He noted that it was better to promote Zambian philosophy in line with Christian values adding that the country should not be ashamed to pursue a better destiny. Col Muyoba explained that Zambians integrity is unique hence there should be a unique philosophy which was founded by UNIP under Dr Kenneth Kaunda. He stated that it was prudent to have one philosophy to promote traditions of communal way of life on which all political parties’ vision or programmes should be based.

GOVERNMENT has received a grant of over US$6 million dollars from the Global Environment Facility (GEF) to address effects of climate change in Wetlands. Lands Minister Jean Kapata announced at press briefing in Lusaka yesterday that the Global Environment Facility had approved Government’s proposal for a grant amounting to 6,185,000) towards the project which will be implemented by UN-Environment as the Implementing Agency. She said the project was aimed at addressing the climate change vulnerability of ecosystems and rural communities around the Lukanga and Bangweulu Wetlands, which are being affected by the on-going degradation of wetlands and forests resulting in the reduction of the provision of ecosystem services.

Mr Bwalya pointed out that when President Edgar Lungu first rolled out a massive infrastructure programme, then minister of Infrastructure and Housing, Ronald Chitotela was targeted.

GOVERNMENT should lift the ban on export of rain-fed maize to allow farmers sell to alternative markets, Zambia National Farmers Union(ZNFU) Public Relations Officer Kelvin Kaleyi has said. Mr Kaleyi said the country has produced enough maize therefore government should allow farmers to export to markets with attractive prices. He said the Country has produced 3.3 metric tonnes out of which 1 metric tonnes will be bought by the Food Reserve Agency (FRA). Mr Kaleyi said government should allow farmers to export the surplus so that they can improve their production. “3.3 metric tonnes that the country has produced this year is quiet huge and government should allow export of excess of rain fed maize. We want a good market and good prices for our farmers so that they can grow and start growing maize throughout this year to boost their income levels and national food security,” he said. Mr Kaleyi said ZNFU was interested in ensure that there is a good market with attractive prices for farmers to sell their produce so that they can improve on production and machining their farming. And Mr Kaleyi said the farmers were looking to export 83,000 metric tonnes of early maize. He said ZNFU and other stakeholders will soon conclude formalities in readiness for export. Mr Kaleyi said farmers have in excess of 83,000 tonnes of winter maize out of 135,000 metric tonnes produced last winter.

Lungu asks world leaders to seek debt relief as Covid bites By AARON CHIYANZO

RESIDENT Edgar Lungu has asked member countries of the Organization of African Caribbean and Pacific States to solicit for debt relief or cancelation in the wake of the Covid-19 outbreak. President Lungu also called for the establishment of a virtual platform for sharing best practices and measures on the fight against the pandemic. The President Said this during the first ever Virtual Extraordinary Intersession Summit of the Heads of State and Government for the Organization of African Caribbean and Pacific States which was chaired by Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta. President Lungu also stressed the need for enhancing research and local development of vaccinations and cure of Covid-19.

President Lungu “Let’s adequately mobilize resources from local and international community and direct our respective ambassadors and representatives in Brussels to lobby for enhanced support from the European Union,” he said. President Lungu said the Covid-19 pandemic had caused massive distraction to lives worldwide and that Zambia had not been spared. The Summit condemned the killing of a black American, Floyd George by Minneapolis police officer and called for the ending of racism. The virtual summit was attended by South African president, Cyril Ramaposa, President of France Emmanuel Macron and UN secretary general António Guterres among other Heads of State and prime ministers. The OACPS, formerly known as the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) Group of States, comprises 79 African, Caribbean and Pacific states, with all, save Cuba, signatories to the Cotonou Agreement which binds them to the European Union.

