Ministry of Home Affairs has 3 deputy ministers -YALI appeals for a reduced cabinet

1. Really ? I wonder how they delegate duties to each other.Anyway i have to hear the other side of the story from the government.Maybe it is a false and uninformed alarm after all.

   • @zebige… hahahah, go ahead and hear the other side of the story. The PF you know or knew is not what it is anymore. Sata and crew change everyday, you my boy are history. you are still living in the `´90days“ era.

   • Don’t be suprised, I have been telling you that you voted for a wrong one, he has no plan.
     Even though some wishes are crazy, I wish Hugo Chavez was president of Zambia, and not Sata as a president of Venezuela. Yayaya Ba Sata ku Venezuela kuti batemwa, lets see if he will go for funeral.

   • is it me or a lot of UPND cadres have come to LT, the person who was giving the ZWD news was fired,its important to be professional in your reporting like Ba LT not bush reporting.

   • Zambia the real Africa for sure…

2. This is insanity!

   • Not only Insanity, It is Craziness?? Instead of being productive, the 3 deputies will be fighting each other? As to who is the Actual Deputy. How do you segregate roles & responsibilities? I am yet to understand how these ministries work.

   • This is kind of things I just forbid myself to comment on. I know ka Chella is waiting to print my comments to take to Sata as usual, but today no no I won’t, because no one can handle it.

   • The PRINCE it’s not insanity nor craziness. The opposite is true, let me help with some explanation. Let me pick ministry of Agriculture to start with.
     One D/minister is for Livestock,one for cooperatives and another for Crop production, they all have different roles but report to one minister.

   • @ The Monitor my friend what are you trying to justify,extravagancy at the expense of the ordinary citizens,please it is important to keep quiet sometimes.

   • [email protected], I was responding to THE PRINCE who was implying that the 3 D/ ministers will be unproductive because they will be fighting each other. I have very good understanding of how the system operates than you will ever get to know.
     In case you didn’t know, under president RB this ministry was divided into two, there by having two full cabinet ministers and two D/ministers much more costly than it is at the moment. AS for Home affairs, do you know how many departments fall under it? Let me list some for you; Police, DEC, Prisons, NRC, Immigration may i go on? This ministry is big one D/minister may surely fail.
     Stop over reacting.

3. its not only Ministry of Home Affairs with 3 Deputies,, also agriculture has 3 deputies,,indeed this this costly.

   • This is what Zambians wanted. We created jobs for a few crooks. Is this the sata pipo knew 3 years ago? This man is not normal. He condemned RB for having a bloated cabinet but he is doing the opposite. In fact worse than RB. How can one describe a person like this? We have been cheated by this man. He is very lucky that he is ruling a country with 70% ignorant people with a weak democracy. But one day he will face the wrath of our pipo. It may be in his death or in his old age.

4. I cannot believe this!

5. BECAUSE OUR LEADERS ARE OUT OF TOUCH (OLD fashioned) THIS COUNTRY DOES NOT INVEST IN TECHNOLOGY, THEY ARE HUMAN CAPITAL DEPENDANT HENCE SUCH A HUGE NUMBER OF DEPUTY MINISTERS. EVEN ALL GOVERNMENT OFFICES ARE OVER EMPLOYEED, YET DOING NOTHING. IMAGINE GOVERNMENT COST ON THEIR BENEFITS & ALLOWANCES? WHAT A SHAME? NEXT IT WILL BE 4 IN EACH MINISTRY TO MAKE SURE ALL CADRES ARE COVERED. THEY ARE LOOTING ZAMBIA

6. In fact the ministries with 3 deputies are the ones with a lot of problems: one wonders what the 3 deputies are doing. B=stard=ds.

7. Does anyone know how much the deputy ministers are paid and the perks?

8. Ministry of Commerce also has 3 now after the swearing in of the UPND chap!

9. don’t comment, you will be told “YOU ARE JUST BITTER”

10. What did you expect? Do they even understand economics, sustainability? And yet some people are shouting out that things are better now with the PF in power.

