State House has instructed that Miles Sampa’ s Mayoral office be locked until he returns from the U.S and further ordered that Deputy Mayor Chilando Chitangala acts in his place as provided for by law.
Sampa had wriiten a letter of appointment to his best friend Councillor Adrian Banda to act in his place which is against the Local Government Act.
A visit to the Mayor’s office today around 11:00 hrs found it shut.
When Councillor Banda reported for work as Sampa’s ‘Acting Mayor’, two officers from OP found him taking photos of himself in Mayor’s office and was told finalise doing whatever he was doing and go back home and continue selling fritters as they had instructions from the top to order him to vacate the office.
