Inputs delivery done in Chipangali

THE Ministry of Agriculture has completed distribution of farming inputs to 16, 460 farmers in Chipangali. Chipangali district agriculture coordinator Frederick Mwansa has confirmed the distribution of farming inputs to the farmers, saying the exercise was completed last December 3. According to Mr. Mwansa, 3, 152 metric tonnes of Compound D fertiliser and 3, 619 metric tonnes of Urea fertiliser have been distributed to the farmers in the district. However, 251 x 20 kilogramme bags of groundnuts seed, which were part of the inputs have not been distributed because they were damaged after being soaked by rains. “I can say that we finished the distribution of inputs to beneficiaries in the district on December 3 where we gave out to 16, 460 farmers but 251 by 20kg bags of groundnuts seed, were damaged by rains, were not collected,” Mr. Mwansa said. Meanwhile, farmers have commended the government for the early distribution of the inputs. Mr Edward Phiri of Chilimbika village in Chief Mafuta's area said the early acquisition of inputs will result in a bumper harvest because farmers will apply fertiliser at the right time, unlike before when the application of fertiliser was done at a wrong time because of receiving the commodity late. “We are happy as farmers because we have acquired inputs on time, meaning that even the application of fertiliser in the fields will be done at a right time and we will anticipate a bumper harvest next year,” Mr. Phiri said. - ZANIS.

Mr Edward Simukonda said in an interview that Government should ensure that technocrats and not politicians sit to discuss because the “Indaba” was critical to the growth of the country’s economy. “It’s extremely good move and once implemented, Government will be able to collect enough revenue but should not be left to politicians.

She said in an interview that there were many other issues that needed to be put into perspective before any agreements could be reached. Ms Mulenga however said management was committed to negotiating with the unions over conditions of service for staff but that it needed more time to consult. She appealed to UNZAPROSU to be understanding as management could not

All the other unions agreed to the extension but our colleagues are not being understanding. We have to consult before making any decisions and we need ample time for that,” Ms Mulenga said. UNZAPROSU reportedly lamented that management had not responded to its demands for improved conditions of service for 2021.

Maggie calls for home building By OLIVER SAMBOKO

THERE is need for all citizens to exhibit a more positive approach towards national building if Zambia’s social and economic growth is to be realised, Policy Monitoring and Research Centre (PMRC) board chairperson Margaret Mwanakatwe has said. In her statement to mark the end of 2020, Ms. Mwanakatwe said as Zambians enter 2021, they should be goodwill ambassadors by sending positive messages to the rest of the world about the nation’s beauty and its development opportunities. “We cannot overestimate the importance of inculcating a positive mindset among citizens in relation to national matters. To this effect, we shall continue to pursue our programmes aimed at a National Mindset Education Programme for Zambia,” she said. She said the PMRC remains

Ms Mwanakatwe

committed to working towards supporting government institutions, agencies, and development partners in developing evidence-based policy recommendations for the effective delivery of the national development agenda.

Ms. Mwanakatwe said the centre will continue to partner with all like-missioned institutions to bolster the efforts and work towards encouraging debate on social and economic policy issues critical to national development and economic

transformation. “We commit to continue providing policy analysis to compliment the government in pursuit of prudent macroeconomic policies, increasing the economy’s resilience to shocks, and achieve higher and inclusive growth,” she said. She thanked stakeholders for the continued support rendered to the institution and added that 2020 brought several challenges for mankind but that Zambia had to adapt to new innovations amid the difficulties. “The resolve we showed in 2020 should be an encouragement to us all that amidst challenges and uncertainties, we can stand firm and determined to achieve that which we plan to achieve,” she said. Ms. Mwanakatwe also said the year 2021 is epic for Zambia as the nation goes to the polls in August to exercise sovereign and democratic rights of electing leaders at all levels.

Government spokesperson Dora Siliya told Parliament that Government was concerned with the increase in mealie meal prices and had come up with strategies in both the maize and mealie meal value chain.

He said Archbishop Mpundu’s continued malicious attacks on President Lungu are in conflict with biblical principles of unity, oneness, and respect for authority. “The conduct Archbishop Mpundu is exhibiting clearly shows that he is nowhere near discipleship. I appeal to the archbishop to desist from attacking the Head of State because he is setting a very bad example and that is not what the Catholic Church is known for. “We don’t need bloodshed in this country like what happened in the Rwanda genocide.

Unfortunately it is on record that the Catholic Church participated in the Rwanda genocide and we must not take pride and pleasure in spilling innocent blood,” Rev. Lungu said. He challenged Archbishop Mpundu to come out clearly on his earlier statement that there would be bloodshed in Zambia before the 2021 general elections in view of the recent killings of public prosecutor Nsama Nsama Chipyoka and a UPND cadre Joseph Kaunda when the opposition party leader Hakainde Hichilema appeared for questioning at the police headquarters on December 23, 2020.

