AMBIAN tanker drivers have parked their trucks in protest against failure by oil marketing companies (OMCs) to offer them 50 per cent contracts as pronounced by Government. And Energy Minister, Mathew Nkhuwa warned of stern action against oil marketing companies that would not follow the government directive to give 50 percent of contracts to local transporters. A representative of the drivers, Billian Manengo confirmed that the drivers had decided to park their trucks until Government addresses their plight. Mr Manengo said that

TANKER DRIVERS PROTEST …Park trucks, demanding 50p.c. contracts despite their cry, Government had not been helpful and that foreign companies had continued enjoying full contracts to transport fuel into the country at the expense of Zambians. "We are tired of calling on Government to help, so we have decided to down tools until Government listens to us," he said. Mr Manengo has refuted claims by OMCs that local transporters were more expensive than foreign transporters. He said that OMCs

wanted to compel a fuel price increase, but were told that Government would not hike prices, hence OMCs have opted to engage cheap labour. Yesterday morning, drivers gathered at TAZAMA fuel depot and blocked other trucks from offload. According to an eye witness, Robert Chikatula, the drivers blocked foreign trucks from offloading. Mr Chikatula said that the drivers had threatened not to go back on the road until government addresses their issue. Recently, Energy Minister

Matthew Nkhuwa announced that Government had implemented the 50 per cent quota to be given to local transporters but OMCs were not offering the local transporters. But OMCs president, Kafula Mubanga, said that foreign transporters were cheaper than local transporters. Dr Mubanga local fuel transporters did not have capacity to transport 50 percent of the petroleum on the market and that it was cheaper to use foreign trucks as compared to Zambian trucks.

Archbishop Banda gets backing on allowing receiving of gifts By OLIVER SAMBOKO ZAMBIANS should not be subjected to hunger and suffering when aid is available just because the country will be holding general election this year, the Bishops Council of Zambia (BCZ) has said. BCZ general secretary

Bishop Abel Kaela said the Archbishop of Lusaka, Alick Banda was right in allowing Catholics under his jurisdiction to be accepting gifts from government despite this being an election period. Bishop Kaela said it was wrong for the church to reject donations from government and well-wishers on grounds

that such gifts would be seen as inducement for support in the coming elections. He said the Bishops Council of Zambia does not agree with assertions that the donations being given to the church are meant to influence Christian voters in favor of the party in power. He said as far as the Bishops Council of Zambia

was concerned those donating to the church were doing it out of love and care for the children of God. "Our view is that there is no season when the church rejects gifts for whatever reason because God does not refuse the church to accept donations from Government or any other well-wishers," he said.

‘Eligibility debate is dead issue’ By OLIVER SAMBOKO NO amount of propaganda or intimidation will stop President Edgar Lungu from participating in the August 12, presidential election because he legitimately qualifies to run for his second term, PF Lusaka Province media coordinator Edwin Lifwekelo and Kanyama aspiring MP, Chris Changwereza have said. Mr Lifwekelo said in an interview that President Lungu is going for his second term and insinuations that he is heading for a third term are misplaced and a dangerous recipe for political violence and anarchy. He said whether the UPND and its surrogates like it or not, President Lungu will be on the presidential ballot this year. And Mr Changwereza said it was unfortunate that many learned people were compromised and misleading the public on the eligibility issue when it was clear

Mr Lifwekelo President Lungu had served only one term as defined by the constitution. He said those with issues with what the constitution states on the matter, should start asking for an amendment rather than waste time debating eligibility of President Lungu when this was clear that he qualifies to contest elections. And Mr Lifwekelo said the PF was aware that the UPND was using frustrated individuals like Mr John Sangwa and Mr Musa Mwenye to mislead the public that President Lungu does not qualify to seek re-election.

Levy Mall standards falling? By OLIVER SAMBOKO SOME tenants at the Levy Business Park Mall in Lusaka have complained of falling standards and asked the landlords to ensure all service and maintenance works are paid for. A Daily Nation check at the Mall found that some tenants were not happy with the services because service providers have not been paid for close to seven months and this was negatively affecting the work. Speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of being victimized, the tenants complained that the Mall’s standards had been falling because of lack of funding to service providers. “Standards at Levy Business Park mall in Lusaka have gone down due to none payment of fees to service providers.

Fake NGOS slammed From page 1

Mr Mwanza said it was hypocrisy of the highest order for NGOs to keep quiet over the missing Hatembos when it was the first time for Zambia to experience such an abduction. He said NGOs were only there to discredit efforts Government was making in uplifting standards of living for citizens while ignoring serious national matters. “Our NGOs only speak out when an issue is against government, but where the opposition is implicated, they keep quiet,” said Mr Mwanza. And Mr Mulemwa challenged the NonGovernmental Organisation Coordinating Committee (NGOCC) to speak out over the abduction of the Pheluna Hatembo who has been seperated from her 35 year old cerebral palsy daughter. He said NGOCC should have been in the forefront demanding the release of the Choma family especially that they left behind a sick daughter.

