He also donated 2 glucometers with 200 strips, cleaning detergents and a thermometer.

Mr Chilundika who is also Luapula Minister donated some baby hampers to the nursing mothers at the health facility.

He said by next year the construction to extend the mini hospital will commence because the allocation to the hospital has been given under Constituency Development Fund (CDF).

Mr Chilundika also donated cleaning detergents to Kabundi clinic and glucometers to Kings Health post.
