The Zambia Union of Government and Allied Workers has launched the Campaign for a Corruption-Free Service (CCFS), an initiative currently being conducted in various institutions.
The Union has acknowledged the Government’s continued efforts in combating corruption in public offices. However, it emphasizes that the fight against corruption is a collective responsibility that requires the participation of every citizen and public service worker. It is against this background that the Campaign for a Corruption-Free Service (CCFS) was introduced.
Through the Office of the National Coordinator in Charge of Education and Training, Comrade Samwaka Sambiana, the Union has organized this campaign to raise public awareness on the negative effects of corruption in public institutions and its impact on service delivery.
Comrade Sambiana has appealed to public service workers to adhere to laid-down procedures and guidelines when delivering services to citizens. She stated that the fight against corruption begins with individuals and requires commitment from all stakeholders.
She further noted that corruption undermines national development and negatively affects the effective delivery of public services.
She has since called on all public service workers to uphold integrity, discipline, transparency, and accountability in the execution of their duties.
The Union is implementing the campaign in partnership with various stakeholders. The Anti-Corruption Commission remains the primary stakeholder in the implementation of all CCFS activities, alongside Civil Society Organizations working towards addressing corruption in Zambia.
