OPPOSITION ALLIANCE INTACT - KAKOMA

Medical Stores, ZAMRA boards dissolved

By NOEL IYOMBWA MINISTER of Health Jonas Chanda has with immediate effect dissolved the Zambia Medicines Regulatory Authority and Medical Stores boards.

Dr Chanda has also abolished 10 directorates in the Health Sector.

This is contained in a statement issued to Daily Nation by the Ministry of health.

The Minister has also reduced the number of directorates from 17 to seven.

“Medical stores Limited (MSL) has transitioned into Zambia Medical Supplies Agency (ZAMSA).

“This means the MSL board is dissolved and non-existent.

A new ZAMSA board will be appointed in due course.

Dr Chanda said that this entails that the procurement of function of all medical supplies will no longer be under the Ministry of Health and will now be carried out by ZAMSA. Earlier this week, Medical Stores Limited (MSL) Managing Director Chikuta Mbewe was dismissed from his position following recent revelations that substandard medical kits, including leaking condoms, were distributed to health facilities starting from September last year.

James Kapesa, the agency’s then board chairperson told journalists that the agency has operating procedures that require that commodities issued should be of high quality, adding that the diversion from the required standard requires urgent attention.

“MSL’s principal activity is the storage and distribution of efficacious and safe medicines and medical products to the public health facilities. In view of what

happened in the recent past, action has been taken to ensure that remedy is done according to the provisions of the law,” he told reporters during a press briefing.

The distribution of the substandard medical products, allegedly supplied by a local pharmaceutical firm, HoneyBee Pharmaceuticals, has stirred rile in the country with increased calls for the firing and arrest of all those involved.

Meanwhile, the cumulative number of confirmed Covid-19 cases in Zambia has now reached 60, 427 after the addition of 1,424 new cases recorded in the last 24 hours from the 10,082 tests that were conducted, Dr Chanda said yesterday, reports ZANIS. Dr Chanda however expressed concern with the growing number of cases in the Copperbelt province which he said is becoming an epicenter.

Dr. Chanda however stated that the surveillance team on the ground is working round the clock to arrest the situation promptly.

And the minister has announced that 16 new deaths were recorded in the last 24 hours and these have been classified as Covid-19 deaths or Covid-19 associated deaths.

He added that the development has resulted in the cumulative number of Covid-19 deaths to stand at 828, with 378 being Covid deaths, 419 Covid-19 associated deaths and 31 deaths pending classification.

In a statement in Lusaka yesterday, Dr. Chanda has further indicated that an additional 740 patients from both the isolation facilities and home management have been discharged bringing the cumulative number of recoveries to 52,045.

Government urges tree planting for environmental protection

By John kombe GOVERNMENT has appealed to citizens to embrace tree planting as a way of preserving the environment.

Minister of Water and Environmental Protection, Raphael Nakachinda made the observation during a tree planting ceremony in Chongwe.

The theme of the event was “Trees Nature Based Solutions”.

He noted that the theme was in line with the government’s agenda of enhancing provision of clean and safe water by 2030. He urged citizens to plant trees so as to protect the environment from the harsh effects of climate change.

The minister said trees play an important role in conserving biodiversity. He said that tree planting also enhances sustainable development.

Mr. Nakachinda further reiterated government’s commitment to promoting a green environment.

He pointed out that government places water and land development as two very critical sectors.

And in a speech read on his behalf by environmental management director Godwin Gondwe the ministry’s permanent secretary Mabvuto Sakala recognised the importance that trees play in human survival.

He said that trees were an important resource that must be preserved and urged the residents of Chongwe and beyond to ensure that they plant trees in their communities.

He emphasised that government remained committed to promoting tree planting for sustainable development.

Mr Kakoma

THE Opposition Alliance is intact and there was no scheduled meeting on Wednesday to formalise the alliance and electoral pact, says UPND spokesperson Charles Kakoma.

On Wednesday, sources revealed to the Daily Nation that the meeting that was intended to formalise the alliance and electoral pact was scuttled due distrust between UPND president Hakainde Hichilema and his

National Democratic Party (NDC) counterpart, Chishimba Kambwili.

The source said the UPND, NDC and ADD meeting was scheduled for Wednesday but failed to take off and was postponed to a later date.

But in an interview yesterday, Mr Kakoma said there was no scheduled meeting on Wednesday for the alliance.

Mr Kakoma also said reported cracks of the alliance were imaginary and creation of those who do not want it to succeed, He said the alliance has not received any communication from

any alliance partner that intend to withdraw.

He said rumours of the collapse were fake and should be treated with the contempt they deserved.

“We are not aware of any cracks. Those are imaginary because no alliance partner has informed us of the intentions to leave the alliance.

“In fact, there was no scheduled meeting on Wednesday for the alliance,” Mr Kakoma said.

Recently, there were rumours that Mr Kambwili was re-joining the ruling party, reports which he has dismissed.

Chiengi audit reveals irregular payments Mwila toasts

By AARON CHIYANZO CHIENGI Town Council irregularly paid amounts totalling K45, 874 to a lodge for accommodation, food and refreshments for three officers that had been transferred from various councils when they were in receipt of housing allowances, the Auditor General Report of local authorities for the financial years ended December 31 2018 and 2019 has revealed.

The report states that

as at October 31, 2020, the funds had not been recovered.

“During the period under review, the council paid amounts totalling K45, 874 to a lodge for accommodation, food and refreshments for three officers that had been transferred from various councils to Chienge Town Council.

However, the payments were irregular in that the officers were not entitled as they were in receipt of housing allowance,” the report reads in part.

And the report states that contrary to regulations, 36 payments in amounts totalling K308, 903 were not supported with documents such as invoices and letters of termination or appointment.

It indicates that Local Authorities Financial Regulation No. 98 (1) states, “all payment vouchers with supporting documents, and any other forms which support a charge entered into the accounts, shall be carefully filed, secured and be readily available for audit.”

PF refunded salaries for ministers - Veep

By NOEL IYOMBWA

VICE-PRESIDENT Inonge Wina has disclosed that the Patriotic Front mobilised resources to pay for the ministers who stayed in office after the dissolution of Parliament.

Ms Wina told the house that despite being ministers, the affected individuals belonged to the PF, hence the ruling party has a mandate to fend for its members.

She said this is a scenario even in other political parties including the United Party for National Development.

The Vice President was responding to Bwengwa MP, Kasautu Michelo, who wanted to know the names of individuals who paid for the ministers and the names of ministers who paid for themselves.

“Mr Speaker, the ministers who remained in office are members of the PF and the party has an obligation and mandate to fend its members, a scenario that can be done in any political party, so we mobilised the resources and paid.

“Mr. Speaker, the question raised by the MP was not relevant to the current status,” she added.

Meanwhile, Ms Wina said Government has released funds for the construction of Mongu-Limulunga road.

She said K2 million has been released but that the contractor has maintained that he can only start work after the rain season.

She was responding to Luena MP, David Kundoti, who wanted to know when Government is going to work on the MonguLimulunga road.

by-election victories

By SIMON MUNTEMBA THE election victory of the ruling Patriotic Front in Vubwi and Miputu local government by-elections is a signal that President Edgar Lungu will be retained in this year’s general election, says PF SecretaryGeneral Davis Mwila.

Mr Mwila has meanwhile banned the use of branded vehicles by PF aspiring candidates across the country.

He said in a statement that the victories were a sign that PF would scoop this year’s general elections.

This follows announcement of results of the Vubwi Town Council and Miputu ward by-elections of Thursday in favour of the ruling party.

