MINISTER SAYS NO TO MINING IN LOWER ZAMBEZI

By SILUMESI MALUMO

O mining activities will be allowed in Lower Zambezi as this would have a negative impact on the eco-system, Minister of Lands and Natural Resources Jean Kapata has said. The minister said

Government would not listen to any calls for mining activities to actualise in the area because it was aware of the negative impact such activities had. Ms Kapata in an interview yesterday, said Zambia Environmental Management Agency (ZEMA) rejected the proposal after undertaking environmental assessment and that was final. She said Government would not allow the eco-system to be under threat because of selfish interests. “ZEMA did its environmental assessment after an investor showed interest to undertake mining activities in the area. After its assessment it found out that if mining was allowed then it would

have negative impact on the eco-system. So as Government, we shall go with what ZEMA had indicated. So what I can say is that ZEMA rejected the mining activities and no investor will be allowed in the area. “As people we need to consider the eco-system in whatever we want to do, we can not just do it for the sake of doing it, no. So this matter is over and we shall not allow anyone there,” she said. Recently, chief Mphuka of Luangwa appealed to Government to allow a mine to be established in the Lower Zambezi. Chief Mphuka said Luangwa was underdeveloped and lacks economic activities hence the need for the

mine to be set up quickly. A debate erupted after the Lusaka High Court gave a go ahead to a mining operation in the Lower Zambezi National Park with several people calling for the revocation of the license. But Chief Mphuka said those calling for the revocation of the mining permit had no understanding of the area. “I condemn certain chiefs who are saying this mine should not go ahead. It’s not in their chiefdom, the mine is in Senior Chief Mburuma’s chiefdom. These are the people that need to be asked first in Luangwa district,” Chief Mphuka said. He added that the recent media reports on the wildlife at the mining site were false.

Transporters call for minimum wage formation By PETER SICHALI GOVERNMENT through the Ministry of Labour should expedite the formulation of transport sector minimum wage to reduce the labour tension in the sector, Petroleum Association of Zambia (PTAZ) spokesperson Benson Tembo has said. And Mr Tembo has urged Government to stop renewing licenses for foreign truck drivers working in Zambia so as to create jobs for citizens. Mr Tembo has advised Zambian truck drivers working in South Africa to come back home to avoid risking their lives following continued attacks on foreign drivers working in that country. “We would only advise our

Mr Tembo “We would only advise our brothers that have gone to work in South Africa to come back home, there is enough space instead of risking their lives in a foreign land, moreover there are so many foreign drivers that have come to work in Zambia and our laws are very tolerant and the best they can do is come here under the prevailing conditions they will be preferred,” brothers that have gone to work in South Africa to come back home, there is enough space instead of risking their lives in a foreign land, moreover there are so many foreign drivers that have come to work in Zambia and our laws are very tolerant and the best they can do is come here under the prevailing conditions they will be preferred,” Mr Tembo said.

Mr Tembo said Government through the Ministry of Labour was working on coming up with a sector minimum wage to reduce the labor tension in the transport sector. Mr Tembo said most employers have not been following the industrial and labour relations Act hence need for industrial minimum wage. He has also urged the labour

federation such ZCTU and Federation of Trade Unions to encourage Transport sector unions to protect the interest of their members. He said the union for drivers should speed up the collective bargaining to come with up with a collective agreement to favor their members. Several tanker drivers from different companies on Thursday protested against travelling to South Africa for fear of being harmed. Foreign drivers have come under attack by rampaging mobs in South Africa who have accused them of taking their jobs and accepting poor conditions of service. The drivers have also complained of poor conditions of service and appealed to government to intervene.

Ono Savings ordered to refund members By BUUMBA CHIMBULU ONO Savings and Credit Association (OSCA) has been ordered to pay the investors the money they deposited into the company inclusive of interest. OSCA is also required to recover the loans owed to the entity. This is according to a plea agreement which has been concluded with the promoters of OSCA pursuant to which the seizure on the accounts has been lifted by DEC following a directive

from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP). In a joint statement by the Bank of Zambia (BoZ) and the Drug Enforcement Commission (DEC), members of the public with claims are advised to contact Ono Savings and Credit Association. “The DEC and the BoZ wish to inform the public that there has been substantial progress made in the matter regarding OSCA by the office of the DPP. “The DEC and the BoZ call upon the promoters of OSCA to comply with all the

Bank of Zambia

terms of the Plea Agreement and ensure that the interests of investors are duly protected,” the statement said. Other terms of the Plea Agreement include the requirement for OSCA to periodically report to the AntiMoney Laundering Unit of

the DEC and to the National Prosecutions Authority (NPA) on the status of its obligations under the said agreement. Meanwhile, the statement said regarding Comsave, the matter was still under consideration by the Director for Public Prosecutions.

‘Killer’ soldier sent to High Court By CHARLES MUSONDA A ZAMBIA Army officer accused of killing a medical doctor in a gruesome murder believed to be a crime of passion has been committed to the High Court for trial. Lieutenant Nigel Musonda Mwaba, 33, of 392/A Barlastone in Lusaka, was committed yesterday when he appeared in the Lusaka Magistrates’ Court following his arrest on November 28, 2020 after being on the run for about a month. Particulars of offence are that Mwaba, between October 24 and 26, 2020, murdered 47-year-old Dr. Tasila Tembo Peters who was his lover. A chained and handcuffed Mwaba was driven to the court premises around 08:30 hours by the anti-robbery officers after which he appeared before Principal Resident Magistrate Mwaka Mikalile who allocated the case to Magistrate Chinunda Chiwaula. Dr. Tembo, who was reportedly murdered in cold blood, went missing from home and a few days later her decomposed body was found near Mikango Barracks with the head severed from the body. Mwaba was apprehended about three weeks ago after he was cornered at the

late Dr. Tembo’s grave at Leopards Hill Memorial Park. Clad in a light grey top track and charcoal grey bottom track, a gloomy looking Mwaba told Magistrate Chiwaula that he understood the murder charge after it was read out to him. Mr. Chiwaula later told him that the case he is facing is only tried by the High Court. Public prosecutor Hermit Maloza then informed the court that the Director of Public Prosecutions has issued instructions committing the accused person to the High Court for trial and Mr. Chiwaula accordingly committed him. After his committal, Mwaba applied to the court to grant him an opportunity to be taken to hospital for ear treatment. He said his experience in detention caused injury and damage to his ears, which keep on discharging pus and blood and that he has lost hearing on one side because of the damage. Mwaba also said he was taken to Sikanze police camp where he was seen by a nurse who discovered that he had an infection in his ears. He said when his family asked for a copy of a medical report they could not be given and that it was later torn. Mr. Chiwaula then instructed the State to ensure Mwaba undergoes necessary medical attention because it is within his right that he is treated. He was later driven away from the court premises while lying down in a police van.

Replaced paracetamol not expired By OLIVER SAMBOKO THE Southern Africa Students and Youth Development Association (SASYDA) has clarified that the paracetamol that was recalled by ZAMRA was not expired but the drugs were only recalled because some batches failed the appearance test. Association President, Ibrahim Kabwe Mwamba, said following various reports on the issue, SASYDA took upon itself to check the facts where it was discovered that the paracetamol was recalled because of discolouring and not being expired. “SASYDA would like to clarify that the paracetamol that was recalled by ZAMRA was not expired. After checking the facts, it has been established that actually the reason the paracetamol was recalled was because some batches failed the appearance test hence some tablets were discolouring,” he said. He said the occurrence was not extraordinary because in the last one year, ZAMRA had confirmed that it recalled 4000 different products from

different suppliers. “The good news is that the supplier honeybee has adhered to the rules and regulations of the regulator and replaced the entire consignment of paracetamol, “he said. This week, Honeybee Pharmacy replaced 19, 900 of 500mg tablets of paracetamol that it supplied to Government worth $700, 000, after it was awarded a $17 million contract to supply Health Centre medical kits to the Ministry of Health. According to a delivery note dated December 15, 2020, Honeybee Pharmacy delivered 19,900 of 500mg tablets of Panadol to Medical stores as replacement for the tablets BP 500mg batch numbers PPYP03 and PPYP-04 manufactured by Prashi Pahrma Pvt Limited of India. In September, ZAMRA) director general Bernice Mwale ordered HoneyBee Pharmacy to recall all batches of Paracetamol tablets which it supplied to the Ministry of Health because the supplied medicine did not meet specifications.

