Miles Sampa’s Challenge to Edgar Lungu Over “Alebwelelapo” Project Escalates Tensions In PFns in O

The political landscape in Zambia continues to be marked by dramatic twists and turns as former Lusaka Mayor, Miles Sampa, issued a direct challenge to former President Edgar Lungu, urging him to reconsider his “Alebwelelapo” project.

Sampa’s provocative question, “What are you going to do that you didn’t do in seven years?” has added another layer of complexity to the ongoing political saga.

Miles Sampa publicly challenged Edgar Lungu’s “Alebwelelapo” project, raising questions about its objectives and feasibility.

In response earlier in the week the Patriotic Front (PF) in Matero Constituency and the 5 PF councillors in the area petitioned the Central Committee to expel Matero member of Parliament Miles Sampa from the party.
Speaking at the PF Secretariat on Wednesday some of the speakers denounced the Matero law maker as being a non entity in politics.The function was also attended by former PF General secretary Davis Mwila and newly appointed PF (GS) Raphael Nakachinda members of the central committee and party structures.

The UPND has challenged PF to expel Miles Sampa to facilitate a by elections. However, under the new constitution, an expelled MP becomes independent MP without the need for the costly by elections. Unless he is convicted, all MPs are entitled to a full term or until the next general elections.

SO, HH WAS UPSET, BUT HE IS RIGHT TO BE UPSET OVER THE PRICING OF KKIA BECAUSE HE IS THE ONE FEELING THE HEAT OVER THESE LOANS.

By Dr Nevers Mumba

I have taken note of the comments on social media regarding KKIA, particularly on my two posts around the subject.

I would like to comment to the many who expressed the view that the President has no right to condemn the Airport and call it a “sausage” because he uses the Airport and has been enjoying that usage, and some have gone on further to say “let him build his own airport.”

My short comment is that the President is an Accountant and Econimist, He understands the concept of a “GOING CONCERN” which Zambia as a nation is. Although the deal for KKIA was entered into by the PF Government, it was structured in such a way that it was build using Loans which would only be paid for by a subsequent government.

Many people do not understand that it is not the PF that paid for that Airport. Most likely, it is the UPND government that are going to have to pay for the two loans that were used to construct the Airport at an exorbitant cost of almost 400 million Dollars, instead of 150 million Dollars.

In other words, Yes the sausage is nice, and, Yes it is fresh, but it was it really worth buying at that price? In your own homes, can you tolerate a situation where you keep paying for 2Kg Sausage for the next 3 months simply because the person tasked to buy the sausage actually got it on credit from the grocery store were they agreed to pay for it at K200 per Kg, way beyond the normal price of about K70 per Kg? How would you behave if it were your house and you now have to choose between paying for school supplies and the sausage, and you can’t because the owners of the sausage want their money?

Remember that this government is in a hurry to deal with the issues of National Debt, in order to allow them to finally move to more pertinent issues like the cost of living, and particularly the prices of Milie Meal, Fuel and the exchange Rate.

As long as we keep paying for these expensive “Sausages”, it will take us a very long time to get down to the things that the masses want the government to deal with such as reducing the price of Milie Meal and other essentials.

KENNETH KAUNDA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IS JUST A SAUSAGE – HICHILEMA

PRESIDENT Hakainde Hichilema says he is not afraid of being thrown out of office.

And President Hichilema says the “sausage” Kenneth Kaunda International Airport cost $400 million when it could have easily cost only $150 million.

Meanwhile, the Head of State says now that money has been decentralised away from Lusaka where the big thieves live, accountants now need to check on the small thieves living in rural areas.

Speaking in Livingstone at the Pre-Zambia Institute of Chartered Accountants Annual General Meeting Workshop, Wednesday, President Hichilema said he would gladly go and look after his goats once his term in office came to an end.

By Merlyn Mwanza

FDD leader Edith Nawakwi has accused President Hakainde Hichilema and those in the UPND of attempting to wash their dirt on her, following her being warned and cautioned for allegedly abducting and threatening violence on the Hatembos

Nawakwi said she availed herself to police today following persistent call outs made to her and was warned that she on dates unknown but between September 2020 and January 2021she threatened violence contrary to the penal code section 90 and abductee Pheluna Hatembo and Hatembo and lodged them in different lodges against their will and have since filed the complaint of threatening violence and abduction.