“The ruling Patriotic Front has received the news of our overwhelming victories in Vubwi and Masaiti with humility and thanksgiving to Jehovah the Almighty God. The Vubwi Town Council byelection followed the death of the former chairperson, Mr Joshua Daka, while the Miputu ward fell vacant after the resignation of the councillor who joined the PF. Mr Mwila said victory in Miputu Ward signified that PF was mopping up of the last residues of the opposition on the Copperbelt.

He urged PF members to continue marching from one level of victory to another until they seal it with a resounding victory on August 12.

Meanwhile, Mr Mwila said aspiring candidates should not use branded vehicles in all constituencies because the party has no official candidates yet.

“As the party has no official candidates yet, may I also take this opportunity to announce a ban of branded vehicles by aspiring candidates in all constituencies.

“While we have allowed aspiring candidates to market themselves to the people, the use of branded vehicles is therefore banned,” he said.

Mr Mwila has also called on all those who left the party to return to the PF family.

NGOCC SCOLDS CHANGALA OVER ATTACKS AGAINST VEEP

By SIMON MUNTEMBA and OLIVER SAMBOKO

B

REBNAR Changala’s recent remarks directed at Vice President Inonge Wina are disturbing and devoid of someone who should be championing the end to women’s discrimination, the Non-governmental Gender Organisation’s Coordinating Council (NGOCC) has said.

NGOCC chairperson, Mary Mulenga said it was disappointing that Mr Changala, who claimed to be an activist and defender of women’s rights was in the forefront attacking the Vice President unnecessarily.

She was reacting to a recent article that appeared in a local newspaper in which Mr Changala was quoted as having used disrespectful sentiments against Ms Wina following her response during the Vice President’s Question and Answer session in Parliament.

“As the women’s movement, we have known Mr Changala to be an activist and defender of

Ms Wina

Mr. Changala

women’s rights and therefore the manner in which his sentiments were raised were disturbing and devoid of someone who should be championing the end to women’s discrimination,” Ms Mulenga said.

She said Ms Wina remains Zambia’s first female Vice President and the women’s movement in Zambia is proud to have nurtured an activist and a leader that has attained such a

high position in the corridors of power dominated by men.

“As a product of the women’s movement, Ms. Wina served as chairperson of NGOCC, where our principles and values clearly point to a kind of transformation that any progressive country aspires to witness and this is a fact that can never be erased with the passage of time,” she said.

However, Ms Mulenga said,

as an organisation we find the personal attacks against the Vice President extremely unfortunate.

She said the NGOCC has noted with growing concern the unfavourable and hostile environment for women in politics.

Ms Mulenga said while Ms Wina was part of the entire Government machinery, it was unfair to blame her personally for the failure of the State.

She said the mention of her late husband exemplified the deeply entrenched patriarchy by Mr Changala which suggested that husbands were the ones that impart values, morals and influence on how women should be modelled.

“This is the patriarchy that NGOCC has been fighting since 1985, when the organisation was founded by a few women including, Ms. Wina. We therefore call for a more holistic approach in demanding for accountable and transparent leadership that is devoid of any chauvinism and personal attacks,” Ms Mulenga said.

ZCCM-IH mops up 80kg gold

By NOEL IYOMBWA ZCCM-IH has managed to mop up in excess of 80 kilogrammes of gold in Mwinilunga, says Mines and Minerals Development Minister Richard Musukwa.

Mr Musukwa told parliament that mineral exploration were ongoing to determine the extent of the gold in the district.

He was responding to Serenje MP, Maxwell Kabanda, who wanted to know what specific measures Government was taking to harness the mining of manganese and gold to ensure that the country benefits from the resources.

The minister has meanwhile said Government was concerned with the continued

illegal mining of manganese in Serenje.

He said Government want manganese to contribute national development, hence it has put up measures to safeguard the mineral.

The minister told parliament that Government has provided a geographical mapping in Central Province and some parts of Luapula Province.

Mr Musukwa said Government has employed more officers in two provinces and in border points to curb smuggling of the mineral.

He also told the House that Government has written to the Zambia Police in all districts where there is manganese to ensure that only licensed entities are allowed to mine.

THE Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) yesterday launched the electronic inspection of the provisional register of voters that will enable voters verify their details.

ECZ Chief Electoral Officer, Kryticous Nshindano, said the exercise would start tomorrow, February 7 and will run up to May 7. He was speaking during a media briefing in Lusaka yesterday.

Mr. Nshindano explained that the electronic based inspection

of the provisional register of voters would involve the use of the website platform and phone USSD code.

He added that the electronic inspection would be available on two platforms that include dialling the USSD Code *214# available on all networks and also the use of internet-based ECZ online platform available on ovr.elections.org.zm for those with access to internet.

“The USSD works on all phones from the most basic phone to the most high-tech and expensive models as we have everyone covered. It is free

He warned the PF to watch out for professional propagandists employed by the opposition who would plant divisive material in the media to cause confusion and division.

Mr Mwamba who is PF deputy national mobilisation chairperson said an aggressive propaganda scheme by the known enemies of the Patriotic Front (PF) aimed at stirring up divisions in the party has been launched and attributed allegations that he insulted party secretary general and the president to him.

Mr Mwamba said “a known political party headed by a perpetual loser has resorted to silly propaganda out of desperation because they have realised that they are losing the August 12 general elections.”

He said in an interview that desperation, lack of visionary leadership, and bitterness has engulfed the opposition political party because they have realised that they will never make it in August.

Mr Mwamba was reacting to social media reports that he had turned on PF Secretary-General, Davis Mwila by warning him to stop mentioning his name anyhow as he was not cheap.

A report containing abusive and insulting words against Mr Mwila attributed to Mr Mwamba was widely shared on social media platforms yesterday.

But when contacted both the SG’s office and

Mr Mwamba expressed ignorance of the purported altercation.

Mr Mwamba said, “That is just propaganda by the enemies of PF. They know that they are losing again in August and they have resorted to this silly propaganda out of desperation of course to cause divisions. They are really scared of PF.” He also said the desperation exhibited by the known opposition party was testimony that they were scared that since they had failed to form government in the past, it would be their end because their members were becoming impatient with their continued failures which had characterised the party since its formation in 1998.

And PF media director Sunday Chanda said it was not true that Mr Mwamba and Mr Mwila had an altercation.

Mr Chanda said being an election year, the sowers of discord have teamed up and targeted the ruling party in its inflammatory scheme poised to cast all sorts of aspersions, malice and propaganda.

“It’s definitely fake news.

I would have heard about it.

Its fake news,” Mr Chanda said.

He said the primary objective of the people behind such propaganda was to cause confusion among PF members.

Mr Chanda however said that the party was aware of every step they plan and they would not succeed.

Mambilima bemoans loss of 2 judges Mr Musukwa “We have also cancelled all dormant licences, to pave way for serious investors and Government intends to increase mineral royalty,” he said.

Meanwhile, Mr Musukwa

said that in May last year, Kabundi Resources commenced a trial mining of manganese in Serenje and that to date 12, 000 tonnes of manganese has been mined.

for everyone who registered as a voter to use and highly interactive without any internet connection or data needed,” he said.

Mr Nshindano said the internet-based platform was a build up from the online prevoter registration exercise and would provide a convenient way of verification.

He advised that those who would find irregularities on their voter’s card would have to wait for the physical inspection of the register of voters to correct the details.

Mr Nshindano said the ECZ

would conduct a physical inspection of the provisional register of voters on from March 29 to April 2, 2021 He said during the same period, other services would be offered such as replacement of lost or damaged voter’s cards, transfers for those who would like to change their polling stations and removal of the deceased voters from the register.

Mr Nshindano added that the ECZ would also receive objections and appeals during the same period.

By GRACE CHAILELESOETSA THE loss of two senior judges in a space of two months is simply unbearable because it takes a very long time to train and develop one, Chief Justice Irene Mambilima has lamented.

