EIGHT UNRULY UNZA STUDENTS BANNED …attempted to burn office By SILUMESI MALUMO

E

I G H T University of Zambia (UNZA) students who allegedly attempted to burn the Vice-

Chancellor’s office during a riot on Tuesday night have been suspended. Vice Chancellor, Luka Mumba, said that the management, using the CCTV, identified eight students who were involved in unruly behaviour. Professor Mumba said in an interview yesterday that management had only identified the eight students in the meantime. He said that management wanted to be fair enough to the unruly students, the reason it settled for suspension. “After investigations, we did identify the eight students and we have taken action against them. We have suspended them and soon than later we shall invite them to appear before the disciplinary committee,” he said. Prof Mumba said the students could not be left

scot free for engaging in such inhuman act. He said that the students had various means to approach the management regarding the challenges they were facing instead of engaging in inhuman acts. Prof Mumba said the action taken by the management would deter others from engaging in unruly behaviour. On Wednesday , some UNZA students rioted in a desperate effort to force management to allow them sit for examinations even when they had not paid tuition fees. UNZA management had blocked some students from sitting for exams for failure to clear the outstanding tuition arrears. The students run amok and attempted to burn the office of the Vice Chancellor for denying them to sit for the final examinations.

‘President Lungu’s eligibility was long settled’ By SILUMESI MALUMO THE Constitutional Court ruled on the eligibility of President Edgar Lungu and that is final, Vice-President Inonge Wina has said. The Vice President said the eligibility of President Lungu which was being debated extensively was already settled. She told Parliament yesterday: “The court ruled and it rests just like that.” Ms Wina was responding to Patriotic Front (PF) Chifubu Member of Parliament (MP) Frank Ng'ambi who wanted

to know what was being done on the continued debate on the eligibility of President Lungu. Dr Ng’ambi said others were on record stating that the matter was already settled and those who had continued to undermine the ruling of the Concourt should be charged with contempt of court. Meanwhile, Ms Wina said that the process to ensure that the former Ministers that stayed in office in 2016 pay back would take a bit long. She said that the court ruled over the matter but

HH has no vision for Zambia - Sean Tembo By SILUMESI MALUMO and PETER SICHALI

HAKAINDE Hichilema does not have any vision for Zambia, as seen from his simplistic perspective of Zambia’s economic problems, Patriot for Economic Progress (PEP) has said. PEP President Sean Tembo said: “l have been a very keen follower and at some point, close associate of the UPND leader, and I know for a fact that he does not have any vision for Zambia, let alone a vision

necessary to take us out of this deep economic challenges. “Despite having two degrees, Mr Hichilema has a very simplistic perspective of Zambia’s economic problems. For example, time and again, he has said that his government will provide free education to everyone from kindergarten to university, where he will get the money to fund such a huge expenditure, nobody knows. Mr Tembo told the Daily Nation yesterday that Mr Hichilema had failed to propose any tangible alternative

Ms Wina said there was need to determine on individual basis how much needed to solutions to Zambia’s many economic problems. “Time and again, he has argued on radio that he will scrap all taxes on fuel once he ascends to office. How he will bridge the resultant fiscal deficit, nobody knows,” the opposition leader said. Mr Tembo said the UPND leader’s solution to current debt crisis was that Government should go on the International Monetary Fund (IMF) package. He said if Mr Hichilema had ideas to turn around the economy of the country, he would had been giving tangible solutions when he was in the opposition. “HH has

Meanwhile, Mr Tembo said Mr Hichilema could not ascend to power because he had already shown traits of dictatorship by being at the helm of the UPND party for a continuous period of 14 years without ever going to a convention. “It is unreasonable to expect someone who does not respect their own party constitution to suddenly develop the appetite to respect the Republican Constitution,” he said.

Kafue-Mazabuka road works at 99p.c By KETRA KALUNGA and SANFROSSA MANYINDA PHASE one of the KafueMazabuka road from Turnpike to Chikankata turn off covering a stretch of about 38.5 kilometers is near completion with about 99 percent of works done. Road Development Agency (RDA) Director Communications and Corporate Affairs, Masuzyo Ndhlovu said the first 38.5 km would soon be completed and open to traffic. Mr Ndhlovu said in an interview that the contractor, China Henan International Cooperation Group Company Limited, was now laying the last portion of asphalt. He said the road rehabilitation covered widening the existing road, excavations and grading among other earthworks. “Lot 1 is near completion

and the contractor is laying the last portion of asphalt. Soon the first 38.5 km will be substantially complete and open to traffic. Physical progress is at 99%,” he said. He said works under Lot 2, from Chikankata turn off to Mazabuka General Hospital were at 7.9 percent and are expected to be completed in June next year. Mr Ndlovu said the contractor working on a stretch of 33.5km is China State Engineering Corporation and the contract has a duration of nine months. It started on December 3, last year. Meanwhile, Copperbelt Permanent Secretary Bright Nundwe commended the RDA for its pro-activeness in monitoring road construction projects across the country. Mr Nundwe said the RDA had aggressively been monitoring and informing the nation on road projects it was undertaking. He said without constant dissemination of information on what RDA was doing, it was difficult for people to appreciate what government was doing in all parts of the country.

Nakacinda clings to MMD By GRACE CHAILE-LESOETSA NOMINATED Member of Parliament, Raphael Nakacinda, has asked the Lusaka High Court to strike out MMD national secretary, Elizabeth Chitika's defence and counter-claim for irregularities. Mr Nakacinda has sued the MMD and cited Ms Chitika in her capacity as national secretary as the defendant in the matter. The nominated MP is seeking a declaration that his expulsion from the party was invalid and void. Mr Nakacinda wanted an order of interim injunction restraining Ms Chitika from continued interference with his membership in the MMD but Lusaka High Court judge, Pixie Yangailo declined to grant the order. He also wants a declaration that his expulsion from MMD was illegal by reason of procedural impropriety and absolute defiance of the established rules of natural Justice. But Ms Chitika in her defence and counter claim said that Mr Nakachinda used his access to the MMD accounts and assets, to pillage and misappropriate the MMD coffers and that he has hidden, personalised or sold MMD property and some motor vehicles. Mr Nakacinda prayed that Chitika's pleadings should be struck out for being irregular.

KCM to appeal against stay … Court of Appeal order to be challenged in Supreme Court From Page 1 Mr Lungu said said in an interview yesterday that he would ensure that the liquidation case was followed to the letter. “We shall definitely appeal to the Supreme. We want to ask the Supreme Court for stay of High Court ruling pending judgement,” Mr Lungu said.

I therefore, urge all employees to continue working normally, safely and remain steadfast in the pursuit to make KCM a great organization. Our stakeholders should also remain calm as we continue to work towards a common goal safely and increased production,” he said. Mr Lungu explained that the Court of Appeal had not discharged the Provisional Liquidator and that he remained with full powers as granted by the High Court of Zambia on May 21, last year. “In view of this latest Judgment, Mr. Lungu wishes to update employees, business partners, the nation and all KCM stakeholders that the Court of Appeal has not discharged the Provisional Liquidator and he remains with full powers as granted by the High Court of Zambia on 21st May 2019,” he said. Mr Lungu said operations of KCM would remain on course with production ramp-up being the key focus. He said as provided for under Corporate Insolvency Act and powers granted

to the Provisional Liquidator, he would continue to exercise the executive responsibility of running the company. The KCM Executive Management Committee remains accountable to the Provisional Liquidator. “I therefore, urge all employees to continue working normally, safely and remain steadfast in the pursuit to make KCM a great organization. Our stakeholders should also remain calm as we continue to work towards a common goal safely and increased production,” he said. Vedanta Resources, the main shareholder in KCM has been locked in a dispute with the Zambian government since May last year. A liquidator was appointed to run KCM, which is 20 percent owned by Government through ZCCM-IH. Zambia accused Vedanta of breaching the terms of its licence. ZCCM Investment Holdings PLC asked the Lusaka High Court to grant them an order to appoint Milingo Lungu of Messrs Lungu Simwanza and Company as provisional liquidator of Konkola Copper Mines PLC. This is according to an application for ex parte order appointing a provisional liquidator that was filed in the High Court on May 21. According to the order filed by the ZCCM, the liquidator had been given powers to carry assets of KCM. Mr Lungu was also given powers to defend any action or other legal proceedings in the name and or on behalf of the Respondent.

