Every journey begins with a single step. Before it is done, it is first a thought, then a plan, then action. Zambians can look forward to a diversified energy mix that is robust and climate resilient.

Our road to develop 1,000 MW over the next 12 months has begun, and with Chisamba's 100 MW in the bag, we have 900 to go.

Methodical kwenyulation.

THE Lusaka High Court has upheld the three year sentence imposed on businessman Francis Muchemwa, alias, commander II, who was second in command at Patriotic Front's Intercity Bus Terminus branch.

Three judges, who sat as an Economic and Financial Crimes Court, ruled that all the grounds of appeal failed, consequently confirming the jail term imposed on the convict.

He will continue serving the jail term imposed on him last year in July by Lusaka chief resident magistrate Davies Chibwili.

Muchemwa was jailed with hard labor for possessing properties worth K11.2 million, ruled to be proceeds of crime.

High Court Dismisses Charity Katanga’s Appeal - Three-Year Sentence to Commence Today

The Economic and Financial Crimes Division of the High Court has dismissed former Deputy Inspector-General of Police Charity Katanga’s appeal, upholding her February 2024 conviction, three-year sentence, and forfeiture of assets to the State. She is expected to begin serving her sentence today, with further details to follow.

CASE RECAP
Conviction & Sentence (Feb 19, 2024)-
Katanga was found guilty of possessing ten Higer buses valued at over K26 million which were deemed to be proceeds of crime under the Forfeiture of Proceeds of Crime Act. She was sentenced to three years’ imprisonment .

ASSET FORFEITURE (July 2, 2024)
Following her conviction, the Lusaka Subordinate Court ordered the forfeiture of the ten buses and K1,522,005.15 from her Chibeka Express Ltd account to the State, confirming these assets as tainted .

APPEAL THROWN OUT
The High Court has now dismissed her appeal, fully sustaining the original conviction, sentence, and forfeiture orders. Katanga will begin serving her three-year sentence as of today.

BACKGROUND
Between 2017 and 2022, Katanga used illicit funds to purchase luxury buses, far exceeding her reported earnings. Chief Resident Magistrate Davies Chibwili emphasised during the initial trial that her defence failed to explain the unexplained gap between her income and expenditure - a shortfall of over K18 million .

Her conviction sent strong waves across the public sector, serving as a stern reminder that those entrusted with law and order are not above accountability .

WHAT’S NEXT?
Katanga is expected to report to the correctional facility today to begin serving her sentence. Additional updates and reaction statements will be released as they become available.

Stay tuned for further coverage, including legal analyses and implications for anti-corruption efforts in Zambia.

Application for ZNS voluntary skills training opens in July as Defence secures funding

THE Ministry of Defence has received over K17 million to launch the Zambia National Service (ZNS) Voluntary Skills Training Programme, an initiative aimed at empowering youths across the country.

The funding fulfills President Hakainde Hichilema's directive to revive the programme, which was discontinued decades ago.

Ministry of Defence (MoD) Permanent Secretary Maambo Haamaundu confirmed the release of the funds and outlined the programme's initial phase.

He stated that the first cohort will include seven youths from each of Zambia's 156 constituencies, ensuring broad national representation.

Applications for the programme are set to open in July 2025, with selections expected to be finalised by the end of the same month.

MHaamaundu emphasised that the ZNS Voluntary Skills Training Programme is designed to equip young people with entrepreneurial skills, enabling them to become self-reliant and create their own employment opportunities.

"President Hichilema wants this training to benefit the youths who need to create jobs for themselves," Haamaundu said.

MoD principal public relations officer Paul Shalala underscores the programme's focus on job creation and economic empowerment.

He stated that successful applicants will receive training at ZNS Skills Centers located in the Eastern, Copperbelt, and Northern Provinces

A BREATH OF LIFE FOR MUCHINGA!
CHINSALI GENERAL HOSPITAL COMMISSIONS STATE-OF-THE-ART OXYGEN PLANT

With joy and pride, the Ministry of Health today commissioned the fifth Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) Oxygen Plant at Chinsali General Hospital in Muchinga Province, marking another milestone in Zambia’s journey toward building a stronger, more resilient health system.

The oxygen plant is part of a broader national effort to decentralize and strengthen access to lifesaving medical oxygen, especially in rural and high-demand settings. It has the capacity to fill 120 cylinders per day, supporting emergency and routine care across the province.

