MPOSHA DELIVERS MORE DESKS, WARNS RIVALS: “DON’T PLAY COMEDY WITH EDUCATION”
Lusaka, 13th October 2025
Hon. Mike Mposha, Minister of Green Economy and Environment and Member of Parliament for Munali Constituency, has reiterated his commitment to improving education through the Constituency Development Fund (CDF).
Today, Monday, he commissioned and handed over 110 new desks to Vera Chiluba Primary School and Mtendere Primary School, a move aimed at enhancing the learning environment for thousands of pupils. The desks, produced by the Zambia Correctional Service, mark the beginning of a new partnership to ensure quality and durability.
Speaking during the handover ceremony, Hon. Mposha said the initiative directly fulfills President Hakainde Hichilema’s directive that no child should learn while sitting on the floor.
He emphasized that the free education policy remains a cornerstone of the UPND government’s vision to secure a better future for every child.
Hon. Mposha further announced that Munali’s CDF allocation will increase in the 2026 national budget, with more funds directed toward school infrastructure and furniture.
In a strongly worded message to his political rivals, the MP warned aspiring candidates against what he described as “playing comedy with education.” He accused some opponents of faking donations to gain political mileage and urged school administrators to guard against such deception.
“Anyone aspiring to represent a big constituency like Munali must walk the talk,” said Mposha. “We must never play with the education of our children.”
The head teacher of Vera Chiluba Primary School, Ms. Musonda, expressed gratitude for the desks, noting that the school’s 3,294 learners will benefit greatly, especially with examinations approaching.
The event concluded with a vote of thanks from Grade 7 pupil Kecious Moyo, who commended the MP and the government for their continued commitment to ensuring that every child learns in a dignified
environment.
