The Economics Association of Zambia has advised its youth membership not to engage in any planned illegal protests as these do not yield any positive or constructive results for a country’s economic development agenda.
EAZ Deputy National Secretary Rita Lumbwa says the Association’s economic policy advocacy is based on constructive engagement with various stakeholders including government.
Mrs Lumbwa says the Association has lined up the Wakanda1 Youth Empowerment Conference and the Wakanda1 Women Empowerment Conference where they have invited internationally acclaimed
activists and senior government officials.
She said such platforms are more likely to yield positive results as they champion constructive dialogue among various stakeholders.
Mrs Lumbwa said the EAZ has been working tirelessly to
ensure that these events become a success.
“We strongly believe that youths are the future leaders and remain a backbone of any country’s economic development agenda. Therefore, we call upon all youths of the country to get in touch with our secretariat to see how best they can take part in these very important events as they are free of
charge”, she said.
Mrs Lumbwa said the Association has additionally been engaging State House and the Ministry responsible for youths to ensure that women and youth agendas remain a priority.
She said the Association has further lined up the National Economic Summit to ensure continuous dialogue across all stakeholders aimed at enhancing wealth creation and promoting national economic
development.
Suddenly everyone has something for the youth
Change is in the air
Only upnd fanatics see and smell change. Get your children and let them go and stand in front of ZP not innocent Zambians.
Apparently you are the only one who is enjoying the “economic developments” taking place in Zambia.
There is some coffee brewing and you cannot smell it. I am sure your nostrils are blocked!
cowards
ECZ
Is a useless group,
Inflation running away , GDP negative, foreign reserves down , unemployment skyhigh and this ECZ just bootlicks lungu instead of offering advice
EAZ youth, is this man called Habazoka normal in his head, every protest is illegal until we make legal ourselves.
We fighting for the the betterment of our future and that of his grandchildren. The protest is not for youth but for every Zambian including Tasila Lungu.
The economy has np barrier it affects even those who are ruling us are affected only that they stretch their hands through corruption.
What nosense is this from EAZ kantemba association.
This is a useless organisation we didn’t hear anything from it when PF hired foreign economists from France..now they are talking.
These are associations with intergrity who believes in dialogue not these yapping youths with their useless music. I still enjoy PK Chishala and Masasu band’s songs. Not hit Today mailo finished.
They are demonstrating against freedom of expression based on Lusambo’s utterances ? Sounds funny because expressions are happening despite Lusambos empty threats. There are serious issues youths can demonstrate against e.g youth unemployment.

Playing mr nice guy to save the king. Is it not late for such invitations EAZ. Cos even if Youths attended yo international conferences, how ll that reduce the price of mealie-meal? How ll that reduce the price of fuel? Corruption, Freedom of expression, Racism, awarding of tenders to foreigners? All of these issues concern yo Organisation of which u havent dared to voice against any of these but u are quick to organise jst a mere conference. The ministry of Tourism can do that, if not better.
