Outspoken opposition Democratic Union (DU) President Ackim Njobvu has challenged the administration of President Hakainde Hichilema to be practical in the delivery of major development projects.
Njobvu said the UPND government has been allocating funds for the construction of the Zambia-Tanzania Power Interconnector for the past five years without completing the project.
“The UPND government has been budgeting for construction of the power inter-connector with Tanzania for the past 5 years but no completion up to now,” Njobvu said.

The opposition leader has also called on government to move beyond rhetoric and expedite the construction of universities, stating that the institutions are badly needed and long overdue.
“For the universities, be practical no rhetoric. They are needed badly and are long overdue,” he added.
The Zambia-Tanzania interconnector is seen as a key project to enhance power trade and energy security in the region.
