“You have seen for yourselves construction of the bridges, the Kasama Technical Centre and water and electricity projects that have been done here,” he said.

In support of the minister’s remarks, DPP Deputy Director of Youths in the North, Philemon Ntambo said the construction of Kasama Technical Centre will help promote skills development and entrepreneurship among the youth in the district.

‘All these projects can tell the future of the party and I don’t doubt in that the party will sail through,’ Ntambo added.