Harrington renews court bid over Forest 27 By CHINTU MALAMBO and SILUMESI MALUMO

FORMER Environment Minister, William Harrington, and an environmentalist Robert Chimambo have filed an application in the Court of Appeal to renew the judicial review seeking to challenge the decision by deputy chief justice to refuse to establish a tribunal against Lands Minister Jean Kapata regarding forest 27. Lusaka High Court Judge Catherine Lombe Phiri on April 15, this year threw out the application on technicalities.c The Judge dismissed the application, stating that it fell below the required standard. But Mr Harrington in a fresh application, said he was not aware of the ruling dated April 15, 2020, as they were not served with any documents to the effect. In this matter, the Attorney General Likando Kalaluka is respondent. Mr Harrington said he and Mr Chimambo only came to know about the ruling on the matter through the media. This has prompted the two to file application in the Court of Appeal in order to be heard on the matter. Mr Harrington said they had been advised by the lawyers that the proper procedure when denied leave to commerce judicial review, was to renew the application before the Court of Appeal. “I only recently became aware of the ruling of the 15 of April 2020 delivered by this honourable court, I now seek the indulgence of this honourable court to grant the applicants leave to renew the said application out of time,” Mr Harrington said. Mr Harrington said he was of view that the tribunal should be appointed in order to address the illegalities in the forest 27.

MWILA WARNS MINISTERS By MICHAEL MIYOBA

MINISTERS have been directed to deal with infringements and other related labour matters unearthed in foreign owned businesses instead of just talking. The Patriotic Front has asked all ministers to side with the people and warned that businesses were infringing on workers’ rights and allowing other wrongs to be done because there was laxity in inspections by various line ministries. And the Patriotic Front PF has warned party officials and ministers to desist from issuing any further statements on the issues concerning foreign investors flouting Zambian labour laws and to instead protect interest of citizens. PF Secretary General, Davis Mwila sounded the warning in Lusaka yesterday in banning discussions on the issue and demanded that line ministries take corrective action on all infringements unearthed and to investigate more business for compliance . Mr Mwila said in Lusaka yesterday, the party expects to see less talk and more action from line Ministries. Mr. Mwila said no member

Mr Mwila or party official including Ministers is allowed to comment on the issue concerning foreign investors flouting Zambian labour laws and the unfortunate incidents that have also led to the loss of some lives of foreign investors because the Party gave its position on the matter. Mr. Mwila said party expects more action and less talk from the Ministry of Local Government and other relevant duty bearers. He said the Ministry of Local Government must actively play its part, just as other ministries such as Home Affairs and Labour in screening some “Foreign Investors” doing small businesses like barbershops

and hair salons. Mr Mwila said there are enough laws to restrict foreigners from investing in business which were a preserve of local people and wondered how the foreign investors were obtaining the licences. He also said if people were doing their jobs properly, they would have checked on such business and ensured foreign investors had the required foreign currency to invest instead of setting up barber shops and salons. He explained that such scenarios were happening because of lack of inspections. Mr Mwila noted that some foreign investors venturing in

small business may not have permits to work as beauticians, but end up choking the market and taking the much needed jobs from locals. “Government line ministries must take particular interest in Zambians who obtain trading licenses which they later on sale to "foreign investors." “The Ministry of Local Government and Housing must make a deliberate effort to ensure that licences to operate businesses like barbershops and hair salons are not given to "foreign investors,” Mr. Chama said. He said businesses such as barbershops and hair salons, should be and must be operated by local people. Mr. Mwila said than an investor can only be classified as a “Foreign Investor” if they bring into the country not less than $250 000 worth of investment. Mr. Mwila reaffirmed the PF’s commitment under the leadership of President Edgar Lungu to continue growing Zambian businesses and empowering local investors. He also cautioned PF Ministers to listen to the Zambian people because it is the duty of the PF as the part in Power to listen when people speak.

