NCD City Hall

City hall commits to making sports inclusive

On Sunday 30th April, NCD Governor Powes Parkop when presenting the cheque said the City Hall is committed to supporting all sporting codes to ensure sports become a platform for development, gender equality, creating champions and instilling good values.

The financial support was to sponsor a one-month soccer pre-season hosted and managed by the Port Moresby Soccer Association (PMSA). The cheque was presented when the pre-season was entering its final rounds of the season.

City Hall closed

The city's municipal government headquarters will be shut whole day today and most likely tomorrow as well. This is according to deputy city manager for corporate affairs, Pinio Kalus.

Kalus confirmed there was no major damage, but for the safety of the staff, everyone has been asked to vacate the building and call off work today.

He also confirmed the Fire Department were on scene and carried out inspections.

NCDC's internal technicians suspect the electricity voltage exceeded the required voltage. This they believe was caused by the recent blackouts.