I’ll not topple HH - Nkombo From Page 1

However, Mr Nkombo, who is UPND national chairperson for elections, has rubbished the claims that he wants to challenge Mr Hichilema. Mr Nkombo also said there is no secret mission to get rid of UPND members who defected from other political parties as claimed by Mr Njamba. He said in an interview that the allegations were of no substance. Mr Nkombo said he had no intentions of challenging Mr Hichilema at the forthcoming national convention, adding that such speculations were meant to distract members from real issues. “There is no substance in claims that I want to challenge President Hakainde Hichilema and that of getting rid of people from other political parties,” he said. Mr Njamba earlier said there was no democracy in the UPND and the party had embarked on a campaign to get rid of members who had joined it from other parties. He described the just

ended UPND Western Province intraparty elections a sham, putting the blame on Mr Nkombo. “Now that they think the party is forming Government next year they want to get rid of all those that came from other political parties including PF and MMD,” Mr Njamba said. He said PF provincial elections were credible, free and fair compared to those of UPND. Mr Njamba said it would not be right for UPND to use people from other parties as ladders and later dump them like diapers. He had accused Mr Nkombo of suppressing democracy in the province so that he could have his puppets to support him at the national convention. Meanwhile, Mr Njamba said UPND national women’s chairlady and the incoming provincial chairperson of segregation based on tribe. He said the two are getting rid of Nkoyas and Luvales from the party.

Don’t deceive your cadres, UPND told By NATION REPORTER

THE United Party for National Development (UPND) leaders have been cautioned against misleading their members into committing acts of lawlessness in the name of loyalty to their party. In an interview yesterday, New Congress Party (NCP) president Peter Chanda said the UPND leaders must educate their members on the basics of how the law operates. Mr. Chanda said everyone is aware that Zambia is governed by the law and all leaders must abide by rules and regulations contained in the Penal Code Chapter 87 of the Laws of Zambia and the Republican Constitution. He said everyone has to respect the Public Order Act but that the UPND has been trying to cause confusion to gain political mileage and sympathy from people on allegations that there is police brutality in Zambia. “We should all be aware that there is no one who is above the law. When one is summoned by the police one should go as an individual and my call to the UPND this year is that they should not subtract the rule of law. “Democracy goes in tandem with the rule of law and the UPND’s perceived idea

of democracy is that Zambia should be a lawless country and that they should do whatever they want at any given time. “I want to warn them that the fact that they came out as runners-up in the last elections does not give them rights to do whatever they want,” Mr. Chanda said. He said Zambia has a government that was elected by the people and that such government must be respected by everyone. He said any incumbent republican President must be respected and that every political leader must respect the law. He said when one forms government one swears to defend and protect the Constitution just like President Edgar Lungu is doing. On Thursday this week the Lusaka Magistrates’ Court granted 11 UPND cadres bail of K10, 000 each in their own recognizance on one count of idle and disorderly persons for the offence of conducting themselves in a manner likely to cause the breach of peace. They were arrested on December 23, 2020 when UPND president Hakainde Hichilema appeared for questioning at the police headquarters despite the police having warned them earlier to stay away from the proceedings.

ILLICIT BEER DRINKING AMONG YOUTHS IN MAMBWE WORRY CHIEF MNKHANYA

Tel: +260 211 243527

Plot No. 5251B Mukwa Road, Heavy Industrial Area. P.O. Box 34553, Lusaka Email: dailynation@ymail.com www.dailynation.info

IT’S A NEW DAWN ZAMBIA should this year focus on sustaining peace and building investor confidence, given the economic turmoil and political violence witnessed in the previous year. Firstly, the country must deal with the elephant in the room – general elections – in a manner that will not smudge the democratic credentials attained thus far. Clearly, the country has transitioned through six Heads of State peacefully and enjoyed peace since independence which was only stalked during the liberation struggle of other countries in the Southern African region. Therefore, leaders and citizens at large must work towards ensuring that Zambia remains an “oasis of peace” in Africa and beyond. Of course, political leaders will this time around be steeped into preparations for the August 12 general elections, but they must also create space for economic and social redemption. Elections should not steal the show! Leaders from both sides of the political divide must be conscious of the fact that the economic outlay requires realigning, what with inflation closing at 19.2 percent! Inflation has spiraled out of control, escaping the government’s projected band of 6-8 percent and this is certainly a source of worry. This means that the purchasing power of the Kwacha has declined drastically. There has been a marked increase of an average price level of a basket of selected goods and services in the domestic economy and this requires urgent attention. The exchange rate has deteriorated to K21.40 to a dollar and this will inevitably lead to an increase in fuel prices and ultimately push production costs upwards. Unless politicians and citizens understand the current economic malaise that way and immediately take pragmatic measures, the economy will drift further into abyss. Therefore, alongside the race for state power, politicians must expend equal if not more energy on redeeming plummeting economic fortunes. It is also true that leaders ought to safeguard peace and harmony this year to heal the humiliating wounds of last year. There ought to be co-existence and reasonable tolerance among political nemesis especially in the run up to the August polls. The political space needs to be cleaned up by doing away with toxic undertones and violence for the two are not part of any democratic dispensation. Zambia has had enough of trials and tribulations and it is time that citizens moved forward with steadfastness. The trials and tribulation offered an opportunity to learn and to get tested just as the word of God demonstrates in James 1:2-4 “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, (a) whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” Applying this scripture on Zambia, citizens persevered during trials and tribulation last year to make them mature so that they can ultimately enjoy this year without lacking anything. For this enjoyment to come, leaders must offer themselves for selfless service and realign the economy while ensuring that peace and co-existence prevail. As for citizens, they need to work extra hard and avoid indulging in retrogressive activities. It’s a new dawn!