KASONSO DOESN’T LISTEN - UPND

… MP has been rejected by constituents By AARON CHIYANZO

S

OLWEZI West Member of Parliament, Teddy Kasonso has not listened to advice not to awkwardly mingle with the Patriotic Front so everyone has let him be, UPND spokesperson Charles Kakoma has said. Mr Kakoma said Mr Kansonso was a rejected MP who was hanging himself with a rope from electorates because of his continued questionable manoeuvres with PF. He said Mr Kasonso was lying when he claimed that no MP could take development to a constituency without Government support. But when contacted, Mr Kansonso said Mr Kakoma did not even know how to run a constituency hence he would not want to comment further.

“I don’t want to comment further, I already talked in my constituency. Mr Kakoma does not even know how to run a constituency,” he said. Mr Kakoma said Mr Kasonso had on several times been advised against associating with PF in an awkward manner but that he does not listen. “What do you do with a person who doesn’t listen? Just watch him,” he said. Mr Kakoma said Mr Kansonso had been duped into believing that PF was delivering development. He said councils were delivering development in most districts and not the central Government. Mr Kakoma said in an interview that the development Mr Kasonso was boasting about in his constituency was delivered by the council, which

GOVERNMENT should consult us when issuing mining licenses to investors in the district, chiefs in Mambwe have demanded. The chiefs said it was saddening just to see investors operating in their chiefdoms without their knowledge. Speaking when President Edgar Lungu met four chiefs in the district yesterday, Senior Chief Nsefu who spoke on behalf of others said there was need for the Government to consult them when issuing licenses to investors as they were custodians of the land.

He also complained that there was serious security concern in the area because some foreign nationals were flocking to the area without being detected by the immigration officers. Senior Chief Nsefu asked President Lungu to help resolve boundary disputes between chiefs in the area. The traditional leader also appealed to the President to consider working on the Musendile Bridge and road network in the district. He however thanked the government for massive infrastructure development in the area such as clinics, schools among others. He also

were dominated by the UPND. He said Mr Kasonso was now siding with the ruling party because the electorate in his constituency did not want him. Mr Kakoma said Solwezi West constituents had made it clear that they did not want Mr Kasonso, and it was the reason he was now associating himself with PF. “The people of Solwezi West have already said that they do not want Mr Kasonso. They have rejected him and that’s he is doing this,” he said. Mr Kakoma warned that Mr Kasonso’s ‘games’ with the PF were tantamount to hanging himself with a rope. He however said that it was up to the grassroot officials in his constituency to re-adopt him in the 2021 elections. Mr Kasonso said it was not

Teddy Kasonso necessary for UPND MPs to ignore the Government due to partisan politics because they would deny people the much-needed development. He said opposition MPs should be bold enough to tell the electorate that even the CDF administered through Ward Development Committees was from the Government to develop communities.

800 mining licences I listen to sound face revocation advice - Lungu By AARON CHYANZO

OVER 800 mining rights holders have been given a two-week ultimatum to clear their dues or risk having their licences revoked. This is in respect of their annual area fees owed to the state. The Ministry of Mines and Mineral Development said in a notice that holders of mining and non-mining (mineral processing) rights should pay on or before the anniversary of grant of the mining right or mineral processing licence. The Ministry warned that failure to pay would lead to

the cancellation of mining or processing licence. “You are therefore advised to pay your outstanding area charges within Fourteen (14) days of this notification, failure to which your license shall be tabled for cancellation without further notice pursuant to Section 72 of the Mines and Minerals Development Act No. 11 of 2015,” the notice read in part. It stated that licence holders who had made payment already should provide proof of payment. According to the notice, 387 large scale licence holders and 418 small scale licence holders were still owing the state.

thanked government for early distribution of farm inputs. Other Chiefs in attendance were Msoro, Malama and Jumbe. In response, President Lungu said he would liase with the ministry responsible to see how best their concern could be attended to. The President also urged investors to ensure they paid a courtesy call on the chiefs in the area they operated in as a way of showing respect. To the imigration officers who were not performing because they have overstayed, the President said they would be dealt with accordingly. He said Government should

not transfer erring officers because doing so would be transferring a problem to another area. Mr Lungu said boundaries should not lead to fighting among one people who are all Zambians. He also urged the chiefs to encourage their subjects to register in large numbers as voters so that they could participate in choosing their preferred candidates in 2021. Later, the President met headmen and the clergy whom he described as strategic partners in development. He assured them that government was commited to improving their living standards.

I DO listen to sound advice from the opposition but disregard those that are not making sense, President Edgar Lungu has said. President Lungu said there was nothing wrong in listening to voices of reason and also learn from others, but that he would not entertain distractive voices. The Head of State was speaking when he inspected a cashew nut field in Mambwe. Mr Lungu regretted that when there was change of Government in 1991, the cultivation of cashew nuts which was started by the UNIP government was neglected. He said there was need for any government to continue on any progressive project and improve on it unlike getting rid of everything because not everything could be bad. The President said Zambia was now learning from Mozambique, Ivory Coast and Tanzania among other countries in the production of cashew nut. "So, let us learn from others. Evening from the opposition. Let's not worry about who is giving us idea. I listen even to the opposition when they say something sensible. And if it doesn't make sense, I ignore," President Lungu said. President Lungu said cashew nut production has the potential to transform

Dr Lungu Zambia because it was one of the high-value crops in the world. He said promoting cashew nut production was one of the effective measures for supporting alternative livelihoods and climate change adaption. Meanwhile, Agriculture Minister, Michael Katambo, said Government had created an enabling environment for players in the agricultural sector. Mr Katambo said cashew nut production was as a tool for poverty reduction and economic diversification. And a cashew nut farmer, Ms Misozi Kadewele, urged other farmers to consider venturing into cashew nut production. Ms Katewele said people should not wait to have a huge chunk of land before embarking on cashew nut production. She explained that cashew nut was tolerant to adverse weather conditions, and most importantly, it was a high value cash crop which could become a money spinner for farmers.

TIMELY WARNING INSPECTOR-GENERAL of Police Kakoma Kanganja’s warning against those plotting to cause mayhem and civil strife after the 2021 presidential and general elections is timely. Much as we realise that the political atmosphere will be hot as the various political parties jostle for the country’s presidency and parliamentary seats, focus must not be lost that peace must prevail at the end. Obviously, Mr Kanganja, as head of the Police Service cannot just be issuing empty threats that are not based on evidence. He is privy to intelligence information and quite clearly, there are some political elements in the country who could be plotting mischief should the election results not go their way. We hope that Mr Kanganja’s warning will not be construed as bullying especially by the opposition. From our understanding, the warning applies to all across the political divide. Zambians want the country to be at peace before and after the 2021 elections. The country has had peaceful presidential and parliamentary elections since independence and people want that tradition to be maintained. The assurance by Mr Kanganja therefore that the Police Service was more than ready to deal with those who intend to deliberately break the law before, during and after the 2021 general elections is welcome. Mr Kanganja said the Zambia Police Service would not fail to deal with lawbreakers because tools and means were available. Yes, it is not just the tools and means that is at the disposal of the police, but the goodwill of the Zambian people. As Mr Kanganja noted, the increasing levels of violence, abuse of social media, and propaganda in the country were of much concern to his command. The sporadic violence that has broken out during some of the by-elections held this year should be condemned, and must not be accepted as the norm. To this end, we urge all political parties to commit themselves to ensuring that peace prevails as they crisscross the country to try and woo the electorate. It is important that even as the country inches closer to the 2021 elections, political parties avoid rhetoric that may infuriate opponents but articulate their points in a civil manner. We agree with Mr Kanganja that all political players must conduct issue-based campaigns and desist from any form of violence. Thus all political parties must also commit themselves to work with the police. Parties must not regard the Police Service as their enemy as it enforces the Public Order Act, which after all is their mandate. One of the best ways in which the parties they show their commitment to peace is by dissolving their so-called security wings or militias comprising young cadres in “military fatigues.” These in most cases are responsible for the widespread violence during campaigns. Although the Police Service has over the years often been accused of favouring the ruling parties in its enforcement, we note that President Edgar Lungu has recently advised the police to allow the opposition “breathing room” to operate. It did not need the President to say so. Mr Kanganja and his officers should thus realise that they have the President’s backing as long as they are applying the law equally.

