Sikota hails PF for infrastructure development

THE Patriotic Front (PF) deserves to be commended for the massive infrastructure development it is undertaking across the country, veteran politician and founding Father Sikota Wina has said.

Mr Wina said just like any other Government, the PF had its own weaknesses, but had performed well in infrastructure development and many other sectors and ought to be commended.

He said the massive developmental projects initiated by the PF under the leadership of President Edgar Lungu countrywide had lifted the face of most rural areas in the country.

Mr Wina, however, observed that the atmosphere was clouded with non-issue based politics, hence making it difficult for people to appreciate the development.

“We need to give credit where it is due, the PF Government ought to be commended for all the good it’s doing, especially in the area of infrastructure.

“There is no Government on earth which is 100% perfect, PF has its weaknesses, but it also has strength. So it is wrong to say PF has done nothing for this country.

“Looking at the number of projects across the country, it is only befitting that we commend His Excellence President Edgar Lungu for changing the face of several places across the country for the good.

“In this atmosphere which is clouded with non-issue based politics, it becomes so easy not to see the good being done. The good must be commended and bad condemned and give credit where it is due,” Mr Wina said.

Mr Wina pointed out that roads, modern health facilities, shopping malls and schools were among infrastructure developments which should be commended.