Ms Justice Mambilima described the death of Supreme Court Judge Elizabeth Muyovwe barely two months after the Judiciary lost Constitutional Court Judge Enoch Mulembe as devastating.

Judge Muyovwe 64, died on Sunday, January 31, 2021 at Maina Soko Military Hospital after an illness and was put to rest yesterday at Memorial Park in Lusaka.

Speaking during a valedictory service held at the Supreme Court yesterday, Justice Mambilima said Judge Muyovwe acquitted herself with distinction and in the fear of God in the 40 years of practicing law.

"While serving as High Court judge, Judge Muyovwe

was confronted with a novel matter which had involved the discharge of two Zambia Air Force officers from service on account of the fact that the two had suffered the misfortune of contracting HIV. "Judge Muyovwe seriously considered this matter and came to a conclusion that ZAF had erred in discharging the duo and had violated human rights of the officers," she said.

Solicitor General Abraham Mwansa said Judge Muyovwe carried out her duties credibly without being blemish.

"Judge Muyovwe had a keen sense of mission, patriotism and dedication. She was honest, God-fearing and welcoming but impenetrable," Mr Mwansa said.

The late Judge leaves behind four children and was scheduled to retire on March 12, this year.

She founded the National Legal Aid Clinic for Women in 1990 and immediately became its first coordinator on a part time basis and later on took a full time role.

ICOZ DEFENDS FR. LUPUPA

T

By KALUNGA MWAPE

Tel: +260 211 243527

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

THIS IS HYPOCRISY WHAT is wrong with us Zambians?

A simple figurative statement, by one Jesuit Priest, sends the whole country into paroxysms of self-righteous indignant outrage in the name of democratic virtue.

Indeed, absurdity is suggesting that Father Lastone Lupupa was suggesting rigging the August 2021 elections!

Anybody who has been to school, or indeed anybody who has read the Bible must be familiar with figurative speech, which exaggerates in order to make a point.

For example Mathew 18:9 says very clearly that if your eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away.

Indeed Mathew 5:30 says “And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.” ... It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.”

No single church today, nor indeed in those days, took the extreme measures proposed by the Bible because these are essentially figurative and symbolic, therefore not literal, but metaphorical.

By definition, a metaphor is not supposed to be translated literary.

According to Wikipedia, a metaphor means: A figure of speech that, for rhetorical effect, directly refers to one thing by mentioning another. It may provide clarity or identify hidden similarities between two different ideas.

Metaphors are often compared with other types of figurative language, such as antithesis, hyperbole, metonymy and simile.

It is therefore against this background that the pent-up anger against Fr. Lupupa must be seen.

As a priest, the orders of office offer him licence and an opportunity to be visionary and advise his flock on pertinent issues and in this regard he foresees calamity if the electorate, out of their free will, place in office individuals who are unsuited to the task.

There was nothing wrong in his stating this fact. Just as there was nothing wrong with many psychiatrists and preacher men who warned that Donald Trump was unsuited for the office of President because of his narcissistic tendency.

The truth has come to pass. The United States of America which is supposed to serve as a beacon of democracy and a leader of the free world, has descended into a divided, fractured and unseemly republic where all manner of conspiracy theories exist.

It is nonsensical to suggest that Fr. Lupupa in addressing his motley of congregants was agitating, let alone promoting the notion of rigging elections.

The priest had every right to be allegorical in warning the congregation against voting unwisely. He demanded for strict inspection of the candidates on offer to ensure that integrity, love and goodwill were the key watchwords of those to be considered.

What is shocking and most hypocritical has been the harsh reaction to this prophesy as compared to the uncouth and uncivil language that some opposition supporters have used to describe the current leadership.

We agree with Mr. Peter Sinkamba when he states that: “The bottom line, from the sermon of Father Lupupa is that we, the politicians must change our message to our people. We should preach love, unity, peace, and prosperity instead of revenge and mayhem. As Father Lupupa stated, it is a lesser evil to rig an election in favour of a leader who preaches love, unity, peace and prosperity than to allow wicked politicians win an election and at the end of the day they cause mayhem and destruction in the nation.”

HERE is need to understand clearly the context in which the Catholic Priest Fr. Lastone Lupupa stated that some people with rage and driven by revenge should never get into State House before castigating him on political grounds, the Independent Church of Zambia (ICOZ) has said.

Some Zambians have castigated Fr. Lupupa following a video that has gone viral saying that it was better to rig elections than allow some people who are self-centered, bitter and full of vengeance to rule Zambia.

But ICOZ president, David Masupa told the Daily Nation in an interview that there is need to understand that Zambia is a Christian nation and lives by the characteristics of Christ which is an assurance that Zambians need from all those aspiring to rule

Fr. Lupupa Zambia.

Bishop Masupa said it was therefore imperative that every person that intends to rule the country must uphold the Christian values which are integrity and humility among others.

He also emphasized that political leaders who do not reflect Christian values should not be allowed to rule the country.

Fr Lupupa has asked for forgiveness from Zambians and especially from those who were hurt by his remarks.

In the latest new video, Fr Lupupa who apologised and said he was a good citizen and has pursued peace and national unity all his life.

He said after reflection and counsel from the leadership of the Church, he has sought forgiveness from the people over what he termed his offensive remarks.

“I am a peace cadre, I am a patriot, I am a good citizen,” he said.

But opposition Economic and Equity Party (EEP) leader, Chilufya Tayali said Fr. Lupupa did not need to apologise because what he said was the truth.

Mr Tayali said he believed Fr Lupupa was forced to apologise.

“Fr. Lupupa said the truth and he didn’t need to apologise, but I know he was forced or intimidated to apologise. So, some of you who are jubilating that he has apologised you must know that he did that because of the life of a priest.

By NOEL IYOMBWA DIALYSIS machines across the country are not adequate to cater for all patients, Health Minister Jonas Chanda has told parliament.

He was responding to Chembe MP, Sebastian Kopulande, who wanted to know how many dialysis machines there were at UTH and other medical facilities.

He said that University Teaching Hospital (UTH) in Lusaka has 19 machines while

31 machines were distributed to other parts of the country.

Dr Chanda said that Ndola Teaching Hospital has five, Kitwe eight, Livingstone General Hospital seven while Mansa General Hospital has four.

He said others are Chipata with four, Lusaka’s Levy Mwanawasa Teaching Hospital two and Kasama General Hospital four.

The minister said that Lusaka Specialised Hospital which is yet to be commissioned will have 10 machines.

Dr Chanda said that there are

23 machines in private health facilities across the country.

He said that plans were under way to extend renal services to five more health facilities, namely, Lewanika General Hospital, Nchanga North Hospital, Kabwe Central Hospital and Chinsali General Hospital and Lusaka specialised hospital.

Dr Chanda told the house that Government has introduced training of health personnel to ensure that renal services were implemented across the country.

Be firm, Police told

…as Zambia goes to polls

By PETER SICHALI LAW enforcement agencies should be firm and professional in maintaining peace ahead of this year's general elections, former Inspector General of Police Martin Malama has said.

He said they should not hesitate to deal with with those propagating violence regardless of who they were in society.

Dr Malama, who is Kanchibiya Member of Parliament (MP), said there was need to ensure that confidence was instilled in the electoral

system by ensuring that proponents of political violence were dealt with.

He said the election period should not stop people from going about their normal businesses.

"Citizens should be allowed to choose leaders in a non-violent environment.

There should be a peaceful atmosphere," Dr Malama said.

He said Zambia as a Christian nation should uphold politics of nonviolence ahead of this year's general elections.

Dr Malama said it was unfortunate that some power-hungry politicians were propagating a violent

approach to politics.

