President Hakainde Hichilema has directed Local Authorities in the country to improve service delivery.
ZANIS Ndola reports that the President said this shortly after arrival at Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe International Airport in Ndola.
President Hichilema said government has restored sanity to the councils by allowing them to collect levies from bus stations and markets unlike in the past.
The President who is accompanied by Agriculture Minister, Reuben Mutolo, said his government is determined to fight corruption and recover resources that were stolen from the Zambian people.
He added that the fight against corruption is not a tribal matter, but rather an exercise aimed at recovering the country’s resources.
President Hichilema has further revealed that his government has started unlocking mines by creating an environment that will enable miners to benefit from minerals.
He said government wants Zambian small scale miners to conduct legal and safe mining.
