The nation’s land borders that have been closed since August 2019 may be reopened soon.
The Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, , gave this indication during an interview with State House correspondents on Wednesday.
Ahmed said the presidential committee set up on the matter has completed its job and has recommended the reopening of the borders.
