The government has described as fake reports that passport fees have been increased.

Acting Information Minister Stephen Kampyongo says the information circulating on social media is fake and those circulating the information it on social media must stop alarming the public.

And Mr Kampyongo has directed relevant security institutions to trace the purveyors of the false information on the passport fees.

Mr Kampyongo, who is also Home Affairs Minister, says the news is fake from people bent at causing unwarranted public anxiety.

He explained that passport fees are statutory fees, which are not just announced but backed by a Statutory Instrument.

Mr Kampyongo said in a statement that the passport fees have remained the same.

  1. Thank you kapoyongo, that is how you respond to fake news , you dispute it ……..

    If lungu had listened and responded to people calling him a corrupt theif from day one , you would not be in this position where social media rules.

    But lungu could not refute allegations that he is a corrupt theif because he more than likely is corrupted and thougt ignoring the allegations is best

    • Spake: You simply have no common sense you chimp. How could Lungu respond to something that is true even today?
      With your st.up.id heard, how could Lungu explain his increase in wealth from K2 million in 2011 to K23 million within 18 months after being President if it was not by stealing?
      Not surprising, idyots like Spake live in the midst of English civilisation but his heard is still full of his Zambian jungle.

    • Chilyata

      You are an ignorant monkey given a chance on a keyboard who does not understand sarcasm.

      Before you realised that he MacDonald food you eat making your fat , I have been calling out lungu to deny he is a corrupt theif,

      As they say , you can take a black monkey out of the Bush , but can’t take the Bush put of the monkey applies to you……

    • Ba kapyopyo TAH! Managing economy ya ziko sinkani yaba kapyopyo TAH! 2021 ni year yama economic managers not ma cadresians TAH!

      second verse TAH!

      Nizabwela bwino TAH!

  2. This is the Fake News itself! Government announced the 300% increases yesterday and the SI is there for everyone to see. Kampyongo is lying – Mpundu is right. This PF is a Govt of thieves, by thieves and for thieves.

    • This is when this monkey is realising the PF is a group of theives lead by a theif ????

      In his anger at being so gullible to follow theives , he now lashes out at people on LT who have been calling lungu a theif from day one…..

    • Speke: Are you not even ashamed of yourself and total igno.rance and sheer stup.idity! Or is it just in-born. You caterpillar, your posting praising Chimpongo simply shows your sheer madness and outright gullibility to the praise of PF Cadres like you. You said:
      “Thank you kapoyongo, that is how you respond to fake news , you dispute it ……..If lungu had listened and responded to people calling him a corrupt theif from day one , you would not be in this position”
      Are you not ashamed Speke or its your sheer ign.orance of what you were saying?

    • Speke:
      From your sh.it posting above – are you praising or criticising Chipongo and Lungu? It shows just how foo,lish you are to turn around and try to be on our side.
      For your own information, I’m an ardent supporter of the opposition and I use my own resources to liberate our country against Lungu; Most importantly I VOTE in elections. I am not an idyot like you that has no direction and doesn’t know what they are doing! One day you praise PF foo.lishness (like today) and next day you want to pretend to be opposing

    • You are just a dull monkey iwe who has discovered the internet….

      Since when have you been blogging ?

      Your mother is a who.re you son of a bit.ch

  3. Comment: Unfortunately it’s always lies until it comes into force, which it will with another lame reason to justify the governments feeble ways to economically further “strangle” an already chocked nation. Mr K, be true to yourself. Remember all things come to an end.

  4. I thought the salary of the President is statutory too. Where is the statutory instrument? A statement from Chipampe is NOT a statutory instrument. What do these chimps smoke? Arrest Lungu for spreading fake news that he has reduced his salary. So in Zambia the President can increase or reduce his salary at will. This is a country of apes!!!!

  5. You can increase it as much as you want. Who in their right mind wants a zambian passport? Mine went in the bin many years ago

  6. People can now believe in anything so long its bordering on squeezing their bollls. So thats what it is bwana. There is no fake news bosses unless you tell me that fuel hike and Zesco power hike next month is also fake. You are just fake yourself people are tired of this kind of deceit and trickery. Better keep quiet and enjoy yo loot!!!
    Disaster!!!

  7. They always have two statements at the ready on some matters. One affirming and then depending on the reaction, one that denies.

  8. THIS GOVERNMENT IS FULL IRRESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUALS,TODAY THEY WILL REFUTE THE STORY BUT DAYS LATER THEY WILL AGREE AS THE CASE WAS WITH THE CULTIVATION OF MARIJUANA.IT WAS FIRST REPORTED IN SOCIAL MEDIA BUT TO CONTRARY DORA SILIYA REFUTED BUT AFTER SOME DAYS SHE AGREED THAT CABINET APPROVED THE CULTIVATION AND ALSO THE BLACK LENCWE IN BANGUEULA SWAMPS THE STORY IS THE SAME.THE PF IS FULL OF QUESTION MARKS AS IT IS A FAILED REGIME.
