3,000 Luwingu Residents to Benefit from Food Security Pack

(ZANIS) Over three thousand people are earmarked to benefit from the emergency wetlands cropping sub programme of the Food Security Pack (FSP) programme .

This programme under the Ministry of Community Development and Social Welfare in Luwingu is aimed at helping vulnerable households affected by either floods or droughts.

District Commissioner, CHOMBA CHILESHE told ZANIS in an interview in Luwingu that the Department of Community Development is currently in the field conducting sensitisation meetings ahead of the programme.

Mr CHILESHE said this follows the declaration of the droughts as a national disaster and emergency by President HAKAINDE HICHILEMA.

He stated that all processes from sensitisation and enumeration will be conducted to ensure due diligence in the selection process.

Mr CHILESHE said his office has engaged traditional and civic leaders on the programme so that they can encourage their subjects to register.
