Apostle Clifford Kawinga, Managing Director of Creck Hardware and General Suppliers, has donated two firefighting trucks worth approximately K300 million to the Ministry of Local Government.
The donation is aimed at strengthening firefighting and emergency response services under the administration of President Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika.
The two trucks were handed over during a ceremony at Capital Hill in Lilongwe.
Speaking at the ceremony, Apostle Kawinga said the donation demonstrates his commitment to supporting government efforts and addressing critical needs affecting communities.
He said Creck Hardware and General Suppliers will continue complementing government efforts in strengthening essential public services and improving community safety.
Receiving the donation, Minister of Local Government Ben Phiri thanked Kawinga and Creck Hardware and General Suppliers for the contribution, describing it as an important boost to the country’s firefighting capacity.
The Ministry said one truck has been allocated to Mangochi Municipal Council, while the other will serve Lilongwe City Council.
The donation is expected to improve the councils’ ability to respond to fire emergencies and protect lives and property.