She said she was asked if she had anything to say but explained that at present she has nothing to say unless they go to court where she will have “mountains to say”, because the genesis of the Pheluna story was in public domain, with the players and beneficiaries of the Kalomo land being the President himself.

Nawakwi claimed that the President knows what he did, saying she came into the picture because of the issues of LIMA bank, for which she had gone to Kalomo to look for LIMA bank properties which were in private hands and that’s how she got in touch with the Hatembos, saying she was preparing her defence case of her having allegedly defamed Hakainde Hichilema.

She said she was looking forward to Hichilema prosecuting his case as she would have asked him pertinent questions, but decided against doing that since as President he cannot prosecute private citizens but that in between that she has received threats, for stating that the last people who had custody of the Hatembos were UPND themselves.

“I am actually elated that even though the President dropped his case on defamation, he has opted indirectly through Pheluna and Milton to be in court. So we will meet each other in court and I hope that they have their defence,” Nawakwi said. “I hope this time they won’t be talking of the nolles. I don’t want a nolle, let the police take this matter to the DPP, proceed. If you are going to put a nolle, don’t even start because or won’t work.”

She said the matter was being resurrected because of her media statements.

“Hakainde Hichilema is such a person whose ego is larger than Zambia. And he thinks that he can shut everyone up because I mean let’s face it he can’t manage this country, he’s incompetent, he has no skill. He has no acumen of being a head of state. Nothing,” Nawakwi said, saying the President’s main preoccupation was about which next opposition leader he was going to inconvenience.

She said the only reason President Hichilema was behind this “hoax” was because he was just scared of his shadow.

“And this is the nature of the men who are not fulfilled in life. He thinks that being President is the best thing and all of us must shut up and start clapping for him. Some of us can’t. He comes from Bweengwa. He was brought up in a village he needs to understand that his duty is to the village. To the people on the streets. To the hunger that has befallen this country, unprecedented suffering,” Nawakwi said.

She urged Zambians to rise up and start a movement to get “Hakainde out of office.”

“And that movement should be very serious. It requires sacrifice. It requires dedication. It requires service to the nation,” Nawakwi said, accusing President Hichilema of reintroducing colonialism as now State House was being populated by foreigners.

She said security was in the food, but this is the President who “everyone” is saying they were tired of, claiming that the people were saying he was fake and that he must go.

“Zambians must realise that voting for Hakainde is Zambia’s worst mistake, because this President will not take us anywhere,” Nawakwi said.

She said the case involving the Hatembos was about the alleged fraudulent acquisition of farm number 1724 in Kalomo, which belonged to the late Hatembo, the father to Pheluna and that Pheluna was in fact the administrator and she argued at the time that she had never met President Hichilema and neither signed any contract with him and that the next complaint was about a missing person where her daughters went to police and filed a complaint of missing person.

Nawakwi said the other complaint was from Phelunas brother about a missing person and that the whole police department that was following up on the matter were fired.

“But now it’s like a situation in the village where people are sitting, there is a joke in the village where you are seated and you accuse children of doing something and as the youngest you simply accept,” said Nawakwi, adding that those in the UPND thought they could wash their dirt on her.

ZAMBIANS ARE BUYING MEALIE MEAL AT CORRECT PRICES – PS … confirms issuing permit to ZNS to export mmeal to Congo

By Patson Chilemba

Ministry of Agriculture permanent secretary Green Mbozi says the current price Zambians are buying the mealie meal at is the correct one, and that he expects the same high prices to be sustained, such that even a big yield from the coming rain season may not play much of a factor due to pressures from countries in the region.

And Mbozi said his Ministry issued the Zambia National Service (ZNS) with a permit to export “imported” mealie meal from South Africa, and that he is not the right person to answer over the fact that ZNS has now become a trading institution involved in imports and exports of maize to other countries.

Speaking with Daily Revelation, Mbozi was

asked on the ever skyrocketing prices of mealie meal which show no signs of abetting despite claimed interventions by the UPND administration to arrest the situation, Mbozi argued that Zambians are buying the mealie meal at the correct price, as government no longer subsidises the commodity.

