DEAR, ASPIRING CANDIDATES FOR THE MATERO CONSTITUENCY,
We love and appreciate you, and you inspire us to learn more from your generous hearts that we see when you campaign for the election. We always wish that this generosity could continue forever after you have won.
However, letβs change the game and do things differently. Many of you aspiring candidates often come with one strategy: Sponsoring a FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT. While this is commendable and supports our youth, it is where your efforts typically end. There are many other things you can do that would benefit not only the young boys who participate but also young girls, as well as our mothers, fathers, and grandparents.
Why is it so difficult to establish something permanent in our community that would benefit everyone? For example, in the Matero constituency, particularly in the Mwembeshi ward, we have a small clinic post (Chimwemwe) that operates only from 8 AM to 4 PM. Imagine the stress people face when they need to visit a clinic or hospital. This facility is so limited that women cannot even deliver there. Think about the challenges they encounter when they are about to give birth; they must travel all the way to George Clinic or Matero Level One Hospital, often on poorly maintained roads that cab drivers refuse to navigate, especially late at night.
As residents of the Matero constituency, we need you to help us find lasting solutions to our daily problems and challenges. We hear about the increased CDF money, so we urge you, as future leaders, to advocate for the expansion of the Chimwemwe clinic. If it means purchasing nearby houses to facilitate this, please do so, and ensure the clinic operates 24/7.
Thank you.
ISAAC MULENGA, CONCERNED CITIZEN
