Phiri makes a point during the meeting

He said “The aim of the conference is to solicit views of residents to improve service delivery. We also want the residents to tell us where we are going wrong, so that together we can fix things for the benefit of everyone in our city.

 “We heard the aspirations of the people, but for that to happen there is need for them to do their part such as paying city rates,” he said.

Some of the key concerns raised were the need for the council to intensify recovery of unpaid rates, the need to end roadside markets, the need for the council to expedite construction of Zomba Stadium, expansion of some markets in the city to create more space and replacement of traffic lights near the District Commissioner’s office.

One of the residents, Daniel Phiri, asked the council to incorporate the people’s input and improve on enforcement of rules governing the council.
