6. CONTRIBUTION TO TRAINING AND RESEARCH IN THE SCHOOL OF
LAW.
6.1 Training
In August 1999 , I took part in orientating and organizing
students from all schools in the University for two months
internment in various relevant companies and other institutions,
under the aegis of the OTTO-ESSIEN FOUNDATION, an Organisation
formed by the (United Nation Development Program) for training
future leaders in many areas of human activity. This exercise
was repeated in the year 2000, and I was again directed by my
Dean, Dr. F. Ngandu to take part in it again .
In September, 2000, and in September, 2001,1 took part in
teaching of two para-legal groups of 70 students each, in the
basic principles of Laws that affect people in their daily
lives, namely, the Law of Contract, the Law of Torts, Criminal
Law , Family Law and Land Law. I myself taught the two groups
the Law of Torts and criminal Law(L231 and L241).
The program was organized by an amalgam of civil society
organizations, YWCA , the Zambia Civil Education Association and
the Catholic Commission for Justice and Peace, (CCJP ) sponsored
by Zambia's Donors.
In 2000 and also in 2001 , I had also taken in part assisting
the Dean in organizing two Law school third year students, each
year, to take part in the annual Common Wealth Moot Court
Competition, (Africa Region). The competition in the year 2000
was held in Ghana, while that of 2001 was held in South Africa.
The objective of this program is to teach young lawyers the art
of public speaking.
6.2 Research
Right now I am in the process of writing a book in the Law of
Torts under the title of 'Cases and materials in the Law to
Torts' meant as an introductory information to beginners in this
branch of the Law. My colleagues are doing the same in their
respective subjects of their interest. This is a program mounted
by the school itself.
Since 1999, I have taken part in supervising fourth year
students in their obligatory legal essays (between 60 and 100
pages) which is a partial requirement for their Bachelor of Law
Degree (LLB). Failure in this paper means the student cannot
graduate. In the 1997 / 1998 Academic year, I supervised six
students, and in 1998 / 1999 I supervised 10 students. lam
currently supervising 12 students, due to the increase in
student enrolment in the school in the past two academic years.
Although I have not yet had an article published in our school
journal, the Zambia Law Journal, I am a member of the Law
Journal Board of Editors. I have been a member of the Board for
the last three years, taking part in the editing of articles for
publication in the Journal.
7. PUBLICATIONS
Having spent more than two decades on the Zambian judicial bench
after qualifying as a lawyer, I did not have time to write and
publish anything,. There is no time to write anything besides
judgments in the judiciary. After joining the university
however, I have endeavored to write a few articles as
contribution to Collaborative projects. The main articles I have
written and which have been published or will be published soon,
are the following:
(a) Police Brutality in
Zambia: a chapter in a book published by the Southern African
Human Rights NGOs Network( SAHRINGON), an NGO covering all
SADAC countries,
(b) 'The Role of the
Judiciary in promoting Transparency and Honesty in the
country's general elections' a paper jointly written with the
Dean of School of Law, Dr Fred Ng'andu ,as a contribution to a
collaborative project managed by the University of Zambia
Institute of Economic and Social Research (INESOR) in
conjunction with the Christian Michelsen Institute (CMR) of
Norway. The project was based on Zambia's 2001 general
elections. Some of the other researchers involved in the
project are professor Mubanga Kashoki, Dr. Mutumba Bull and
Mr. Peter Loloji.
Besides these two publications
I have also presented several papers to the Crime Prevention
society, managed by the Zambia Police Headquarters, sponsored by
KAF, a German NGO, and to the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC)
public discussions. One paper I presented to the Crime
Prevention Society at a Seminar held at Barn Motel in September
2000 was titled 'Policing and Human Rights' and to the ACC
Public discussion held at Pamodzi Hotel in July, 2001, I
presented a paper titled 'Corruption in the judiciary'.
In 1999 I contributed an article, titled The Role of the
Judiciary in promoting Human Right to the Southern Africa Human
Rights Review (an NGO Report).
8 CONTRIBUTION TO THE LIFE OF THE UNIVERSITY
Since 1st March, 2001, I have served as Assistant Dean for
post-graduate studies (PG), and I am stilt serving in that
capacity. My three year tenure expires on 28th February, 2003.
I am also a member of the current University Senate. From April,
2000, to October 2001 I acted as Chief Editor of the Zambia Law
Journal (ZLJ).
Between Monday 22nd April and Tuesday 30th April, 2002, (for one
week) 1 acted as Director of the Directorate of Research and
Graduate Studies (DRGS) when the incumbent holder, Professor
Lungwangwa travelled to the United States.
9. CONTRIBUTION TO PUBLIC SERVICE
Between 1979 and 1981 I served as Secretary to the Magistrates
Association of Zambia.

Judiciary at several International judicial conferences in the
