PATRIOTIC Front secretary general Davies Mwila has warned district commissioners that are not willing to work with the PF administration that they risk losing their jobs.
And PF Central Province chairman Chanda Mutale says district commissioners in the region are not contributing to the growth of the party.
Speaking when he officially launched the Central Province PF mobilisation in Kapiri Mposhi on Sunday afternoon, Mwila said district commissioners were appointed at the recommendation of district and provincial party officials.
He said the top leadership reserved the right to terminate contracts for district commissioners that were not willing to work with the ruling party.
Mwila said district commissioners were appointed at the discretion of the Head of State hence the need for them to pay allegiance to the appointing authority.
He said it was important for district commissioners to remember where they came from.
Mwila further called for intensified party mobilisation.
And Mutale, the Chitambo PF lawmaker, informed Mwila that some district commissioners in Central Province were not adding value to the party.
“Sir, I would like to report to you that some of the district commissioners in Central Province are not willing to contribute to the well-being of the party. Some of these district commissioners have grown wings and are even going to an extent of holding meetings where they are discussing the party, but are not willing to make any financial contribution to the party,” he said. “Most of these district commissioners have been a let down and are posing a big challenge to the growth of party.”
And Mutale disclosed that the ruling party’s Central Province executive committee had resolved to dissolve the PF Mumbwa Constituency executive committee.
He explained that the decision to dissolve the Mumbwa Constituency executive committee was arrived at after an evaluation undertaken by the Central Province executive committee.
Mutale added that there was need for PF members to maintain high levels of discipline in the discharge of their duties.
PF Central Province information and publicity secretary Davies Chisopa called for unity of purpose among part members.
