Minister Peter whilst thanking Governor Wenge for passing the K644 Million Budget , welcomed the huge funding appropriation towards education.
However Minister Peter said Law and Order problems in the community is still a great challenge and therefore students being sponsored must take full responsibility of coming back to serve their people in the province and district’s.