‘I WAS ARRESTED’ From Page 1

Speaking at a press briefing at Democracy House in Lusaka yesterday, Dr Mumba said he was arrested on December 10, 2020 and driven to Lubumbashi in the night where he was on December 11 interviewed for five hours on several allegations bordering on treason. Dr Mumba said he was placed under house arrest (I was placed under restriction) at a hotel. He said none of the allegations raised by the Congolese investigative wings contained any truth. “I was apprehended at a lodge in Kolwezi by a huge delegation of contingent of soldiers who surrounded the lodge and drove me through the night to Lubumbashi where I was placed under restriction in a hotel room,”Dr Mumba said. Dr Mumba said his response to the allegations were forwarded to Kinshasa. He said the allegations levelled against him were fed to DRC security by powerful people who planned that he

should be charged with treason in that Country. Dr Mumba said he went on a hunger strike to push for government intervention. He said his party is determined to ensure that people responsible for lying to the DRC government are tracked down. “It is clear that some powerful evil men and women lied to DRC security so that I can be arrested and charged with treason and probably sentenced to death but we are determined to ensure that these people are tracked down and this process has begun,” Dr Mumba said. The MMD leader said he could not give details of what he went through because he did not want to scare the nation. And Dr Mumba has thanked government for the strategic role it played in securing his release. Dr Mumba has also thanked two Presidents one from SADC region and the other one from east Africa and the International human rights bodies for securing his release.

‘BEEF UP MINE SECURITY’ ...`Deploy ZNS, Zambia Army to guard KasenseBy SILUMESI MALUMO

OVERNMENT must deploy Zambia National Service and Zambia Army to tighten security at Kasenseli to stop illegal mining activities, the Small-Scale Miners Association of Zambia has said. Association president Kunda Chani said it was prudent that the security was beefed up at the gold mining area in order to completely eradicate the illegal activities. Mr Chani was concerned with the recent invasion of some villagers in the rich gold area, saying that such activities continued then the country would not benefit from the resource. He said in an interview

yesterday, gold had been identified as a strategic resource which can help revive the economy, therefore, there was need for stringent measures to protect it. Early this month over 500 illegal miners had broken into the perimeter wire fence at Kasenseli and forced their way into the mining area at Kasenseli gold mine in Mwinilunga looting undisclosed quantities of alluvial gold. The illegal miners were reported to have come from a camp in the nearby camp called Kabanda B Township in Mwinilunga district. District commissioner Arnot Mapulanga confirmed that the illegal miners found it easy to gain entry into the mine area by simply un-

screwing the joints in the wire fence. But Mr Chani suggested for this not to occur in the near future, there was need to tighten the security at the gold area. He said that ZNS and the army had proved their capability of enforcing security whenever they were directed to, therefore, it would be prudent that they were deployed in order to beef the security with police officers who were earlier deployed. “What is happening there is not good for the country. If illegal activities continue like that then there is nothing we shall benefit as a country. For me I think deploying ZNS and army because there is already police officers there it will mean that there will

be tight security and no such activities will take place,” Mr Chani said.

ZRA projects K2 billion revenue loss POLICE SUMMON HH By KETRA KALUNGA

THE country's projected revenue loss of K5.7 billion as a result of the Covid-19 will reduce to K2 billion, Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA) Commissioner General Kingsley Chanda has said. Mr. Chanda said the authority from 2017 continued achieving its revenue target

and even exceeding. He revealed that last month, ZRA went above its revenue target by K890 million and was optimist that it would exceed the amount this month. Mr Chanda said in September, the authority went above target by over 400 million and by almost 500 million in October 2020 which was remarkable.

"Since 2017 ZRA has continually archived its target and even exceeded and we sustain our gains made so far and would have achieved more in the future with support from the Government, the union and its members," he said. He made the revelations in Kabwe yesterday during the sixth quadrennial Zambia Revenue Authority Workers

Lungu appeals for Saudi investment By SILUMESI MALUMO

The President said this when he met Saudi Arabic Minister of State for African Affairs Ahmed Kattan at State House yesterday.

WE have managed to contain the locusts which threatened food security in Western, Southern and Central provinces, Minister of Agriculture Michael Katambo has said. The minister said that the continued spraying in affected areas helped to completely eradicate the dangerous insects. Mr Katambo said the Ministry of Finance released to K10 million to be used to buy necessities to help to contain the insects.

The President informed Mr Kattan that Zambia had the vision 2030 and was implementing strategies such as the development of the multi facility economic zones, industrial parks, farm blocs and value chain clusters as means of industralisation and transforming the economy into a prosperous middle income nation by 2030. The Head of State also acknowledged the cooperation between the two countries

in areas of mutual interest at both bilateral and multilateral level and expressed Zambia’s desire to continue consolidating and deepening cooperation with Saudi Arabia. “Zambia enjoys the warm bilateral relations and economic cooperation with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” Mr Lungu said. President Lungu stated that the relationship between Zambia and Saudi had grown strength and created oppor-

He said acknowledged that the authority was affected negatively in terms of its revenue performance when the country was partially closed in March due to the pandemic.

tunities for steady economic partnership. “The relations have been further strengthened by exchange visits and enhanced support from Saudi Arabia in key sectors such as security, health among others,” President Lungu said. Speaking earlier Mr Kattan extended the invitation for President Lungu to attend the Saudi Arabia summit which would be held next year. He also called for enhanced relations between Zambia and Saudi Arabia and speeding up the actualization of agreements that were signed.

Mr Hichilema

By PETER SICHALI

UNITED Party for National Development (UPND) president Hakainde Hichilema has been summoned by police for questioning. UPND Spokesperson Charles Kakoma told the Daily Nation in an interview, Mr Hichilema is scheduled to appear at Lusaka central police on Monday next week. Mr Kakoma said police officers from force Headquarters attempted to serve the summons at the UPND Secretariat yesterday

morning but failed as some vigilant people they found at the Secretariat referred them to the party lawyers. He said Police want Mr Hichilema for questioning at Force Headquarters on Monday, December 21, 2020 at 10:00 hours. Mr Kakoma said police have not stated the reasons why they want to question Mr Hichilema. “We appeal to our supporters across the country to be alert and offer President Hichilema solidarity,” Mr Kakoma said.

We’ve contained Locusts - minister He said the three provinces which were attacked by the red locusts, brown locusts and the desert locusts, had all been contained. Mr Katambo said in an exclusive interview yesterday, about 22,873 hectares of land was affected but Government managed to procure 1,200 liters of chemicals to cater for the all area in order for the dangerous species can be

contained. “The first report of the outbreak of locusts was in March 2020, and this was in Kazungula district in Southern Province. Then the outbreak spread to some parts of Western and Central Provinces and about 14 districts were affected. But we worked with the Disaster Management and Mitigation Unit (DMMU), the Africa Red Locust Internation-

al Control and sprayed the affected areas. The Ministry of Finance helped by releasing some funds in order to procure the chemicals. As I speak now the locusts have been contained in the affected areas and this is very gratifying,” he said. Mr Katambo said Government also engaged Namibia and Botswana which were the sources of the locusts to

Mr Katambo ensure that they sprayed all affected areas to completely eradicate the insects. Mr Katambo said through this in-

tervention the situation was contained and now the food security in the areas was out of danger.

