By NATION REPORTER

O

NLY 14 students out of 179 cleared in full in the recently held 2020 Zambia Institute of Advanced Legal Education (ZIALE) examinations.

University of Zambia (UNZA) Vice Chancellor, Luke Mumba expressed

happiness that 13 were from UNZA School of Law, translating to 93 percent of the successful candidates being UNZA trained.

According to a statement issued by UNZA acting Head – Communication and Marketing, Marjorie Nkamba, 179 candidates sat for the ZIALE examination but that only 14 cleared them in full.

“We are reliably informed that 179 candidates sat for this examination and only 14 cleared them in full. Of these, 13 were UNZA School of Law graduates. This comes as no surprise because, UNZA has been dominating the ZIALE examinations since 1970,” the statement read.

MAN FINED K60, 000 FOR ASSISTING A FOREIGNER OBTAIN NRC

By NATION REPORTER

A MAN in Kabwe has been convicted and sentenced to pay a fine of K60, 000 or in default two years simple imprisonment for assisting a Tanzanian who was in Zambia to illegally obtain a National Registration Card (NRC) and for giving false information to a Public Officer.

Whatson Shaba of Chief Chimuka’s Chiefdom was arrested by the Department of Immigration at Mwantaya Primary School in Chisamba on October 13, 2020 after he tried to help a Tanzanian to obtain an NRC during the ongoing mobile registration

exercise.

Immigration public relations officer, Namati Nshinka said Shaba was subsequently handed to the Kabwe Regional Immigration Office on October 21st, 2020, where he was charged for the two counts.

Mr Nshinka said in the second count of giving false information to a Public Officer, Shaba was sentenced to pay a fine of K450 or in default six months simple imprisonment.

He said the sentences were to run concurrently.

Mr Nshinka said the Tanzanian would appear in court today for facts and sentencing.

‘Govt to help manufacturers’ PRESIDENT Edgar Lungu says Government will help Zambian manufacturing companies to remain profitable.

President Lungu said those who are in the manufacturing and value addition sector should be free to approach Government and suggest how best they could be helped.

The Head of State however expressed sadness that most entrepreneurs were unable to access funding due to lack of information.

He said the Ministry of Commerce has funds to help people that were involved in manufacturing and value addition.

He said those involved in business should gather the courage to approach the ministry of Commerce and find out what programmes are there for them.

He said this when some companies from Luapula Province showcased their products at State House yesterday.

ZAMBIANS should ensure that they guard against the anticipated second wave of the corona virus infections which has potential to disrupt many aspects of the economy, Health Minister Chitalu Chilufya has said.

Dr Chilufya also said Zambia risks having a spike in the number of Covid-19 cases if people do not adhere to stipulated public health guidelines.

Speaking during the routine update on Covid-19 in Lusaka yesterday, Dr Chilufya said only one patient is admitted at Levy Mwanawasa Covid-19 isolation centre and six were admitted in Solwezi.

President Lungu Mansa Sugar, Jembara and Kawambwa Tea. And President Lungu has encouraged Zambians to change their mindset if they are to succeed in entrepreneurship ventures.

And speaking earlier, Luapula Province Minister Nickson Chilangwa thanked President Lungu for spear heading development in the province.

He said following the Expo in 2017 a number of companies have come on board and have started operating in the region. – ZNBC. Dr Chilufya said the country had continued to see a downward trend in the number of infections with 63 cases of Covid-19 recorded in the last 24 hours out of 5, 771 tests that were conducted and no death has been recorded.

He said 37 Covid-19 cases were identified during routine screening, one in Chingola, 14 in Kitwe, six in Lusaka and 16 in Ndola, while 26 were also detected during health facility screening - two in Chingola, one in Kabompo; five in Kitwe, five in Lusaka, six in Ndola and seven in Solwezi.”

Meanwhile, Zambia National Public Health Institute Director Victor Mukonka said the rising cases of Covid-19 globally should serve as a lesson to Zambia if the country was to sustain efforts put in place.

Professor Mukonka said, the health authorities have since tightened port health entry at airports and other entry points.

Bondholders will respond positively, says EAZ From page 1 EAZ national secretary, Mutisunge Zulu, banked the cautious optimism on the appointment of the Preya Sharma as International Monetary Fund (IMF) representative in Zambia as well as deferring of the country’s debt by the China Development Bank.

Last month, the IMF appointed Ms Sharma as Zambia’s resident representative taking over from Alfredo Baldini who was deployed back to the fund two years ago.

During the same month, Zambia reached a deal to defer debt repayments that were due in October, 2020 on a loan from the China Development Bank.

“This is coming off the back that within these two weeks we could see more Chinese banks coming to defer Zambia’s debt which is exactly what we have been pushing for, we are seeing pushing, and we are seeing signs of positivity.

“China Development Bank debt deferment is a positive sign, this is happening in the lifeline period, the optimism is that there could be other Chinese banks that will come through and it is slowly sending signals to the bondholders,” Mr Zulu when he appeared on the Anakazi Banking Online Conversations.

Mr Zulu noted that Zambia, from June this year, had stepped up its quest towards its fiscal fitness.

Zambia has US$3 billion of Eurobonds outstanding and owes US$2 billion to commercial banks, US$2 billion to the IMF and World Bank and another US$3 billion to China.

The bondholders who were supposed to vote on Zambia’s request last month postponed their meeting to November 13 after failing to reach quorums.

Mr Zulu said: “it might look like failing to reach quorum when it was actually in our favour because it extended the period. There is a lot happening between now and November 13.”

“I am cautiously optimistic that come the 13th of November, something good will come out. I do not know what it is exactly, but I know that between now and then, there is a lot happening.

“I look at the macroeconomics, I look at the trends, I look at the exchange rate, the question is how doyou know the Central Bank is buying dollars to prepare for that payments,” he said.

