if development can come that easily by traveling a lot, zambia would have been more than america
Well illustrated One Zero #5. The President doesn’t know in his job he is supposed to put in some paper work in his office at State House. He acts like his career was a footballer or athlete who wants to be outdoors all the time. That is not the character of a President. We had a short president who would waste time standing outside government offices checking latecoming civil servants. Nothing came out of that. None of the latecomers changed or got fired. Touring places wont bring development. It is making plans (in the office) that brings development
Imwe when does RB work kansi. Always on the move. Ni vasco da gama zo ona:-?
Mr. Tourist! Beware don’t put him back in the seat! You ‘ll cry!
For arguments sake, why didn’t RB attend the Mutomboko Ceremony and he has literally attended all traditional ceremonies in Zambia? Of all the people, why did he send the dying GK? What message did he said by so doing to the Luunda people of Kazembe? What message does that send to the people of Kazembe and Luapula Province? Was RB reacting to how the Chief refused to take the money being distributed at the Chiluba/PF Rebels Conference in Mansa? Is the President hateful to the Mwansabombwe people that he can attend all minute and smallest of the smallest traditional ceremonies but fail to attend and grace the world known Mutomboko? Why did Banda attend other countries’ ceremonies and failed to attend the Mutomboko? He took of shirts in Swazi, but fails to appear at the Mutomboko? WHY?
