Immigrations dept, FSP fail to account for billions of Kwacha

Share

The Auditor General’s report has revealed that Over K2.4 billion collected from five immigration stations in 2007 has gone missing.

It said K1.8 billion collected from Ndola station has not been accounted for.

Other monies collected from Immigrations Headquarters, Kasumbalesa, Chingola and Lusaka International Airport offices have also not been accounted for.

It further indicates that 57 visa books, nine general receipt books and two visiting permit books have disappeared and could not be availed for audits for the year 2007.

The missing documents are for Lusaka immigrations headquarters, Lusaka International Airport, Kasumbalesa and Victoria Falls offices.

The report has also highlighted serious irregularities in the management of money collected at various diplomatic missions abroad.

The Auditor General’s Report has also revealed glaring irregularities in the management of the government sponsored Fertiliser Support Programme (FSP).

The report says it has not been possible to verify collected farmers cash deposits of over K86.7 billion.

It also indicates that the Ministry of Agriculture did not maintain a debtors ledger for the FSP.

And the Ministry did not reconcile bank accounts for the Fertilizer Support Programme during the 2006 – 2007 farming season.

The report also shows that over One thousand five hundred bags of fertiliser have not been accounted for in Chipata.

It further reveals that over K90 million collected from farmers in Kapiri Mposhi and Chipata has not been accounted for.

President Rupiah Banda Tuesday told journalists that government may consider reviewing the FSP for the coming farming season.

This follows growing calls to review the FSP to enable the targeted vulnerable farmers benefit from the subsidised agro inputs.

  1. It is not enough to say, “not accounted for” action must be taken against responsible officers. It is no wonder we are where we are. Irregularities in a lot of areas.

  2. The report also shows that over One thousand five hundred bags of fertiliser have not been accounted for in Chipata.

    Come on people that is a no brainer. Those are the bags RB used to solicit for votes. When is the ACC and Task Force moving in on him for misuse of public resources?

  3. The report says it has not been possible to verify collected farmers cash deposits of over K86.7 billion.

    This probably explains the missing maize from the bumper harvest.

  4. And I have to pay for a new passport what a country is some one going to do something about it???? nowing Zed am sure this is the begining of the end of the story money is missing kwasila:((:o:o:o

  5. Its strange that money, receipt books, fertilizer can just voluntarily disappear or maybe its disappearance by sublimation. Where is responsibility accounting?

  6. George chilumanda should be one of the culprit. Spending alot of money throwing parties when he was in Mozambique. Thats why the late Presido called him back.

  7. For all this….our so called leaders will do nothing! Zambia needs redemption….there is a demon in the country.

  8. #18 Though we can blame chiluba, I think we need perspective here. This man was lost under the watchful eye of LPM whose fight for corruption was well advanced at this stage ..and also under the supposedly best financial minister we have ever had. Something seriously wrong here.

  9. Jamaco, where have you been? U see how much money is dissapearing into private accounts in Zambia? And yet everyone is quick to cast a stone at FTJ, when every gov’t institute is guilty of fraud!

  10. Immigration dept. Ba president pliz sort out these characters. And stop printing new passport, until those thieves are sorted out

  11. THE GOV/ACC SHOULD MOVE IN VERY QUICKLY AND AREST THE PEOPLE INVOLVED.THIS IS JUST TOO MUCH TO BE LEFT UNATTENDED TO.

  12. “The Auditor General’s Report has also revealed glaring irregularities in the management of the government sponsored Fertiliser Support Programme (FSP).”

    When UPND president Hakainde Hichilema, HH, mentioned that the Auditor General’s report indicates that there is money that is missing and money is available to pay GRZ Civil Servants a minimum of 3.5 million Zambian Kwacha per month in campaign promises, many people laugh at him and say where is he going to get the money from.

    Now that LT has provided this data on here, what to HH critics have to write about this and his campaign promises that Zambia has enough money to do all projects in the UPND manifesto.

  13. “It further indicates that 57 visa books, nine general receipt books and two visiting permit books have disappeared and could not be availed for audits for the year 2007.”

