North Kivu: Osso Banyungu civil society warns of economic fallout from deterioration of the Masisi–Nyabiondo road

Deterioration of the road between Masisi-centre and Nyabiondo in North Kivu’s Masisi territory is disrupting market supplies and driving up transport costs. Misati Zachée, president of the Osso Banyungu civil society coordination, says a bar of soap has risen from 2,000 to 3,000 FC and a sack of flour from 80,000 to 120,000 FC. He is urging authorities to rehabilitate the road urgently, saying its poor condition is worsening the hardships faced by households and traders.
