‘ANGLO AMERICA MUST PAY FOR LEAD POISONING’

DESPERATE LIES

WHAT would Zambia gain from promoting instability in Rwanda? Absolutely nothing.

Yet, this is what desperate individuals want Zambians and the international community to believe, that President Edgar Lungu is funding unrest in that country.

It is preposterous that President Lungu’s political opponents could sink so low as to want to poison the warm relations between Zambia and Rwanda.

Zambia has a huge population of refugees from Rwanda and Burundi who have sought shelter from the ethnic killings in their home country. Rwandese make a sizeable chunk of refugees from the Great Lakes region and it does not make sense that President Lungu would use some of them to create political instability in their home country.

It is not surprising therefore that even Rwandese refugees in Zambia are shocked that President Lungu’s local enemies want to drag him into Rwandese armed insurgency politics where he is not involved.

They have scoffed at suggestions by a Rwandese Major, Calliixte Nsabimana Sankara who claimed that President Lungu gave him US$150, 000 to launch attacks in that country.

Their differences with the government of Paul Kagame in Rwanda is something that is best left to themselves to deal with – peacefully.

It is quite clear that the accusations made against President Lungu of bankrolling insurgents in Rwanda is nothing but a plot to dent his international image. But this won’t work because his works speak for him.

Surely, how could someone who enjoys respect across the continent sink so low as to want to cause instability in another independent African country?

For once, we agree with Mr Chishimba Kambwili, the leader of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) who says allegations that President Lungu is financing a Rwandese organisation to launch attacks in that country are not only childish and irresponsible but can bring misunderstanding between the two countries.

Mr Kambwili, who once served as Minister of Foreign Affairs under late President Michael Sata advised politicians to learn to have boundaries and not politic to an extent of involving the President in fabricated stories in an effort to gain political mileage.

He said that even the amount of money mentioned in the story could not even be enough to match the allegations.

As we have alluded to earlier, President Lungu commands respect across Africa.

He has chaired the SADC Organ on Politics Defence and Security which is responsible for promoting peace and security in the SADC region. It is mandated to steer and provide Member states with direction regarding matters that threaten peace, security and stability in the region.

We therefore do not see how a person entrusted with such responsibility would want to go and cause civil strife in Rwanda, a country that all are praying for to find peace after the genocide it went through.

And quite rightly, State House has rubbished the claims, saying that the allegations were false and must be treated with the contempt they deserve.

In a statement, State House said, the President had never engaged in such activities and that Zambia and Rwanda continued to have cordial relationship.

Zambians should be aware that some people will do anything to get into State House, even cooking up such stories through their surrogates to try and destroy President Lungu’s character..

They must be on their guard lest they are led astray.

Dr Matibini told the House that a walk-out is a conventional means through which a Member or Members can express their displeasure on a

that people were paid for them to access health facilities.

The NCP leader said it was irresponsible for Anglo American to leave people in serious danger without taking care of them.

"This is the more reason we talk about having responsible investors being key, investors that will look into the plight of the people, investors who will ensure that even after doing their businesses the welfare of the people must become cardinal.

This is the reason Zambian people should ignore some certain politicians that are stating that when they form government they’ll bring back Anglo American. Look at the situation people are facing.

"My call to the minister responsible for mines is to make

sure that the plight of the people that are being affected as a result of lead pollution are attended to," he said.

He said lives of people affected were important and Anglo American should pay.

Pastor Chanda said it was important that investors who come in the country must take in account the plight of the people. "Anglo America left this country unceremoniously, when people wanted them that is the time they exited. So we also demand for them to pay our people affected," Pastor Chanda.

He pointed out that although the practice of walkouts is common in most parliaments worldwide, it has however, adverse effects as it deprives the electorate of representation, during the subsistence of the walkout.

Dr Matibini explained that while it was conventional for MPs to walk out of the Chambers for any reasons as a way of protest, it has the tendency of denying the electorate their representation in the house.

“Let me hasten to point out from the outset, that

while it is conventional for Members to walk out of the Chamber for political or other reasons, this practice, nevertheless, has the unfortunate tendency of denying the electorate their representation in the House.”

“Therefore, Hon Members, I wish to reiterate that walk-outs, in themselves, do not amount to a breach of the Rules of the House or, indeed, parliamentary practice and procedure. Albeit, they deny the electorate of their representation in the House. “In view of this, the Hon Members of the UPND who walked out of the House were not out of order,” Dr Matibini said.

ZRA to review water allocation

By BUUMBA CHIMBULU in Siavonga

THE Zambezi River Authority (ZRA) is in the process of reviewing the water allocation levels for Zambia and Zimbabwe which will determine the pace at which Zesco can reduce load shedding hours.

The current dialogue, expected to be concluded next month, will guide ZRA to either increase, reduce or maintain the current water level allocation for both countries.

At the beginning of this year, ZRA allocated 22 billion cubic meters (BCM) of water to Zesco and Zimbabwe Power Company (ZPC), but later reviewed it to 23 BCM in April with each utility company accessing 11.5 BCM. The water levels at Lake Kariba as of Tuesday this week was at 481.22 meters with 40.97 percent of 26.55

BCM of live storage.

ZRA Director, Christopher Chisense, said results from the dialogue would be communicated as soon as the review was expected to be concluded next month.

Engineer Chisense said the dialogue was between Zesco, ZPC and ZRA. He was speaking yesterday in Siavonga during the tour of the Kariba North Bank Power Station by Change Mindset Zambia.

Zesco Public Relations Manager, Hazel Zulu, said loading shedding hours were expected to reduce to between four to eight hours if ZRA allocated more water to the power utility company.

Ms Zulu said: "load shedding hours are currently between eight and ten hours."

Meanwhile, Zesco Operations Manager, Cephas Museba, said from January to June, 9.15 BCM water allocation had already been utilised out of the 11.5 BCM for this year.

UPND putting Zambia at risk - PF

By NATION REPORTER THE sponsored hate, venom and falsehoods generated against President Edgar Lungu is part of the Opposition’s scheme to reduce Zambia to ashes and trigger regime change, the Patriotic Front has said.

PF media director, Sunday Chanda said the UPND’s desperation had reached alarming levels and were Zambia’s number one threat to national security.

Mr Chanda observed that UPND, after losing elections six times in a row to a democratic process in 2001, 2006, 2008, 2011, 2015 and 2016 was now ready to set Zambia ablaze just to form Government.

He said in a statement that there was no doubt that UPND had auctioned Zambia to the highest bidder and were desperate to sponsor falsehoods against Zambia in order to make the country ungovernable.

