Inhabitants arround the Kumba Market area were thankful to the Kumba City Mayor who quickly came to their rescue when they cried foul.

"This area was a dumping ground and we are happy that the City Mayor has heard our cry and has come to our aid. The area was nasty and drug dealers use to use a portion of the area to smoke.This made movement difficult, one is very scared to move about in the night", A lady told Civiclens.

"It has been a cry for those of us arround the Kumba Market area, other streets have been maintained but this one has been left out. Thanks to the Kumba City Mayor we are experiencing development. This street leads to the Kumba high and also gives money to the Kumba City Council,gratitude goes to the Kumba City Mayor, Mayor Gregory Mewanu." A buisness Man said.
