Nalumango’s visit to CB exposed challenges-Matambo

Copperbelt Province Minister Elisha Matambo has described the recent visit by Vice President Mutale Nalumango to the region as successful.

Mr. Matambo says Mrs. Nalumango’s visit to the Copperbelt Province has brought out various challenges that need to be urgently attended to by the government.

He says the visit highlighted issues of poor sewer systems, erratic water supply, and poor road network among others in Kwacha and Kabushi constituencies.

“We went around and found sewer everywhere unlike the sentiments which used to be given by the previous Members of Parliament that there is development in the two constituencies,” he said.

Mr. Matambo, who is also United Party for National Development (UPND) Chairperson said the party is ready to develop the two constituencies.

Yesterday, the Vice President concluded her four days visit to the Copperbelt Province by inspecting works being carried out by the Nkana Water and Sanitation Company and held a meeting with the company management.

Mrs. Nalumango also checked on the progress of construction works on the second ablution block at Kapalala market in Ndola recently before meeting the clergy.

  1. You mean without the Veepee visiting you you cant see your own challenges? How childish! You have to be shown your shortcomings by your mother! Leadership of nowadays

  2. What about you? You mean you don’t have eyes to see all that you are referring to? Do we have to wait for someone from Lusaka to know that we have problems. Fat cow.

  3. Mr Matambo come to Mufulira and visit Mulonga Water and Sanitation offices and the sorrounding David Kaunda Ward
    you will be welcomed by Stench and Fical matter , yet Brand new Vehicles are parked in their
    yard.
    MULONGA WATER COMPANY HAS GONE TO THE ” …s

    Thank GOD its not yet Rain Season ( CHOLERA and DYSENTRY) would have engulfed Mufulira District
    Where is DISTRICT PUBLIC HEALTH MANAGEMENT. NWASCO PLEASE INTERVERN

    I rest my case

    • I grew up in Mufulira. We never heard of cholera. We knew it as a Lusaka based disease. Our town was clean and hygienic with regular garbage collection. We even had “bakapepala” people employed to pick up litter on public roads.

  4. Zambians can live in fisez and still vote for a person who buys them chitumbuwa. This is why Lusambo and Bonanza are popular in the constitutencies they failed to develop.
