    The cargo trucks that have formed lengthy queues in Elegu Town Council, Amuru District are facilitating illicit commercial sex trade in the area.

    As a safeguard to curb the spread of the Coronavirus Disease pandemic, all lodges in Elegu town were closed in March but Kassim Akule, the LCI Chairperson of Lorikwor West cell explains that now, the illicit business is being transacted in trucks as hundreds of cargo drivers spend between two to four days seeking clearance.

    The District Woman MP Lucy Akello, asserts that district leaders backed by security are finding it extremely difficult to regulate the illicit trade but said the authorities are liaising with relevant development partners to conduct intensive counseling among the sex workers. Hon. Lucy Akello…..

    Last week, the Minister of Health Dr Jane Ruth Aceng rallied Amuru leaders to conduct comprehensive risk communication and community engagement to help mitigate possible spread of the contagion, saying that mere pretence and silence to the sex workers because their trade is illegal won`t help now that some take the trade as their offices in exchange for what they may call salary.

    Over 1,000 trucks carrying goods are cleared every day in Elegu, at the Uganda – South Sudan One Stop Border Post.

    Uganda has registered 212 cases of Corona, 68 recoveries and no death by last night. In the neighboring Kenya, there have been 1286 cases, 402 recoveries and 52 death by last evening.

    In Tanzania, no more records have been updated for sometime after the country seemed to have taken their situation secret. They have kept at 509 cases, 183 recoveries and 21 death for some time now. In Rwanda, 327 cases, 237 recoveries and zero death had been reported by last evening as Burundi cases rise to 42, 20 recoveries and 1 death. END