EXPLOIT GOLD HARMONIOUSLY PUBLIC discourse in Zambia has lately been awash with gold and manganese mining, taking both negative and positive aspersions. In the positive light, Government and other interest groups have been expounding the high value and much-needed development, which can be derived from gold mining and exports. Mines and Minerals Development Minister, Richard Musukwa, and many other Government officials have emphasised the seriousness with which Government is handling the matter. This includes the policy to have cooperatives of smallscale miners formed so that the resource is exploited in a well-structured manner. Government has also been encouraging Zambians to form joint ventures with financially-sound firms that can bring in sustainable capital. On part of Government, a step has been taken through ZCCM-IH, which has entered into a joint venture through its subsidiary Consolidated Gold Company Zambia (CGCZ), with Array Metals to process gold ore in Mumbwa. In this partnership, an initial investment of about $2.5 million will be invested in the first stage to go towards setting up of a gold wash plant and other mining machinery to mine and process placer gold raw material. Further, CGCZ will hold a 65 per cent stake while Array Metals Zambia will have 35 per cent in the project, with an initial phase to produce about three tonnes of gold worth $150 million. In this formation, CGCZ is a gold processing and trading joint venture with Karma Mining Services and Rural Development at 55 per cent and ZCCM-IH 45 at per cent. Now, this is what has raised ire among some stakeholders including political parties; the matter needs to be resolved sooner than later to erase any suspicions. Government and ZCCM-IH must go all out to explain this matter so that all stakeholders can move on. Surprisingly, gold in Zambia was discovered many years ago, yet the hullabaloo is just erupting now. This was sparked when residents in Mwinilunga swarmed the area near Kasenseli River after it was discovered that the place had rich deposits. In fact, gold deposits are in Mwembeshi area, Mumbwa, Kapiri Mposhi – Kipushi zone, Rufunsa, Mkushi and some areas in Eastern Province. Zambians should fully exploit the precious metal now instead of raising the dust when a foreign firm moves in to start mining. Therefore, Zambians must hold together and seek to exploit the resource instead of throwing mud at each other. Gold price per gram is now fetching $54.84, which translates into $54,836.31 per kilogramme and therefore it is highly lucrative. Gold is indeed useful precious mineral. Among other uses, gold is used in the manufacturing of electronic devices because it has excellent conductive properties and resists corrosion, making it a reliable mode of transmitting tiny electrical currents that modern electronic devices us From smartphones, calculators and GPS units, to larger appliances like televisions, gold plays a part in production, usually within printed circuit boards. One standard laptop Gold is the most malleable metal as only one gramme of the precious metal can be hammered into a sheet that covers a square metre. Malleability is a measure of how easily an object can be pressed into a shape, usually thin sheets. It is said that gold is so malleable that it can be beaten into a transparent sheets, which are used in gilding ornaments, lettering, and creating edgings on ceramics, glass, paper and textiles. Therefore, citizens must get into action and refrain from participating in ‘talk-shows.’

between the Plaintiffs through restricting KCM from receiving supply from Zesco pending determination of the matter. In a statement of claim filed in the Lusaka High Court, Zesco stated that it entered into a Bulk Supply Agreement (BSA) with CEC on November 21, 1997 which expired and lapsed on March 31, this year. It said that the BSA had not been renewed. KCM on the other hand, stated that it entered into a Power Supply Agreement (PSA) with CEC around March 2000 and expired on March 31, 2020.

“By letter of Intent dated April 17, 2020, KCM and CEC agreed to extend the PSA up to May 31, 2020. KCM will further aver that it owns mining operations at its Nkana, Konkola and Nchanga Integrated Business Units (IBUs) which requires stable and bulk electricity supply for the operations of the said mines and is interconnected to CEC Network. “CEC’s loss of its preferential status as bulk off taker of Zesco’s electricity affected CEC’s capacity to ensure stable and bulk electricity supply to KCM,” read the statement of claim.

KCM stated that in an effort to ensure stable and reliable power for its operations, it executed a binding Term Sheet with Zesco on May 22, this year, effective June 1, 2020. They explained that the execution of the Term Sheet relied on ZESCO supplying power to KCM using CEC’s Transmission and Distribution lines. Zesco and KCM are further seeking an order restraining CEC from effecting or taking steps to take out any supply units, lines or delivery points to KCM as they are Common Carriers as declared under S.l.

Zambia wants more women 11 schools in Mambwe in limbo in UN peace-keeping ops By GRACE CHAILE LESOETSA

By KALOBWE BWALYA

ZAMBIA has reaffirmed commitment to the United Nations (UN) peace and security efforts around the globe with a call for full inclusion of women in peacekeeping programmes. Zambia’s permanent representative to UN, Ngosa Simbyakula, said global peace would only be achieved with the full and effective participation of women because the female gender had the ability to improve peacekeeping operations. Dr Simbyakula applauded efforts of the women peacekeepers undertaking their mandate, especially those in the frontline during the COVID-19 global pandemic. This is contained in a statement issued by First Secretary for press at the permanent mission of Zambia to the UN in New York, Wallen Simwaka. The UN envoy said this during a virtual side event to mark the International Day of Peacekeeping under the theme: “Women in Peacekeeping; a Key to Peace.” “Zambia feels honored to be one of the pilot countries selected under the Elsie Initiative, and upon implementation, will increase the deployment of uniformed women,” he said. And United Nations (UN) Secretary General António Guterres was concerned that women have continued to represent only 6 per cent of uniformed military, police, and justice and corrections personnel in field missions.

