Roads and Transport CS Kipchumba Murkomen and his South Sudanese counterpart Simon Mijak have agreed to address the issues surrounding the development of the 350km Nadapal-Juba road. This decision follows the directive of Presidents William Ruto of Kenya and Salva Kiir of South Sudan, who instructed the ministers to facilitate seamless connectivity between the Port of Mombasa and Juba. The two ministers have committed to signing a Memorandum of Understanding that seeks to separate the border issues from connectivity, paving the way for the construction of the road. During the meeting, CS Murkomen also reaffirmed Kenya's commitment to completing its part of the Lamu Port-South Sudan-Ethiopia-Transport (LAPSSET) Corridor project.