OME former ministers and lawyers are misleading Zambians over President Edgar Lungu's eligibility to stand in 2021 elections, Kwacha Member of Parliament Joe Malanji has said. He said the former ministers, who were now poverty-stricken, were hoping that if UPND formed Government they would be given some government portfolios so that they could recover from their poverty. Mr Malanji, who is also Foreign Affairs Minister, said Government would not waste time responding to lies and cheap propaganda from the opposition. He said the government would continue to work on infrastructure development in various sectors like education and health. He was speaking yesterday at Riverside Extension Primary School in Kitwe when he commissioned the newly constructed classroom block and later made a ground-breaking ceremony for the construction of a one by five classroom

Mr Malanji said Government’s desire was to develop education and health infrastructure and this was why he had embarked on construction and upgrading of schools and clinics in his Constituency. "The opposition is busy on social media calling us all sorts of names but as PF Government we don't believe in social media but in meeting

people and proving to them that we can perform,” he said. Mr Malanji said he would in the next two weeks commission a maternity clinic in Bulangililo before starting construction of a maternity clinic in Ipusukilo. He was accompanied by Kitwe District Commissioner, Chileshe Bweupe, District Education Board Secretary Chrispin Nyungila and PF officials.

OVER K2 million released by the Chinese government for the construction of a conference hall at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been squandered, the Auditor General's report has revealed. The ministry had misapplied the funds on unrelated activities such as air tickets, subsistence allowances and stationary.

The AG's report disclosed that the site possession certificate was signed on August 30, 2018. On October, 23 2018, the contractor requested for an advance payment of K944,656 VAT inclusive which was not paid as the ministry had misapplied the funds on unrelated activities such as air tickets, subsistence allowances and stationary. The report disclosed that a physical inspection of the site carried out in July, this year revealed that only site clearing had been done.

“I wish to urge all political players to conduct issue-based campaigns and deceased from any form of violence as will be directed by the public order act to deal with this situation, however, let there be peace before, during and after the elections, '' he said. Mr Kanganya said the dream of the Zambia Police Service to provide online service was being realised through the launch of the Government Service Bus. He said the integration on the service bus was meant to deal with the delays in banking of the government revenue. Mr Kanganja added that it was also meant to remove the tag of corruption and improve the interaction of the service with the public resulting in quality service delivery.

"On 3rd August 2018, a contract was signed between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Messrs China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (Zambia) Limited for the construction of the conference hall at a contract sum of K3,778,625, VAT inclusive with a completion period of six (6) months ending on 2nd February 2019,"The reported states.

No new districts anymore, says Veep By SILUMESI MALUMO

GOVERNMENT will not create any new districts because the economy cannot take extra responsibilities, Vice-President Inonge Wina has said. Ms Wina said with the current economic situation, Government would not risk creating any new district. She was responding to UPND Chavuma MP, Victor Lumayi, who wanted to know whether Government would consider creating a new district in Chavuma for development to accelerate. Mr Lumayi said that he had written to Government requesting that a new district to be called Kashishi be created in Chavuma so that meaningful development could be realised. But Ms Wina said creating a new district specifically in Chavuma would be a serious burden. The Vice-President indicated that when a new district was created there was need to allocate resources for infrastructure development but the economy could not hold such responsibility. Ms Wina however said it was shocking that the UPND MP was requesting for the creation of a new district when his party opposed the programme which was started by the PF founding President Michael Sata. She said that the programme which the late president introduced was meant to decentralise power for the people to access services but the UPND extensively opposed it.

‘2021 polls do or die’ …transparency needed

WINA WARNS AGAINST CARELESS TALK By SILUMESI MALUMO

Mr Silavwe

V

By SILUMESI MALUMO THE Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) must be transparent in executing duties because the 2021 general elections will be a do or die, Golden Jubilee President Jackson Silavwe said. Mr Silavwe said many political players especially those aspiring for the presidency would consider the 2021 general elections a do or die. He said that it was important that the ECZ handled the general election in a prudent and transparent way which would not cause chaos in the

country. The opposition leader said many political party presidents were aiming to win the general elections at all cost. Mr Silavwe said the ECZ should ensure that no gaps would be left when conducting the elections because this could cause mayhem in the country. “You are in an environment where some people feel that the 2021 general elections is do or die and people have made pronouncements. So, the ECZ must ensure that we handover the peaceful country to the next generation,” he said.

ICE President Inonge Wina has warned that alarming statements from leaders in the ruling party and the opposition will cause mayhem as the country is going towards elections. Ms Wina said that it was important that all the leaders from the ruling and opposition tamed their tongues in order to preserve peace in the country. She said that carless statements from the leaders would cause harm to innocent Zambians which should not be the case. Ms Wina told Parliament yesterday: “There will be serious conflict in the country if the leaders do not tame their tongue.” The Vice President said in 2016 there were pronouncements of the ‘Mapatizya formula’ and in recent past there had

been issue of ‘Armageddon’ and such should not be the type of language from leaders. She was responding to Kabompo Member of Parliament (MP), Ambrose Lufuma, who wanted to know whether the equipment being bought for the police were intended to instil fear in Zambians. This was during the Vice President’s question time. He said that some PF members and Ministers had many times said that there woule be war in the country because the ruling party was not ready to hand over power to any opposition political party. But Ms Wina said: “I don’t recall any PF official saying that there will be war in 2021, I have not heard that and I have not read that.” She however said if any party official found wanting, would be asked to retract the statement because the party does not condone lawlessness.

Ms Wina said PF was in Government and could not be in forefront to cause havoc. Meanwhile, the Vice-President informed the House that the ECZ would be informing the nation weekly about the number of voters captured ahead of 2021 general elections. She said that the voter registration exercise was being done in phases and the ECZ would be updating the nation on the progress made during that period. Ms Wina said that recently the ECZ released the number of voters captured for phase one, and Government was now awaiting the update for phase two which was underway. She said additional staff had been deployed while the number of kits had been increased from 1,000 to 3,000 and they would soon be dispatched to highly populated areas. Ms Wina said this would enable the ECZ reach the target.

"Our supplier who is NERIA'S Investments started positioning inputs into the district on 2nd June 2020 and started distributing inputs to the farmers on the 29th September and concluded on 4th November," he said. NERIA’s Investments General Manager, Martin Chaikatisha, said his company had delivered 35,095 tonnes of D compound and 28,055 tonnes of Urea fertilizers in Eastern Province. “As you can see the shed is empty, meaning the farmers collected the inputs a long time ago so you know it’s testimony that early distribution is happening it's not a hoax these are things that visible,” Mr Chaikatisha said.