He said his interest in the Ministry of Agriculture is to subsidise the farmers who produce the maize and questions about subsidising consumers should be referred to the relevant ministry.

Mbozi claimed that there was pressure on Zambian maize as other regional countries main source of maize was Ukraine and Russia, which countries are at war, saying the importing countries have now found Zambia as one of the sources of the commodity, and thereby putting pressure on the local stocks.

“Because of the high demand, the prices have gone up in the region, it’s not just in Zambia. In Malawi the price is even much higher than it is in Zambia,” Mbozi said. “When we were selling the mealie meal at less that K200, it’s because government, through the Food Reserve Agency were subsidising. We were selling the maize to the millers at K200 so at that point it was easier for our mealie meal to sell below K200 or just about K200.”

He said the government is now paying for the new maize at K280 per 50kg and therefore the price cannot remain at the same price, saying “that is now the correct price because the price which was obtaining about December, January, February, March, that was a subsidised price.”

He said since the subsidy has now been removed, the consumers were now paying the correct price.

But asked if there is any consideration to reintroduce subsidies since the main concern of any administration should be its people who are having to bear the huge cost of the staple food, Mbozi said he deals with the production side in the Ministry of Agriculture.

“If you want to talk about subsidies, I think I look at subsidising the producers, the farmers. For me I will talk about subsidising the inputs for production of the food,” Mbozi said. “So if you want to talk about providing for subsidies for consumers I think you are talking to the wrong person. You can go to the Ministry that is responsible for consumer welfare. Here I am looking at the welfare of farmers.”

Asked if there is any hope that prices will come down during the course of this year or the same pressures of high prices will continue, Mbozi said, “we cannot tell. I think this pressure will be sustained for quite some time to come.”

“It is possible yes, if for instance we are blessed with good rains, and if the way we have started now, if we deliver the inputs in good time and farmers do the correct husbandry and so forth. Then if we produce in abundance, it is possible yes, when you have produced in abundance for the prices to come down because it’s the question of there being excess supply over demand,” Mbozi said. “But of course what is at stake here also is the fact that I explained earlier, it’s not just the Zambian market, we are looking at the regional market. We are looking at Tanzanian, we are neighboring countries. You have heard that there are already buyers from Tanzania who are buying maize. I am told they are in fact not buying for food but they are buying for oil, crushing maize into oil and so forth. I don’t know how true that is but also looking for markets up north, the Kenyan market and also South Sudan … Rwanda which is also looking at the same market. We also have the Malawians who did not have a good season. So we have all these countries that are looking at the Zambian maize, so even if I were to assure you that yes we will produce a lot and the prices might come down but there are other pull factors from the neighboring countries which may not make it possible for the price to significantly come down. It might come down maybe in a small way but probably not as big as to bring the mealie meal prices where they were before.”

But put to him that it was the responsibility of government to put in place effective mechanisms to insulate the domestic market from the outside shocks to protect Zambian consumers first, Mbozi claimed that the country has right now not exported any of the production from the 3.3 millions metric tonnes.

But put to him that he was the one mentioning about the pressures from the outside, Mbozi said what brought problems was a situation where the government continued selling mealie meal at less than K200 when the same commodity was going at K500 in Congo.

“So everybody saw an opportunity to make business. They were coming to Zambia to buy cheaper mealie meal to go and sell the expensive mealie meal,” Mbozi said.

He said the minister of Defence even referred to it at one point as osmosis, moving from high concentration to low concentration.

“So that is what was happening. We had a lot of maize here and so it started obviously finding its way into the Congolese and other regional markets,” Mbozi said. “So what we are trying to do now, we are trying to say let’s use the correct price so that that movement across the borders is minimised. So what will be the economic advantage for anybody come and buy a bag of mealie meal in Zambia which is already costing us K250 if in Congo it’s costing at even K280? If you adds transport costs it doesn’t make any economic sense. So that’s the rationale behind what we are doing.”

Mbozi said the conditions that were prevailing last year which he said have partly affected this year’s yield involved issues of climate change where rain started late, and at one point the rains disappeared and spoiled the crops, saying he does not not know if the same conditions will prevail in the coming rainfall season.

