RTSA normalises printing of driver’s license

Driving Licence
The Road Transport and Safety Agency [RTSA] has normalised the printing of driver’s License cards.

RTSA Acting Senior Public Relations Manager Fredrick Mubanga disclosed

the development in a press statement issued to ZANIS in Lusaka today.

Mr Mubanga said the agency has secured raw materials and has since resumed the production of driver’s licences card.
He further stated that the agency will soon dispatch over 8,000 cards to all RTSA stations and that a total of 22,612 cards are waiting to be printed.

Mr Mubanga attributed the challenges faced in the production of drivers licences cards to erratic supply of the imported raw materials used to print the cards.

Meanwhile RTSA has urged members of the public, that had applied for driver’s licences in the past few months to contact the Agency or visit its offices.

The agency also emphasized that the temporal Licence is a valid licence and does not need extension but where it is inevitable, extensions will be done by printing of duplicate temporal Drivers Licence at no fee.

  1. This is the inflation that PF’s Sata used to despise ati “tukalalya inflation?”. The chickens have come home to roost now, everything is in short supply.

  2. Bamba materials imported, drivers license materials imported. Is there anything simple can be made in Zambia using Zambian materials? what a country. Yet we have half baked UNZA and CBU Students demonstrating over simple K300 meal allowance.

    • During my time , I was sharing a room with this 4th year Electrical (Power) engineering student who everytime he had his Pressing Iron (Ishimbi) damaged, he would ask me to repair it for him as he didn’t know how to do it but ali ni bookwork ch1kala. Twali pa Africa 5 ku ruin

  3. @Mwiponta Mukabwela. Can’t see the connection between products made at home and the University students’ demonstration over non payment of their “simple(really?!?)” meal allowance.

    • .@awe sure..
      …I’m surprised….like your name sure….you cannot see the connection sure…. .

  4. The ills of Africa! Professor Lumumba when addressing an audience claimed that if they were all to strip off imported material they would all be naked.
