“HELP POLICE REGAIN PUBLIC CONFIDENCE”

President Edgar Lungu has challenged the Zambia Police Complaints Commission to help the police service regain public confidence.

The Head of state says the performance of the Police will determine whether people will have confidence in the service or not.

He says the conduct of the police service has been a subject of debate hence the need to work hard in restoring public confidence.

The President says the Commission should also address the concerns of the public regarding the operations of the police officers.

He said this at state house when he swore in Patrick Mutale as the Chairperson of the Zambia Police Complaints Commission and Brigadier General Dr. Frida Kazembe as the Chairperson of the Zambia Correctional Service Commission.

President Lungu urged Brigadier General Kazembe to ensure there is security for inmates at all correctional facilities.

He also urged her to deal with issues affecting officers such as those to do with transfers and promotions.

President Lungu said Brigadier General Kazembe’s loyalty to the command has earned her the promotion.

He expressed hope that the two will perform to his expectation because of their track record in public service.