    NOW BIN LADEN AND FRIENDS HAVE VISA FOR ZAMBIA!!! IMWE MWANYA NOMBA!! IYEEEEEEEEE:o:o:o:o:o:o:o

  14. WHY AM NOT SUPRISED. ITS A PITY SUCH HUGE AMOUNTS OF MONEY GO MISSING WILLY NILLY AND PEOPLE ARE DYING IN HOSPITALS DUE TO LACK OF DRUGS. WHO IS TO BLAME? OURSELVES BECAUSE WE VOTE BLINDLY

  15. “The report has also highlighted serious irregularities in the management of money collected at various diplomatic missions abroad.”

    NINE CHALE IWE!! EVEN MISSIONS ABROAD ARE EATING KANONO? AWE NOMBA KUNYAFYE IWE!!!

    :o:o:o:o:o:o

  16. #28 BROTHER YOU ARE VERY CORRECT.THEY DONT LISTEN DO THEY.NEXT TIME PIPO VOTE WISELY BECAUSE NOW ITS TOO LATE.RB AND HIS PIPO ARE GOING SO ( ifula pakuya ilonaula ifisabo)

  17. “The report also shows that over One thousand five hundred bags of fertiliser have not been accounted for in Chipata.”

    AND YOU WERE ACCUSING CONGO OF STEALING MEALIE MEAL LAST WEEK?

    AWE NOMBA KU ZED KWASHUPA!!! :o:o:o:o:o

  18. #33. QUEEN, you are spot on gal! we should blame ourselves for keeping to vote blindly….garbage in, garbage out! Come 2011, zambians will vote for more garbage and they will get garbage out…Do we then get used to this crap! NO NO NO :o:o:o we need a generation change!

  19. 28 Maestro, so HH ate part of the $12m Chiluba has said was paid to Grant Thronton? $12 million commission on a $37 million sale! Where in the world do you make a 32% commission on a sale? HH should address this as well! Is this what he is going to be doing to the treasury as (never be) President?

  20. seems like no one really bothers to do anything regarding these AG reports! what a shame, yet we wonder why majority of our people live below the poverty line…

  21. # 38. Engine Bbuloko

    YOU ARE RIGHT!! ALL THIS NONSENSE WE DISCUSS PA LT IS ABOUT THE SAME SYSTEM OF BAD GOVERNMENT THAT AFRICAN COUNTRIES FAIL TO GET RID OF.

    A GENERATION CHANGE IS ALL THAT WE NEED.

  22. 39.Dark Knight greetings, on “28 Maestro, so HH ate part of the $12m Chiluba has said was paid to Grant Thronton?”
    YES. What else did you expect? Do you work for free in Canada or wherever you are?
    “$12 million commission on a $37 million sale! Where in the world do you make a 32% commission on a sale? HH should address this as well!”
    Take HH to court if you are aggrieved! Whatever the case, you will be told to take Grant Thornton and not HH instead. But give it a try and all the best to you.
    “Is this what he is going to be doing to the treasury as (never be) President?”Your question does not make sense as president HH worked for Grant Thornton which was mandated as RECEIVER of LCM.

  23. THESE OLD POLITICIANS HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE!!!
    THEY ARE EXPERIENCED YES WHEN IT COMES TO THIEVING!!!

  27. Can someone tell me why our beautiful continent is so messed up?! There’s a general lack of will to do things in outright honesty… Thanx for bringing all ths to light, bt we need a feasible system that wil stringently deal wit such culprits.

  29. #42 Maetro,

    Good day, yes I’m in Canada and do not work for free.

    However, there is a clear distinction between working for free and making $12m out of a $37m sale. HH not only worked for Grant but managed it, even convicted Enron execs were employees.

    Just because he is not in the docket doesn’t mean he is clean, we know that LPM targeted politicians he was scared of using the task force (selective prosecution). To me HH has been a shady character – now things are coming to light.

  38. #44 you hit the spot….

    I don’t think they know whether they are left or right wing neutral or what stance they take on politics as long as they live like kings. That’s what Zambia has become it’s like England in the middle ages, a mini monarch where the king was top boss and all the so-called noble men where second to him enjoying the fruits of our labour.No-one is accountable, as long as you are in their circle. None of them even show a sense of intelligence at all just plain bullying.

