 Chavuma district commissioner Benjamin Mufunga who was accompanied by Disaster Management and Mitigation Unit (DMMU) district members confirmed the ordeal and inspected some of the affected buildings to access the extent of the damage.

 Mr. Mufunga said he will call for an urgent meeting with the District Education Board Secretary, District Health Director and other key stakeholders to discuss how best the damage caused to some government structures can be repaired so that the operations at the  affected institutions are not affected.
