Kitwe Police Receive 12 New Housing Units

Police accommodation continues receiving attention with 12 more completed housing units commissioned in Ndeke Village in Kitwe.

Copperbelt Commissioner of Police Charity Katanga handed over the housing units that have been constructed by AVIC International as part of the 2, 350 housing units being constructed across the country.

Katanga said the completion of the housing units was a true testimony from government to ensure decent housing accommodation for police officers.

She said that accommodation has been a serious challenge for the police command across the country.

Katanga said with the police station having been constructed in 2015, for the past three years officers have been commuting from their different homes.

The Provincial Commissioner stated that with 34 officers, the 12 housing units will help some officers to be within the police camp.

She further directed the District Police Command that the allocation of houses be done in a fair manner.
