District Overview
Geography – Surface area, major natural features.
Surface area
Itezhi-tezhi is one of the eleven districts of the Central Province of Zambia.
It is located in the south-western part of the Province and lies at approximately 175km north of Mumbwa and 62Km West of Namwala District across the Kafue River on the North Bank. It is situated 26 degrees South and 15 degrees East and shares boarders with other districts namely: Luampa in the west, Kazungula and Kalomo in south-west, Choma in the south, Namwala in the south-east and Mazabuka in the east. Itezhi-tezhi district has an approximate surface area of about 16,064.00 square kilometers.
Itezhi-tezhi District has three distinct seasons: the rainy season from November to April; the cold season from May to July; and the hot season from August to October. The average mean rainfall is 40mm. The district experiences seasonal geographical barriers; this is mainly due to the landscape in which the district lies. Most areas particularly those in the Kafue basin get flooded during the rainy season, consequently become impassable between the months of November to May
The temperatures range between 8 degrees centigrade in the cold season and 36 degrees centigrade in the hot dry season. This climate is favorable for agriculture but the local people have not yet realized this potential, mostly due to unaffordable prices of agricultural inputs.
Topography
Swampy plains through which the Kafue River passes cover about 60% of the district. This plain, commonly known as the Kafue Flats, floods every year. The flood renders most of the roads virtually impassable for a period of over four months. The “Flats” also offer infinite breeding grounds to mosquitoes, hence the high incidence of malaria in the district. The remaining 40% is highland covered by thick forests. Part of the forest is designated as the Kafue National Park. This has resulted into limited land for farming purposes. Hills and savannah type of vegetation characterize the forestland.
Soil structure in the plains is muddy clay while in highlands it varies from sandy terrain to rocky/ loamy soil in the northern part. The poor soil texture negatively affects food production capacity of the district, thereby resulting into a relatively high incidence of malnutrition, especially among the under five children.
Hydrology
The Kafue River is the biggest river in the district and it is from this river that a magnificent man-made lake emanates. This lake, called Lake Itezhi-Tezhi resulted from a ZESCO dam that was constructed across the Kafue River in 1976. The lake serves as a reservoir for generation of electricity at Kafue Gorge. In addition, it offers livelihood to the local people through fishing and tourism. The Kafue River has four (4) main tributaries and these are; Nanzhila, Nkala, Luubwe and Kasaka, which dry up during the dry season.
Vegetation
The vegetation cover can be divided in 2 ecological zones and these are:
I. The Baroste influence of the sandy soils covered with Miombo woodlands. This is a result of the proximity of the district to Western province, particularly Kaoma district.
II. The low valleys with alluvial clay soil covered with the acacias and short grass on the highlands and hippo grass on the plains.
Total population of the district, population above 18, and registered voters
Itezhi-Tezhi district has a population of 68,599, with an annual growth rate of 4.8 % (CSO 2010). It has a surface area of approximately 16,064.00 sq. km, giving a population density of 4.3 persons per square kilometer. Generally, Itezhi-tezhi’s population is pre-dominantly rural. The urban population is only about 18,000 or 26 percent of the total district population.
With a total of 68,599 people, the district has about 12,237 households. This implies that the average size of a household is 6 members.
The projected population for Itezhi-Tezhi district as of 2019 is 98, 234
The breakdown of the population according to wards in Itezhi-tezhi district based on the 2000 census report is as follows:

Government Institutions
Government institutions include;
Agriculture, Marketing & Co-operatives, Veterinary &
Fisheries, Health, National Agriculture Information Services, Forestry, Chiefs and Traditional Affairs. ZAWA, Council, Education, Community Development, Mother and Child Health, Police, National Registration, Immigration, Office of The President, ZANIS.
Security: Police Posts and Stations
The district has only one police station which has 2 cells to house both men and women.
These cells have a combined capacity of 12 inmates, but are forced to accommodate as much as 25 inmates due to inadequate infrastructure. Fourteen police officers (all male) are operating at the police station, out of an optimum number of 30. There are 16 staff houses, which are adequate for the number of officers currently at the station.
Urban Water Supply infrastructure
The main source of water supply for the urban area is surface water pumped from Itezhi-tezhi lake. ZESCO does the treatment, pumping and distribution to the uphill community. Lukanga Water and Sewerage Company do the distribution of water to all areas downhill. The capacity of the system is enough to service the whole township even for the next 10 years.
Below is the new automated water treatment and pumping system.

The district is accessed by three major roads, namely
Itezhi tezhi – Mongu road junction (115 km)
Itezhi tezhi – Dundumwezi to Kalomo (199 km)
Itezhi tezhi – Namwala (65 km). There is a pontoon which crosses
the Kafue river along this road
The district also has a feeder road network totaling about 816 km, which links rural health centers and rural communities. All the feeder roads are gravel roads, making it difficult to reach rural communities especially during the rainy season since they pass through flood plains
In the urban part of the district are 18 township roads totaling about 25 km. Of these roads, only one is tarred and the remainders are gravel. In addition to the roads, the district has a total of 16 bridges, out of which 13 are in good condition and only 3 or 31 percent are in poor condition.