Levy Mwanawasa Hospital rehab underway By KALOBWE BWALYA THE Rehabilitation works at the old Levy Mwanawasa Hospital will start soon as the Chinese contractor has started removing the remains for the hospital. Levy Mwanawasa Teaching Hospital Senior medical Superintendent, Parthians Tembo, said the hospital had not completely moved out from the old Levy Mwanawasa Hospital, but that a contractor had started carry out surveys in readiness for the rehabilitation works.

Dr Tembo told Daily Nation in an interview that the contractor has so far brought in the equipment so that works could start. He, however, could not confirm as to when the contractor would fully move on the ground so that the works on the old hospital could fully commence. Last week, the hospital management shifted to the new hospital so that the works could commence. Health Minister, Chitalu Chilufya, said the old Levy Mwanawasa Hospital once

rehabilitated would be upgraded to women and newborn hospital. Dr Chilufya said Government had been implementing hospital modernization programme since 2011 to Old Levy Mwanawasa Hospital order to provide modern and specialized services to the Zambians. The Minister said the programme focused on three remain areas, namely, infrastructure, human resource development and equipment, within the context of quality of service.

By NATION REPORTER GOVERNMENT has called for support from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) towards the tourism sector in the post Covid-19 recovery process. Tourism and Arts Permanent Secretary, Auxilia Ponga, said Government had crafted a comprehensive plan of developing a linkage between the Southern and Northern Tourism Circuit to increase the length of stay for visiting tourists. Dr Ponga said this during a meeting in Lusaka yesterday when UNDP Country Representative, Lionel Laurens paid a courtesy on her. She said with the support of cooperating partners, the Ministry would develop and actualise the much-needed infrastructure for product development.

Dr Ponga said Tourism was labour intensive and if well supported, could create a greater potential for youth employment and poverty alleviation. And Mr Laurens said UNDP was ready to offer the much-needed technical support as most tourism activities were in line with his organisation’s mandate. He said his organisation has a huge interest in poverty alleviation for youth and women, and that if these get jobs in the tourism sector, would mark positive development. M. Laurens said there was need to develop tourism products and learn from from other countries in the region. He called from collaboration between Zambia and other countries in the region so that benefits from regional tourism could be realised.

ZAMEFA RECORDS LOSS Almost all the farmers have received farm inputs through Farmer Input Support Programme (FISP)

By NOEL IYOMBWA ALMOST all the farmers have received farm inputs through Farmer Input Support Programme (FISP), Nyimba Investment has said. Nyimba Investment head of sales and marketing, William Mulendema, said his company’s 18 depots have done 92 percent in completing the distribution of fertilizer. Mr Mulendema disclosed that the procurement of fertilizer was completed at the end of July and by August 8 this year all depots were ready for distribution. He said this during the launch of the 2020/2021 planting season at Nyakuluma village, Chief Mwanjawanthu’s area in Petauke. “Farmers have already collected 92 percent of inputs from the input supplied under FISP program distributed in 54 districts. “18 of our depots have attained 100 percent completion and by the end of this month we will complete distribution”, he said. He said the company had started bring fertilizer for the 2021/2022 farming season and that inputs would

be ready in the middle of the 2021 farming season. Mr Mulendema noted that the company would to serve the farmers adequately each year. Nyimba, he said, had increased capital investment in transportation with over 150 tonnes and grain capacity of over 140 tonnes this year He said the company increased milling capacity to three mills this year in line with Government desire to help the farmers. Mr Mulendema observed that redeeming of inputs had been smooth this year. Zambia National Farmers Union president, Jervis Zimba, expressed disappointment with reports that some farmers were selling fertilizer at K280 after redeeming from the FISP programme. Mr Zimba suggested that agricultural extension officers should be inspecting beneficiaries’ fields to establish how the farmer used the inputs. He appealed to Government start labelling bags of fertilizer which farmers would be getting under FISP for easy identification and those found wanting should be removed from the system.

ETAL Fabricators Zambia PLC (ZAMEFA) reported a loss per share for the financial year ended September 2020, which are 228 percent higher than the prior year. The company loss per share was 227 percent higher than the previous year, according to the financial results for the year ended September 2020 posted on the Lusaka Securities Exchange (LuSE). ZAMEFA indicated that the increased losses are primarily due to the substantial weakening of the Kwacha, against the United States dollar (USD), of 53 percent since the Group and Company’s previous financial year-end and the corresponding re-measurement of the Group’s USD based liabilities. It indicated that the Group’s vulnerability to the volatility of the Kwacha to the dollar was a direct result of overdue Value Added Tax (VAT) and duty draw back refunds. This is from the Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA), which required the Group to finance its operations through the utilisation of dollar-based funding. “A significant portion of the overdue amounts due by the ZRA were collected towards the

Chikanta chiefdom food secure By NOEL IYOMBWA CHIEF Chikanta of the Tonga speaking people of Southern Province says his chiefdom has not been affected by hunger. The traditional leader said that unlike some other parts of the province, his chiefdom was food secured. He said that farmers still have enough maize stocks from last farming season and that now they were busy preparing for the coming season. “Fortunately despite the dry spells, most farmers managed to have something. People in my chiefdom still have enough maize from the previous season and now they are busy preparing for the coming season.

good agriculture methods and prepare adequately to avoid starvation. He also advised farmers to plant the right seed according to their region. The traditional leader observed that bad and untimely agriculture was one of the contributions of starvation in the country. “Farmers should prepare adequately, early and most importantly plant the right seed and apply the right farming methods such conservation farming.

Chief Chikanta “Fortunately despite the dry spells, most farmers managed to have something. People in my chiefdom still have enough maize from the previous season and now they are busy preparing for the coming season.” “Most farmers do not prepare adequately as a result this leads to low yields. As for my chiefdom I must say that we are food secured,” he said. The traditional leader who is Seedco brand ambassador was in Petauke for the launch of the national planting season by President Edgar Lungu.

KALUMBILA MINERALS FIGHTS DEFORESTATION By JACKSON MAPAPAYI

K

A L U M B I L A Minerals Limited has partnered with the forestry department in conserving the Lualaba and Bushingwa forest reserves in Kalumbila. The partnership has been prompted by the influx of people into the district which has triggered the demand for charcoal, timber and other

forest products. This came to light during the introduction of eight honorary forest officers who will be manning the two forest reserves. Kalumbila Minerals Trident Foundation manager, Joseph Ngwira, said that the role of the mining company was to provide logistical support to the forestry department. Mr Ngwira said the mining

firm was doing so in order to safeguard the environment within the catchment area. He said the objectives of the partnership was to ensure forest conservation in order to prevent deforestation and support sustainable forest resource utilization. Mr Ngwira stated that his company had a moral obligation to support conservation. hence the move to partner with Government.

Kalumbila District Commissioner (DC), Robinson Kalota, who was represented by District Education Board Secretary Mutinta Mubanga, said there had been a shift in terms of deforestation rate from the line of rail to less populated areas in North western province. He said this was due to mining development in Solwezi and Kalumbila districts.

Dundumwezi pledges support for Lungu By OLIVER SAMBOKO

WE will vote for President Edgar Lungu in next year’s election because he has changed our lives through massive developmental projects in Dundumwezi, village headmen in Chikanta chiefdom have vowed. Speaking on behalf of other headmen, senior headman Chiinga said for many years, the people of Dundumwezi had been living like abandoned orphans until President Lungu decided to come to their aid.

Now that he brought us development will ensure that he returns the Presidency so that he can continue serving us,” he said. He said the residents in Dundumwezi were fed up of UPND lies against the PF administration. Headman Chiinga said UPND member of Parliament Edgar Sing'ombe was absent and hoped that this time around the electorate would elect a PF candidate.

