The Kenyan government has told South Sudan traders that they are free to clear imported goods at any of the two dry ports in the country, as Nairobi moves to ensure Juba retains the Port of Mombasa as its main point for transhipment cargo.

This comes at a time when South Sudan has been mulling shifting their inbound cargo to the Port of Djibouti, a move that will have a negative impact on the Port of Mombasa as Juba is the second largest client at the facility.