Mr Mulemwa said the lack of patriotism by some NGOs was a big blow to national unity as citizens were denied fair representations. It is almost two months since Pheluna Hatembo and her brother, Milton, disappeared and now her cerebral palsy afflicted 35-year-old daughter is ill, vomiting blood and pus. The daughter, Nasilele Nyambe, was last week escorted to the Choma General Hospital by her elder sister Abigail who pleaded with the abductors to release their mother. The last time they saw their mother was when she was bundled to Lusaka where she signed a statement condemning her lawyers for indicating an intention to appeal against a ruling that dispossessed them of their 200 hectare farm to Mr Hakainde Hichililema. The family has since disputed the “withdrawal” of the appeal, stating that they had sat and decided to appeal against the High Court judgment.

Lafarge, Sinoma Cement fined From page 1

CCPC Senior Public Relations Officer, Namukolo Kasumpa said the cement firms were expected to pay 10 percent of their annual turnovers for the year 2019 and another 10 percent of their 2020 annual turnovers. Ms Kasumpa said investigations established that company representatives from Mpande Limestone Limited, Dangote Cement Zambia Limited and Lafarge Zambia Plc held discussions which resulted in a pricing philosophy to stop cement price reductions. She said the investigations also established that the cement companies had agreed on a flat rebate of K3 sometime in December 2019. Ms Kasumpa however said Dangote Cement Zambia Limited was granted full leniency for having cooperated with the CCPC during investigations. She said CCPC ordered Lafarge Zambia Plc, Dangote Cement Zambia Limited and Mpande Limestone Limited to revert to the pre-cartel prices ranging between US$4.50 and US$ 5 for one year. This is from the date of receipt of the

board decision pursuant to Section 59 (3) (b) of the Act. Ms Kasumpa explained that Lafarge Zambia Plc, Dangote Cement Zambia Limited, Mpande Limestone Limited should submit monthly average ex-works prices and any price adjustments be indexed to the exchange rate and be submitted to the Commission for review. But Lafarge Zambia said it was surprised to learn that the Commission had concluded that it contravened the Competition and Consumer Protection Act despite denying any wrongdoing. The company said in a statement that since the initiation of the Commission’s investigation in January 2020, it consistently denied the allegations of its engagement in restrictive business practices in the cement sector. “While Lafarge Zambia will continue to cooperate with the Commission, it intends to exercise its rights to appeal the decision. Meanwhile, Ms Kasumpa said the board of Commissioners dropped charges against Zambezi Portland Cement Limited after it was established that it was not part of the anti-competitive trade.

MWEETWA’

By NATION REPORTER

CORNELIUS Mweetwa must be taught a bitter lesson by the electorate by not voting for him in the August polls for trying to make fools of the people through a gimmick designed to portray him as most favoured candidate, the Young African Leaders Initiative (YALI) has said. Inside sources revealed that Mr Mweetwa sponsored a group of youths to demand that he rescinds his decision not to re-contest the Choma Central parliamentary seat in the August 12 elections to create a picture that he was the most wanted candidate. YALI president Andrew Ntewewe however said Mr Mweetwa was undermining the calibre of electorates in Choma by thinking they could be hoodwinked by simple gimmicks. Mr. Ntewewe said it was an insult for Mr Mweetwa to insinuate that he was the only worthy candidate to represent the people of Choma in parliament. He called on Choma residents to teach Mr Mweetwa a bitter lesson by not voting for him in the upcoming elections. Controversy has emerged after Mr Mweetwa’s gimmick to portray himself as the most popular candidate was exposed. On Sunday, Mr Mweetwa announced that he would not re-contest the Choma seat which he had held for the past two decades on the pretext that he wanted to concentrate on taking UPND president Hakainde Hichilema to State House.