MUNALI LAND SCAM STOPPED From page 1

“The land issue has been settled and the land in question has been given back to government which is Munali Secondary School and so far no one has complained, “he said.

Unknown people encroached on land belonging

to the Secondary school and built structures.

However early this year, government ordered the demolition of all structures built on land belonging to the school in Lusaka.

This followed investigations which had revealed that the structures were illegally built on land belonging to the school.

Local Government minister, Charles Banda had said then that the Ministry of Lands was tasked to investigate how the title deeds were issued.

Dr Banda told journalists that the land in question belonged to the Ministry of General Education and wondered how it was given out.

The matter was then taken

up by Lusaka Province Minister Bowman Lusambo who said the illegalities in Lusaka must end and warned that the demolitions would continue.

Mr Lusambo warned that the exercise was going to be extended to other schools whose land have been encroached.

Yali laughs at Sangwa

…We will petition your pay master’s nomination

By SILUMESI MALUMO SOME opposition leaders who will file in nomination ahead of 2021 elections will be challenged in court for alleged corruption activities, Young African Leaders Initiative (YALI) has said.

And YALI said even those opposition political party leaders fighting their jail sentence in court would be challenged.

YALI president Andrew Ntewewe warned that lawyer John Sangwa should not think that article 52 in the constitution of Zambia targeted President Edgar Lungu.

He indicated that every political leader was subjected to be challenged in court for various allegations leveled against them.

Mr Ntewewe told journalists yesterday, Mr Sangwa should be ready to defend his pay masters in court after filing in their nominations.

He was reacting to sentiments by Mr Sangwa that now that Bill 10 had fallen off, it was now time to challenge President Lungu’s third term race.

But Mr Ntewewe said what Mr Sangwa was saying was laughable because the Constitution Court had already ruled and nothing else would change.

He only reminded Mr Sangwa that it was him and his pay masters who would be disadvantaged come 2021 when they filed in nominations as they would spend time in court.

PROUDLY PRESENTED TO

Mr Ntewewe Mr Ntewewe indicated that some opposition leaders had been accused of being involved in corruption and this would be taken to court by all means.

“What third term is he talking about, we don’t know about this third term because the Constitutional Court made it clear. President Lungu has not been in power for 10 years.

This issue of third term only exists in his head and not reality. He is just playing to the political gallery,” he said.

And Mr Ntewewe proposed that the constitution amendment must be on hold for two to three decades.

He said the country already had a constitution which was working even when it had lacunas.

Mr Ntewewe indicated that the country was spending a lot money on constitutional amendment which can be channeled to other sectors of the economy.

EMULATE LUAPULA

THE Luapula Province Economic Expo of 2017 has continued to be an inspiration of how development could be enhanced when people are focused and work together.

The Luapula Expo was a trailblazer that saw other provinces organize similar economic growth boosting expositions to attract investors to their regions.

While other regions have been quiet since staging their expos, Luapula appears to be the only region showing that resolutions passed from their expo are being followed through.

Yesterday, State House played host to several companies from Luapula Province as they showcased their products.

Among the companies that presented products are Mansa Sugar, Jembara and Kawambwa Tea. Luapula Province Minister Nickson Chilangwa reported that following the Expo in 2017 a number of companies have come on board and have started operating in the region.

The leadership that has been exhibited by the provincial administration in Luapula is what the whole country needs to turn the country’s economy round.

The nation must see the results of the provincial expositions that followed in each province with the setting up of viable projects that are providing employment to the local populations.

Companies cannot claim that they lack support from the government when President Edgar Lungu declared that his administration will help Zambian manufacturing companies to remain profitable.

President Lungu said those who are in the manufacturing and value addition sector should be free to approach Government and suggest how best they could be helped.

We are surprised that companies are not aware of the various programmes available to them because they lack information.

If anything, it just shows that the entrepreneurs themselves do not do any research or engage with the various ministries to find out what support is available for them. While expressing sadness that most entrepreneurs were unable to access funding due to lack of information, President Lungu said those who are in the manufacturing and value addition sector should be free to approach Government and suggest how best they could be helped.

President Lungu said the Ministry of Commerce, Trade and Industry has funds to help people that were involved in manufacturing and value addition.

He said those involved in business should gather the courage to approach the ministry of Commerce and find out what programmes are there for them.

It is surprising that entrepreneurs want to be told by the President what support is available from the government when the ideal situation would be for them to keep the technocrats at the ministry on their toes.

The three companies that showcased their products at State House deserve all the support from the government for their resilience.

Mansa Sugar for example must be commended for producing sugar and ending the myth that sugar could only be produced at Nakambala in Mazabuka.

We agree with the President that Zambians must change their mindset if they are to succeed in entrepreneurship ventures.

It is the only way that the country can develop and become an exporter as opposed to being an importer of consumer goods.

The country’s foreign reserves will not improve until Zambians realise that value–addition is what will boost the economy and make life cheaper for all.

PURSUING JUSTICE AND EQUITY WITH INTERGRITY

Bill 10 failure has no effect on Lungu eligibility, minister explains From page 1 Mr Mundubile stated that the courts were petitioned over the eligibility of President Lungu and all the arguments that are being advanced by opposition political parties regarding the Head of State’s eligibility were advanced in the courts of law and the courts ruled in his favour.

Mr Lubinda said as far as the party and the legal fraternity were concerned, President Lungu was eligible to contest the 2021 elections.

“They can give all those threats, the one thing for sure is that come next year we are going to file in nomination for President Edgar Chagwa Lungu to contest as President of the Republic of Zambia and we shall campaign.

