Central African Republic’s food crisis: Prices soar after boat traffic suspended
Food prices have been soaring in the Central African Republic’s capital after boat traffic was suspended after 58 people drowned when a ferry capsized last month.
The capital, Bangui, relies heavily on its river network for much of its food supply.
Dozens of boats are now stuck along the Ubangi River and are creating transport hurdles for passengers.