DEFENDING THE WEAK DEFENDING the most vulnerable in society is often a thankless task for which the reward in most instances is hostility. Over the years, we have not been afraid to speak for the vulnerable in the country and for this, we have even been attacked with petrol bombs. But this has not stopped us from being the voice of the voiceless, who have no one to speak out for them or defend their rights. Those in a position to help prefer to expend their energies on the privileged few for that is where they are rewarded – with monetary gifts, business opportunities and contracts. The disappearance of two members of the Hatembo family over their Kalomo farm has exposed the biased nature of civil society organisations, that they are not there for the poor. Their attitude has exposed the hypocrisy that exists in the country. How could they be quiet over the manner in which Pheluna Hatembo and her brother Milton have disappeared and have not been seen for over two months? Their disappearance is something that has never happened in Zambia. In other parts of the world, people being abducted from the streets and not being seen again is a common feature. But that should not be allowed in Zambia. Keeping quiet when such things occur as in the case of the Hatembos could be a harbinger of worse things to come. Non-Governmental Organisations were tripling over themselves to condemn the government over the unexplained killings of a public prosecutor and a UPND cadre last December during a fracas when Mr Hakainde Hichilema, the party’s president was called for questioning by police. The case of the Hatembos is also related to Mr Hichilema. They lost a case in court in which their 200-hectare farm was deemed to belong to Mr Hichilema. And the last time Pheluna’s children saw her was when she was bundled to Lusaka where she signed a statement condemning her lawyers for indicating an intention to appeal against a ruling that dispossessed them of their farm. The family has since disputed the “withdrawal” of the appeal, stating that they had sat and decided to appeal against the High Court judgment. We feel that civil society organisations have failed the Hatembos, and so have the Zambia Police. The Hatembos were produced at an organised media briefing in Choma and have still not returned to their family. Citizens Democratic Party (CDP) president, Robert Mwanza and Zambian DNA spokesperson, Spuki Mulemwa are right to question why NGOs have been silent over the disappearance of the Hatembo family members. The two said in separate interviews that despite some of the family members who were abducted being female, some NGOs had gone completely mute and blind. As Mr Mwanza said, it was hypocrisy of the highest order for NGOs to keep quiet over the missing Hatembos when it was the first time for Zambia to experience such an abduction. Citizens Democratic Party president, Robert Mwanza and Zambian DNA spokesperson, Spuki Mulemwa questioned why NGOs had been silent over the disappearance of the Hatembo family in Choma about two months ago. The two said in separate interviews that despite some of the family members who were abducted being female, some NGOs had given the matter a blind eye and deaf ear. Mr Mwanza said it was hypocrisy that NGOs were only there to discredit efforts Government was making in uplifting standards of living for citizens while ignoring other serious national matters. Are CSOs quiet because the UPND president Mr Hichilema is linked to the case – in a negative manner – thus not being keen to “bite the hand that feeds them?” What a shame!

PURSUING JUSTICE AND EQUITY WITH INTERGRITY

GOVT MUST LIBERALISE POWER SUPPLY

By OLIVER SAMBOKO

GOVERNMENT should consider liberalising transmission and distribution of electricity to allow independent power producers (IPPs) sell their power to the end user directly aimed at spurring more investment in the sector, energy expert Victor Hazemba has said. Mr Hazemba suggested that in order to attract investment, Government should come up with a policy to an end Zesco monopoly in electricity

…allow private sector players to sell power to cunsumers

distribution chain. This way, he said, would result in more companies coming to Zambia to set up solar and coal powered electricity power stations which would help supplement the hydro electricity produced by Zesco. He said allowing the IPPs to sell their electricity to the end user, would also result

in Zambians having access to electricity because of the competition that will be created. “What is happening currently where only Zesco is allowed to supply electricity to the end user is disadvantaging a lot of Zambians who needs electricity but can have it because Zesco is not able to connect them due to challenges,” he said.

Mr Hazemba also said the continued antagonism over electricity tariffs between Government and the independent power producers (IPPs) has potential to discourage foreign investment in the energy sector. Mr Hazemba said there is need to bring harmony in the sector so as to attract more investment. i

Lungu ready for the first Covid-19 jab Lawyer Inambao locked up after bail is revoked

Dr Masisi, who earlier held private talks with President Lungu, was in the country for a one-day working visit. President Lungu said he stood ready to receive the first Covid-19 vaccine to reassure sceptics that the vaccine was safe and effective. He said Zambian was faced with the battle against vaccine scepticism but he was ready to take the first jab to show Zambians that “it is safe to take.” The President however said Government would not force the citizens to get vaccinated as the programme in Zambia would be rolled out on a voluntary basis.

Child abuse laws to be stiffened By OLIVER SAMBOKO

the table of the House on March 26, 2021, committee chairperson who is also UPND Kalabo MP Chinga Miyutu informed the house that there is need for fast tracking sexual violence cases including rape and defilement. He said the speedy disposal of cases involving sexually

abused children helps the victim to begin the healing process quickly. Mr Miyutu also said the fast track courts designed to specifically deal with sexual offences will greatly reduce the anxiety suffered by victims as they would go through the court process in a relatively short period of time.