  41. There is a lot of theft of public resources which does not seem to reduce or is it because of the increased transparency or effectiveness exhibited by the auditor general’s office? In nearly all cases we are being told that the books of accounts (which is hard evidence) are missing. I think the law should be strengthened to make it a chargeable or very serious offense to lose government financial records such as receipt books etc.

    Please let these guys be locked and release the Manager for a minor offense of being in possession of adult material as long as it was not meant for public consumption!!

  42. 53. Dark Knight. Good on:
    “#42 Maetro,

    So, what else? For me, I see no problem with president HH. If you have a problem with him, please go to the courts of law and file a case against HH. I wish you all the best.

  43. 78. Maestro Hhehhehhehhe continued.

    Good enough, there is a lot of time befoe the 2011 elections and I ma happy Mr Chiluba FTJ 9Honourary Doctor, Malawi) is now compaigning for president HH so that characters with no data to accuse president HH can be silenced once and for all.

    This is great news!

    Later, my fellow Citizen when you bring in useful arguments on HH and Grant Thornton. For now there is nothing more from me to write about this $12 million that Grant Thornton was given for its job as RECEIVER of Luanshya copper mines.

    ===
    LT 2008 Award Winner. =; for all Zambians in the past, now in 2009 and in the future.

  44. 80. Maestro Hhehhehhehhe continued.

    In the thread ww w.lusakatimes. com/ ?p=7882, you will find:

    “Dr. Chiluba testified that of the figure $35 million was in the safe custody of Zambia Consolidated Copper Mine (ZCCM) while $12 million went to the receivers Grant Thornton.”

    The Term ‘receivers’ will be explained below!

  45. Matworld……i have and i will take time to communicate…i think you have done well so far…thats good…..i trust your judgement but we will talk more versoon..

  46. 81. Cont’d.

    On Grant Thornton being a RECEIVER of LCM:

    Defintions of RECEIVER or RECEIVERSHIP are given below:

    The state of affairs when a receiver is appointed to recover debts of a company which has failed. In the case of a large company, with subsidiaries, the receiver may seek a buyer for a subsidiary. This often leads to a MBO, an MBI or a trade sale.
    ww w.vantisplc. com/ Vantis/ Services/ CorporateFinance/ JargonBuster .htm

    Is a means of handling the estate of a distressed debtor. Its purpose is to rehabilitate, but if this cannot be accomplished, receivership proceedings will result in liquidation.
    ww w.crfonline.o rg/ orc/ glossary/ r. html

  47. Maestro, with due respect, the majority of Zambians know what a receiver is. They have lived through them since FTJ came to power, both crooked and legit ones! We’ll see which one HH belongs to.

  48. Engine Bhuloko i agree with you.These ladies are so cool,thats why i want to choose one apapene pa blogg.It could be Baby C,Supergal, Lisa,Mirriam, Sarah Jones ba Cutey at bali upwa efyo balanda. Ala Martworld boyi wansekesha pali award winner iyo.Pantu yali leta inchito apa.

  49. #85, Peter…

    That’s why people who support HH never respond srtaight forward to the questions as to where he got so much wealth from at an early age. All they say is that “he is very educated”. The truth will come out one day.

  50. HH got his money from Grant Thornton who privatised the mines during the Chiluba years. A lot of people involved in this exercise made a lot of money at the country’s expense.

  51. ba chewenaine nalyupwa.im a wife and mother.just take it easy mukasanga.dont rush you will crush.the bible says he who finds a wife finds a good thing.but dont do it mulubilo

  52. 86. Dark Knight. On “Maestro, with due respect, the majority of Zambians know what a receiver is. They have lived through them since FTJ came to power, both crooked and legit ones! We’ll see which one HH belongs to”, very well and please do not become a coward in future when things are cleared by changing your username.
    I will be praying that the good Lord God gives us both life to see that end of this Mr Chiluba FTJ case and a would-be president Hakainde Hichilema one if you or someone else will have the guts to take HH to court. I am glad that you have been given the opportunity by Mr Chiluba including the Attoney general who said that Zambian Citizens must help in fighting corruption.