"We should all condemn a situation where violence becomes a tall order because this scares away women and youths from participating in decision-making," he said.

Meanwhile, Dr Malama has urged political parties to adopt safe ways of campaigning to protect people from contracting Covid-19.

He said political

gatherings could be a super spreader of the virus, hence the need to be extra careful.

"Politicians should have a conscience and avoid political gatherings that may put lives of citizens at risk," Dr Malama said.

He said politicians should utilise print and electronic media in campaigning. "It is selfishness to physically be on the ground and put people together," Dr Malama said.

are forced to apologise because of the three vows. That is a vow of chastity, the vow of poverty and the vow of obedience where you need to accept what your superior tells you even if you do not believe in it. So he was probably forced by his superiors to apologise, otherwise deep down his heart he knows that he did not say anything wrong,” Mr Tayali said.

He said Fr Lupupa’s comments was figurative adding that , “If one says, I cannot work with Mr Hakainde Hichilema, I would rather sell my soul to the Devil than working with him, does it really mean that you are going to sell your body in actual sense?

The answer is no! In the same vein, Fr Lupupa did not say it was good rigging election, his comments were blown out of proportion. His emphasis was in forgiveness for those vying for the highest office of the land. He was preaching peace and forgiveness.”

Manganese plant in Kapiri advances

By JOHN KOMBE THE manganese processing plant being set up by a Chinese mining company in Kapiri Mposhi will soon be operational, says Central Province Permanent Secretary, Bernard Chomba.

Mr Chomba said the plant was being set up by Chi Metals, which had completed construction and was awaiting the testing of the furnaces by technical staff.

He however said the technical team had delayed to arrive from China. He said that this had delayed the operationalization of the plant which was scheduled for December last year.

The only other delay, he said, was the connection of high voltage electricity to the plant, but it was now resolved and the testing would commence.

Mr Chomba observed that the completion of the plant would enhance growth in sectors such as transport and hospitality.

He also envisaged growth in the mining of manganese as miners would now have a processing plant within reach.

He observed that the setting up of the manganese processing plant was in line with Government’s agenda of value addition.

Mr Chomba said that the plant would therefore lead to increased mining activities and lead to increased revenue for the country.

And Director of Mines, Fred Banda, promised to follow the developments closely.

He noted that the undertaking was critical to the mining sector and as such needed to be monitored closely.

Chief Mulilo preaches peace

By PETER SICHALI POLITICIANS should conduct issue based campaigns devoid of character assassination ahead of this year's general elections, Chief Mulilo of Chama District has advised.

Chief Mulilo said politics of insults were a major cause of political violence and should not be encouraged.

The traditional leader said political violence has potential to cause voter apathy and should be avoided at all costs in this year's elections.

Chief Mulilo said politicians should base their campaigns on their manifestos and agenda for the development of the country.

"We expect to see political parties conducting campaigns based on real issues and their development agenda because no one will be voted based how much he has insulted the other.

"As the country heads for polls this year political players should refrain from politics of insults and character assassination because this has been identified as the major cause of political violence," he said.

Chief Mulilo said it was the responsibility of every Zambian to safeguard the peace the country has enjoyed over the years.

He advised against careless statements that have the potential to disrupt peace and security of the country.

Observe safety rules, mines advised

By SILUMESI MALUMO ALL mining firms must adhere to safety and health measures to avoid polluting the communities to avert costs that arise from treating affected people, Mines and Mineral Development Minister Richard Musukwa has said.

Mr Musukwa said mining firms were not supposed to operate against the mining guidelines thereby endangering lives.

The minister said when communities were affected due to negligence of mining

firms, Government come to save the people hence the huge amount of money is spent.

Government, he said, should not be subjected to spending money which could be channelled to other need areas.

Mr Musukwa said: “Would like to engage the mining companies to comply with various provisions of the law aimed at improving safety, health and environmental protection.”

“We need to fight pollution, fight accidents and we ensure that in the process we enhance productivity.

“That is why for us as the ministry issues of mine safety are critical. This is because we need to ensure that the process is being undertaken within the law ,” he said.

Simon Mwewa Lane Market 90p.c. complete

By KALOBWE BWALYA WORKS at Simon Mwewa Lane market in Lusaka are at 90 percent complete, Disaster Management and Mitigation Unit (DMMU) National Coordinator Chanda Kabwe has disclos ed.

He said the project would be completed and handed over to Government in April this year.

Mr Kabwe said final touches to be done included electrical installations, installations of toilet pans and systems, painting, supply and installation of alluminum louvers and stone cladding on the stairs.

In an interview with the Daily Nation, Mr Kabwe said works on the ablution block was at 95 percent, and assured that the project would be delivered as per schedule.

Mr Kabwe said Government was committed to ensuring that the project was quickly completed because the market

was an important component in the fight against street vending and Covid-19.

In November last year, Government through DMMU released funds towards the completion of Simon Mwewa Lane Market.

Mr Kabwe said the market had taken too long to complete because of Covid-19 outbreak which affected all sectors of the economy. He expressed happiness with the quality works done so far by the Defence Forces.

And project engineer, Major Mabvuto Lungu, said the project was at 88 percent complete and all the materials were readily available for the completion of the project.

The market being constructed by the Zambia Army is a 700 meters long double storey building that is expected to create over 2,500 trading spaces.

It is funded from both the treasury and donations made after the City Market got gutted.

ZRA TO REDUCE OUTSTANDING TRANSACTIONS …through new system

By BUUMBA CHIMBULU A SYSTEM to help reduce the number of outstanding transactions that contribute to the frequent automatic suspension of the agents’ accounts will this year be rolled out by the Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA).

The module will start with a pilot phase next month and final implementation is expected to be rolled out

by June this year, says ZRA Commissioner General, Kingsley Chanda.

Mr Chanda said the measure would ensure that an agent who was not officially appointed by the importer/ exporter would not have access to the system.

“Previously, importers and exporters would appoint agents manually and other unauthorised agents would clear goods without the knowledge of the importer or exporter.

“In case the importer or exporter defaults, the burden would be on the clearing company to settle the outstanding dues which has proved to be expensive and an unnecessary inconvenience for the Customs clearing industry,” he said in a statement.

Mr Chanda said the operationalisation of the new module on Asycuda World would require Customs clearing agents to obtain authority from the owners of Tax Payers Identification

Numbers (TPINs) through the ZRA platform before clearing the goods with Customs.

Ultimately, he said, ZRA wanted to ensure accountability and transparency in the import and export of good in and out of the country.

Mr Chanda said the new module would also help mitigate TPIN abuse by linking the TPIN of the Importer/ Exporter to the TPIN of the Appointed clearing agent.

He indicated that customs clearing agents were also poised to benefit from the new module because only

authorised persons will present or select their companies on the system.

Mr Chanda said ZRA had developed the new module in its quest to strengthen taxpayer focus and enhance Customer experience while improving controls. “The Authority has developed a module on the Customs management system that will now give access to importers and exporters to electronically appoint Customs clearing agents on the system with an option to drop and add others depending on their business needs,” he said.

Charcoal burners invade Kazungula forests

By ANDREW MUKOMA A TRADITIONAL leader in Kazungula District, Southern Province, has expressed concern at the increasing levels of indiscriminate cutting down of trees.

Headman Simukombo charged that there was rampant and illegal cutting down of trees for charcoal burning in his area by his subjects.

The Headman told the

Daily Nation in an interview that the situation was worrying and something must be done to stop the vice.

He lamented that the forests had become dens for illegal charcoal producers, mostly youths thereby posing a threat to the natural resource.

