Mobile issuance of National Registration Cards to start soon-Kampyongo

Share

Home Affairs Minister Stephen Kampyongo has said that the mobile issuance of National Registration Cards (NRC)’s will start as soon as all logistics are put in place.

Mr. Kampyongo said that Government is committed to rolling out the issuance of NRC’s ahead of the forthcoming Voter Registration exercise.

He said this in an interview with ZNBC news in Lusaka.

Mr. Kampyongo however said the advent of the Coronavirus Disease COVID-19 has impacted negatively on the process to issue the NRC’s, ahead of the forthcoming Voter Registration exercise.

The Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) announced that the voter registration exercise will begin on October 18, 2020 and will run for 30 days.

ECZ Chief Electoral Officer Patrick Nshindano, said this marks a shift from the 60-day plan which the commission earmarked before the advent of COVID-19.

  1. Look at this boy Stephen Kampyongo he used to stand in the sun in Katondo Street all day as illegal currency dealer today he needs someone to hold an umbrella on top of his bald head. This mobile issuance of NRC is suspicious and just brinkmanship by PF.

  2. Just shut up honorably…you make me sick…this administration is a joke..you have sold everything…You have ruined the country with the PF thug caders. You intimidate everyone…You forget that you are supposed to work for the people…it’s not the other way round.
    Ugly round fat face.

  3. We’ve already been informed by secretary-general Davies Mwila that NRC issuance and voter registration are PF party programmes but paid for by everyone. As u turn up to register, just know that u will be giving your particulars to PF members and not government employees.

  4. Again due to low thinking capacity outbreak under PF, both voters and NRC can be done by same government employees, by Ministry of Home Affairs on $700 bicycles and borrowed ambulances.
    Voters registration should be the on going exercise. I always wonder what kind of work ECZ do if their is no erections. They should be registering and updating those who died.

  5. Everything is suspicious to f.o.o.ls that decided on their self to immigrate to other countries. You left because you felt that Zambia is not good enough for you. So now you are there in diaspora but you still seem upset and more concerned about what is happening here than in your own adopted new countries. You are no longer zambian citizens until you regain it under new dual citizenship laws. Your newly adopted countries have more serious problems of systemic racism against you meaning your lives are at risk, and yet you are more concerned about a country you deserted. If this is not a sign of madness then I don’t know what is. Look at the peacock above

  6. These guys are doing everything possible to win the 2021 elections. Does UNPD have strategies to win the 2021 elections? I personally doubt that but we will see.

  7. “ECZ Chief Electoral Officer Patrick Nshindano, said this marks a shift from the 60-day plan which the commission earmarked before the advent of COVID-19”
    Doesn’t it make more sense for the voter registration to be extended as opposed to shortening it due to covid?
    Can someone please help me understand the reasoning behind reducing the time?
    UPND should think and act, the PF know that new voters want change.

  8. If you really want to run an efficient National Registration system please divorce it from elections. The exercise must be run year round with heightened vigor when people aren’t cultivating fields every year. Unfortunately the Piffle have taken this exercise and aligned it to elections. The MMD granted many Congolese like Elvis Nkandu citizenship in similar manner, want to win elections

  9. Dull SG Mwila already said that he wants PF to be part of this excercise as is the case with these empty tins they see no demarcation between party and government.

  10. The problem with these PF dwarfs and its president is that they think they own Zambia and can do anything at will.

    We have had successful and powerful MMD government which seemed difficult to be dislodged.

    PF government is the weakest of all and the reason why they are in panicking mood.

    Its written all over that Zambians are fed up with these thieves and time to go is ahead of them.

    I’m ready to register and cast my vote and for sure we shall change the government.

    PF must go!

  11. Lazi – UPND are foooools they never learned….they are waiting to petition at the concourt after elections again. Their Kenyan friends in opposition were pushing for reforms at this point before the General election.

  12. And the rigging my dear friends is about to start. I am so happy people like Kaizer Zulu will be in prison next year.
