KK laid foundation to fight financial and transnational crimes – DEC

Share

The Drug Enforcement Commission says the late former president Kenneth Kaunda laid a strong foundation in the fight against financial, economic and transnational crimes.

DEC Director General, Musonda Simwayi who eulogized the founding father of the nation in Lusaka yesterday after signing in the book of condolences at the Kaunda residence in New Kasama, stated that the commission has since postponed the holding of World Anti-Drug day in honour of KK.

“As the nation might know, today we were supposed to celebrate the World Anti-Drug Day, but we could not on account of the national mourning and also on account of the ravaging Coronavirus situation in this country. We have therefore pushed the celebration to a date that will be announced at an appropriate time,” said Mr. Simwayi.

He further stated that the Commission was working with parents in communities in the fight against drug abuse which was a world problem.

And Dr. Simwayi has disclosed that the DEC is in the process of forming a mini rehabilitation centre in Lusaka and is working on constructing a national rehabilitation centre in due course.

  3. What a hypocrite. KK laid the foundation but you refuse to do your job. We have criminals today mocking the Zambian people with impunity and the best you can do is watch like a spectator. It will take more than courage to reverse the criminality in Zambia today. As for you sir, continue fighting your petty crimes.

  6. Where did Kaizar Zulu get all that wealth he boosts about? KIKIKIKIKI

  7. You should try your best not to take anything trolls say seriously. No matter how poorly they behave, remember these people spend countless unproductive hours trying to make people mad. They’re not worth your time of the day.

  8. Kaizar Zulu is the worst grown up man have ever seen. His reasoning is very rhetoric and shallow. No wonder ECL fired him. His brain is too small to be utilized. You mean HH was very powerful that he even controlled the MMD government to the point of making decisions for the then minister of Minister of Finance, PF surrogate Edith Nawakwi, and Chiluba to privatize the Zambian Companies? if he has that influence, then Im ready to give him my vote than you craps misleading the president for your won benefit

  9. Once in a while feed their egos, so that by the time they realize they will have stolen the wrong votes. Haha, ati work hard, sleepless nights, working late – like Matt Hancock.
