LUSAKA mayor, Wilson Kalumba has charged that no vendor will be expected to pay the K200 which was demanded from vendors by the Vendors Association of Zambia (VAZ).
Mr. Kalumba told the VAZ representative that city market belongs to Lusaka City Council which is working closely with government to take care of all repair works at city market under the Disaster Management and Mitigation Unit (DMMU).
“City market belongs to Lusaka City Council (LCC) and as far as I am concerned no decision has been made by us to charge vendors any amount before being allocated trading space in city market,” Kalumba said.
This was after the VAZ representatives demanded K200 from each vendor, a move which they say was meant to repair the roof of the gutted city market and other minor works.
And Mr. Kalumba said the LCC will enhance the enforcement of the Local government (Street vending and nuisances) regulations for 2017 and the urban and regional planning Act no. 3 of 2015 to stop people from trading in undesignated places.
Now you’re waking up from sleep my young man Mr mayor; I wish you the best this time;
ONLY IF YOU WILL STOP SLEEPING DURING WORKING HOURS AND EVEN GET PAID BY THE GOVERNMENT USING TAX PAYERS’ MONEY FOR SLEEPING IN YOUR OFFICE AND ELSEWHERE. HOWEVER, KNOWING THAT, “OLD HABBITS DIE HARD”, YOU WILL CONTINUE SLEEPING AND I AM PRETTY SURE OF THIS.
PF cadres are charging vendors outside city market K500.Political Mafiosi is entrenched and tolerated as the power base in Africa and its hated. This is something that UNIP was hated for,MMD was hated for and in PF its worse as the ruling class and ruling clergy is detached from the grassroots. Mafia like in the name of PF collect fees at Kulima Tower,City Market in full view and knowledge of the Council Agents.
It was the first item of 6:45 Radio Phoenix news on 24/1/18 and the former on Prime evening news the day before
Even the next party will be the same until Christ comes. You think HH if he were to become president would appease the cadres from his pocket? Mwanawasa tried to get rid of them but had to go back to them. Unfortunately that’s how it’s.
Being dirty and unhygienic is NOT an emergency! It is CARELESSNESS. Put things into perspective for fcuks’ sake!
Where does VAZ take the money to when the streets are filthy…this Wilson is sleeping like his lazy Boss in State House!!
Did you have nice dreams in your last sleep….useless so called Mayor??????????
VAZ makes payments to those dancers who see lungu off and recive lungu at airports ……that is where the money goes.
We have told you….pf caders rule ….and no one can stop them….inpectores can not do their jobs because of these corrupt PF thugs encouraged by mwila the PF SG to take over public spaces…
Lungu and his gang of PF theiving rats are only intrested in consolidating their corrupt rule in Zambia at the expense of all norms of normal local government…
Basically what everyone is saying is that Zambia is running on a system of patronage.
Cadres carry the invoice book for stalls, bus stations, etc.
In return they beat up opposition, arrange fake mass rallies etc
Until cadre-ism is extinguished the system just collapses
Mr President, set an example and reign in the cadres
These same cadres will turn on you someday
As a president you mean well, but the goons need to go
He is awake Ka!!!!!
@Mweo, he has just woken up! Look at his eyes. Ati ni official picture ka!
Just to say 10kwacha Levey on every phone user. Doesn’t matter if you have four Sim cards. 10 kwaxha titenga. This is day light robbery
