The Food Reserve Agency, FRA, will only purchase 32,900 x 50 Kilogramme bags of maize out of the over 112,000 bags projected production for the district.

Acting District Agriculture Coordinator, DACO, Ng’onga Musonda, confirmed this at the District Development Coordinating Committee, DDCC, held at the council chambers yesterday.

Mr Musonda said the FRA has indicated that it will only purchase 32,900 bags of maize and that over 60 per cent of the commodity will not be bought as it is not budgeted for by the agency.

He was, however, quick to note that his office is trying to look for the market for the maize that the FRA will not purchase.

And Mr Musonda explained that efforts are being made to pursue the FRA on the possibility of increasing the amount of maize to be bought from farmers in the district.

And some members of the DDCC told ZANIS in a separate interview that the decision by the agency to reduce the amount of maize it is butying from farmers, would force most farmers to sell the grain to briefcase businessmen.

And Kawambwa district still has 11,435 bags of maize that was produced in the 2007/2008 farming season.

And more than Eight thousand empty grain bags belonging to the Food Reserve Agency, FRA, valued at K14 million are missing at Solwezi FRA Depot.

North Western Police Commanding Officer, Fabian Katiba, confirmed to ZANIS that a total 8,299 empty grain bags valued at K14.4 million have been reported missing from the FRA depot.

Mr Katiba disclosed that Police has, however, received reports of suspected FRA empty grain bags being sold at a local black market.

Mr Katiba said Police were holding three FRA employees to help with investigations.

The Police chief added that one bale containing 500 empty grain bags has since been recovered from one of the suspects.

Meanwhile, FRA authorities in Solwezi said they had noticed a presence of Beige FRA printed empty grain bags on the markets in Solwezi, and they suspect they were illegally taken from the warehouse.

FRA authorities have since requested for assistance in establishing the source of bags sold on the black market.

The Center for Elections and Governance (CEG) Zambia has welcomed government’s decision to close Alliance University College of Ndola.

CEG Zambia Trustee Gershom Musonda said the country’s education system is being weakened by sub-standard education services by the private sector.

Mr. Musonda said this in a statement released to ZANIS in Lusaka today.

Mr. Musonda observed that some private colleges and universities in the country were offering low quality education and poor infrastructure.

He also charged that the caliber of lecturers and graduates is weak to benefit Zambia’s development process.

Mr. Musonda added that the private education sector is taking advantage of desperate school leavers who want to further their education.

He however expressed sadness that Alliance University College was allowed to start operations and continued to offer poor education standards with the knowledge of education authorities in Ndola.

Mr. Musonda also blamed the Provincial Education Officer for allegedly allowing the institution to exist.

The CEG Trustee has further asked government to refund the students who were affected by the closure.

He commended Copper belt Provincial Minister Mwansa Mbulakulima for taking action to close the school.

editor

The National Water Supply and Sanitation Council (NWASCO) has directed the Lusaka Water and Sewerage Company (LWSC) to exempt from paying new water tariffs, customers that received water for less than guaranteed hours.

The directives come in the wake of findings that the LWSC has been providing water below the guaranteed service hours in some areas within its jurisdiction.

NWASCO management says provision of water by Lusaka water and sewerage has not been done in good faith because it has consistently provided water below the guaranteed services hours in certain areas.

NWASCO Public Relations and Communications Officer Katendi Wandi disclosed this in press statement released to ZANIS in Lusaka today.

Ms. Wandi said water tariffs must be adjusted in areas where the guaranteed service was not provided.

She said the approved tariff was based on the said service level guarantee, which indicated that the Lusaka water utility company has not provided the tariff.

“In order to protect the customers from exploitation, NWASCO has directed that all customers receiving water supply for less than the guaranteed hours of supply and are on fixed tariff rate, will not be affected by the new approved tariff that is expected to be implemented by June 2008,” she said.

Ms Wandi explained that NWASCO would ensure that customers that were not getting water for the guaranteed hours were not affected by the new tariff until the time the water regulatory body would be satisfied with the services of the LWSC.

The areas affected by the tariff sanction are Chilenje areas, Sanduluka, Burma, Mosi-O-Tunya and Muramba roads. Others are Garden site three and four and Lungu area.

She said NWASCO would continue with it’s inspections in order to isolate other areas that may be included in this tariff sanction.

She has since informed all customers to look out for the service level guarantee display that specified the service they should expect.

Celtel listing explained

Celtel Zambia Limited Finance Director Randell Hato says the over 20 percent that his company recently listed on the Lusaka Stock Exchange (LUSE) are in line with the Citizen Economic Empowerment Programme.