ELEVEN community schools in Mambwe district have not reopen for examination classes due to lack of Covid-19 protective requirements. District Education Board Secretary (DEBS), Theresa Ngoma, said the Community Schools with pupils in grade seven examination classes could not afford soap among other requirements needed to prevent the spread of the disease. However, the schools located in the remotest areas were expected to reopen soon after Neria’s Investments Limited donated some materials. The donated items included 60 hand washing buckets,liquid soap, 60 x 2.5 litres of hand sanitiser and 2,500 face masks. Neria’s Investments general manager, Martin Chaikatisha, said the children needed everyone’s support to grow into health citizens. “We felt obligated to respond to a request of the need to assist children in examination classes with materials to fight Covid-19. Eastern Province is our stronghold in terms of agriculture business, so we said let’s go and protect our children,” Mr Chaikatish said. Mr Zulu, who is also Eastern Province Minister, said Government would continue to partner with the private sector to ensure every child despite the locality got back to class.

By SILUMESI MALUMO THE country’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) would improve if all gold sites are managed by the locals, a mine expert Edward Simukonda has said. Mr Simukonda said it was gratifying that Kasenseli gold site would be 100 percent owned by the locals. He said in an interview yesterday, it was important that all gold sites were managed by the local investors for the money to continue circulating in the economy. The mine expert said the country’s economy could only thrive if locals had an upper hand in terms of mining operations. “We have been blessed with this lucrative mineral, so it needs to be well harnessed for the country’s economic wheels to improve. “It’s a good move that government has taken a step in ensuring that the Kasenseli gold area is fully managed by the local investors. I feel that if all gold mines are taken over by the local investors this is when the country can benefit massively from the resource,” Mr Simukonda said. Recently ZCCM-IH chief executive officer Mabvuto Chipata said the Kasenseli gold area would be 100 percent managed by the Zambians. Mr Chipata said the investment holding had partnered with the local gold mining licence holders and the chiefdoms to mine the resource.

COMMERCIAL BANKS …rolls out ZCCM-IH INVESTS $250, 000 IN GOLD LAB BUOYANT K44 billion 6

By BUUMBA CHIMBULU

VER K44 billion has been lent out to various sectors of the economy and individuals by both Commercial Banks and Non-financial institutions to ensure continued operations. Out of this amount, K36 billion has been lent out by Commercial Banks while K8 billion is from the Non-Financial institutions. Commercial Banks will always be there to support all key economic sectors in the country, says Bankers Association of Zambia (BAZ) Chief Executive Officer, Leonard Mwanza. Mr Mwanza said in an interview that commercial banks remained committed to offering support to the growth sectors of the economy.

THE 2019 Coronavirus, also commonly known as COVID-19, has caused an imaginable crisis for the global economy and markets. With an escalating number of confirmed cases globally, the World Health Organization has declared the virus to be a global pandemic, meaning that it will have a sustained global impact. Many countries' economies already were slowing before the pandemic, and now COVID-19 threatens to push them into a steep recession. In our region no economy has been spared and even at global level the strongest economies have not be spared. In response to this crisis, governments and Central Banks worldwide have enacted sweeping and sizable fiscal and monetary stimulus measures to counteract the disruption caused by coronavirus, with a number of Central Banks cutting their policy rates The effects of COVID-19 on the Zambian economy have been compounded by pre-existing macroeconomic challenges in the country. These include subdued economic growth, heightened fiscal deficits, increased inflation levels, and increased pressure on the country’s debt obligations, coupled with dwindling international reserves. The outbreak of the pandemic has taken a negative toll on households, MSMEs, and businesses. The negative impact of the pandemic has led to a drop in both economic activities and income levels for households, MSMEs and corporates, , which in turn, is posing to threaten the well-being of the financial sector, through the anticipated increase in non-performing loans (NPLs)..

