UNITED Party for National Development (UPND) leader Hakainde Hichilema
has expressed happiness that President Edgar Lungu has returned back
home in sound health and ready to continue his duties.
Speaking in Lusaka yesterday when he undertook a door to door campaign
to drum up support for his adopted Chawama parliamentary candidate
Chales Kasalwe, Mr Hichilema said it was good that President Lungu had
received treated and was fine.
“I personally would like to wish the President a quick full recovery
so that he can get down to work and implement what he promised the
people of Zambia during his campaigns,” Mr Hichilema said.
He said President Lungu deserved good health like any other person
hence his wishing him a quick and total recovery so that he could
resume his duties as soon as possible.
The UPND leader endured a 13 .4 kilometer walk from Misisi Township,
through Kuku down to Kuomboka and Chawama en- route to John Haward
where the final destination of the campaign walk was planned.
Mr Hichilema said he decided to do a door to door campaign walk with
his candidate along side hundreds of his supporters so that the runner
could fully appreciate what the people he was seeking to serve were
going through.
“I don’t appreciate my MP moving in an aircraft or expensive vehicles
without knowing experiencing the electorates’ problems that is why we
have decided not to hold a rally at a central place but visit people
as we walk so that we can see what problems they are faced with” he
said.
From the four townships tour, the UPND leader said his candidate had
seen for himself the job ahead should he be elected.
He advised Mr Kasalwe to abreast himself with challenges of water,
sanitation and blocked drainages crime and other social amenities in
the constituency.
He said the sanitation levels in the townships needed a vigorous
approach and visionary leadership which he said Mr Kasalwe was going
to provide.
The Chawama seat fell vacant after the then area Member of Parliament
(MP) Edgar Lungu was elected Zambia’s sixth republican president.
Great man HH
His maturity is beyond question here
Thanks

At the same gime you unleash zwdogs on ecl
LUNGU SHOULD STEP DOWN WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT. PLEASE LUNGU IF YOU LOVE ZAMBIA WE PLEAD WITH YOU TO VOLUNTARILY STEP DOWN. YOUR HEALTH CONDITION DOES NOT ALLOW YOU, EVEN THOUGH THE CONSTITUTION DOES, TO FUNCTION AS HEAD OF STATE. YOU ARE NOW A LIABILITY TO THE NATION AS OPPOSED TO BEING A SAVIOR. EDGAR LUNGU STEP DOWN. LUNGU STEP DOWN, YOU ARE SICK! PLEASE STEP DOWN IF YOU STILL WANT TO LIVE.
Keep on keeping on the walk for the people. It reminds me of President Ian Khama of Botswana who used to walk door to door in the compounds of Gaborone. This is what good leaders ought to do taking a familiarization tour of these slums.
This is what we call wisdom,president HH took a walking tour from Misisi Via Chawama to John howard.I have walked this distance before when I had no money and looking for employment as a young graduate.This distance is long and tiring.A true leader is seen from deeds.HH has a true feeling for Zambian people.He wants his MP to have a feel of what life in Chawama is.Zambians as usual it will fintu ni Lungu,my foot.Ignorance or ubututu is a big illness.Zambians lets woke up ,we don’t eat tribe,but money and Good Economy.
13.4 km wow… what a long walk!
Pray to God that the leaders we vote in should always remember the poor people (afterall the majority of leaders weren’t well-off so they can associate with problems of the poor) and take care of their needs.
Well done HH.
@ Fyanta mbuzi
And at this “gime” you been unleashed by whom?
… strange, why praise HH now? funny. Why divorce PF now?
HH has to walk because there is no fuel!
Sido mark
walichulile sana , no wonder you are bitter , take a look around you, people who grow up very poor are ever bitter .HH is an example.
@ Mushota,
Be predictable and consistent, you are pathetic to say the least! Can any sane person honestly believe what this Under Five is ranting? This HH has a personality syndrome and the “I” thing should stop! Why cant he lead his party in a mature manner where everyone can see? In one breath, his people have condemning the bye-elections and in another they still go ahead and participate in them, surely the Chawama bye elections has nothing to do with PF, except that it is inevitable because the one who held it now is our Republican President.
