The Young African Leaders Initiative (YALI) has said that it is very unfortunate that every successive governmnet, even after being reminded, has continued to use public funds in election campaigns.
YALI board chairperson Andrew Ntewewe has observed that the Patriotic Front despite condemning the act when in opposition has gone in the same path. Ntewewe said that it is sad that the PF government is repeating the same mistakes made by the MMD administration.
Speaking to QFM, Ntewewe said that any government must always realize and understand that public resources must not be used in party affairs. The PF are alleged to have used public resources in the just ended by-elections across the country.
And the Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD) has charged that the Zambia Center for the Interparty Dialogue (ZCID) is failed to perform as expected. Speaking in an interview with Qfm news, MMD national secretary Richard Kachingwe says ZCID has not performed to the expectation of all political stakeholders; a situation he said is worrying.
Major Kachingwe further observed that ZCID has not been given the necessary requisites to preside over matters with regards to the political system in the country by government.
He said that it is therefore important for government to give credence to the ZCID for it to operate efficiently.
Major Kachingwe has also urged officers at the ZCID to rise to the occasion and implement the mandate on which it was established.
He has also challenged ZCID to clearly state why the institution should be trusted by all political players.
