PF Threatens to De-Register NGOs Government has threatened to de-register Non Governmental Organizations that have vowed not to oblige the 90 day compliance period of the new NGO. Community Development Minister Doctor Joesph Katema says the CSOs have no option but to obey the new law that has been widely condemned or face closure. "The Act is now law so they either have to obey or face closure. We have given them a 90 day window programme and if they do not follow it they will have to bear the full consequences," Katema said. "Once an Act has been passed there is nothing anybody can do in punishing them we will simply be following the law." CSOs have opposed the NGO Act number 16 of 2009 that strengthens to strangulate their operations with several restrictions. ****PF are so quick to implement laws which suits them. Talk about the information bill and the Constitution they go ndwiiiiiiiii.
