Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The Mayor of Juba City has appealed to traders not to increase the prices of commodities during the Christmas and New Year festivals, while the dollar exchange rate is stable.<\/p>\n

Michael Ladu Allah-Jabu says the City Council has procured food items to be sold at a cheaper price in residential areas, during holidays.<\/p>\n

Allah-Jabu says 300 trucks full of the food subsidies were procured by Ramciel Company, in response to skyrocketing commodity prices in the market.<\/p>\n

The mayor says 100 trucks full of food items have already arrived in the capital, with 200 more awaiting arrivals from Uganda.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt will be distributed in the residential area at a subsidized price. This is not against you as business people but for our city,\u201d said the Mayor on Friday.<\/p>\n

Speaking during the Chamber of Commerce quality awards this week, Allah-Jabu appealed to traders not to increase the prices of goods during the festivities.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am appealing to the traders not to increase prices during Christmas time,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe government is working hard to reduce the dollar price, but when you fix the dollar rate and the price of good is not reduced, that is unacceptable.\u201d<\/p>\n
