Vice President Inonge Wina has dispelled assertions that District Commissioners are using government vehicles to campaign for the ruling PF candidate in the Mangango Parliamentary by-election, adding that such assertions are only assumptions.
Speaking during the Vice President’s Question Time in Parliament, Mrs. Wina said District Commissioners are not allowed to participate in election campaigns.
Mrs. Wina also said that she also knows that there are no government vehicles being used in the campaigns in the Mangango by-election.
Mrs. Wina stated that any other report suggesting otherwise, as is being received by some opposition political parties, is not the true facts on the ground.
Mrs. Wina explained that all the campaign vehicles the ruling PF is using in Mangango, for example, have been secured from Lusaka and that anyone in doubt of this fact should feel free to go to Mangango and verify whether it is true that there are some government vehicles being used in the campaigns.
The Vice President was responding to UPND Monze Central Member of Parliament Jack Mwiimbu during the Vice President’s question time toady.
Mr. Mwiimbu wanted to find out what measures Government has put in place to ensure that Civil servants do not participate in campaigns during the Mangango by-election.
And Vice President Inonge Wina has said that all the Permanent Secretaries appointed under the PF Government are well trained and qualified for their jobs.
Mrs. Wina said that the Permanent Secretaries were scrutinised before their appointment to ensure that they were qualified to run their respective offices.
The Vice President was responding to FDD Chienge Member of Parliament Given Katuta during the Vice President Question time in parliament.
Ms. Katuta asked Mrs. Wina whether Government is considering extending the verification of academic qualifications to Permanent Secretaries.
For as long as the ruling party/president continue(s) to have appointing power, they will always overtly or close to overtly campaign for you. It is simple logic. The conflict of interest that your government continues to pretend to be blind to is a huge part of why we remain so blatantly corrupt. Think it through madam. Act to further the plight of country for once.
No one can believe what she is saying anyway, this old lady has become a perpetual lier as well, what a shame
Like you are talking to kids madam. And as if anybody can stop your out of control cadres abafimasele.
Let’s facilitate the sending of the the boy into retirement in 2021.
All you old people in government need to step down in retirement n allow the young ones to take over, you’ve done your part enjoy retirement with your families as we all know life is too short to working throughput
So are you going to fire any civil servant campaigning in the by-election?
Boring
Powerful VEEP madam Inonge Wina.
Jack Mwiimbu and his team were tasks to provide evindence of DCs are using vehicles to campaign and he looked like a fool.
Powerful VEEP madam Inonge Wina.
Jack and his team were challenged to provide evindence were DCs are campaigning using govt vehicle.
Jack looked stupid….
As usual patriotic front putting on a front just like their name suggests, what are you anyway a popular front or united front because you don’t fit in any of the two.
Are DCs in those offices legally? I mean, is that office supported by our constitution?
The greatest challenge with PF is to accept the truth. DCs have been in Mangango unless they have been removed.
VERY FRESH AND LOOKING FIT FOR 2021