Pragmatic approach a must WITHOUT delay, Zambia’s economic turbulence requires pragmatic approach to avoid falling into a deep national crisis. Currently, all macro-economic fundamentals have drifted into a negative status, signaling low production in critical sectors of the economy. Inflation rose to 17.4 per cent in November from 16 per cent in October this year while the exchange rate is hovering around K21.30 to a United States dollar. This year the economy is projected to contract, after a similar economic nose-dive in 1998, and certainly, this calls for practical interventions. It is for this reason that Government has crafted the Economic Recovery Programme (ERP), which builds on the Economic Stabilisation and Growth Programme (ESGP). As articulated in the document launched a few days ago, Government has laid out choices to be implemented over the next four years, providing a road map of strategic policy actions required to revive the economy. This is no small assignment though! The Government will need to engage the private sector and thrash out all encumbrances, particularly in the mining sectors, which is mainly driven by foreign entities. On one hand, Government and some other interest groups believe that mining firms need to give more in terms of taxes, considering that they are exploiting rich natural resources. Rightly so, copper is now fetching US$7,988 a tonne on the international market, an attractive price for mining firms to make reasonable profits. But on the other hand, the Zambia Chamber of Mines, an umbrella organisation of mining firms in the country, has been complaining about an unstable tax regime, which they insist results in double taxation. The chamber has proposed that Zambia should treat mineral royalty payments as a deductible expense in order to avoid double taxation and attract more investment. According to the chamber, the mining companies end up being taxed on income that has already been paid over as a royalty – a situation referred to as double taxation. Matters of this nature need to be resolved as the Government implements the recovery programme or else it will just be an academic exercise. Yes, the programme is anchored on restoring macroeconomic stability, attaining fiscal and debt sustainability and dismantling the backlog of domestic arrears. The Government is also aiming at restoring growth, diversifying the economy and safeguarding social protection programmes. But all the five strategic areas can only be explored effectively if all sticky issue are ironed out not only in the mining sector, but also in other critical industries such as tourism, which as too many payments for tourists compared to other countries such as Zimbabwe. Foreign tourists would rather tour the Victoria Falls from the Zimbabwean side while lodging in South Africa. This imbalance has been talked about years on end! Quite alright, Government invited input from Zambia Association of Manufacturers, Zambia Revenue Authority, Indaba Agricultural Policy Research Institute, Zambia Association of Manufacturers and the Zambia Chamber of Commerce and Industry. But the state must equally involve the same strategic partners in the implementation, monitoring and review of the economic recovery programme. The Zambia Chamber of Mines must be involved too! Many a time, the Government and captains of industry have differed over taxation and other policy matters because the private sector is not carried along in implementation and monitoring phases. Carrying them in all the phases will be helpful!

EXPLAIN YOUR BUSINESS IN DRC, TUTWA CHALLENGES NEVERS From Page 1 “We want to tell him that crime does not pay. He has to tell the people of Zambia how he found himself there, who he went to meet and in what capacity. “He must tell us. Right now we want him to tell us what charge and who he went to see,” Mr Ngulube demanded. Mr Ngulube urged Zambian politicians to stop causing

confusion in neighbouring countries as doing so would land them in a serious crime such as death sentence. In an earlier video recorded from his hotel, Dr Mumba had said he had gone to the DRC to explore business possibilities in order to supply commodities. “We came for business and we achieved what we came for,” he said in the video. He did not elaborate on the

commodities he was thinking of supplying. Other MMD leaders have condemned Dr Mumba’s journey to DRC, labelling the move as reckless. Last weekend, MMD faction leader Raphael Nakachinda distanced the party from the conduct and mission of Dr Mumba in the DRC where he was arrested. Mr Nakachinda said the MMD has always used noble

Economic recovery plan on energy cheers expert By SILUMESI MALUMO

IT is gratifying that President Edgar Lungu through the economic recovery programme has assured that Government will re-engage Independent Power Producers to negotiate on the tariffs because Zesco will make huge loses, energy expert Johnstone Chikwanda has said. Cost of taking power from IPPs, Mr Chikwanda said, is very high compared to the price at which Zesco is selling the same to different consumers. He said it was important that the tariffs were reduced to reduce burden on Zesco

which was incurring huge debts. “Zesco has been paying a lot of money to the IPPS for them to buy electricity which they sell at lower prices. It is important that Zesco stops making loses once the negotiations are done,” he said. He said in an interview yesterday, the plan had assured that the energy sector reform would continue and shall include urgently the revision of pricing mechanism in the petroleum subsector. Mr Chikwanda said this had been the wish of players in the subsector, therefore, with the assurance from Government it would motivate and subsequently contribute signifi-

cantly to the sector. He said in an interview yesterday, energy was the life blood of the economy therefore prudent that all challenges faced were addressed for it to play its critical role to the country’s economic growth. “This is an answered prayer for the players in the petroleum subsector,” Mr Chikwanda said. It is also pleasing that Government has assured that the cost service study would be completed in March next year. It also touched on the completion of Zesco reforms by the end of 2021, the completion and commissioning of Kafue Lower Gorge project by the end of 2021.

Rufunsa gold miners, ZCCM-IH deal By JOHN KOMBE

RUFUNSA gold mining cooperatives and ZCCM-IH have signed an agreement after a long disagreement on operational terms. In an interview, Chimwetu Gold Mining Cooperative chairman, Emmanuel Tembo disclosed that the four cooperatives finally agreed to the terms after a series of discussions with ZCCM-IH. The four cooperatives are Pokela, Chimwetu, Kamandu and Chipeketi. He expressed happiness at the development and hoped that this would help both parties to engage in business and

regretted the longstanding disagreement, but noted that it was necessary to ensure that all parties were satisfied with the terms. He disclosed that the signing ceremony took place yesterday at Jesper Lodge in Rufunsa and that ZCCM-IH was represented at the signing ceremony. Mr Tembo observed that the cooperatives were initially hesitant to sign the agreement because of a few concerns such as the ownership of the equipment but noted that these matters have been resolved and the parties agreed to the terms after concession. He also noted that the

agreement would now compel the cooperatives to trade with ZCCM-IH who offered a better price for the gold than private buyer and said that this will ensure that government got the desired tax. Mr. Tembo however revealed that one cooperative, Kamandu gold mining cooperative chairperson was not available to sign the agreement as his area of residence was cut off due to heavy rains. He however, said that the cooperatives had all agreed to the terms and the chairperson for Kamandu was ready to sign and would to travel to the ZCCM-IH offices to sign the documents.

HH will not accept defeat - YALI By PETER SICHALI

UPND president Hakainde Hichilema is showing dangerous traits and may not accept the outcome of the 2021 general elections, Young African Leaders Initiative (YALI) president Andrew Ntewewe has said. And Mr Ntewewe said it would be a mistake for Zambians to vote for Mr Hichilema because he has dictatorial tendencies and might not want to leave office. Mr Ntewewe said it was unfortunate despite not accepting the outcome of the 2016 general elections, Mr Hichilema has continued with his smear campaign against governance institutions including the Electoral Commission of Zambia. “HH has lost elections five times but he has never conceded defeat up to now he has never recognized President Edgar Lungu as winner of 2016 elections and up to now he has never recognized the President and these are dangerous traits and makes one wonder what he is planning to do next time he loses an election,” Mr Ntewewe said. Mr Ntewewe said it is disappointing that the international community which is paying much attention to Zambia’s elections has not seen anything wrong with an individual who had not accepted the defeat of 2016 and is going into the next election. He said it was important for the church to counsel Mr Hichilema before he plunges the country into chaos. Meanwhile, Lusaka Province Minister Bowman Lusambo has charged that Mr Hichilema and UPND were under pressure to win 2021 general elections because it had borrowed heavily. Mr Lusambo said Mr Hichilema was not suitable to be republican president.

WOMEN for Change has asked women across the country to take advantage of the four day extension to acquire voters cards and take part in the coming general elections. Executive Director Lumba Siyanga said in an exclusive interview yesterday that though the period extended was not enough, it was the only chance women who failed to acquire the voters cards to register, had . Ms Siyanga said women especially in rural areas should register as voters because this was the only way they can ensure that their rights were attained. She said women also have a chance of standing as candidates in the forthcoming general elections. She said getting voters cards was not only about them voting but also making them qualify to contest as councilors and

Members of Parliament and make change in the communities where they live. "The first thing women should do before considering to become a candidate is to become voters themselves. It is only then that these women can qualify to do whatever they want to do. Similarly, the women can contribute towards meaningful change which they long to have in terms of making the demands on issues they don't agree with. "By voting women will have the power to make politicians accountable to the promises that are made," she said. As voters, Ms Siyanga said, the women will be able to compel the politicians to fulfill their promises. She said voting was an important exercise which should be undertaken by all well-meaning citizens.