And by the way we shall campaign for Bill 10, we shall dissect Bill 10, we shall go to Zambians and tell them, we shall tell the chiefs of this country that the chiefdoms of this country are threatened because UPND MPS did not want to vote,” he said. Mr Lubinda indicated that the opposition would feel the heat of the Head of State come 2021 because he would

appear on the ballot paper.

The minister said nothing would stop President Lungu from contesting the 2021 general elections.

He said yesterday at a media briefing, “Come September 2021 we shall go back to all these issues under the tutorage of President Lungu.”

And Mr Lubinda said the Public Order Act would only be amended when the constitution would be amended.

Mr Lubinda who is also Kabwata Member of Parliament said now that the bill which sought to amend the act had been thrown away the Act would remain the way it was.

“When Mr Kampyongo presented the Public Order Act bill in Parliament what did the leader of opposition in Parliament do, he stood up and said Mr Speaker we can’t present the bill until we we finish Bill 10 which aims to amend the constitution.

Now that the bill did not pass, we will wait until the amendment of the constitution that is when the Public Order Act would be amended also,” he said.

KAFUE GORGE LOWER COMMISSIONING SET

By SILUMESI MALUMO

THE first unit at Kafue Gorge Lower will be commissioned at the end of this month, Zesco Corporate Affairs Manager John Kunda has said.

Dr Kunda said a small section of the project which was partially gutted did not in any way affect the commissioning of the first unit.

He said in an interview yesterday, the project was not affected by the fire and the commissioning of the 250 megawatts plant would be done come 2021.

Dr Kunda said the fire had only affected the dam wall and the paint around that wall, adding that the rest of the project remained intact and would be commissioned as scheduled.

“So in terms of commissioning the Kafue Gorge Lower first unit nothing has been affected because no equipment has been affected, and the dam wall has not been affected, the cables in the dam wall have not been affected; no turbines have been affected.

Dr Kunda was burnt because it’s highly flammable. So this area which was affected has been worked on and we are going to go ahead to commission the first unit of the project come this month end.

“Like we stated some time back about switching on the first unit it will be so and by month end a significant megawatts of power will be added to the national grid,” he said.

Dr Kunda also said that water would be filled in the dam in readiness for commissioning the first unit of the project.

Here for good

THE ongoing voters’ pre-registration is dragging because citizens are not well sensitised on the matter, the Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD) has said.

It says it was worrying that the online preregistration had captured less than 100, 000 in almost a month.

“The pre- registration exercise is coming to an end on Friday, November 6, 2020 but captured only about 75, 000 as of the end of October despite starting on September 21, 2020,” said MMD nationalsSecretary, Reverend Reuben Sambo.

Mr Sambo said the Online PreRegistration gives an indication of where the country was going with the actual voter registration because there had been no sensitisation on both online and physical pre-voter registration exercise.

He observed that there has been no excitement from the people for the exercise because a lot of them were not aware that they have to pre-register.

Mr Sambo said with the old voter registration cards having been declared void in the 2021 general elections, there was need for a vigorous sensitisation campaign so that citizens are well informed about the registration process.

“The online pre-voter registration provides a window that helps us to see what can easily happen, if you have not registered even up to a million, how are you going to register nine million voters in one month?” he wondered.

Mr Sambo said facts on the ground are that most people don’t know that they have to acquire new voter’s cards even though they have old ones, a sign that the required number of people might not be captured within one month.

ZIMBABWE MOVES TOWARDS STRICTER DEBT MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK

H

ARARE – The government has put in place a new debt management framework that will be used to evaluate its loan guarantees and on-lending in a transparent and objective process meant to guard against adverse impact of contingent liabilities on public finances.

The new Framework for Evaluating, Monitoring and Managing Guaranteed and On-lent Loans, comes as contingent liabilities such as called-up guarantees have contributed to the increase in Zimbabwe’s public debt in recent years.

According to the Macroeconomic and Financial Management Institute of Eastern and Southern Africa (MEFMI), as at end of 2019, about 12.6 percent of Zimbabwe’s external public debt was guaranteed and of this amount, 98 percent was in arrears arising from calledup guarantees and the materialisation of other contingent liabilities.

Government, as part of

financing for development, offers guarantees and provide on lending loans to credit worthy borrowers.

Under the guarantee arrangement, a borrower is able to obtain a loan from the lender on condition that Government provides a guarantee that, in the event of default, the Government will take on the responsibility of repaying the loan.

In the case of on lending, the Government through the Ministry of Finance and Economic Development (MoFED), receives a loan from a lender or raises finance via

a security issuance and then lends these funds to the borrower.

However, over the years, debt accumulation and guarantees were not being done by the book with Finance secretary George Guvamatanga, telling Parliament’s Public Accounts Committee (PAC) recently that there was need to establish the purpose and use of the debt accumulated or guaranteed by Government.

To manage the debt burden, MEFMI provided technical support in formulating the new Framework for Evaluating, Monitoring and

Managing Guaranteed and On-lent Loans (Framework).

The new framework, which was released by the Zimbabwe Public Debt Management Office, a department under Treasury, will assist in spelling out all the relevant stages that require efficient and effective evaluation, monitoring and managing of guaranteed and on-lent loans.

The Framework also sets out the overall policy, legal and institutional framework within which debt will be incurred, used and managed. It also provides an evaluation methodology that involves a credit risk assessment and scoring for determination of relevant fees.

The credit scoring assessment takes into consideration financial and non-financial aspects as well as project-specific assessment.

Furthermore, the timelines for guarantee applications and responses, guarantee fees and other charges, monitoring arrangements as well as reporting and disclosure of guarantees and on-lent loans are catered for in the framework.

AngloGold doubles dividend payout ratio as rally boosts cash JOHANNESBURG - AngloGold Ashanti will double its dividend payout ratio after gold prices surged this year and the company’s borrowings fell to the lowest in nearly a decade.

