Paramount Chief Chitimukulu has charged that had it not been for his swift intervention, China Geo, a contractor engaged to construct the Nseluka – Kayambi road, would have de-mobilized by now.
The Mwine – Lubemba says his intervention on a matter which should have been done by the political leadership in Northern Province is a hint that the area still lacks influential leaders that can stir the desired development.
He has since implored elected leaders in the province to up their game and not wait for him to call on the Republican President to ask the contractor to stay on site.
The Paramount Chief was speaking on Radio Mano during his weekly live programme dubbed, ‘‘Ifikala Ciimbwi Tefikala Inama Ikata’’ which comes on Saturday.