“The damage UPND and its financiers have occasioned on Zambia especially in international media is grave and it must be stopped. They are under pressure to deliver to their funders and one of the tick boxes is to create tension and make Zambia ungovernable,” said. Mr Chanda said the period between now and the next election would see UPND and its financiers sponsor falsehoods and propaganda against Government and President Lungu in particular.

“We ask Zambians, especially the Church to denounce UPND’s dangerous desperation because it’s a serious risk to national security,” he said.

Dr Mumba said Zambia and Rwanda have a good working relationship and therefore finds it disheartening for a few unscrupulous individuals working with the insurgents in Rwanda to try and drag President Lungu’s name into their mess.

THE Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) will today hold a meeting to analyse responses from stakeholders of the proposed nomination fees.

ECZ Public relations manager, Margaret Chimanse said the Commission had taken note of the positions taken by different political parties on the new proposed fees.

Ms Chimanse said in an interview that all the concerns raised by political parties under the Zambia Centre for Interparty Dialogue (ZCID) would be reviewed today to come up with a way forward.

"We have taken note and the Commission will sit to come up with a position on the matter," Ms Chimanse said.

She said the commission would release a comprehensive statement after analysing what political parties are saying.

Political parties under the ZCID have rejected the proposed nomination fees by the Electoral Commission of Zambia for 2021 general elections.

"The political parties unreservedly rejected the nomination fees announced by ECZ for the 2021 general elections," Ms Chimanse said.

The political parties have demanded that the fees be reduced by 50 per cent based on the 2016 nomination fees structure.

Political parties have also threatened to withdraw from political parties liaison if ECZ does not meet its demands.

ECZ has revised its proposed to K95, 000 for male Presidential candidates, K75, 000 for female candidates and K70, 000 for youth candidates.

It has also pegged fees for Parliamentary aspirants as K15, 000 for male candidates, K13, 500 for female candidates and K10, 000 for youth candidates.

ECZ has also proposed to increase nomination fees for councilors to K1, 500 for male candidates, K1, 000 for female and youth candidates respectively.

‘INTRODUCE CAR CARRIERS TO END SMUGGLING’

By PETER SICHALI

T

HE Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA) should introduce car carriers to curtail smuggling of motor vehicles, Customs Clearing and Freight Forwarding Agents Association of Zambia president Bruce Kaemba has said.

Mr Kaemba said ZRA has not done much to seal the

loopholes where some unscrupulous importers were evading tax through illegal business practices.

He also explained that some traders importing motor vehicles transiting Zambia to DRC have also resorted to using bush paths instead of the designated borders thereby denying the clearing agent exit data.

"This use of bush paths by these importers has com-

pelled us to implore ZRA to ensure that it introduces the use of car carriers for the vehicles that are transiting Zambia for consumption to other countries for easy monitoring and accountability," he said.

Mr Kaemba said ZRA was sufficiently empowered and legally mandated to strictly enforce among others the routing law to collect more revenue.

He said it was unfortunate

that some transporters had continued exiting Zambia using the border that was not originally declared as the exit point.

Mr Kaemba noted that there was a growing trend among truckers carrying goods in transit to vie off the designated route and park the trucks anywhere both in residential areas and around towns.

He said many trucks that were parked in Chunga, Cha-

wama, Mandevu and other townships in Lusaka, all carrying sensitive goods like cooking oil, flour, batteries and minerals were ignoring the five-day period they had been given to exit the country.

"This is a serious cost on the part of the clearing agent as the guarantor of the goods whose value runs in thousands of dollars," Mr Kaemba said.

Human rights promotion cheers Lungu

By PRISCA LUNGU BANDA GOVERNMENT is making efforts to ensure people have access to basic social services as part of the promotion of human rights, President Edgar Lungu has said.

President Lungu said his government believes that even though provision of education, health, housing, employment and social security is not part of the bill of rights embodied in part iii of the current constitution, it was important that these rights are provided.

“That is why my government places high premium on infrastructure to ensure that roads, schools, and hospitals, among others are built to ensure that Zambian citizens enjoy their civil rights,” President Lungu said.

President Lungu said this when he swore in Reverend Agness Chongo Phiri as Commissioner of the Human

disappointed with the continued reluctance by the ZRA to seriously enforce the routing law over these drivers.

He said the laws of the country needs to be respected but the opposite is prevailing at the moment.

Mr Kaemba said the routing law was clear and stipulates that the driver of the truck carrying goods in transit should at all times maintain the designated route.

Rights Commission at State House yesterday.

Mr Lungu also said his administration strongly subscribes to the tenets of human rights as enshrined in various international conventions on human rights.

He says Government respects and would continue to respect, protect and fulfill the human rights of all citizens.

“My government respects, protects and supports institutions like the Judiciary, National Assembly, Human Rights Commission, Judicial Complaints Commission, Police Public Complaints Authority, Zambia Police Service, The Public Protector, and the Legal Aid Board, all of them critical to the preservation of human rights,” Mr Lungu said.

President Lungu also said he was hopeful that Reverend Phiri’s dedicated past 15 years’ experience would be positively applied in identifying areas that need to be urgently addressed at the Human Rights Commission.

And speaking to journalists after being sworn in, Rev Phiri said she would ensure that the experience she acquired when serving the underprivileged are brought on board.

Chellah Tukuta’s case fails to take off

By MUYANI SHINJABALE THE case in which photographer Chellah Tukuka is charged with four counts failed to take off in the Ndola Magistrate Court yesterday.

When the matter came up for possible trial before Senior Resident Magistrate Peggy Banda, the state informed the court that they were still waiting for consent from the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP).

But Ms Banda asked the state why they would not proceed with the other three counts Tukuta was facing which did not require consent from the DPP. However State Advocate, Innocent Kamunga, said it was important for the DPP's consent because even the witnesses in the three counts would touch on the fourth count. Tukuta's lawyer, Ngoze Nyangu, said justice delayed was justice denied, adding that the state had enough time.

Tukuta "It is unfair on the part of the accused to travel and again travel on a matter that is not showing any sign of progress," Nyangu said But the magistrate said the issue of delayed justice did not stand as this was the first time the matter was coming for trial.

ZRA constructing provincial office complexes

By PETER SICHALI THE Zambia Revenue Authority ZRA has started the construction of provincial offices across the country to enhance service provision.

The Muchinga Province offices costruction are on going and would cost K8 million.

ZRA Commissioner General Kingsley Chanda said the project was part of ZRA’s modernisation agenda.

Mr Chanda said ZRA had planned to have offices in all districts across the country.

