Secretary General of the ruling Patriotic Front (PF) Wynter Kabimba
Justice Minister Wynter Kabimba says any civil society group or political party having difficulties trusting the Patriotic Front on the new constitution should not do so through the media.
Mr. Kabimba who is also PF Secretary General says those having reservations on whether or not the ruling party will respect the wishes of the Zambian people on the constitution should instead write to the government as opposed to making public statements in the media.
His statement follows some concerns raised by some stakeholders that the ruling PF may not keep its word on subjecting the final draft constitution to a national referendum following the adoption of some contentious articles by the just ended National Constitution Convention.
Mr. Kabimba has also told Qfm News that the ruling PF will not run the affairs of government in the media by responding to every statement that civil society groups or political parties make in the media against the PF.
The National Convention resolved that the national referendum be conducted at least within 12 months after the report has been handed over to the President in order to allow the Electoral Commission of Zambia to prepare for the exercise.
The closure of National Convention marked the conclusion of the formal consultative process on the drafting of the Zambian constitution.
The National Convention received and considered comments and recommendations of the 10 Provincial Conventions and further examined and deliberated on the clauses of the First Draft Constitution.
Vice President Guy Scott
Republican Vice President Guy Scott has described the relationship between the PF government and the Baroste Royal Establishement (BRE) as excellent.
Dr Scott revealed this during a live radio program at Lyambai radio community station in Mongu yesterday.
The Vice President told listeners that the PF government shares a common agenda with the BRE that of bringing development to the province.
Dr Scott lamented that Western province was neglected by the previous administration hence the under development in the area.
However he emphasized that the PF government is working hard in a bid to develop the area.
Dr Scott cited the creation of new nine (9) districts as one way the government is using to bring development closer to the communities, adding that the creation of districts will result in a creation of 200 jobs per district.
Dr Scott hinted that nine District Commissioners have since been appointed for the newly created districts.
The Vice President further said more jobs will be created once the construction of the stadium and university commences.
The Vice President is optmistic that the people of Western province will feel the impact of development as government implements various development projects in the province.
Dr Scott however, stated that the PF government has the commitment of developing the entire country.
Deputy Minister of Home Affairs Steven Kampyongo says there is need for local investors in Muchinga Province particularly Chinsali to ensure that documents of acquiring land are approved by the Local Authorities.
Mr Kampyongo said it is important that the local investors follow the laid down procedures of acquiring land in order to avoid causing confusion on the Chinsali Local Area Plan.
He said as people begin on the construction of infrastructure in the provincial headquarters there is need for the people to be guided on the areas suitable to build the kind of structures they are putting up.
Mr Kampyongo said this during a stakeholders review meeting held at Chinsali’s Council Chamber yesterday.
And speaking at the same meeting, Chinsali Municipal Council Town Clerk Patrick Kambita said it has been discovered that some headmen are issuing land within the 16 hectares of land which Senior Chief Nkula forfeited to the PF government for developmental purposes early last year.
Mr Kambita said despite the sensitization meetings which were held earlier this year for Chiefs to sensitize their people on the state land, some leaders are still encouraging illegal activities concerning land.
Mr Kambita said some people have illegally been issued land at Nambuluma turn off saying such will greatly affect the Local Area Plan if not checked.
The Town Clerk said to ensure the smooth running of the new Chinsali Town, Chiefs must help in stopping the vice, adding that if something goes wrong with the planning, the authority will be blamed.
Mr. Kambita said if people acquire land illegally and start building on the state land it will lead to buildings being demolished which will be costly to the government as owners of such buildings will seek compensation.
Meanwhile, Mr Kampyongo has charged that demolishing of buildings will be another expenditure on the part of the local authority even before the projects commence, adding that the matter is better off resolved now than later in order to avoid over spending.
In another development, Chinsali Town Clerk has disclosed that funds worth KR 1 million have been allocated to the local authority for the construction of the Civic Centre in Muchinga Province.
However, Mr Kambita lamented that the amount allocated will not be enough to build the kind of structure befitting the status of a Municipal Council.
He said the council intends to build a 6-story building, adding that the council will appreciate if government releases more funds to enable them build the desired structure and use the KR 1 million as a starter.
On the planned construction of a civic centre, Mr Kampyongo has advised Chinsali Municipal Council to ensure that a plan is instituted before starting to spend the funds.
