The communities have made the threat in collaboration with Nazombe Radio Listening Club.
The constituents are worried that since the breakage of the timber deck bridge some months ago, Gogo Nazombe Health Centre, which serves the community, has not been able to receive medicines as required or ferry referred patients to the Boma as the bridge connects the two sides.