CHIEF Mnkhanya of the Kunda people in Mambwe says most young people in his chiefdom have become unproductive because they have taken to drinking Kachasu, an illicit local beer. And the chief has asked government to consider enforcing a complete ban on the brewing of Kachasu. Chief Mnkhanya bemoaned wide spread abuse of Kachasu especially among the youths in Mambwe, and said there is need to enforce tough laws that will stop the brewing and consumption of illicit Kachasu beer. He lamented that many young people in his Chiefdom are indulging in drinking Kachasu senselessly instead of engaging themselves in productive activities such as farming. "Kachasu has destroyed a lot of lives especially that of young people. It has contributed to high levels of laziness

among youths because those who drink it, no longer have the energy to carry out any productive activities. Kachasu is no different from weed or chamba," he said. Chief Mnkhanya was speaking when Eastern Province Permanent Secretary Veronica Mwiche paid a courtesy call on him. The chief wondered why Government cannot outlaw

the brewing of Kachasu which, apart from from contributing to as brood of unproductive youths, has made young people to drop out of school. He also mentioned that heavy indulgence in drinking "Kachasu" has made young people to show total disrespect towards their parents and guardians. Chief Mnkhanya pointed out that there is need for concerted

Resolve differences, politicians advised FAILURE by politicians to resolve their differences before the August 12 elections may result in tension, the Independent Churches of Zambia (ICOZ) has said. ICOZ board chairperson David Masupa says it is worrying that politicians are at logger heads all the time. Bishop Masupa says as the year starts, it is important

that politicians once and for all resolve their issues for the sake of peace ahead of the general elections. He says political players owe it to the Zambian people to be at peace with one another before going to the polls. And Bishop Masupa has called on the church not to side with specific political

parties. Bishop Masupa says some churches are said to side with certain political parties and disregarding others which should not be the case. He says as the country counts down to elections in August the church should stand firm and not side with individual political parties. -ZANIS

HH blames floods on poor planning By SIMON MUNTEMBA ZAMBIA has over the years been experiencing perennial floods due to poor residential planning, UPND president Hakainde Hichilema has observed. Mr. Hichilema has called for proper planning of settlements and residential areas to avoid the floods and destruction of houses and crops in an event of heavy rains. According to the UPND media team, Mr. Hichelema

said this yesterday when he donated foodstuffs to victims of the Mumbwa floods. He attributed the calamity, which led to the death of a 21-year-old woman last weekend, to lack of proper planning and citing of residential areas. “How do you build dams upstream while build residential areas and settlements downstream. This is the result. We need to plan and unfortunately our government is failing to do that. We shall

Mr. Hichilema

prioritise planning to avoid such calamities that result in casualties,” Mr. Hichilema said. Mr Hichilema said he decided to spend his New Year celebrations with people who were affected by the floods in the spirit of brotherhood and called for unity and brotherliness even in times of bereavement and calamities. He also commended the community for aiding one another during the rescue mission. “I want in a special way to thank you the people of this community for being each other's keeper during the calamity. “You came together and rescued the victims and all I can say is thank you very much. To the youths job well done, your help came at the right moment otherwise we would have had several casualties,” he said. He donated foodstuffs that included mealie meal, cooking oil, sugar, and an oxen for distribution to the affected people.

efforts by all stakeholders to help put an end to the brewing of Kachasu if development has to take place in his chiefdom The chief also called on government to see how best it can help in reducing the high poverty levels being experienced in the district due to the floods that washed away crops early this year. He said his people are hard-working and they do cultivate crops, but due to natural disasters such as floods and drought as well as having their crops being eaten by wild animals, they are now languishing in poverty. The chief called on government to find a way of helping to compensate people whose crops get eaten by animals. Meanwhile, Ms Mwiche explained that alcohol abuse especially among youths is one of the challenges that government is working hard to control. - ZANIS

Mr Simukonda said the successful implementation of a stable mining tax regime would enable the Government maximise revenue collection and ensure economic growth.

RDA PRODS SUB-CONTRACTORS

2021 is a year of many opportunities, says S Chilangwa

By KETRA KALUNGA

By SIMON MUNTEMBA THE various projects government initiated in 2020 and recent years will provide massive job opportunities in Luapula Province in 2021, Provincial minister Nickson Chilangwa has said. And Mr Chilangwa has reiterated that Government’s priority for Luapula province is the provision of industrial energy to ensure production and manufacturing of various goods. In his ministerial wrap up speech for 2020, Mr Chilangwa said the new year would present many opportunities for youths, contactors, farmers, entrepreneurs among others as the provincial administration had worked hard to ensure various projects commenced. He explained that various projects such as the construction of the Samfya International Convention Centre, the ongoing water reticulation programme, the construction and rehabilitation of the Pedicle Road would present the much needed job opportunities for the people in the region. Mr Chilangwa also said the agriculture projects such as the Palm Oil Project in Nchelenge, the expansion of the Mansa Sugar Project, the forestry sector under ZAFFICO and WCCB, the tea value chain and the Cassava Out-growers Programme would provide opportunities for

farmers and others. He said government would ensure that all programmes were implemented to enable sustainable development and efficient service delivery. The minister said government would in 2021 continue to interact with the people in order not to leave anyone behind, as well as collaborating with various partners to bring about sustainable development. “Government will ensure it strives to bring about wealth creation, value addition, peace and security, efficient socioeconomic service delivery to attain sustainable livelihoods for the people. Government will remain open to stakeholder consultation and engagement on many programmes for the good of the people,” he said. He also announced that the provincial administration will in the year 2021 launch the establishment of the outgrower schemes project in the sugarcane, palm oil and tea value chain. As a result, he said, the provincial administration plans to hold an energy conference in March 2021 aimed at bringing all players in the sector to discuss challenges and find solutions.

Works on pedicle road to commence soon - RDA

THE Road Development Agency (RDA) in Luapula has confirmed that works on the pedicle road from Chembe to Mufulira will commence this month. Acting Luapula RDA Regional Manager Engineer Bernard Zulu observed that the pedicle road had become almost impassable for smaller vehicles and trucks going towards Luapula or the Copperbelt. Eng. Zulu disclosed that RDA has since engaged a contractor to start the patch up works before the real works of working on the road commence after the 2020/2021 rain season.