  53. LT pipo greeting to all. Im good just busy changing offices after ka elevation pa nchito. New challenges and new goals for 2009.

GRZ where are the ‘Shaidi’ (CID)to do the work. As for Min Agri…sounds like someone is trying to break a tradition. Histroy has it that a lot of former fimo fimo still owe monies to FRA from Chiluba’s time and cases have died silently even seeing others continue in GRZ. So pathetic.

  67. Zambian agency rakes in profits from issuing new passports

    APA-Lusaka (Zambia) Zambia’s Passport Office has raised 9.2 billion
    Zambian kwacha (US$1.8 million) since it began issuing new passports
    to the public some months ago, a senior official said here Monday.
    The permanent secretary (director general) in the ministry of home
    affairs Susan Sikaneta told journalists in the capital Lusaka that
    the department had raised the funds since it began issuing new
    passport in August 2008.The government has phased out the old passports on grounds that they were not secure enough and prone to forgeries. It has also imposed February end as deadline for travelers to obtain the new travel

  68. contd travel document because the old ones will no longer be valid for travel after this date.The announcement has created confusion, leading to long winding lines at the main Passport Office in Lusaka — forcing the Immigration Department, where the Passport Office is located, to cancel lunch breaks for its staff and to work throughout weekends.The Passport Office also hiked the new fees from the previous K72,000 (14 US dollars) to K320,000 (64 US dollars) for a standard 32-page passport raising a public outcry.The government has, however, refused to reduce the application fee,claiming that genuine travellers would have no problems in paying four times more for the for the new travel

  69. IT HAS NEVER BEEN EASY TO HELP A BRO SO FAR AWAY!! THERE IS A´LOT I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH YOU GUYS BUT THE DISTANCE 😕

  72. contd, Sikaneta said so far 24,700 passports have been issued, of which 240 were for diplomatic passport holders.

    Zambians you can carry out your own analysis, assessment and evaluation on both news articles. God bless Zambia.

  73. Zambia will be better under young people, our fathers and grandfathers have failed the nation due to their greed and selfishness. Some of them even failed to look after their own children. We need a revolution!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  81. If the Govt was serious and introduced centralised electronic payment processing such issues will be reduced. Days of just scribbling on receipts from Soweto maliketi and all the crap are long gone. When shall our leaders ever wake up kanshi? I tired of this …. mweee!

    HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU EXPECT THESE GUYS TO ELECTRONIZE THE PAYMENT SYSTEM!!

    IT IS LIKE ASKING IMBUSHI TO DRIVE A POSCHE!!

    GENERATION CHANGE IS THE KEY!!

  83. Can you believe that such huge amounts of money have really gone missing? Who was/is in charge of Immigration and FSP? Why can’t we make them answerable?
    The person who was/is managing immigration should explain and if the explanation is not satisfactory should be charged with theft/money laundering. Similarly, FSP’s officer in charge should explain. Period. This is theft.

  85. Jamaco. Zambia is capable doing such things. All they need to do, just like all visionary countries do, is set up a model and do some trials on the electronic processing. If the trial is successful, all the govt can do is then roll it out to all towns. Jamaco even ba grade 7 can use computers when they are taught how to use them. Nothing is impossible. How come tili kuno ku chalo kwa bene working for the so called muzungu after obtaining our papers from Zedi? Hire me and I shal teach you better and simple ways of reducing the stealing habits pa Zedi. This s… makes me feel sick especially when I think of the poor kids in streets back home. Wake up GRZ

  86. Daylight robbery pa zed! this is why we will never develop. And i bet there’s not going to be a whole lot of people taking the fall for this

  87. It has now become a chorus year in year out since Mwadya Mweka Daddy came into power, that the odita genelo’s report is just a formality. The culprits are well known, start with the permsecs as they are the controlling officers and its these people who are to go mukalyati. How can you continue even publishing this report when NO action is taken whatsoever. Chankalipa sana anso mwankalifya ngananshi.

  88. i’ve nullified my zambian nationality. where’s this corruption taking this country? pliz those in the diaspora offer me some citizenship. after all, you all went there thru corruption also.

