Name of Rev Pule’s new political party rejected

Share

Dan Pule

The Ministry of Home Affairs through the Registrar of Societies has rejected Dr. Dan Pule’s suggested name of his new political party.

Home Affairs Spokesperson Moses Suwali has confirmed that Dr. Pule recently submitted his application to register his new party with a proposed name called Jubilee Party.

Mr. Suwali however notes that Dr. Pule’s suggested name of his new party has been rejected because it conflicts with a government program dubbed the 50th Independence Jubilee.

He said in this vein, Dr. Pule has been advised to propose another name which does not conflict with any other name so that his application for a party can be considered for procession.

And Mr. Suwali has clarified that this move is not in any way intended to frustrate or infringe on Dr. Pule’s right to register a society, organization or political party but that it is merely a procedural screening process which every person or organization regardless of their standing in society is subjected to.

Mr. Suwali adds that the Chief Registrar of Societies is empowered under section 8 of the Societies Act Chapter 119 to refuse the registration of any Society, Organization or Political Party which in his opinion would prejudice the good welfare and peace in the country or advise accordingly like Dr. Pule’s issue.

He has since advised members of the public and organizations who have intentions to register a society or political party to ensure that they undertake a thorough research by consulting all stakeholders including the Registrar of Societies or PACRA prior to submitting applications so as to avoid inconveniences.

  2. Isn’t there already enough in the church ba Pwele sure! These men of gold should just continue deceiving poor people using the bible it is more safe!

  3. Ba mr.Pwele….please spare us the nonsense. Ubuchende, na ba muka bene , ba mukamfwilwa and you still want to cheat us more….Get lost Mr Pwele.

  4. You may lose everything including your pants. Are you better than BY, Mng’omba, Kavidele, Magande, Milupi or its just a number and CV

  5. How come the Government program dubbed the 50th Independence Jubilee did not conflict with Jubilee Chemist?

    Comeon. These ar totally different areas of business. Jubilee Chemist is a Business, Jubilee Party is a party and 50th Independence Jubilee is an event. How can ony of these be in conflict?

    Zambia. It only happens in Zambia. Pule should contest it. If anything, the 50th Independence Jubilee is only for one year…Next year only and NEVER again.