Eng. Zulu stated that because of the rains the road cannot be entirely worked on but only patched to prevent vehicles from getting stuck. He added that RDA is aware of other roads that are almost deplorable such as the Mansa-Musaila-Samfya road. Eng. Zulu noted that the contractor has been told to be on sight and start patching up the road. He pointed out that just after the rain season, RDA will be busy working on the roads around the province. - ZANIS

ZAMBIA IN TRADE SURPLUS

By BUUMBA CHIMBULU

ZAMBIA recorded a trade surplus of K7.15 billion in November 2020 compared to a surplus of K6.5 billion in October 2020. This is according to the Zambia Statistics Agency (ZamStats), Interim Statistician General, Mulenga Musepa. Mr Musepa said exports which mainly comprised of domestically produced merchandise, increased by 7.0 percent to K16.41 billion in November 2020 from K15.34 billion in October 2020. “This was mainly on account of a 79.3 percent and 1.8 percent increase in export earnings from Raw materials and Intermediate goods, respectively. “Imports increased by 4.7 percent to K9.25 billion in November 2020 from K8.84 billion in October 2020,” he said during a press briefing in Lusaka recently. Mr Musepa said this increase in imports was mainly as a result of a 42.6 percent and 10.3 percent increase in imports of Consumer goods and Raw materials, respectively. He said the total trade for the period January 2020 to November 2020 was K215.42 billion while the total trade for the same period of 2019 was K166.80 billion. Mr Musepa said this represented a 29.2 percent increase.

He said the total volume of exports for the period January to November 2020 was 6.14 million metric tonnes , of which road transport accounted for 4.3 million tonnes, representing 70.1 percent of total volume exported. Rail transport, he said, accounted for 95.0 thousand tonnes exported, representing 1.5

percent. Mr Musepa indicated that the air transport accounted for 3.9 thousand tonnes. “The total value of Imports via all modes of transport for the period January 2020 to November 2020 was K86.8 billion. Road transport was the highest at K44.3 Billion representing 51.0 percent, followed by Air transport at K9.1 billion (10.5 percent),” he said.

ZAMBIA will need to make fundamental policy shifts in order to achieve the objectives of the Vision 2030. Achieving the objectives is essential to repositioning the Zambian economy onto growth and development, in a manner that makes the country less susceptible to domestic and external shocks. This is according to the Policy Monitoring and research Centre (PMRC) Executive Director, Bernadette DekaZulu. Ms Deka-Zulu said in a PMRC Newsletter between January to December 2020, that this was seen as a critical area of focus midway before the expiry of the Vision 2030. “The Seventh National Development Plan (7NDP) provides a clear roadmap of what needs to be done to diversify our country’s economy, going forward there is dire need for the mobilization of resources that will finance the various strategies and policies as outlined within the 7NDP towards the realization of economic diversification,” she said. She observed that the manufacturing sector in Zambia accounted for approximately 11 percent of the country’s GDP and had been growing at an average annual rate of three percent in

By BUUMBA CHIMBULU THE World Bank and the African Development Bank (AfDB) have a combined project support commitment in excess of US$2.0 billion covering various sectors in Zambia. This commitment has been injected in various projects across all sectors of the economy in Zambia such as energy and manufacturing, says National Development Planning Minister, Alexander Chiteme. Mr Chiteme said his ministry had continued in its effort to track progress on the implementation of various Government projects supported by the World Bank and the AfDB. He said that this had been conducted through jointperformance review meetings held on a quarterly basis. “Most of the reviewed projects were found to be on track while others require significant interventions to meet their intended development objectives. “The Covid-19 pandemic was obviously one of the contributing factors to delays experienced by a number of projects; and remedial measures have already been developed to help follow-up on issues which have negatively affected the projects,” he said. In terms of monitoring and evaluation, he said, the ministry this year managed to produce the 2019 annual performance review report and the mid-term review report covering the period 2017 to 2019 on the performance of the 7NDP. Mr Chiteme said the two reports indicated progress had been recorded in the implementation of programmes and projects in the 7NDP, though at a slower pace. He said during the last quarter of 2020, the ministry also undertook a spot monitoring exercise in all the 10 provinces and a total of 276 projects and programmes were checked covering 74 districts. “For a good number of projects visited, remarkable progress has been made; while fewer projects experienced slow implementation due to low funding caused by reduced fiscal space,” Mr Chiteme said.

Ms Deka-Zulu the last five years. Ms Deka-Zulu said Zambia’s manufacturing sector had considerable investment potential as the domestic economy was relatively well endowed with resource factors such as raw materials, required labour force, abundant water and rich minerals. She said the priority areas for investment in the sector included food processing, textiles and clothing, mineral processing, chemical products, engineering, leather products, electrical goods, pharmaceutical products and packaging materials. “In a quest to diversify the economy in the manufacturing sector, the

Government has been working on setting up Multi Facility Economic Zones, Industrial Parks and other support infrastructure to accelerate industrialization. “The actualised investment into the Multi Facility Economic Zones is estimated at US$ 3.3 billion, with more than 15,000 jobs created,” Ms Deka-Zulu said. She however said the success of diversification depended on the mix, sequencing, and timing of investments, policy reforms and institution building, and on the consistency with the underlying assets and related comparative advantages of the country. Ms Deka-Zulu explained that investments in skills, infrastructure, institutions and governance quality increase the likelihood of success of diversification but were in turn affected by the extent of diversification. “Providing the foundations for structural transformation and private sector driven growth is an essential element in achieving a broader base of economic activities. “Further, clear, transparent and predictable business regulations that provide a level playing field among investors (small and large, foreign and domestic) are essential for economic diversification,” she said.

