Hon. Kateshumbwa made these remarks on Thursday as the Roads Committee embarked on a three-day supervision campaign of all district roads slated for construction and maintenance, for which the government allocated funds in the financial year 2023/2024.
Hon. Kateshumbwa expressed frustration with the district technical teams for presenting substandard work while continuing to spend government money on expenses they cannot fully account for.
