A barrel of liquefied gas now sells at 270,000 Sudanese Pounds.<\/p>\n<p>Al Daein resident Khaled Ibrahim Hamdan told Radio Tamazuj on Sunday that the city is witnessing a decline in the prices of consumer goods such as flour, and oil, among others despite the pause of goods coming from Khartoum due to the ongoing war between the army and the Rapid Support Forces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPrices rise every year in August due to the deterioration of roads but after that, we often do not face challenges,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Another resident, Abdul Rahim Mohammed Houli, said that the influx of goods from South Sudan also contributed to the decrease in prices in the city of El Daein.<\/p>\n<p>For his part, the head of the East Darfur Business Union, Al-Sadiq Ahmed Abdel-Rahman, said that the low prices in Al-Daein\u2019s markets are due to the abundance of supply and the low exchange rate of the dollar. He stated that Al-Daein currently supplies the other states of Darfur with consumer goods.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe goods brought by merchants from South Sudan and Libya are what contributed to the decline in prices,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Ahmed expects a further decline in prices in the coming months following the opening of the southern road, which was closed due to rough roads during the rainy season.<\/p>\n<p>El Daein town is the only city in Darfur that has not witnessed battles between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces since the outbreak of war between the two military forces in mid-April. Traditional leaders of the Rizaigat tribes living in eastern Darfur have contributed to maintaining stability in the area.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
