Currently, many people use charcoal and firewood for cooking which leads to environmental damage and pollution.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the refilling plant in Nampula is in its final stage of construction and the others, in Tete and Pemba, will also be open soon.<\/p>\n<p>Muhai also revealed that the project is attracting the attention of national and international partners and that negotiations are currently underway with some of them. In particular, he mentioned the World Bank, the African Development Bank, and Mozambique\u2019s National Investment Bank (BNI). However, he stressed that work on the project is currently going ahead with funding through the Infrastructure Fund.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