Further, which mode of transport did HH use in the just ended Presidential elections, wasn’t it air transport moving like a headless chicken? This man irritates me so much, he needs to grow up and should stop lying to the people.
please Akainde leave our republican President alone.
I have never known a devil to be happy when people are fine as the devil thrives on misfortunes, sickness and suffering of humans
#prayforzambia
May HH have peace and acceptance that he will always be the opposition. Thank You, Jesus.
HOW MANY PEOPLE WALK LONG DISTANCES? HH WALKS IT BECOMES NEWS? LET THE MAN DO EXERCISES AH AH! NOTING STRANGE HERE
Mr. Hichilema, you have no idea what you have put us through for failing to win that last election. We now have a collapsed president and a collapsing economy.
you don’t know what you are saying
HH nindoshi. We mushindo we
BE A CIVILISED MY DEAR ONE. UBULOSHI ONLY EXISTS IN YOUR MIND AND YOUR FAMILY HISTORY.
If an educated guy like you can behave like this what will become of the guys on the streets who not educated, just discuss issues, this will not take you anywhere.
If you have children and there are shown your comments on here, what would they make of their dad/mum.
If the things that we do when no one is seeing us that defines us.
@ 2
Are you sure HH created the concoction of ailments EL has? Everyone must know that whatever our life styles and habits are, they have consequences. Leave HH out EL’s messed up health sha!!. He got sick long before he aspired for presidency. Didn’t Masebo an insider of PF warn you?? Today you point a finger at HH.
Mushota grow up. Why does HH irritate you? You are not even mushota, you are just a jealouse Bemba. You are the people who take this country backwards because of you tribal inclinations. We need good leaders with vision. Put aside Lungu’s health, this man confessed that he had no vision for the country but PF thugs forced him on the nation. Now they (the thugs) are slowly killing him. Mr president be wise, you family needs you more than these thugs. Thank you and wish you good health.
EL’s heath is much better than some of our wives
In my village you identify a witch by how much one mourns. We have so many oppostion leaders and yet only one of them is expressing sympathy
@HH speak for yourself, our wives in good health. They eat balanced meals and exercise. This is the nature of a white woman not your black wives.
HH was hoping and praying that ECL would die. He is very disappointed.
@Zambian….
Please be fair to HH. Even if President Lungu were to die today (God forbid), HH would not be the only candidate to contest the presidency. As a matter of fact, HH would be in an awkward situation because he, and many other opposition leaders who participated in the presidential by-election need to recover financially even as they seek more money for the 2016 elections. Only people who do not appreciate democracy end up like you, hating those who participate in elections. You are the type that end up stoning a losing team in a football game. Let us be civilised, please. Of course losing is painful especially by such a small margin. Do you have to rub it in? If there were no challengers as was the case in KK’s UNIP, there would be no democracy and freedom. You want that?
The people who want EL dead are in PF. We In UPND want him alive while we prepare for 2016. By that time the failure of PF will be clear for all to see and we will have a better chance then. Also PF can get some sympathy votes which won’t be good for us. UPND needs EL alive and in charge.
If an educated guy like you can behave like this what will become of the guys on the streets who not educated, just discuss issues, this will not take you anywhere.
If you have children and there are shown your comments on here, what would they make of their dad/mum.

YES, LUNGU IS BACK, AND HE SHOULD IMMEDIATELY STEP DOWN PLEASE. LUNGU IS SICK, AND ZAMBIA CANNOT AFFORD TO ONCE AGAIN HAVE ANOTHER SICK PRESIDENT WHO IS GOING TO FINISH TAX PAYER’S MONEY ON HIS MEDICAL BILLS ONLY, WHEN THERE ARE MILLIONS MORE ZAMBIANS WHO AS WELL NEED THAT VERY MONEY FOR THEIR UP KEEP. IF LUNGU IS NOT A SELFISH AND A POWER HUNGRY INDIVIDUAL, HE WILL STEP DOWN WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT ON HEALTH GROUNDS. LUNGU’S ILLNESSES ARE PERPETUAL. HE WILL BE A SERIOUS LIABILITY IF HE IS LEFT TO SERVE IN HIS HEALTH CHALLENGING STATE.
