The Civil Society for Poverty Reduction (CSPR) and ActionAid Zambia have called on Government to take urgent and visible corrective action on financial management irregularities and budget implementation gaps highlighted in the Auditor General’s Report for the financial year ended 31st December 2025.

CSPR Executive Director Isabel Mutembo Mukelabai says the report exposes persistent weaknesses in public financial management, including inadequate funding to key social sectors, failure to recover public funds and repeated audit irregularities.

Ms Mukelabai says the challenge facing the country is not merely the size of national budgets, but whether allocated resources are properly utilised and translated into improved services and better living conditions for citizens.