Speaking at the commissioning, the Honourable Minister of Health expressed deep appreciation for the strategic collaboration between the Government of Zambia, the United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS), and the Global Fund.

“This facility is more than just a technological advancement, it’s a symbol of the visionary leadership of His Excellency President Hakainde Hichilema, and our shared commitment to safeguarding the lives of our people,” the Minister said.

Since 2003, Zambia’s partnership with the Global Fund has brought in a total of USD 1.8 billion in health support. A new grant of USD 349 million will help scale up interventions to fight HIV, TB, and Malaria between 2024 and 2026.
But the story doesn’t stop there!

The plant is equipped with programmable logic control systems, allowing engineers to detect faults and respond in real time, ensuring continuous and efficient oxygen delivery. The Ministry is also investing in training biomedical engineers and developing a strong maintenance ecosystem to ensure long-term sustainability.

This facility is the fifth to be commissioned, following plants at:
1. National Heart Hospital (Lusaka)
2. Kalindawalo General Hospital
3. Kasama General Hospital
4. Kabwe Central Hospital

An additional plant is set to be commissioned at St. Paul’s Mission Hospital, bringing the total investment to USD 10.48 million. Each site is supported with backup generators, oxygen delivery trucks, boosters, and other critical equipment.

This achievement is part of the National Medical Oxygen Strategic Plan 2022–2026, developed in partnership with the World Bank, UNICEF, PATH, Clinton Health Access Initiative, CHAZ, and others.

From just six functional oxygen plants in 2021, Zambia now boasts 35 PSA plants, two completed bulk liquid oxygen tanks (Levy Mwanawasa and Livingstone Teaching Hospitals), and two more near completion at Ndola and Kitwe Teaching Hospitals.

The Global Fund’s emergency response support during that time helped save lives and laid the foundation for the system we are building today.

Let us celebrate this achievement. Let us nurture our partnerships. And let us continue working together for a healthier Zambia.

THE DEFERRAL OF BILL NO. 7 FOR FURTHER CONSULTATION AND CONSENSUS

By Shamoba

Following careful engagement and consultation with various stakeholders, I wish to confirm that Bill No. 7 of 2024 has been officially deferred to allow for broader national dialogue and consensus-building.

This development follows agreement between His Excellency President Hakainde Hichilema and the Constitutional Court to give more space for public participation in the legislative process. The deferral reflects a firm commitment by the Head of State and the Judiciary to uphold constitutional integrity, transparency, and inclusive governance.

Bill No. 7 contains provisions of national importance. As such, it is only right that every Zambian voice is heard and respected. The President remains deeply committed to a Zambia where governance is people-driven and constitutionally grounded.

In the coming days, mechanisms will be put in place to facilitate wide consultations involving civic organizations, political stakeholders, the church, traditional leadership, the youth, and the general public.

This is not a setback—but a reaffirmation of democratic values. The deferral will ensure that when Bill No. 7 returns to Parliament, it will do so with the strength of national consensus behind it.

Let this moment remind us that dialogue is not weakness—it is strength. Let us rise above division and approach this opportunity with patriotism, unity, and purpose.

FAKE PROPHETS AND FALSE PROPHECIES on Edgar Chagwa Lungu , Hakainde Hichilema and ZAMBIA

In recent days, our beloved nation has been shaken by a surge of false prophecies from self-proclaimed prophets, many of whom originate from countries with histories of instability and conflict—unlike Zambia, a country that has enjoyed decades of peace and democratic governance.

It is with great concern that we note the rise of misleading spiritual declarations regarding the death of Zambia’s former President, His Excellency Edgar Chagwa Lungu, and speculative pronouncements on the life and leadership of His Excellency President Hakainde Hichilema. These falsehoods are not only harmful, but they also show profound disrespect to the grieving families and the nation as a whole.

Zambia is a Christian nation, and while we respect spiritual matters, we must not allow charlatans to use the name of God to mislead citizens for fame, influence, or personal gain. The passing of former President Lungu is a time of national mourning, not a stage for false prophets seeking attention.

It is deeply regrettable to see some of our own citizens—both men and women—being led astray by such individuals. We urge all Zambians to exercise discernment, respect the departed, and come together in unity during this difficult time.

All that the people of Zambia want is to see their former President laid to rest in peace, in the land he loved and served. We must honour his legacy with dignity and truth, not confusion and division.

Let this be a time to reaffirm our values, reject deception, and promote unity. In times of loss, a nation must stand as one.

One Zambia, One Nation.
