Advocates for National Development and Democracy (ANDD) and the Zambia for Unity, Peace and Development (ZUPED) says they are expectant that government will this week handover Konkola Copper Mines Plc back to its legal owners Vedanta Resources.
ANDD Executive Director Samuel Banda said Vedanta Resources has the technical and financial capacity to operate KCM.
He said his organization does not know which investor government will engage but its position is that government should handover KCM to Vedanta Resources.
And ZUPED President Ronnie Jere said Government should also take advantage of the proposed investment package by Vedanta Resources which is US$3 billion investment capitalization package and the US$20 million corporate social responsibility.
Mr. Jere believed that with that package they will be able to revamp KCM and the economy.