A LAWYER, Nathaniel Inambao, accused of stealing a dead man’s benefits was yesterday detained at Ridgeway police station after his bail was revoked. Inambao, aged 56, of Lusaka West is charged with one count of theft by agent. It is alleged that on March 20 last year in Lusaka, Inambao was instructed to pursue the benefit of the deceased, Namunji Poloto, who was an employee of Zesco. Inambao in the process allegedly stole K880, 000 cash which he was entrusted to pay or deliver to Willie Mulemwa being the deceased’s personal representative. He however pleaded not guilty to the charge. During trial, Inambao absconded two court sittings of March 22 and March 29, 2021 prompting the court to issue a bench warrant against him. When the matter came up yesterday, Inambao, who appeared before Magistrate Mwaka Mikalile told the court that he had absconded the two sittings because he went to South Africa and his passport had been stolen. Inambao told the court that he reported the theft to police but did not produce the same to court. He told the court that the passport was however found and he presented it to the court. After his explanation, one of his sureties informed the court that he was withdrawing from being the accused’s surety and the court granted the application. Inambao then asked Ms Mikalile to grant him bail in the interest of justice and that the offence he was facing was bailable. He was granted a K5, 000 cash bail and also ordered to provide two sureties who would be bound in the sum of K50, 000

Maamba Collieries denies owing ex-workers By GRACE CHAILE LESOETSA MAAMBA Collieries Limited says it does not owe the 52 former workers pension money amounting to over K6 million. The coal mining firm has told the court that the 52 ex workers’ pension was determined in its favour by the Supreme Court in the matter between Kennedy Kayombo Kapalu and 340 others vs Maamba Collieries appeal. In the High court, it was a case in Pharoah Miyoba and others vs Maamba Collieries under cause 2007/HL/45. Mr James Chinene suing on behalf of 51 others who were retrenched in 1998, wants the Lusaka High Court to order Maamba Collieries Limited to pay K6,182,620.69 being total pension dues. They are also claiming damages and interest on the monies. The 52 stated that they were retrenched in 1998 and at the time, they were below the age of 55 years, therefore not qualified to receive their pension contributions. They said that upon immediate employment, they joined the Zambia State Insurance Company (ZSIC) Pension Scheme which was a compulsory requirement for all employees. Mr Chinene said that an inquiry with ZSIC Pension Scheme showed that their money was paid to Maamba Collieries Limited.

The coal mining firm has told the court that the 52 ex workers’ pension was determined in its favour by the Supreme Court in the matter between Kennedy Kayombo Kapalu and 340 others vs Maamba Collieries appeal. The plaintiffs said they had not received any response or explanation from the company over the matter despite reminders. The 52 allege that Maamba Collieries Limited has refused or neglected to pay them their dues. In defence Maamba Collieries said the insurance scheme was a voluntary occupational pension scheme and that the former workers were at liberty to collect their pension contributions immediately after retrenchment. It also stated that only employees who elected to join the pension had deductions in respect of pension contribution. Maamba Collieries argued that the matter could not be brought to court because too much time has passed (statue bar).

TOURISM WORKERS WANT PRIORITY IN COVID-19 VACCINE By OLIVER SAMBOKO WORKERS in the tourism and hospitality industry should also be prioritised for the Covid-19 vaccination as they are also among those at high risk of contracting the disease, says tourism expert Rose Musonda. Government intends to rollout Covid-19 vaccination on over three million citizens, among them health care workers, seniors and vulnerable citizens, teachers and traditional leaders. They would be vaccinated under the first phase of the UNICEF funded free covax programme. Ms Musonda said health and safety of tourism workers should remain a priority in preparing a strong tourism rebound especially as the most countries were easing the travel restrictions. She said workers in the tourism and hospitality industry were among the occupational groups that were hardest hit by the pandemic. “It’s important to vaccinate employees in the tourism and hospitality sectors because the group of people have a lot of contact with people,” she said.

Mr Mukupa said the UPND leader’s sentiments that International community should come to verify the 2021 voter register in order to ascertain why Southern Province has few voters was typical tribalism. He said in an interview that a leader with a national character would not be crying foul over one province. Mr Mukupa said if Mr Hichilema became a Republican President he would divide Zambians “Why should someone vying for a higher position in the country start talking about votes in a certain region. “As far as I am concerned a leader needs to have a national character. Even when you win an election you need to get

votes across the country,” he said. Mr Mukupa reminded the UPND leader that Southern Province had recorded few voters this year because some had shifted while others had died. “People have been migrating and that tells you that you cannot have same voters like it was in 2016. And moreover we had ghost voters and now the register has been cleaned that is why you see some provinces having few eligible voters,” he said. Meanwhile, Mr Mukupa said the sentiments by Mr Hichilema showed that he had conceded defeat for the August 12 general elections. “All what he is saying clearly shows that he has already accepted that he has lost the elections and nothing else,” he said.

