LUSAKA, April 24 (Xinhua) For a long time, many of the poor and vulnerable communities across Zambia viewed access to justice as a preserve of the elite and privileged in society.
To this end, many people were often denied justice because of not being able to afford the services of a lawyer.
However, this situation is slowly changing because of the coming on board of paralegals, who are now offering a range of legal services to the indigent and marginalized populations in the country.
In Zambia, paralegals are individuals that have received basic training in law and human rights. They are found in townships and villages, at correctional facilities and police station desks, or at legal advice desks run by civil society organizations.
Maintenance mostly over in Africa
Most of the current round of refinery maintenance in Africa has been completed.
However, South Africa’s Cape Town and Engen remain closed.
ONGOING MAINTENANCE
New and revised entries Ghana’s sole oil refinery, the Tema facility, has come back online after being shut in for a few weeks due to technical issues, a source close to the matter said March 22. “The refinery has resumed processing after days of some maintenance to correct some few issues,” the source said. The refinery went offline in late July, after having run through its reserves of crude. It then restarted in early January only to shut down again a month later. The CDU currently only has one furnace, which means the refinery can only operate at around 30,000 b/d.

REFINERY NEWS ROUNDUP: Lower refinery runs in Africa
Refinery runs in Africa are expected to decline in January, partly on limited demand recovery and partly on extended outages in South Africa, according to S&P Global Platts Analytics.
The Engen refinery in Durban the second largest in the country was shut following a fire and explosion on Dec. 4, while the Cape Town refinery has been closed since July.
Engen has previously said it was “considering several options” for the refinery, although no decision has been made. The company said it remained “fully committed to operating the Engen refinery in a safe and reliable manner.”