AngloGold will now return 20 percent of free-cash flow before growth capital to shareholders, up from 10 percent, the world’s third-largest gold producer said in a statement yesterday. The payout frequency has also been doubled to twice a year.

AngloGold’s free-cash flow in the three-months through September rose nearly fourfold to $339 million after gold prices jumped and capital spending declined. Adjusted net debt fell 47 percent from a year earlier to the lowest level since 2011.

AngloGold, which operates in Africa, Australia and the Americas, has spent the past few years seeking to exit smaller and higher-cost assets to focus on its most-profitable mines.

The company is searching for a new chief executive officer after Kelvin Dushnisky announced his departure in July.

“Doubling our dividend payout ratio demonstrates confidence in our ability to both improve direct returns to shareholders and to self-fund our growth projects and sustaining capital requirements,” interim CEO Christine Ramon said in a statement.

AngloGold maintained its most recent production forecast of between 3.03 million ounces and 3.10 million ounces this year. – BLOOMBERG NEWS.

LONDON - The pound declined to the weakest level in a month on concern a lockdown across England would deal a painful blow to an economy already reeling from similar measures earlier this year.

Sterling fell as much as 0.7 percent to $1.2855, the lowest since October 7, after Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Saturday announced the month-long restrictions amid concern that the coronavirus is spreading rapidly and the National Health Service risks being overwhelmed.

"Another lockdown is the worst-case scenario for the U.K. economy and the pound," said Lee Hardman, a foreign-exchange strategist at MUFG Bank. "It will increase pressure on the Bank of England (BOE) to deliver even more aggressive stimulus at this week's policy meeting."

Bloomberg Economics said the second lockdown will mean the economy contracts in the fourth quarter and that the BOE will increase its asset

purchase target this week by possibly more than the 100 billion pounds ($129 billion) previously forecast.

The central bank will decide on policy on 5 November, the same day the latest lockdown measures come into effect.

The shutdown is competing with a range of factors likely to influence the pound this week, from optimism about a breakthrough on Brexit trade negotiations with the European Union to the U.S. election on Tuesday.

Uncertainty around the vote has driven the cost of hedging the pound over one week to its highest since April.

"I would expect that if it wasn't for hopes of a Brexit trade agreement that the pound would be a lot lower," said Jane Foley, head of foreign-exchange strategy at Rabobank, adding that a stronger U.S. dollar is exaggerating the latest move in the pound. – BLOOMBERG NEWS

Mali's auditor general recommends review of mining contracts

BAMAKO Mali’s transitional government aims to review mining conventions signed with companies by the previous administrations, interim President Bah N’daw, has said following recommendations from the country’s auditor general.

Mali is one of Africa's largest gold producers.

Companies operating in the country include Barrick Gold Corp and AngloGold Ashanti and Resolute Mining.

“The conventions establishing mining companies include clauses which do not always guarantee the protection of the interests of the state,” Auditor General Samba Alhamdou Baby said after handing his report to the interim president.

“In particular the nondistribution of dividends, the non-payment of certain taxes, to which is added the existence of unjustified loans, all of which deprive the State of financial resources,” he said.

He added that a review of the conventions would better protect the interests of the state while respecting incentives for mining companies.

Parliament approved a new code in April that eliminates mining companies’ value added tax exemptions during production and shortens the period during which they are protected from fiscal changes to 20 years.

N’daw said the recommendations were instructions to the interim administration, which he said would make the mining sector a priority during its 18-month term.

“I will assure you that everything will be done so that the state assumes its responsibilities and receives from the mining sector what is due to it,” N’daw said.

Mali’s transitional government was appointed last month following the August 18 military coup that ousted the government of President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita. – REUTERS.

KLM’s multi-billion euro bailout on hold as unions refuse pay cut plan THE HAGUE - The Dutch government has suspended plans to help beleaguered national carrier KLM with a multi-billion-euro bailout package after unions declined to sign a deal involving a five-year paycut plan.

The move puts the future of the Dutch arm of Air France-KLM into

jeopardy, with KLM saying it would not remain afloat without a massive government infusion to save the world's oldest airline, now hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic.

"The planned state aid is not going through. It's disappointing but that's the case," Finance Minister Wopke Hoekstra told reporters after talks

with KLM. "It's really important now that everybody take their responsibility and realise that KLM is in an existential crisis," the minister said.

The Dutch cabinet's decision follows a day of intensive talks between KLM and its unions to try and reach accord over the bailout deal, which

Hoekstra said would only go through if the airline adhered to a number of tough cost-cutting measures.

The minister gave KLM and unions representing pilots, cabin and ground crew until 12:00 hours on Saturday to sign the agreement to unlock the second tranche of the 3.4 billion euro injection.

While talks are still ongoing with several unions, the Dutch pilots' union VNV have refused to sign what they termed a "last minute" change to conditions for the deal.

The bitter feud centres around a clause in the agreement which asks the troubled airline's staff to take salary cuts for the next five years. – AFP.

‘Finished politicians crawl out of their holes’

SOUTHERN PROVINCE ISSUANCE OF DOUBLE NRCS SHOCKING Dear Editor,

W

E note with dismay the revelation by acting Police spokesperson Dan Mwale with regard to the duplication of registration and acquisition of National Registration Cards (NRCs) in Southern Province. This may be a calculated move to give an unfair advantage to the political stakeholders that are at the centre of this conspiracy.

We have observed with disbelief with regard to this incident that a tenderly aged juvenile is of a voting age and flies within the universal franchise and adult suffrage therefore eligible to participate in any election. It is therefore possible that political reasons maybe the motivation to increasing the quantity of identity documents.

On one hand, we wonder how a minor can conceive such criminal acts without the knowledge and participation of the adults? In the same breath, did the minor lack the counsel from the adults with regard to risk associated with duplication of registration?

