Africa-Press – Angola. The provincial governor of Huambo, Lotti Nolika, augured better days for the province, despite the difficult economic situation the country is experiencing.
Speaking this Tuesday, as part of the working visit of the Vice-President of the Republic, Esperança da Costa, starting this Wednesday, the government official said that the socio-economic situation is worrying for the populations, especially the basic food basket issue.
He pointed out difficulties in agriculture, regarding fertilizers and the poor condition of access roads to cultivable areas, which would facilitate the transport of products and other means from the countryside to the center and vice versa.
Without specifying data, Lotti Nolika said that Huambo was a productive province, which had reasonable results in the last agricultural year, but currently the soils are facing problems, as they are aged and require fertilizers, in addition to other means.
However, he recognizes that the Executive has been devising strategies to mitigate the situation and called for everyone’s participation, at the province level, in this task.
“We have difficulties, due to the situation the country is experiencing, but there is hope that better days will come”, he asserted.
Focus
The governor added that, regardless of the difficulties, the Vice-President will find a province focused on growth, whose citizens are engaged in order to contribute to the best in the various sectors.
According to Lotti Nolika, one of the challenges is to transform Huambo into a professional training capital, which is why the approach, during the visit, includes issues linked to projects such as the Cultural Centers of Huambo, Journalist Training (Cefojor) and Integrated Technological Training (Cinfotec).
Issues relating to health shortages, medicines, transport and human resources, traffic management and landfills are also part of the concerns to be reviewed.
The Vice-President of the Republic, Esperança da Costa, works from this Wednesday, until Friday, in the province of Huambo, within the scope of privileged monitoring of the Education, Higher Education and Environment sectors.
Your program in the central plateau includes visits to the Center for Tropical Ecology and Climate Change (CETAC) and facilities at Higher Education institutions, with emphasis on the José Eduardo dos Santos University (UJES), which brings together the faculties of Agricultural Sciences, Law , Economy, Medicine, Veterinary Medicine and the Polytechnic Institute.