PUBLIC water utility companies should develop innovative business models that will help them to remain afloat even in challenging times, says Minister of Water Development and Sanitation and Environmental Protection Jonas Chanda. Dr Chanda said Government wanted water utility companies to be giving back to the treasury as opposed to government always coming in to offer support. He said in Kitwe that water utility companies could start the packaging mineral water as an income generating venture. Dr Chanda, however, hailled Nkana Water and Sanitation Company (NWSC) for the numerous projects the firm was undertaking using institutional financing. “The President having put focus on water and sanitation has led to so many improvements and this is evident by the increasing coverage across the country. Am very confident we will meet the vision 2030” he

further said. And Kitwe Mayor Christopher Kang’ombe has conveyed his appreciation to Government for the commitment in the water and sanitation sector which has evidently seen many periurban areas being serviced with water and sanitation services. Mr Kang’ombe therefore called for speedy completion of stalled projects in order for people to have increased water supply for the 26 unplanned settlements in Kitwe. Meanwhile, NWSC Managing Director Diana Makwaba assured that all projects were within completion schedule. She further thanked Government for the continued financial and other support to help them meet their targets.

The debt crisis alone has the potential to reverse the economic and

social strides the country has made,” he said. Mr Chishimba urged Government to ensure fiscal discipline in its systems in order to achieve the set economic parameters. “We therefore urge Government to develop strong institutional collaboration and scale up stakeholder engagement in the implementation process of the economic recovery plan to ensure genuine social dialogue, transparency and inclusive participation,” he said.

Mr Chishimba called for the tax system to be progressive and designed in a way that the lives of ordinary people were not made worse off. He said higher taxes increased the cost of living on individuals, pushed low income earners into poverty and could also slow down economic growth. “While Government needs to improve revenue to pay off its debt, poorly executed taxation policies threaten to derail Government’s ability to raise money,” Mr Chishimba said.

FROM RUFUNSA WITH LOVE Dear Editor,

OMRADES, having closed the good year of the Lord 2020, I would like to share a few personal thoughts. The year 2020 was characterised and loaded with various events both good and bad ones. For some we were blessed with the birth of new family members, graduation ceremonies, weddings ceremonies, job appointments, etc. For others maybe the year delivered disappointments, disease, even sadly putting to rest our beloved ones. Through all these diverse circumstances we made it to the end of 2020 as a year that the Lord had made and we were glad and rejoiced in it against all odds. The New Year is an opportunity to redefine our priorities. Let’s take stock of our lives and see whether what we have been busy with is important or just urgent. A New Year is an opportunity to redefine and align our lives according to our purpose. A New Year is an opportunity to redefine our life vision, re-establish worthwhile goals and not waste our time. Bury the past therefore, and move into the future you haven’t created yet. Leave the baggage behind in 2020. Let’s have the right heart desires and decisions first. Then our passionate faith will attract God’s provisions to fulfill our heart’s desires. Ephesians 5: 15 – 17: Be very careful, then, how you live - not as unwise but as wise, making

Guard against the deadlier and fast spreading Covid-19 Dear Editor, ZAMBIA should guard against the new wave of Covid-19 which is more deadly and spreads faster than the former one. Our country within the month of December confirmed close to 3, 000 Covid cases and 28 deaths. The minister of Health, Dr. Chitalu Chilufya last Wednesday confirmed that the country has recorded the second wave of Covid-19 called 501Y.V2. Dr. Chilufya disclosed this during the weekly coronavirus update. In the last 24 hours preceding Wednesday, the country recorded 285 cases. Dr. Chilufya also disclosed that the new strain of coronavirus hat has been recorded in Zambia in the recent past is the same as the one recorded in Europe and South Africa.

deadlier and it spreads faster than the old one. It kills faster than the former one. However, people aged between 17 and 45 are most vulnerable to contract this new strain of Covid-19. The reason being that this category of people like patronising public gatherings such as weddings for instance. Pregnant women and people with critical health conditions are also vulnerable to the coronavirus pandemic. It is evident that coronavirus is real and people should not drop the guard against the Covid-19 pandemic. People should instead strictly adhere to the Covid-19 health guidelines. These include masking up, observing social distancing, sanitising and washing hands with soap. Failure to observe the Covid-19 health guidelines, the country is most likely to witness the surge in infections and deaths owing to the fact that the new strain is more deadly and it kills faster. We should adhere to the Covid-19 health guidelines in a bid to stop spread of the pandemic. We should also avoid public gatherings especially during celebrations this festive season.