Kalumbila youth commits suicide By JACKSON MAPAPAYI A 28-YEAR-OLD MAN of Kalumbila has committed suicide by hanging himself from a tree, thinking that he had killed his neighbour's child. According to North-Western Province Commissioner of Police, Joe Njase, the incident happened between Monday and Tuesday at Kisasa area and identified the deceased as Golden Kabwiku. "We received a report that Gideon Kabwiku aged 28, of Kisasa that he committed suicide by means of hanging himself on a tree. "Police visited the scene and the deceased person was found hanging on a tree using a shoe lace with protruding tongue," he said. He explained that the reason for hanging himself was that Kabwiku wanted to beat his wife Esther Mushapa aged 24 with a stick but missed her and hit a neighbour’s child Winter Samalapa. He said the child, who is six-years-old, sustained serious facial injuries and fainted there and then which made Kabwiku think that the young boy had died. "So, he committed suicide to avoid the wrath of the law," he said. Mr Njase said the child was alive and admitted to Lumwana District Hospital while Kabwiku’s body has been deposited in the mortuary awaiting burial.

Jumbos invade maize fields in Kazungula By ANDREW MUKOMA ELEPHANTS have invaded some maize fields in Mukuni Village of Kazungula forcing farmers to harvest prematurely. Mr Akakulubelwa Mwilima, one of the farmers whose field had been ravaged, complained that the invasion of elephants in the area has made small scale farmers lose hope of having a good harvest. Mr Mwilima explained that this year the elephants have come earlier than usual June and July period. He said that the arrival of the jumbos and consequently invading people’s maize fields was a concern to the people in Mukuni village. Mr Mwilima said that as a result of the invasion, farmers’ efforts had gone to waste despite receiving favourable rainfall during the 2020/2021 farming season. Mr Mwilima said that the Department of National Parks and Wildlife should put in place sustainable measures to scare away the beasts such as popping firecrackers. He added that the majority of the community members could not afford to acquire the recommended fire crackers because of their limited sources of income. Mr Mwilima called for more community sensitization on how the locals could co-exist with wildlife to prevent future occurrences.

OVERNMENT has developed a rollout plan which Chinawill ensure quick wins for Zambia during the implementation of the African Continental Free Trade Area Agreement (AfCFTA). The rollout plan shows the programmes and activities that are key for implementation of the AfCFTA, says Commerce, Trade and Industry Permanent Secretary, Mushuma Mulenga. Mr Mulenga said the plan was developed in 2020 with the aim to guide the implementation of AfCFTA programmes that could be quick wins in the implementation process of the AfCFTA Agreement. Zambia, he said, was at a time when it needed to firm up strategies to benefit from the AFCFTA . He said this during a workshop to finalise the rollout plan for implementation of

US dollar payments can spur investment in green energy UK envoy HARARE - Allowing investors to get their returns in foreign currency – denominated funds can open floodgates for foreign direct investment in the renewable energy power generation in the country, UK Ambassador to Zimbabwe Melanie Robinson said on Tuesday. She told participants at a virtual multi-stakeholder coalition pushing for low carbon development in Zimbabwe forum that currency stability and payment in US dollars could influence British companies to invest in the renewable energy sector in Zimbabwe. “Getting the independent power producers investment policies right and making commitments to get IPP payments in US dollars is quite important for investors,” Robinson said. “This will allow us to get investment in renewable energy power generation. We also need to raise the visibility of renewable energy

initiatives to the public to help them understand their role in reducing carbon emissions and in protecting the environment.” The Centre for Natural Resource Governance (CNRG) organised the virtual forum to help explore ways and strategies to promote the growth of the use of renewable energy in Zimbabwe. Negative investor perceptions have in the past complicated the country’s prospects to promote inward foreign investments into the country. The government has since 2017 adopted a battery of measures to remove barriers and bottlenecks that had made Zimbabwe unattractive to potential investors. Despite the economic problems facing the country and the huge cost of investing in renewables, the country is making steady progress in terms of the uptake of solar energy by households, large corporates and mining giants. ZERA has processed 39 solar power projects that have capacity to generate up 1,151.87MW, as the country moves to transform its renewable energy generation capacity. The projects require an investment of over $2.3 billion. – THE HERALD, Zimbabwe.

Reprieve for motorists as insurers settle curfew hours claims NAIROBI - Insurance companies will settle claims for accidents that happen during curfew hours, negating an earlier advisory that driving during the curfew hours of between 20 hours and 04 hours could render one’s insurance invalid. The Association of Kenya Insurers (Aki), the lobby for local insurance companies dismissed a statement made by an insurance agents’ lobby that warned motorists from driving past curfew hours as insurers would not settle claims for accidents that take place within these hours. AKI however noted that driving past curfew hours does not warrant an insurance firm to dismiss a claim unless there were other circumstances leading to an accident. The Association of Kenya Professional Insurance agents (AKPIA) had in a statement earlier this week warned motorists’ claim for accidents occurring between 20 hours and 04 hours risked having their insurance claims declared null. “Insurance companies, agencies and brokers, would like to inform you that driving past curfew hours without essential services authorisation or valid emergency reasons could render your motor insurance claim invalid,” said the lobby in the statement on its social media handles, which drew anger from Kenyans who questioned the rationale of insurers taking their money only to change the terms afterwards. AKI however said motorists who have incidents while driving during curfew hours should be treated as normal incidents, adding that the offence of being outside during this times should be dealt with by law enforcement agencies. “Any motor insurance claim that arises during curfew hours cannot be dismissed on the basis of the time of the accident. If you violate curfew hours, then the Police will charge you with that violation,” said AKI. – THE STANDARD, Kenya.

