THE rehabilitation of Chisokone Green Market and Matuka Avenue ablution blocks have been completed at costs of K350,000.
Chisokone Green Market rehabilitation gobbled K200, 000 while the ablution blocks were completed at a cost of K150, 000.

The projects have been done under the Local Government Equalization Fund meant for various developmental projects within the district.
According the Kitwe City Council, the contractor, Proflight Investments Limited, completed the works.
Council Public Relations Manager, Chola Mwamba, said the target of the local authority was to complete the two projects before the onset of the rains.
Ms Mwamba said this was to enable traders and the general public have access to improved sanitation and prevent for seasonal outbreak of diseases such as cholera.
“The local authority is aware that there is need to adequately improve access to clean toilets in some trading areas within the district be-cause of the high demand of use of toilets,” she said.
Ms Mwamba urged all traders from Chisokone Green Market and those trading along Matuka Avenue to work together with the council to ensure that high levels of hygiene were maintained.
She appealed to the traders and the general public to jealously guard the toilets from vandalism, once they were open for use.
She said the council was committed to ensuring that the general public had access to clean toilets in public places as Zambia joins the rest of the world in commemorating world toilet day on November 19, 2020.
She therefore stated that the rehabilitated toilets would soon be open to the public as logistics for maintaining them were being put in place.