This ostensibly reveals that the adults probably with

preconceived motives endorsed the act. Although this may be politically attractive, it had more security consequences in the long term run.

Realistically speaking, the act can only take place with the collective effort of stakeholders such as parents and possibly the community where the juvenile lives. We feel that this plot is expertly, secretly and ruthlessly undertaken and difficult to leave evidence behind.

We also wish to give credit to the alert officers from the Department of National

Registration, Passport and Citizenship for exposing this well calculated fraud in the NRC issuance process. This is the wake up call to all stakeholders to be on the lookout for criminally minded individuals from hijacking the process.

The underhand method which a known opposition political party may have been entrapped with the view to increasing the fortunes of sealing the bid to acquiring state power.

This collates with their constant resistance to the

ongoing voter register cleansing process. This gives a discerning mind that there are well founded suspicion on the integrity of the number of votes the named opposition party secured in a low densely populated region.

We can only urge the police to tighten all loopholes and ensure that a strong message is sent to would be offenders that not all days are Sundays and crime does not pay.

MARVIN CHANDA MBERI, Youth Rights Activist,

Dear Editor, WHEN Bob Sichinga also known as “Ba Shinono” and William “Tekere” Banda team up to exhibit ignorance I can’t help but put them right in their space, since they believe they can bully me because I am a woman.

As for William Banda, l will not dignify his comments by commenting over someone whose only political success is unleashing violence.

Banda places himself as a political commodity to buy so he can vuvuzela.

My dear Bob is better off avoiding to be on a war path with me.

The last time he mentioned my name was when he accused me of faking Covid-19, again a bad political move, but we all got to know him as “Ba Shinono.”

He can’t even get his facts right about the MMD. May I remind him that President Michael Sata appointed 10 MMD MPs as deputy Ministers and recruited more to the party.

And let it be known that President Sata and I met at State House when he was President and we had a scheduled follow up meeting except he fell ill and went to Israel.

I refuse to share our detailed conversation but he clearly was a far better politician than many claiming to him or know Zambian politics.

He refused to make or adopt other people’s enemies as his enemies too.

And another fabricated matter doing rounds about an alleged party at my house!

I am shocked at the UPND heightened desperation.

They have resorted to creating and posting fake stories on the Zambian Watchdog including a fake party at my house.

Let it be known that there is no wind of change in Zambia.

The earlier they accept this, the better.

On urging Easterners to copy the voting pattern that is now prevalent in Southern Province, this is my view.

I am not apologising for telling Easterners to emulate their relatives, “a bale batu” the Southerners, and vote in numbers like Dundumwezi where in 2016 there were 40, 000 votes for HH and zero votes for ECL. I will not apologies for telling Easterners that while in the past they supported Chiluba from Luapula, Levy Mwanawasa a Lamba, and even saving PF in 2015 with Edgar Lungu.

Now they too must support their son, since in the past they have supported all Zambians.

I urged them not to betray the support that many Zambians, Bembas, Lozis, Lambas, Kaondes, Lundas, Lambas and many other tribes are giving President Lungu.

And it’s a common fact that UPND which has majority Tongas as followers and has never supported the Patriotic Front under Mr Sata or President Lungu.

I will not apologise for telling my headmen that how can they expect cash transfer when they are not vulnerable and wondering if they want to cheat the system.

I also went further to advise them that cash transfer, “Ndalama Za Mwasauka” is nothing to be proud of and so they must do better by investing in agriculture and education of their children.

But of course it’s more sensational to misrepresent facts and play recording out of context.

The Sichingas and William Bandas must accept they have been failed Lusaka politicians with no understanding of the nuances and context of my meetings.

And I am reaching out to Chand Na Kay for a great performance at Woodlands Stadium in Lusaka.

I can’t wait to meet you guys.

DORA SILIYA M.P. Minister of Communication & Broadcasting.

Opposition lose grip on Chibombo?

By NOEL IYOMBWA

C Kawambwa set for road rehabilitations KAWAMBWA is earmarked to benefit from the 200 million united states dollars World Bank Loan for the rehabilitation and maintenance of selected rural roads across the country under the Improved Rural Connectivity Project (IRCP).

The district is among six out of the 12 districts in Luapula Province that are expected to benefit the World Bank Loan.

IRCP National Coordinator, Mwata Sekeseke said four roads with a stretch of about 67 kilometres in Kawambwa district have been approved covering Kawambwa Central and Pambashe constituencies.

Mr Sekeseke disclosed the development during the stakeholders’ sensitisation meeting which was held over the weekend.

He said the project has two components with the first being the actual works of rehabilitation and maintenance of roads and the second is meant for institutional capacity building for the Council.

The project is aimed at improving feeder roads and will also be implemented in Chipili, Mwense, Mwansabombwe, Chifunabuli and Samfya of Luapula province.

The project will be undertaken for the period of five years of which two years is for rehabilitation and three years will be for maintenance.

Mr Sekeseke said the project will support structures of economic value such as agricultural shades, water dams, markets for agricultural produce and communication tower to be determined by communities based on felt priority needs.

“The primary objective of the project is to reduce poverty through easy accessibility to road network that will translate into improved agricultural productivity in rural areas,” he noted.

And Kawambwa District Commissioner, James Kalumba said once the feeder road connectivity is improved, agriculture production and trade within the beneficiary communities will increase and result in poverty reduction.

Mr Kalumba said the IRCP Project will also help the district to attract investment around the Luena Farming Block.

President Edgar Lungu launched the extension of the IRCP in July 2020 in Mkushi Central Province to cater for Luapula province. - ZANIS.

HIBOMBO is no longer an opposition stronghold Patriotic Front Chibombo vice district chairperson Remmy Mukosa has said.

