Speaker Gotani Hara Rebuffs DPP on New Appointment
DPP did not follow protocol
Following the Vuwa Kaunda’s lost of seat after the Supreme Court declared his seat vacant, the DPP leadership outside Parliament decided to make new appointments to fill vacant seats but the speaker has rebuffed them saying all communication going to Speaker’s office go through the Secretary General of the party represented in Parliament.
DPP through it’s Publicity Secretary, Brown James Mpinganjira wrote the speaker to inform her office about the new changes. The DPP led by Mr Mpinganjira proposed that Martha Lunji must replace Vuwa Kaunda. And that Nick Masebo be deputy to Martha Lunji while Chimwemwe Chipungu be member of Public Appointments Committee. But the Speaker has thrown out the letter citing irregular protocol that DPP followed.
A feud of supremacy between DPP spokesperson Brown James Mpinganjira and the party’s parliamentary spokesperson on finance Joseph Mathyola Mwanamveka has seemingly ensued where both of them have signed off a statement on the party’s position on the alleged misappropriation of K6.2 billion at the Department of Disaster Management (DoDMA), which falls under the presidency.
In an exciting twist of events, Mwanamveka originated a statement as DPP parliamentary spokesperson on finance in which he reprimanded President Lazarus Chakwera’s government for allegedly allowing DoDma officials abuse billions of Kwacha allocated for the fight against the deadly COVID-19 pandemic.
