“The dismantling of an illegal barrier by the administrator of the territory of Beni was welcomed by Richard Kirimba, vice-president of civil society in Beni. This decision follows a plea made against the multiplicity of barriers along the roads agricultural service in the region.
In this region of Beni, the population suffers from the consequences of these illegal barriers, which hinder free movement and asphyxiate the inhabitants. Richard Kirimba stressed that the population of Eringeti was increasingly trapped by these barriers, and cited in particular the barriers on the Eringeti-Kainana and Eringeti-Samboko axes.
It is essential to put an end to these illegal practices which affect the mobility and well-being of the population. The determination of the administrator of Beni to dismantle these barriers is a positive step. However, it is important to go further and ensure the prevention and repression of the establishment of new illegal barriers in the region.
Freedom of movement is a fundamental right and essential to economic and social development. It is therefore essential to ensure that agricultural feeder roads are free of these illegal obstacles. The competent authorities must continue to work in collaboration with civil society to identify and eliminate all illegal barriers in the Beni region.
The population of Eringeti and the surrounding area is impatiently awaiting the realization of this initiative aimed at curbing the multiplication of illegal barriers. This will allow better access to markets, basic services and promote local economic development.
In conclusion, the decision to dismantle an illegal barrier on the Eringeti-Samboko axis is an encouraging sign, but it is essential to continue efforts to eliminate all illegal barriers in the region
