CEC Kabompo Power Project Advances

TATA Zambia and the Copperbelt Energy Corporation (CEC) are this week expected to start works on the Kabompo river hydro electric power project.

Mwinilunga East MP Stephen Katuka says the power project which is expected to meet North Western province's energy needs comes at a time when the province is experiencing a boom in the mining sector.

Mr. Katuka appealed to the provincial administration to quickly start works on feeder roads to attract more investment to the region.

The Mwinilunga East MP said delays in rehabilitating roads will paint a negative image of the province.