  89. We need to hold the Vice President of 2007 accountable who should inturn hold whoever is the supervisor and so forth. Let’s stop complaining about departments and their heads in Zambia. We need to be holding accountable the highest office holder like for this term it should be the President. He should be supervising the people under him so that they also supervise those under them and so forth. This attitude of pointing the Zambian people to departments or ministries should stop. We as Zambians did not appoint them, we appointed the President to do a good job. February 1st will be the first performance evaluation on this Govt based on the 3 months probation.LT please come up with a topic.

  90. This bane is a lot of money fyaibile, misappriopriated, mis-directed what ever the term. The Problem I have is pa Zed we have heard too much of this thing but no action. Even in LPM’s regime, we heard same old stories. So GRZ tell us what is the next course of action, this should include full return with interest the money pilfered. Full stop.

  91. # 7,Bet you were too quick to comment.This is a 2007 Report and not 2008.When did RB start compaining? You ought to be serious!!!!!!!!!!

  92. At long as nothing is done to stop this we will keep on staying the same thing year after the other. We need to know where the money has gone….if not then you might as well stop charging duty. Whats the point the money collected is not used for national development. This why HH was saying that there is money in ZED except its being miss used by the top ones. How can money go missing does it have legs???

  93. Fellow Zedians It appears the AG report is just an Academic exercise.

    It is time for our govt to sort out those involved in stealing public funds.

  94. What next? These entry points have become “Tu Ntemba”! We demand action against the heads of these centers. I have heard people say something like” Isabi nga lyabola, ……… .

  95. Its like animal farm. With such glaring irregularities as revealed by AG at Immigration Dept. the person who was Chief Immigration Officer even gets rewarded with a PS position. What do you expect her performance at the highest level of a ministry. Just watch expect more kafwafwa. Yah some people are lucky.
    As for FSP there has always been lack of accountability, there is a lot dealings from point A to pont Z.Its implementation has many many l/holes. Ma guys just get and fill their pockets. That is mana from heaven

  96. The next we would want to hear is that the ACC and Police have moved in to correct this nosense.These are public funds which can be channelled for real development.

  97. “President Rupiah Banda Tuesday told journalists that government may consider reviewing the FSP for the coming farming season.”

    SHREK, its your presidency that must be reviewed with immediate effect!!!

  98. 39.Dark Knight greetings, on “28 Maestro, so HH ate part of the $12m Chiluba has said was paid to Grant Thronton?”
    YES. What else did you expect? Do you work for free in Canada or wherever you are?

    ##MANY TIMES HH HAVE BEEN TOLD TO ACCOUNT FOR HIS BILLIONS he has accumulated in a short period of time, he has failed. We know that he was part of the axis of corruption. Wait time is coming when all shall give account. Not just chiluba alone going to cry. many will cry like chiluba is crying. people watch the pace of these thieves. FSP was used to steal the money during campaigns and nyama soya is pretending. Ok guys you will see.

  99. If Chiluba and Chungu’s cases do not yield tangible results, then cases of this nature will become the order of the day. Judges, get it right now for tomorrow or else Chiluba would have succeeded in turning Zambia into Zaire – his place of origin, which in my view would be as good as Zaire annexing Zambia. That was Chiluba’s main motivation, if a Malawian KK can rule Zambia, then he too as a Kasai from the Ituri forest could and he did. His next project was to change Zambia into Zaire, which unfortunately failed but nearly succeeded – Thanks to Christon Tembo, Mazoka and the many brave Zambians.

  100. THE REPORT SOUNDS LIKE THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRACTION.

    THE OFFICERS IN MOST OF THESE DEPT ARE VERY DANGROUS OR TOXIC.
    LET THEM ACCOUNT FOR GOVT PROPERTY AND TAKE THEM TO JAIL

  101. Dont forget that during election time, these people buy unga for all the kaponya’s and as you already know that a poor hungry society is an easily corruptible society, these leaders take advantage of the poor uneducated Zambins to vote for them, promising a lot of things,including the unknown. Please God help us to get rid of these people who look like they are all related to ROBERT MUGABE. They’re shamelessly raping our nation while we watch. Zambia is becoming more and more poor by the day, their libido for money and corruption is just unbearable. Oouch! What will our children do? Ooh, God please help us.
