The number of bridges that have been washed away in Nalikwanda constituency in Mongu has increased to 18 from the 13 that were damaged barely two weeks ago.
Mongu District Commissioner, Susiku Kamona disclosed that five more crossing points have been completely washed away and two other clinics cut- off from the rest of the district due to the floods.
Mr. Kamona said though no lives have been lost there is need to speed-up the acquisition of motorized transport to ferry medical supplies to the affected health institutions to keep the provision of health services at optimal levels.
He disclosed that the floods have also affected some crops and disrupted the smooth attendance of classes by pupils in some affected schools in the area.
And Mr. Kamona has thanked the Disaster Management and Mitigation Unit (DDMMU) under the Vice President’s Office for releasing funds to the district to enable it conduct a rapid assessment report.
He said the team that went round the affected wards is busy compiling a report that will be finalized by today and be sent to DDMM in Lusaka.
The DC expressed optimism that DDMMU will respond to some of the immediate needs the district has requested such as the 11 boats for ferrying drugs and monitoring of the health situation to avert any possible outbreaks of diseases in the affected areas
The district has been experiencing heavy rains in the past weeks destroying infrastructure and cutting –off some schools and clinics from the rest of the district.
What are people still doing in Lialui and Nalikwanda. This is flooding time and therefore time for Kuomboka.
Go to Limulunga using the Nalikwanda please!!1
Just for my Lozi speaking cousins
You insulted ancestors this week over Kuomboka. Ngabela Sinyinda should say something now.
Nalikwanda here refers to a Constituency South East of Mongu.

@Annoymous, why dedicate my life to American jobs. Sometimes it’s stupid to use all your life style on people who don’t like you. ‘..hoo I work too much. Hoo don’t disturb me, am at work”. Fuuuuuuck all.
I have 2 jobs (charitable), and 1 more as guess lecturer. This year am teaching “Moral Philosophy”. At 2 community colleges. Ba Mizinge knows me. I respect that man.
I spend time research here at LT. I get so many reference stories from LT for my classes. They simply love it.
Monday I used Zondwa underwear dance. It was hotty. The Dean want 3 more classes.
Listen, am not traditional please.
@Nostradamus
I hear you mate.. i like your comment ” why work hard for people that don’t even like you” i agree with you on this comment but not that of Zodwa i thought you were going after Godfridah coz i think she needs ‘it’ more than Zodwa. Zodwa can get laid at any time but not Godfridah…tough sell.
HH is in MONGU assessing the damage , the Kuomboka will take place this saturday 17 march 2018, PF is equal to the task to repair the bridges though lozis think HH is their leader
Was HH spared from the washout?
