Nalumisa adds this is an urgent move as some properties are old and the structures are no longer safe.

“The one that we have right now is Mead Road Estate, and we are also trying to identify other places. PRB and those flats have been there for more than 50 years, and they have surpassed their economic lives.”

Nalumisa says they are looking at options to move tenants to other properties or send them back to their villages.
