Zambia: Government to continue investing in education

Chongwe District Commissioner, Japhen Mwakalombe says government has put in place an ambitious investment programme to construct modern basic and high schools in rural areas.

He explained that government’s focus remains to enhance infrastructure and skills development among the youths as a tool to fight the shackles of poverty.

Mr. Mwakalombe was speaking during a handover ceremony of a mini-bus to Mukamambo Girls High School in Chongwe yesterday.

The District Commissioner said the government will continue improving access to education at all levels by increasing investment in school infrastructure and continuing the recruitment exercise of teachers.

And speaking earlier, Senior Chieftainess Nkomenshya Mukamambo II, called for strong Public Private Partnerships in the education sector to enhance the standards of education in the country.

Senior Chieftainess Mukamambo II said the bus would help to alleviate transport problems the school has been experiencing especially when undertaking educational tours and sports.

And Mukamambo Girls High School Board Chairperson, John Tembo appealed to the business community to partner with the board in constructing a modern kitchen facility for the school.

Mr. Tembo said the board has incorporated the local community in its infrastructure development plan aimed at increasing school places for the girl child.