"My biggest concern is the cutting down of trees for charcoal by my people and the majority of those who are involved are young men. We need to sensitize them on the

High court rejects petition to review decision in MMD case

By GRACE CHAILE-LESOETSA LUSAKA High Court Judge Wilfred Muma, has declined to review his decision to dismiss a petition in which Mkaika constituency Member of Parliament (MP) Peter Phiri, was challenging his expulsion from opposition party, MMD. Mr Justice Muma said he could not review his decision to dismiss Mr Phiri 's petition on grounds that it was not signed and that the petitioner neglected to present any fresh evidence or sufficient grounds before him that would compel the Court to review its decision.

Mr Phiri, Muma Kabanda, MP for Serenje Central and Muchinga MP Howard Kunda had separately filed their petitions in

the Lusaka High Court and cited Ms Elizabeth Chitika as the respondent on behalf of MMD. The Mkaika lawmaker like two others was seeking similar declarations among them that his purported expulsions by the party dated August 18, 2020 was ultra vires Articles 1(3), 2, 11, 20 and 21 of the constitution of Zambian as amended by Act no 2 of 2016 , therefore, void and of no legal effect.

But Ms Chitika asked the Court to consolidate the three petitions involving all the three expelled MMD MPs. Ms Chitika stated that her application was a fit and proper case for Court to grant an order to consolidate the action with the matters in cause 2020/ HP/0969 and 2020/HP/0968 adding that the refusal by the court to consolidate the petitions would be prejudicial to the parties.

Mr Justice Muma, granted the application by Ms Chitika and consolidated the petitions.

However, in November 2020, Mr Justice Muma dismissed the petition involving Mr Phiri on grounds that it was not signed and was therefore irregularly before him.

But on December 3, 2020, Mr Phiri filed an affidavit in support of ex parte summons asking the Court to review its decision to dismiss the petition.

The petitioner admitted that

he had inadvertently neglected or omitted to sign one copy of the petition and that the same was erroneously filed into court and placed on the court record.

"That the irregularity noted by this honourable Court in its order of the 19th November, 2020 was merely an innocent omission on my part as I signed all the other copies of the petition prior to filing into court on 27th September, 2020,' he stated.

In his ruling , Mr Justice Muma said the High Court Act was very clear that it required the plaintiff or their advocate to sign a writ or summons before it was presented before the court.

“It is therefore of no bearing to this Court that the other copies of the petition were signed.

The mere fact that the petitioners alleged that he signed other copies of the petition does not stand out as material or fresh evidence. It still remains that the petitioner presented a petition that was irregular before me,” he said.

ZAMBIA APPLIES FOR DEBT PACKAGE

By BUUMBA CHIMBULU

GOVERNEMENT has applied for debt treatment under the Group of 20 (G20) the Common Framework which will facilitate Zambia’s engagement with all G20 and Paris Club creditors.

This reassures commercial creditors and encourages them to join the restructuring process.

Finance Minister, Bwalya Ng’andu, expressed confidence that debt treatment under the G20 Common Framework would help address Zambia’s challenges and support the country’s economic and financial recovery in the long­ term.

Dr Ng’andu in a statement stressed that returning to sustainable debt levels was a national priority for Zambia. ‘’Zambia is committed to transparency and equal treatment of all creditors in the restructuring process, and our application to benefit from the G20 Common Framework will hopefully reassure all creditors of our commitment to such treatment,” he said.

Secretary to the Treasury, Fredson Yamba, said Government

…under G20, Paris Club

Dr Ngándu had officially requested a debt treatment under the Common Framework agreed by the G20 major economies and the Paris Club in November last year.

Mr Yamba explained that the all G20 and Paris Club creditors were expected to coordinate their engagement with Zambia under the Common Framework with the objective of providing debt relief to

the country.

He said the newly adopted common framework for debt treatment beyond the G20 Debt Service Suspension Initiative (DSSI) is designed to facilitate timely and orderly debt treatment with broad creditor participation for DSSl-eligible countries.

“The framework has been endorsed by the G20 and the Paris

Club as part of a global response to the Covid-19 crisis in recognition that the short-term liquidity relief and fiscal space created by the DSSI will not, in all cases, be sufficient to address the significant public debt challenges some countries are facing,” he said.

Mr Yamba said debt treatment under the Common Framework, would be based on the conclusion of the Debt Sustainability Analysis.

He said was being prepared in collaboration with the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank in the context of International Monetary Fund programme discussions scheduled from February 11th 2021 to March 3rd 2021.

To stabilize the economy severely hit by the Covid-19 pandemic Zambia launched its Economic Recovery Plan 2020 2023 in December 2020 and will begin formal talks with the IMF on 11 February 2021 to negotiate an Extended Credit Facility programme.

GOVERNMENT has targeted to increase the manufacturing sector’s contribution to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to 36.12 percent by 2030, says Ministry of Commerce, Trade and Industry Permanent Secretary, Mushuma Mulenga.

Mr Mulenga said Government would also increase manufactures exports as a share of merchandise exports to 71 percent by 2030.

He said Government in consultation with the private sector, continued to put in place policies and measures which are aimed at spurring growth in the manufacturing sector.

He said this recently during the webinar organised by the Zambia Association of Manufactures (ZAM) on the Statutory Instrument (SI) No. 110 of 2020 which allows r suspension of customs duty on imported manufacturing inputs which cannot be sourced locally.

“I am, therefore, happy to see that the Zambia Association of Manufacturers has taken keen interest in encouraging its members to utilize this incentive to spur growth of the manufacturing sector in Zambia and support economic recovery,” Mr Mulenga said.

He said information from the Zambia Statistical Agency reporting that the manufacturing sector recorded a growth of 0.2 percent in the third quarter of 2020 was impressive.

Mr Mulenga said the sector recorded positive growth after being affected by the negative effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.

“According to Zambia Statistical Agency, Zambia imported an average of ZMW 21.6 billion per year worth of manufacturing inputs and intermediate goods in the period 2009 to 2018.

“This huge figure demonstrates that a number of manufacturing inputs cannot be sourced locally,” he said.

Mr Mulenga therefore said the amendment to the suspension on manufacturing input Regulation was to recognise special preferential tariff Agreements.

“Government in consultation with the private sector, continued to put in place policies and measures which are aimed at spurring growth in the manufacturing sector. One such measure is the Customs and Excise Suspension Manufacturing Input Regulation which has been in place as far back as 1994.

Absa total revenue posts 15p.c. growth

By BUUMBA CHIMBULU

ABSA Zambia plc financial year 2020 earnings bore the brunt of high risk weightings in widened credit impairments whose stock totalled K249.3million.

However, total revenue for the institution grew 15.3 percent to K1.4 billion supported by 8.7 percent stronger interest income supported by duration risk related investment in treasury assets.

This weighed its After Tax Profits (PAT) lower by 41.2 percent on an annual basis to K143.8 million.

Adding pressure to revenues were widening non-interest expenses that grew 64.1 percent to K1.2 billion weighed most likely by disease pandemic related spend, revaluation effect on foreign currency invoices and promotional spend on new

branch rollout throughout the year.

This is contained in the financial statement released by the Bank.

With steep depreciation of the Kwacha, exchange rate related costs remained a persistent theme across all commercial banks in 2020.

As a consequence, Absa’s cost to income ratio widened to 73 percent from 51 percent a year ago.

“Total revenue grew 15.3 percent to K1.4 billion supported by 8.7 percent stronger interest income supported by duration risk related investment in treasury assets and advances income reflecting the aggressive 22.2 percent growth in its loan book,” the Bank said.

Supporting a 9.2 percent upward growth in non-interest income was a 21.2 percent growth in foreign exchange trading earnings while fee and

commissions were flat compared to a year ago.

Commenting on result, the Kwacha Arbitrageur Magazine said the analysis effects of the central banks directive to eradicate unwarranted fees was an evident theme across the banking sector.

