Zambia's Envoy to Tanzania recalled

Zambia’s High Commissioner to Tanzania, Ms Marvis Muyunda, has lost her job following a recall by the new administration under President Michael Sata. 

Ms Mayunda, reportedly an aunt to the late President Levy Mwanawasa, was among 12 ambassadors axed in an announcement made by Foreign Affairs Minister Chishimba Kambwili. 

The country’s High Commissioner to Kenya, Ms Christine Lambart, also suffered a similar fate. Ms Mayunda presented her credentials to President Jakaya Kikwete in March.

Mr Kambwili told Zambia’s The Post newspaper on Monday that the termination of contracts for the envoys was “with immediate effect” but they would be accorded a three-month period to prepare their return home in line with their conditions of service.

Other reports suggested that those recalled may have paid the price for associating with the former ruling party – the Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD) whose candidate, and immediate former president, Mr Rupia Banda, lost to Mr Sata in last month’s General Election. 

Yesterday, activity at the High Commission’s offices in Dar es Salaam continued as usual even though efforts by The Citizen to see Ms Mayunda were unsuccessful. No one was ready to talk about the news of her recall.

Employees at the embassy told The Citizen she could not see anyone or grant telephone interviews as she was holed up in a scheduled daylong meeting with other officials.    

 In Lusaka, the list of the diplomatic ‘casualties’ also included former Republican Vice President Dr Nevers Mumba (Canada), former president Rupiah Banda’s cousin Agness Ngoma ( Mozambique), and Zambia Army ex-commander General Isaac Chisuzi ( Namibia).

According to Mr Kambwili, others who have been recalled are Professor Royson Mukwena (UK), ex-minister Marina Nsingo ( Botswana), Albert Muchanga (Ethiopia and AU), Reuben Musakabantu ( Malawi), Dr Sipula Kabanje (Zimbabwe), Anderson Chibwe ( Malaysia) and Alexis Luhila (Nigeria). 

The minister said former deputy chief executive of former ruling party – Jeff Kaande, who served as counsellor at Zambian Embassy in Japan and TV personality Doreen Mukanzo, who was first secretary for press at the mission in South Africa had also been recalled. 

Sacking of diplomats were expected after their April 2011 meeting where then president, Mr Banda, thanked them for financing the MMD and urged them to finance his re-election campaign.
Michael Sata, then main opposition leader, rebuked Mr Banda.

“That is the direct Presidential directive that those diplomats should divert money from their missions and send it to Lusaka for his campaign,” said Mr Sata

The 74-year-old Sata had promised to depoliticise the diplomatic service. Presidents usually appoint political loyalists, relatives and associates to diplomat posts. Source/The Citizen, October 19,2010; Reported by Elias Mbao in Lusaka and Bernard Lugongo in Dar es Salaam.

Panic as shilling hits lowest level

The shilling on Monday fell to the lowest level, exchanging at Sh102 to the dollar.
This plunged markets into uncertainty. As a result, it is now difficult for businesses to either predict or plan their activities.
“If you took your child for further education abroad, you don’t know how much you will pay in shillings. You cannot even plan how much you will save because you don’t know how much you will spend in a month because prices keep on changing,” said Ms Eunice Wamaitha, a commentator on monetary policy issues.


The situation shows that efforts by the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) to stabilise the exchange rate are yet to yield results.
Market players said CBK came into the market selling an unspecified amount of dollars but this has not brought respite in the fall. CBK sold the dollars to individual banks on the basis of their demand.
Since January, the Monetary Policy Committee and the CBK have made several material changes to the monetary policy mainly by increasing interest rates.


They hoped that holders of foreign exchange would be attracted by the high rates to release the dollars in the market.


The shilling has fallen by about 24 per cent since the beginning of the year, from Sh80.8 to the dollar on January 3 to Sh102 to the dollar on Monday.
The currency has lost 43 per cent of its value since March 4, 2007, when the current CBK governor, Prof Njuguna Ndung’u, took over the reins of power.


With the government rolling out several infrastructure projects, including roads and expansion of the port and airports, there are fears that some of them may become more expensive to implement.


The free fall of the shilling is the latest sign of worsening macro-economic conditions. Inflation is currently at the rate of over 16 per cent.


In August, the poor in Nairobi were experiencing an inflation rate of 17.1 per cent, while the middle and upper classes were facing an inflation rate of 11.3 and 12.9 per cent respectively. Source: Daily Nation, Posted on September 26, 2011, Reported by Joseph Bonyo