@ Truth.
Most of the Lungu supporters are people who enjoy eating Mumalilo or at funeral houses. They cant afford descent meals in their homes. Their prayer is Nafuti Nafuti with a state funneral so that they can loot left overs. So nomatter how ill ECL will be, he will be convinced to remain standing until he drops dead.
Vernon Mwaanga has been sick for time but have you heard anyone from PF wish him dead? We all know that UPND has no slightest chance in 2016 an hence all these bad wishes on our President CHAGWA LUNGU who fortunately is fit to defeat and put the Under Five were he belongs!
Where is Maureen who was lying that she cares for women? It is really sad to have such people in our midst, and can she please return the money meant for those on ARVs please? She needs to be pursued until the owners of that money benefit from it.
The problems of Mississi, Kuku, John Howard,Chawama and the like emanate mostly on their status, Unplanned settlements or shanty townships! Whether they be termed slums or whatever term, it is very difficult to put up permanent structures where land titles or demarcations are not clear.This is why no serious investments graces these areas and people shall continue to wail for fitting amenities until the land policy is addressed.
zambia lags behind because of the material things handed during this time of elections resulting in long long parallel 13 to 20 km of fuel not to mention the depreciating kwacha.shame on pf members who are hopeless of any development.Viva HH shake them up for work.
HH being disappointed, how? when he is actually wishing the president quick recovery so that he can get to work and fulfil his promises to the zambian people. Very useles and ***** thinking by Zambian.
The health or lack of it of the President its not tied-up with the failures of promised development by the party in Government.
Tray to read English without translating to Zamglish.
We in kitwe all appreciate that mr hh,bt please try and vist the barbershop frm time to time sir,even once a month is ok
I have seen 12 year olds write much better English. Am astounded!!!
@ Enod
If you are referring to “chile1”, please don’t be harsh.
He is aspiring uneducated pf cadre hoping to become member of pf “intelligentsia”.
@Chile1….
Do you really appreciate HH in Kitwe?
About the hair, what if the man had no hair at all? Would you appreciate him? Ba Copperbelt, you also rejected Mazoka, even before the so-called tribal tag was given to UPND.
If it were the looks that matter, people would not vote for the late Sata, Mwanawasa, Chiluba, or even Banda. They would stick with KK because he has been the best in terms of looks.
Which kitwe are you talking about? Oh its kitwe and NOT Kitwe, hahaha. Our Kitwe is the bedrock of PF bwana, remember what HH did in Southern Province in January 2015 and you talk trash that “us” in kitwe appreciate how are you dreaming?
Wait for 2016 and you will see that we mean business in PF, no one should ever play in our gardens!
mr hh, please zambians know you hate lungu so much. you are the last person who can wish president lungu well. advise your watch imbwa to stop their ediotic hatrate. so pleade hh stop your lip service,when your heart is full of poison.
If an educated guy like you can behave like this what will become of the guys on the streets who not educated, just discuss issues, this will not take you anywhere.
If you have children and there are shown your comments on here, what would they make of their dad/mum.
If the things that we do when no one is seeing us that defines us.
HE PROBABLY SAID THIS WITH A FORKED TONGUE.
Familiar with the forked tongue syndrom. Or are you speaking from experience – a close relative of yours or maybe yourself?
13.4 Kilometers? Sounds like a very fit man, a person who has made good choices in life and is FIT for office in every way conceivable!
Definitely not in need of “clear bill of health” from failed health system.
It’s very difficult to believe that such a statement is genuine because of the insults and death wish over EL by ZWD who happen to be ardent supporters of HH.
Just crocodile tears. I bet if ECL died today HH would the first to file his nomination for the by election.
Just crocodile tears. I bet if ECL died today HH would be the first to file his nomination for the by election.
just take a step back and listen to yourself: ” insults and death wish over EL(sic) by ZWD who HAPPEN to be ardent supporters of HH”
Right now your PF is claiming that all sorts of criminals are hiding behind the PF name whenever they commit crimes just because they are in power and they have no control over them.
