KAMFINSA MP TACKLES WATER BLUES

- By ROGERS KALERO

RESOLVING poor water reticulati­on in some parts of Kamfinsa constituen­cy in Kitwe is one of the priority areas in the five-year term, Member of Parliament Christophe­r Kang'ombe has said

Mr Kang'ombe said he would do his best to resolve the problem in close collaborat­ion with Nkana Water Supply and Sanitation Company (NWSSC).

He said he was hopeful that he would receive support from the residents in his efforts to deliver developmen­t

"On my own, I cannot fulfil my campaign promises, I need the support of the residents and other stakeholde­rs like NWSSC. If we work together to address the problems of water reticulati­on, then it will be a great achievemen­t for all of us.

"During my campaigns, I promised to work on the poor water reticulati­on especially in Ndeke Village hence I decided to familiaris­e myself so that we can see how we can proceed. Let us work together for the betterment of Kamfinsa constituen­cy,'' Mr Kang'ombe said.

Last weekend, Mr Kang'ombe toured the Ndeke Village Mini Hospital and tasked the contractor to complete works on the maternity wing in the next four weeks.

He urged the Kitwe District Health Office to start sourcing and mobilising medical equipment to be installed at the maternity wing of the Ndeke Village Mini Hospital in readiness for its completion in the next four weeks.

Mr Kang'ombe also said his focus would be the establishm­ent of a skills training centre in the constituen­cy for short trade tested courses

He would work with the Kitwe City Council to identify land for the project and that he would link the graduates to industry for possible job and business opportunit­ies.

"Every long journey starts with a single step and I can tell you that one of my focus areas as I begin my tour of duty as Kamfinsa MP is the establishm­ent of a skill training centre for short trade tested courses.
