PRESIDENT HICHILEMA DATES NORTH WESTERN PROVINCE
President Hakainde Hichilema is tomorrow expected in Northwestern Province for a one day working visit to officiate at the opening of Kansanshi Mine’s S3, a 1. 2 Billion United States dollar investment expansion project whose construction has been completed.
Speaking during a media briefing in Solwezi today, Provincial Minister, Robert Lihefu disclosed that the 1.2 Billion dollar investment is expected to have a positive impact on the economy of Zambia.
Mr Lihefu says this is in line with President Hakainde Hichilema’s vision of increasing copper production to three million tonnes per annum by the year 2031.
The S3 involves expanding the mining pit, constructing a new processing plant, and enlarging the smelter, aiming to increase copper production and extend the Mine’s lifespan.
The project is a key component of Kansanshi’s growth and is expected to significantly boost copper production.
The S3 project represents a substantial investment of US$1.25 billion.


People like my Name,the Mulengas,the Bwalyas,the chandas,the phiris the Banda,the Mwambas of this world can never comment on such an achievement.
Let’s Just learn to appreciate HH that he is working and deliverying.We liquidated and closed these mines with the Milingos as the lawyers, giving themselves big shares just for closing these mines. We all know who took the massive elephant chunk of meat. They are not ashamed of themselves, and they will never be…Today they are crying to come back.What kind of people are these?
Careful, these Lunda’s and Lavale’s are at it again with their medieval bow and arrow wars, the president should take time to meet these people and resolve, otherwise outlaw their tradition for the next five years until they learn to live with one another in harmony. The people are funny, when you ask them why they fight each other, they go back to history many years ago and claim that their ancestors left them that medieval decree against each other and to them that is justification enough to aim bows and arrows against each other’s bums. This must come to an end.
