Government has released K33 million for the clearance of the salary arrears for TAZARA employees ending September 2022.
Transport and Logistics Minister Frank Tayali says the New Dawn Administration is poised to continue fulfilling all the promises made to the Zambian people of improving their living standards.
Mr. Tayali says the TAZARA case has been on the priority list of the developmental programs that government committed itself to achieving.
The Minister also stated that government worked round the clock with the TAZARA management to complete the repair works on damaged Chambeshi Railway Bridge based in Kanchibiya District and cargo trains have started moving.
Mr. Tayali says after the successful completion of the Bridge, President Hakainde Hichilema has instructed that the passenger trains must immediately start operating on the TAZARA.
He has since commended TAZARA staff for their patience and good behavior during these tough times and for also believing in government.
