The ACC board has repeatedly passed resolutions to pursue and finalise investigations that are said to have been ignored by the commission’s director general Thom Shamakamba, against Copperbelt minister Elisha Matambo, Information permanent secretary Thabo Kawana, Central Province permanent secretary Milner Mwanakampwe and Solicitor General Marshal Muchende among others.
Before assuming office and on coming to office, especially on in his presidency, President Hakainde Hichilema promised that he was going to fight past, present and future corruption, that there would be no sacred cow in this fight.
We are not accusing the government officials who are being mentioned of being guilty of corruption. In fact there is a possibility that they may even be cleared if thorough and fair investigations were conducted.
However, credible information received from impeccable sources within the investigative agencies indicates that these probes have literally stalled, that there is actually no action being taken on them, with files packed on the shelves and gathering dust if not thrown in the dustbin entirely.
