THE Communications Authority of Zambia has urged persons interested in bidding for the fourth national mobile cellular licence to purchase a complete set of bidding documents at K300 million from the authority. Communications Authority international and public relations officer Ngabo Nakonde announced yesterday in a press statement that the authority had issued invitations for eligible persons to bid for the fourth national mobile cellular licence.

Nakonde stated that bidders should submit a written application and make payment of a non-refunded fee of K300 million or equivalent of any freely convertible currency at the Bank of Zambia ruling exchange rate.

“Sealed bids from eligible bidders must be deposited at the office of controller on or before 14:00 hours Zambian time on Wednesday, 27th February, 2008 and must be accompanied by a refundable bid security of not less than two per cent of the bid offer,” Nakonde stated.

“Bids will be opened at 14:00 hours on Wednesday, 27th February, 2008 in the presence of bidders and their representatives who choose to attend in the board room at Communications Authority, head office,” stated Nakonde.

Some years ago Kavindele wanted to bring Vodafone but somehow was blocked. I hope this time around we are not playing tricks. This is a welcome move as not only will it create competition but benefit the country in all areas, employment, taxes,donations to social sectors, supplies and many more.
Infact we should have the fifty or sixth!
