Contractors putting up shoddy works to be blacklisted — Kitwe official

0

Contractors putting up shoddy works whenever awarded contracts will be black listed as government cannot afford to lose money on such works, warns Kitwe Town Clerk, Patrick Kambita.

Kambita noted that contractors awarded contracts under the Constituency Development Fund (CDF) were writing themselves a prescription of failure or success depending on the quality of works they were putting up.

He was speaking on Saturday when he toured Katoka Mema Bridge where he said in a statement that he was impressed with the quality of works.

Kambita urged other contractors to ensure that they put up quality works or get black listed for putting up shoddy works.

“This bridge is a quality piece of work and I am impressed with it. The message to all contractors is that they were writing themselves a prescription of failure or success depending on the quality of works they were putting up.

“For those contractors putting up shoddy works, they will be blacklisted. We do not want to entertain mediocrity. No. We are using tax payers’ money and so must-see quality works from their money,” Kambita said.
