“We are extremely happy that you have considered our chiefdoms in Isoka and your services in treating various illnesses to citizens are welcome,” stated Chief Katyetye.
And Chief Kafwimbi’s representative, Jemima Nakamba said subjects have all been sensitized to the presence of specialized doctors in their chiefdom.
