Government has approved the transfer of Zambia Railways Limited (ZRL) Headquarters to Kabwe in Central Province from Lusaka.

Transport Works and Communications Minister Yamfwa Mukanga has told a media briefing that as minister responsible for transport he keenly took time to study and look at the operations of Zambia Railways Limited.

Mr. Mukanga explains that he is also impressed with how much work ZRL is doing so far and this is a clear sign of how government is committed to ensuring that the railway transport gets to another level.

Mr. Mukanga points out that government is working in line with party manifesto by delivering the best to the Zambian people.

He says after analyzing all issues surrounding the operations of ZRL, he has finally decided to approve the transfer of the ZRL Headquarters to Kabwe.

Mr. Mukanga has since indicated that the headquarters will start functioning by February 2015.

  1. This is typical PF madness at its best! Why did they move it in the first place?

    Ubu ndiye uchimbwi no plan for sure. HH has been vindicated on many things he said of PF.

    • Imwe ndimwe akapuba zoona. Imwe vilivonse ni HH. Muzakafa HH wanu aka luza masankho yabwela. You are lucky I’ve even replied to your post. Many times I don’t even read your posts. Zaijian. ??

    • @Wanzelu, No need to comment if you don’t understand all the details. It wasn’t moved by any gov’t, RSZ were the ones who moved it after it was concession-ed to them

    • RB discipline nikuti panyo pako, so iwe u dont realise that iyi ni inee jerk reaction to HH’s pronounement of moving ZR hq to kabwe?mapoloo yako

    • Sata is the one that instructed it be moved from kabwe to lusaka. HH said he would move it back to kabwe once elected. Pf have panicked and have decided to move it back so that the kabwe people can like pf again. Pathetic.u

    • What does relocating its HQ have to do with anything- or HH? Its just a sign that its working better than it used to be, who would care moving it if it was bankrupt or non-profiting?

    • So if HH promise to move the HQ to Kabwe then what? Then he has worked? Yaba!! Honestly if this is how we reason countrymen, then we are the most to be pitied.

    • Why do you people support Freemasons like HH? Do you take time to find out what freemason is. This country will be worse off than it is. Blood sacrifices will be on you. Chipuba is better off than killers.

    • aJinja namwe ndimwe akapuba monga aWanzelu alibe nzelu. So imwe mu mutu mwanu muona monga kutukwana ndiye nzelu? Muzakafa imwe HH wanu aka luza masankho yabwela mu January. Zambia will continue to be there whether HH becomes president or not. There is no need to insult other people because they don’t support your candidate. Your insulting people who don’t support your preferred candidate shows how shallow minded you are. May God have mercy upon you. Regards

  2. Isn’t it in Kabwe already? Anybody who works in Kabwe must be paid hardship allowance for having to deal with all that Polution!

    • HH is no Fremanson, stop insulting the incoming President. Its high time we had a person to be proud of as President to address many ills.e.g. no hospital in Zambia capable treating a President. What a shame

    • @ malunga j
      Youngman you are a Satanist. Mind yo language as I know where u stay and yo girl frends. Behave or else????

  3. Why did you move it from Kabwe in the first place.How much is it going to cost for such a goof ba pf?Mulesabaila fye nomba

    • Iwe you should be abreast with the happenings in your country. It was Railway Systems of Zambia who moved the headquarters to Lsk. RSZ the concessioners who ran down our railway system

  4. Not this fooli#h imbecolic transport minister again. ..this issue was widely discussed in the Chriwa debacle. …we all know ZRL h/q has always been in Kabwe since when has it moved?

    • It wasn’t MMD either. It was Railway Systems of Zambia who moved the headquarters to Lsk. RSZ the concessioners who ran down our railway system

  5. Hon Yamfya Mukanga, you should also advise Zambia Railways to reduce the fares of the Micheal Sata Express Train just by 10%. The train is more advanced than Mukuba Train of TAZARA but the problem is it being very expensive. For example, from Kitwe to Choma one pays K160 in Standard Coaches, while the same amount is paid by a passenger from Kapiri to Nakonde in First Class or Sleeper. In short as at now, TAZARA is more cheap than Zambia Railways Express Train. Pliz reduce the fares alit bit, otherwise it is the first time I have boarded such a wonderful train since I was born.

    • its just the same old coaches painted.that thing wont last.those changes and modifications are cosmetic.its total ripoff of the euro boond money

  6. The wife to the managing director has messed up her bosses in pf he should pray that they do not win elections otherwise he will be fired.