Mr Kampyongo who is also Shiwang`andu Constituency Area Member of Parliament has since urged all Ward Councillors who were present at the meeting to work as a team and ensure that the information discussed is shared.
“By day the LORD went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day or night.”
(Exodus 13:21, NIV)
TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
Fear is exaggerated. It can be overwhelming. It always takes you to the worst-case scenario. Fear is like a fog. It will always cloud the truth. It tries to make you stumble. It tries to block your vision and keep you from seeing the good plan God has on the road up ahead.
So how do you lift the fog of fear? In the Bible, God led the Israelites toward their Promised Land with a cloud by day and a cloud of fire by night. It was the cloud of His glory. The cloud of His glory is where you’ll find joy, strength, peace, love and protection. It’s where you’ll find vision and direction. It will keep you on God’s path. Scripture tells us today that when we worship, He inhabits the praises of His people. He brings His glory into our midst. When God shows up, the enemy has to flee. When the cloud of His glory is present, it burns up the fog of fear.
Today, if you feel like you’re in a fog of fear, stop and get into the cloud of His glory. Put on some worship music and turn your heart toward the Father. When you praise Him, He shows up and lifts the fog of fear so you can clearly see the good plan He has in store for you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father, thank You for Your presence which drives fear out of my life. I praise You today because You are good and worthy. I magnify You and receive Your grace and strength today in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Defence minister Geoffrey Mwamba has announced that the Government is in a process of establishing a Marine wing in the defence force.
Mr Mwamba said the establishment of the marine forces follows the directive from President Michael Sata on the need to have such a division especially that Zambia has a number of water bodies.
The other reason is to protect the Zambian people including fishermen who live along the water bodies sharing borders with other countries.
“Since Zambia has a lot of water bodies, the Commander of the Armed Forces, President Michael Sata directed that a marine defence force be established, as soon as possible. The plan is already on the drawing board and will come to fruition soon,” Mr Mwamba said.
Mr Mwamba said this yesterday when he visited the Angolan supreme School of War where some defence personnel from Angola and other countries in the region usually undertake their military refresher courses.
Mr Mwamba who was taken on a tour of the college said Zambia had a similar set up but is called Staff College and also offered similar courses; expect training in the navy as the country does not have such a set up.
He said as Zambia was in the process of establishing a marine defence force, it would not hesitate to consult Angola to assist set up the division.
Mr Mwamba also said Government would soon modernize all the three defence wings in line with the modern international standards.
He said Government had recognised the urgent need to modernise the three defence wings, which include the Zambia Army, Zambia Air Force and the Zambia National Service because of the obsolete equipment they have.
He said the modernization of the three departments also entails the building of adequate housing units for the defence personnel in the country as the way of boosting their morale.
And Angolan Minister of Defence General Candido Van-Dunem pledged his country’s continued support to Zambia’s development agenda especially in the areas of defence through the training of military personnel and exchange programmes.
Gen. Dunem said Zambia and Angola have continued to enjoy political and economic ties and should therefore continue working together to foster peace and security especially on the borders of the two countries.
Opposition Political parties and other stakeholders yesterday took to task Kapiri Mposhi District Electoral officer and demanded to know why the access room where the ballot papers for the next week’s elections was left open over night.
This was after it was discovered that the access room was not locked and no one was able to provide an explanation on who opened the room.
The United Party for National Development (UPND) and UNIP accused the council officials of planning to rig the election for the upcoming by elections prompting the electoral officers to order that a verification of the ballots be carried out.
But District Electoral officer who is also Kapiri Mposhi district Council Secretary Mpande Hamwende who was at pain to explain to the political parties said he does not know who opened the room but assured that all the papers were intact and ruled out accusation of rigging.
Mr Hamwende said he was confident that the papers were intact and that no box was tempered with according to the serial numbers issued by the printer in the United Kingdom and asked them not to panic.
He explained that the only papers which were opened were the ballot papers samples which showed all the candidate and insisted that known of the ballot boxes were opened.
But UNPD aspiring candidate Lawrence Zimba and his UNIP counterpart Francis Mwape insisted that it was clear that there wanted to rig the elections.
By press time verification of the ballots were been carried out in the presences of the three political parties the ruling Patriotic Front (PF), UNIP,UPND and other stakeholders while police was keeping vigil.
