A police officer been arrested in Chambishi for using someone else to write his examination.

Musole Musole, 43, of Kitwe, paid George Chilundika of house number E 127 Wuzakile to write examinations on his behalf.

Police sources in Kitwe confirmed the development to ZANIS in Kalulushi in a telephone interview today.

The sources said the incident happened on Thursday morning when Chilundika was in an examination class at Chambishi Secondary School writing Mathematics Paper two.

The impeccable sources said Musole managed to obtain a new National Registration Card (NRC) with all particulars bearing his name, but the picture which was on the NRC was for Chilundika.

The sources said Chilundika was caught in an examination class by some people who knew him as to be a very intelligent boy and that he did very well at Grade 12 two years ago and so there was no need for him to rewrite.

Musole is currently detained at Chambishi Police Station.

    • Under PF anything is very possible. Kambwili did the same but because he is a minister and paid those guys with money and promotions, he is safe for now.

    • @Wanzelu, let’s be reasonable, this madness has been going on since way back and has nothing to do with PF. My high school teacher did write for his wife at the same time I did my exams

    • @Jst Sayin: Give us the name of your teacher?? It is a crime and should be arrested. Worse of it that a man writing on behalf of a female?? That is real madness. You all just kept quite?? Where was the invigilator??

    • @Dontcare,correct! They are both wrong doers who should be behind bars. All this is because even the NRC issuance system has not been made fool proof despite world wide advances in Information and Communications Technology (ICT).

  1. What is happening in Zambia’s education system is utter rabish. I even doubt some of the caribre of the students enrolled at UNZA annually. No wonder the failure rate is such high because most pupils obtain good points at grade twelve in a corrupt way.
    Let it be a rule that whoever aspires to enrole as a first year student @ Unza should be subjected to an aptitude test, the way it is done at one of the colleges I know in Zambia. That is why it is easy to enrole at Unza than at such a college. Would be students are subjected to aptitude test, if they fail then they are not fit to enrole.

  2. Zambian documents are worthless and untrustworthy. Once upon a time getting an affidavit was a solemn and serious undertaking. Recently, I went to get one for my nephew and all the officials were interested in was the money. Three people signed and stamped it without reading it and charged me K5 (re-based) per signature. I never even got a receipt. The next day my nephew obtained a replacement NRC on the strength of the same affidavit.

    • But why did you not refuse to have the same affidavit done upon noticing this?…. you equally sound “worthless and untrustworthy”

  3. Fire the people who issued the NRC. Zambia is a joke. Very soon Zambian documents will be found on ISIS fighters. Eish. What a country.

    • Firing the issuers can be a short term solution. The country need to move on with technology to identify fraudulent unscrupulous behaviour. That the way for ward.

  4. Dr Phiri Start implementing PF manifesto on education.Leave GCE to school leavers. those who are working and want to up grade find another entry qualification for them. if a police wants to study law let the institution where he wants to train prepare a paper for him

  5. The police officer is just being resourceful you all.He is thinking outside the box. It is called being innovative you all.It is called finding a way round an obstacle you all
    I f more of us think like that imagine how far we would go
