MILES SAMPA GOES SOME EXTRA MILES DIP THINKING ON CADRES
HE WRITES ✍️✍️
IDLING YOUTHS OR CADRES
My worry is genuinely about the economically stranded youths linked to both the Opposition and the Ruling UPND. About 2M of them and in the prime of their lives averaging about 25 years old are financially stranded. Most are actually married and with at least 3 children.
De-Cadreism had to be stopped at some point in the Zambian political history but without them accesing their living ‘stipend’ at Markets and Bus stops, how can they be helped to live on?
I think absorbing them into a Compulsory National Service Skills Training Camp for 2 years would be a good option. They would go and learn crops growing, animal husbandry, poultry, aquaculture, plumbing, metal fabrication etc etc.
What they need more however is mindset re-correction that money is equal to Work and Work is equal to Mass times Distance (physical tangible activity that take time to produce money).
Keeping them for 2 years somwhere camped in place like Vubwi, Mushindano, Kaputa, Shangombo, Zimba and Kasempa.
Alot of money would indeed be needed in the Budget for this programme. The return on this national investment would ofcourse be many years later.
The easier zero cost option would be to let them be. “God for us all, each one for themselves” . They however still need to eat and your guess is as good as mine to what other options would be left at their disposal.
The current issue of idling youths or cadres in nearly all provinces should not be reduced to partisan affiliation but humanism view point. It’s a National conundrum that has been and here now is a chance to resolve it once and for all.
Thereon Parliament can also introduce stiffer penalties for market and bus station cadreism or those that will refuse or abscond the mandatory National Service Skills 2 years Camping.
Let’s be real. There are no companies and there will be non for a while to come to employ all the stranded youths.
Again, its actually not just PF youths that are currently jammed economically but the UPND youths aswell that if all things were equal and as having been the case in previous Governments, should have now been minting big at Markets and Bus stops.
So this is a non partisan but national historical problem that needs some urgent ‘out of the box’ national solution before it can erupt on the nation like a Volcano.
2 years mandatory bush training national service camp for all stranded youths is the realistic solution.
My personal thoughts herein.