Central Commissioner of police Standwell Lungu said calm had returned but police was monitoring the situation.
Meanwhile UNIP Vice President, Njekwa Anamela says his party was the only political party that can boast of delivering meaningful development to the people of Zambia when it formed government from 1964 to 1991.
Mr Anamela who was speaking during a rally to dram up support for the UNIP candidate Mr Mwape urged electorates in Kapiri Mposhi to vote for an opposition Member of Parliament in the April 23 by-elections for purposes of providing checks and balances to government.
“We built roads and here in Kapiri Mposhi we left Kapiri Grass Products (KGP), TAZARA among other companies that gave employment to our people but our colleagues have categorically failed to add value to these companies that’s why we have come back to remind you that you deserve better leadership than what you have now, “he said.
The UNIP leader who was flanked by its party National Chairman for Elections, Chigaga Banda and other senior party officials pointed out that UNIP succeeded in putting-up infrastructure and industries in all corners of the country which provided employment for the local people.
He added that UNIP would bounce back to power in 2016 and promised that the oldest political party in the country would deliver development to the expectations of its people.
He charged that the MMD and PF governments have clearly failed to match the levels of development left by UNIP and that the two political parties were merely riding on the achievements of UNIP.
And Mr Mwape urged electorates in Kapiri Mposhi to vote for him because he is a local person who identifies with the challenges that the constituency was faced with.
President Sata during the official opening of Shangombo District Hospital on April 19,2013-Picture by THOMAS NSAMA
President Michael Sata has advised the people of Western province not to focus their attention on Barotseland Agreement (BA) of 1964 but that they should embrace various developmental projects Government is delivering to them.
Mr Sata said the people of Western province should not be cheated by some people over BA of 1964 because his Government was already delivering massive developmental projects aimed at improving their welfare.
He said the locals could not ‘eat’ the BA of 1964 and that there were many tribes which were a segment of the province hence their need to focus on Government’s empowerment projects being carried out.
President Sata was speaking yesterday in Shangombo district when officially opened the long waited Shangombo District Hospital which was constructed at a cost of KR 26 million with a bed capacity of over 130.
“Nobody is going to eat the BA of 1964, because all of you need development and in this province, there are many tribes such as the Nkoyas, Mbundas, Chokwes, Luvales and the Lozi people who are a segment of the province.

“My Government is already delivering massive developmental projects and this is where you have to focus because we want to give you what you want,” he said
Shangombo District Hospital which was constructed by Tomorrow Investments Limited, a Zambian construction company, was equipped with maternity wards and other modern facilities.
Mr Sata was happy that the hospital would assists in alleviating the suffering of the locals in accessing quality health services and cutting the long distances they used to travel to get treatment.
He said he was proud to have been the one commissioning the hospital because it was among several developmental projects that Patriotic Front (PF) Government promised the locals through its manifesto.
President Sata said quality heal services were important to the livelihood of all Zambians and assured the locals that Government would ensure in each district in the province there was a modern hospital.
He urged Western Province Permanent Secretary Emmanuel Mwamba to ensure that more health facilities were constructed closer to the locals with quality health services.
The Head of State also directed the Minister of Energy to ensure that Shangombo district hospital was connected to the national electricity grid including other public institutions.
Nalolo’ s Wamunyima Mukubesa cuts a ribbon during the launch of the Muoyo Water Supply scheme project by President Michael Sata in Nalolo, Western Province on April 19,2013-Picture by THOMAS NSAMA
He asked the people of Western Province to give PF another Member Parliament during the Lukulu by-election saying it would not be good for them top continue wallowing in poverty at the expense of voting for the opposition parties.
And President Sata took a swipe at Cabinet ministers who had failed to
reach out to far flung areas such as Shangombo to learn about the
hardships the locals were encountering.
“Are you not ashamed that the people who voted for you are getting poorer while you are getting fatter? Some of you have never been here,” Mr Sata said amid jubilations from the crowds.
President Sata was saddened that several children and other people who welcomed him in Shangombo did not know where there next meal would come from.
He urged his ministers to be visiting rural areas such as Shangombo to understand the challenges people faced.
Later, Mr Sata commissioned the KR4.9 million Muoyo Water Supply Project in Nalolo in Western Province in which over 10, 000 residents would benefit from clean water supply.
