The Ministry of Local Government has pledged to assist Kapiri Mposhi Town Council with resources to complete the construction of a Council hotel whose works has delayed.
Local Government Permanent Secretary, Ed Chomba says his Ministry will consider providing support through grants-in lieu of rates, rates paid by government institutions like schools and health centres to the council, to facilitate completion of the remaining works at the hotel whose completion has delayed due to lack of resources.
Speaking in Kapiri Mposhi recently, Bishop Chomba observed that once operational the hotel will prove to be a viable income earner for the local authority and enhance its service provision to the people in the district.
