Livingstone City Council Deputy Director of Public Health Gregory Banda said the local authority and other stakeholders have been sensitizing the street vendors on the need to move to the Livingstone City Market which is a designated trading place.
Mr Banda said the market provides good sanitation for the traders adding that there is need to enhance measures so that the city does not record any case of Chorela which has been recorded in some parts of the country.
He said this in an interview with Zambezi FM news during the cleaning exercise .
He said the local authority will enhance collaboration with other stakeholders to ensure that the traders remain in the market and do not return on the streets.
And Chairperson of the Keep Livingstone Clean Campaign Benjamin Mibenge said the moving of the street vendors to the city market is for the benefit of all residents as any disease outbreak will affect everyone.
Mr Mibenge said the cleaning exercise is done every last week of every month and that there is need for every citizen to take part in the exercise for a better Livingstone.
