The increasing number of prospecting mining licenses being issued to foreigners in Ikeleng’i district has unsettled stakeholders.
Ikelenge district commissioner Victor Kayekese fears that once such acts are left unchecked the district which houses the source of the Zambezi River may have nothing to show for it.

The Zambezi River water source site is located at Kaleni hills and surrounded by a preserved 38.6 hectares of national forests.
