National Movement for Progress (NMP) president Ng’andu Magande has described as frustrating the Patriotic Front (PF) government’s reneging over the taking of the Access to Information Bill to Parliament.

Information and Broadcasting Services Minister Kennedy Sakeni Minister recently disclosed that the Bill that was scheduled to be tabled in the current sitting of Parliament will instead be brought to the House in September when Parliament reassure sitting.

Mr. Magande who is also former Finance Minister under the previous MMD government says such inconstancies being shown by the PF government imply that the PF did not mean well in its 2011 campaigns promises to the people.

Mr. Magande has observed that the PF government may have known forehand that it would not fulfill its promises but went on to allegedly deceive the Zambian people in the country that it would bring about change when voted into government.

  1. Chikaamba Magande, you had 20years to do that you failed lamentably out of selfishness. PF has just been there for a year, and you are saying you are frustrated over FI Bill. When did you become so desperate for it? stop being childish. You understand well the implications of the Bill far better than most of us, and that has been the reason while you failed to do it yourselves as a bunch of crooks and criminals in MMD government. Instead of advising on the pros and cons of the FI Bill you are trying to create political capital out of it all, what kind of animal politicians are you people? why is it that you only care about yourselves and your prostitutes at the expense of the peaceful and generous Zambians? can we have a bit of sanity and normacy pls
