His Royal Highness Chief Ndake of the Nsenga-speaking people of Nyimba District has thanked Government for building secondary schools in his Chiefdom.
Speaking from his palace when he met leaders from a consortium of civil society organisations from Lusaka on Saturday afternoon, Chief Ndake said the people of Nyimba District are thankful for the four (4) secondary schools constructed in his Chiefdom.
The Chief called on Government to continue working towards the attainment of universal basic education by targeting rural youths.
He said through his interventions, the Chiefdom has dissolved 12 early child marriages with minors and taken back the girls to school.
And Chief Ndake has thanked the Civil Society organisations for explaining the contents of Constitution of Zambia Amendment Bill Number 10 with clarity, and dispelling the misinformation surrounding the Bill.
“What I ask of you as civil society is that you must simplify Bill 10 by producing a booklet which explains what you have ably explained today,” said Chief Ndake.
Meanwhile, the Chief has bemoaned the low voter turnout in Nyimba district during elections as compared to other provinces in Zambia.
The Chief has attributed the low voter turnout to frustrations among his subjects and lack of knowledge on how voting is related to developmental agenda.
He suggested several measures which Government must implement in order to increase voter turnout in Nyimba District.
“Government and the Electoral Commission must work with traditional leaders and civil society to achieve a high voter turnout in the Province in 2021 and future elections,” said Chief Ndake
More developments coming to e/province the govt has taken development to areas in the southern prov, were it was not voted for, which simply means its the govt for all including hakainde himself
It’s not votes that pay tax, remember when it comes to national GDP figures southern province is third. So economic wise its one valuable province for the country. but the most important thing is to develope all provinces so that you avoid urban drift.
Nyimba is just a small town in Eastern province, to have another view get to Lundazi, Lumezi, Chasefu, Chama and surrounding areas especially the Tumbuka speaking part of the province. Meet the people and hear what they have to say about development. These are the most neglected areas, not even ZNBC signal, no GSM
Excellent! There are the chiefs. Not bena mukuni who can’t see anything good
ECL means well. He has taken a good road to bweengwa and soon it will pass thru HH village.
Because they pay tax too.
Excellent. We thank you for acknowledging the hard work of this government. Our main priority is to ensure development in the grassroots and we are doing just that. God bless Zambia. Kz
IWE SYCOPHANT @NICKSON , That is illogical thinking… A vote is a democratic process that takes place every 5 years (well sort of)…. And then who ever is elected has to serve the whole country AS WE WAIT FOR THE NEXT ELECTIONS…. So dont stress too much with this COVID Ka!!
Stupid chiefs what development are you talking?Mumba don’t compare mukuni and easterners chiefs,mukuni is more rich than those chiefs, just animals only he can feed his family for the rest of his family.Go eastern and see yourself those chiefs they can not buy brand new vehicles from toyata Zambia unless donations from government.Go at Toyota Zambia and check yourself .Those are beggars and very lazy chiefs
Meanwhile Bo Inonge’s area pupils are still going to thatched shools as basic schools.

Hahahaha. Which development? This chief is just lobbying for money by signing praises for the incompetent PF we made a mistake to put in government. All the singing of infrastructure development then boom covid-19 exposes the loopholes they have been neglecting or lying about. The fool singing development is buying mealie meal at k200, he couldn’t think to say with all this development why then are things costly in the country? Surely with good roads as they purport costs should be driven down not so? But are they? No, who is to blame? Well for the PF it’s global warming, floods, oil prices even when they are at their lowest now, covid-19 etc.