“It is highly likely that credit extension through relief packages in the COVID year coupled with revaluation effects in part impacting the foreign currency portions of loan books has been a consistent theme for asset book growth for many banks.

“Absa Zambia’s credit book furthered its aggressive expansion to K7.1 billion (FY20) from K5.9million (FY19),” the Magazine said.

Deterioration in Zambia’s fiscal posture leading to sovereign downgrade has not spared commercial banks in the country.

I’LL RECONTEST KANKOYO - MUSHIMBA

By ROGERS KALERO

I

WILL return soon and re-contest the Kankoyo parliamentary seat in Mufulira after recording significant recovery from the time I underwent several medical procedures, Brian Mushimba has said.

He was speaking in an interview from America.

Dr Mushimba was last year involved in a road traffic accident and had been undergoing several medical procedures to repair his arm.

He was later diagnosed with Covid-19, which he was recovering from.

He promised to foster unity in the constituency and continue with the development agenda initiated by President Edgar Lungu through.

Dr Mushimba, who is Higher Education Minister, indicated that his priority was to influence unity at the district and constituency levels.

"I believe that we need unity in our district so that our party, the PF remains strong and this is the first task I will undertake once Covid-19 is completely flushed out of my system and I get back to Kankoyo, the place dear to my heart" Dr Mushimba said.

He reaffirmed his intention to run for MP for a second term saying he wanted to continue developing Kankoyo constituency.

He said he was grateful to President Lungu for giving him chance to recover and for all his support during the difficult time he had been unwell.

And Dr Mushimba has said

the UPND should not resort to hate-speech or propaganda, but must clearly explain how they would fix the economic challenges in the country.

He said any leader aspiring to form government must exhibit humility and use palatable language during public rallies to inspire others as opposed to being bitter. ''It’s not propaganda, insults or using unpalatable language against other people during rallies that will fix the country's economy. It’s not an issue of saying Bally will fix it. It is explaining how you will fix it. ''The problem with our colleagues in the opposition, especially the UPND is that they are so emotional and always resort to hate-speech and unpalatable language. These people have nothing to offer,

but want to form government for their own selfish motives,'' he said.

Traders appeal for empowerment THE Association of Vendors and Marketeers (AVEMA) has appealed to Government to boost their business capital by providing them with soft loans.

In an interview in Kitwe, AVEMA president Abel Chikwa said the Covid-19 pandemic has badly hit the vendors and traders.

“Business is very bad as people are not buying and our perishable products like vegetables and tomatoes just go to waste as people are not buying because of the their reduced buying power.

“We are now appealing to Government to bail us out through soft loans under the Presidential Empowerment Initiative,” Mr Chikwa explained.

He explained that the marketers on the Copperbelt had not received any support under the presidential

empowerment programme and were hoping to be helped this year.

Mr Chikwa however stated that members have received empowerment funds from the area Member of Parliament Alexander Chiteme but it was not enough to significantly boost their businesses in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Meanwhile, Mr Chikwa has commended Government for the reduced electricity load shedding as traders were able to work for long hours and capture buyers who knock off late.

He said those running butcheries, salons and those selling drinks and other perishables that need refrigeration were able to run their businesses smoothly with the availability of electricity.

Traders and vendors had been hit by the long hours of load shedding that the country which interrupted the hours of conducting business.

Last week, ZESCO announced the end of load shedding - ZANIS

Mr Zulu

Mr. Zulu was former Minister of Justice and he served under late President Michael Chilufya Sata between 2011 and 2012. Before that, Mr. Zulu served as Deputy Minister of Land, Energy and Water Development in 2011.

He also served as the Secretary General of the United National Independence Party (UNIP) from 1995 to 2001.

Mr. Zulu was a patriotic Zambian who immensely contributed to the political landscape and the legal fraternity in Zambia. He has left a legacy of being humble, hardworking and a refined legal brain who discharged his duties in an exemplary manner.

However, many people, including the Minister of Justice, Mr Given Lubinda have eulogised the late Mr. Zulu for his work culture.

In this vein, I implore the current crop of politicians and lawyers to emulate Mr. Zulu’s resilience and passion for work to serve the country. His service to the people was above self. Ultimately, this is the way to go.

It has been said that the true measure of leadership is to serve others and Mr. Zulu did just that during his lifetime.

He was a humble man who accommodated everyone regardless of one’s political affiliation, tribe and race, among others.

Go well Mr. Zulu the gallant soldier of justice. You fought a good fight of faith. May his soul rest in eternal peace.

Works on market, bus terminus advance

By ANDREW MUKOMA ZAMBIA National Service (ZNS) Commandant Nathan Mulenga has expressed optimistic that with the pace and quality works going on at the Modern Market and Intercity Bus Terminus in Livingstone, his team will be completing the two projects in the next 30 days.

Lieutenant-General Mulenga however said the delay to complete the two facilities was as a result of administrative challenges.

Lt-Gen Mulenga said the works at the two projects had progressed well compared to the last visit he and his team made last year when they inspected the works.

He said that the works had moved steadfastly compared

to the way it was the last time he visited the sites.

“The last time we toured, the place was looking very depressing but today, you have seen for yourselves and the impression about the works is very good.

“I am positive that if they (working team at the site) can continue to work at this pace, with the quality of course that is attached to it, then the works will be complete within 30 days,” he said.

Earlier, during a courtesy call on Livingstone District Commissioner Pascalina Musokotwane, Lt-Gen Mulenga regretted the delay in completing the construction of the market and the bus terminus.

Lt-Gen Mulenga said that it was never the wish of his men to have delayed the completion, but that the team would work with time to complete the remaining works.

“You know there are a number of parties to these projects, we’ve got the consultant, we have got NAPSA as main client and of course Local Government.

So far you have seen that the pace has actually improved unlike in the past.

By ANDREW MUKOMA ACCESS to a number of public facilities is still a challenge for physically challenged persons in the tourist capital, says Livingstone Network for Organisations of Persons with Disabilities (LNOPD) says LNOPD coordinator, Gorge Mizinga, said despite the government launching the National Policy on Disability in 2016, most buildings in the city such as hospitals, schools, courts and banks do not have rumps to aid the movement of persons with disabilities.

Mr Mizinga told the Daily Nation in Livingstone that lack of access to various facilities was preventing the development of physically challenged persons.

He added that there was a need for inclusiveness for physically challenged persons if they were to positively contribute to the social and economic development of the country.

Mr Mizinga said gone were the days when the physically challenged were side-lined in various issues of human endeavours.

He noted that 56 years after the country got its independence, some structures were still not favourable for physically challenged persons.

Livingstone City Council Public Relations Manager, Melvin Mukela, on the other hand, said the local authority had engaged owners of buildings to consider modifying their structure to accommodate the physically challenged.

Mr Mukela said council building inspectors were on the ground to advise all those constructing public institutions to ensure that there was a provision for rumps for those using wheel chairs.

Permanent Secretaries were comes to promotions made appointed on merit and per- within the rank and file of the formance.

Daily Nation, Educating Zambia!

BIOLOGY On today’s pupil’s forum in Biology will look at the Cells.This topic is at Grade ten(10) level of the Zambian syllabus.At the end of this lesson,learners should able to: • Define a cell • Describe the structure of a plant and animal cells • Identify the difference between a plant cell and animal cell

CELLS Cells are too small to be seen by the naked eye. Therefore they are observed using microscopes. A microscope is an instrument used to magnify images of objects that are too small to be seen with the naked eye. There are two groups of microscopes. These are light and electron microscopes. The light microscope shows a simple structure of a cell while the electron microscope shows a detailed or ultrastructure of a cell. A cell is a basic unit of life or basic unit of a living organism or functional unit of a living organism.