Speaking in a telephone interview Mr Mukosa said that the PF is on the ground and that people are happy with the development that President Edgar Lungu is delivering in all corners of the country hence the confidence in the party.

He said that come 2021 general elections the Patriot-

ic Front party will turn tables around.

He noted that the PF government has embarked on numerous infrastructure and economic development making it the party of choice in next year’s general election.

Mr Mukosa said the some opposition members of parliament have failed to bring meaningful development to Chibombo district and Central province despite being in parliament.

He called on PF members in the district to remain united ahead of the 2021 elections so that the party scoops the majority seats in the province and

district respectively.

And District chairlady Edah Chikusu said the district has been lagging behind because people have been voting for the opposition but that now they have realized and opened their eyes.

Mrs. Chikusu observed that the two constituencies being in a rural set up it was easy for the opposition to cheat them but now that they have realised that they do not have development, things have changed.

She disclosed that the party leadership recently launched the mobilization team which she said is so far doing well

with the grassroots.

“Being the district chairlady I can confirm that people especially women have realized that the two constituencies have been lagging behind in terms of development now they are saying that enough is enough.

“We are on the ground and come 2021 PF is going to produce two members of parliament,“ she said.

The district consists of two constituencies Keembe and Katuba constituencies currently held by the United Party for National Developments Princess Kasuni and Aubrey Kapalasa respectively.

UBA intent on promoting reading culture UBA operated.

“We have identified that the culture of reading is dwindling, we want to encourage you to read, it is important to read because books contain a lot of information.

By BUUMBA CHIMBULU IN an effort to rekindle the dwindling reading culture among African youths, the United Bank Africa (UBA) Zambia has contributed 200 African literature books valued at K45, 000 to Big Dreams School in Lusaka.

This is under the UBA foundation Read Africa programme which is aimed at rekindling the dwindling reading culture among African youths.

UBA’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) arm has developed an initiative known as Read Africa.

Through the programme, the foundation donates literature authored by African writers to primary and secondary schools across the continent UBA Zambia Board, Tukiya Kankasa-Mabula, said UBA was proud of being a local bank that put the communities and their needs first.

Dr Kankasa-Mabula said this was part of the continued efforts to uplift the lives of the communities where

“We believe you are the future and needs to be armed with tools to take our country to a higher level, you should have hope in yourselves,” Kingston Mutandwa, thanked UBA for complementing Government’s efforts in providing learning materials to the pu-

pils.

Mr Mutandwa said providing learning materials had remained a challenge for major schools in the country.

“These are rare opportunities where an organisation donates materials worth this amount and bring to a school.

“To the pupils, make use of what has been provided to the UBA, some schools have no such materials. Feel free to request for these materials and read and broaden your knowledge,” he said.

NAMBOARD RESIDENTS’ PLEA GETS STATE ATTENTION

Govt acts to protect water bodies

By ROGERS KALERO GOVERNMENT will come up with a Statutory Instrument (SI) to safeguard water bodies and ensure that perpetrators of illegal activities are dealt with, Water Development and Environment Protection Minister Jonas Chanda has said.

Dr Chanda said Government was planning to come up with the SI to protect water bodies following rampant deforestation and illegal sand mining near rivers and streams in the country.

He said this in Lufwanyama during the tour of Katembula dam which was set to provide piped water to the people in the district.

The Minister urged District Commissioner, Dorothy Chimpimpi, to ensure that the dam was safeguarded from any form of illegal activities.

"We are here at katembula dam because we want to see the potential of the dam to supply water to the entire district when Nkana Water and Sanitation Company starts to supply water to the area. This is a nice water body which does not dry up even in dry season “As Government, we

AMBOARD residents in Ndeke Township in Ndola have been assured that their plea for Government to offer them the houses as sitting tenants will be addressed.

The Namboard section of Ndeke Township is in Bwana Mkubwa Constituency where

area Member of Parliament (MP), Jonas Chanda, assured the residents that the matter would be presented to President Edgar Lungu.

Dr Chanda said he would engage Works and Supply Minister, Silvia Chalikosa, to facilitate a procedure on how the matter would progress.

"The Patriotic Front Government is a pro-poor Government with President

Lungu being a listening father. We sympathise with the residents and we call on them to remain patient and peaceful as we address the matter," he said.

Recently, Kafubu Water Supply and Sanitation Company embarked on sewer line replacement at the Namboard houses.

The sewer lines collapsed in 1987, rendering the

flushable toilets dysfunctional and forcing residents to dig shallow pit latrines which had been a health and environmental hazard.

Meanwhile, Dr Chanda assured the 200 families in Ndola's Overspill area, who are embroiled in land ownership dispute that he would engage with relevant authorities to conclusively deal with the matter.

are planning to come up with a statutory instrument to safeguard and protect water bodies. This statutory instrument will ensure that those engaged in illegal activities near water bodies are punished," Dr Chanda said.

Dr Chanda said Government was determined to improve water supply in various communities while ensuring that water bodies were protected.

He said he was disappointed that in areas like Mkushi, some rivers and streams were almost drying up because of rampant deforestation and illegal sand mining.

And Nkana Water managing director, Diana Makwaba, said the company would carry out a feasibility study of connecting water supply to lufwanyama district Ms Makwaba said, with the help and support of the local people, her company would try its best to connect the district to piped water "I can't say much now because we need to do a feasibility study to see how we will carry out this project.

As we start doing our feasibility study, we would like maximum cooperation from the local people," Ms Makwaba said.

HE ruling PF leadership in Southern Province is shocked that the opposition UPND has made a huge celebration out of the collapsed Bill 10.

PF Provincial Information and Publicity Secretary, Trymore Mweenda, charged that the behaviour of the UPND Members of Parliament (MPs) was counterproductive.

