NGOCC condemns PF attacks on LAZ

NGOCC EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR ENGWASE MWALE PRESS RELEASE for Immediate Release Saturday 4th March 2017 The Non-Governmental Organisations’ Coordinating Council ( NGOCC ) condemns, in the strongest terms, the barbaric and misguided attacks on the Law Association of Zambia ( LAZ) by cadres of the Patriotic Front Party (PF). While we recognize that every citizen has a democratic right to express their views on any public institution, the attacks towards the LAZ and in particular towards the LAZ President Ms Linda Kasonde are unwarranted and clearly meant to intimidate the Association from playing it’s rightful role as a legal advisory.

Should Chiefs in Zambia be involved in ‘Active or Partisan politics’?


Notice: Undefined index: catFilterList in /home/zambi/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-likes/api.php on line 243

Wednesday May 19, 2018 By Alfred A. K. Ndhlovu [Hon.] SEVERAL political leaders in Zambia have commented, or sometimes comment, that all chiefs should not comment on political matters because as traditional rulers they must be neutral in politics. There are two terms which have not been defined properly by politicians themselves which confuse the citizens of Zambia. The terms are “active politics” and “partisan politics” to which can, or must, be added the other common phrase “traditional rulers”. Is being neutral in politics consistent with respect for fundamental human rights? Do chiefs have human rights as traditional rulers and...

Let us emulate Theresa May, Edgar Chagwa Lungu, prods ‘Zambia-first mindset’

Fellow Citizens, Let me quote the former Prime Minister of Britain, Mrs. Theresa May, because her words in the attached video are relevant to Zambia today. Among other things, Mrs. May said:“I am worried about the state of politics…. One which believes that if you simply assert your view loud enough and long enough, you will get your way in the end….

Online technology allows people to express their anger and anxiety without filter or accountability. Aggressive assertions are made without...
