LUSAKA, 5th October 2022 – GOVERNMENT has released K33 million for the clearance of the salary arrears for TAZARA employees ending September 2022.

He said the TAZARA case has been on the priority list of the developmental programmes that Government committed itself to achieving.
The Minister added that, Government worked round the clock with the TAZARA management to complete the repair works on damaged Chambeshi Railway Bridge based in Kanchibiya District and cargo trains have started moving.


Hon. TAYALI says that after the successful completion of the Bridge, the President Mr. Hakainde Hichilema has instructed that the passenger trains must immediately start operating on the TAZARA.
