Sata Directs GBM To Find Solution To Issues In Western province
President Michael Sata has directed Defence Minister Geoffrey Mwamba and his Home Affairs counterpart Kennedy Sakeni to quickly find an amicable solution to activities in Western Province and traditional wrangle in Chinsali district of Muchinga Province.
And President Sata has further directed the defense forces to join him in the crusade against corruption by ensuring that there is transparency and accountability in the use of resources that government allocates to them.
President Sata said he is disappointed as Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces with the laxity and inertia by the defense and security wings to deal firmly with disgruntled elements in Western Province who he said, have reportedly appointed a Prime Minister to govern the area as an independent state.
ZANIS reports that Mr. Sata expressed his displeasure at the unfolding events in Western Province and what he termed lack of seriousness in the investigative wings of government whom he said were fully aware of the illegal activities but decided to turn a blind eye.
The President disclosed this during the commissioning parade of 164 Officer Cadets of Intake 22 of 2011 held at Military Establishment of Zambia (MILTEZ) in Kabwe today.
He implored the two ministries to be proactive and utilize their joint operations meetings to share strategies that will ensure peace without resorting to bloodshed.
President Sata also took a swipe at recalled Zambia’s High Commissioner to Canada and MMD aspiring presidential candidate Nevers Mumba for allegedly spreading falsehoods on the Copperbelt Province on the constitution-making process by the committee of experts.
Mr. Sata disclosed that Dr. Mumba and other members of the clergy on the Copperbelt are allegedly deceiving people that the Committee of Experts on the new constitution intends to remove the Clause on the declaration of Zambia as a Christian Nation in the new constitution.
He added that Dr. Mumba and other bishops are also allegedly cheating Zambians that the Patriotic Front (PF) government intends to introduce homosexuality in the new constitution.
Earlier, Zambia Army Commander, Lt. General Paul Mihova told President Sata that the Officer Cadets were fully equipped to undertake any assignments that will contribute to national development.
Lt. Gen. Mihova said the officer cadets were professionals and will remain non partisan in their execution of duty by supporting the government of the day and upholding the constitution of the land.
164 Officer Cadets drawn from the Zambia Army and Office of the President Special Division were today successfully commissioned by President Sata at MILTEZ in Kabwe.

Jim it shows in mature and foolishness to address your fellow human beings as dogs. I think you were brought up in a shanty compound and you trying display your shanty manners. Be polite and deplomatic in what you say otherewise to me your comment is tantamount to displaying your ignorance and folishness at the same time.

Lozis are just one tribe and they are 71 other tribes that live in Zambia.
The lozi now live in other parts of zambia and have been educated by the taxpayers money from the other 71 tribes of zambia .
They do business and own properties mainly in other parts of zambia and not in mongu senanaga or sesheke.
The lozi chief is not superior to other chiefs in Zambia.Did he consult other chies when he was claiming to own land belonging to other chiefs?that was an act of corruption and land laundering or indeed theft of the highest order.
So then if someone steals or a tribe steals then they must be arrested. Mulandu siwuola.
Viva Zmbia abash thieves.

those of us who grew up in the Kaunda era did not practice tribalism I really dont understand what is happening to the new generation I was once a “proud patriotic Zambian” but am having second thoughts at the moment Kaunda really preached one Zambia one nation slogan and it worked please Zambians let us love one Another as a family
