United Nation to help expand Bossasso port

 

The UN World Food Programme (WFP) has signed an agreement with Somali’s Puntland state to help expand the capacity of the port of Bossasso in Puntland on the Horn of Africa.

 

Bossasso serves the Somali peninsular but lacks the ability to handle large ships, thus hindering the ability of the WFP when sending in food and other aid to the region.

 

“One of the items in the agreement we signed with WFP include the expansion of Bossasso port so that big vessels can dock without any problem,” said Puntland Information Minister Abdihakin Ahmed Guled after the signing.

 

He announced that WFP has also been given the right to establish warehouses in Bossasso to further assist with the distribution of aid parcels.
