      Govt explains ‘abandoned’ youth empowerment trucks

      AN inquiry has revealed that the government abandoned about 30 oil tanker trucks at some private residence in Lusaka’s Makeni area, following a contractual dispute with Kapesika Energy and Petroleum Limited. But Youth, Sports and Arts Minister Elvis Nkandu says the trucks were deliberately kept at a private residence under a rental agreement because the government has no place to keep them while resolving outstanding issues with the oil marketing company.

Mr Lifuka, who is also Transparency International Global vice-president, says while this is suspicious, he finds it even surprising that the Auditor General, who has been implicated and arrested in connection with the theft at the Ministry of Finance, would refuse to step aside while the matter goes to court. Rueben LIFUKA: “First and foremost, the Auditor.......