ZRA started with construction of provincial offices across the country before extending to districts.

He said the Muchinga Province project was at 40 percent and was expected to be completed by September, this year.

Mr Chanda said the construction of the provincial and district offices was

aimed at enhancing tax compliance and revenue collection.

He said it was the duty of every Zambian to pay taxes hence the move by ZRA to bring services closer to the people.

ZRA was expanding its geographical scope so as to bring tax services closer to the people in all corners of the country.

He said the organisation had also bought a building in Mongu which was being renovated and converted into provincial offices while the Southern Province office construction had started in Choma.

"The idea is for all citizens to have access to tax services without difficulties so that they can start paying taxes to make it easy for Government to provide various social amenities to the citizens.

Mr Chanda said the project would also enable ZRA to contribute to infrastructure stock of the country.

By CHINTU MALAMBO THE Lusaka High Court has ruled that the matter where 11 UNIP members have sued party president Tilyenji Kaunda and others for alleged illegal stay in office as Members of Central Committee (MCCs) is properly before it.

In this matter, 11 UNIP members have sued Kaunda, UNIP vice president Njekwa Anamela, deputy secretary general of the party Alfred Banda and administrative secretary Welfare Mfune for allegedly holding their po-

sitions as members of the Central Committee illegally, claiming that their mandate expired in 2005.

State set to export 600, 000 metric tonnes of maize to DRC MINISTER of Agriculture Michael Katambo has clarified that the agreement which the Zambian government signed with the Republic of Congo (DRC) to supply maize to that country still stands.

Mr Katambo says once the DRC government requests for the maize, the government will certainly facilitate as the memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed last year is still binding.

Mr Katambo explained that the supply of maize is upon demand, adding that any amount of tonnage the DRC government will request, the Zambian government is ready to facilitate.

He explained that the gov-

ernment is promoting formal trade hence the robust fight against smuggling of maize in the country.

“The MoU deal sealed with the DRC government is in effect and should the DRC request we will facilitate. Government promotes formal trade, imagine we anticipate about 150 metric tonnes of maize that will not be accounted for in this year’s marketing season due to smuggling.

Mr Katambo emphasised that only the export of early maize is allowed currently through the tripartite agreement.

2 cops, Chinese deny abduction charge

By OLIVER SAMBOKO TWO Lusaka Police Officers have denied ever abducting and attempting to illegally facilitate the exit of a Chinese national, Wang Shunxue to China.

Appearing before Magistrate Sylvia Munyinya, the Police officers and two Chinese co-accused gave unsworn statements and denied ever abducting Mr Wang Shunxue.

In the matter, the two Police Officers are charged, with two Chinese nationals with three counts of abduction, representing another person in immigration procedure with-

out authority and conducting Immigration exit formalities without authority.

And giving their defence, the two Police officers agreed having gone to Kenneth Kaunda International Airport in Lusaka in 2018, to follow up a swindling case involving US$1.7 million which was reported to Woodlands Police by a Chinse.

They said during the investigation, they discovered that the issue was a civil matter but continued because they thought there was still need to mediate the matter to ensure there was peace and harmony between the parties.

Ms Mbalwe said the findings at the institution contravened the Public Health Act Cap 295 section 68(b) (c) (i) (p) (s) of the Laws of Zambia.

She said the council had applied to the Magistrate courts and an order was granted to go ahead and have the college closed.

"With the coronavirus pandemic, all learning institutions were closed and are scheduled to re-open after the cold season. However, the college will only be opened after the provisions under Public Health Act Cap 295 are complied," Ms Mbalwe added.

please convey my regards and best appreciation for the true selfless leadership that we saw from him when we were cut off by floods.

We are forever grateful for his quick concern and response," she said.

She said the President should continue spearheading developmental projects that are key to the country's economic growth.

And Mr Lubusha has pledged K20, 000 towards the completion of a police post in the area which has been stuck at 60 percent works for some time.

"I am extremely impressed with the good works the Mwanya Community is doing," he said.

Meanwhile, Mr Lubusha has donated assorted Covid-19 prevention items to Mwanya Rural Health Centre in the district.

Receiving the donation, Nurse in-charge Daniel Phiri said the items would be of great help to the health centre.

In count one, Inspector Bataba Lufwendo, Christopher Chanda, Zhuang Youjun and Wang Qinghai are charged with abducting with intent to confine a person contrary to section 256 of the penal code chapter 87 of the laws of Zambia.

Particulars of the offence are that the three, on August 30, 2018, did abduct Wang Shunxue with intent to secretly and wrongly confine him.

In count two, the three are charged with representing another person in immigration procedure without authority contrary to section 47 and 52 of the Immigration and Deportation Act no 18 of 2010 of the laws of Zambia.

The matter has since been adjourned to August 25, 2020, for filing of submission, September 4 and 25, 2020 for mention and judgement respectively.

ZRA constructing provincial office complexes

By PETER SICHALI THE Zambia Revenue Authority ZRA has started the construction of provincial offices across the country to enhance service provision.

The Muchinga Province offices costruction are on going and would cost K8 million.

ZRA Commissioner General Kingsley Chanda said the project was part of ZRA’s modernisation agenda.

Mr Chanda said ZRA had planned to have offices in all districts across the country.

ZRA started with construction of provincial offices across the country before extending to districts.

He said the Muchinga Province project was at 40 percent and was expected to be completed by September, this year.

Mr Chanda said the construction of the provincial and district offices was

aimed at enhancing tax compliance and revenue collection.

He said it was the duty of every Zambian to pay taxes hence the move by ZRA to bring services closer to the people.

ZRA was expanding its geographical scope so as to bring tax services closer to the people in all corners of the country.

He said the organisation had also bought a building in Mongu which was being renovated and converted into provincial offices while the Southern Province office construction had started in Choma.

"The idea is for all citizens to have access to tax services without difficulties so that they can start paying taxes to make it easy for Government to provide various social amenities to the citizens.

Mr Chanda said the project would also enable ZRA to contribute to infrastructure stock of the country.

11 UNIP members’ case will be heard - court

By CHINTU MALAMBO THE Lusaka High Court has ruled that the matter where 11 UNIP members have sued party president Tilyenji Kaunda and others for alleged illegal stay in office as Members of Central Committee (MCCs) is properly before it.

In this matter, 11 UNIP members have sued Kaunda, UNIP vice president Njekwa Anamela, deputy secretary general of the party Alfred Banda and administrative secretary Welfare Mfune for allegedly holding their po-

sitions as members of the Central Committee illegally, claiming that their mandate expired in 2005.