Simple Structure of a Plant Cell and an Animal Cell

Cell membrane: This part is made of lipids and proteins and is responsible for controlling the substances that enter and leave the cells. It is adapted for this function by being selectively/partially permeable. This means it allows some substances to pass through it but prevents others from passing through. The substances that cross the cell membrane freely include gases (such as oxygen and carbon dioxide) and water because their molecules have small sizes. On the other hand, substances such as urea whose molecules are large do not freely cross the cell membrane but use special carrier proteins to do so.

Cytoplasm: This is a jelly-like fluid made of water and dissolved substances such as proteins, salts and sugars.

It contains suspended cell structures called organelles and is the site for cell activities.

Note: The three parts (nucleus, cytoplasm and cell membrane) are collectively called the protoplasm. The protoplasm is defined as the living part of the cell.

Mitochondrion (plural: mitochondria): These are rod-shaped or sausage-shaped structures in the cell. This is where respiration takes place. For this reason mitochondria are called the power house of the cell.

Ribosomes: These are small round structures in the cell where protein synthesis takes place. Some ribosomes float freely in the cytoplasm while others are attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum.

Similarities between animal and plant cells They both have cell membranes, cytoplasm and nucleus Differences between animal and plant cells

Absorption of water and mineral salts

•

Anchor the plant in the ground

Adaptations • Has an elongated outgrowth (long extension) which increases the surface area for faster diffusion during absorption.

• Absence of chloroplast to create more room for absorption.

• High concentration of mitochondria to provide energy for active absorption/transport of mineral salts. In addition, root hair cells are numerous which further increase their surface area.

Endoplasmic Reticulum: This is a network of membranes used for transportation of substances within the cytoplasm. There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum, namely smooth endoplasmic reticulum and rough endoplasmic reticulum. Rough endoplasmic reticulum has ribosomes on its surface and transports proteins.

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum has no ribosomes on its surface and transports lipids.

Golgi Bodies: These are a pile of flattened vesicles which modify and carry proteins such as enzymes from the sites of synthesis to the sites of reaction. They are collectively called the Golgi apparatus.

Chloroplasts: These are oval-shaped structures found in plant cells. They carry out photosynthesis. They contain a green pigment called chlorophyll which absorbs light energy for photosynthesis.

Vacuole: This is a fluid filled space inside the cytoplasm of a plant cell. It contains a fluid called cell sap (a solution of sugars and salts in water) and is surrounded by a membrane called tonoplast.

The concentration of the cell sap plays a role in the movement of water into and out of the cell.

Cell wall: This is the outermost boundary of the plant cell. It is made of a substance called cellulose. It is important for protection against damage and prevention of bursting when the plant cell gains a lot of water. It also gives shape to the plant cell. It is fully permeable to all substances.

Detailed structure/Ultrastructure of a Plant Cell

•

Cell Specialization New cells are formed from already existing cells by cell division in an organism. At first, they are all similar in structure.

But in order to be suited for their functions they have to undergo cell specialization. This is a process by which a cell undergoes specific changes in structure and chemical composition of the cytoplasm in order to perform a specific function. Examples of specialized cells are ciliated cells, root hair cells, xylem vessels, guard cells, nerve cells, muscle cells, white blood cells and red blood cells.

2

Nucleus: This part is responsible for controlling cell activities and storage of genetic information on threads of DNA called chromosomes. It is surrounded by a double membrane called the nuclear membrane which has openings called nuclear pores. The inside of the nucleus contains a fluid called the nucleoplasm and a dense body of DNA called the nucleolus.

MYANMAR COUP: DOES THE ARMY HAVE EVIDENCE OF VOTER FRAUD? MILITARY coup fuelled by allegations of electoral fraud has led to the removal and arrest of Myanmar's democraticallyelected leaders.

The army's move has been condemned inside and outside Myanmar, also known as Burma, but do its claims about voter fraud stand up to scrutiny?

A

What fraud is alleged to have taken place?

Central to the military’s claims are the voter lists, on which a person’s name must

The dye contains silver nitrate which stains the skin on exposure to sunlight and is described as “resistant to attempts to remove it using water, soap, liquids, home-cleansing, detergents, bleaching product, alcohol,

What has the army said?

In the days before the coup, the military declared that more than eight million cases of potential voting fraud had been uncovered relating to the November 8 election.

Aung San Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy (NLD) won a landslide victory with more than 80 percent of the seats at stake.

“There was terrible fraud in the voter list during the democratic general election,” General Min Aung Hlaing announced on TV after seizing power. The country’s election commission failed to address their findings, says the army.

Independent observers agree there may have been significant errors in the voter rolls, but no evidence that people actually committed electoral fraud has been presented.

The commission has also pushed back, saying there is no evidence to support the army’s claims.

The US-based Carter Centre, which had more than 40 observers visiting polling stations on election day itself, said voting had taken place “without major irregularities being reported by mission

Aung San Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy (NLD) won a landslide victory with more than 80% of the seats at stake. have distorted the lists in some areas, with voters registering outside their usual locality, unable to return home.

Myanmar begin implementing restrictions on travel as Covid cases began to increase in the second half of 2020.

This, says one local election monitoring group, Phan Tee Eain, may have resulted in “inflated” lists in some areas because “they couldn’t go back due to Covid.”

It could have meant names appearing more than once on the overall voter lists. But there is no evidence that this led to deliberate acts of multiple voting.

Claims about ID cards

appear so they can take part in the election.

These are compiled by local administrators and are based on previous election lists and other official data.

A draft was released in the summer of 2020 and an amended one again in October, which led to a period for corrections to be issued. The final lists were posted outside polling stations.

The military claims to have found widespread inconsistencies and many cases of ineligible voters.

In the evidence it has presented so far, it says there are nearly 10.5 million instances of irregularities.

The military says it aggregated lists from different towns and then identified entries where the national registration number had been repeated - either under the

withheld the data, citing privacy concerns.

What prevents repeat voting?

The army claims these lists reveal instances where it is possible the same person could have voted more than once - by being registered in different places.

However, the national election commission says this would not have been possible because there were effective safeguards in place.

“These persons could not cast their votes many times in a single day,” it said in a statement, pointing to the indelible ink administered to voters’ fingers, which lasts at least a week.

Indelible ink is used in many elections around the world, and in Myanmar was provided by

acetone or other organic solvents.”

The election commission also pointed to strict Covid-19 travel restrictions, which would have made it particularly hard to vote

The military has also claimed that the voter lists contain almost five million names without associated national registration cards.

This was used to cast doubt on people’s right to vote,

A woman holds up her inked finger after voting in multiple locations.

These restrictions may also

although it’s not been clarified how this might have happened.

It’s possible to get on the

voter list without official ID on the recommendation of local officials in an area, according to the election commission.

These officials must certify in a letter that someone is a local resident.

However, it’s unlikely this would by itself account for 4.6 million discrepancies.

The ID card itself is also not required at the polling station if citizenship can be demonstrated with another form of documentation.

It’s important to note that the national registration card is not available to everyone in the country, like the Rohingya minority in Rakhine state, who were largely disenfranchised.

Voting was cancelled in some areas here, and in other regions which are home to minority groups, with officials citing security issues.

Errors and omissions but not widespread fraud

It’s not the first time there have been issues over voter lists in Myanmar.

In 2015, when Aung San Suu Kyi’s NLD also won a big majority, there were questions raised about the integrity of the voter lists, including people whose names were missing just a week before the vote.

It was also known that in the months before this latest election in Myanmar, there were mistakes on the electoral roll.

But clear weaknesses in voter registration in a poor country with fractured bureaucratic systems do not amount to deliberate fraud on the scale alleged by the military. – BBC.

