Mbanza Kongo - Road traffic on the National Road-120 linking Mbanza Kongo and Nóqui municipalities in Angola’s northern Zaire province has been interrupted since Tuesday after a containerized truck loaded with frozen fish rolled over.

The accident involved a 40-foot truck from Luanda heading to the Nóqui, which is 165 kilometers from Mbanza Kongo city, the capital of Zaire province.

Speaking to ANGOP, truck drivers said the Kivola sub-section linking to border region with Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is the most critical zone of the road.

Dozens of vehicles are currently prevented from heading to Mbanza Kongo/Nóqui direction waiting for the truck loaded with frozen fish to be removed.

The Mbanza Kongo/Nóqui national road has been undergoing rehabilitation work since 2020, and around 140 kilometers of the planned 165 have already been asphalted.

This road also allows the transport of goods to Cabinda province, in northern Angola, via the neighboring DRC.

Nóqui municipality has an estimated population of over 23,000 inhabitants, spread across the communes of Lufico, Mpala and Sede. DA/DMN/JL/DAN/AMP
