If they don’t do anything now they will never do it. wrong place is wrong place. In some cities in the Africa you cant grow crop more that 16 inches tall. Next year these people won’t cultivate on wrong place again. I hope next step will be demolish house built on ilegal land…sanity has to prevail. .Bravo BT City…..Other cities copy this
The city council is doing what is right. No where in the civilized world will you see gardens of maize in the city. Worse, within road reserves. We are always admiring cities of other countries which look nice . This is simply because they have built their cities following laid down plans , enforcing regulations and by-laws.

Thus nothing except road construction or related activities are legal within a road reserve. We have just been a country that has not… Read more »

Kasunda I thought you went to chancellor college???? Maize when slashed does not grow like bluegum tree. No wonder chanco is not among the top 1000 universities.
Awa ndiye maso mphenya a bwana Profesa Pitala Munthalika. boma lodziwa kukonza zinthu komanso la chitukuko silinga pose pamene. Bwana mwachita ntchito yotamandika ndithu mzinda udzi kongola olo anthu atamagona ndi njala. Mtsogoleri wathu samaoneka podutsa mu nseu. Mpake ena amamulanda envelop ya ndalama
They are simply enforcing the law. We can’t continue conduct business that way. We need to became abiding citizens. I hope this will serve as a lesson to many more others who take things for granted.
