The Ministry of Community Development and Social Services has pledged K5.5 million for the construction of permanent structures and Nsakwa yaba Kaonde traditional ceremony venue at Kaimbwe in Kasempa district.
Community Development and Social Services Minister, Michael Kaingu made the pledge at Kaimbwe in Kasempa district yesterday during the official launch of the Nsakwa yaba Kaonde annual ceremony by President Rupiah Banda.
Mr. Kaingu has also given the Nsakwa yaba Kaonde organizing committee K1.5 million as an appreciation for organizing such a successful ceremony that had gathered Kaonde chiefs from Central and North-Western provinces.
Meanwhile, Mr. Kaingu has implored the Nsakwa yaba Kaonde committee to remain non-partisan but urged them to support the government of the day so as to enhance development in various sectors.
He particularly urged women to support President Banda’s administration and form clubs so that they are empowered from funds allocated to them through his ministry.
Speaking at the same occasion, Nsakwa yaba Kaonde national patron, Kabinga Pande who is also Foreign Affairs Minister and Kasempa Member of Parliament urged the Kaonde chiefs to continue the spirit of unity and avoid dragging Nsakwa yaba Kaonde into politics.
QFM
Let the campaigning begin!
the vulnerable kids is the ministry’s register could do with this K5m…just saying
From K5.5mm, one can only get about 1,000 blocks. Isn’t Micheal Kaingu not ashamed to pledge K5.5mm to such honourable group of people. This shows lack of seriousness to be honest this amount of money is not even enough to cater for future to and from Kasempa if these 3 monkeys where to go by road. Later on using an aircraft. If this monkey was serious, he should have stayed in his shack in Lusaka, and send a message using any local government official about the pledge. Did you have to risk your life just to go and pledge K5.5mm. Let’s learn to be serious for once!!!
If a Kaonde-province shall ask fertilizers of any of you that from MMD, will they give them a middle finger? Or if a province, will he for a road will they receive a mare K5pin? Thy shall continue crashing… Lesa ni malyotola.
