Speaking when he featured on Phoenix FM`S Let the People Programme, Dr Musokotwane says the revenue that government is collecting is inadequate to pay salaries for public workers, finance public projects and repay debt, a situation he says will lead to more borrowing. Dr. Musokotwane has further stated that some debts will also be paid by borrowed money because more than 40 percent of the 2021 budget will be financed by borrowed money which he says will ultimately increase the country`s debt levels. Meanwhile, Dr. Musokotwane says the current economic crises is a direct consequence of the over borrowing by government and not the impact of covid-19. Dr Musokotwane has indicated that contrary to assertions by some sections of society that Covd-19 has led to the current economic crisis, the major cause of the current situation is debt servicing. African island states launch joint Finance Minister Dr. Bwalya Ng’andu last Friday unveiled a K119.6 Billion 2021 national with more than K27 Billion of medicines procurement initiative the amount due to be spent on servicing Zambia’s external debt.

  • La JSK Veut S'imposer À Sétif Pour Conforter Sa 2E Place
    Sport / Sports Après avoir réussi une série impressionnante de six victoires consécutives La JSK veut s’imposer à Sétif pour conforter sa 2e place ©Libe rté De nombreux supporters de la JS Kabylie, mais aussi les dirigeants du club kabyle, auront suivi, avec une attention particulière, le déroulement du match en retard JS Saoura-CR Belouizdad d’avant-hier soir à travers la retransmission en direct de la Radio nationale. Et s’ils ont été tenus en haleine pendant quatre-vingt-dix minutes, le score blanc (0-0) qui a sanctionné ce match tant attendu aura comblé tout l’entourage du club kabyle. Et pour cause, les Canaris occupent désormais seuls la seconde place du championnat, qualificative, comme on le sait pour la prochaine Ligue des champions puisqu’ils comptent un point d’avance sur le DRB Tadjenanet, deux points sur la JS Saoura et trois points sur le CRB. C’est dire que les poulains de Kamel Mouassa ont encore augmenté leurs chances de conforter cette place au classement général et postuler au titre honorifique de vice-champion d’Algérie, mais surtout de glaner, à la surprise générale, une qualification pour la prochaine Ligue des champions. Mais voilà que ce n’est pas encore gagné car dans tous les cas de figure, il va falloir gagner demain à Sétif où il n’est pas toujours aisé de s’imposer contre les “Aigles noirs des Hauts-Plateaux” qui, eux, totalisent 40 points et rêvent aussi d’une place sur le podium. Certes, l’Entente est surtout préoccupée par les poules de la Ligue des champions africaine et a dû ménager, ces derniers jours, de nombreux joueurs titulaires, mais tout l’effectif sétifien a été rappelé cette semaine pour préparer le match tant attendu contre la JS Kabylie.

  • Passeport Pour La CAN 2012 Xxviiie COUPE D'afrique DES NATIONS DE FOOTBALL Gabon & Guinée Équatoriale 21 Janvier
    Passeport pour la CAN 2012 XXVIIIe COUPE D’AFRIQUE DES NATIONS DE FOOTBALL Gabon & Guinée Équatoriale 21 janvier – 12 février 2012 Ré alisé par Rfi Multimedia 1 INTRODUCTION La CAN se déroule pour la deuxième fois seulement de son histoire en Afrique centrale. Quarante ans après l’édition 1972 au Cameroun, le Gabon et la Guinée équatoriale coorganisent la plus grande manifestation sportive du continent. Contrairement à la CAN 2000 au Nigeria et au Ghana, c’est un mariage de raison qui rassemble Gabonais et Equato-Guinéens. Les deux Fédérations de football ont uni leurs forces pour cette occasion. Le pari est difficile mais il est beau car cette CAN 2012 s’annonce palpitante. Pour la première fois depuis la CAN 1996 et le forfait de la sélection nigériane, le vainqueur est absent lors de la phase finale suivante. Les Pharaons d’Egypte, malgré leurs sept sacres, n’ont pas franchi les éliminatoires, comme les Camerounais (4 trophées), les Nigérians (2 trophées), les Léopards de RD Congo (2) et les Algériens (1). Les équipes du Ghana et de la Côte d’Ivoire, présentes lors de la Coupe du monde 2010, seront donc les favorites du tournoi. Il faudra aussi compter avec le Sénégal et le Maroc qui reviennent fort après avoir manqué la Coupe d’Afrique 2010. Cette toute dernière CAN disputée une année paire permettra aussi au grand public, de découvrir de nouveaux joueurs. Les Botswanais, les Equato-Guinéens et les Nigériens feront leurs tous premiers pas dans la compétition. Souhaitons-leur que cette 28e édition ressemble plus à la très belle CAN 2008 qu’à la décevante CAN 2010.
