The Tendacy Of Rigging And Cheating Has Entered Zambian Blood System
Dear Editor,
Countries are ranked academically just like they are ranked economically.
The recent research has shown that Zambia is ranked 13, in the region out of the 15 countries in the region and that means we are the third last in the region –imagine!
Generally speaking, this is a threat to Zambians if some of you didn’t know. In fact any thing must be determined by its results-what do you think are some of the major results of this animal?
In the past Zambia used to be known on the academic basis, but today it’s a different story. The reason is very simple, the pupils, students, teachers and lecturers were very committed and they never encouraged cheating, rigging and leakage at large. The word leakage never used to be used and many thought there was no such a word, not that they were not good at dictionary but they took it to be a silent word.
Now this problem has come and is for us, then what should we do? What will you do with your students?, your pupils?, and so forth. Lecturers in colleges, teachers in schools and examiners where have you gone wrong? And what have you done? In Kunda language we say,”sima ikafuwa upuwa ni mtiko ukhala mukati”-that is to say when the nsima is not well cooked what to blame is the cooking stick.
To remind you one thing is that, because of this Zambians will have slim chances of working in other countries-we shall be considered not qualified despite the masters, degrees, diploma and certificates we have. We should stop KUZIGON’GA!!!
At this point I appeal to the Ministry of education and all educational inspectors to look into this matter seriously and carry proper observation to both private and public institution.

Powerful words my bro. People this should be taken seriously. 13 is not good enough for hardworking zedians. Government should also look on the expatriates they are bringing in our nation for the so called development. Some of the guys they are bringing are less qualified than me but check their salaries… Is it because of the same leakages???

Good article by a patriot, but as usual dependancy for solutions, is thrown at the govt. Please when you contribute so intelligently, try and propounded solutions as well. It is a known fact that with liberalization alot of ills came into play.this coupled with leaders with doubious academic papers, education standards fell to their lowest ebb. Talk of the Chiluba lost decade, where the general populace came to accept many social ills as normal. This pemeated into Mwanawasa who tried to fight but unfotunately died before peoples mindsets were normalized. Bwezani to as back to Chiluba’s level, now we are in dodrums, though with every Zambian committing themselves to zero corruption we could probably get somewhere with the new govt.

Look here my fellow humans, this whole thing is about money.
Elections are about whether you keep your job, keep the contracts with GRZ, keep your car, house and wife / husband, keep your freedom. Elections are a life and death issue. My life and your death!
You think politicians want your vote for the betterment of you and yours. if you do, then you need Jesus, because you’re way past reason.
As a politician I will, beg borrow, steal, loot, back stab, front stab, rape, bribe, threaten, ingratiate and do what i have to so that the election day is mine.
I will kill for money and authority. I will kill to get it and kill to keep it.
So what if I wear a suit and tie. that is but my parliamentary uniform.
Being a politician means I can and will f.ck your wife because she wants you to keep a job. I will f.ck your daughter too.
Being an elected politician is a licence to be god on earth. Who can stop you when you call yourself “honorable”!
You eat your manners and good governance. I will eat all the rest!
