    MONTHLY Socialist SOCIALISTPARTY ISSUE 10, APRIL/MAY 2021 A newsletter published by the Socialist Party, Lusaka, Zambia FREE OF CHARGE The August elections give us a chance to SocialistYou, staff reporter the poor, SOCIALIST Party president Fred M’membe change told a presentation of parliamentary and local government candidates that it was the majority who should be ruling Zambia. everything “Who are the majority in this country? They say democracy is majority rule. If it’s the poor who are the majority, why don’t they rule? This year, and build a you, the poor, should rule,” must rule he said. Dr M’membe was speaking more just at Kingfisher Garden Court in Lusaka at the unveiling cer- emony for 34 parliamentary and three local government and caring candidates. He asked them, “Was Jesus rich or poor? Were his society disciples rich or poor? When choosing a chief, did they choose the rich or the wise? yourselves “Does having money Fred M’membe says majority can end poverty amount to being wise? Is leadership about money?” Dr M’membe said that, for the most part, those who ruled lived well but those who were governed suffered, add- ing that the poor had not ruled Zambia since independence. “They use you like a ladder when climbing on to a wall and when they are at the top they drop the ladder,” he said. And he warned what would happen if the poor did not take control in the August elections this year. “If you, poor people, don’t rule, pov- erty will not end,” he said.

    Hipc Northern Province Report 1.0 Executive Summary

    HIPC NORTHERN PROVINCE REPORT 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The third tracking and monitoring visit to Northern Province started in June 2003 after the second visit to Lusaka Province of November 2002. A total of 80 projects were inspected and evaluated. This is more than 75% of the total number of projects funded from 2001, the beginning of HIPC disbursements for poverty reduction programmes. The Team flagged off the tracking and monitoring by first calling upon the Provincial Permanent Secretary’s Office and through that office requested for meetings with first the Provincial Heads of Government Departments to get an overview of the management of the HIPC funds and indeed the implementation of the projects and programmes. The Heads of Departments or their representatives shared their experiences with the Team and indeed made observations and recommendations on how best to enhance the management process of ensuring that the intended target population equitably benefited from the poverty reduction programmes financed by the HIPC funds. The Team also took opportunity of the meetings to once more emphasise on the need to promote transparency and accountability through the strict adherence to the HIPC Guidelines and indeed used the findings from the other provinces as cases for better management. At district level, the Team also called on the Offices of the District Administrators and had similar meetings with the District Heads of Government Departments like those held at the provincial level. Kaputa district was not visited as it was the Team’s view that the district was easier visited when inspecting and evaluating HIPC projects in Luapula Province.

  • Industrial Mineral Resources of Zambia

    Industrial Mineral Resources of Zambia Clive Mitchell, British Geological Survey, UK & Boniface Muibeya, Geological Survey Department, Zambia Abstract Zambia has for many years been heavily dependent upon the mining of copper which, combined with cobalt production, represents over 98% of mineral sales and 75% of export earnings (1997 figures). The industrial minerals industry within Zambia has therefore been inevitably tied to the fortunes of these two metals. The recent privatization, and break up, of ZCCM (Zambia Consolidated Copper Mines) has led to a resurgence in investment in the mining sector. Many analysts have predicted that there will be a positive effect on the Zambian economy, stimulating construction and infrastructure development and increasing the demand for industrial minerals. This paper summarises the available information on the industrial mineral resources of Zambia. Ten industrial minerals are described, with reference to some of the work carried out over recent years by the British Geological Survey, in conjunction with the Geological Survey Department of Zambia. Introduction Zambia is a landlocked country in central southern Africa which is bordered by Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo), Tanzania, Malawi, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Botswana and Namibia (Figure 1). It is a large country (752,614 km2) with a population of about 11 million people, mostly found within the urban centres of Lusaka, the Copperbelt, Kabwe, Kapiri Mposhi and Livingstone. Zambia is divided into nine provinces (Central, Copperbelt, Eastern, Luapula, Lusaka, North-Western, Northern, Southern and Western). It is dissected by four major river systems (Zambezi, Kafue, Luangwa and the Luapula). The road network is limited but well maintained between the main centres and there is a well-established infrastructure of domestic and international telecommunications.
