The University of Zambia management says it is working tirelessly to rehabilitate and clean its Great East road and Ridgeway campuses to meet the health standards before re-opening.

Mr. Wamundila was speaking at a media briefing after a tour of sanitary facilities at the University of Zambia.
He told the media that one million kwacha has so far been spent to rehabilitate ablution blocks, mend water leakages and General improvement of water supply.
And Mr. Wamundila said management has put in place measures to ensure there will be no squatting taking place.
Meanwhile, Mr. Wamundila has thanked the government for helping clear the debt of over two Billion Kwacha.
He has also thanked the government for increasing the number of students on bursaries.
