Eastern Province added to the Northern Circuit to increase investment opportunities.

President Edgar Lungu has added Eastern Province to northern circuit.
Eastern Province Permanent Secretary Chanda Kasolo says that the head of state has added Eastern Province to Luapula, Muchuinga and Northern provinces which were forming northern circuit.
Mr. Kasolo says that this means that it will now be easy for the provinces to do various investments because of the road networks.
He says the tarring of the Mambwe-Mpika road and Lundazi, Chama-Chinsali roads were the kind of projects which had connected the eastern to the north.
Mr. Kasolo says eastern was currently sharing the South Luangwa National Park and that the new system would enable the 4 provinces to share the resources for investment purposes.
