Ombudsman arrives in Nsanje district investigating on the unfinished projects and those projects constructed in substandard ways.
District Commissioner, Dr Medson Matchaya disclosed this in a full council meeting currently underway in the council chamber.
Among other projects, Mtowe Technical College which is yet to be completed in the area of Chief Ndamera in the district, was pegged at K700 million and the contractor,Mitondo Building, withdrew almost K450 million.
According to the contractor, Jonathan Ganda, told this reporter that he was offered the contract without documents.
Another project which has been dumped after millions of kwachas have been plundered is the Tengani Technical college. This college has stalled for a year after the Chinese who were warded the contract and pocketed undisclosed amount of millions, abandoned it prematurely.
While two bridges which are under government funding and worth K28 million have been constructed in substandard .
Meanwhile, council members have expressed dismay over the development.
