Awesome!!!!!

Go well Mama. Go and sell our country so that we have investors coming in.
Ba don’t care she will be going to represent the poorest country on earth. You may ask, Poorer than Somalia and South Sudan? Well, just read this latest report
Zambia has been ranked the poorest country on earth Zambia has been ranked the poorest country in the world beating Gaza strip, Zimbabwe, Suriname and other contenders to the title. Qatar has been ranked the richest country in the world for 2014 – 2015.
And contrary to some reports, the most peaceful country is Iceland. Zambia does not even feature among the 10 or more peaceful countries. That ranking was lost after the PF introduced pangas and started hacking political opponents in the country.
Writing about Zambia, the report says:
‘Zambia is one of the leading producers of copper in the world and its economy mainly depends on the foreign investment in copper. Even though the country is equipped with industries like mineral processing, cement production and other  agricultural related industries, it has the highest poverty ratio of 86%. It is the poorest country in the world in which seven out of ten people lives on less than two dollars a day and the average life expectancy in Zambia is 51 years.’
The latest report ranking Zambia as the poorest country even poorer than Surinam makes very sad reading. Firstly, there is no excuse for Zambia to be this poor except that the leaders have brought us to this point. How does the poorest nation buy such expensive cars for leaders and allow them to lead such luxurious lives?
Secondly, Zambians are also to blame for being so patient and waiting for leaders to deliver everything. It is the duty of each and every Zambian to strive for excellence especially as we say we are a Christian nation. We as a people need to reflect and find ways of taking this impoverished country forward. Gone are the days when we took pride in being Zambians. Let’s revive this country!
U sound like a dull tonga. U can go to Somalia or south Sudan u fxxkers
I read the report on ZWD. Thanks
