Education Minister Douglas Syakalima has expressed concern over the continued illegal occupation of land belonging to the Ministry of Education.
Mr. Syakalima made the remarks shortly before conducting an on-the-spot inspection of encroached land in Lusaka’s Munali Constituency.
The land, which is designated for educational development, has been illegally occupied, raising concerns about the future expansion of infrastructure in the area.
Meanwhile, Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources Permanent Secretary Patrick Mucheleka pledged firm action against individuals involved in illegal land allocation.
Munali Constituency Member of Parliament Mike Mposha also committed to working with the community to ensure the encroached land is repossessed and used for the expansion of educational facilities.