HEFTY HIKE …Fuel prices could reach record highs in April, warns AA

OHANNESBURG - The Automobile Association (AA) expects a further hefty hike in fuel prices in April. It expects the fuel price for April could be in the region of R17.32 per litre for ULP 95 inland. The previous high was R17.08 set in late 2018. Commenting on Tuesday on unaudited month-end fuel price data released by the Central Energy Fund, the AA said petrol is set for a massive increase of 73 cents per litre, an increase of 39 cents for diesel, and 37 cents for illuminating paraffin. Furthermore, the additional

CBK on standby should new Covid-19 rules overwhelm businesses NAIROBI - The Central Bank of Kenya is on standby and ready to offer a remedy to businesses should new containment measures announced by President Uhuru Kenyatta prove to be too much. In a post-Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) briefing on Tuesday, Central Bank Governor Patrick Njoroge noted that things are not looking bad at the moment but should the new measures prove otherwise, remedies such as the loan restructuring could be brought back. President Uhuru Kenyatta last week announced new stringent containment measures with far-reaching consequences on individuals and businesses to help check the spread of the Corona virus now in its third wave. The new measures include a partial lockdown of Nairobi, Machakos, Kajiado, Kiambu and Nakuru counties. Unlike last year when similar measures were announced, the president did not highlight any economic remedy to help workers and businesses that will be affected by the guidelines. Commenting while resetting the benchmark lending rate on Monday, CBK noted that the economy is not badly off noting that the package of policy measures implemented over the last year have protected the economy from substantial decline, and supported the most vulnerable citizens. - THE STANDARD, Kenya.

27 cents to the General Fuel Levy and Road Accident Fund levies announced by Finance Minister Tito Mboweni in February come into effect in April and will add extra costs to every litre of fuel purchased, in addition to the increased monthly adjustment. With the increase to the levies factored in, the AA expects petrol could rise by as much as R1 per litre, and diesel by 66 cents per litre. The levies are not added to the cost of illuminating paraffin. “With the increases to the levies, motorists will, from April, be paying R5.96 per litre of fuel to the GFL and RAF

levies, or between 35 percent and 40 percent to taxes on every litre purchased,” the AA said in a statement. “The minor relief of the pullback in petroleum and the exchange rate will be cold comfort to South Africans reeling from the ongoing economic damage being inflicted as a result of Covid-19, and a decade of economic decline. “The increases to the fuel

prices will have widespread negative consequences for everyone in the country, not just for motorists.” The AA does not regulate or adjust fuel prices in SA, nor does it have any input in how the fuel prices are calculated. Fuel prices are officially calculated and adjusted on the first Wednesday of every month by the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy. – FIN24.

We are one Zambia one nation

Mr Hichilema

SAMMY, THE CRY BABY AT IT AGAIN

Dear Editor, ALLOW me through your newspaper to comment on the dictatorship in UPND which is now confirmed with its authoritarian leadership. It was shocking to listen to former UPND spokesperson Charles Kakoma about being sidelined by party boss, Hakainde Hichilema. Those who had had doubts when others spoke about the tyrant now know that this is real. Everyone has spoken about how this man can use and abandon people. He is a user. And the Patriotic Front continues to be the party of choice, the most democratic and leading as we head to the August 12 polls. Let us treasure the democracy in our party so that we can continue to attract more people into the boat. For surely, who would want to remain with dictatorship leaders in UPND when they can join us in the floating boat and be part of a big PF family. CHRIS CHANGWEREZA, Lusaka.

Dear Editor, MR Hakainde Sammy Hichilema and his UPND have taken their Crying Sessions to another lewvel. They have written to the African Union (AU) and SADC begging for the two international bodies to help escape the impending August 12 electoral bashing. Mr. Hichilema, who is notoriously known for perpetually crying and complaining against everything and everyone has taken his baby-cry habits to the AU and SADC after realising that he has no numbers to win the forthcoming general elections. In his letter to the two international bodies dated March 25h, 2021 Mr. Hichilema has bitterly complained that the number of registered voters in the PF strongholds are too high while the numbers in the three provinces of Southern, Western and NorthWestern provinces where he performed better in the last elections have shrunk. Further, he has accused the Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) of biasness and non-inclusion. Here are the facts: 1. It was Mr. Hichilema himself and UPND that demanded to have a new voters’ register. In 2018, they wrote the Commonwealth claiming that the old voters register had foreign nationals. 2. In line with good governance practices and in line with its tradition, ECZ engaged all the stakeholders before, during and after the voter’s registration process. Even now the ECZ has continued to engage and include all stakeholders in its operations and activities. 3. From 2006, Mr. Hichilema has accused every President and every institution of rigging elections against him. This is a man who has flopped five times against four Presidents and he still accuse everyone of rigging. How? Only him knows. 4. He has realised that he is losing again come August 12 and he has gone into the Excuse Mode, crying and complaining, laying up a litany of baseless accusations against the ECZ so that he uses that as an excuse for his loss. He is trying to hide his loss behind ECZ. It is all a gimmick to hoodwink his supporters and sponsors that the election has been stolen. 5. The ECZ has been holding elections since 1996. It is one of the most credible election bodies in Africa and its record is unrivalled. So to try to taint the image of ECZ in a futile and narcissistic effort to hide one’s own political impotence is unfair and very unpatriotic. ANTONIO MOURINHO MWANZA.