This is contained in a statement issued in Livingstone yesterday.

"We are shocked because Bill 10 was not a PF Bill as UPND wants to portray the matter, but a Bill for the Zambian people, which PF supported because of the many good and progressive clauses that were contained in the Bill," he said.

Mr Mweenda said that his party took the approach of genuine dialogue on the Bill while the UPND took a more simplistic approach of walking out each time the Bill came up for debate in parliament.

He said the Bill had been thrown away like a baby together with the bath water all because of narrow partisan interest.

"We are not surprised because that is what UPND stands for, our memories are still fresh of how the UPND vehemently opposed and demonized the referendum on the bill of rights not too long ago, which ended up being rejected.

Pupil commits suicide over K9, 000

By JACKSON MAPAPAYI A 20-year-old grade 11 boy of Mwinilunga district has committing suicide, North-western province Commissioner of police Elias Chushi has confirmed.

The boy of Kabanda Secondary School died on Saturday around 15:00 hours after taking pesticide called, Roach, a weed killer.

Mr Chushi identified the deceased as Josphat Ntambu of Kabanda compound.

He explained that on Friday, the boy went home with a bottle of pesticide but that no one suspected his intention to commit suicide.

"However, information filtering through the neighbourhood after his demise is that, while performing part-time job at MTN/ Airtel Booth in town, he had a shortage of money amounting K9,000," Mr Chushi said.

He said police visited the scene and found yellowish stuff oozing from the mouth and nose adding that the body has since been deposited in Mwinilunga District Hospital awaiting burial.

Government basic necessities and provision of life like water, education and health among

others," Mr Mweenda said.

He said that in rejecting Bill 10, the UPND did not want to see youths, the disabled and women take up positions in Parliament through the proportional representation.

Mr Mweenda said had it been supported, the Bill could have also addressed the costly by-elections every time there was death, resignation or defection of a Member of Parliament, Mayor, Council Chairperson or Councillor.

"The UPND are today celebrating, we can only hope that they will also be celebrating come next year because as the PF will go to the Zambian people and explain to them what they have been denied by this narrow self-serving position taken by the UPND not to support Bill 10.

"We can safely say the battle lines have been drawn and its game on, there are bigger battles ahead," he said.

Mr Mweenda said that President Edgar Lungu deserves another term and the party has every confidence next year’s elections will be a walk in the park for him because his works across the country will speak for him and the PF.

Promote good morals, musicians urged

By JACKSON MAPAPAYI MUSICIANS should compose songs that will teach the public good morals and values acceptable in Zambia, Kalumbila District Commissioner Robinson Kalota has said.

Meanwhile, Mr Kalota has challenged parents to take keen interest in knowing the type of music their children listen to because music was an important role in shaping one’s thoughts and behaviour.

The DC was speaking at the launch of the Umulonga Album released by the King David Vessels of Praise Team of the United Church of Zambia (UCZ) Trinity Congregation-Solwezi.

Mr Kalota said it was imperative that musicians produced music that promoted good morals and values in society to help shape public perception appropriately.

He said it was saddening to see a wide range of songs on the market that were not adding any value

Mr Kalota to society.

"So, I am challenging you especially the Gospel musicians to take up the mantle and produce music that will build the nation," he said.

He also advised artists to ensure that they protected their music from being pirated in order to fully benefit from their talent.

Mr Kalota said most musicians, film, drama and theatre artistes had suffered a setback in their artistic business due to piracy.

"And this resulted in

both the artistes and Government losing huge sums of money because of piracy," he said.

He reaffirmed Government’s commitment to supporting the music industry through various empowerment programmes.

Mr Kalota said that several artists were yet to benefit from the K30 million presidential youth empowerment fund, targeting artistes across the country.

He encouraged King David Vessels of Praise and other musicians to ensure that they registered their music with ZAMCORPS to avoid other people claiming ownership of their artistic work.

And speaking earlier, King David Praise Team patron, Lewis Mavuka, thanked Mr Kalota for accepting the invitation to grace the launch of the Umulonga album.

Mr Mavuka said that the praise team has 65 membership whose desire is to continue spreading the word of God through praise and worship.

‘Community schools need maximum support’

By ANDREW MUKOMA COMMUNITY Schools are important institutions which require maximum support from stakeholders because they offer education to the less privileged children, an expert has advised.

Manuu-mbwanu Community School proprietor, Reverend Smoke Chewe, appealed to Government and other stakeholders to support community schools with financial, teaching and learning resources.

He said his institution in Livingstone's Libuyu Township has particularly started a classroom expansion project which required assistance from well-wishers including Government.

Rev Chewe called for assistance for his institution to complete a classroom block which the school was constructing in order to accommodate learners.

He also called for assistance school learning materials to augment Government’s efforts in providing effective and

equality education.

Rev Chewe made the appeal when PF Livingstone parliamentary aspirant Ikuka Muleta handed over K 2,000 which he pledged last week during the school initiated children's parliament demonstration.

He said being a community school, major challenges facing the school are finances to complete the project, payment of school fees and the supply of textbooks, exercise books and other learning materials.

He said currently, the school has a total of 721 learners with about 10 teachers who are not on Government payroll.

Rev Chewe said for a very long time now, the school had been making several appeals to wellwishers but there had been very little support.

He thanked Mr Muleta for fulfilling his pledge unlike others who had been making promises but which they did not fulfil.

Mr Muleta assured the school authorities of his support.

PRE-EMPTIVE ARREST

…Tanzania police arrest opposition party leader ahead of protests

D

AR ER SALAAM - Tanzanian police arrested the leader of the main opposition party Chadema, according to Tundu Lissu, the party’s candidate in last week’s disputed presidential election.

The opposition has demanded a repeat vote citing widespread irregularities and called for protests against the outcome, which returned President John Magufuli to office with 84 percent of the vote.

