There are gaps in payment of SCT in chifunabuli, particularly Mbilima Mwenge viz:

Nov-dec 2025 had been paid in January 2026
Jan -Feb 2026 had been paid in April 2026
Mar -Apr 2026 had been paid in July 2026

So far only two payments for 2026 instead of 3 payments had been made meaning SCT staff made one gap in terms of payment for 2026 because the one which was paid in January this year was for Nov-dec last year, 2025.

Worst still some have not been paid since the introduction of the E- payment system despite visitations and verifications by SCT staff who are always blaming the system. No! it's not the system, it's human error that's why we are having such gaps. Computer theory is garbage in garbage out. So human error in - human error out.Systems are controlled by humans including robots, computers, calculators, mobile phone operations etc so incompetence by human can lead to incompetence by the system

call a spade a spade, I think Maybin will scoop the KAFUMBO ward Councillorship. Instead ya kulwisha Maybin umwacemunene mulelwisha ifye fyebakote. Ine Maybin tatalilencebapo ati we cikotewe, So iwe walenceba ukuti ndicikote teti inyiminine pantu ndekucinga. Nala votela Maybin. I used to read his postings, he never mentioned ati KAFUMBO ya ba youth. KAFUMBO ya bonse weather you are old or young ukwete fye amano kuti ateka. Nomba mwakalilefye ukulandalanda ati indicikote but advise pa ng'anda mwandi. That's why this daysmy assistant is reserved. If to help I'm very reluctant. Viva Maybin eo Nala votela. Viva Maybin, ali icefye. VIVA MAYBIN.

I attended a meeting of village Head men and women held at Nshungu Rural Health Post in Chifunabuli District of Luapula Province which was convened by the Ministry of Health in conjunction with the House of Chiefs and traditional Affairs whereby we had an interactive session discussing issues concerning early marriage and the detrimental effects thereof

I was thrilled by this meeting hence I developed encouragement and urge to initiatively convene a meeting of all village Head men and women to strategically find a solution to combat Early Marriage and it's negative impacts thus announce through social media to form and formally register the Mbilima Mwenge zone village Head persons'Association, a powerful platform dedicated to preventing early marriage and securing a brighter future for our children

Suddenly, his window side was crowded with and sealed up by such women, girls, men, and boys each struggling to push hi # or her merchandise through his window side to as closer as his nose, Some had already poked. their heads inside the car persuadong him to take and buy their merchandise, even forcefully placing their merchandise on his palm in a bid to win his favor for their merchandise to the extent of even folding his palm to grip their merchandise . Perplexedly, he decided to buy randomly some roasted groundnuts and cassava because it had been awhile since he had tasted such and said he had had enough and thank to all them and he closed his window. All such women, girls, men, and boys started to withdraw from his 'car with disappointments and shyly glancing back hoping he would change his mind and call one for some food stuffs. All was in vain. He then murmured, " sorry maningi" and drove off to the junction and turned left into Tuta road heading north. TO BE CONTINUED IN THE NEXT AND THIRD EPISODE.

MY FRIENDS TOURISM TO MBILIMA MWENGE VILLAGE KAFUMBO WARD CHIEF MWEWA CHIFUNABULI CONSTITUENCY AND DISTRICT

During his vacation leave he planned to go to Kitwe to visit his elder sister. However, he had not been to Luapula province despite the fact that it was his parents origin from a village known as Mbilima Mwenge somewhere in Luapula province. Inspired by his ancestral spirits, he made up his mind and decided to go to Mbilima Mwenge Village.

The following day, he started off for his parents origin, Mbilima Mwenge Village. At Kapiri Mposhi junction he hesitantly turned into the Great North Road heading east. He had been to Mkushi before so he decided to pass by Mkushi non stop. After 118Kms from Kapiri Mposhi junction, he arrived at Serenje town. At Serenje town he found Tanzanian truckers had congested the roadsides so he decided to pass by and continued his journey. Just after Serenje town about 40kms from Serenje town he started approaching a junction place dubbed as Mukando. He sighed softly knowing that he was approaching the gateway junction place to Luapula province. As entered the place, he started to slow down looking for a parking spot on the roadsides. Immediately,, he spotted one seemingly to be a lay-by as he was driving to such place he suddenly saw women some with babies strapped onto their backs,girls, men and boys swung into action scampering from all places as if they were running away from a swam of bees. He nearly drove off in panic. Then he came to realize that all such people were dashingly rushing to his car with dishes and plastic bags containing all sorts of food stuffs such as roasted groundnuts cooked unshelled ground and bambara nuts confectioneries fruits and vegetables.