Mr Fackson Njovu and 10 others are seeking an injunction to restrain Mr Kaunda and the others from performing functions of MCCs, an order for an account of all party assets sold from 2000 to date and an order that the outgoing MCCs and the recognised interim MCCs follow the Registrar of Societies directive to jointly organise and hold a congress by forming one working group.

State set to export 600, 000 metric tonnes of maize to DRC MINISTER of Agriculture Michael Katambo has clarified that the agreement which the Zambian government signed with the Republic of Congo (DRC) to supply maize to that country still stands.

Mr Katambo says once the DRC government requests for the maize, the government will certainly facilitate as the memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed last year is still binding.

Mr Katambo explained that the supply of maize is upon demand, adding that any amount of tonnage the DRC government will request, the Zambian government is ready to facilitate.

He explained that the gov-

ernment is promoting formal trade hence the robust fight against smuggling of maize in the country.

“The MoU deal sealed with the DRC government is in effect and should the DRC request we will facilitate. Government promotes formal trade, imagine we anticipate about 150 metric tonnes of maize that will not be accounted for in this year’s marketing season due to smuggling.

“That is why we have embraced multi-sectoral fight with the ministries of Home Affairs and Defence to fight smuggling which is working very well,” he said On other mutual agreements, Mr Katambo pointed

General of the party had argued that the 11 plaintiffs were no longer genuine members of UNIP and thus the matter should have been thrown out.

According to an affidavit in support of notice of intention to raise preliminary issues, Banda claimed that the lead plaintiff in the matter, Mr Njovu, was no longer a member of UNIP as he defected to the MMD after he sold a party building in Chaisa and he never applied for re-admission to the party.

He also stated that the other plaintiffs were also not genuout that the Zambia National Farmers Union (ZNFU), Grain Traders Association of Zambia, Millers Association of Zambia and the Food Reserve Agency went into a tripartite agreement that saw farmers grow early maize.

He underscored that people are free to buy the early maize from ZNFU and export through the same tripartite agreement.

Mr Katambo emphasised that only the export of early maize is allowed currently through the tripartite agreement.

The minister also said the country is food secure owing to the bumper harvest in the last two consecutive seasons and that the country has set aside 210, 000 metric tonnes for export this year.

Last year in October, Zambia signed an agreement with the DRC to export about 600, 000 metric tonnes of maize starting in 2020. - ZANIS.

But in his ruling, the district registrar, Nyimbiri dismissed the two issues by the defendants that the plaintiffs’ action was premised on facts that were already determined and amount to abuse of court process and that the plaintiffs had no locus standi to take the action before court.

Ms Mbalwe said the institution had filthy floors, stained ceiling boards in the classrooms as evidenced from the leaking roof.

"Other things found were that it had deteriorated and needing off paintwork on its internal walls of the male and female toilets at the hostels.

"It also had defective cisterns in the water closets in all the toilets. It also had no wholesome and sufficient running water supply at the premises,'' she said She said the sanitary facilities were also in a deplorable and unhygienic state in both the male and female hostels.

Embattled BA looks to cash in on its art collection LONDON - Struggling airline British Airways is planning to raise more than $1 million from the sale of paintings and prints from its corporate art collection at Sotheby’s this month.

The 17 artworks will be offered in two auctions and are expected to fetch 920, 000 pounds ($1.16 million) to 1.4 million pounds, Sotheby’s said on Tuesday.

The top lot of the group - an abstract painting by British artist Bridget Riley - will be part of Sotheby’s Rembrandt to Richter evening sale on July 28. The rest of the works will appear in an online sale of modern British art, running July 20-30.

The carrier is selling the art at the time when global airlines are reeling from the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, which effectively shut down air travel.

The industry expects to see $84 billion in losses in 2020, the International Air Transport

Association said last month.

British Airways, the UK unit of IAG SA, has been “fighting for its survival,” according to IAG Chief Executive Officer Willie Walsh. The company has come under fire from unions and members of Parliament over plans to eliminate 12, 000 jobs, or about 30 percent of its staff.

“During this unprecedented time we have made the decision to work with Sotheby’s, one of the world’s leading and most trusted auction houses, to sell a number of pieces by artists including Bridget Riley and Damien Hirst,” Carolina Martinoli, British Airways’ director of brand and customer experience, said in a statement.

“We are fortunate to have been able to showcase a wealth of artists and creativity through our artwork collection, many of which have been a special part of the design of our lounges worldwide.”

The most valuable painting of the group is Riley’s 1982 painting “Cool Edge,” estimated at 800, 000 pounds to 1.2 million pounds. The painting belongs to the “Egyptian Series” inspired by her trip to Egypt in 1979, according to Sotheby’s.

STAYING AFLOAT …South African Airways creditors approve rescue plan

J

OHANNESBURG - South African Airways (SAA) creditors approved a rescue plan for the struggling airline on Tuesday that requires at least 10 billion rand ($596 million) in new funding, throwing the ball into the government’s court to come up with the cash.

State-owned SAA, which last made a profit in 2011, entered bankruptcy protection in December and suspended commercial passenger flights in March when the government imposed one of the world’s strictest lockdowns to contain the new coronavirus.

Fierce wrangling between the airline’s administrators,

has been setting record highs even as Covid-19 has been spreading fast in the United States.

Though risk assets had been rising since the record selloff in March, “sentiment remains cautious” with cash levels rising to 4.9 percent from 4.7 percent, BofA added.

“Wall Street’s $24 trillion rally yet to elicit ‘greed’.”

The bank said it expects stock markets to remain choppy during summer, recommeding selling when the S&P 500 goes above 3, 250 points and buying when it falls below 2, 950. Investors saw a coronavirus second wave as the biggest “tail risk” for the fourth month running with just 14 percent of them expecting a “V”-shaped economic recovery versus 44 percent expecting a “U.” and 30 percent a “W.” A V-shaped recovery is when a plunge in growth is followed by an equally sharp recovery; U-shaped is when recovery takes more than a couple of quarters; and W-shaped refers to a double-dip in growth.

– REUTERS.

Enterprises (DPE), the ministry responsible for SAA, told Reuters last week it was on track to make the funding commitment. It is not yet clear where funding will come from, after the finance minister allocated no new money to SAA in an emergency budget. The government says it has Siviwe Dongwana been talking to investors and potential partners, but has given few details. – REUTERS.

Among factors boosting European assets is Europe’s relative success in gradually reopening its economy and the European Union’s proposed 750 billion euro recovery fund to help countries deal with the fallout from the coronavirus crisis.