Power and Communication
The district has a 120 megawatt hydro power station.
Telecommunication services are available in the district. This service is provided by Zamtel, MTN AND Airtel. Other means of communication within the district is by VHF and HF radios. HF radios are found at ZESCO offices, MACO, OOP and ZAWA. ZESCO and MOH have VHF radios for short distance usage.
Postal Services
The quality of services being provided by Postal services is quite good and efficient. Every Sunday, Mail is delivered to Mumbwa while mail from Mumbwa is brought to Itezhi Tezhi every Monday. Also whenever other departments travel to Mumbwa for Official duties, they help out by carrying some mail on behalf of the Postal Services.
For more services like Telegraph, the Postal service is relying on ZAMTEL to improve their services. The Postal
Service intends to introduce water transport services between Itezhi Tezhi and Namwala.
Housing
Housing is a critical issue in the district due to the increasing numbers of people coming to the district. The district has a serious housing deficit. Currently, the majority of government workers are accommodated by ZESCO. It has a total of 214 housing units made up of 23 high cost, 69 medium cost and 122 low cost units. A number of private individuals have put up houses in Masemu, Lilanda and other surrounding areas. Shelter Zambia has also facilitated the construction of medium cost house in the district. The Council has also embarked on a project to build institutional houses. So far the Council has 8 medium cost housing units.
Education Infrastructure.
The district has a total of 87 schools out of which 4 are secondary schools. One of the 4 secondary schools 1 is a boarding school. There are 76 primary schools out of which 24 are community schools. The 24 community schools were recently converted into government schools. In addition to government schools, the district has 5 private schools.
Distances to the Nearest School
On average children cover 5km walking to the nearest school in the district. The actual distance range covered is from less than 500m to 16km. This means that the distribution of schools in general terms is within the walk able distance.
Availability of and condition of classrooms
The district has a total of 124 classrooms against the optimum number of 285 classrooms. This entails that the district has classroom deficit of 56 percent or 160 classrooms. This situation is most critical in 16 schools which have high classroom deficiency levels of more than 50 percent. This could be attributed to the large numbers of people in their catchment areas.
Utilization of existing classroom infrastructure
The district has a total of 124 classrooms against a population of 10 396 pupils. In an optimum situation, the available classrooms are supposed to accommodate 4445 pupils. However, the classrooms are carrying an additional load of 5,951 pupils. This indicates that the district has over enrolled by 134 percent.
Availability and condition of sanitary facilities at schools
The district has a total number 87 VIPs out of the optimum number of 347. This represents a deficit of 75 percent. The urban schools have 19 WTs out of the optimum number of 103, representing a deficit of 82 percent. An additional 84 WTs are needed to reach optimum levels.
Availability and condition of water facilities at schools
The district has a total of 42 water points in the schools. The water points are generally in good condition with only about 3 percent in poor condition. On average, 248 pupils are using one water point and only one school does not have a water point
Availability of Power
Schools in the district have limited access to power, with only 25 percent having access to power. Out of this figure, 15 percent are connected to the ZESCO power supply. Seventy-five (75) percent do not have access to any form of power. This could be attributed to the fact that most of them are located more than 32 km away from the power supply mains.

Commercial Activities
Agriculture and livestock
The district is made up of small, medium and commercial farmers. The categorization is based on the farmland owned or cultivated by the farmer. A small scale farmer has up to 5 Ha of farmland while medium or emergent farmer has between 5 to 20 Ha of land. A farmer with more than 20 Ha of land is considered to be a commercial farmer.
According to the Ministry’s 2012 farmer census and by the above mentioned categorization, the district has a total of 7,220 small scale, 3,927 medium scale and 272 large scale farmers.
The total farm size for the district is estimated at 88,192 Ha while the total cultivated area is estimated at 30,056 Ha.
Crop production
Crop production in the district has improved over time. The district was predominantly livestock production district as per the Ila (indigenous inhabitants) custom. However, the migration of other tribes to the district such as the Tongas has seen the shift from livestock to crop production over the recent years.
Table 8; shows the 2017/18 crop production estimates for the district.