ATRIOTIC Front Party members have cried out to the Minister of Lands and Natural Resources over the discrimination by the United Party for National Development led Councils in plot allocations in Choma. PF Choma District Chairman Kenneth Moola lamented to Lands minister, Jean Kapata in Choma when she met party members in Choma District of Southern Province. Mr Moola said his members are segregated against

“SOME opposition leaders are desperate and want to form government at all costs in the 2021 elections because they want to form government and pursue the interests of foreign businesses where they have shares," Patriotic Front aspiring candidate for Lufwanyama constituency Don Mungulube has said. Mr Mungulube said the opposition leaders have no desire to improve people's lives, but merely wanted to use them to ascend to power and dump them so that they can concentrate on serving their own personal interest In an interview in Kitwe yesterday, Mr Mungulube said he was hoping that the people in the opposition stronghold would soon re-

alise that some opposition leaders did not mean well for them and decide to join the ruling Patriotic Front. "I have decided to aspire for Lufwanyama constituency so that If they vote for me I prove that the Patriotic Front is action oriented. Yes, action oriented than the opposition parties whose leaders have nothing to offer. "In fact some of these opposition leaders are so desperate and want to form government at all costs so that they use it to pursue the interests of private businesses where they have shares. So we have to be careful as Zambians." Mr mungulube said. Mr Mungulube urged the PF members and its leaders to get down and explain the economic challenges facing the country and what the government was doing to address them.

he sat on the Council planning Committee and witnessed how discriminatory the processes have been. “Honourable Minister, I once sat in the planning Committee, my people had applied for land and they came with all their qualifications, but now just because of them belonging to PF no one was given an opportunity to own land. They’ve tried so many times to apply for land and no one has been considered,” he said In responding to the cries by the Councilor, Ms Kapata promised all the aggrieved parties that her

Ministry working in tandem with the District Commissioner’s office and Local Authority will look into the matter to ensure no one is discriminated against because of their political affiliation as every Zambian is entitled to own land irrespective of ones standing in society. The Minister was in Southern Province to roll out the National Land Titling sensitisation programme funded by Medici Land Governance t with a target of 5 million land owners to acquiring Certificates of Title to their properties.

ZNFU welcomes engagement of cotton growers By KETRA KALUNGA

ENGAGEMENT of cotton growers by the government in the re-opening process of the Zambia-China Mulungushi Textiles is a positive economic development, says the Zambia National Farmers Union (ZNFU) And ZNFU says the move would not only empower farmers that grow cotton in the country but also created employment for the people of Kabwe and the surrounding districts.

when it comes to issuance of plots in the district all because they belong to the Patriotic Front. He wondered why some citizens in the same district should be accorded preferential treatment for simply being UPND. “Honourable Minister, the Council has many times advertised land to be accessed by all Zambians, but our people as Patriotic Front, these people you are seeing here, no one has accessed land,” he said Mr Moola who is also Councillor for Namuswa Ward and the only one from PF in Choma reiterated that

He said the opposition were busy trying to take advantage of the economic challenges facing the country for political mileage. He said the opposition has no ability to improve people's lives, but were merely desperate to form government for their evil and selfish motives. "These opposition politicians have waged a battle against President Edgar Lungu not because they want to remove him so that they form government and serve the interests of the people, but because they are doing it out of hatred for President Lungu. "They are driven by hatred and bitterness. If they were genuine people with the interests of people at heart, they would have been discussing issues of promoting unity and economic recovery." he said.

lations manager, Kelvin Kaleyi said in an interview that cotton out grower scheme would lead to increase in the price of the commodity because of ready market. "It is an interesting development, it means that farmers that had the challenge of ready market would be helped and we may see the price of cotton appreciate," he said. Mr Kaleyi further said the re-opening of the textiles would therefore not only empower the farmers but also create job opportunities for a

number of people within and outside Kabwe district. He has urged the government to ensure that the re-opening of Zambia-China Mulungushi textiles is actualized. The government has engaged farmers in the country to grow cotton for supply to the factory as raw material and would supply free seed and technical support. Zambia-China Mulungushi textiles is likely to be operational in April 2021 after farmers harvest cotton or supply to the factory.

Mukobeko Maximum female inmates get 1, 000 chicks empowerment By KETRA KALUNGA

FEMALE inmates at Mukobeko Maximum Correctional Facility have been empowered with 1, 000 chicks and inputs by the government to boost their poultry business and sustain themselves while in incarceration. Minister of Gender, Elizabeth Phiri said when she handed over the donation that the government under the leadership of President Edgar Lungu was walking its talk of not leaving anyone behind including the inmates. Ms. Phiri said the donation of poultry inputs by the ministry of Gender would help break the poverty of female inmates when they are re-integrated with their families. The Kanyama lawmaker

said the donations would also help the inmates obtain life skills and work experience while in incarceration. Ms. Phiri called on other stakeholders to support inmates with various fundraising ventures to help the inmates re- integrate successfully into society. "Preparing inmates for re-integration with their families is key in the rehabilitation process and it helps reduce re-offending and create confidence in ex-inmates of being accepted back into society," she said. And Central province minister, Sydney Mushanga commended the government for empowering the female inmates. And Mr. Mushanga assured the inmates of government's continued support to easy the everyday challenges that comes with

being incarcerated. "Never should you think that because you are in prison, the government won't care for you and that your human rights cease to exist, that is not true, as government will continue caring for you," he said. Speaking earlier, Central province deputy commissioner, Daxies Makeyi commended the government for the gesture which he said would address the asocial, economical and health needs of the inmates. He said the donation would further maximize the potential of the female inmates in entrepreneurship skills. In a vote thanks, inmate, Shabu Benos said the donation was a clear demonstration of the government's love , dedication and determination in promoting restorative justice.

Opening the trade day at K20.07/21.12 per dollar, the local unit traded firmly throughout the day as the rates remained unchanged until close of business.

INFORMAL cross-border trade (ICBT) contribution to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is hardly recognised despite being a major source of income, African Exportâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;Import Bank (Afreximbank) president, Benedict Oramah. Afreximbank in its annual African Trade Report (ATR) which examined trade and economic developments in Africa in 2019, indicated that the period was dominated by trade wars and escalat-

The rand was 0.94 percent firmer at 14.6775 per dollar, its firmest level since January 30, bringing gains for the week to nearly three percent in a worldwide high risk rally.

On the money market, the liquidity levels in the market were little changed in Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trading session reducing to K2.82 billion from K2.88 billion. The volumes of funds traded on the interbank on the other hand significantly increased to K705.00 million from K450.00 million seen the previous day.

This has been compounded by Covid-19, and as a result, following a fall of 2.8 percent last year, global trade is expected to shrink by 9.2 percent in 2020. Commenting on the report, Professor Oramah, said: "Even though ICBP accounts for significant proportion of domestic ab-

The ATR conducted an extensive study of ICBT, the first attempt at measuring in a detailed manner the size and composition of informal trade. The report highlighted the importance of ICBT for gen-

The report estimates that it serves as a source of income for about 43 percent of Africaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population and is dominated by women. "In Southern Africa (the SADC block), female traders account for about 70 percent of ICBT. In West Africa, food and agriculture products accounted for 30 percent of in-

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;ACFTA will promote value additionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; By BUUMBA CHIMBULU

