Some Civil Servants

Dear Editor,

It is with great disappointment that an initiative which was meant to clear up the system under the Local Government Commission,has been turned into business.Transfers at the Local Government Service Commission are being given to same people who are offering bribes to officers at the commission. Employees have been applying for transfers with genuine reasons but the commission has decided to turn a blind eye on such requests and concentrate with money making mission. It should be noted that some people only serve their duty stations for less than a year.

regards,

Disgruntled Civil Servant

  3. Nakonde District Council has been in the past one of the best performing council in terms of revenue collection surpassing even urban local authorities.Surprisingly,the new Council Secretary and his Treasurer,who are rarely in the offices and ever out attending meetings some of which he is supposed to delegate his subordinates is worrisome.Its financial position has gone down and most of its bank accounts is ever negative as a result of these two officers who we would like the Local Govt/public service commission to remove them with the urgency it deserves to save the little resources.Otherwise,if they are not transferred the day to day operations of the council will greatly be affected.They sometimes make unnecessary trips to enable themselves get allowances.The only senior person one…

  5. The governance system is rotten all the way, with all strata involved. Corruption is a serious virus which has permeated our social fabrics. Where there is no vision from our political leadership, the whole country perishes.

  6. You are just an ***** instead of PF GOVT talking about lowering prices of mealie meal,fuel,electricity and many other daily basic needs,your fraudulent GOVT is busy fighting the church,clergymen,chiefs and opposition political parties that criticise them.Which GOVT effort is being frustrated by UPND..you mangwamuzi yet Lungu,ECZ and indeed his foolish GOVT has even failed to pay car hire owners who were contracted during 2016 general elections?

  7. Some senior positions have been given to recruits leaving out experienced and qualified officers! Very demotivating!
