Bunia, 06 January 2011 - The Head of Ituri Office of the United Nations Stabilization Mission in DR Congo (MONUSCO) inaugurated the recently rehabilitated road between Bogoro and Aveba, in Irumu territory, last week.

The Head of MONUSCO/Ituri office, M'hand Ladjouzi, noted that the rehabilitation of the road which will bring people closer fell within the execution of MONUSCO mandate, whose central priority is protection of civilian population.
