Monze civil servants shun Govt programmes

ANDREW MUKOMA Writes @SunZambian SOME civil servants in Monze District, Southern Province are reported to have been shunning Government programmes. The most common programme which the civil servants have been shunning is the ‘Keep Zambia Health and Green Campaign.’ This has irked the District Commissioner (DC), Munachongo Muleya, who sternly warned those in the habit of shunning the campaign. The DC cautioned the civil servants to desist from absconding from the Keep Monze Clean, Green and Healthy Campaign. Ms Muleya observed that civil servants were the engine of Government and were therefore expected to implement all programmes without fail. Starting the last Friday of this month, Ms Muleya has directed all government workers in the district together with residents in the campaign. She explained that the campaign should be taken seriously by all Monze residents as it was the only way to prevent disease outbreaks in the district. This came to light during the district preparedness committee meeting when Monze Town Council Health Inspector Muchoka Muchoka raised concerns that most Government departs were shunning the campaign.