Dear Editor,

Kakoma exit genesis of UPND’s political implosion

THIS business week has seen Zambia’s Kwacha trading in low enthusiasm without the much-needed stamina but it is trading on an unstable mode pivoting on a bad balance and scale against the US Dollar. No wonder the local currency failed to signpost anticipated positive movements as the market was mainly seen subdued by the high levels of participation mainly from the buyers and importers who have triggered high demand for the green currency on the local scene coupled with very low activities from the export sides despite having very attractive copper prices. The Kwacha was anticipated to be starting becoming firmer this time around as we face this global health crisis, and hopes were also emanating on account of successful hosts of the treasury auction bills that could have seen good uptake in subscriptions though most of the treasury bills are under subscribed owing to a number of economic uncertainties. The other problem being the number of speculators in the economy who have rendered Kwacha’s performance in weak spots marked by our poor trade fundamentals especially on the export side which is not striking a good and ideal balance within the Zambian economy. As mentioned, we have some part of speculators within this economy who are hoarding US Dollars due to the destabilisation of China’s manufacturing system, they are anticipating a huge loss to be faced on their businesses so this act being practiced is basically one model towards sustaining on their safety net to cushion on the US Dollar impact globally. On the other hand, we may likely see the Kwacha surging up on account of a huge importer drive as we head towards general elections since most of political campaign materials will be imported pretty soon. Meanwhile, the domestic currency may also likely continue seeing its quarterly-end backdrop of Dollar conversion from players who are committed in meeting up on their quarterly statutory obligations. KELVIN CHISANGA.

THE stage-managed UPND convention which was made to renew and validate the inherent dictatorial culture of Zambia’s most rejected Presidential candidate Hakainde Hichilema and his party has started backfiring. The recent one being the exit of the dependable opposition figure and loyalist who comes from a well-documented political and professional background. The defection of the long standing senior member of UPND Charles Kakoma’s enviable stature is the starting point to the process leading to putting last nail on Mr Hichilema’s political coffin. In his discourse, Mr Kakoma’s public comments have been full of a sense of responsibility and exercised restraint to refrain from any inflammatory language that undermine the unity and peace of the nation. The autocratic nature and self-centredness of Mr Hichilema has now started manifesting and this is the genesis of the political explosion and the wind of continuation for the PF ruler ship is yet to tilt in the direction of PF and President Edgar Lungu who is

HIGH DOLLAR DEMANDS SINKING KWACHA IN PITIABLE CONDITIONS!

Dear Editor,

going for his second term of office. The defection of Mr Kakoma is a testimony enough that the PF has emerged as a brand that has become attractive owing to the pro-poor policies that have been implemented in the era of the Covid-19 pandemic. Going ahead, Mr Hichilema’s political party will start shooting in all directions like a misguided missile and its prospects are virtually irredeemable as Mr Kakoma’s followers will not help but emulate this timely decision. Mr Kakoma is not merely a nonentity as he is demanded, he is a leader of mass following as evidenced by his past portfolios and the immense contribution he made during his tenure as a Member of Parliament. His joining the Patriotic Front is therefore a morale boaster and a great motivation to the patriots who have a strong conviction of being of service to mother Zambia. The defection of Mr Kakoma has vindicated our previous pronouncements that President Lungu’s government has been an all-inclusive unique style of leadership. MARVIN CHANDA MBERI, Lusaka.

"Nkana being a cosmopolitan constituency attracts a lot of people who have intentions of enriching themselves. This is the reason that motivated me to contest the seat. "It is high time people had an MP born and bred in Nkana because they are the only ones who can appreciate the challenges that the people have been going through. People have been cheated enough," he said. Mr Kapalanaka explained

He however said that he was ready to support whoever the party would chose should he not be adopted. He said that the party was bigger than anyone and that its decisions should be respected and followed by everyone.

