Pibor, also called Pibor Post, is a town in South Sudan.

Location

Pibor located in Pibor County, in Boma State,[2] in eastern South Sudan, near the border with Ethiopia. It lies approximately {{convert|342|km|mi}}, by road, northeast of Juba, the capital and largest city of the country.[3] After creation of new states, it became part of Boma State.

Overview

Pibor Post is a colonial era outpost built in 1912 by the British and was originally called Fort Bruce. The town serves as the headquarters of Pibor County, one of the constituent counties of the Jonglei State before creation of new states in 2015. The Pibor River, formed by the confluence of several smaller streams, begins its journey at Pibor. The river then flows north, receiving the Akobo River near Akobo. Eventually, after receiving the Gilo River and the Bela River, it joins the Baro River to form the Sobat River.

Transport

A packed-mud road leads north to Akobo at the border with Ethiopia. Another packed-mud road leads southwest out of Pibor to the town of Bor. These roads become unusable due to flooding during the later months of the annual rainy season. Locals may move by foot, or by river when the roads are not usable. The town is also served by Pibor Airport.

Population

{{asof|July 2011}}, it is estimated that the population of Pibor Post is 1,000 people or fewer.[4]

Points of interest

Boma National Park, the largest national park in South Sudan, lies about {{convert|65|km|mi}}, by road, east of Pibor Post.
