What exactly are you doing? Did ZESCO or ERB mislead you on the power projections & Kariba situation when you said load shedding has ended? If so, what are you doing about those that misled you? If not, why didn’t you consult before announcing to the whole world?
We’re very much alive to the disruptions caused by ongoing load shedding to various economic sectors, vital installations & ordinary households. Doing everything in our power to mitigate these challenges. Our vision is clear; to build a vibrant economy for our citizens.