Nkana fan’s beating of coach Chabinga unaccepted Dear Editor,

NKANA Football Club is one of the club’s in the super division. The team is the current premier league champion and it is known to have the most notorious soccer fans in the country. The Nkana soccer fans are known to resort to hooliganism in an event of their team losing a game be it at home or away. This kind of hooliganism exhibited by the soccer fans is unacceptable. It kills the purpose of unifying people through sport, particularly football. One of the Nkana soccer fans last Wednesday jumped the wall fence of Nkoloma Stadium to attack coach Manfred Chabinga. Nkana were then trailing 3-0 in the match against the Zambia Army sponsored outfit, Green. The game ended 5-0 in favour of Buffaloes. Manfred Chabinga was at the receiving end as the soccer fan unleashed punches on the former. To avoid being

PF HAS ‘SAFE’ CANDIDATE …Lungu is eligible for presidency Dear Editor,

I

T is strange that some individuals and organisations have resurrected the debate on whether President Edgar Lungu is eligible to contest the 2021 presidential election. Even after the Constitutional Court has declared that it will not go back to discussion its judgement on President Lungu’s eligibility because it is final, it is unproductive for the nation to waste precious time arguing over the matter. Those who have carefully read the judgement and the Article 106 of the republican Constitution know the truth. And the truth is that President Lungu is doing his first term in office and will be vying for his second and last term as President of Zambia. In 2018 a consortium of political parties petitioned the ConCourt to state whether President Lungu was eligible to stand as a presidential candidate in next year’s general elections. In December 2018, the court delivered its judgement after hearing from the parties in which it interpreted the article that talks about presidential candidates and tenure of office. It explained that a term of office under the current

Constitution as amended in 2016 is three to five years. A person who serves less than three years as president of Zambia cannot therefore be said to have served a term of office. Why is President Lungu eligible? The applicants (Dan Pule and others) wanted to know specifically if the period President Lungu served from January 25, 2015 to September 13, 2016 constituted a full (five years) term? The second question was whether he specifically and as an individual was eligible to stand as a candidate for presidential elections in 2021? Before answering the questions, the court decided to correct and or rather reframe the questions by removing the name of Edgar Chagwa Lungu out of the questions saying that the issue or the questions should not be individualised or target President Lungu but that the questions should be generalised. Meaning that the case was not about President Lungu’s eligibility in 2021 but about an interpretation of a presidential term which straddled two constitutional regimes, that is, 1996 and 2016 constitutions. Note that this case was not about President Lungu as an individual. After explaining what

this case was all about, here are the answers to the two questions raised by Dan Pule and others: 1. That the period served by President Lungu was not, or cannot be a full term and, please note that it’s of no use at this stage to try to understand reasons or the court’s rationale on how it arrived at this conclusion. 2. That it was not useful or necessary for the court to answer the second question... (because it had become otiose or empty, hollow, idle, nugatory, vain and therefore served no purpose,). Simply put, and this is now my own spin on the matter, President Lungu is eligible to stand in 2021 according to the answer given to the first question by the Constitutional Court. It was not a full term and, if it was not a full term, it simply means that he can stand, period. It doesn’t matter whether the reasoning by the court was flawed or not. The train has already left the platform, the court has said it and it is final! On the second question becoming otiose (not necessary), the court is saying so because it cannot be drawn to discuss the question of whether or not ECL as an individual is eligible because, according to the judges, the case and the questions were not about

an individual and should not have been about him as an individual but about the interpretation of the law in general. So, the court refused to answer the question on the eligibility of President Lungu. However, and as you can see, the failure or refusal by the court to answer that question does not change the fact that his first holding of office (January 2015-September 2016) was not a term. To me that was and remains an indirect answer. Of course, at the filing of his papers, and given the demise of Bill number 10, some people would want to personally challenge President Lungu’s eligibility to stand as president. The courts this time around will be forced to address the matter directly concerning the President as an individual. I guess those not happy with the current ruling in the ‘Dan Pule and Others’ case will be hoping, or technically having a second bite at the cherry. But their case will be fatally weak. That’s my educated guess. CHELEMAN NSHITIMA, Financial analyst, Lusaka.

outdone, coach Chabinga retaliated and it became a punch for punch affair. The Nkana coach was later red carded for the physical confrontation with the rowdy fan. The soccer fan demanded that coach Chabinga leave the technical bench. The Nkana soccer fans will never change their behaviour as they were banned from watching the match at the stadium a few years ago. Worse still, the disciplinary action taken against Nkana for the fans’ uncouth behaviour seems not to be too harsh to deter them from being violent. As though this was ot bad enough, the Nkana fans beat up a referee after a premier league game and they accused the referee of bad officiating against their club. The Nkana fans have not been spared from trading punches with their rival soccer fans. However, any form of violence by the soccer fans during and after the match is a serious offence which attracts penalty which can be in the form of fine or banning by the Football Association of Zambia (FAZ), the local soccer governing body. In conclusion, the bad behaviour exhibited by the soccer fan who turned physical on coach Chabinga to vent his anger on the latter is uncalled for. In view of the unbecoming behaviour by the soccer fan, the appropriate action must be taken to deter the would-be offenders. ELEMIYA PHIRI, Lusaka.

‘Mopani clinic must extend operating hours’ By SANFROSSA MANYINDA RESIDENTS of Mukuba Natwange in Kitwe have appealed to Government to take over running of Natwange Mopani Clinic and extend operating hours. The residents complained that the clinic which is in the hands of Mopani Copper Mine only operated from 07:30 up to 14:00 hours, a situation they said was inconveniencing. One of the residents, Ms Esther Chanda, complained

NDOLA TRANSPORTERS FUME that the challenge was long overdue and needed quick intervention. Ms Chanda wondered why the only health centre in the area could be closing in the afternoon when emergencies could happen at any time especially in the evening. “We do not understand why the clinic closes at 14:00 hours. Does it mean illnesses are also supposed to wait until the following day when the clinic opens?” she wondered. Another resident, Ms Sara Banda, complained that it was costly for them to look for transport so that they could access health centres in the neighbouring areas especially at night. But Bupe ward aspiring councillor, Warren Mulenga, said he would engage the District Commissioner’s office and see how best the matter could be resolved. Mr Mulenga said that he would push in a formal complaint to Government to engage Mopani to adjust the hours of operation.

…accuse council of unfair treatment By SANFROSSA MANYINDA

T

RANSPOTERS and traders at Mulungushi Bus Station have complained of unfair treatment after a prominent bus operator was given a greenlight to construct an office complex at the public facility. A group led by the bus station chairperson, Mwaba Mumba, sought audience with the Ndola City Council to air their grievances after Likili Bus Services embarked on the construction of offices at the station owned by the local authority. Transporters and traders complained that Likili Bus Services was given the opportunity to construct offices and a bus shelter while the intra-city bus operators had not been given similar opportunities. Mr Mumba said the operators did not want Likili to operate from Mulungushi because the company was an inter-city bus operator who should be given an alternative place to operate from. He said the bus operators and traders were also

angry that the developer destroyed booths at the station on Tuesday. But the Ndola City Council assured transporters and traders at the Mulungushi Bus Station that their concerns of unfair treatment would be addressed. Ndola Mayor Amon Chisenga told a group that the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the Ndola City Council and Likili Bus Services would be reviewed in order to find a solution that would be fair to

all parties. The Mayor said the Council would look into the matter so that the concerns raised by transporters are addressed. “I want to assure you, that we will review the matter because we need to ensure that people are happy. And for now, Likili will be told to stop any construction,” Mr Chisenga said. Mr Chisenga said it was unfortunate that when Likili Bus Services started the

construction the previous day, some mobile money booths were removed by the developer without prior notice. The Mayor said the bus operators and the council should hold talks to find a good place where inter-city bus operators could operate from. He said the council would not ask any inter-city transporter to vacate the Mulungushi Bus Station or any other place before finding an alternative place.

§ Describe static electricity § Demonstrate the existance of static charges § Describe the properties § Explain how to detect electric charges Static electricity is a form of electricity that do not involve the movement of charges. Therefore, static electricity is electricity at rest in form of charge.