[pullquote]“Are you not ashamed that the people who voted for you are getting poorer while you are getting fatter? Some of you have never been here,” Mr Sata said amid jubilations from the crowds.[/pullquote]
Earlier, Health Minister Joseph Kasonde assured the locals that his ministry was working diligently to construct more hospitals adding that of the 181 staff needed at the hospital, a total of 125 have already started working at the new medical facility.
Works, Supply , Communications and Transport Minister Christopher Yaluma said and Road Development Agency board chairperson Willie Nsanda said the ministry and RDA respectively would upgraded the poor road infrastructure in the area.
And the Litunga of the Lozi speaking people in Western Province Lubosi Imwiko has praised President Michael Sata for his diligent and concerted effort to deliver unprecedented development in the province.
Speaking on behalf of the King in Shangombo yesterday when President Sata officially commissioned the Shangombo district hospital, Acting Ngambela, Induna Kalonga said the traditional leader was impressed with Mr Sata’s efforts to develop the province.
“I have accompanied His Excellency President Sata on behalf of King Litunga here because he is impressed with what our Head of State on doing.
“As people of this province, we are happy with massive developmental projects the Government is delivering and we shall also work with it,” he said
He said the Barotse Royal Establishment (BRE) was behind the developmental projects that the Patriotic Front (PF) Government was implementing in the province.
Induna Kalonga said the efforts by President Sata to change the face of the province by building Shangombo District hospital was a clear indication that the Government was caring for the locals.
Confusion reigned at Kasama General Hospital Mortuary in the early hours of today when St Paul’s United Church of Zambia (UCZ) officials in Kasama and Taxis drivers differed over burial programme of a deceased person in Kasama.
Taxi drivers blocked the main way to the hospital entrance using taxis for over 40 minutes causing panic to mourners and other people who went to access health services at the institution.
But quick action by Police prevented the situation from worsening.
Kasama Taxis Drivers Association Chairperson Macmillan Mwanya told a ZANIS crew that rushed to the scene that his members were upset after the church leadership failed to incorporate them on burial programme for one of their colleague.
Mr Mwenya pointed out that the association wanted to accord the deceased a special burial ceremony it gives to its members.
And St Paul’s UCZ Boys Brigade Officer Thomas Chitambi described the drivers’ behaviour as barbaric.
Mr Chitambi narrated that the problems rose after the two parties failed to agree on the set burial programme which was instituted by the church and family members at the mortuary.
Scores of on lookers watched in disbelief as the drivers chanted various slogans denouncing the church.
And people talked to expressed disappointment at the manner in which the drivers handled the matter.
Grace Nachula 34 of Chiba village said the drivers should have allowed the Church to execute its duties without interfering.
Mrs Nachula said it was embarrassing and un traditional for people to quarrel over a dead body.
Calm only retained after the church allowed the drivers to perform their usual ceremony under police traffic escort of driving the coffin through new town roads and the central business district of Kasama.
The UPND campaign team in Kapiri Mposhi’s Chang’ondo Ward has condemned the alleged strategy by the ruling PF party to exchange their Chitenge campaign materials with electorate’s National Registration Cards (NRCs) and voters cards in the area.
Provincial UPND Secretary, Davy Siamuzyulu who is campaigning for his party in the area today told ZANIS in a telephone interview that a PF campaigner who he declined to name was this afternoon found with over 50 NRCs and voters cards allegedly exchanged with PF chitenge materials.
Mr Siamuzyulu further said he reported the matter to police adding that his party was aware that there are other perpetrators from PF reported to be engaged in vote buying in other areas of the district.
He said it was unfortunate that the campaigns in Kapiri Mposhi which have been peaceful all along could now result to such malpractices yet it has been the desire by all participating parties to have a free and fair election.
Mr Siamuzyulu also said that the ruling party has allegedly resorted to the vice of vote buying because the party has no support from the electorates in the area.
He further said he was confident that the police will act professionally in handling the matter stating that if the culprit is brought to book, then others engaged in the illicit electoral malpractice will refrain from the habit.
He however, appealed to the ruling PF party to ensure that they adhere to the electoral code of conduct in order to have a peaceful campaign process.
ZANIS efforts to get a comment from the PF officials failed by press time.