WITH VIRUS CRISIS RECEDING, POOR-NATION DEBT RELIEF STALLS A DEBT-RELIEF initiative for poor nations is losing momentum as credit premiums narrow and lenders balk at the complexities of a concerted halt in payments. Private creditors won’t rush to join a G-20 led effort to ease debt burdens, while borrowers may also be wary of joining the plan as their economies heal after the coronavirus-led selloff, potentially improving market access for issuers. Defaults may still pick up in the next 12 months, but will likely stay below levels that prompt a capital exodus from emerging markets. Small nations that are in difficulty will be left to negotiate terms on their own, according to Gabriele Foa, a London-based money manager at Algebris U.K. Ltd. “If creditors weren’t jumping on the relief bandwagon in March when things looked worse, they are unlikely to do it now,” said Foa, who helps manage the Algebris Macro Credit Fund, which has outperformed 95% of peers in the last year. “Some restructurings will need to happen, but the way things are shaping up it’s going to be on a case-by-case basis.” For some, the process has already started. Angola, Africa’s second-biggest oil producer, said it’s in talks with some of its crude-importing partners to reprofile its debt. Zambia appointed Lazard Freres to advise it on restructuring external liabilities. Emerging-market dollar bonds handed investors a 5.8% return in May, according to a Bloomberg Barclays index, the best performance since December 2008. Stimulus engines revving up across the developed world have helped erase more than half the extra premium demanded since the start of the crisis. “At the end of the day, the biggest help the U.S. is giving emerging markets is quantitative easing,” Foa said. “Not everyone is back on the market, but the speed with which a few issuers have regained market access has been very impressive.” That’s helping to tip the balance toward waiting for a further recovery by emerging-market governments, instead of making a call for immediate help. Bondholders, some of whom have organized a group to represent them in talks, would also be in a better position should the relief initiative stall. “Creditor groups are formed by investors and thus less likely to make concessions,” Foa said.-Bloomberg

Australia enters first recession in 29 years after blow from bushfires and coronavirus Treasurer Josh Frydenberg warns of ‘difficult days ahead’ as March quarter GDP shrinks on impact of conjoined catastrophes AUSTRALIA has entered its first recession for 29 years after the economy went backwards by 0.3% in the March quarter, with the impact of bushfires and the coronavirus ending the nation’s extraordinary, uninterrupted run of economic growth. The treasurer, Josh Frydenberg, told reporters a recession was inevitable after the Australian Bureau of Statistics released national accounts showing gross domestic product fell 0.3% in the quarter. The economy grew only 1.4% over the past 12 months, which is the weakest performance since the global financial crisis. While Frydenberg said the contraction in Australia was less severe than many other countries battling the economic shock associated with the coronavirus pandemic, he warned people to brace for “difficult days ahead” because the June quarter results would be worse than the impact felt in March. Despite being the first treasurer in nearly three decades to preside over a recession, Frydenberg insisted Australia had avoided “an economist’s version of Armageddon” during the pandemic because the lockdowns had successfully flattened the curve of Covid-19

infections, and the public health restrictions had been accompanied by significant income support. Frydenberg said the government would provide its own comprehensive economic update in late July when it unveiled the results of the review of the wage subsidy jobkeeper – delaying its planned mini-budget by a month. The treasurer also hinted the government might either reduce the wage subsidy from a flat payment of $1,500, or provide differential rates depending on a worker’s income. The latest national accounts document the economic impact of conjoined catastrophes – the summer bushfires, and the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. The ABS data shows household consumption fell 1.1% – the first fall since December 2008 – and the largest quarterly decline in 34 years. While consumers increased their spending on goods – hoarding supplies in anticipation of a lockdown of all non-essential services – spending on services fell 2.4% with the introduction of social distancing restrictions and travel bans in February and March. Spending on transport services, hotels, cafes and restaurants fell off a cliff during the March quarter. -The Guardian