11. Good start to reach target of one million jobs created

    • Liars: it’s disgusting to see the deputy minister and commissioner of prisons telling lies on znbc TV that no prisoners were killed, these two are a classic example pf liars, the truth is that 9 bodies are in kabwe general hospital. Can these two come out and apologise to the nation for their dishonesty. If they dont then they have no conscience.

12. There is nothing wrong with this

    Thanks

    • Good Girl!, you can go ahead a eat one more banana, its good for monkey mentality

    • Mushota is spot on today

    • I told you ka hule that blow jobs are bad you dont take me seriously.anyway only that with me am convinced mushota you do not exist LT just created you to spice up their topics.thats why you are the longest fiancee to grace this world as well as the longest scholar in one course.you are a hoax

    • you are a dimwit. why do you always seek attention by writting crap?

13. @mushota. what did you eat today? you have spoken sense today. hope you carry on like this and leave out your private life here waumfwa

    • she ate bananas

14. Don’t be suprised, I have been telling you that you voted for a wrong one, he has no plan.
    Even though some wishes are crazy, I wish Hugo Chavez was president of Zambia, and not Sata as a president of Venezuela. Yayaya Ba Sata ku Venezuela kuti batemwa, lets see if he will go for funeral.

15. There is nothing wrong with stealing but who you steal from and for what purpose; so says the King.

16. sata campaigned on cutting government spending. he even rode on a minibus in livingstone to save on transport costs and the post newspaper praised him as a president for the poor.as the saying goes that he has no brains what we see is to the contrary. he reminds me of magnetic theory of south pole and south pole that they repel. which translates to himself and his election promises. the two cant be brought closer they repel. or his brains and his actions the two repel.

17. bloated and over sized inefficient govt..we cannot develop with these people ..

18. Where is the foolish and stupid Chief Puta?

    • Stupid *****, dont insult my chief. cikala cobe

    • Chanda it is not the real Chief Puta, its some one who calls himself/ herself chief Puta on this Forum.

19. KITWE-CHINGOLA ROAD CLOSED OFF SINCE 14.00HRS DUE TO AN ACCIDENT.

    WHEN IS THE DUEL CARRIAGE COMING?

20. I for one dont see anything wrong with it infact these people are zambians who doesnt want a job unless it was you infact this is part of job creation what is wrong with you in all these offices there are office orderies etc etc why complain if they are working

    • You have been ripe for a brain transplant for sometime now.

21. Conflicting statement from YALI. 1. Too many deputy ministers, reduce the number. 2. Thank u for appointing youthful deputy ministers. Now what Mundia Hakoola? Tell me!

22. All these ministers have families every minister employed 30 more people are being fed and more members of extendern families you must learn to value human life if the president is not stealing but giving jobs you people there is no wroncg done can you take him to ourt

23. at lands there are two also

24. if u fail to live up to your words is called incompetence. what m seeing in our government looks like it, maybe someone must tell what this is. when is the presdo going to settle from appointing and so he can do his actual work coz appointment is just but a tip of the iceberg of his terms of reference. ba sata do the work you were elected for to do. how many things have you promised and not fulfilled…..remember you gave a time frame of 90 days, all this is just disgracing the credibility of the party, mind you PF is you as a president, the rest especially winter is a chief parasite free rider. enough of appointments.

25. Clear to me that Sata has no brain to make Zambia better than he found it. What does it take for us to realize that we have a simpleton for a prez?

26. People lets be real- Mr. Mundia Hakoola should actually go further and publish what the actual cost of these minister is maybe also their CVs and he should also go further to see who are in the Foreign Service and also the DAs and PSs – The PF was so strong against Mwanawasa’s and RB’s cabinet size. Corruption is not just stealing .THIS IS ALSO CORRUPTION. PF is depriving the Zambians the much needed resources by appointing friends and relatives to positions they dont even qualify for. Mundia Hakoola well done but go further .

