  • CHAPTER 1 the SYSTEM of LAND ALIENATION Introduction Zambia Is
    CHAPTER 1 THE SYSTEM OF LAND ALIENATION Introduction Zambia is a landlocked country located in Southern Africa. It covers an area of about 752,614 square kilometres between latitudes 8 and 18 degrees South, and the longitudes 22 and 23 degrees East. A large part of the country is on the Central African plateau between 1000 meters, and 1600 meters above sea level. The system of land tenure in Zambia is based on statutory and customary law. Statutory law comprises rules and regulations which are written down, and codified. Customary law, on the other hand, is not written, but it is assumed that the rules and regulations under this system are well known to members of the community. Statutory law is premised on the English land tenure system, while customary tenure is essentially based on tribal law. Land in Zambia is administered through various statutes by established institutions in the country. 1 Land administration in general is a way and means by which land alienation and utilisation are managed. The process of land administration therefore, includes the regulating of land and property development, the use and conservation of the land, the gathering of revenue from the land through ground rent, consideration fees, survey fees, and registration fees; and the resolving of conflicts concerning the ownership and use of the land. 1 Functions of land administration may be divided into four components, namely: juridical, regulatory, fiscal and information management. 2 The juridical aspect places greatest emphasis on the acquisition and registration of rights in land. It comprises a series of processes concerned with the allocation of land through original grants from the President.

  • Zambia Edalina Rodrigues Sanches Zambia Became Increasingly
    Zambia Edalina Rodrigues Sanches Zambia became increasingly authoritarian under Patriotic Front (PF) President Edgar Lungu, who had been elected in a tightly contested presidential election in 2016. The runner-up, the United Party for National Development (UPND), engaged in a series of actions to challenge the validity of the results. The UPND saw 48 of its legislators suspended for boycotting Lungu’s state of the nation address and its leader, Hakainde Hichilema, was arrested on charges of treason after his motorcade allegedly blocked Lungu’s convoy. Independent media and civil society organisations were under pressure. A state of emergency was declared after several arson attacks. Lungu announced his intention to run in the 2021 elections and warned judges that blocking this would plunge the country into chaos. The economy performed better, underpinned by global economic recovery and higher demand for copper, the country’s key export. Stronger performance in the agricultural and mining sectors and higher electricity generation also contributed to the recovery. The Zambian kwacha stabilised against the dollar and inflation stood within the target. The cost of living increased. The country’s high risk of debt distress led the IMF to put off a $ 1.3 bn loan deal. China continued to play a pivotal role in Zambia’s economic development trajectory. New bilateral cooperation agreements were signed with Southern African countries. Domestic Politics The controversial results of the August 2016 presidential elections heightened political tensions for most of the year. Hakainde Hichilema, the UPND presidential candidate since 2006, saw the PF incumbent Lungu win the election by a narrow margin and subsequently contested the results, alleging that the vote was rigged.

For some, it was a word of encouragement; for others, it was the supply of the much- needed research materials; for some others, it was availability for personal interviews. As for Musale, my dear wife, she occupied a unique place in the entire research process. She was not only a source of emotional strength, she was also a source of intellectual balance as it was she who acted as my research assistant, always there to ensure that the books, newspaper cuttings, articles, interview notes and other research materials I needed were not misplaced. First and foremost, therefore, this work is dedicated to my loving wife. Second, I dedicate it to my mother who ensured, within the family’s meagre resources, that I would have a sound primary school education which has stood me in good stead up to the level of my secondary, my undergraduate and now my postgraduate studies. On a more academic level, my promoter, Prof. P J Fourie, deserves a special mention. His incisive and constructive comments made me go an extra mile in my quest for knowledge.