The ZWD is an amorphous entity and just because they happen to be sympathetic to HH at this time does not make them answerable to him. So please change your reasoning
Guilty by unproven association?
Accused, Judged and found Guilty by “learned” neutral members of pf “intelligentsia” “change” and “Ndaje Kahks”, Bravo
I see a favourable comment from Mushota whom we all know did not have kind words for HH during the reign of the late Michael Sata. I believe she means well. So it is not correct to say because the Watchdog allegedly supports HH, he cannot wish the President good health. How you want to believe that HH hates the President so that you can justify your own hatred and violence against the UPND. HH is not an enemy of Zambia. He is a Zambian competing with other politicians. Your singling out this man for targeted hate and slander only proves the allegations that the largely bemba speaking Lusaka, Copperbelt and the Northern regions voted tribaly in the recent by-elections. You make people believe this. The man is only offering himself.
HHs dressing, awe sure! He has so much money but the man looks dirty all the time. Two suits, three shirts and one pair of shoes for 5 years.
if i were HH, i would take this as a compliment. i cannot claim to be as rich as HH but coincidentally, i only have 1 suit ( which i have only worn twice in the last five years) 4 pairs of trousers, 2 pairs of shoes and 5 pairs of shirts. My latest financial statement from my accountant is a plus $1,800,000 which is no where near HH’s worth but decent for zambian standards. My point being, that the amount of clothing is probably in the low 5% by zambian standards and yet my earning is in the top 5% by zambian standards. To be honest with you, thoughts of clothes are like number 99 on my priority list of thoughts. It’s like I don’t even have the time to think such thoughts
So? maybe that qualifies me to be a satanist!
@JJ, busy counting clothes? Proverbs 13:7 says
There is one who pretends to be rich and yet has nothing; another pretends to be poor and yet possesses great wealth.
And where do you @ JJ fall under??
At least he did not wait to get to the State House before learning how to dress.
By the way, did you see yesterday somebody with horizontally striped golf shirt and suit?
If you are a Rancher you have got to be tough, go check it out in Dallas.
Oh! Really bwana Halibelela Hukulusa HH? I honestly doubt your joy!
Meanwhile I expect nothing less that proper whipping of dishonest chaps in the energy (fuel) sector from bamwine H.E. ECL. We need to arrest the situation; effect sound reforms if necessary. Twatukwa pafula!
…Regardless of who is at the helm of UPND, the party has got a very good plan for Zambia.
VIVA UPND!! VIVA HH!!
Let not the sin you are slapping on others fallow you. you have to be very genuine when you say even when HH says what he said it was a lie, IT IS ONLY THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT SEARCHES EVERY PERSON’S HEART. WELL LET US SEE WHAT NEXT LUNGU HAS ON THE TABLE FOR US, FOR HE HAS QUITE A LOT TO ACCOMPLISH BEFORE THE PROPOSED 2016 ELECTIONS. AS ZAMBIANS , I KNOW WE ARE A POLARISED PEOPLE FOR WE ARE ALWAYS SCARED OF THE UNKNOWN, EVEN WHEN THINGS ARE STRIGHT FORWARD.
@ JJ, I told you to stop getting high by sniffing your faecal matter in the toilet. Sometimes it is good to just keep quite if you have nothing to comment about.
For Gods sake let HH start enjoying his money. Whats the point of having so much money which you can’t enjoy. Anyway its typical of Tongas, plenty of cattle but always dressed in rugs.
@ 19 Voice of reason
Is JJ being troublesome?
There is a belief that juju money cannot be used for clothes otherwise you will become insane. You only use it as per instruction from the sangoma.
@Ndaje Kahks,
And you think you comment was smart or dumB?
@pretty- just a thought on @ jj and bare foot. Is that myth true or simply a myth?
Speaking from experience I suppose.
@20.2 Ndaje Khaks
Don’t understand what you are trying to say. Can you rephrase?
That coming from Hypnotised Hyena? Not genuine empathy, this guy is a pretender!
And you would know that? ehh prophet by any chance.