Investors’ allocation to euro zone equities increased 9 percentage point to net 16 percent overweight, the largest increase in net weighting of any region this month. A net 44 percent of the 210 investors surveyed between Jun 2-9 said the euro was cheap.

The survey also showed a rush to the resilient U.S. technology stocks was gathering more pace in July with a record 74 percent of investors calling it the most “crowded trade.”

the government and trade unions has complicated rescue efforts, which delayed the publication of a restructuring plan until last month.

That plan envisages scaling back the airline’s fleet and shedding jobs before gradually ramping up operations as the disruption caused by Covid-19 eases.

Administrator Siviwe Dongwana told a creditor meeting the plan had been approved by 86 percent of voting interests. “It is an important step forward for the airline and provides much-needed certainty towards a restructured SAA,” he added in a statement.

LONDON - Troubled airline Virgin Atlantic has finalised a rescue deal worth £1.2 billion that should protect thousands of jobs.

Sir Richard Branson’s Virgin Group will inject £200 million, with additional funds provided by investors and creditors.

The billionaire Virgin boss had a request for government money rejected, leaving the airline in a race against time to secure new investment.

Virgin Atlantic is cutting 3, 500 staff, but the airline said the remaining 6, 500 jobs should be secure.

SA’s mining output plunges in May despite easing of restrictions JOHANNESBURG - South Africa’s mining production declined 29.8 percent year-on-year in May, as the government eased Covid-19 regulations to allow for a phased return to production for the industry.

The decline comes on the back of a 47 percent slump in April when the country was under a stricter lockdown, which saw most mines placed under care and maintenance.

According to data released

by Statistics South Africa on

Tuesday, the largest contributors to the dip seen in May were iron ore, which shrank by -66.3 percent, followed by platinum group metals, which fell by -27.3 percent.

Manganese ore production decline by -45.4 percent, with the national statistical agency stating that the Covid-19 pandemic and the resultant lockdown regulations had had an “extensive impact on economic activity.”

May saw the easing of the lockdown regulations from alert level 5 to level 4, which allowed underground operations to ramp-up production to 50 percent and open cast mines to shift to full capacity.

FNB believes that sub-optimal operating conditions may have prevented a more meaningful pickup in output, while a report by Nedbank forecast that production was still expected to record a sharp decline on a year-on-year basis.

Mineral sales, meanwhile, were down 13.4 percent yearon-year in May 2020, with

As with other airlines, the Covid-19 outbreak plunged Virgin Atlantic into a crisis as air travel dried up. Virgin grounded most of its fleet for months, but is due to resume some services next week.

The company had initially hoped the government would step in with up to £500m in bailout loans, but ministers made it clear taxpayers’ money could only be considered once all other options had been exhausted.

In the three months ended May 2020, the seasonally adjusted value of mineral sales at current prices was 18-2 percent lower compared with the previous three months.

Despite the further easing of regulations, a number of mining housing have indicated that they are yet to return to full production, in light of health and safety protocols aimed at preventing the spread of Covid-19 in mines. – FIN24.

The current political system is failing Zambia Dear Editor,

proof that our political system is not about competing for development but purely for political hegemony.

Michael Sata's Patriotic Front showed us what opposition politics can achieve when it is issue-based. He formed committees that played checks and balances role for the key ministries.

They served as “policy watch” and formulated alternative policies to compete with the MMD Government. It was the same alternative policies which gained Sata the people's trust because he explained them in clear terms.

Today, we don't even know what the opposition could ever do for Zambia because they only exist to oppose everything the government does.

Regime change, based on

WHY are the opposition scared of discussing President Edgar Lungu's achievements?

The opposition fear to discuss President Lungu's achievements because they know that voters may appreciate these programmes and use objectivity when they go to the polls, and this is why politics of deception is at the centre of Africa's underdevelopment.

As things stand, President Lungu can never do anything right in the eyes of the opposition because it would work against their political ambitions.

But surely, politics should not be a self-preservation tool but a vehicle for development.

It does not make any development sense to invest in distorting the current regime's achievements at the expense of sharing how one would Regime change, improve on them to contibased on nuity. unsubstantiated The MMD, instead of improving on what UNIP had corruption achieved, spent 20 years deallegations, stroying the Kaunda legacy, selling all the State-owned can’t bring companies which sent hun- sustainable economic dreds to the graves and thoudevelopment.

Viva YALI on defending the people’s bill 10

MWEETWA; SHAME PLAYS AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN POLITICAL LIFE Dear Editor,

S

HAME controls our lives in many powerful ways.

And even though its rules are not written, we expect people to follow their sense of shame as a moral compass.

When it comes to public figures, political leaders such as Cornelius Mweetwa, the public has even greater expectations for his moral standards as it relates to parliamentary decorum, etiquettes and respect for elders.

It is worrisome that political leaders have become shameless and more grave is that their political establishment approves of it.

While shameful behaviour, defined as a transgression of accepted social conduct, is part of everyday life, shamelessness is actually a threat to social order. That’s because it involves refusing to abide by agreed-upon social rules as was exhibited by Mr Mweetwa on the material day.

Ultimately, by disregarding the values on which we have built our parliamentary business processes, is a sure sign that such a leaders can easily abuse power if given opportunity to run national affairs.

More worrisome is that Mr Mweetwa’s political establishment, by having their MPs walk out of parliament; approved such shamelessness. This is a telltale sign of what they would be capable of if given opportunity to run national affairs.

Zambians should not overlook this as an isolated incident but as a tip of an iceberg of what is in store.

Mind you, this kind of shamelessness came from Creme de la Crème of their party establishment, what do you expect from those on the tail end? “Zambians open your eyes.”

It is a rule of a thumb that sense of shame is supposed to prevent

leaders from actions that hurt people. It was very clear and with no shadow of doubt, based on the Speaker’s evidence-based deliberation on the subject matter, Mr Mweetwa attacked and hurt the persona of the Republican Vice President.

The disparaging remarks were not directed at the Republican Vice President‘s statement as he intimated in his press briefing but on the persona of the VEEP. The position is evidence-based and this fact cannot be disputed.

Thus it is not right on his part to misinform the public on the subject matter for political expediency. More importantly, it is clear that there was failure on his part to live up to parliamentary decorum, etiquettes and respect for elders; so admitting to feeling ashamed and apologise was an attempt to repair relations broken by a disregard of those values.

Unfortunately, we seem to be entering an era in which we can no longer expect publicly elected officials to rely on a sense of shame to act with contrition and make amends.

Criticism of Mr Mweetwa’s crossing of moral standards seems to provoke even more brazen behaviour, testing the boundaries of what is considered acceptable.