Those arrested with Freeman Mbowe include a former member of parliament Godbless Lema, the former mayor of Dar es Salaam, Isaya Mwita, and the former mayor of Ubungo municipality, Boniface Jacob.

“I got a message around midnight that they had been taken in,” Lissu said yesterday.

Mwananchi, a privately owned daily that publishes in Swahili, quoted Dar es Salaam’s regional police commander Lazaro Mambosasa as saying they detained Mbowe and other opposition leaders.

Freeman Mbowe

Lissu previously said he will not accept the eventual election results.

The vote “marked the most significant backsliding in Tanzania’s democratic credentials,” Tanzania Elections Watch, a group of regional experts said in an assessment released on Friday. It noted a heavy deployment of military and police whose conduct created a “climate of fear”.

The United States has said it was concerned about reports showing “systematic interference in the democratic process,” while the United Kingdom said it was “troubled by the reports of violence and heavy-handed policing in the elections.”

In Ivory Coast, the ruling party has warned opposition leaders against any attempt to destabilise the country after they rejected Saturday's election in which President Alassane Ouattara stood for a controversial third term.

The opposition, which boycotted the poll, has called for mass protests to block what they describe as an electoral coup.

Ouattara has taken a commanding early lead, winning 99 percent of the vote in some ruling party strongholds. Ouattara announced he was running again after his party's chosen successor died suddenly in July.

– ALJAZEERA/BBC.

Hunbled CSS Petauke FC not giving up

By MICHAEL MIYOBA

PREMIER Futsal League outfit CSS Petauke says it will not give up despite having failed to win a game after eight rounds of fixtures played since the PFL kicked off in September.

Speaking in an interview after a humiliating 11-0 defeat to defending champions Lusaka Automotive on Friday team head coach Soko Richard said CSS Petauke will fight on until the last game to survive and relegation.

President Lungu “Guidelines for various sports disciplines which have been categorised as non-contact, semicontact and full contact sport and, safeguards as outlined in the health guidelines for football at premier and national division one leagues.”

will inspect stadiums to ensure that they are safe for the resumption of football.

Lungu had earlier implemented a ban on all sports activities in the country to halt the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic which has claimed the lives of 18 people in Zambia.

Meanwhile, Sports Minister Emmanuel Mulenga has hailed Speaking during yesterday’s President Lungu for lifting the Presidential address at State ban on contact sports.

would make some changes as the second round of the league approaches to strengthen his side which has recorded eight consecutive defeats.

“The competition is very tough for us but we are not giving up, we are still fighting the battle. We are going to make some changes to strengthen the team, I’m sure we will get up again,” Soko said.

Meanwhile, the win over CSS Petauke maintained Lusaka Automotive’s three points lead at the summit of the 10team PFL table.

Automotive moved to 24 points, three points ahead of second-placed Kabwe K-line who thumped Livingstone Pirates 6-4.

In other PFL fixtures played over the weekend, Chipata Boys beat Kafue Saints 6-5 to move to 12-points, on par with Kitwe Bullets who were stunned 2-1 by DS Isoka in a local derby.

Monze George continued to sparkle and moved to 12 points as well after beating Siavonga Beetles who were relegated to seventh place.

is to watch their teams from the stadia. Very soon Zambia will face Botswana in a crucial AFCON qualifier and many Chipolopolo fans will want to support the boys but we have to trust our government.

“The Minister of Sports has indicated that fans will be allowed back at stadia very soon.

I’m sure they are still observing the situation. If they did allow a musical concert at Woodlands Stadium, I see no reason why soccer fans shouldn’t be allowed to watch the game they love,” Makembo said.

Meanwhile, Makembo said it is unfortunate that the long awaited FIFA meeting involving FAZ and the aggrieved parties has twice failed to take place.

FAZ and the Aggrieved were scheduled to meet on October 30 in a FIFA chaired virtual meeting which flopped before it was postponed to next week.

Makembo said there is need for the warrying football administrators to swallow their pride and focus on developing the Zambian game instead of engaging in unending wrangles.

Makembo said Zambia may continue to struggle to qualify for crucial tournaments such as the AFCON if administrators persist on fighting one another.

Sikombe rejoins Dynamos

By MICHAEL MIYOBA

NAPSA Stars most valuable player during the 2019/2020 MTN/FAZ Super Division Collins Sikombe has ditched the CAF Confederations Cup envoys after signing a lucrative deal to rejoin Lusaka Dynamos.

NAPSA Stars Technical Director, Honour Janza, confirmed Sikombe’s move to Dynamos after the player handed in a transfer request to rejoin the team he left in 2018.

Janza hailed the player for helping the pensioners to qualify for the CAF Competition during a season he finished as the club’s top scorer.

“The club wants to express its profound gratitude to the player who has proved to be one of the best in Zambia and marked one of the brightest times in the history of the club.

“Apart from being our last season’s top scorer, Sikombe helped the team to reach where it is now including securing a place in the CAF Confederation Cup,” Janza said.

“In as much as we would have loved to still have the player around, his will always come first and we respect what he wants. We wish him all the best as he starts his new journey with Lusaka Dynamos,” he added.

The move comes a few days after the FIFA disciplinary committee lifted the transfer ban imposed on Lusaka Dynamos on November 7 over Mohammed Muntari Tagoe’s unpaid allowances.

Dynamos have been busy since the ban was lifted and have also signed Chipolopolo striker Emmanuel Chabula who signed a two-year deal with the club.

"I have signed a two-year deal with Lusaka Dynamos because they reached my demand, they agreed to my conditions and I just thought of changing the environment, experiencing the new challenge," said Chabula after leaving NkZESCO Limited wishes t wazi FC for Dynamos.
