October 15, 2025“Other regions have oil; we have mountains and forests. Go to the forests and collect firewood,” presidential candidate Nandala Mafabi is quoted in the media to have said during his campaign in Sebei yesterday.

It is time to promote clean cooking solutions that are sustainable, inclusive, and resilient to protect both our forests and the vulnerable communities.