HH what has really changed? You never wished Sata good health and always you wished dead. Any way good you have changed if indeed its true best wishes you are sending coz we know that your wishes are diluted by your ZWD who always want Lungu dead. You must tell Zambians why you e-paper and cadres are wishing the opposite.
Peace and Prosperity to Mother Zambia
@Truth Hates……
You are a misleading and big lying mouth!! Produce a quote and source. You hide behind a pseudo name and lie through you teeth. If you were courageous you would come in the open and, of course end with a court case for slander and lose. That is hate speech. Zambians are peaceful people, other wise your postings and those of JJ, Gen, Haleisa Halenya were enough to endanger the life of this innocent Zambian whose only crime to you is to participate in politics and score points.
Is HH responsible for ECVL’s condition? Why all this hate speech?
Good call HH. You have shown leadership here for wishing your opponent good health. This kind of positive massage is what we expect from an aspiring candidate. Now if you really want to be a president of Zambia condemn publicly the negative and evil stuff from ZWD on EL. That is un Zambian and as long as you keep your mouth shut about ZWD, everyone view you as their sponsor and it will be difficult for you to lead this country. Secondly publicly denounce tribal utterances from the likes of Mr. Munkombwe and Malupi and really the presidency will be yours to lose. When Obama campaigned for presidency the first thing he did was to distance himself from only being black but sold himself as an American first. Sell your self as a Zambian first and distance yourself from tribal sentiments. Get it
Who is hh decieving . HH is the guy giving zwd useless data to write ill about the President and he comes with a forced smile on his face like his from a public toilet ati I wish lungu a quick recovery. A quick recovery when you and zwd on the other side you are saying the opposite. Fuuuulish rantings by this guy. Today thats when you ve seen it wise to visit chawama and canvas it because you don’t want to spend money knowing on an election you already know that you are losing. We know that you are just applying economics here. Just concede defeat and stop pretending.
@ 24 Sponge bob
Sponge, you sound most dreadful of ZWD, don’t you!
this satanist HH cannot blindfold us.he thinks we are fools? he is busy wishing Lungu dead so that he can feast on his blood and sacrifice Zambia to the devil.we know he is behind the deaths of Mwanawasa,Sata and chiluba and he created a satanic site ZWD to spread his demonic messages.
ADVANCED THROAT CANCER! AND OTHER DISEASES INCLUDING THIS FAMOUS NOTORIOUS HIV AND AIDS. DO YOU THINK HE WILL SURVIVE EVEN IF YOU WISH HIM LIFE? FACE REALITY. INDIA AND PAKISTAN TRY TO OPERATE THROAT CANCERS, BUT MANY PATIENTS END UP DYING. THIS EXPLAINS WHY LUNGU REFUSED TO GO FOR OPERATION. ADVISE YOUR LUNGU TO PLEASE STEP DOWN IF HE WANTS TO PROLONG HIS LIFE.
ARBITRATOR: All said and done, remember that we are made made wise not by the the recollection of the past but by the responsibility of the future. Further, a wise man does give the right answer but poses the right questions. Where do stand?
PF presidents are not made sick or die from bad wishes from those opposing them. PF cadres are typical like wizards. Late Sata was advised by opposition to disclose sickness to nation for meaningful national prayers, advised to take it easy by relinquishing leadership, take long leave of absence of rest and delegate powers according to the provisions of the constitution. In return PF cadres spewed foul mouthing to opposition that they were bitter, jealous and njala yabanyokola. PF went berserk wielding pangas, guns and all sorts of weapons to hack any one talking about sickness of Sata.
The question is asked, who really quickened Sata’s trip to embassy park? PF cadres can not be honest, its PF that wished Sata dead soonest. Today, PF want president E.C Lungu dead soonest.
ARBITRATOR: All said and done, remember that we are made made wise not by the the recollection of the past but by the responsibility of the future. Further, a wise man does not give the right answer but poses the right questions. Where do you stand?
In the village when one leaves the hospital comes back home the witch is always the first to visit. Watch out for satanic HH, sources have it that all the accidents that take place they are caused by him hence he is being the first to portray as if he means well for EL Classical. My people watch out this man is evil, we all may be evil but he is more evil.
