift the people from poverty.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs African leaders, this will uplift our people out of the abject poverty, chronic illness, and ignorance,\u201d Kiir said.<\/p>\n

He called on regional leaders to work together to address the challenges facing their people and build a better future for the next generations.<\/p>\n

\u201cGuided by our common values and interests to effectively determine our shared destiny, we must strive to build a better future for the next generations and collectively overcome the patronizing foreign control of our affairs. \u201c<\/p>\n

He urged his counterparts within the East African Community to join hands and work together for the common good of all Africans.<\/p>\n
