By Staff Reporter 

Heavy rains have blown off the roofs of the Bufuke Recreation Centre in Butondo Township, in Mufulira District on the Copperbelt Province.

Eyewitnesses have told Mafken News that the roofs were blown off the facility on Sunday afternoon due to strong winds.

Residents have called on the Disaster Management and Mitigation Unit (DMMU) to assist with the rehabilitation of the facility, highlighting that Bufuke Club is the only active recreation centre in Kankoyo Constituency, and many young people rely on it for talent identification.

Meanwhile, Bufuke Ward Development Committee Secretary Jameson Chalwe has revealed that plans are already in place to rehabilitate the facility using the 2025 Constituency Development Fund.