The dream behind Kitwe transformation Dear Editor, IN 2016, I shared an idea with then Deputy Director of Engineering at Kitwe City Council, Musa Chibawe that resources allowing we needed to expand to four lanes, Freedom Way. Our engineers did some draft road expansion designs and shared them with the Ministry of Infrastructure and Housing. With expert input from the Roads Development Agency (RDA), a contractor was appointed to design and implement 53 kilometres of road works which included expansion of both Freedom Way and President Avenue. What you see today in Kitwe is a product of team work, proper planning and adequate support from the central government at the highest level of the office of the Republican President. CHRISTOPHER KANG’OMBE, Kitwe Mayor. the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore, do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. Proverbs 16:3 says commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed. Redeeming Time: Getting back all that we lost due to bad decisions and bad use of time. Wisdom means application of the knowledge, therefore, let’s make 2021 a year of application. God determines and controls our steps. Our duty is to plan and commit our plans into His hands - don’t be lazy to plan. Our vision and purpose (bigger

picture) will give us the patience as the Lord guides our steps. Though our visions may tarry let’s be patient and keep praising the Lord while we’re in our “holding parking.” Purpose sees the end, which is permanent. Anything in between can’t last but is simply the process to get us to our purpose. We are on our way to what we saw in our respective visions. Our future is God’s past so let’s obey and trust God who holds our future. As we head to the polls this year, may we bear in mind that we are One Zambia, One Nation. Our young democracy must be nurtured as we strive for decency,

fairness, respect for the rule of law. We are all called upon to observe high levels of restraint and respect the wish of the people. To the PF leadership and members at large, let’s go out to mobilise and connect with the people giving them hope, showing empathy as ever with the spirit of unifying the country. All the best PF party! You surely deserve another mandate from the wonderful people of Zambia. May the good year of the Lord 2021 be a year of abundance and blessings. Stay safe Covid-19 is real. P.

ot long ago, His Excellency President Edgar Chagwa Lungu was conferred with a medal as a Champion of the Third Industrial Decade for Africa (IDDA3) is a momentous boon for Zambia. This was a reflection of our Head of State’s uncompromised steadfastness to develop Zambia and his passion to better the lives of the citizenry. The eminent stature of the organisations that conferred this prestigious recognition upon President Lungu is very significant. That the United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO), African Union (AU), Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), UN Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) and the African Development Bank (ADB) jointly recognised President Edgar Chagwa Lungu in this regard, just shows how like the majority of Zambians, these cooperating partners and the international community esteem him, his efforts and his achievements. BACKGROUND On 25 July 2016, the United Nations (UN) General Assembly adopted Resolution A/RES/70/293, proclaiming 2016-2025 as the Third Industrial Development Decade for Africa (IDDA III). UNIDO was tasked with leading the implementation of the Decade, in collaboration with a range of partners. The vision for the implementation of IDDA III is to firmly anchor Africa on a path towards inclusive and sustainable industrial development. The achievement of this vision requires the transformation of African countries into locations of competitive industrial production. The necessary enabling framework conditions for this industrial transformation include the strengthening of key elements of industrial productive capacity, such as infrastructure, innovation and technology transfer, industrial financing, industrial knowledge and skills, and the support from public and private sector institutions that regulate and advocate industrial development. Various development interventions and broad - based partnerships are required to improve the enabling framework, as well as to encourage productive industrial investment ventures in Africa. The Revised Zambian Industrial Policy It is no surprise that this honour was conferred upon our Head of State. The PF Government of President Edgar Chagwa Lungu has demonstrated practical commitment to

ZAMBIA IS ON THE RIGHT ECONOMIC PATH TO INDUSTRIALISTATION THROUGH INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT Industrialisation and concomitant diversification. To this end, President Lungu and the PF Government approved the National Industrial Policy. While industrial policy issues were previously covered under the Commercial, Trade and Industrial Policy which covered both trade and industrial development matters, the revised standalone Industrial Policy emphasises industrial development in order to compel industries operating in Zambia to process local raw materials into finished products. This is designed to augment government’s efforts to create employment in various parts of the country while the revenue base will simultaneously be expanded. The resultant value addition to local raw materials will have a positive ripple effect by creating business opportunities for Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) to supply goods and services. Manufacturing is an important driver of economic development and employment. The Importance of Infrastructure Development There can be no meaningful development, industrialisation and diversification without Infrastructure Development. This is because finished goods need to reach their markets in a timely efficient manner. Bad or non-existent Infrastructure is one of the biggest impediments to doing

corruption, but their folly always blows up in their faces. In the meantime, Zambia is headed for major economic growth through industrialisation and diversification through infrastructure development.

business. In line with its manifesto 2016-2021, The Patriotic Front (PF) Government led by President Edgar Chagwa Lungu, has consequently made unprecedented investments in infrastructure in the fields of Transport, Irrigation, Energy, Health, Education as well as Information and Communication Technology among others. These are the crucial pre-requisites to achieving sustainable development and empowering communities across the length and breadth of our nation. The PF Government led by President Lungu recognises that growth in productivity and incomes, and improvements in health and education outcomes equally require investment in infrastructure. By building infrastructure, the President and the PF Administration have also saved and continue to save our people time and money as they travel to access services and

facilities. The Patriotic Front Government has been implementing the Link Zambia 8000 programme and other road projects aimed at transforming Zambia into a land linked country, allowing it to exploit both its domestic and regional markets. Apart from creating jobs, the road projects have been instrumental in contributing to the opening up of new business opportunities in the country. In the health and education sectors, there has been unprecedented infrastructure development. All of these developments are a major step to industrialisation and sustainable diversification of the Zambian Economy. As earlier mentioned, the Patriotic Front government has embarked on unparalleled infrastructure development in every sector. This has created employment and provided mid to long term benefits in all

sectors. It has been said that ordinary politicians prepare for the next elections, while statesmen plan for the next generation. Herein lies the fundamental difference between the Statesman and Champion of Development in President Edgar Chagwa Lungu and his opposition detractors. While the Head of State Champions the development of the whole nation for now and future generations, others in the opposition live up to their moniker. They are jealous and envious at the infrastructure development and the nation being turned into a progressive construction site. Because they have no alternatives to offer, they are desperate to remain relevant. They cajole their membership saying “we can’t eat roads and bridges”. They have tried in vain to make, infrastructure development synonymous with

The people of Zambia across the nation are appreciative witnesses and beneficiaries While his detractors are fixated on digging themselves deeper and deeper into a rut through acrimonious discourse dug by their unending vitriolic rituals and vicious cycle of election defeats, President Edgar Chagwa Lungu leading the PF Government has chosen to look straight ahead with his eyes firmly on achieving the UN Goal 9 (nine): “Build resilient infrastructure, promote sustainable industrialization and foster innovation”. The People of Zambia have noticed our President’s zeal and dedication to Industrialisation and diversification through infrastructure development. We applaud the astute discernment by cooperating partners represented by UNIDO, AU, FAO, UNECA and ADB in recognising President Edgar Chagwa Lungu as a Champion. Congratulations Zambia!