THE African Continental Free Trade Area (ACFTA) agreement has huge potential to promote value addition in Zambia. It is posed to resolve the challenge of overlapping, increase market access, stimulate foreign investment and competitiveness. ACFTA could encourage diversification. This is according to the Zambia Association of Manufactures (ZAM) Policy Analyst, Zondwayo Dume. Mr Dume said the initiative had the potential to promote orderly and free flow of economic factors, highly efficient ventures and integrating of markets. He said this in a writeup on the ACFTA: Challenges and Opportunities for the Manufacturing Sector. African leaders approved that trading should start on January 1, next year as scheduled on the AfCFTA agreement and requested African financial institutions to provide technical and financial support for its implementation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The ratification of the CFTA in Zambia is also faced with a number of challenges such as inadequate technical expertise,

tra-regional trade," said the report. According to the report, Africaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s merchandise trade in the period January to August contracted by 12 percent compared to same period last year, with April and May emerging as the period witnessing the largest contractions. Â It indicated that the outlook for 2021 was positive and Africaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trade was ex-

high transport costs, inconsistent and incoherent trade policies and high cost of borrowing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In conclusion, it would be recommended that the ratification be halted until sufficient capacity is built to make local suppliers competitive,â&#x20AC;? Mr Dume said. He however regretted that non-tradition exports in Zambia remained low, and that this could make it difficult for the country to reap the benefits from signing. Mr Dume stressed that it was important to understand the challenges, hindering local exports in as much as the ACFTA seeks to resolve this challenge. Zambia, he said, currently had limited technical know-how on technical regulations and procedures. He said this hindered access to foreign markets, making it hard for the locals to overcome challenges such as non-tariff barriers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Secondly, the transport costs in Zambia are very high making the cost of doing business very high, as the importation of raw materials and exports makes it very expensive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hence, this makes domestic products very uncompetitive against imports both in the domestic economy and in foreign markets,â&#x20AC;? Mr Dume said.

pected to rebound strongly in 2021 as global economic activity picked up and demand for African exports increases. "The share of Africaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exports to Asia increased to 30.79 percent in 2019 while the EUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s share decreased to 24.6. "China and India have been the main drivers of the rising trade relationships between Africa and Asia, with China and India accounting for 27 percent of Africaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s total merchandise exports in 2019," the report said.

And Mr Kanganja has launched and rolled out the Government Service Bus, an electronic payments of public service vehicles being handled by the Zambia Police Service.

During this period, we will deploy a good number of officers to ensure that we rid our country of all forms of anarchy,” the IG said. And Mr Kanganja has charged that the rolling out of the Government Service Bus and Gateway payment system has enhanced efficiency and productivity in the Zambia Police Service and the whole country at large.

AMBIA National Union of Teachers (ZNUT) has welcomed the debt relief announced by government as most civil servants in the area stressed with economic challenges. The union says that as a result of that, civil servants are left with no option but end up borrowing from financial lending institutions including individual lenders. In an interview with the in

Mr Bubala said with the pronouncement of debt swap by government, it will help in relieving the pressure which most of them are faced with. He said that the debt swap will help them come out of the debt in which they are encumbered. Mr Bubala has further appealed to District Education

Board Secretaries throughout the country to quickly provide data of how many teachers are owed by government in settling allowances and leave days.

He said that that must be done as soon as possible so that people can be paid their dues. Mr Bubala has also urged teachers to avoid falling prey to politics.

Speaking at the opening of the full council meeting, Solwezi Mayor, Nicholas Mukumbi observed that most people have stopped following the health guidelines on COVID- 19. Mr Mukumbi called on members of the public to remain vigilant by not relenting in adhering to public health guidelines. "You will recall that early this year, tough and drastic

"I would like to commend you in the manner you have managed to participate managing Covid-19 in the region. We did not know how to manage it. "As Government, we are proud of your performance and you managed to account all internal controls and meeting your targets," he said. He urged the officers to decisions had to be made by the central government in the wake of the COVID-19 with the sole purpose of preserving lives of the Zambian people such as the closure of churches, schools, bars among others," he said. He further urged health inspectors and front line workers in the fights against COVID-19 to continue with their work to ensure public health preventive measures are strengthened and minimize the impact of the pandemic. He said fighting COVID-19 calls for concerted efforts from various stakeholders. "As a local authority, we embrace partnership in order to prevent and mitigate its impact", he said. He further said that despite having had a rough year, all members of staff have always been paid their monthly salaries. "Despite 2020 being a rough year where we experienced a reduction in revenue by 14.67 percent in the first half of the year, I am glad that not even one month has passed without Solwezi municipal council members of staff getting paid their monthly salaries", Mr Mukumbi said. - ZANIS

Dr Hamukale said that Government does not send individuals to ask for money and will never do that. "This behaviour is common in Southern Province especially in border areas. These individuals are collecting money in the name of the party," he said. "Again during this festival season, there are some multinational companies that

have the tendency of dumping products that are near expiring dates in developing countries like ours. "There are also individuals who want to take advantage of this period to come in Zambia and stay illegally but we need to protect Zambians by ensuring that they don't stay in the country illegally," he said. And ZRA Assistant Commissioner Southwest Region, Edgar Kwalela, said that despite the Covid-19, the authority has continued collecting revenue and was optimistic of meeting its target.

NHIMA forks our K436,000 for Solwezi hospital facelift SOLWEZI General Hospital has received an advance payment of about K436,000 from the National Health Insurance Management Authority (NHIMA) to improve quality of care for the members.

Extension of reopening of schools welcome Dear editor, GOVERNMENT through the Ministry of General Education last Tuesday announced the extension of reopening date of schools from January 4, 2021 to January 18, 2021. The extension was announced by the Ministry of General Education Permanent Secretary, Dr. Jobbicks Kalumba. The decision of changing the reopening date of schools is a welcome move in that it will give parents time to raise money for school fees for their children. This year’s school calendar was affected by the outbreak of coronavirus which led to the premature closure of schools in March this year. We are in the festive season where people will be celebrating Christmas and New Year. Some people tend to be too extravagant to spend money on luxury things during the festive season.

They forget that schools will be reopening after the festivities. When schools reopen, there is an issue of paying school fees for the children. The Covid-19 pandemic has impacted negatively on people’s financial status. The Covid-19 led to a slump in business activities as entrepreneurs could not make enough money. On the other hand, some people lost employment and others were sent on forced and unpaid leave as a dire consequence. My humble appeal to pupils on holiday is that they should spend the holiday responsibly by desisting from vices such as alcohol abuse, drug abuse, illicit sex and crime, among others. These pupils should instead study during the holiday to catch up on some topics before the commencement of the first term. However, the pupils writing examinations should exhibit exemplary behaviour by not resorting to any form of violence. Just recently Ryan Phiri, a Grade 12 pupil of Kabulonga Boys Secondary School was beaten to death by some pupils from Twin Palm Secondary School. In conclusion, I would like to laud the Ministry of General Education for extending the reopening date of schools. ELEMIYA PHIRI, Lusaka.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Dear Editor,

E won’t sit any longer with our legs crossed, hands folded seeing lumpens insulting, demeaning and disrespecting President Edgar Lungu. Pilato should know that if he continues singing and behaving in a manner that is highly disrespectful towards President Lungu then he should not be surprised if we force ourselves to be his dancing kings. Pilato should know that one cannot run fast at the same time scratching his back, his actions today will surely meet up with desired consequences. I want to appeal to the Patriotic Front national youth chairman Kelvin Sampa and all the 10 provincial youth chairpersons to sternly warn Pilato against his actions and behaviour towards President Edgar Lungu which is disrespectful before we jump the gun and face him head on. Idi Amin once said and I quote “I can guarantee you Freedom of Speech or Expression but what I won’t

guarantee is the freedom after that Freedom of Speech or Expression depending on how you use it.” President Lungu has been the most insulted, abused, demeaned, disrespected and undermined President in the history of this nation by some

misguided political elements who are clearly abusing freedom of speech or expression. The fact that President Lungu has been relentlessly telling us to be peaceful and loving people does not mean we cannot rise up and defend him when attacked.

Law enforcement agencies must take interest in Nevers Mumba’s DRC trip Dear Editor. WHENEVER citizens of Zambia travel abroad, they carry the image of Zambia on their shoulders thus any scandal that their name is associated with is piled on the nation. The responsibility is even greater to former Government officials and opposition leaders who have a sizeable following in Zambia.

Pilato should know that we can easily fish him out wherever he thinks he is hiding and lecture him on the need to respect elders. It’s actually against the norms and principles of our traditional values and set up to disrespect elders.