Verify you voter’s details - Luanshya Mayor By SANFROSSA MANYINDA LUANSHYA Mayor, Nathan Chanda, has encouraged all registered voters to take advantage of the five-day period for the physical voter verification exercise. Mr Chanda who verified his details on the first day of the exercise expressed happiness about the exercise. The Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) has set Monday 29 to Friday April 2, this year for physical verification of the voters register. "I am encouraging voters in Luanshya to take advantage of the Inspection exercise to check the accuracy of details on the voter’s card or make replacement of a voter’s card in cases of lost, damaged, destroyed, or defaced voter’s cards," he said. Mr Chanda said voters that could be transferred from one polling station to another, object to a name appearing in the Register of Voters as well as make notification for deceased persons to be removed from the register. The mayor who is also Roan PF aspiring parliamentary candidate further encouraged residents and other stakeholders such as the Church, traditional Leaders, civic, political leaders and NGO's to help ECZ sensitise the public over the importance of this exercise. He discouraged them against waiting for the last days to verify their details. Mr Chanda said people should not wait for the last minute to verify thereby causing panic and asking for an extension.

‘I’VE NO TIME FOR RUMOURS’ By MICHAEL MIYOBA

CHIPOLOPOLO striker Patson Daka says he does not pay attention to rumours linking him to some of the best clubs in Europe. Daka, who features for Austrian giants Red Bull Salzburg has been linked with moves to English giants Manchester United and Arsenal who are reported to have expressed interest to sign the former Nchanga Rangers and Power Dynamos striker. In an interview after finishing the 2022 Cameroon AFCON qualifiers as the top scorer, Daka said he does not pay attention to what the media says as his focus is to deliver on the pitch. Daka, who is managed by 12th Management led by Malian legend Fredrick Kanoute, said he has a manager whose responsibility is to handle issues to deal with rumours concerning where he will go next. “I don’t really pay attention to what the media is saying and rumours will always be there as long as you are playing well so for me I try to work in each and every game because today’s performance won’t count the next day so I really have to keep the consistency and give my best every day to make sure that I continue to help the team in every possible way,” Daka said. Daka said his targets is to continue working hard to help his team to achieve greatness.

Bafana Bafana coach Ntseki sacked FROM 16

Bafana lost 2-0 in Sudan on Sunday, a result that saw them finish third in their qualification pool behind Ghana and the North African nation. Safa CEO Tebogo Motlanthe said that the National Executive Committee (NEC) have voted in favour of parting ways with Ntseki, who had been mandated to qualify for the continental finals. “We are here to convey the message of the NEC, who have mandated us to apologise to the nation on their behalf for the teams’ failure to qualify for the upcoming Afcon,” Motlanthe said. “Everyone worked around the clock to ensure we would qualify. Emotionally, it has affected the country. The expectation was we would qualify and do well in the finals. “(As such) the NEC has responded in favour of parting ways with the coach. The Technical Committee will give us direction on what will happen now (with a new coach) but we hope to reconvene next week to deliver the process going forward.” Ntseki was appointed in August 2019 after Stuart Baxter had led Bafana to the quarterfinals of the Nations Cup in Egypt. He was in charge for nine games, winning four of those against Sao Tome e Principe (twice), Sudan and Mali. There were also draws with Ghana and Namibia, and defeats to Ghana, Zambia and Sudan. – SuperSport.

NKANA STALK BUFFALOES By MICHAEL MIYOBA AFTER suffering their worst Super Division defeat at the hands of Green Buffaloes, struggling Nkana host the soldiers today with only one aim which is to revenge the famous 5-0 bashing which saw their coach Manfred Chabinga trading punches with a diehard fan over the team’s poor showing. The fan who failed to handle the agony of watching his idols being slaughtered by Buffaloes in a Week-4 fixture at Nkoloma Stadium will not be at Nkana Stadium to witness how “Kalampa” will redeem themselves as the match will be played behind closed doors. Led by Kelvin Kaindu who replaced Chabinga Nkana, who are the defending champions, will also target victory to lift the team spirits ahead of Sunday’s CAF Confederations Cup fixture against Tanzanian outfit Namungo FC. Nkana are winless in the last five games in all competitions where they have struggled with three CAF Confederations Cup defeats and two losses to Power Dynamos and Kabwe Warriors in the Super Division. Rejuvenated by the signing of Tichaona Chipunza from Zimbabwe and Emmanuel Mbola, Nkana will hope their challenges in defence have been resolved. The Kitwe giants are languishing in the relegation zone of the Super Division where they occupier 16th position with 20 points. Despite being comforted with four games in hand, “Kalampa” will surely fight for a win over Buffaloes to escape the relegation zone. The same prediction can be made on Buffaloes who also lack consistency having managed to get only one win, two draws and two losses in the last five games. Buffaloes will target to complete a double over Nkana when the two teams face off at Nkana Stadium today to escalate to 12th on the Super Division table.