A CALL FOR MULTICULTURAL RECONCILIATION By an anonymous Chinese THE time we are currently faced with is rife with increasingly challenging uncertainty, conflict, misconception, scepticism and unease, giving rise to xenophobia, turbulence, misattribution and a lack of introspection. Implications of COVID-19 in the past several months have brought grief to many, financial difficulties to many, and enormous changes to the daily lives of us all. As a member of the Chinese community in Zambia, I feel for and sympathize with surroundings equally in weal and woe regardless of nationality, being rancorous when I received news regarding death of my three innocent compatriots at Makeni, in anguish when I heard the quarantined workers cry foul, being upset not to routinely meet their family. I may assert that, as a member of the global family, Chinese are neither cold-blooded nor indifferent to sufferings resulted from the COVID-19 epidemic. Chinese in the last few months launched the largest global humanitarian operation. Numerous Chinese companies and associations passionately donated medical supplies and equipment such as surgical masks, sanitizers and protective gowns that are badly needed in Zambia. Chinese are always ready to reciprocate acts of friendship and kindness from Zambians. However, misinformation

has become a rampant vicious weapon targeting the Chinese community due to what I may reckon is populism. Yesterday, I was astonished to know one of my colleagues reportedly made to be a ZNBC photographer, which is fabricated by some social media and untrue. Invalid misinformation taints the truth, leading individuals to discard authentic information, and impede resolving conflict. Indiscriminate use of fake news, on the other hand, may reduce the credibility of either media houses or social media operators, inducing individuals even to discard the truth. I express gratitude to front line medics, as well as care workers and those carrying out essential roles at the border, who selflessly continue their day-to-day duties outside the home in support of us all. It is a critical moment in which we put aside cultural differences and respond to COVID-19 through innovative measures regardless of its origin, put into action the “One Zambia, One Nation” initiative. In the years to come, everyone will be able to take pride in how they collectively responded to this challenge hand in hand beyond race and nation, rather than a memory of disorder, hatred or mutual bombard. The joint efforts between Zambia and China in a common endeavour, using the great advances of science and our instinctive compassion to heal, will finally prevail against all the odds.

People should venture into agriculture Dear editor,

Agriculture is business and it is no longer the preserve of the old people. This is because anyone regardless of the age can venture into agribusiness or farming business as it were. There is a misconception that people who are in formal employment are the ones who should venture into agriculture. The crux of the matter is that whether someone is working or not, the person can go into farming as an alternative source o income

apart from the disposable income someone earns from the gainful employment. Agriculture can be categorized into crop farming, animal husbandry, poultry, horticulture to mention but a few. Crop farming is one which involves the growing of crops such as maize and vegetables among others. Animal husbandry is the type of farming which deals with the rearing of animals like cattle, goats, pigs and sheep among others. Poultry is the type of farming which deals with the keeping

of chickens, guinea fowls, ducks, pigeons and geese. Horticulture is the form of farming which involves the growing of fruits such as oranges, lemons, mangoes, guavas, pineapples, watermelons and avocados among others. The individual has the right to choose the type of farming he or she wishes to venture into according to one’s preference. The Zambian government has put agriculture at the centre of the country’s economy. As such, there is

therefore need for the young people and the old alike to venture into agriculture which is a lucrative business. When people venture into agriculture, they become financially empowered and they are able to meet their daily needs. You can start on a small scale and grow the venture with passage of time. Agriculture business or agribusiness is the way to go if you want to succeed and the time to start is now. ELEMIYA PHIRI Lusaka.

‘REOPEN HIGHER LEARNING INSTITUTIONS By MUYANI SHINJABALE

HE process of reopening tertiary institutions must be expedited while enforcing strict adherence to preventive measures, former Copperbelt University Students Union President Zacks Ndumba has advised.

Mr Ndumba who is a former student in the School of Medicine at CBU said the re-opening universities and other tertiary institutions was taking too long. He said Government should reopen the tertiary institutions while enforcing strict observance of preventive measures through mandatory hand-washing, use of face-

masks, sanitising and sitting arrangements which promoted social distancing. Universities and colleges, he noted, were among vital institutions which could be negatively affected by such a prolonged interruption. Mr Ndumba said in Ndola yesterday that there was need for tangible communi-

cation at this point indicating when exactly universities were re-opening. He said it was significant to realise the undeniable fact that the Covid-19 pandemic was not subsiding any time soon. He said while preventive measures were being enforced to curtail the spread of the epidemic, it was important to put

into serious consideration the detrimental effects emanating from such measures. Mr Ndumba said the idea was to prevent scholars from getting their academic focus derailed in the process of the long closure. "It should be borne in mind that prolonged stay away from studies at the level of tertiary

