Libala residents are concerned with the lack of development on a land which the Lusaka City Council (LCC) sold to a Chinese private developer.

The land situated on Chilumbulu road was sold five years ago to Zhongyang and Hua Jiang Construction Group Company.

However, the land has been subject to political wrangles as some people feel LCC should not have sold the land to the Chinese developer.

Despite the company writing to LCC requesting for a building permit on a portion of the property, LCC has not responded.

The Company through its lawyers, Muleza Mwiimbu and Company has threatened to commence legal action against the local authority if it does not respond to its request.