Zambians should take note that becoming accustomed to the lack of apology and impudence from public figures has grave consequences.

As writer Michiko Kakutani notes in her excellent analysis of Trump’s America, T h e Death of Tr u t h , people

were slow to recognise the danger of Hitler because he unravelled his plans in small doses, carefully observing what people would tolerate along the way.

Thus, the shamelessness on the part of Mr Mweetwa is not an isolated occurrence but an epitome of the big picture of the political establishment to which he belongs.

It is prudent for the Zambian citizens, to critically interrogate this occurrence as we prepare for the 2021 general election.

To my brother, an apology will not hurt; in fact an apology is a lovely perfume, it can transform the clumsiest moment into a gracious gift. Epompelele.

SENSIO BANDA, Member of Parliament Kasenengwa Constituency.

-

Dear Editor, FIRSTLY, it is disappointing for the self-proclaimed democrats such as UPND to claim to be champions of freedom of expression yet they are intolerable to divergent views of those they believe to be PF. Ever since some civil societies started speaking on behalf of youths who have endorsed President Edgar Lungu as a sole candidate in 2021, they have received threats of persecution and UPND cadres have declared them enemy number one of the Hichilema Administration.

The Young Leaders Initiative is among the activists who are endangered if the political party led by foreign interests assumed state power.

YALI has made relentless efforts to defend the constitution and good governance. It has been firm and consistent in the constitution refinement process. They have endured that what was agreed at the all stakeholders’ engagement is what the legislature confined itself to. I’n this vein, we are encouraged that a youthful organisation can manage to mobilise enormous financial resources for the purpose of popularising Bill 10.

The initiative to summarise the contents of Bill 10 on billboards will influence the electorates to hold their MPs accountable regardless of how they will vote. We wish to express our disappointment with the double standards played by the opposition and their surrogates. Not too long ago, they came up with fliers, radio adverts to denounce the proposed amendment to the constitution. That was regarded as freedom of expression.

Today, YALI has expressed its view and proactively defended its decision the opposition and their surrogates have attempted to discourage them from enjoying their democratic rights.

What is good for the goose, is good for the gander.

The intolerance that the UPND has shown does not pass the test of being reasonably justified in the democratic society. We wish to encourage YALI that their innovative ways of campaigning for the constitution are welcome and we will give them the necessary support. MARVIN CHANDA MBERI, Youth Rights Activist, Lusaka.

IN an effort to decongest Kitwe Teaching Hospital (KTH) and to take critical heath care services closer to the people, Chimwemwe clinic will be upgraded to a first level hospital.

Mr Mtonga indicated that

for the first time since the implementation, the GSB collected K1 million on Tuesday this week.

He was speaking at the Provincial Administration in Ndola when he paid a courtesy call on Copperbelt Permanent Secretary Bright Nundwe yesterday.

Mr Mtonga stated that the service currently housed 36 services and would add another 30 or more before the end of

He said the implementation of the online services had helped the Government save a lot of money as there were no revenue leakages.

Mr Mtonga advised the public to embrace Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) as the country lived in the new normal of Covid-19.

‘SHE OPTED TO PAY ME WITH EVIL’

By BENNIE MUNDANDO

I

HAVE gone through a painful divorce after giving my wife everything a loving husband can give out of love, including selling my studio equipment to raise money to send her to college, a Seventh-Day Adventist Church elder has revealed.

Narrating his predicament yesterday, Crodwell Sikaala of Kalomo, said what started as a loving affair in 2011 and culminated into marriage two years later had left scars in his heart which he says he will remember for the rest of his life.

Read the full interview here: Reporter: Tell us how this whole affair started.

Mr. Sikaala: It was in 2011 when I met this beautiful young lady by the name of Doreen Muntanga. We became best friends before our affair started. Doreen did not hide anything from me.

She told me that she had a problem which she suspected to be fibroid or ovarian cyst.

As a young man brought up in the church, I never cared because I knew v e r y

well how God is capable of changing seemingly impossible situations. I told her that I would share in her problems and that God would see us through.

On December 29, 2013, we got married with a beautiful wedding which took place in Kalomo. A few weeks after our marriage, I discovered that my wife had a spiritual husband but when I asked her about it, she denied.

One Friday evening, I was preparing a sermon and I went to bed very late. Before sleeping, I heard my wife talking to herself but I could not hear anything she was saying.

After a few minutes she started acting like she was making love. I woke her up and when I inquired what was happening, she said she was dreaming that we were making love.

Reporter: So, how did you resolve this problem?

Mr. Sikaala: I did not keep quiet. I informed her parents about the strange things happening to us, and they promised to help us. I also engaged men of God to pray for us and they did their best. We were in and out of hospitals frequently but the problem worsened.

In April 2017, her parents demanded that I take their daughter to college. I accepted though at that time, my business was not doing well because I was spending so much on my wife’s medication.

So, for me to send my wife to school, I sold a pair of studio equipment for K10, 000 and got her enrolled in the school of education where she pursued primary school diploma.

In 2018, I sold the remaining pair of studio equipment at K15, 000 and all the money

went to her education but I did not give up because I loved my wife so much.

For your own information, we got married soon after completing my diploma in Travel and Tourism under the London Centre of Marketing in South Africa. I also did Purchasing and Supplying at Evelyn Hone, as well as International Tourism at the Livingstone Institute of Business and Engineering Studies (LIBES) in Livingstone.

In 2019, my mother in-law came to our house. It was on a Wednesday. A day after, around 13:00 my wife’s uncle called me, asking where I was as they were at my house. I went home, only to find that my father in-law was also there. They inquired where my parents were but I told them that they were not around and it was not possible to call them because they were not aware that there was going to be any meeting on that day as no one had told us.

After a four-hour discussion, it was agreed that my wife must go and stay at her uncle’s place because my mother in-law insisted that the problem that was causing her daughter to be sick was in my house.

However, the problem worsened after my wife was taken out of my house. After a week, I received a call saying my wife’s condition had worsened. When I got there, my wife was almost lifeless. I took her to Choma from Kalomo for medication and her condition improved a bit.

In august 2019 I paid her exam fees and that was the last time I talked to my wife. She just disappeared.

She was neither at her uncle’s house where we had resolved she must stay nor at her mother’s place in Mapanza. I tried to communicate with her but to no avail. I involved the church but it never worked out.

In September 2019 I was just told your wife is admitted at Zimba

Mission Hospital.

I went there and found that she had just had an operation and I had to incur all the costs with the hope that she will come back to her senses and get back but even as I was doing all these things Doreen never changed her mind.