CONSULTING people around you is one attribute of good Leadership which opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) leader Chishimba Kambwili lacks, former NDC Copperbelt Provincial Youth Chairman Bernard Mwila has said. Mr Mwila said the NDC leader has no regard for those under him and would only listen to a few individuals in the party like his worker from Mwamona Engineering Company, Christopher Mutale who is the National Security and Mobilisation chairman. But when contacted for a comment, Mr Kambwili said he could not waste time responding to a political nonentity like Mr Mwila because he was not at his level of politics. Mr Mwila, who resigned from the NDC to join PF at the weekend, said an interview that did not appreciate the leadership of the youth apart from his nephew Charles Kabwita, who is the National Youth Chairman. He said he had nothing against NDC president Chishimba Kambwili, but wanted to work with President Lungu and PF party under the youthful Leadership of Nathan Chanda the Provincial Chairman Copperbelt '' I have decided to join the Boat. Nathan Chanda is my youthful friend who has inspired me in his leadership. I talk to him on many issues affecting the youth. Dr Kambwili does not appreciate the leadership of the youth apart from his nephew Charles Kabwita who is the National Youth Chairman. "Listening to people under you is one good at attribute of great Leadership which NDC leader lacks. The problem in NDC is that when a new person comes, he will be taken to the highest and even appointed as boss. But in response, Mrr Kambwili said Mr Mwila was not at his level in terms of politics and he could not waste time responding to him. He said Mr Mwila was an indiscipline young man and had left NDC because the party did not entertain indiscipline.

LESOTHO FORMER FIRST LADY ARRESTED IN MURDER CASE - POLICE LESOTHO’S former first lady Maesaiah Thabane was arrested on Wednesday over the murder of the previous wife of her husband, former prime minister Thomas Thabane, police said. Lesotho’s Appeal Court revoked her bail last week on suspicion that procedure was not followed correctly when her bail was granted. Thabane was transferred to court, where she wore a fur

coat and black protective anticoronavirus mask, a Reuters witness said. The date for a new bail application was set as June 6. Maesaiah Thabane has been charged with ordering the killing of Lipolelo Thabane, her love rival, who was shot dead near her home in Lesotho’s capital, Maseru, in June, 2017. Maesaiah Thabane was released on bail in February. Lipolelo was estranged from

Thomas Thabane at the time of the murder. The case had been causing growing political instability in the independent mountain kingdom of 2 million people encircled by South Africa before Thomas Thabane resigned as prime minister last month. He is also a suspect in the murder. He denies any involvement and has yet to be formally charged.-Africa.cgtn

SA court rules lockdown restrictions ‘irrational’

A SOUTH African court has found some coronavirus lockdown regulations imposed by the government “unconstitutional and invalid”. The judge picked out rules around funerals, informal workers and amount of exercise as “irrational”. The government was given14 days to overhaul the regulations. South Africa initially had some of the world’s most restrictive lockdown measures. The country has 35,812 confirmed cases and 755 deaths. The case was filed by the Liberty Fighters Network and the Hola Bona Renaissance Foundation. The high court in the capital, Pretoria, ruled that the regulations were not connected to slowing the rate of infection or limiting its spread. “The regulations... in a substantial number of instances are not rationally connected to the objectives of slowing the rate of infection or limiting the spread thereof,” the written judgement read. Judge Norman Davis argued it was wrong to allow people to travel to attend funerals but not to earn their livelihoods by street trading, as many South Africans do. The government said it will review the regulations but in the meantime the current lockdown regulations will apply. - BBC

George Floyd death: More large protests in US but violence falls

TENS of thousands of people have demonstrated, mainly peacefully, across the United States for an eighth night following the death of African-American George Floyd in police custody. One of the biggest protests, joined by Floyd’s relatives, took place in his hometown of Houston, Texas. Many defied curfews in several cities, imposed after violence and looting in some districts on Monday night. The Pope has issued a call for racism not to be ignored. “We cannot tolerate or turn a blind eye to racism,” he said. But he also condemned the violence: “Nothing is gained by violence and so much is lost.” The Floyd case has reignited deep-seated anger over police killings of black Americans and racism. Demonstrators have taken to the streets - not only to express their outrage at the treatment of Mr Floyd - but to condemn police brutality against black Americans more widely. There have been calls, and a proposal from a US lawmaker, to end the qualified immunity of police which prevents civil legal action against them. - BBC