This means any misconduct will consequently drag the name of the nation into ridicule. We have reflected on the misfortune that our former Republican Vice President and Ambassador Dr. Nevers Sekwila Mumba found himself in during his incognito visit to the Democratic Republic of Congo. Dr. Mumba has not explained whether he engaged the Ministry of Foreign Affairs back home prior to his travel. This is important for the higher ranking former Government officials of his stature. We do not take pleasure in seeing our fellow nationals being persecuted by a foreign nation especially a person who once rendered service to our nation. Dr. Mumba claimed he was on a “business trip” yet other media reports suggests otherwise. However, we have misgivings on this

reckless choice of destination. We find it extremely intolerant for a well enlightened individual like Dr. Mumba to risk the security of the nation by visiting a war tone country especially that he was implicated in threatening the existence of the Government of the sovereign state and leading to his detention. What of the allegations reported in some sections of the media regarding his “solicitation of campaign funds from one of the rival camps with the Government of the day?” We need his substantive reply to this important question. Moreover, we have always advocated for the enactment of the Political Party Bill into law as it seeks to compel disclosure of any apparent inappropriate affiliation with the foreign Governments. The Political Party Bill will guard the integrity of the electoral process and ensure that no political leader

undermine the sovereignty of another country, the very basic tenet upon which nations are built. We are glad the Zambian Government intervened to secure for his retrieval from the nation that was nearly asking for his head on a Plata. The Diplomatic channels are quiet complex, they are a delicate issue and such questionable visits has a spill over effect to the sound diplomatic relations between the two nations which have been cherished from times of antiquities. The issue can be resolved back home and the former Diplomat can clarify most of the conflictual statements regarding his mission in Congo DR. The Zambian law enforcement agencies must take interest in Dr Mumba’s unannounced trip to country that is infested with protracted internal armed conflict. MARVIN CHANDA MBERI,

Mr Jumbe said it was important that Zambians prayed for peace to continue in the country for the sake of development. “It is important that we pray to God to help us maintain peace because peace is vital. We may have economic challenges, but that should not lead us to talk ill of each other and issue statements that will suggest bad things to happen,” he said.

Mr Gouda has since called on Government to compel gas producing companies to have a uniform cylinder as it would encourage the use of the commodity among consumers. He noted that the issue of companies only allowing consumers to buy gas using company branded cylinders was discouraging the consumption of LPG for cooking. Mr Gouda said companies should exchange gas cylinders as it would create convenience among customers and promote usage. He said Government should ensure the price of gas

is cheaper than that of charcoal especially in rural areas where firewood has depleted to help encourage the use of LPG. And Ministry of Energy acting Senior Energy officer Chola Chipampa explained that Zambia has potential to generate one thousand megawatts of energy from biomas resources such as crop, agriculture and forest residuals. He said the challenge has been lack of finances to package bankable project feasibility studies. Mr. Chola further explained that Zambia has a power deficit of 810 megawatts due to climate change factors. -ZANIS

Mr Jumbe said politicians should desist from making statements, suggesting that the 2021 general elections were a matter of life and death. “We understand that people are eager to vote in next year’s election but we are disappointed that some politicians have been issuing reckless statements as no elections could be a matter of life and death,” he said.

Energy expert call for utilisation of Liquid Petroleum Gas AN energy expert has observed the need for Government and stakeholders to increase sensitisation on the use of Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) for various domestic uses to help save electricity. Energy expert under the Increased Access to Electricity and Renewable Energy Production (IAEREP) projects Sam Gouda noted the low consumption of LPG among consumers. Mr Gouda observed that

despite the advancement in technology LPG is still perceived to be hazardous by many. “LPG is a very important energy source, it is important for cooking. The use of LPG especially for cooking will help the country save electricity. Government and stakeholders should increase sensitization for its use in both urban and rural areas," he said.

THE electorate must not only consider the message of aspiring candidates but also examine the character and the relationship of the particular candidate with the community, Patriotic Front (PF) Kamfinsa constituency aspiring candidate Kelvin Chipili has said. He said the electorate must consider all the aspects about aspiring candidates for the 2021 general elections so that they could make a right decision whether that person was capable of serving them to their expectation Mr Chipili said various

aspiring candidates will come with attractive messages to the electorate, but it was up to the people to scrutinise whether such messages were in line with the character of the person delivering them. He was speaking after he handed over K5,000 to Catholic Holy Family Choir of St Peter the Apostle, Ndeke parish in Kitwe for the purchase of the 55 members’ uniforms. He said his support to the community and the Church had not started because of next year's election, but that he had been working with the community in various small project for some time now.

"Each of the aspiring candidates has a message to deliver to you, but your task is to scrutinise the messages and make a conclusion whether the message is in line with his character. It's up to you to tell whether he is just telling you stories or not."This is why I am saying don't only listen to the message of the aspiring candidates, but analyse and scrutinise what he or she is saying. What has been his or her relationship with the community? Is he ready to make personal sacrifices for the people? Does he have respect for ordinary people?" Mr Chipili said. Earlier, Holy Family Choir chairperson, Isaac Lungu,

said the group was formed in October 2017 and has 55 members, comprising elderly women and men. Mr Lungu said the choir has an executive committee leadership of six people and four disciplinary committee members and four choir conductors He said due to good performance, high dedication and discipline the choir has become very "Despite the difficulties the country has been going through, we have noticed that you have been very helpful in the community at various fora and funerals, donating money, food and providing transport," Mr Lungu said.

THE Lamba-Lima Royal Establishment has called for calm among people in Fungulwe Chiefdom after the demise of their traditional leader. Senior Chief Chiwala said the establishment has received the death of the late Chief Fungulwe with sorrow and sadness as he was a pillar and mentor to many chiefdoms. ZANIS reports that senior Chief Chiwala said he expects nothing but peace upon the people in the chiefdom as doing so would mean mourning their fallen hero with dignity. “We have lost a chief who has been there for quiet sometime to some of us. Therefore, what do we expect from our people in Fungulwe chiefdom, only calm and peace and later see a peaceful transition and

Musenge lost for words By SANFROSSA MANYINDA I CANNOT find the right words to describe my gratitude to Green Party president Peter Sinkamba for offering to pay back the salaries and allowances I gained when Parliament dissolved in 2016, former Copperbelt Province Minister Mwenya Musenge has said. Mr Sinkamba made payment of K30,000 for Mr Musenge and K25,000 for Home Affairs Minister Stephen Kampyongo. Mr Musenge owed the state K56, 058.30 while Mr Kampyongo’s debt stood at K 60, 434.68 before the Green Party President came in. Mr Sinkamba has confirmed with proof of deposit slips in the sum of K30,000 towards Mr Musenge’s debt and K25,000 towards Mr Kampyongo’s debt with a promise to clear both balances before January 5, 2021.

succession ceremony,” Senior Chief Chiwala said. He said Chief Fungulwe had been unwell for some time until his health failed him in the early hours of SundayDecember 13, 2020, at Kitwe Teaching Hospital. Senior Chief Chiwala has described the late traditional leader as a mentor whose advice was relied upon by many chiefs in the province and beyond. James Brown Kaswende ascended to the Fungulwe Chiefdom in 1974, and subsequently recognized by former and first President of the Republican, Kenneth Kaunda through statutory instrument number 192 of 1976. He was born in 1938, and at the time of his death, Chief Fungulwe had reigned over the Lamba-Lima people within his chiefdom for 46 years, making him the longest serving chief in the Copperbelt Province. The late Chief will be put to rest in Fungulwe Chiefdom of Lufwanyama District on Saturday December 19, 2020. - ZANIS.

Serving and former ministers have been ordered by the Constitutional Court to pay back salaries and allowances they gained when they stayed in office illegally after parliament was dissolved in 2016. Mr Sinkamba said yesterday when he featured on Millennium Radio that he and the duo were very good friends and that he was only being a brother’s keeper. Mr Musenge described Mr Sinkamba as a reliable friend who has been there for him through both the good and bad times. He told the Daily Nation in Kitwe yesterday that the gesture came as a surprise to him as Mr Sinkamba never mentioned anything to him. "I am hearing it from you now. I do not know anything because he has not mentioned anything to me. I am speechless and at the same time emotional. He has clearly shown that ukwangala kwachila ulupwa a Bemba adage which means ‘friendship is stronger than blood relationship’," he said.

