“The rains have stopped and this is now a good time for the authorities to undertake remaining road works without disturbances,” he said.
Mr Mwangala appealed to the council to also engage stakeholders to sensitize community on the advantages of erecting standard buildings.
He said that Chirundu district was steadily growing steadily hence the need for people to erect good structures with enough room provided for access roads, drainages, power lines, among others.
Mr Mwangala appealed to the district council to quickly repair the Ibbwemunyama Road, leading to the farming block, which he said was in a bad state.
He described Ibbwemunyama Ward as an area of strategic economic importance because it was the main maize farming hub of the district.
