Phase one and two of the 40 bed space eye hospital being constructed in Kitwe has been completed at a cost of 284, 000 US dollars
The construction of the eye hospital was made possible through the generous financial support of past Council Chairperson Alexis Vincent Gomez.
The Lions Club District 403 Governor Lackson Chiyana disclosed this at the send off ceremony for Mr. Gomez who was in the country to monitor the progress made in construction of the hospital.
Mr. Chiyana announced that Mr. Gomez further pledged to fund the entire construction of phase 3 of the hospital which will include construction of consulting rooms.
He thanked Mr Gomez on behalf of the Zambian people through the Lions Club for his generous donation, saying the hospital will not only benefit Zambians but the entire SADC region in treatment of eye related problems.
Speaking earlier, Lions Past District Governor Hastings Chiti said the Lions Club was overwhelmed by the generosity of Mr Gomez.
Mr. Chiti has since urged the government and the Kitwe City Council to work together in order to enhance and promote the Public Private Partnership that can be seen between the government the Lions Club.
And Mr Gomez said the future of the African continent can be brighter if African people worked together.
