TIZ executive director Maurice Nyambe
TRANSPARENCY International Zambia has urged President Edgar Lungu to suspend Minister of Health Dr Chitalu Chilufya and both his permanent secretaries in order to pave way for an independent investigation into issues raised in the Auditor General’s report.
In a statement, Thursday, TI-Z executive director Morris Nyambe said the President should also consider constituting a commission of inquiry to get to the bottom of the scandals and recommend that all officials implicated face punitive action, including prosecution where necessary.
“Transparency International Zambia (TI-Z) is appalled by revelations made during the appearance of the Ministry of Health, Zambia Medicines Regulatory Authority (ZAMRA), Medical Stores Limited (MSL), Zambia Bureau of Standards (ZABS) and Honeybee Pharmacy Limited, before the Parliamentary Public Accounts Committee (PAC) on Tuesday 5th and Wednesday 6th January 2021.

Class of 2020: Zambians who inspired last year – Zambia: News Diggers!

Musa Mwenye
Across 2020, Zambia experienced no shortage of disappointments and setbacks. Yet there are some individuals whose courage and principles made them inspiring figures in the political landscape last year. In this article and the next, I list two sets of citizens of 2020: those who through their actions offered hope to Zambians and those who were huge disappointments. Today, I focus on those Zambians who inspired public trust. Next week, it will be the turn of the individuals and institutions who disappointed.
The heroes
Zambia suffers from a deficit of genuine, consistent heroes. Perhaps there are many unsung heroes whose quiet and diligent work in our own communities goes unnoticed. I apologise for overlooking them in this article. The people I discuss below are drawn from those in public life whose actions are reported in the mainstream media – those who try to contribute positively to our political life and are willing to risk the ire and repression o ....

TRANSPARENCY International Zambia (TIZ) says it is worrying and unfortunate that senior officials of the ruling Patriotic Front are seemingly embroiled in scandals.
Yesterday, Patriotic Front Eastern Province chairman Andrew Lubusha appeared for interrogations at Force Headquarters in connection with the theft of a South African truck, a matter that is under INTERPOL investigations.
But Lubusha denied stealing the truck, saying he was a victim of fake propaganda orchestrated by Emmanuel Jay Jay Banda and other members of his party. ....

ZESCO Limited’s failure to explain why it needs to acquire a €1.7 billion loan, translating to around K45 billion, remains suspicious, says Transparency International Zambia (TI-Z).
And former finance minister Dr Situmbeko Musokotwane says Zesco’s decision to acquire the unexplained €1.7 billion loan may cost Zambia’s chance for an International Monetary Fund (IMF) bailout package.
Last week, an investigation by News Diggers! indicated that Zesco was seeking an unprecedented €1.78 billion loan from suspicious unlicensed and unregulated lenders based in Bosnia, Italy and Thailand, and Zesco hadfailed to explain the purpose of the loan to-date. ....
