Speaking at the end of the three-day working visit to the province, Joa\u0303o Baptista Borges said that the construction projects for the Calucuve, Ndue and other dams on the right bank of the Cunene river were progressing at a good pace.<\/p>\n

“We will continue to work hard so that in three years these projects are completed, in order to cover the areas most affected by the effects of the drought in the region”, he stressed.<\/p>\n

The goal, according to the minister, is to walk in the certainty that within the foreseen period the reality in Cunene will be different, which requires more effort and sacrifice.<\/p>\n

He made it known that he is returning to Cunene to visit the rehabilitation works of the nine dams underway in the municipality of Curoca, as well as to start work on the Cova do Lea\u0303o dam, located in Cahama.<\/p>\n

“The most important thing was that we were able to get in touch with the reality of the projects and we can see the work that has been done and what remains to be done, in the hope of finding the most advanced things”, he said.<\/p>\n

Joa\u0303o Baptista Borges congratulated the provincial government, contractors, inspectors and designers, who have been a dedicated team, for the \u201cbrilliant\u201d contribution they are making to end the drought.<\/p>\n

In turn, the inspector from the company Coba, Miguel Costelia, said that work on the Cova do Lea\u0303o dam would start in August this year, as part of the projects on the right bank of the Cunene river.<\/p>\n

As for the rehabilitation works of the nine dams underway in the municipality of Curoca, he informed that two are already in the completion phase.<\/p>\n

Minister Joa\u0303o Baptista Borges made a three-day working visit to Cunene province, where he learned about the level of execution of the construction work on the Ndue\u0301 and Calucuve dams, as well as the projects on the right bank of the Cunene river.<\/p>\n

The Ndue\u0301 and Calucuve dams, inserted in the Cuvelai basin, will benefit 136,000 people, 260,000 head of cattle, in addition to allowing the irrigation of 11,600 hectares of agricultural land.<\/p>\n