Luanshya Council pursues ‘runaway’ supplier By SANFROSSA MANYINDA A COPPERBELT-BASED supplier has failed to deliver a garbage truck to the Luanshya Municipal Council two years after receiving 75 percent up-front payment. As a result, Luanshya Municipal Council has called on Government to take action against the supplier for failing to deliver a garbage truck to the local authority. According to Luanshya Mayor, Nathan Chanda, the supplier failed to deliver the truck despite being paid 75 percent of the contract sum of over K 1.6 million. The truck was procured by the Provincial Administration in Ndola on behalf of the council. Mr Chanda has, appealed to Copperbelt Permanent Secretary, Bright Nundwe, to assist the local authority get the equipment. Meanwhile, sources have revealed that at the last sitting of the council, a resolution was passed to report the matter to the AntiCorruption Commission. "Two years now and the garbage truck has not yet been delivered despite the supplier getting an up front of over 75 per cent of the total contract sum K1, 600, 000.00.

Daily Nation, Educating Zambia!

Saturday December 19, 2020

CIVIC EDUCATION On today’s pupil’s forum in Civic Education, will look at a topic:Zambia’s Legal System. This topic will focus on Law, Elements of good legal system and sources of Zambian law. This topic is at grade eleven (11) level of the Zambian curriculum. At the end of this discussion, learners will be required to answer questions. Zambia’s Legal System The Law • The Law is a set of rules, which a society develops for itself to control the behaviour of its members to one another. • It also includes the meting out of punishment to members of society that do not abide by the rules and the awarding of compensation to people who have been wronged. • Without law, society as we know it would be impossible because freedom without boundaries results in anarchy, which means total confusion. From the time that human beings are born, their lives, safety, health and peace are controlled by law. Elements of a good legal system A good legal system is one that serves members of its society fairly without violating their rights. There are six core elements that should be present in a good legal system. A good legal system has to be: • Simple (Uncomplicated) A law has to be written in a language that can be easily understood by a large section of society. The form of language and the level of difficulty should suit the needs of the majority of citizens. • Comprehensive (Inclusive) It should not leave gaps but attempt to cover all possible areas of dispute, concern or debate. It should anticipate future problems and include them in the laws. It should not be constantly formulating new laws as wrongful acts take place. • Certain (Definite) Citizens ought to know clearly what is prohibited by law. A law should not be so ambiguous or vague that it is only fully understood and interpreted by a small number of people in society. It should therefore be documented so that it is possible to refer to it and that it should be clear to everyone who consults it.

b) Acts of Parliament • Acts of Parliament are laws made through bills passed by the National Assembly and assented by the President. • The process begins with the presentation of a bill in the National Assembly and passes through three Reading Stages before being sent to the President to either veto or withhold his or assent. • If he/she assents, the bill is gazetted and becomes law. • If the President does not sign, the bill is sent back to the National Assembly. • The National Assembly can either debate further or make changes or it can send back to the President in its original form. • When this happens, the President has 21 days in which to either assent or dissolve Parliament to pave way for fresh elections.

cases brought before all the courts in the court system annually. Customary law is also applied in traditional courts, which are presided over by traditional rulers. • Customary law uses advisors who are called assessors to give advice on particular matters. • These assessors are not extra Justices but play the role of a consultant. For example, if a court is about to hear a case involving a Lamba customary law, it could invite a Lamba person of suitable character and social status to sit as an assessor for that particular case only. • The advice of assessors is given in open court so that everyone can hear it and that the persons concerned shall be able to respond or bring evidence on matters after such advice is given. Exercise

c) Delegated or Subsidiary Legislation • Delegated or subsidiary legislation are laws delegated to the Executive wing of the government to make as provided for in an act of parliament.

1.Define Law

• The law recognized that it would not be possible for parliament to make all laws.

3.Name three (3) sources of Zambian Law

• Parliament has allowed government ministers to make laws. For example, the Education Act allows the Minister of Education, through consultations to issue government circulars that become law. iii.

Case Law

• This is the second largest source of law in Zambia. • It is also known as Law Reports or Judicial Precedent. • This is when, in disposing of a case, the court refers to how a similar case was decided upon by a superior court. • In Zambia, superior courts are the Supreme Court, the Constitutional Court, the High Court and the Industrial Relations Court.

2.State two (2) elements of good legal system 4.Explain; (a) Act of Parliament (b) Case Law 5.State three (3) importance of Case Law 6.The president has ........days in which he/she can either asset or dissolve the Parliament to pave way for the fresh elections.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

• The High Court and the Industrial Relations Court are at the same level, the difference is in the type of matters they handle. • The High Court handles criminal and civil cases while the Industrial Relations Court handles employment or labour disputes. The four courts handle appeal cases and are therefore known as appellant courts.

PUZZLE 60 PUZZLE 60 1

• Decisions of the appellant courts are binding on subordinate courts.

• The Magistrate Courts and the Local Courts are lower courts. • The decisions of the appellant courts are reported in the Zambia Law Reports.

• Accessible (Obtainable) It should be readily available to members of the public. This means that it should also be affordable. If citizens come into conflict with the law, they should be able to afford legal representation. Similarly, a wronged person should be able to readily access legal means of having their problem dealt with. If the legal system is not affordable, then it excludes a large number of people. • Flexible (Adaptable) Laws have to keep up with social change and therefore, they should change with time. If a type of dispute which was not there previously comes up, the law should change to take care of any new challenge. If it does not, then it is rejecting change. A good law should not reject change. • Moral Values (Ethical) The law should be based on the moral values of society. If laws do not reflect society’s core values, citizens are unlikely to respect and uphold it. Sources of Law in Zambia Sources of law are the starting point to refer to in order to find what the law says when one is faced with a legal problem. Zambia has a dual legal system and relies on the English Law and African Customary Law. i. English Law Sources • Common Law is one of the Laws that Zambia has adopted. Common Law is the Law that started from customs that were common to all parts of England. • England applied this Common Law to its colonies such as Zambia and after independence this became part of the sources of law of the Zambian legal system. ii. Legislation Legislation or statutes is the largest source of law in Zambia. These are laws enacted by parliament. All powers to make laws are vested in parliament. There are three types of laws made by legislation. a) The Constitution • The Constitution is the Supreme Law of the land. Article 1 Paragraph 3 of the 1996 Amended Zambian Constitution states out its supremacy. • It states, This Constitution is the Supreme Law of Zambia and if any other law is inconsistency of this law, that other law will be declared void. • This implies that if any law does not conform to the Constitution, then that law becomes invalid

• For example, if a case handled by the Supreme Court is recorded in the Law Reports, this decision is binding on the High Court and the Industrial Relations Court. The imaginary case below illustrates this point:

Case Laws are important because they: i. Save time as there is no need for a whole new research.

18 20

23 24

ii. Show respect to the judges who made the previous decisions. iii. Ensure equality, uniformity and stability in the law. If a murder case takes place and a decision is made, when another murder case takes place in similar circumstances the same decision as the first murder case should apply regardless of who committed the offence. iv. International Treaties • Zambia is signatory to a number of International Treaties. • The contents of these treaties are the sources of Law. • Note that in order for these International treaties to become Law they have to be domesticated through an Act of Parliament in order to officially become Zambian Statutes. Note: we have two types of legal systems in the world namely; Monist and Dualist. Dualist legal system which recognises International Law as law but does not apply directly on the country not until it is domesticated through an Act of Parliament while Monist Legal system considers International and domestic law as one.

SOLUTION TO PUZZLE 59

v. Customary Law • Customary Law is derived from custom, which is the practice of doing things in society. • These practices differ from the ones in Statutory Instruments because they are not written and not codified. • Before Zambia was colonised, the indigenous people were using their customs, most of which have been in use from prehistoric times, as their law. • For a custom to be recognised and enforced by the courts as law, it must be in existence for a long time, sometimes over centuries and it must be freely accepted by most citizens for it to be binding on them.

• They are easily accessible and conducted mainly in local languages, although English is also allowed. As a result, local courts hear 80% of the total

• Most Zambians are governed by customary law in their personal affairs. • The local courts which administer customary law are located all over the country and they are the ones commonly used by the less privileged and the vulnerable in society.

