The Lusaka City Council (LCC) working in close collaboration with the African Enterprise Southern African Region (AESAR) and Jesus Care Ministries (JCM) have launched the Serve the City Initiative.
Speaking when she graced the flag off of the ten (10) days clean up exercise called Serve the City Initiative, Lusaka Mayor Chilando Chitangala highlighted that the launch of the clean-up exercise is important as it is going to assist in sensitizing the public on cleanliness and discourage the behaviour of indiscriminate dumping of waste.
Ms Chilando stated that the Lusaka City Council is committed to ensuring that it maintains standards of cleanliness in the city and suburbs through such initiatives such as the one done by the African Enterprise Southern African Region and Jesus Care Ministries.
“It is efforts such as these that will help manage ward off outbreaks such as Cholera and COVID-19, which have ravaged the lives of many people,” Ms Chitangala stated
She added that the Local Authority needs more concerted efforts from stakeholders and citizens to achieve a Clean, Green and Health city.
And speaking at the same event, African Enterprise Southern African Region team leader Dr Lutangu Lubasi encouraged traders operating in the Central Business District (CBD) and the residents of Lusaka to always clean their surroundings, trading places and not to dump garbage anyhow.
“Atleast throw garbage in designated areas,” Dr Lubasi said
Meanwhile, Jesus Care Ministries Executive Director Ms Margret Katayi cited that the exercise that has been launched will be for all Constituencies in Lusaka.
“The cleaning exercise will be coupled with preaching the gospel in accordance to their outreach program,” Ms Katayi noted
The upnd govt are naturally dirty people. Just look at hh scruffy hair. He cannot groom himself
Useless…and as soon as they’re finished cleaning….dumping of waste starts again…people please stop throwing garbage all over Lusaka please please…..cleanliness is a joint responsibility…it doesn’t matter whether you’re PF or UPND
There’s no city that depends solely on the goodwill of its citizens to maintain cleanliness. You can’t depend on volunteers
to clean your city. Noone without a job will pick up litter 24/7. It’s 90 percent city management and 10 percent citizens efforts. So LCC put in your due efforts. That’s why we pay taxes and levies
Start from the bottom first. Address the throwing of rubbish first.
No start from the top leadership…LCC neither has Good Goverance nor Leadership
No start from the top leadership…LCC neither has Good Governa nce nor Leade rship
No start from the top leader ship…LC C neither has Good Governa nce nor Leade rship
No start from the top
WE never learn you can have the military battalion of 1000 service men and women out there brushes, bull dozers and unblocking drainages for one month but if LCC have no long term plan no refuse trucks and sweepers….no bin allocation or daily collection you are simply wasting your time. As Mo Ibrahim once said the difference between Zurich and Lilongwe or Lusaka is leadership and good governance. LCC does have this its Directors are busy using company trucks to ferry cement to their newly acquired plots busy abusing company fuel.
Comment is awaiting moderation…for what?
