    Hi there, I just became one of your subscribers. I’m a Liberian- American living in the US, this is the same street vending problems that Liberia is facing. As a result, Monrovia has become one of the dirtiest capital city in Africa. I’m so proud of your leaders for taking that giant step. I wish Liberian leaders could follow your example.

    I'm in disbelief. They actually pulled it off 👏👏👍👍 I wonder how long it will last? Hopefully this is permanent and the beggers and vendors don't start rioting to overturn the order and sanity currently taking place. If Rwanda has successfully pulled it off so can Zambia. Thank you for showcasing this.

    I like what I’m seeing, which is the starting point of a clean Lusaka again. For those of us who lived under KK’s reign, our souls were always vexed seeing streets vendors everywhere & filthy in our CBD. The council should not employ or contract people who can clean the streets & the main passage ways of the markets each day. The vendors who have agreed to go into the markets should be given a one month grace period from paying the daily or monthly levy. The Council should also get the shop owners to start painting their shops & contributions to a council fund that will employ pavement contractors to repair all the pavements in the CBD & make them walk friendly for the elderly & the disabled people. Further, the Council should introduce car parking inspectors who’ll be collecting parking fees electronically at a reasonable price before installing electronic payment CBD machines. The street islands should also be contracted to gardeners to plant flowers & water the grass.
    It’s unpopular to remove street vendors but it’s good for the health of the residents. Clean cities attract many tourists who bring in foreign exchange for the good of the local economy.
    By the way, if Zambians in Livingstone are surviving & are happily trading in markets, Zambians in Lusaka should not be pitted for being being removed from the streets. The ones who sell around street lights (or robots) should also be removed. With CDF, all the young people who sell on the roads should get funding & do business in markets.
    Thanks for the video & Plse, do a follow up one of these streets during the next month or three months.

      You're right bro as Zambians we are fond of going back and forth and are not stable,a policy will do. In future another ruling party will bring them back for political reasons. Therefore we need a permanent policy against street vending. So far we are one of the dirtiest country in Africa

Zambia is trying hard to move with the times and improve the infrastructure. What they need to do is clean up Cairo Road! Demolish some of those old buildings and replace them with better skyscrapers! Thanks for your channel bro. I’m subbing👏🏾👍🏾❤

    We buyers also encourage them. We will follow them wherever they will be selling. 2018 cleanup was good but it didn't last long. I hear they were allowed back on the streets awaiting a solution. Awe sure the filth was too much. Urine and human waste was in shake shake packs in the streets😮. CLEANLINESS IS NEXT TO GODLINESS. We need order in the city. The pavements must be fixed and drainage improved in the cbd.

    Is it bad? Of course not, this was what was supposed to be done earlier on cause there is no way one can cook in the streets and block part of the lanes where cars can pass, it was totally out of control,I want to thank the city authorities for taking a good stance to remove them, this is what I used to say just implement it and it will cost you nothing,the authorities knew what was supposed to be done but they never had courage to do so. I am looking forward now for the authorities to instruct the owners of the structures to re-done them cause those structures are not worth to be in town centre or just demolish them for they are making the town to look dirty and filthy.

    I hope they did build markets with water and toilets where the vendors could sell their goods. If they did not, they will be back on the streets because they have to make a living. We all want to be living in nice, orderly cities, but in these economies where it is hard to find a decent job, selling whateva you can to survive is the only means to feed your family. The minister will find out soon that this is not possible without giving the populace a clear alternative to survive.

  • @thesoundofsilence1763
    @thesoundofsilence1763 Год назад

    This kind of cleanup thing usually fails if the vigilance is not kept up for A VERY LONG TIME. The government or city council must keep up the kick-out effort daily for up to 2 years. It's like changing a habit/mindset. After some time the vendors will find alternative ways of survival and give up. Otherwise, if the vigilance drops they'll be back one by one. I've always seen it fail in my city in E. Africa

    According to my view on city market I don't think there is space for those traders otherwise the move of removing street vending was a welcome move but it was at a wrong time they would have first find a place where to take those people unlike chasing them without direction this is their nation it's their mother land. You can't your son at home when you know he has no where to go dispute how troublesome he can be don't chase him chase him when you find a place where he can settle. And the issue of Simon mwewa market those people don't know when or which year it will be officially open . All in All only God is the keeper of their lives and their struggles coz he is the Father to the Fatherless and the Voice to the Voiceless.
