East African regional bloc the Intergovernmental Authority on Development is working to resolve cross-border restrictions and ease the passage of travellers, goods, and services among member states by drafting a new protocol.
The draft was as outlined in the 1966 IGAD establishment agreement, trade unions, and by the East African Community, the Daily Monitor reported. Rwanda closed its Katuna border post with Uganda about three weeks ago causing huge losses to transport and businesses between the two East African countries.
IGAD’s protocol seeks to resolve the ongoing conflict by addressing major issues, including free movement of people with the aim of abolishing visas, labour mobility, infrastructure development, and encouraging the establishment of business and residency.
