During his campaign tour in the northern region, Engineer Vitumbiko Mumba, who is running as the vice president to Dr. Lazarus Chakwera in the upcoming election, has called on the people of Jenda to vote for Dr. Lazarus Chakwera on September 16 if they want development to continue in their area.
He made these remarks in Jenda following concerns raised by local leaders, including GVH Muyunga Nkhata, who spoke on behalf of Chief Chinsolo Jere. The community is facing a critical shortage of clean water, and the Liwerezi area lacks a hospital.
Additionally, local parliamentarian Emmanuel Jere Chambulanyina complained about the conduct of some traders in Jenda who are selling fertilizer and sugar to people in Zambia instead of the local residents.
In response, Mumba stated that if people want clean water and a hospital in the area, they should vote for Dr. Chakwera to ensure the continuation of the development projects he has already begun.