The law of electrostatics The law of electrostatics states that like charges repel and unlike charges atrract. The above law entails that when two bodies of the same charge are brought close to each, they will repel. Similary, when two bodies with different charges are brought close to each other, they will attract each other. See the figures below.

Further, a truck carrying flammable liquids like petrol have some pieces of chain touching the surface of the road as it is moving, this is done to discharge it. These experiences among others demonstrate the existance of static electricity. There are two types of charges namely positive charges and negative charges. The concept of charges can understood by looking at the structure of an atom. An atom is made up of three particles namely protons, electrons and neutrons. Protons are positively charged, electrons are negatively charged and neutrons have no charge. Protons and neutrons are found in the central part of an atom called nucleus and electrons are found in the shells around the nucleus. See the figure below.

See the figure below.

Generally, a body is said to be negatively charged if it has an excess or surplus of electrons. On the other hand, a body is said to be positively charged if it has a shortage of electrons. Note that the nature of the charge on the rubbed body depends on the nature of the object rubbing it. Physicists have classified substances in a certain order so that it is easy to determine the charge on each of the two rubbed substances. These substances are:

In a neutral atom, the number of electrons and proton is the same. If an atom loses some electrons, it becomes positively charged because protons have become more than electrons. Similarly, if an atom gains some electrons,it becomes negatively charged because the number of electrons have become more than the number of protons. This

NYIMBA’S EAGERNESS TO DEVELOP ...stands a greater chance of becoming a huge business town

N

YIMBA is of the towns looking to grow in Zambia. Located 340 km from Lusaka, Nyimba shares boundaries with Petauke in the east, Feira in the south, Mpika and Serenje in the north and also shares an international boundary with Mozambique. With this central location, Nyimba stands a greater chance of becoming a huge business town. Additionally, owing to its vastness and presence of wild animals, Nyimba has that potential to add to Zambia’s tourism economic basket. This however, may only be possible if the town is fully opened up through massive development ranging from a good road network and infrastructure to provision of various social amenities. Nyimba Constituency Member of Parliament Olipa Phiri Mwansa is fully aware of this and is keen to develop the area. Motivated by the people’s eagerness to see development, Ms. Phiri, who is also Minister in the Office of the Vice President has drawn up plans to develop her constituency. She believes the different communities from 15 wards within her constituency are fully committed to participate in various programmes to see a developed Nyimba. The Zambia Women Parliamentary Caucus (ZWPC) working with Hivos, conducted a tour of the constituency in an effort to learn about a number of developmental projects that Hon. Phiri has embarked on. From the 15 wards in the district, the tour showed that Ms Phiri has insisted on a balanced delivery of projects which she does with the councillors. “My style of delivering development to my constituency is mainly dependent on working closely with the communities in different wards. We plan and prioritise our development according to the needs as you know Nyimba is a vast rural constituency,” said Ms Phiri in an interview after the tour of her constituency. With the aim of making sure her development agenda is spread across her vast constituency, Ms Phiri has since emphasised on projects in Education, Health, Infrastructure, Roads, Empowerment and Agriculture. As evidently seen from the tour, one project she embarked on in the early days of her election victory in 2016 was infrastructure development through the construction of bridges. This she saw as an immediate need especially that it was part of her campaign promises and one of the demands from the electorate. The people called for the construction of bridges as most areas were constantly flooded and cut off from Nyimba town. Against this background

she lobbied for the construction of Kapakasa, Mpundwe and Mawanda-Ndake bridges through capital grants. “Initially there was a small bridge that was dangerous and killed a lot of people,” remarked a resident of Nyimba in appreciating the construction of Kapakasa Bridge which connects Ngozi and Vizimumba wards via a road leading to the main market in Nyimba. “It has helped a number of farmers, teachers and students. People are very happy because of this bridge,” he said. Infrastructure development in Nyimba has also been seen

BOREHOLES “Sixteen boreholes were put in Chiweza ward which was one of the most affected. Elsewhere, these boreholes are placed in communities. Before they were put, people were using the same water sources as animals. The water problem here is now settled.” through the improvement and construction of roads. Ms Phiri contends that the good road network boosts the economy. For this reason, she lobbied for the improvement of Chipembi-Utotwe Road where culverts and drainage were put under the Constituency Development Funds (CDF). This important road, which was done side by side with the grading of township roads like Sichebende, has improved the economic lifestyle of the residents. “Before this road was done, we used to ferry our goods using animal transport. It used to take us lots of hours to get to the main market. We thank the MP

that now we can get to the market and deliver our farm goods in good time,” Ms Judith Tembo, a local resident said. More township roads are now being worked on and also two big bridges along Utotwe Road have been constructed. She has also lobbied for four other roads under World Bank and these are Nyimba to Luembe, Kampala to Mtilizi, Nyimba via Mwape Chiefdom to Petauke and Hofmayer road. Added to the improvement of roads is the construction of the first-ever council library in the district. This, Ms Phiri says, came about in her quest to improve literacy levels in the area. She said it was also a need from the community to have a library which would also keep young people busy and away from mischief. The library was constructed under CDF. Education is another priority issue on her developmental plan. Here, she has emphasised on the construction of schools and classroom blocks to enhance enrolments. Knowing that Nyimba is faced with the problem of child marriages, Ms Phiri has insisted on lobbying for more schools. Through this, the constituency has seen the construction of Chinambi Day Secondary School in Chinambi ward, renovation of Mchimadzi and Kalambakuwa basic schools, as well as the construction of Nyatubanda Community School using CDF. Using her personal resources, she has also supported education through donations. Because of this, Mayawa Primary School was rehabilitated and she also donated 20 iron sheets to see the completion of staff houses at the school. She extended this to Chinsimbwe where 40 iron sheets were donated for the completion of a classroom block. She also donated a block making machine

and supported the labour for the moulding of blocks for the construction of Mwase Community School. This school was constructed with support from the World Bank which she lobbied for. In the health sector, the commitment to offer development by Ms Phiri is as equally

pectant mothers. With the increased population in Nyimba, rural health centres were perpetually congested with no shelters for mothers. “We used to have a lot of deaths during child delivery. People were delivering from their homes. But we are happy for this shelter in Kacholola. It has created privacy and mothers can deliver in a safe manner,” said Ms Judith Tembo, a beneficiary. One major project Ms Phiri is happy about and looking forward to completion in the health sector is the completion of Phase Two construction of a general hospital. This project under a grant will be a huge boost to the sector as it will serve a population of close to 80, 000 people. In the area of water and sanitation, Ms Phiri has always responded to the cries of the constituents in most wards which lack water. “For a long time there has been a cry for water. This prompted her to find ways to provide water. In this way, 30 boreholes were sank in the district under a project from Ku-

Education has been one of the key areas of development in Nyimba

balanced as is the case in the education sector. Here, she has lobbied for the construction of Mkopeka and Luangazi health centres through capital grants. She also initiated the rehabilitation of the kitchen at the local main hospital using CDF. Interesting about the projects in health, was the construction of mothers’ shelters in Mkopeka, Nyimba, Chinambi and Kacholola. Here, Ms Phiri realised the need to provide dignity to ex-

wait which shelobbied for,” said an official of the Resident Development Committee in Chiweza Ward. “Sixteen boreholes were put in Chiweza ward which was one of the most affected. Elsewhere, these boreholes are placed in communities. Before they were put, people were using the same water sources as animals. The water problem here is now settled.” Another resident from Silupisa Village expressed happiness at her work, saying, “We used to drink from the rivers together with the animals. We are happy that the MP helped us.” B e i n g a cabinet m i n i s t e r, Ms Phiri uses her initiative to lobby for more support to her constituency from Nyimba Constituency Member of the PresParliament Olipa Phiri Mwansa idential

Initiative Funds. To this regard, she has boosted her empowerment programme in Nyimba. Through the Presidential Initiative Funds, about 20 to 30 women and youth associations have been engaged in income-generating projects in poultry. Others have been provided with incubators and oil spellers to enhance their projects.

