Defence Minister EDGAR LUNGU has described as a scandal where a Mozambican National has been allowed to operate an Airstrip in Luangwa District.
A Mozambican national only identified as Mr. CARLOS has been operating an airstrip in the area and has been charging landing and departure fees without the knowledge of Zambian authorities.
Mr. LUNGU says there is need to establish how a Mozambican national has been allowed to operate an airstrip in Zambia. Mr. LUNGU was speaking when he inspected the airstrip in Luangwa. District Commissioner, EUNIE MUMBA said there were no records at the council to show how a Mozambican national was given authority to manage the airstrip.
