From Hon. Abida Sidik Mia Deputy Minister of Lands.
$90,000 GRANT SECURED TO CONSTRUCT CLINIC IN MY CONSTITUENCY
Dear Friends,
I am pleased to inform you that I have secured a $90,000 grant from the Japanese Embassy to construct a modern health clinic in Therere catchment area in my Chikwawa Nkombedzi Constituency. The grant signing ceremony took place at the Japanese Embassy this week.
The clinic, once completed, will cater for a population of 12,000 people. The people in this community currently walk a very long distance to seek medical services to a nearest health facility and this project formed part of the social contract from myself as their leader and them as my constituents. As an icing on the cake, I will build two staff houses for the clinic using the constituency development fund.
Therefore, apart from fulfilling my promise to the people, this project will not only reduce the high mortality rate in the area but will also go a long way in improving safe motherhood in my constituency.
Abida Sidik Mia, MP
Deputy Minister of Lands.
