The Board of Directors of the Zambia Postal Services Corporation met on Thursday at a special board meeting to discuss the administration of the Social Cash Transfer funds.
Board Chairman Andrew Musukwa said in order to pave way for investigation relating to the matter, the Board resolved to suspend with immediate effect the following officers in management for a period not exceeding six months, from execution of official duties.
Those suspended include Post Master General McPherson M Chanda, Best Mwaichi – Director Finance, Mr Isaac Kamwimba – Director Operations and Mr. Moses K Musonda – Assistant Director Operations
The Board further resolved to appoint an interim management team to be led Mr. Brighton Ngoma as the new Postmaster General.
Mr. Stanley Phiri is the new Director Operations while Ms. Dorothy M Mulenga is the new Finance Director.
Zampost is at the centre of a massive graft scandal after it was engaged by the Minister of Communiy Development and Social Welfare to manage a multimillion dollar Social Cash Transfer Scheme.
An audit of the scheme by the Auditor General’s Office showed that Zampost diverted some of the money meant for poor beneficiaries of the scheme to buying expensive utility vehicles.
The audit also shows that Zampost was paid 10 percent of the entire budget fund as management fees, which was against donor guidelines.
From a bemba to Ngonis. No place for funny tribes. Good move.
From president Lungu to president DJ7 the real Bemba
McPhersom Chanda the suspended Post Master General is brother to Sunday Chanda the PF media director and Board member at National Airports Corporation. They two are cousins to Kingsley Chanda the Commissioner General at ZRA, and the three are cousins with Amos Chanda, the gremlin at State house. I hope you get the story….now you know where the social cash transfer ends up
Where did these people come from? Who interviewed them. This is why the postal services is a waste of resources. They can’t innovate or improve their services because you put Lazy cadres in these positions. We reject such non-transparent appointments. Publish their Biographies.
DJ7 now who are the real tribalists. Zambia is for Zambians and not for some tribes. Its truly sad to find people like you who do not appreciate what our leaders fought to uproot, the feeling that some Zambians are more Zambian than others. What a shame that we can have Zambians like you who practice regionalism to the point of rejoicing that a real Bemba has been appointed. So there are some false Bembas shame on you.
If Mr Ngoma is the son of Mr Phillimon Ngoma then he’s not from Eastern Province but from the copperbelt.

Don’t forget Jonas Chanda the Bwana Mkubwa MP is their brother too. They are deeply rooted in PF.
The small fish always go down first whilst the big fish and master mind criminal lungu will walk free. That is how.messdd up a dictatorship is
Another Corrupt Bat in place of the previous vampire, to continue sucking the blood of poor vulnerable Zambians who vote P.F anyway, so suffer little children!
This means they are not fired and will be on full pay until investigations are completed. More money in their pockets!!!
Fire them for what? Pray hard so that one day you can be given a chance to steal government money. That is Zambian spirit…… I can wait for my own chance to come.
@ Mpemfu, the Chandas are just names they are not related as you twist the facts.
Sunday Chanda, Jonas Chanda (Bwana Mkubwa MP) and Mchperson Chanda are brothers mune. Same mother and father. Get facts from people who know the family before coming to twist facts yourself OK?
Mpemfu & Dudelove, you are spot on. Could not have explained better. Sunday Chanda, Jonas Chanda (Bwana Mkubwa MP) and Mchperson Chanda are brothers.
They may be related but that should not deter them from getting good jobs. The only blemish is that one of them has abused the trust entrusted in him by the Zambian people. May justice prevail.
It means the fellas were not dodging school, and got educated. Nomba bambi mwalefyuka ku sukulu!
I cant just believe how unfair some people can be. How do you surely steal money meant to support the elderly, widows, the disabled (especially the blind) and orphans?
is zampost still giving out loans ? iam not sure the funds are mixed up
IS this Stanley the former MD at NAPSA? Uhm RB is back kkkkkk
