Interviewed while receiving the delegation at the airport, Hon Dhieu was well aware that the visiting delegation was coming to “discuss issues related to trade and bilateral relations between the two sisterly countries”
On his arrival, the head of Ugandan delegation, the Attorney General, Hon. William Byrauhanga reiterated that their official mission to south Sudan is to discuss issues on trader and trade relations between the two countries.
He explained that the purpose of the meeting was to settle issues of outstanding debts for trade and supplies made by different firms and individuals to the Government of South Sudan through South Sudanese traders and firms.
Asked about the details of the debts and the amount owing, the officials downplayed the details, however, Hon. Dhieu assures that his government is committed to work with Ugandan government in deepening relations in all areas politically, economically and through military corporations.
After a short meeting, South Sudan’s Minister of finance  reached agreement with Ugandans diplomats to settle the payment of 41 million USD as compensation to Ugandan traders and businessmen for losses incurred due to the conflict in the last three years.
Hon. Dhieu said the relations between the two states of Uganda and South Sudan have been politically, economically, cultural and socially strong for many years and therefore, must be maintained.
He assures that Governments of both countries have taken steps to strengthen relations “in all aspects including stronger economies ties and security along the borders”.
This would be the third agreement Juba has signed with the neighboring countries after Ethiopia and Kenya.
Due to brutal civil war fitting Kiir’s Dinka’s dominated regime against his former Deputy, Machar, South Sudan has been a country of major interest due to high stakes at risk to most of its neighbors and western allies.
While Ugandan has been involved in military conflict on a paid mission to fight alongside Kiir’s loyal forces, Ugandan has been accused of encroaching on South Sudan territory along the borders as its traders and businessmen continued running risky businesses in the capital and other major towns.
Due to resumption of conflict in July this year, many Ugandans traders have been evacuated from Juba, however, the two governments have signed agreements to jointly patrol Juba-Nimule highway to ensure safety for Ugandan traders to continue their business.

Now, this is not business.
It is pure fucking.
It is selfish and it is morally wrong.
This is like trying to fuck a sick ailing woman.