27. Kwena ba Presido abalipacipuna li loss!!! After taking about cabinet sizes during LPM & RB, the b u g g e r has done the exact thing he condemned and more! Kanshi S A T A ninshi fipita mumutwe?

28. Too much deadwood that would keep a bonfire burning brightly for a full week that includes the president as well!!

29. A govt of Bemba’s for the Bembas with a few token appointments!!

30. Muleumfwako insoni, how can you have such a bloated cabinet and deputy ministers bushe nin’gombe shakuteka. Ba Kaunda nabo he cant advice properly his first cabinet was 14 , but now look at this Clan of minister

    • hhahahahah…. ni n`gombe! a clan of ministers??? hahahahahah

31. Iwe all the donors to PF have to eat and enjoy tax payers money. That was also done in the chiluba days. so whats the problem. Let them enjoy their Landcruisers, Prados and Pajeros while they contribute to the decay of Zambia. More money in your pocket….

32. One of the promises that the President made before getting to plot 1 was that of reducing the size of the cabinet to cut on government expenditure.

    Has this promise been fulfilled?

    And why have three deputy ministers? Is one deputy minister not enough?

33. Since the PF have been in government, all you hear is: ‘ president sata was swearing in….’, ‘in the upcoming by-election…’, ‘appeared in court today..’ It would be nice if someone started implementing some of the stalled up work in progress left behind by Mwanawasa. In my opinion, what the PF government is doing is 1. Continue any work that Mwanawasa left coz it was GOOD. 2. stop any work that was started by RB at all cost. 3. work hard to eliminate opposition as they intend to stay a good 20 years and will only start actual work after 2016. But I don’t know…more and more people are getting educated through the media ie tv, radio…music… and its a tactic that is destined to fail… That’s my opinion…

34. I guess they are all headed to Harvard for that $20,000 certificate!

35. Much of the comments on this website ARE DEMON OPINION.
    DEMON OPINION IS not PUBLIC OPINION.
    DEMONS call other demon workers of lawessness from other countries to help them in their course. Zambian demons know it is end game for them and are soliciting for help from demons in other countries.
    DEMONS all over the world it is game over.
    What you have been doing for the last 6000 years is over now.
    Demons show yourselves on these websites you have sent up and continual your senseless comments. And you know what will be coming your way. True to the word.

37. Health- Rural health care deputy Minister

    Urban Health care sys-deputy minister

    Health Admin & infrastructure -Deputy Minister

    it was too much for one deputy Minister

38. Thank you for the info. Can someone complete the picture by telling us how many permanent secretaries there are in each ministry and relate how the ministers and their deputies relate to the permanent secretaries!

39. Very soon, we will have three Army Commanders.

40. This is good all these people were out of employment and government has done it well to employ them. do not complain wait for your time. Ichalo nifupa bakolokontakofwe washa. five days ago president Sata said his government has employed over 50,000 people these include ministers and their deputies.

41. Money saved from cutting down on these useless deputy minister appointments would benefit more people – especially in accessing vital services like health, education, water e.t.c. People are forgetting that apart from their salaries, these ministers claim all sorts of allowances, use transport at tax payers expense, e.t.c. For the size and population of Zambia, such a bloated clueless regiment of so-called govt. officials is unnecessary. In addition, in every ministry there are perm secs, deputy perm secs, secretaries, under secretaries …. blur blur blur. Politics of appeasement at the expense of real work!

42. It is because of a blank cheque constitution which gives the President to do what he is doing.Let us come up with a good constitution which must state the number of ministries and the personnel it should have but as it is, it’s open. Just look at how all the 5 President came up with ministries. The reason for these appointments is to increase the numbers to ensure the voting pattern in Parliament is in favor of the government. But the question we must ask is why ?
