Presidential Appointments Must Be Taken Seriously

I was one of those who were very happy when our President, Hakainde Hichilema (HH), introduced new ministries such as the Ministry of Technology and Science. Personally, I saw this ministry as one of the potential backbones of our economy.

Every ministry and sector can become more productive and efficient when technology is treated as an important tool for national development.

However, I was surprised that a ministry which, in my opinion, needed youthful and innovative minds to make it truly meaningful was placed under an older generation of leadership. I have nothing personal against Mr. Mutati, and this is not an attack on him. However, I strongly believe that the appointment was not the most appropriate for a ministry that needed fresh ideas, innovation and an aggressive approach to technological development.

Over the past five years, I have personally followed many of the activities and announcements from the Ministry of Technology. Unfortunately, I have struggled to see major developments that would make an ordinary Zambian confidently say that technology has truly transformed our country.

Does the ministry even have fully functional provincial structures and offices? Where are the competitive provincial technology exhibitions? Where are the programmes mobilising artisans and young innovators? Where are the initiatives that expose our young entrepreneurs and potential investors to countries that are succeeding in technology and innovation?

Technology does not only mean complicated machines, artificial intelligence or advanced computers. Technology can start with solving simple problems.

Honestly, we should be concerned as a country that we continue importing simple manual tools such as hoes while thousands of young Zambians graduate every year without employment.

DO WE HAVE BETTER SERVICES IN ZAMBIA COMPARED TO OTHER AFRICAN COUNTRIES?
one bemba proveb which I feel it is biased is umwana ushenda atasha nyina ukunaya. yess but in most cases your mother maybe the best and you may only know when you visit another homes.
I never knew that it is not easy to make a clinic for business in Zambia Antil when I suggested to my business partner who is abroad that we needed to move that direction. His answer was a lesson to me. he said it was very expensive to setup a private clinic in Zambia because the Government of Zambia was one of the best in Africa were medical care is concerned. it offers quality and about 99.8 free services. according to him even most of our neighbors access and refer to be treated in Zambia than in there own countries.
Gues what, the lecture continued when he added that our doctors and nurses have been outstanding even in USA, Europe and Australia.
This made me to take interest in visiting our neighboring countries and look at othe economic programs such as agriculture, I was convinced at personal level when I learned that our country is doing extremely well compared maybe only with south Africa which you know that there agriculture industry is controlled by foreigners. I know we have countries such as Egypt who are not our Mets in terms of development. it's not wise to compare ourselves with a country which has been there even before Jesus time there economy was greate.
I mean we must be proud of our leaders in Zambia. they have been trying to make this country what it is in comparison to ther Mets.