In November 2019 I paid for her teaching practical and in December, she went back to school. After that she disappeared again. This forced me to go to court where I sued my mother in-law to reveal where my wife was.

While at court, my mother in-law requested that we talk about the matter outside court, to which I obliged. She apologised for the disappearance of my wife and promised she would tell her daughter to start picking my calls but never told me where she was.

Reporter: how did you divorce since you did not know where she was and she avoided all your calls during this period?

Mr. Sikaala: From the time I took my in-law to court, nothing changed.

I still did not know where she was and she never picked my calls. So, in April 2020, I went to Mapanza where her mother lives and when I got there, she told me she did not know where my wife was.

While I was still there, I called her and fortunately, this time, she picked my call and when I asked where she was, she lied that she was at her mother’s place in Mapanza.

When I told her that I was with her mother at her place and that she had told me she did not know where she was, she cut my call and never picked again.

Realising that I was fighting a losing battle after spending so much on her medication and school, I decided to sue her for legal divorce. She used to come to Kalomo to attend to court sessions until when the divorce was granted on Friday last week.

She claimed that she was coming from her mother’s place in Mapanza but I don’t know how true that was because there are rumours that she is actually already married in Choma but I could not ascertain whether that was true or not.

Reporter: So, how do you feel now that you have divorced?

Mr. Sikaala: It is very painful because I wasted a lot of time, money for medication and her education. I did this out of love but after losing everything, she has her education while my business grounded to a halt. I am starting afresh from the scratch because of the sacrifice I made for her.

The most painful part is that she even went to the extent of telling the court that she did not object to divorce because I was the one responsible for her health problems yet she had told me about it before we even got married. I still loved her even when we did not have any child but she opted to pay me with evil.

Ex-Nigerian leader appointed to mediate Mali crisis ABUJA - Former Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan has been appointed a special envoy for Mali to try resolve the political crisis in the country. His appointment was announced

Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia deadlocked on Nile dam in new talks

ADDIS ABABA/CAIRO - Egypt, Ethiopia and Sudan have failed to reach agreement at a new round of talks hosted by the African Union to regulate the flow of water from the giant Blue Nile hydropower dam built by Addis Ababa, the three countries said.

The dam is the centrepiece in Ethiopia’s bid to become Africa’s biggest power exporter, but has sparked concerns in Cairo that Egypt’s already scarce supplies of Nile waters, on which its population of more than 100 million people is almost entirely dependent, would be further restricted. – REUTERS.

China vows to retaliate

BEIJING - China has vowed to retaliate after the US ended Hong Kong’s preferential trade status and imposed sanctions on officials who crack down on rights. President Donald Trump said he was acting because China had taken away Hong Kong’s freedom after it imposed a new security law.

Beijing condemned Trump’s decision, saying it would impose sanctions on relevant people and entities in the US. US-China ties have become increasingly strained over a wide range of issues. – BBC.

SA MINISTER TESTS POSITIVE FOR COVID-19

J

OHANNESBURG - South Africa's Minister of Mineral Resources and Energy, Gwede Mantashe, and his wife have tested positive for Covid-19.

The couple were in isolation and the minister would continue to work from home, a statement from the cabinet said.

This was Mantashe's third round of tests since the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic.

And as pressure mounts for schools to close amid a surge in Covid-19 infections in KINSHASA The Democratic Republic of Congo has given copper and cobalt mining companies a month to stop confining workers on site away from their families as part of Covid-19 restrictions and return to normal operations, the labour minister said in an open letter.

Workers have been told by managers to either stay

South Africa, the Department of Basic Education says they remain open until further notice, as Minister Angie Motshekga engages with stakeholders in the sector.

Schools have been a talking point since their reopening on June 8, when most Grade 7 and 12 pupils returned to classrooms.

Teachers' unions, many parents and some experts were prompted to heighten their calls for schools to remain closed after pupils and teachers started testing positive across the country.

South Africa has confirmed

about 287, 000 coronavirus cases, according to the World Health Organisation, the highest on the continent.

Worldwide coronavirus cases cross 13.37 million, death toll at 577 366 More than 13.37 million people have been reported to be infected by the novel coronavirus globally and 577 366 have died, according to a Reuters tally.

Infections have been reported in more than 210 countries and territories since the first cases were identified in China in December 2019. – NEWS24/AFP.

Minister Gwede Mantashe had previously tested negative

Congo gives mines month to end COVID restrictions and work or lose their jobs, civil society organisations said last month, citing miners and union representatives and demanding an end to the approach.

“All mining companies that have confined workers to the operating site are granted a one-month moratorium to return to normal operation,” Labour Minister Nene Ilunga

Nkula said in the letter, dated July 13, which she shared on Twitter on Tuesday.

Mining companies must provide healthcare for workers and their families, as well as decent housing and a healthy diet for confined workers, Nkula said.

Congo is Africa’s top copper producer and the world’s main source of cobalt, accounting for

two-thirds of global supplies of the metal used in smartphones and electric car batteries.

Mines minister Willy Kitobo Samsoni has said full mine shutdowns would trigger a catastrophic economic and social crisis in the country, with the industry contributing 32 percent of its GDP and 95 percent of export revenue in 2018.

NORTH-WEST GETS K17.5M FOR CROP PURCHASES

By JACKSON MAPAPAYI

G

OVERNMENT has released about K17.5 million for the purchase of crops from a farmers in North-Western Province.

The money will be disbursed to farmers through financial institutions in all the districts in the region.

Provincial Permanent Secretary, Willies Mangimela,

told journalists in Solwezi that of the total amount, K3.61 million has so far been used.

He said Kasempa would get the biggest amount of K5.775 million followed by Solwezi and Mufumbwe which would have K3.5 and K2.8 million respectively.

He said Kabompo and Mwinilunga had been allocated K2.450 million each while Zambezi and Chavuma would get K350,000 and K175,000

respectively. Mr Mangimela said K7.970 million has been committed to maize while K9.52 million is awaiting for deliveries.

"I wish to announce to the public that Government has released funds for the purchase of maize from all the farmers in the region, and as I speak, the Food Reserve Agency is already on the ground buying the crop," he said.

Mr Mangimela called on farmers to stop offering their maize to briefcase buyers.

He said this was because most of the briefcase buyers use adjusted scales thereby stealing from the farmers.

Mr Mangimela instructed the Provincial Joint Operation Committee to scale up operations to curb the rampant smuggling of maize and mealie meal to neighbouring countries.

