By Derrick Sinjela in Lusaka EDUCATION unlocks the future of the nation. After World War II; Japan invested in the education of its people with correct curriculum to develop the nation and her people. Rural Development needs broad thinking with a curriculum that is dovetailed into long-term economic vision and invest not only in today but in the tomorrow generations. Many of our Rural Areas are cut off from development. Educating our future is not about just building the Primary School or Secondary School or University and then you create barriers to access education. Poverty is one of the barriers...

Speech Analyst Mile Sichula …writes on Happy struggling journalists We have come a long way and we are far from our desired destiny. Our destiny will and it can never be free from conflict with those who want to hide information from citizens. It is time for the media to adapt to unfriendly authorities than to complain because those with power to cage and brutalise Journalists seem to be happy with the status quo. Remember the saying, there is no sweet without sweat. To inform, educate and entertain requires and demands hard work. Imagine a World without Journalists, just think...

Dr Kenneth Kaunda cannot reconcile HH and Lungu, but the reason why Zambia is going through all this mess

By SIKAILE SIKAILE ©2018 “BUILDING STRONG COMMUNITIES BY PROMOTING JUSTICE FOR ALL CITIZENS” LOOKING at what our nation is going through today, it always gives me more appetite to read about Zambian political and cultural history time and again. My OPINIONS are that Kaunda did lay a bad foundation for this nation and probably he is one of the key culprits why we are in this mess. There are serious issues that needs or rather would have needed serious Kaunda’s attention but he has ignored them all. 1. The Balotse Land agreement. Kaunda has been very mute on this matter as...

After such a gorgeous welcome in my clan on the banks of Lake Tanganyika, I want to go to Ngabwe to think about what was going through the mind of the person who told my people that once there was a beautiful place called paradise; the place where the ancestors of people I have no historical connection with were booted out for sinning. I really want to go to Ngabwe to find out what was going through the mind of that person who said there is a place, somewhere in the future, a beautiful place in which we will live...

Zambezi Express Editor’s choice: 06.09.18 By Fred Namakando M’membe If there has ever been a time when our country has needed very good leadership, it is now. This is the worst this country has ever been since independence in terms of leadership. The problems and challenges our country and our people face today would stretch to the utmost, even the best leadership possible. Today, 66.2 per cent of our population is below 25 years and 28.5 per cent of our people are between 25 and 54 years old. We have 2.9 per cent of our population between 55 and 64...

Have a history teacher explain this if they can. Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846. John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946. Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860. John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960. Both were particularly concerned with civil rights. Both wives lost a child while living in the White House. Both Presidents were shot on a Friday. Both Presidents were shot in the head. Now it gets really weird. Lincoln’s secretary was named Kennedy. Kennedy’s Secretary was named Lincoln. Both were assassinated by Southerners. Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson....

“Perhaps as a way of fixing me, Government ministries and departments, that were customers of ZANACO, were directed to divert their deposits to private commercial banks. As part of liberalisation, government ministers refused to bank their ministry’s public funds with the people’s bank. Some ministries withdrew money held in ZANACO accounts and opened new accounts with private banks. They preferred to deal with private banks where they personally negotiated and got higher interest rates, some of which was deposited into their personal accounts. One minister even drove to the Bank of Zambia with trunks to collect money for his ministry....