PRESIDENT Michael Sata opening a plaque during the ground breaking ceremony for the construction of the 20,000-seater Mongu Stadium
President Michael Sata has said Western province would develop faster and significantly if there were more Patriotic Front (PF) Members of Parliament (MPs) in the area.
Currently, there are only two PF Members of Parliament (MPs) out of 17 constituencies in the province and these are Nalolo MP, Inonge Wina and Mongu Central MP, Nathaniel Mubukwanu.
Mr Sata said the two PF Members of Parliament have worked hard towards fulfilling the ruling party’s campaign promises.
He said this in Nalolo district today when he launched the Muoyo Water Supply Project.
“If I had half of the MPs in Western province, the sky would be the limit,” President Sata said in apparent reference to development taking place in the region.
The President said he was sceptical about enhancing development in the province because if he did, the opposition political parties would be claiming to be responsible for that development.
Mr Sata said it was now up to the people of Western province to elect more PF Members to Parliament in future elections in the region in order to foster development.
And President Sata has bemoaned the fact that many people in Western province have remained poor despite the region being one of the first to produce intellectuals in the country.
He said his government would improve education systems in the country so that children do not end up at basic education level which he said would not help anyone do something tangible in life.
Earlier, Deputy Minister of Local Government and Housing Forrie Tembo said the Muoyo Water Supply project would gobble KR4.9 million.
Mr Tembo said the 10,000 Muoyo residents would benefit from the new water project, which was fully funded by his ministry.
He said his ministry was currently undertaking water and sanitation projects in many other areas of Western province adding that this would help improve people’s access to clean water.
And Nalolo Member of Parliament, Inonge Wina told the people in the area to support the PF government in its endeavours of developing the region.
Mrs Wina said President Sata and his government were now fulfilling promises which were made when the PF was campaigning to be elected into government.
Meanwhile, Acting Ngambela Godfrey Siisi (Induna Kalonga), who spoke on behalf of the Litunga of Western province in Limulunga district and Litunga Lamboela in Nalolo district, said the Barotse Royal Establishment (BRE) was happy with the PF government’s style of leadership and desire to develop the area.
Several cabinet and deputy ministers, senior government officials and representatives of the Barotse Royal Establishment (BRE) attended the function.
President Sata earlier commissioned newly Shangombo district hospital in Shangombo but boycotted to launch the ground breaking ceremony of the construction of the Mongu ultra modern stadium after realising that authorities responsible were not ready.
President Michael Sata this morning refused to symbolically perform the ground breaking ceremony at the site where the ultra modern stadium in Mongu is to be constructed.
Mr Sata boycotted to ‘break the ground’ because there was no mattock which he should have used to perform the symbolic activity.
He left the site where the stadium would be constructed, saying there was no way he could commission the construction exercise when things were not ready.
“You, there is nothing here. Why call me here when things are not ready,” he asked before walking to his official vehicle and left for the airport to depart for Shangombo where he was to officially commission the newly built district hospital.
The President spent less than half an hour at the construction site but managed to plant a tree at the same place together with a few ministers and a Barotse Royal Establishment (BRE) representative.
He did not even unveil the plaque with inscriptions about him launching the ground breaking ceremony for the construction of the stadium.
Zesco United coach Tenant Chembo says he is banking on his striking triumvirate of Patrick Kabamba, Lottie Phiri and Winston Kalengo to bring the results this season.
The trio looked on fire last Saturday in Zesco’s 2-0 home win over troubled Napsa Stars at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola.
Kalengo and Phiri were on target while Kabamba was instrumental in both goals on their way to collecting their second league win of the season.
“God willing if they are healthy and injury free they will do us a World of good because we played a three striker combination,” Chembo said.
“It looks good and we hope they carry forward for the rest of the season.”
His attacking trio will face its biggest test on Saturday when they host Power Dynamos at the Trade Fair Grounds in Ndola.
Chembo will be banking on the trio to help end Zesco’s five-match winless run against Power stretching back to 2010.
Power have won three and drawn two league meetings in a roll in three seasons over Zesco.
However, Power’s attack has been misfiring and has won just one league game way back on March 16 after a promising start that included a 2-1 win over Zanaco in the Charity Shield final on March 9.
Meanwhile, Zesco will be play their league game at the Trade Fair grounds due to an athletics event on the same date at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium which has been their home ground since 2012.
