Patriotic Front (PF) Youth Chairperson, Chishimba Kambwili, says government will not use public resources on party programs.
Mr Kambwili said his government will always strive to separate the party from government programs.
Speaking when he addressed PF youths in Livingstone today, Mr Kambwili said using government money on party programs is tantamount to theft which he said his party will not do.
Mr Kambwili, who is also Youth and Sports Minister, urged the Patriotic Front youths to earn clean money and not to receive money from government coffers.
The Minister advised the youths to organize fundraising ventures so that the party can have money to implement its programs.
Mr Kambwili also cautioned youths against aligning themselves with people and companies that have questionable characters.
He said the PF government will not hesitate to prosecute any of its members involved in corrupt practices.
Commenting on Youth Development Fund, the minister said the Patriotic Front youths have equal chances of accessing funds like others.
He said government is trying to avoid a situation where only youths from the ruling party access the funds.
The minister said his government has constituted an Inter-Ministerial committee which is looking at new terms and conditions of disbursing youth development funds in order to avoid reoccurrences on non-payment of grants.
Mr Kambwili disclosed that over the five years the MMD implemented the empowerment program, only K149 million was recovered because it was given to cadres.
He said the disbursement, once started, will be transparent and fair to all youths who qualify.
And speaking earlier Livingstone district youth secretary, Lee Sakunda, complained of lack of funding to the party, especially from the youth wing at the district level.
Mr Sakunda noted that youths in the district have recruited a lot of members to join the Patriotic Front.
ZANIS
UNIP used our money to run the party, MMD did the same. Just get the money and use it wisely you have the blessing of a tax payer here. We even had a President that moved with Presidential slash fund in his pocket.
ask him the jobs are imwe bafikhala,you start receiving lecturers instead of answers to the promises.changamukeni
Sometimes these CNPs talk only to hear their voices.
Mr. Small-hoe. Where is the money “Summer” (the Pathetic Failure’s SG) is using gallivanting (like in Ghana at funeral representing who only God knows) coming from? What of the money you will use to send your Youths to Sudan for “Skills training” going to come from? The fuel you guys used when going on campaign in the past bye elections? etc etc.
Stop fooling us. we are kids.
Truely kids or meant something else, elaborate
Kabimba has been flying around in a zaf chopper. That Mr ugly is misuse of govt money on pama fi activities.
#3 Chief Zambian CNP did you deliberately call your self a kid or you are really under five. When is HH coming up with another disrecpecful name for the Head of State?
ChiKabwili we are not fools to continue stomaching your stupid lies. Few months when you and Serpent Cobra Ukwa Sata CNP toook over government, we saw lots of chitenge materials in a bye election in Chongwe. Were did the money come from when you could not afford when in opposition? The bye election in Livingstone recently, you sent almost the entire government ministers on whose account? Me of course and you want to cheat me that you are not using my tax for your party function, ***** ChiKambwili and Serpent Cobra Ukwa Sata. Muli amafi yabuteko, useless government baka ponya imwe.
uubomba mwibala bane alya ifyamwibala. just make sure you use the funds wisely. All is yours that is why you laboured to win the elections. Kambwili dont panic just take your time. we are behind you and in full support. dont worry about noise makers they are simply empty tins. Viva Michael Sata Chilufya, the man of action. the country is destined for better things.
The battle to appeal to the cadres is on btn GBM saka ya mealile, Sakeni the id.iot, Kambwili the hippo and one statement to come from one summer red lip kamimbya. Am beginning to wonder the state of affairs at nkwazi house. But on this one Kambwili is right not the GBM and Sakeni farts.
WHY ALL THESE DENIALS??? 1st, you had nothing to do with HH’s arrest, Nor searching of UPND offices, now you won’t use our money, BUT YOU ARE BUSY ENTERTAINING CHIKOPO who YOU CAN’T DENY IS ON GOVT DUTIES & THUS YOU ARE SQUANDERING OUR MONEY IN BROAD DAYLIGHT!!!
By the way, is chikopo really a man or “he” has had some sex- change????? It would make sense, ka girlo in subterfuge!!!!
Advice to the UPND, people from Luapula, Northern, Copperbelt and Lusaka will never vote for UPND and HH because of the stance UPND has taken. Please do not just insult but think. If you say Ukwa, Kaponya, CNP, Kolwe do you know how many voters you are insulting? If you say educated people do you know how many people you are offending. Unfortunately democracy is majority rule and UPND will learn yet again not to insult voters in 2016. Ask Dora what happened to her in Ndola.
I think Chishimba Kambwili, despite his other short comings, has a thinking head on his shoulders. He has been quiet consistent on some good governance issues which I find very rare in this PF government. Yu have my support Kambwili. Hope I was a voter in Luanshya.