NO BAIL …Zimbabwe mayor denied bail in high-profile case

ARARE - The mayor of Zimbabwe's capital Harare, Jacob Mafume, was denied bail on Thursday in a case that has triggered fresh accusations of harassment of the country's opposition. Mafume has been charged with defeating the course of justice. He was arrested on Monday for alleged witness tampering in another case involving abuse of office for which he was already out on bail. Mafume was ordered remanded in custody to January 28 by Harare Magistrate Ngoni Nduna. Mafume, elected in September, is a prominent

member of the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), which accused the ruling ZANU-PF party of harassment. "The sabre-rattling ZANU-PF regime is arresting our councillors in order to cow them into submission," it said on Monday. Mafume had been arrested on November 25 on allegations of having allocated residential land to his sister and a colleague. It was while he was on bail on this charge, according to prosecutors, that he tried to interfere with a witness, Edgar Dzehonye, a municipal housing manager. Mafume said he had been arrested in a setup, as he had

never had any contact with Dzehonye. But prosecutors said Mafume had been communicating with Dzehonye and planned to bribe him with the equivalent of $1,500. Nduna said the state's evidence was convincing. "There were existing bail conditions for him including not to interfere with witnesses," Nduna said. "It is therefore clear that this cannot be cured by any other condition but imprisonment is the only remedy and the accused is therefore accordingly denied bail." His lawyers indicated they would immediately file an appeal. – AFP.

BEST FIFA FOOTBALL AWARDS 2020: Betway names Christopher Katongo as brand ambassador By MUKWIMA CHILALA

SPORTS betting company Betway Zambia has appointed former Zambia National Soccer Team captain and 2012 AfCON winner Chris Katongo as its brand ambassador in Zambia. And Betway has also partnered with Katongo’s non governmental organisation, Christopher Katongo Foundation with a donation of an assortment of groceries and food worth K65, 000. Betway Zambia Country Manager Panji Kakube says his company through its corporate social responsibility has partnered with Katongo’s NGO and appointed him brand ambassador so as to invest in projects aimed at uplifting the vulnerable in society. “As a good corporate citizen we are cognizant of the fact that it is our sole responsibility to empower our local communities as we believe this is the right thing to do as a member

of the business community. Betray has a standard practice in the community in which we operate to select an individual or individuals that embody the principles that guide our business module,” Kakube said. These guidelines include responsibility, transperancy, commitment, dedication and resilience. Once such an individual is identified we take strides to towards engaging them as our brand ambassador. We are proud to present you Christopher Katongo as the Betway brand ambassador for Zambia. And Kakube said that Katongo needed no introduction as his accolades spoke for himself. And Katongo described the appointment of brand ambassador as humbling and says that his hardwork and dedication to duty has been recognised. Katongo said that he shall continue to apply the determination and discipline even as a brand ambassador of Betway through the Christopher Katongo Foundation. Determination and hard work has remained my main motivation as a player in Zambia, South Africa, Europe and even in China. I have carried this attitude into my career even as a coach and I continue to apply it to my lifestyle, said Katongo.

Zesco back on top FROM PAGE 16

The stalemate in Choma pushed Zesco United to 19 points, one point ahead of Buildcon who dropped to second with 18 points. The clash of the titans saw Zesco United settle first at Independence Stadium with Clement Mwapes being the first one to test Allan Chibwe in the Green Eagles goal post with an effort which went wide five minutes after kick off. Zesco came close to scoring in the eighth minute through Maybin Kalengo whose header was saved by Chibwe. The visitors continued to dominate the first half of the game and almost broke the deadlock in the 27th minute through left back Fackson Kapumbu whose excellent free kick was tipped over the bar by Chibwe. Green Eagles came close 10 minutes before the break when Michael Mwenya unleashed a powerful shot from outside Zesco’s penalty box which was saved Otieno. Former Red Arrows winger Bruce Musakanya almost gave Zesco the lead two minutes before the break but he was unfortunate as his strike went over the bar. Green Eagles were given a chance to break the deadlock four minutes into the second half after they were award-

ished as the top scorer in the league, cup and Champions League. Manchester City defender Lucy Bronze won the best women's player award. The winners were decided by nominations from national team captains and head coaches, an online ballot of fans and 200 media representatives. This is the first time Le-

ed a free-kick outside Zesco’s penalty box which Mulungwe missed by a whisker. Zesco replied with a fantastic freekick from Kapumbu which was saved by Chibwe before Silwimba fired one over the bar in the 70th minute. After 70 minutes of no goals, Numba Mumamba introduced David Molinga for Enock Sakala while Logic Chingandu replaced Mwape Mwelwa. Samuel Sikaonga replaced Donashano Malama while, Kasoma Luwawa replaces Musakanya. However the changes made no difference as the two sides shared the spoils after the final whistle. The stalemate propelled Eagles to eighth on the Super Division table with 12 points on par with Indeni and Nkwazi who moved one spot down the log. Meanwhile Super League action continues today with Green Buffaloes seeking to bounce back from three consecutive defeats when they host unbeaten Forest Rangers who are coming from beating Buildcon in a Ndola derby played on Wednesday. Red Arrows are at home as they host Young Green Eagles at Nkoloma Stadium while at Indeni Sports complex, Wedson Nyirenda’s Lusaka Dynamos will face Indeni.

No Arsenal 'quick fix' - Arteta MIKEL Arteta said everyone at Arsenal knew there would be no "quick fix" as he scrambles for solutions after a disastrous start to the Premier League season. The Gunners head into today's Premier League match at Everton languishing in 15th place in the table following a 1-1 draw against Southampton. A r s e nal's winless league run now stretches to six matches, with

the club enduring their worst start to a topflight season since 1974/75. Arteta, though, insisted yesterday the "project" was focused on the long term, with tomorrow marking his one-year anniversary in charge. "I said it from the start that I felt really supported by the owners, by the board, the technical director, and then by everybody at the club," said the Spaniard, who took over following the departure of Unai Emery. "At the end of the day, it is the feeling that I feel with the staff, with the coaching, with the players, which is the most important what chemistry do you have? What understanding do you have? Will they follow you? Do they believe in what you are trying to do. "And I have to say 'thank you' because I have not seen anything that goes against what we are trying to do. But it is like anything in this industry, you need results." Arteta, who guided Arsenal to FA Cup success last season, pleaded for patience from fans. "After a big shake-up, we need to find the stability, and in order to do that, we need time," he said. "We all knew, at least the people who made the decision with me to start this new project, that this was not a quick fix and it was going to take time. When you are shaking things up, things can take a while." – SUPERSPORT.

ZANACO eye PFL promotion By MICHAEL MIYOBA

ZANACO Futsal Club coach Wilson Katenge is confident his side will win promotion to the Premier Futsal League (PFL). Katenge said the “Young Bankers” who dominate the PFL division one league with 34-points have had an impressive run in the first round where they have been unbeaten. Katenge said ZANACO, who also compete in the Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) provincial league will win promotion despite facing stiff competition from Pioneer Avengers, DS Academy, Lilanda Bullets and BS Stars who are all in the top five bracket on the log. Katenge said after going unbeaten in the first 12 league games, the team’s target is to win promotion to the top flight futsal league to compete with elite clubs. “It was our first time to play futsal but the boys have gelled very fast and the first round has been okay though there is a lot of competition and it is helping us with our fitness levels. “When we started we just thought of competing because it was our first time but as we are progressing we have realised we can win promotion and play in the Super Division,” Katenge

said. He said ZANACO has managed to be competitive in both the PFL Division one league and the FAZ provincial league because of the availability of a lot of talented players at Young Zanaco FC. ZANACO enjoyed a 6-0 walk over win over DS Academy over the weekend to move to 34 points, three points ahead of Pioneer Avengers who defeated Veterans in their last league match. Pioneer Avengers came from two nil down to beat Veterans 3-2 in a tough encounter. Veterans were leading two nil at half time, Pioneer Avengers won 15-1 in week One. Meanwhile, Blue Bombers suffered a 2-9 defeat to Bil FC as Mthunzi FC recorded their first win, beating Tamanga Juldan 7-5.
