Hi Media Comrades,
Aluta Continua, Aluta Continua
Rainbow Newspaper Limited wishes to stand steadfast in this trying moment of Zambia’s good democratic governance. The Rainbow Newspaper ltd remains solidly behind, Chansa and her husband, Henry Ngilanzi and family.
We believe in the truth and as the taste of the pudding is in the eating, it is our belief that Zambian journalists are being hunted like wild animals by politicians in the ruling Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD).
It is really sad that Zambia is slowly but steadily becoming a Police State. What transpired today, in the Chansa Kabwela-The Post case is a sad development were we saw the Police stand and watch cadres way lay an ‘accused person’ Chansa Kabwela, without any serious attempt to arrest cadres intimidating someone before court.
We are calling and challenging the Inspector General of Police, Francis Kabonde and Home Affairs Minister, Lameck Mangani to resign on moral grounds forthwith, as the two gentlemen have failed to provide safety to our sister, Chansa.
We shall be with Media Comrades the whole hog
Our prayer and hope is that President Rupiah Bwezani Banda must just swallow his pride and act in a manner of modernity by discontinuing this Chansa Kabwera persecution which is denting Zambia’s democratic credentials, that is if our so-called governors have any!!!
Aluta Continua We Stand for the truth, nothing but the truth.
It is not just right for the State to fight her citizen, what kind of father is he, who brings chaos in a home
Regards
D.Sinjela

An extension to the original study, “At the Coalface: Gender and Local Government” that covered four SADC countries (South Africa, Namibia, Lesotho and Mauritius) this report demonstrates both the challenges and possibilities at the local level. The lesson from the first study is that no country in the region is likely to make the SADC targets without adopting special measures.
The example of Lesotho, which has a First Past The Post (FPTP) system at the local level but adopted a system of reserved seats for women that are rotated with every new election, is pertinent to Zambia which has a similar electoral system. With 58% women in local government, Lesotho is living proof that change is possible.
The evidence gathered in this research shows that even in their small numbers women in Zambia bring different perspectives and interests to local governance. They are concerned about every day issues – health, education, land and waste disposal. They are seen as hard working; accessible; close to the people and to local issues. How much more value could women add if only there were more of them! Male councilors and constituents agreed that this is a goal to strive for