He said assuming they do, chances of going through what the country has experienced are quite high, but that the administration does not envisage that as it is also trying to get people with irrigation facilities to supplement if the rains were to abruptly go.

“But also we hope to make gains through the early supply of inputs so that farmers plant early. And if they plant early the production per hectare are likely to be much better than we had this year. This year our yield were about 1.72 per hectare,” Mbozi said

THE STORY OF KOPALA RICKMAN, From streets to riches

Should have been three (3) weeks ago when I received several notifications of people tagging me into the Kopala Richman post where he said he will buy my books at K200, 000 each.

By then I just used to see him on several media platforms making headlines. After quick research, I got all the data I needed, and I knew he was not a rich kid, but I accepted to go and meet him,
I met him and his manager with a deep curiosity about his background, the man narrated how the boy a few years ago used to be in the streets, unkempt dressed in rags ever begging for coins and food staffs.

Inspired by Grand Ps rise to star Dom, his manager approached Rodgers Musonda’s (Kopala Richman) family and learnt that his dad passed away and the mother didn’t have the capacity to groom him and hence used to stay at the grand mother’s place.
Both the grand mother and mother accepted the vision to build the Kopala Richman’s brand and that is how he was removed from the streets and permission to take care of him was granted!

After several investments in him, the brand blew up and they had to relocate to Lusaka to push for more marketing deals! It became so real that ONLY those who knew him from the streets could tell that he wasn’t rich at all.
Truth be told, his manager is a real branding genius because almost everyone thought this kid is rich even in real life!

Everything has always been provided for him, the boy has many expensive suits, tailored for him, he is always moving in nice cars, met celebrities, politicians, and public figures he probably would have never met in his life.
The manager gave him a free identity and he was spending nights in a good house feasting on assorted foods of his own choice.

Support and constant communication was ever ongoing to him and his family. The boy has never seen the walls of a classroom and yet the qualified teacher to teach him was secured to be giving him private lessons.
As the saying goes, ‘you can take a person out of the street, but you can’t take the street out of the person.’

He became so famous that he could not play and interact with others freely without attracting a crowd, he started missing his old life! On Sunday around 21hrs he left the house dressed in a short and managed to hide himself in a truck even without the driver’s knowledge enroute to Kitwe.

Meanwhile his manager got so stressed thinking the boy is lost and kept on calling the grandmother if at all the boy went back home to no avail until people spotted him in Kitwe,

This makes me wonder, should the boy be allowed back in the streets because that’s inevitable once allowed to go his own ways, or should they forge ahead and rebrand him into a better person?
What do you all think of this Kopala Richman issue?
Whatever the management shall do, may it be in the best interest of the boy and his future!

LOADSHEDDING TO REDUCE TODAY – ENERGY MINISTER

MAAMBA – Maamba Collieries Limited will be back online tomorrow and it will start feeding into the national grid.

This is after the new dawn government intervened to have the scheduled maintenance period reduced in order to help reduce load-shedding.

As of today, stabilization tests are ongoing though the generator is now ready to be put into servicing the national grid.

We expect Maamba to be back on the grid tomorrow. ZESCO will confirm the timings tomorrow.

The 150MW generator at Maamba Collieries Limited was removed from feeding into the national grid due to scheduled annual maintenance and was to be serviced from 4th January 2023 to about 20th January 2023.

Yours in national service,

Hon. Eng. Peter Chibwe Kapala

LUSAMBO READY TO WORK WITH NEW DAWN GOVT

Former Kabushi Member of Parliament Bowman Lusambo says he is ready to work with the UPND government to help address challenges the country is currently facing such as corruption, load shedding and high cost of living.

Addressing the media at his residence in Lusaka this morning, Mr. Lusambo says the challenges the country is currently facing require concerted efforts from various stakeholders regardless of people`s political affiliation.

Mr. Lusambo has since advised President Hakainde Hichilema that solutions to most of these challenges can be found with having close relationships with Russia and China due to their big economies.

The former lawmaker says there is need for politicians to stop the blame game and focus on finding solutions to the various challenges citizens are facing, and is hopeful that the new dawn government will this year focus on putting in place and implementing strategies that will benefit Zambians.
