The mayor of Tonj municipality assures public of decrease in food prices effective from August 30.
Joseph Anei Mador says that last week the municipal authorities issued an order on the reduction of non-food commodities in the market.
The Mayor adds a committee was formed to consult with the Chamber Of Commerce on market prices.
Anei states that with the recently signed peace agreement in Khartoum, Sudan, the initial rate of dollars has reduced and the traders cannot continue increasing prices.
The mayor urges traders to reduce prices of local products to make it affordable to the local population.
Mayor Anei advises the security personnel to implement the order without excuse.
He was speaking to Don Bosco Radio on Wednesday in Tonj Municipality.
