The Mayor of Nacala Porto, in Nampula
province Faruk, held a meeting with neighborhood secretaries at the Praça dos
Heróis, more than a year after his election a period deemed lengthy by local
leaders and residents alike.
On the morning of May 8, 2025, Mayor Faruk
conducted an important meeting with the city’s neighborhood secretaries. This
gathering, the first since his inauguration, was prompted by growing concerns
among the secretaries, who had long awaited the opportunity to present their
demands and challenges.
The need for dialogue became evident to the
president after he heard murmurs regarding a lack of communication between the
municipal administration and neighborhood representatives. During the meeting,
which began at 9 a.m., Faruk emphasized his intention to listen to the
secretaries' concerns and share his plans for the city's development.
One of the main topics discussed was the
ongoing water supply project in several neighborhoods. The mayor also
highlighted the importance of road construction and the establishment of
educational institutions, continuing work initiated by the previous mayor.
Faruk noted that many neighborhoods are lacking schools, hospitals, and police
stations, making it difficult for children and families to access essential
services.
The secretaries took this opportunity to
voice their frustrations and aspirations, drawing comparisons with the previous
administration under a president known as Ruca. They pointed out that the lack
of coordination between the municipal administration and local leaders has hindered
community development.
Faruk acknowledged this communication gap
and committed to improving dialogue with secretaries to ensure that residents'
needs are met.
For now, the people of Nacala Porto eagerly
await the fulfillment of promises made during what many consider a crucial
meeting. BP