TSHISEKEDI SEEKS NEW PARLIAMENTARY BASE …after breaking with predecessor

the alliance have frustrated his efforts to address armed violence in the mineral-rich east, reform the judiciary and secure financial support from the International Monetary Fund and World Bank. In response, he has tried to convince members of Kabila’s alliance to defect to a new political bloc, known as the Sacred Union, that will support his agenda. Tshisekedi registered an

early victory on December 10 when the lower house of parliament voted to remove a Kabila ally as speaker. Late on Thursday, he nominated Senator Modeste Bahati as a facilitator whose task will be to determine whether the Sacred Union has the support of a majority of legislators. Bahati will have a 30-day mandate, which can be renewed once, the presidency said in a statement.

If Tshisekedi is successful, the new parliamentary majority could initiate a motion of no confidence against the government of Prime Minister Sylvestre Ilunga, a Kabila ally. Tshisekedi, a longtime opponent of Kabila, won office by defeating Kabila’s chosen successor in the December 2018 election, even as independent observers said another opposition candidate had won. – REUTERS.

MAPUTO - The powerful tropical storm Chalane made landfall near the central Mozambique city of Beira early on Wednesday, bringing heavy rain and wind but less damage than had been initially expected to an area devastated by a cyclone nearly two years ago.

We are far out of trouble with Chalane but we are all really relieved that the damages were not stronger and hope that flooding does not happen.” – REUTERS.

Trump extends immigration bans despite opposition from U.S. business groups

WASHINGTON - U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday extended a pair of immigration bans that block many “green card” applicants and temporary foreign workers from entering the country, measures he says are needed to protect U.S. workers amid the pandemic-battered economy. The bans, which were issued in April and June, were set to expire on December 31, but will be extended until March 31, 2021, the latest in a series of last-gasp immigration moves by the outgoing Trump administration. A broad range of businesses oppose the ban on certain foreign workers. – REUTERS.

Australia changes national anthem wording to reflect Indigenous history

SYDNEY - Australia amended its national anthem to remove reference to the country being “young and free” amid calls to recognise that its Indigenous people are the oldest continued civilisation in the world.

"I declare 2020 as the year of the health workers of our country who are the heroes and heroins of the struggle that South Africa has waged against Covid-19," he said. Health Minister Zweli Mkhize led a candle lighting ceremony in KwaZulu-Natal on New Year's Eve to pay tribute to the more than 28, 000 people who have lost their lives to Covid-19 in 2020 as the daily new cases reach 18, 000. - NEWS24.

Covid pandemic dampens New Year celebrations around the world LONDON - New Year celebrations around the world have been muted as many countries struggle to curb new spikes in coronavirus cases. Fireworks displays and other public gatherings were cancelled from Sydney to New York. Festivities were particularly restricted in Europe, amid fears over a more contagious variant of the virus. France mobilised 100, 000 police to break up New Year’s Eve parties and enforce a night-time curfew. More than 1.8 million people have died with the virus across the world since the start of the pandemic a year ago. More than 81 million cases have been reported. In France, the government ordered a visible security presence in urban areas from 20:00 on Thursday, when the

curfew began. In England, where the new coronavirus variant is spreading fast and more than 40 million people in the worstaffected regions are forced to stay at home UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson urged people to follow the rules. London’s streets were quiet during New Year’s Eve after police there warned people to celebrate at home. Ireland moved to its highest level of restrictions on Thursday, banning all household visits, closing all non-essential retail and limiting travel to 5km Germany is currently under lockdown until January 10. The government has banned the sale of fireworks and placed tight restrictions on the number of people who can gather in public. In Italy, a 22:00 curfew was imposed, and bars, restaurants and most shops were closed. The Netherlands is also under a lockdown, which is set to last until January 19. Its usual countdown took place behind closed doors at a football stadium in Amsterdam. – BBC.

The cooperatives will be given six kilogrammes of fish, cages and other equipment. After harvesting the fish they will sell it to Yalelo Fisheries. The project, initiated by President Lungu, is expected to improve livelihoods and income in Siavonga. But the President is worried about the rampant theft of fish in cages. He said the vice was a danger to the development of the industry. He directed the minister of Fisheries and Livestock Professor Nkandu Luo to work with relevant authorities to stop the thefts. Such vices, including bad fishing methods are hampering the growth of the sub-sector.