Mr. Hato said the share listing on the countrys only stock exchange market was also aimed at stimulating the stock exchange market.

He said this when he addressed some Celtel subscribers at the on going Euro Money Zambia Investment Conference in Lusaka yesterday.

He said the company also deliberately gave priority to individual Zambians, institutions and its employees before a few selected international investors as the share percentage listed was too big for the Zambian public only.

Mr. Hato said Celtel employees bought a total of 0.1 percent, while the Zambian public was allotted 3.4 percent with domestic institutions being allotted 6.3 percent and selected international investors carrying 10.2 percent.

And Mr. Hato has attributed the recent network problems most subscribers are facing to the relocation delays of the operation switch from the old Celtel premises to the new building.

He has however assured Zambians that the operation switch will be fixed by the end of this month adding that once it is fixed the situation will normalise.

Mr. Hato also revealed that his company is aiming at connecting 4.6 million subscribers on its network by 2011.

He added that the company has since launched a strategy to further penetrate the mobile service provision market by selling Celtel connected handsets at reduced prices to link more people on the network.

Mr. Hato said although his company has connected all the 72 districts in the country, it was also experiencing challenges to provide services as the country was vast.

There has been growing concern among Celtel subscribers in the country over the company’s failure to provide efficient services.

Zambia still affordable tourist destination – Kaingu

Government has urged stakeholders in the tourism industry to market Zambia to other countries in the world as an affordable tourist destination.

Tourism, Environment and Natural Resources Minister, Michael Kaingu, said the recently introduced visa fees on tourists from other countries would not make Zambia an expensive tourist destination.

Mr. Kaingu said this during a panel discussion at the Euromoney Zambia Investment conference, which closed in Lusaka today.

He asked the stakeholders to offer competitive prices for their products.

He argued that Zambia was an affordable tourist destination as it has a variety of unique tourism products that other countries did not have.

Mr. Kaingu noted that the money collected from charging visa fees was important to Zambia’s economy, saying it would be used to develop infrastructure, which was key to the industry.

He has since challenged entrepreneurs in the country to invest in the tourism industry by developing places with natural attractive features such as waterfalls.

And Zambia Wildlife Authority (ZAWA) Director General, Lewis Saiwana, has disclosed that the authority would soon begin to issue concessions in game reserve areas to interested investors in order to help develop the tourism industry.

Dr. Saiwana said the move would also help develop infrastructure such as roads in game management areas and make them accessible for game viewing by tourists.

He added that the move would also help protect game animals.

He further revealed that the concession agreements to willing investors would range from 10 to 20 years and a maximum of 35 years in special agreements.

The ZAWA Director General has since challenged Zambians to actively participate in the tourism industry instead of merely seeking jobs in it.

Meanwhile, Sun International Divisional Director, Graham Wood said there was an increase in air traffic to Livingstone city.

Mr. Wood said the increased air traffic was healthy for tourism activities in the tourist capital as it was the mainstay economic activity of the city.

The Euromoney Investment Conference attracted various business delegates from various countries and Zambian entrepreneurs.

He disclosed that his company would commit US$500, 000 to various social programmes in order to help alleviate poverty in the communities around Livingstone.

Mining Companies Suspend Projects due to High Taxes

Some mining companies in Zambia have suspended works on their expansion projects, because of alleged reduction in profits due to the newly introduced taxes in this year’s budget.

First Quantum Mining Country Manager, Chisanga Puta, cited his companies Mopani Copper mine and Kashime mine in Mkushi as some of the mines that have suspended projects.

He said over 4,500 job opportunities would have been created if these various projects were to be undertaken.

“About 600 jobs could have been created at Bwana Mkubwa mine, 2000 at Mopani on the construction of the shaft and 2000 more at Kashime whose investment ranges between US$150 million and $US200million,’ he said.

He said it has been difficult for his company to raise money for the construction of the roaster due to uncertainties in the mining sector following the introduction of the new taxes.

He stressed the taxes in the sector, including the new ones, which stand at 61 per cent, have left little money for reinvestment by companies.

Government this year introduced new tax regime in the mining sector that include a windfall tax of 25 per cent at the price of $US 2.50 per pound but below US$ 3.00 per pound.

It further increased the mineral loyalty tax from 0.6 per cent on the base metals to 6 per cent effective April 1, 2008.

However, due to the conducive environment for investment in the sector which has been caused by the raising of copper prices on the international market, Zambia has so far recorded about $US3billion investment.

