"Bahr El Jebel Safaris" is planning on restarting safaris in January 2016 in South Sudan. However they plan to stay in the southern part of the country around Juba, Bor, Nimule, Torit, Kapoeta and Boma where there has been peace. In the international news there has been considerable fighting between the government forces and the rebel forces, but this has been confined to the north. The fight is for control of the oil field, the life blood of the country. Oil accounts for over 90% of the government budget expenditures. See www.bahr-el-jebel-safaris.com
