President Hakainde Hichilema says the Chisekesi- Chipepo Road in Gwembe District will be rehabilitated for the people to effectively access social amenities such as hospitals, schools and markets among others. And President Hichilema has stated that Bottom Road which connects Gwembe to Sinazongwe will also be rehabilitated. The Head of State notes that improving roads in Gwembe is a priority, hence the need for residents to vote for the United Party for National Development (UPND) in the August 13, General Elections for continued development.
Mr Hichilema said this today in Gwembe District at a community engagement at Munyumbwe Grounds. President Hichilema further pointed out that government has implemented a number of programmes such as the Free Education Policy which has now become law, adding that for this to continue, people should vote for the UPND during the General Elections. “For free education to continue, you have to vote for the UPND so that it comes back into power for more development,” he said.
President Hichilema also noted that health workers, teachers among others have been employed in different sectors. “There is no government that has employed more than 45 thousand teachers and 20 thousand nurses. This is the reason you should vote for UPND so that more job opportunities can be created,” he urged.
