Government, through the Ministry of Transport and Communication, has released K200 million for the construction of a passenger bus terminal at Mulamba Harbour in Mongu district.
Mulamba Harbour Master, Washington Nkhonjela, said the construction of the terminal
would commence as soon as tendering procedures are completed.
Mr. Nkhonjela said the construction of the terminal would help alleviate security
problems facing the travelling public in the area.
He indicated that the multi-facility terminal would also improve the comfort of the
passengers traveling to various destinations.
The current shelter at the harbour lacks facilities of convenience among them
toilets and clean drinking water.
Mulamba Harbour is a gateway to Kalabo district by water transport and is mainly
used during the rainy season due to the floods in the plains.