2016

As evidently seen from the tour, one project she embarked on in the early days of her election victory in 2016 was infrastructure development through the construction of bridges. Knowing that a number of women are engaged into trade, Ms Phiri also insisted on the renovation of a market shelter in Nyimba to accelerate empowerment. Ms Getrude Mumba, a marketeer, says the community is happy for the renovation and construction of the Nyimba market which was built under CDF. Another market was also constructed in Katente while another is coming up in Ndake. These new shelters have given an economic boost to the residents especially that the MP also empowers some women with funds for their businesses. Development in Nyimba has also been seen progressing steadily due to the enhancement of communication. Seeing that communication is key to any development, Ms Phiri lobbied for the provision of six communication towers from the mobile network providers across the country. One example is Vizimumba Ward Tower which has improved communication in Nyimba’s largest ward. There is also a project of electrification of Luembe Chiefdom which is on course added to communication. “People are now using phones and business has become easy. Theft has also been reduced due to the improvement in communication,” said a resident in Vizimumba ward in praising the MP. With all the outlined projects, Ms Phiri is confident Nyimba will be one of the fastest growing towns to attract a number of economic activities. What motivates her the most is the people’s eagerness to work with her and develop the constituency. “I will continue lobbying for the people of Nyimba. I am very happy with their support and commitment and I know, together we shall develop Nyimba,” said Ms Phiri.

BRIEFS Uganda’s electoral body warns of presidential campaigns cancellationa

KAMPALA - Uganda’s Electoral Commission has warned that it may cancel the presidential campaigns if there is continued violation of guidelines. The commission gave this warning in a statement issued here late on Thursday. Justice Simon Byabakama, chairperson of the Electoral Commission, said in the statement that candidates should desist from holding rallies in a manner that violates campaign guidelines. – XINHUA.

Tanzania sued for pregnant schoolgirls ban DAR ES SALAAM - Women’s rights group, Equality Now, has filed a case against the Tanzanian government at the Africa Court on Human and People’s Rights over its ban on pregnant girls from attending school. The organisation, in a statement, said that going to court was the last resort after years of lobbying the government to overturn the ban. A law passed in 2002 allows for the expulsion of pregnant schoolgirls. – BBC.

…Moz denies fears of assets seizure over debt

“There are no indications of this,” he said. He said that Mozambique’s debt to China had so far respected parameters agreed between the two countries. Maleiane put Mozambique’s total debt to China at US$2 billion. The vast majority of the debt - about $1.97bn - is owed

to the Chinese Exim Bank, which financed major infrastructure projects, including the Maputo Ring Road and the suspension bridge over the Bay of Maputo. The minister said the projects would eventually pay for themselves through toll gates. But opposition MP, Venancio Mondlane,

The minister did not respond to a question on whether any infrastructure project financed by China had ever made a profit. – BBC.

Somalia sacks Foreign Minister over Tigray MOGADISHU - Somali Prime Minister, Mohamed Hussein Roble, has sacked Foreign Affairs Minister, Ahmed Isse Awad, hours after a row over the country’s position on the conflict in Ethiopia’s Tigray region. “In a decree issued by the office of the Somali Prime Minister, Mohamed Abdirizak Mohamud Abubakar has been appointed minister of Foreign Affairs to replace the former holder of the position,” the website of

the state radio said. The sacked minister was named as an ambassador, the report added, but he tweeted that he was “not currently ready for any position as an ambassador or any other.” The verified Twitter account of the office of the Prime Minister, @SomaliPM, announced the appointment but did not explain why Awad was sacked. On Thursday, Awad posted a tweet on his account denying that Somalia had issued

Obama joked that Trump might have to get dragged out of the White House by Navy SEALs WASHINGTON - Former President Barack Obama joked that President Donald Trump could be removed from the White House by Navy SEALs if he refuses to leave after Inauguration Day.

Are there little cubby holes or anything that you know about?" Obama laughed along and said: "Well, I think we can always send the Navy SEALs in to dig him out." The moment was a response to Trump's ongoing refusal to concede the election after losing to Presidentelect Joe Biden. He has instead spread baseless claims of voter fraud and launched legal challenges in battleground states. The Trump campaign has already lost most of these lawsuits. Trump is due to remain as president until Inauguration Day on January 20. He continues to argue that he won the election, and has not publicly discussed how far he might go to stay in the White House. A president

Government experts and former officials previously told Insider that doing so could fall to the Secret Service if Trump refused to leave. A representative for Biden also previously referenced removing Trump from the White House. The representative said that the US government is "perfectly capable of escorting trespassers out of the White House" in response to early suggestions that Trump would not succeed. Biden has also been denied access to transition materials, including funding and access to intelligence briefings to government agencies. Speaking on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," Obama said: "I wish the transition was going better." "We lose time during these crises." – BUSINESS INSIDER, US.

LILONGWE - Fugitive Malawian pastor, Shepherd Bushiri, has said he doesn’t mind losing his palatial home in South Africa after a judge ordered it to be seized. “My right to life is more important than any asset in this world,” the self-declared prophet said in a Facebook post after a magistrate had ordered Bushiri and his wife, Mary, to hand over the title deed of the South African property when they were granted bail on charges of money laundering and fraud. – BBC.

Mali activists, army feud over interim parliament BAMAKO - A new political storm is forming in Mali as political parties and activists are locked in a standoff with the military over the composition of the so-called National Transitional Council. The National Transitional Council is meant to serve as the country’s interim parliament. According to a government decree published on November 10, the military was allocated the lion’s share of the council’s seats, taking 22 out of 121.

NAPSA will bounce back, says Fathi By MUKWIMA CHILALA

CONFEDERATION Cupbound NAPSA Stars coach Mohamed Fathi is optimistic that his side will bounce back to winning ways despite its current winless streak. Fathi is however concerned with his side’s bluntness on goal and attributes it to the high number of injured players.

Saturday 21 November, 2020 Fathi noted that some of his dependable strikers such as Tapson Kaseba are still down with knocks while striker Laudt Mavugo has just returned from injury. The NAPSA Stars coach notes that the result does not reflect the performance of the team as most of the teams that are playing continental are focused on their CAF engagements. F a t h i however said that his focus will now be on the next game against Ngazi of Comoros and is looking on picking maximum results from that tie. “Most of the teams that are going to play continental are focusing on the international matches a little bit, if you look at Nkana they lost also, Forest also. So what we need to do is maintain our focus and our next game is in Comoros away and there is not much pressure on them so we need to win,” Fathi said. Tapson is not around, Bonwell got injured, we tried to come with Ladvt but he is coming from sickness so the striking force is a concern for us and it has affected us a little bit. I can’t deny that but we will manage our game. NAPSA have failed to win their last three games and on Wednesday lost 2-0 away to Buildcon in their brought forward week 3 fixture. The pensioners next week leave for Comoros for their debut continental engagement in a first leg fixture against Ngazi.

