Opposition Green Party Leader Peter Sinkamba has bemoaned high levels of corruption in the procurement sector.
Mr. Sinkamba has noted that corruption is slowly becoming a fundamental and distinctive characteristic of the government procurement system.
He has predicted that corruption will soon become unchangeable because it is slowly becoming the dna of the procurement system.
Mr. Sinkamba is worried that the on-going finger-pointing and insulting one another will not help the situation.
He has proposed for a structural and system approach because minds are too polluted with corruption to change easily.
Mr. Sinkamba said in a statement made available to q-news that there is need to increase transparency by minimizing or totally eliminating the human factor in the procurement system.
He is of the view that in order to achieve this is there is need to improve transparency of the public procurement through the implementation of a national e-procurement system.
Mr. Sinkamba contends that the country needs a brainy approach to the fight against corruption and not physical and combative approaches.
