- Energy Minister, MAKOZO CHIKOTE says the country is NOW expected to have atleast three hours of stable power supply daily due to the measures put in place by the Government.
These include the repair of the power interconnector between Zambia and Namibia and restoration of the second generator unit at Maamba Energy which was undergoing routine maintenance.
Mr CHIKOTE says load shedding hours are expected to further reduce as the Government continues to put in intervention measures.
The Minister was speaking during the National Energy update in Lusaka today .
He said President HAKAINDE HICHILEMA has also called on the power traders to come on board and help mitigate the energy deficit that the country has been experiencing.
Mr CHIKOTE has further urged people not to politicize the energy deficit saying it is not time to make politics but instead work with the Government to find solutions to the problem.
He has encouraged business houses to consider investing in alternative energy sources to help reduce pressure on the national grid.
And ERB Board Chairperson JAMES BANDA stressed the need for business houses to pass on the benefits of incentives given by the Government on solar and LPG gas.
Meanwhile, ZESCO Board Chairperson, VICKSON NCUBE said the current energy crisis should enable the country to invest in alternative energy sources to avoid a similar occurrence in the future.
That minister is an embarrassment ,, why that enthusiasm?? ,, just embarrassing the nation
I thought I was going mad seeing him having such expressions , instead of being embarrassed
🤣🤣🤣
This has to be a very high paying job. That has to be the only reason he is smiling.
No 💩 there bring power in the middle of the night, when people are tired and can't even use any electronics things 🤬
Why speak so emphatically, and yet you're saying something that's not soothing to us?😂😂
imagine
How can business survive on 3 hours a Day or people food. I can a government not considered backups to drought and out all the basket into just 1 energy source madness!
Zambia has been reduced to ashes. Talk is cheap!
Big man was putting a lot of emphasis in what he was saying kwati fyamano.....🤦🏿♂️
😂😂
I felt the same, especially when said "at least 3 hours" and am like at least means their not sure
You have destroyed our budgets
Manje ba first speaker why ba sekelela 🤔
🤣🤣🤣 taking the piss, he’s so happy
Do we do any research and development as a country on energy technology....not through third parties but as a nation using our own facilities
Nothing makes sense... anyway, very soon, Zesco will be History
You know what in Zambia we all understand the issue of load shedding but what we are against is poor management and communication,
For one , why not stick to a normal consistent schedule not that it goes two -4 days no power , or sometimes in the same week it comes at night during the day , in the morning! if u can't make a schedule stop telling us to report useless faults that don't go anywhere situation.
Then don't go on TV assuring the nation of things you don't understand learn to assess the situation before you talk
Then start putting measures in place , I mean the droughts have been predicted long ago even In the times of the old testament but you have the MD bashi office , building more Power stations along one river ,that's an over reliance on one source of energy ninshi you were not thinking, a proper plan that encompasses all issues should have been thought of
we joke in africa😅😅😅
..for RETAIL - nothing to do with normal people... why is he talking like a grade 5 student doing a poem... ABSOLUTEL JOKE of an announcement... GO DO BETTER OR GET OUT!