US missionary jailed for sex crimes in Kenya orphanage WASHINGTON - A US man has been sentenced to more than 15 years in prison for abusing underage girls in an orphanage in Kenya.

Christian missionary Gregory Dow set up the orphanage with his wife in 2008.

“Gregory Dow was the proverbial wolf in sheep’s clothing,” said the FBI’s Michael Driscoll.

Last year, Dow pleaded guilty in the US to four counts of engaging in illicit sexual conduct with a minor in a foreign place.

The orphanage was partly funded by churches in Lancaster county in the US state of Pennsylvania and was in operation for almost a decade before Dow fled in 2017.

The FBI acted on a tip-off and Dow was charged in July

2019.

That tip-off was from a Kenyan woman living in the US who had returned to the area near the orphanage to care for her mother, reports the Washington Post.

The newspaper says Margaret Ruto found her family’s village “in uproar” after two girls, aged 12 and 14, had escaped the orphanage and shared stories of sexual abuse.

She “turned detective” and took down the testimonies of the abused girls herself.

Acting on the information provided by Ruto, the FBI confirmed that Dow had sexually abused at least four teenage girls between 2013 and 2017.

“Two of the girls were as young as 11 years old when the abuse began.

Dow was already a known sex offender before he started the orphanage.

In 1996 he pleaded guilty to assault with intent to commit sexual abuse, for which he received two years’ probation and was ordered to register as a sex offender for a decade. – BBC.

OUTRAGE AS ZIM ASKS CITIZENS TO PAY FOR COVID-19 VACCINE THEMSELVES

H

ARARE Zimbabweans were left outraged on Wednesday evening after a senior government official said citizens will have to pay for their Covid-19 vaccine shots.

The country, which recently said it had put together US$100 million for the procurement of vaccines for 60 percent of its population, is expecting to recover this money from citizens.

In an interview with Zimbabwe Television Network (ZTN), Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube said government will only cater for frontline workers and the most vulnerable members of society.

"Look, private citizens obviously would have to pay for the vaccine as we have maintained the vaccine is actually cheaper than some of the

personal private equipment (PPE) that they are procuring.

"So, there will be some payment model so that government can recoup the cost of procurement."

Ncube said this will also help government to raise

enough resources to cover the entire population beyond the 10 million herd immunity target.

"Paying something for the vaccine from private citizens is very important so that we can cover those who cannot

afford at all," said Ncube.

He said the ministry of health will clarify those who would get the vaccine for free.

Some Zimbabweans took their outrage to Twitter questioning the rationale of making people pay for the vaccine.

Exiled former minister Professor Jonathan Moyo questioned the logic of making people pay and at the same time targeting to achieve herd immunity.

Lawyer and Kent Law School academic Alex Magaisa believes corrupt government officials will count themselves first among "the most vulnerable members of society."

However, others felt there was no need for government to subsidise citizens as the results of previous subsidies were the rapid decline in buying power of the local currency. – FIN24.

RAMAPHOSA ON LIQUOR SALES BAN: 'It's impossible to please everyone' JOHANNESBURG - Hard choices must be made, and it's impossible to please everyone, President Cyril Ramaphosa has said in an affidavit filed in the Western Cape High Court this week.

Ramaphosa was responding to a legal challenge by South African Breweries (SAB) and others to a recent ban on the sale of alcohol.

In his affidavit, the president backed Cabinet's decisions as well as the contents of an earlier affidavit filed

by Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs Nkosazana DlaminiZuma.

Ramaphosa said the National Coronavirus

Command Council (NCCC) is not a decision-making body – rather, it coordinates the government's response, which is based on in-depth discussions from many perspectives.

"I cannot do justice to the debates and discussions that occur in the NCCC and Cabinet, which have markedly improved our collective response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Different ministers would argue for the perspective of their departments, only to have other ministers identify unexpected consequences… Hard choices must be made, and it is impossible to please everyone."

In anticipation of the

second wave of the pandemic, measures were adopted by government aimed at "achieving the intricate balance between the preservation of life on the one hand, and the preservation of livelihood on the other," Ramaphosa said.

It was also important to remember that it was December, and the people of the country had had an exceptionally hard year, he added. Government has faced challenges to its ban on the sale of liquor by both winemakers body Vinpro and SAB (alongside other applicants). In both cases, despite the easing of restrictions, the challenges appear to be going ahead. – FIN24.

Biden promises to rebuild ties with African Union WASHINGTON US President Joe Biden promised to rebuild his country's partnership with the African Union (AU) moments after he delivered his first foreign policy speech since taking office.

His predecessor, Donald Trump, sparked a row in 2018 over his alleged use of the word "shithole" to describe African nations.

Trump later denied that he is racist.

The White House yesterday tweeted a video of President Biden's remarks to the

continental body ahead of its 34th summit.

He said: “My administration is committing to rebuilding our partnership around the world and reengaging with international institutions like the African Union.

“We also must confront the serious challenges we face.

That includes investing more in global health, defeating Covid-19 and working to prevent, detect and respond to future health crises, and partnering with the African CDC and other institutions to advance health security." – BBC.

Same old story

in the squad till fans were given an opportunity to beat “Micho” to his game in the friendly at Nkoloma Stadium. How did the “rejected” Chama become captain of the squad?

Days before the tournament, “Micho” did not know his first eleven and it was evident in all the four matches Zambia played at the tournament that the Serbian Wolf was doing more of experiments than anything. He had more of a reactive approach to his tactics than a proactive one.

The Morocco quarterfinal game just exposed the loopholes that had been hidden in the first three fixtures. “Micho” had been a strong preacher of Zambia lacking mental strength when he just arrived at the airport and the match against the “Atlas Lions” justified his sentiments.

Conceding two goals in the first ten minutes was uncalled for. But why did he prepare the team psychologically all this while?

The CHAN competition truly exposed the fact that “Micho” has a lot of work to do. Zambia is lacking in the different departments and he must do anything possible in the next few weeks to prepare for the crucial Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Algeria and Zimbabwe next month.

Going forward, this is not the time to fire anyone, possibly part of the problems that we currently have were caused by the hiring and firing of coaches in short periods. Six coaches in six years is not good at all. A coach needs to be given ample time to build a formidable squad although “Micho” is so far not showing signs of building a strong foundation.

Maybe let's exercise some patience with him, he could just be the “savior” we have long awaited.

It is hoped the CHAN tournament has opened our eyes and showed us that we have so much work to do. Our hope is that soonest, we might go back to the glory days.

PIRATES

’ BACK JUST at the time when the nation needed some refreshing news, away from the disturbing Covid-19 updates, Zambia was booted out of the African Nations Championship.

For the third time in a row, the Chipolopolo once again were booted out at the quarterfinal stage last Sunday.

Issues of getting back to the drawing board (which should be full by now) and the blame game has started, with some even calling for the head of coach Milutin 'Micho' Sredojevic.

Surprisingly, some have already called for the return of current Lusaka Dynamos coach Wedson 'Wada Wada' Nyirenda. This has always happened whenever Zambia has lost or been eliminated in various competitions.

A look at the preparations and the performance in all four games at the CHAN 2021, can give us a hint as to why Zambia did not reach the semi-finals.

Team selection had been a problem from the start, the uncertainty that surrounded it was something that showed that the coach did not know what would be the best squad We all remember how the All Stars versus The Rest match showed that “Micho” might have snubbed key players. One might question how the same players who were “imposed” on him by fans became key at the tournament.

Green Eagles goalkeeper Allan Chibwe was only called up when the Chipolopolo were battered 2-0

by Uganda in the four-nations tournament. Chibwe was the first choice goalkeeper at the tournament.

Defenders Clement Mwape and Adrian Chama played all the games in which they were available for selection.

These had been the same players who were not
