The family of Mining Cabinet Secretary Hassan Joho has suffered a double blow after the High Court accepted a petition challenging their dominance of the business of handing South Sudan’s cargo through the Mombasa port.

Justice Peter Mulwa gave the green light to a rival firm, Compact Freight, to seek enforcement of a directive by the South Sudan government that its cargo be handled by five firms, instead of two, including Autoport Freight Terminals, which is associated with the Joho family.
