Miss Mpongwe 2026 Feeds Learners at Mumba Centre

By Staff Reporter

Miss Mpongwe 2026 Salifyanji Namwinga has shown that her crown goes beyond beauty.

Namwinga, together with her first and second runners-up Loveness Malupenga and Abigail Ilunga, mobilized food donations and prepared meals for learners at Mumba Children's Centre in Mpongwe.

Ahead of the visit, the three mobilized donations of food and groceries to support the centre before visiting to cook for the learners.

The initiative demonstrates how public platforms can be used to inspire positive change and support vulnerable members of society.

The Mumba Children's Centre is part of the Mumba Children's Project, established by Hildah Mulenga in 2004 in memory of her son. The project works to improve access to education, healthcare, clean water and food for children and families in Mpongwe and beyond, with at least one meal a day for children among its key objectives.

Local businesses, farmers, traders and other well wishers are encouraged to support the initiative by donating food items such as maize meal, beans, cooking oil, rice and vegetables to help sustain the centre's mission.

CHOLERA CASES ELSEWHERE A WAKE UP CALL FOR LUFWANYAMA -DC

By Staff Reporter

Lufwanyama District Commissioner Justine Mwalikwa says the number of cholera cases being recorded in some parts of the country is a wake-up call for the district.

Speaking during an epidemic preparedness meeting, Mwalikwa said the rising number of cases and deaths should not be taken lightly, as it shows that communities are at risk.

He said cholera transmission is well known, hence the need for everyone to remain cautious and observe preventive measures.

Mwalikwa said good health among Zambians is essential for national progress.

He stated that emergency response is a shared responsibility involving government, security agencies, traditional leaders and communities.

Mwalikwa has called on the Ministry of Health to strengthen early warning and communication systems.

‎FOUNDATION FOR GOOD HEALTH ORGANISATION RAISES CONCERN OVER INCREASING ROAD ACCIDENTS INVOLVING RIDERS
‎
‎By Staff Reporter
‎
‎The Foundation for Good Health Organisation has expressed concern over the rising number of road traffic accidents involving riders, attributing the trend to poor road safety practices among some road users.
‎
‎Through its Project Coordinator and Acting Director, Ian Simukoko, the organisation observed that lack of riding experience, failure to adhere to road safety regulations, and the use of alcohol and other substances are among the major contributing factors to the increasing accidents.
‎
‎Simukoko has since called for concerted efforts among key stakeholders, including the Traffic Section of the Zambia Police Service, the Road Transport and Safety Agency (RTSA), local authorities and community leaders, to work together in addressing the challenge.
‎
‎He said there is need for increased awareness campaigns, enforcement of road safety regulations and community involvement to promote responsible riding practices and help reduce accidents on the roads.

Ndola city council gives street vendors one week to vacate streets

By Staff Reporter

The Ndola City Council has given street vendors one week to vacate the streets in the Central Business District and other undesignated areas.

Council Public Relations Manager Rebecca Mushota says vendors should voluntarily move into designated markets within one week.

Mushota says the one-week period will allow traders to engage the Department of Community Services and secure trading spaces.

She says the move follows engagements between Mayor Kennedy Kasaba, traders and relevant authorities aimed at addressing street vending in the city.

She adds that the Mayor in recent weeks inspected trading places and engaged market traders as part of efforts to restore order in Ndola.

Mushota says a joint meeting involving the council's Departments of Public Health and Community Services, Council Police and the Zambia Police Service was also held to discuss enforcement measures.

She says during the one-week period, the Department of Community Services will be allocating trading spaces in designated markets to all interested vendors.

She says more than one thousand trading spaces are available across various markets in the city, and has urged street vendors to take advantage of the opportunity to formalize their businesses.

Mushota has warned that enforcement will begin immediately after the sensitization period expires, with street vendors and makeshift stalls removed from the streets.

She says the exercise is intended to keep the city clean, prevent cholera and restore order in public spaces.

GOVERNMENT CONDEMNS POLITICAL CHANTS AT NKANA STADIUM

Government has condemned the chanting of political slogans by some individuals during a league match between Nkana FC and Makeni All Stars played at Nkana Stadium on Saturday, October 10, 2026.

Ministry of Youth, Sport and Arts Permanent Secretary Kangwa Chileshe says the conduct is unacceptable and has no place in sport, which should unite people across political and social divides.

"Sport must not be used as a platform for advancing political agendas. Such conduct undermines the spirit of sport and risks turning football grounds into centres of political confrontation," Chileshe says.

He has warned that allowing political activities at football matches could provoke rival groups, thereby creating unnecessary tension and potentially leading to violence.

Chileshe stressed that stadiums must remain safe spaces for players, officials and supporters, and that no one should engage in conduct that threatens peace and order at sporting events.

He has called on the Football Association of Zambia - FAZ, the Zambia Premier League and all football clubs to take firm action by cautioning their supporters, strengthening sensitisation efforts and ensuring that political chants and activities are not tolerated at matches.

He says clubs must take responsibility for the conduct of their supporters, and that the incident at Nkana Stadium must not be allowed to set a precedent.

Chileshe has reiterated that sport is a national asset that must be protected from political interference.

He warned supporters against repeating such behaviour and urged all stakeholders to uphold discipline, respect and sportsmanship, adding that football grounds must remain places where Zambians come together to support their teams, not spaces for political mobilisation or confrontation.