PLF Cup takes off By MICHAEL MIYOBA

THE maiden Premier Futsal League (PFL) Cup swings into action today when PFL champions Automotive FC take on Division One representative Christian Academy in a Group A fixture at Automotive Futsal Arena. Lilanda Bullets will play Kafue Saints in another Group A fixture and Automotive FC coach Andrea Christoforetti who is unbeaten in the PFL as the team dominate the 10team PFL table with 27-points, is anticipating stiff competition. Despite Automotive being the favourites, Christoforetti believes K-Line FC and DS Isoka who have been placed in group B and C respectively will give Automotive tough competition. The expatriate Italian Futsal trainer believes newcomers such as Zanaco and Pioneer Avengers who compete in Division One would also put up a spirited fight to win the maiden PFL Cup. “The PFL Cup is similar to the FA Cup in England where teams from the lower division are able to feel what it means to play with teams in the Premier League. “We will have teams com-

peting for two trophies instead of one. Isoka and K-Line are doing great work this season and the Bullets can always compete,” Christoforetti said. “We are also curious to see how the newcomers such as Zanaco and Pioneer Avengers will react. It will be a good chance to understand the level of completion of the teams,” he said. Group B action will see Kabwe K-Line taking on Veterans FC as Pioneer Avengers will lock horns with Livingstone Pirates. In Group C, DS Isoka and Bill FC will face off with DS Academy set to take on Chipata Boys. Kitwe Bullets and Monze George FC will compete in group D alongside Division one representatives, Efford Chabala, Tamanga and Zanaco who will begin their Cup campaign with a tie against Monze George while Kitwe Bullets will play Efford Chabala FC on match day one. The four teams which will not be in action on match day one include CSS Petauke, Tamanga, Siavonga Beetles and BS Stars as they will be on bye. The first two teams from each group will qualifying for the quarterfinals.

PEP GUARDIOLA WANTS MESSI TO END CAREER AT BARCELONA

M

ANCHESTER City manager Pep Guardiola says he wants Lionel Messi to finish his career at Barcelona. Guardiola signed a two-year contract extension with City on Thursday and was immediately linked with his ex-player, who came close to moving last summer. Messi's contract ends next summer and he could sign pre-contract terms with any club outside Spain from January 1. Guardiola said: "Messi is a Barcelona player. I said it a thousand times. As a fan, I want Leo to finish there." Argentine playmaker Messi had looked set to join City after putting in a transfer request in August, only for Barcelona's then-president Josep Maria Bartomeu to block the transfer. Bartomeu then resigned in October but Messi's future remains uncertain. "His contract finishes this year (season) and I don't know what will happen in his mind," Guardiola said. Paris St-Germain have also been linked with the 33-yearold, although every candidate Barcelona presidential election - to be held in January - has said it is a priority for them to persuade Messi to stay at the Nou Camp. "I have huge gratitude for Barcelona and what they have done for me," said Guardiola, who worked with Messi when managing Barcelona between 2008 and 2012. – BBC.

Mourinho says Southgate should name managers who pressurise players TOTTENHAM Hotspur's Jose Mourinho says England boss Gareth Southgate should name managers who pressurise players to withdraw from international duty. Southgate said players were under "huge pressure" from clubs and there was a "power game" with their managers. Mourinho also says "we all know" Raheem Sterling of Manchester City will face Spurs despite his England withdrawal. "I would like him to say who," said Mourinho. "Who are the coaches that put pressure on the players not to go?" Mourinho also responded to Southgate saying he of-

The fixture against ZANACO presents under-fire Nkana coach Manfred Chabinga, who was attacked by a fan during the mid-week fixture in Lusaka, another tough test and the best response will be an outright win. However it will be revenge time for Chris Kaunda’s bankers who were stunned 3-0 by Nkana the last time the two teams met in July. Zanaco have started the season with four points from a possible nine, but have not played for two weeks since a

ten has phone calls or shares messages with managers to placate them at a time when a congested club and international fixture calendar is meaning a greater workload for players. "Gareth Southgate, I read, said he feels the need to call club managers to try to cool down emotions and try to control the difficult situations for him," added the Portuguese, whose side face Manchester City today. "I would like him to say which are the coaches that he calls and he speaks on the phone with. "Apart from that he has the right to call up the play-

ers he wants. He wants to win matches, especially after a defeat, even being a dead rubber, I sympathise with that. "When Eric Dier left the national team injured in the previous month he didn't play two matches for Tottenham. He needed a couple of weeks to recover and Raheem will play today. "These are the little details that Gareth should explain to us all but apart from that I totally support him in the fact a national team is to be respected and play the players he wants to play." Sterling was ruled out of England's Nations League

match against Iceland because of a calf injury, after also missing the previous game against Belgium. Dier played for England in their previous game against Belgium on October 11, missed the game against Denmark three days later then was absent for Spurs' games against West Ham and LASK before returning to action at Burnley on October 26. Earlier in the season, after Spurs had played eight games in three weeks, Mourinho said he hoped Southgate "would respect the players" but he would not "call, ask or beg." – BBC.

Redemption time at nkana?

1-1 home draw with Nkwazi. Meanwhile, Ndola giants Zesco United welcome Kabwe Warriors today in another intriguing fixture slated for Levy Mwanawasa Stadium, the same venue which will host promoted sides Indeni and Prison Leopards who will clash in a lunchtime kickoff. Zesco who are on four points following one win, one draw and one loss from the first three games will target a win which will propel them to seven points. However for that to happen

Numba Mumamba’s boys who have only scored two goals in the first three games will have to be clinical upfront. “There is a need to have composure in front of goal before you shoot. We have invested a lot of time working on our finishing so that we are ready for the next game against Kabwe Warriors,” Numba said after the 1-0 win to Lumwana. In other Super Division fixtures, rejuvenated Green Buffa-

loes will take on Nkwazi FC in another exciting Lusaka derby at Edwin Imboela Stadium while Lusaka Dynamos and Lumwana Radiants will face off at Sunset Stadium. Red Arrows will seek to protect their unbeaten start to the season when they host Power Dynamos, while Green Eagles will hope to bounce back from a loss to Leopards when they entertain winless Kitwe United at Independence Stadium in Choma.

Zambia U-17 down hapless Comoros ...as COSAFA suspend four teams for age cheating By SPORTS REPORTER

ZAMBIA began the 2020 COSAFA Men's Under-17 Championship campaign with a 2-0 win over Comoros Islands. First and second half goals from Charles Majapa and Joseph Sabobo Banda handed the Young Copper Bullets the three points at Gelvandale Stadium in South Africa. Meanwhile, the team’s mission to defend the COSAFA Men's Under-17 championship will continue after COSAFA confirmed that all the 20 players have passed the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) tests. The tests, which were conducted by the Confederation of African Football (CAF), were aimed at checking the eligibility of players for the junior burgchampionship. star man Enock Mwepu Technical Direcg UEFAFAZ champions league Lyson Zulu, who triantor giants.

is leading the delegation in Port Elizabeth told the FAZ Media team that with the latest development, all Group A and B matches have been quashed with a new fixture schedule released for round-robin matches. Zulu said according to article 8 of the 2020 COSAFA Men's Under-17 Championship rules and regulations, teams that fail the tests are sanctioned based on the findings. "I think that this goes to all the work that has been done by the different coaches that we have used to select these players from the different leagues that we run in the country," Zulu said.

The new fixtures will see George Chilufya's side take on Angola tomorrow before playing Malawi two days later. Zambia will wrap-up their round-robin fixture against the hosts on November 26.

Neymar back for PSG ahead of Champions League resumption NEYMAR is set to return from injury for Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1 with a view to facing RB Leipzig in a crucial Champions League match next week, the club said. The Brazilian, who has been sidelined since injuring a thigh muscle against Turkish club Basaksehir in the Champions League on October 28, came through a training session with the

PSG squad without any problems on Thursday. Coach Thomas Tuchel said on Thursday that Neymar could play "a few minutes" against Monaco. The injury ruled him out of Brazil's World Cup qualifiers during the international break. PSG, last season's beaten finalists, need to beat Leipzig at home on Tuesday to remain in contention to qualify for the knockout stage. Kylian Mbappe is also back in

the PSG squad for the visit to the principality despite being troubled by injuries since the start to the season. Marco Verratti and Mauro Icardi are still not ready to return from injury but PSG coach Thomas Tuchel said he was hopeful they would be available for selection against Leipzig. Reigning champions PSG are top of Ligue 1 despite losing two games during a rocky start to the campaign. – SUPERSPORT.
