President HAKAINDE HICHILEMA has instituted a one week Survey in Luapula province to establish urgent interventions that people need to utilise natural resources.

President HICHILEMA has tasked Luapula Province Minister NJAVWA SIMUTOWE to coordinate the survey with the Ministries of Agriculture, Fisheries and Livestock, and Energy.
