Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>Civil Society Decentralization Alliance Network-CSO-DAN National Coordinator, George Chimembe, has opposed the proposal by President Hakainde Hichilema to involve District Commissioners-DC\u2019s in the implementation process of CDF funds.<\/p>\n

The President made the proposal during the recently held meeting with officials from all local authorities across the country early August. But Chimembe feels the proposal if implemented will negatively affect the development and use of CDF funds because it will be politicized as DC\u2019s are known to be affiliates of ruling parties.<\/p>\n

He explains that Provincial Ministers who are politicians already seat on the CDF committee and there input in enough, hence the call to have DC\u2019s as part of the process must not be tolerated.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Governance Activist, Ngande Mwanajiti, has called on the media to be vigilant to ensure that DCs do not interfere with operations of CDF Committees should they be allowed to be part of them. He proposes that DC\u2019s should only offer checks and balances if they are allowed to be part of CDF Committees.<\/p>\n