Livestock Production
Objective: To promote livestock diseases control and animal husbandry practices among small scale farmers and increase food security at household level.
Livestock Population
The district has recorded an increase in various categories of livestock over the years. The well-coordinated disease surveillance and combat has proved to be very helpful in livestock population increase.
Table 9: Livestock population as at June, 2014 for Itezhi-tezhi District
Source: ITT DSA, 2015
Livestock Products and Marketing
The most common livestock products sold in Itezhi-tezhi are Milk, both fresh and sour, Eggs, Minced meat and Sausages.
Itezhi-tezhi has no established abattoir hence Namwala provides the market for the Cattle from Itezhi-tezhi district through slaughters at Zambeef abattoir and Carcasses exported to Lusaka. The market for goats and pigs is shared between Lusaka and Kasumbalesa on the Copperbelt.
Fisheries Production
Overall Objective: To promote sustainable utilization of fisheries resources.
Fish stocks and Species
The fishing season in Itezhi-tezhi begins in March and ends in November with a three months fish ban (December to February) every year.
Lake Itezhi-tezhi has a variety of fish species.
In 1992, Kapenta was introduced in the lake from Lake Tanganyika and has proved to have established itself well in the lake. There is relatively high catches on selective species of breams and brycinus species commonly known as Nantongo locally. Breams of between 3 and 4 inches have recorded the highest in terms of catches.
The preliminary frame survey results obtained show a fisher population of 1,070 from the previous 767 in the 2007 frame survey. This represents a 39.5% increment in the fisher population over the last 12 years.
The other fish species available include; Schilbe intermedius (Schilbeidae), Labeo cylindricus and Barbus paludinosus (Cyprinidae), Synodontis macrostoma and Synodontis macrostigma (Mochokidae), Tilapia sparmanii, Sargochromis codringtonii and Serranochromis angusticeps (cichlidae), Limnothrissa miodon (Clupidae), Brycinus lateralis
(Characidae) and Petrocephalus catostoma (Mormyridae).
Preservation and Markets
Most of the fishers targeting the breams have opted to use salting as the best preservation method targeting Kasumbalesa as their main market whose main customers are from the Democratic Republic of Congo. Generally fresh fish is transported as frozen. Apart from Lusaka, Kitwe is also a very important market destination for most fish traders.
Tourism, Environment and Natural Resources
The district is endowed with a variety of tourist attractions. These include the following:
• Loongola and Bbilili hot springs
• Itezhitezhi dam and lake
• High diversity of flora and fauna species
• Heritage sites such as Nakalomo hills and old Nkala mission
• Kafue flats
• Human beings (culture)
• Peace and tranquility
• Caves
and Shivering trees

Infrastructure and Government institutions.
Infrastructure in ITEZHI-TEZHI CENTRAL (001)
Security: Police Posts and Stations
The proposed constituency has only one police station which has 2 cells to house both men and women. These cells have a combined capacity of 12 inmates, but are forced to accommodate as much as 25 inmates due to inadequate infrastructure. Fourteen police officers (all male) are operating at the police station, out of an optimum number of 30. There are 16 staff houses, which are adequate for the number of officers currently at the station.
Urban Water Supply infrastructure
The main source of water supply for Itezhi-Tezhi Central (001) is surface water pumped from the Itezhi-tezhi lake. ZESCO does the treatment, pumping and distribution to the uphill community. Lukanga Water and Sewerage Company do the distribution of water to all areas downhill.
Roads and Transport
Itezhi-Tezhi Central (001) proposed constituency is accessed by three major roads, namely
Itezhi tezhi – Mongu road junction (115 km) D769 ITT. This road also has tourist attractions such as the game park
Itezhi tezhi – Dundumwezi to Kalomo (199 km)
Itezhi tezhi – Namwala (65 km). There is a pontoon which crosses
the Kafue river along this road
Other Roads
ITT – Ikonkaile – tourism and fishing
Kaanzwa – Masasabi, leads to farming blocks and schools
Kasankwa – farming
Kayawe – Nkobo, leads to farming blocks
In the urban part of Itezhi-Tezhi Central (001) are 18 township roads totaling about 25 km.
Of these roads, only one is tarred and the remainders are gravel.

TOTAL 25.15 KM
Power and Communication
The Itezhi-Tezhi Central (001) has a 120 megawatt hydro power station. Telephone communication is available in the constituency. This service is provided by Zamtel. Other means of communication within the constituency is by VHF and HF radios. HF radios are found at ZESCO offices, MACO, OOP and ZAWA. ZESCO and MOH have VHF radios for short distance usage.
Postal Services
The quality of services being provided by Postal services is quite good and efficient. Every Sunday, Mail is delivered to Mumbwa while mail from Mumbwa is brought to Itezhi Tezhi every Monday. For more services like Telegraph, the Postal service is relying on ZAMTEL to improve their services. The Postal Service intends to introduce water transport services between Itezhi Tezhi and Namwala.
Housing
Housing is a critical issue in the district due to the increasing numbers of people coming to the constituency. The constituency has a serious housing deficit. Currently, the majority of government workers are accommodated by ZESCO. It has a total of 214 housing units made up of 23 high cost, 69 medium cost and 122 low cost units. A number of private individuals have put up houses in Masemu, Lilanda and other surrounding areas. Shelter Zambia has also facilitated the construction of medium cost house in the district. The Council has also embarked on a project to build institutional houses. So far the Council has 8 medium cost housing units.

Availability of Power
Schools in the constituency have limited access to power, with only 25 percent having access to power. Out of this figure, 15 percent are connected to the ZESCO power supply. Seventyfive (75) percent do not have access to any form of power. This could be attributed to the fact that most of them are located more than 32 km away from the power supply mains.