THE Food Reserve Agency (FRA) has so far bought 10, 117 bags of maize translating into 505.85 tonnes from farmers in five districts of Southern Province.

FRA has also paid out K1, 112,870 million to farmers who supplied the commodity in Region ‘B’ comprising Monze, Mazabuka, Namwala, Gwembe, and Chikankata.

FRA Region ‘B’ Marketing Manager, Stephen Liato, said his organisation was making steady progress in the purchase of the commodity and was confident that the 42, 900 tones target would be met. Mr Liato explained that most farmers still have

unshelled maize in their bans as they never expected the FRA to start buying maize early this year. “We started on a slow rate because most farmers never expected the agency to start buying their commodity early and have unshelled maize in their bans.

“However, I am optimistic that farmers will start bringing their maize to the agency so that by the end of the marketing season we shall be able meet the target of 42, 900 metric tonnes in region B,” Mr Liato said.

Meanwhile, Mr Liato complained that some civic and traditional leaders in certain parts of Monze and Gweembe were threatening farmers with evictions from their land if they sold their white maize to the FRA. He said such retrogressive action was detrimental to Government’s vision to ensure national food security and ultimately household food security.

Mr Liato said FRA was buying maize for strategic food reserves for the benefit of all Zambians and expected people to support the exercise.

DAILY ASTROLOGICAL PREDICTION FOR 16 JULY, 2020

TAURUS You shouldn’t take anything or anyone too seriously right now. There is a lot of uncertainty around many things, so whatever bluster someone is throwing your way has no real energy behind it. Not only is their bark worse than their bite, they barely have any teeth at all.

They might be in a hurry, but you are feeling like taking things slowly, and you have the right idea! The people in your group are likely to side with you, so don’t hesitate to call things to a vote.

GEMINI Today you are starting to feel more drawn to homey activities and cozy couch-bound nights.

The social scene isn’t too intriguing.

This is great news for one of your friends or your family members who would love to join you in some downtime. It’s a great evening to stream a movie, order some takeout, and just relax knowing that there’s no place you need to be and nothing you have to do. Times like these don’t come around often, so you have to savor them!

CANCER Your sensitive and emotional nature will prove to be a problem for you.

Hence you need to control your emotions. Tread carefully when it comes to personal relationships. You need to wait for a better time before you think of proposing to that special someone, says Ganesha.

LEO Positive possibilities abound in your life right now, so it is a very good time to act boldly. Step more aggressively toward what you want out of life, whether it’s a new job or a new relationship. You could meet someone who changes your opinion about what the best next step is in your health routine. They obviously know what they are talking about, so follow up and start learning more about their suggested techniques. Find out if they’re right for you.

VIRGO It will be very easy for you to enjoy yourself no matter what you have to do or who you have to do it with! Even if you have problems with a few co-workers, it won’t be difficult to come to an agreement about the right strategy. You have the ability to see the bigger picture and rise above pettiness, so inspire others to do the same by setting all of your personal biases aside. Lead by example and show other people the best way to be.

LIBRA Your time is just as valuable as your money, so pay attention to who you are spending it with. Spend some time talking with a person who has given you so much of their time in the past. Plan a long conversation with them if you can, even if it has to be online. You’ll enjoy having so much dedicated one-on-one time with someone who makes your life a happier and more interesting place. A great big dose of interpersonal energy will reset your attitude toward one of the other relationships in your life.

SCORPIO Bad habits are the ones that die the hardest, so if you are trying to improve yourself right now (and really, when aren’t you

…as FIFA T remains mute

By MICHAEL MIYOBA

MASSIVE FARM IMPLEMENTS, TRUCKS AND FURNITURE

HE Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) says it is still waiting for FIFA to communicate when it will meet warring sports administrators who recently signed a consent document aimed at ending the wrangles in football circles.

The warring football administrators who had sued FAZ signed a consent judgement and agreed to drop the court cases as they await FIFA who had given the association a 10-day ultimatum to resolve wrangles, to meet them and decide on the way forward.

With over five days gone since FAZ wrote to FIFA informing the international soccer governing body of the key role it will have to play to end the squabbles, FIFA hasn’t

communicated on the much anticipated meeting involving FIFA, FAZ and aggrieved individuals.

FAZ vice president Rix Mweemba said the association is yet to receive official communication concerning the scheduled meeting to be chaired by FIFA officials.

Mweemba is however hopeful that FIFA will in the next two weeks guide on how the meeting will be held having provided an option for the meeting to be held via teleconference because of the escalating cases of Covid-19.

“We are still waiting to hear from FIFA. We will have this very important meeting with FIFA and other stakeholders but we are yet to receive communication on whether we can have it online depending on the status of the Covid-19 pandemic.

“If it will be conducive for FIFA officials to travel, then within the next two weeks I think we will be able to conclude on everything,” Mweemba said.

Meanwhile, Mweemba has reaffirmed FAZ’s commitment to continue with developmental projects such as the ongoing goal keeper coaches training course in Kitwe.

Mweemba said the coaching course which commenced in Lusaka last week will be concluded on the Copperbelt as the association commits to enhancing the skills of goal keeper coaches in the country.

“We don’t look at squabbles our idea is that we provide development of the game in Zambia despite who is there.

What we look at is the development must go on with or without Rix Mweemba.

By MUKWIMA CHILALA CONFUSION has continued to reign over the lease of Matero Stadium as Lusaka Mayor Miles Sampa has warned the Lusaka City Council (LCC) to desist from advertising invitations for lease of the facility or he would institute legal measures to stop them from doing so.

And Sampa has maintained that he still enjoys lease of tenancy for Matero Stadium, an agreement which would only come end in 2021.

In a letter by his lawyers Mambwe Lisimba, Siwila & Lisimba Advocates, addressed to Lusaka City Council Town Clerk, Alex Mwansa, Sampa noted that the local authority had not given him any letter nor had any discussion that the lease agreement for the stadium was being terminated before the contract ends.

He noted that he had also not been furnished with details of decisions which was made by the finance Committee meeting chaired by Mwembeshi Ward 28 Councillor Kelvin Kaunda to terminate a contract duly signed in 2011.

“Your office has neither had any discussion with our client nor has our client received any formal letter stating that the lease contract is being terminated before expiry date,’’ read part of the letter.

“Our Client informs us that you

have now decided to proceed and advertise the said stadium without die regard or notice to our client’s accrued rights. We have instructions to commence action against the Council and seek to obtain any preventive order that would ensure our client’s rights are protected. Our writing to you is to demand that you desist and in fact stop all maneuvers intended to frustrate our client’s legal rights in the lease.’’