He reiterated that the move by government to abolish the Development Agreement (DA) that was legally binding was a breach of the law.

Mr. Puta said the newly introduced taxes have dented the credibility of the country to the outside world.

He was speaking during a panel discussion on mining, which was held on alongside with the Euromoney Conference that closed in Lusaka today.

He said the mining companies were, from the onset, ready to negotiate with government on the new taxes.

Mr. Puta, however, stated that mining companies were still optimistic that an acceptable mining regime would be agreed upon with government in future.

Chamber of Mines Head, Fredrick Bantubonse, ruled out the possibility of mining companies to pull out following the new taxes.

He however said the reinvestments in the sector by companies would be difficult if no sufficient funds were left after paying the taxes.

Mr. Bantubonse said investors should be seen as partners in the development of the country.

But Managing Partner for Corpus Legal Practitioners, Elias Chipimo, stated that negotiations would have been ongoing if government did not take up the initiative to amend the mines and miners act.

At the same panel, Zambezi Resources Executive Chairman, Willie Sweta, said government and stakeholders should come up with a tax regime that would take into consideration both the needs of the investors and government.

Zambia Consolidated Copper Mines Investment Holdings (ZCCM IH) Chief Executive Officer, Joseph Chikolwa, advised mining companies that had problems with the new taxes to seek audience with government.

He said government was prompted to introduce new measures because of the failure by mining companies to declare dividends.

Sunzu together with his young brother Stopira, midfielder of Zanaco, will be one of two sibling pairing in this Zambia team for this weekends outing.

The other is the brothers Katongo; Christopher and Felix.

Meanwhile Faz has issued a statement in denying as lies media reports of some unidentified number of Zambia players where involved in an orgy of sex and beer last weekend at the teams training camp in Lusaka.

“It is unfortunate that some people bent on peddling unfounded and maliciously concocted fabrications are attempting to tarnish the name and imagine of our national team and disrupt the boys focus on the game this weekend in Mbabane,” the statement said.

“They are doing this by peddling a story that some of our boys are engaging in binge drinking and acts of prostitution at Ndeke Hotel (Where they are camped).

“None of the lies that have been broadcast of published relating to beer drinking and prostitution have anything to do with the Zambia national soccer team.”

Defence Minister George Mpombo has warned the people of Milanzi Constituency in Katete of Eastern Province not to be used as political ladders by selfish politicians who do not have the interest of the electorate at heart but their personal gains when voted into power.

Speaking at a meeting at Kalapula Village in Katete yesterday where he was drumming up support for the MMD candidate Reuben Banda in the June 26 Milanzi Constituency parliamentary by-election, Mr Mpombo warned the electorate not to vote for people who have failed them before when they were given the opportunity to be members of Parliament.

He observed that Milanzi constituency has remained underdeveloped because the constituency has stuck to the opposition which has failed to bring development to the area.

He assured them that the MMD government was ready to partner with the people of Milanzi in developing the area and that could only be done effectively if an MMD candidate was voted as MP.

The minister observed that an MMD MP would be their better and effective link to government in presenting their problems.

The Milanzi constituency seat fell vacant last year after the death of Dr Chosani Njovu of the United National Independence Party (UNIP.

Voting takes place on June 26.

Political parties contesting the election include the Movement for Multi-party Democracy (MMD), Patriotic Front (PF), United National Independence Party (UNIP), United Party for National Development (UPND) and the All People’s Congress party (APC).

Government says Zambia has not refused to host Zimbabwean victims of xenophobic attacks in South Africa but that it needed to be consulted and that adequate resources should be available to host more refugees.

Foreign Affairs Minister Kabinga Pande who is also Kasempa Member of Parliament described hosting of refugees as an expensive venture which required a lot of resources.

Mr. Pande explained that Zambia has hosted too many refugees than any other country in the region.

He explained that though Zambia has a responsibility under the United Nations to host refugees it also has the onus to look after them well.

Mr. Pande was answering a question from Rogers Chayanga in Mufumbwe today who wanted to know why the Zambian Government was refusing to host the Zimbabweans who had been displaced by xenophobic attacks in South Africa.

Meanwhile, Mr. Pande who is in Mufumbwe to meet Movement for Multi Party Democracy (MMD) party cadres and Civil Servants challenged the people of the district to be committed to fostering development in the area.

Mr. Pande who is also MMD Vice National Chairperson called on the party officials in Mufumbwe to work hand in hand with the Civil Servants in a bid to not only transform Mufumbwe but Zambia as a whole.
