CHONGWE MUNICIPAL COUNCIL VERIFIES SECONDARY SCHOOL BURSARY BENEFICIARIES.

Chongwe- 30th May,2026

Chongwe Municipal Council has commenced the verification exercise for secondary school bursary beneficiaries under the Constituency Development Fund (CDF) in a move aimed at strengthening transparency and accountability in the distribution of educational support.

The verification team, comprising officers from the Socio-Economic Planning Unit, Internal Audit Department and Finance Department, has been visiting various secondary schools across the district to confirm the number of pupils currently enrolled in boarding schools and benefiting from the bursary programme.

Today, the team conducted verification exercises at Mulalika Secondary School,Mikango Secondary School and Katoba Secondary School.

The exercise is intended to ensure that deserving learners continue to benefit from the bursary support while promoting proper utilization of public resources under the CDF programme.

Through the secondary school bursary initiative, many vulnerable and underprivileged learners in Chongwe District have been given an opportunity to access quality education without the burden of school fees.

The Constituency Development Fund continues to play a significant role in transforming communities through investments in education, infrastructure, skills development and other community-based projects aimed at improving people’s livelihoods.

Chongwe Municipal Council remains committed to ensuring that CDF resources reach the intended beneficiaries and contribute positively to the social and economic development of the district.

ECZ -BEST WISHES TO OUR VEFs AS THEY GET ASSESSED AHEAD OF THEIR DEPLOYMENT FOR VOTER EDUCATION ACTIVITIES.

Chongwe- Thursday 28th May,2026

Chongwe Municipal Council Town Clerk, Mr. Damson Mukwato, together with the Director of Engineering Services Eng. Edward Banda, visited Chitentabunga Village in Manyika Ward to inspect the ongoing construction of a Constituency Development Fund(CDF) funded road.

Speaking during the inspection, Mr. Mukwato said the Council remains committed to taking development to all communities across the district. He explained that improved road networks are important for enhancing access to essential services and improving the lives of local people.

He further stressed the importance of professionalism, transparency and accountability in the implementation of CDF projects so that communities can fully benefit from government resources.

Headman Chitentabunga expressed gratitude for the new road, saying the old road had been heavily encroached on by local farming activities, making movement difficult for the community.

The traditional leader said the new road will restore order and dignity to the area by improving access to schools, hospitals and other social services. He added that the road will also make it easier for farmers to transport their produce to markets.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Angela Bwalya of Mutubisha Village said the community is happy and thankful to finally have a reliable road that will improve daily life for the people.

The road project, which stretches from the main road to the local school, includes road formation, gravel dumping and compacting works.

This project is expected to greatly improve connectivity and support economic and social development in the area.