Zambia in pre-CHAN test (From page 1) The Serbian who is determined to make amends after recording a painful 1-0 defeat to Botswana in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers will look to experienced and upcoming stars to deliver the expected results in Cameroon. ““The biggest power given to us is to make millions happy and for that to happen we shall not allow any stone to be unturned to put a smile on our people for the hard times of the year 2020 to be forgotten. “We want to do anything possible to get the performance and results at the CHAN Tournament,” Micho said before departure for Cameroon. Zambia and Niger have met three times since 2014 with Zambia having one victory while the other two matches ended in stalemates.Zambia first met Niger 0n October 11, 2014 when the two teams were involved in a goalless draw before Zambia won the return leg fixture 3-0 at the Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola. Goals from Rainford Kalaba, Emmanuel Mayuka and Kennedy Mweene handed Zambia the important win in an AFCON qualifying fixture. The two teams then met on October 10, 2019 in an international friendly match which ended 1-1 as Cletus Chama scored for the Aggrey Chiyangi-drilled Chipolopolo. The two teams are preparing for the CHAN tournament which will see Zambia compete in Group D alongside Guinea, Tanzania and Namibia while Niger will compete in Group B with Congo Brazzaville, Congo DR and Libya. After playing Niger today. the Chipolopolo will face Uganda on January 4 before wrapping up their engagement with a fixture against Cameroon on January 7 .

RISING COVID-19 INFECTIONS WON’T STOP 2020 TOKYO OLYMPICS, SAYS PM THE delayed 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics will go ahead this summer despite concern over rising coronavirus cases, says Japan's Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga. The Olympics are due to begin on July 23, with the Paralympics following a month later from August 24. Cases have surged in Japan in recent days with Tokyo reporting over 1, 000 daily infections for the first time. But Suga said the "Games will be held this summer" and be "safe and secure." Japan is responding to cases of the new variant of coronavirus first found in the UK, with Tokyo governor Yuriko Koike warning the number of infections could "explode." There were a record 1, 337 cases in Tokyo on December 31 with 783 new infections announced yesterday.

Phoenix Suns beat Utah Jazz to go 4-1, Philadelphia 76ers beat Orlando Magic

The Suns lead the Western Conference alongside the Los Angeles Clippers who are also 4-1 this season

DEVIN Booker scored 25 points and made seven assists as his Phoenix Suns beat the Utah Jazz and moved to 4-1 for the first time since 2009. Team-mates Jae Crowder and Mikal Bridges had 16 points each in a 106-95 win in the Western Conference. Elsewhere, the Houston Rockets earned their first victory of the season with James Harden netting 33 points in a 122-119 win over the Sacramento Kings. John Wall added 22 points in his first game after a twoyear injury lay-off. In the Eastern Conference, the Philadelphia 76ers won 116-92 at the previously unbeaten Orlando Magic with Joel Embiid and Seth Curry, the younger brother of Stephen, both scoring 21 points. The 76ers and Magic now both have a 4-1 record at the top of the standings, along with the Indiana Pacers who inflicted a second straight loss on the Cleveland Cavaliers, 119-99. Toronto Raptors ended their threegame winless start by beating the New York Knicks 10083, while the Chicago Bulls lost four players - including Finnish star Lauri Markkanen - to the league’s coronavirus protocols but still beat the winless Washington Wizards 133-130. The New Orleans Pelicans dominated the Oklahoma City Thunder 113-80 in the Western Conference. – REUTERS.

Chelsea confirm profits despite COVID-19 hit on revenue CHELSEA recorded a profit of 32.5 million pounds in the last financial year despite the economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Premier League club said. Chelsea said turnover for the year ended June 30, 2020 was 407.4 million pounds, down from 446.7 million pounds in the previous year. But the west London club were able to post a profit off the back of their qualification to the Champions League

and money made from player sales. Chelsea sold Belgian winger Eden Hazard to Real Madrid last summer in a deal worth a reported $122.12 million and also offloaded Ola Aina, Tomas Kalas and David Luiz among others. Broadcasting revenues decreased by 17.6 million pounds, while match day revenues fell 12.2 million pounds due to the suspension of the season. But the impact of the

pandemic was partially offset by reduced match day costs due to the postponement of fixtures. Chelsea also said they were on track to post a record profit and record turnover had the pandemic not hit their finances. “In common with many businesses, the pandemic has had a significant impact on Chelsea’s income but it is a sign of the strength and stability of our financial operation that the company was still

able to post a profit,” Chairman Bruce Buck said. “Despite the impact of Covid, the revenue streams remained strong, our team is developing on the pitch and the club is in a good position to continue to grow when football is able to operate as it did previously.” Chelsea, who are sixth in the table with 26 points from 16 games, host Manchester City today. – SuperSport.

Japan has recorded 239, 041 coronavirus cases and 3, 337 deaths during the pandemic, according to Johns Hopkins University. Costs for the Games have increased by $2.8 billion because of measures needed to prevent the spread of coronavirus but organisers have ruled out a delay. The Games could be the most expensive summer Olympics in history. A poll by national broadcaster NHK showed that the majority of the Japanese general public oppose holding the Games in 2021, favouring a further delay or outright cancellation of the event. Suga said the Games going ahead could serve as a "symbol of global solidarity." – BBC.

Nsabato joins Zesco in surprise move (From page 1) Kenyan international defender David Owino Odhiambo and midfielder Enock Sabumukama have left the club after it embarked on a trajectory to limit the number of foreign players at the club Zesco United Football Club Chief Executive Officer Richard Mulenga said earlier that the new club policies stipulates that the club shall recruit a maximum number of five foreign players. “I wish to inform our strategic stakeholders, especially Zesco United fans that we are mandated by the Zesco United Football Club board to reduce the number of foreign players to five by the end of 2021. This process has already started as part of preparations for us to reach this target,” Mulenga said. “It remains our mission to bring the best players to Zesco United Football Club. This change in policies will also give our home-grown players an opportunity to play for the biggest club in the land and a rare platform to shine at both local and international level.”