Thanks!
@ 29 Chairman
You are spuriously superstitious.
But this man is very untidy and extremely dirty. I wonder how the wife survives the stench from his pants. Nganiulya kamwefu Banda awe sure ni vigo
@ 30 Zemuntu changed to Jacombian Transform
Sad comment. Hope HH can take note and change.
TRUE OR FALSE? A fool is a person who ignores information because it disagrees with with his desired result.
Well done HH.
Your wishes for the President are also genuine. Those who hate you are disappointed that you could wish the President good health. Never mind, when did they ever wish you well, let alone listen to what you say. They are the ones being eaten by hatred and tribalism. Continue being yourself. They got scared to see you walking with the people. Had it been during the Sata/Kabimba era you would have been teargassed, beaten, stoned and thereafter arrested for violating the Public Order Act. Thank you President Lungu for bringing sanity back into the Police Service!!!!!
All those throwing mud at HH should just get up and start working hard. Go to him and ask for advice, he can mentor you. The problem with us is that we look at successful people with disdain, instead of learning something from them. We are comfortable to be greeting each other, ‘chikulu bwacha’. The truth is, if we had more people of HH’s calibre, this country would be moving at a different level. It is a vicious cycle. Poverty breeds hopelessness and any attempt to genuinely alleviate this is looked at with contempt. We are like a people in a trance. But who will sansakuwa us out of this and when? HH is simply trying to come in and make a difference. There are a lot of rich people who just sit back, manipulate things from the background, enjoy their money. Zambians, wake up!
A FOOL is a person who ignores information because it disagrees with desired result. TRUE OR FALSE?
We wish Chagwa a quick recovery and good health. Let him, however, step down to avoid a power crisis like we experienced when Sata died. This will ensure smooth transition. He can call for general elections within the next six months as the constitution empowers him to do that. And please PF cadres don’t argue about the fact that Lungu is gravely ill; we can all see his body language. We don’t want a situation where the president will be away days on end and you will be telling us he is out in London jogging when he is on a life support machine. Please Lungu you lied about your health but it’s not too late to redeem yourself
WHY DO YOU WISH HIM DEAD?
One day [and I can sense that day is soon], HH will walk away from all this, hang his gloves so to say, and we shall all see the missed opportunity. Am firmly convinced that we need to try HH, much as some people do not relish such an undertaking, and see a course change. Demonizing such a man who is one of us will not do as it is working to our own disadvantage. The question that begs an answer is: What is the real fear?
Demonizing????? Go tell that to the journalists at ZWD!
Icilema is a double tongued character. Tomorrow, just nombaline, President Lungu’s health will be a big item in upnd’s political campaigns. Ba upnd tebantu bakwenekela mufintu ifili fyonse!
@ 37 Chitutuma
Please check your facts again. Icilema and Hichilema are two different individuals all together. Try not to confuse the duo.
HH takatekepo!!!!!! he is a reject
YEEEEEEEES HE IS A REJECT
HH stop pretending ,I know in your heart you are hating that Chagwa is well and very fit, you thought he would die so you take over. shame on you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yours is to be in the opposition till christ returns. its PF NAFUTI NAFUTI , wina Azalila come 2016!!!!!!!!
Waste of time.
Was it not the UPND and ZWD THAT MADE FUN OF THE PEOPLE OF Chawama during the inauguration? Accusing them of misbehaviour at Statehouse, stealing guest food for diplomats??
Now they are ‘poor’ people who need rescuing! That’s the strange thing about UPND, they insult people and are generally unpleasant as a modusnoperandi, but come an election…..out they go to the same people to campaign for votes.
UPND think the ‘little poor’ people have short memories.
Kolopa dotcom again!
It also shows that HH is fit. Can others walk this kms? Following day they will have pains all over their bodies and perhaps never walk again.
Of course the likes of Munkombwe and the other obese UpeNd MPs can’t cover that distance. Ever wondered why your HH is always alone during campaigns?
He has been ‘declared fit’ , let him also walk that distance then he will put to rest all speculation. There will be no need for spin-doctors feeding us with half-truths
hh is our man full of WISDOM.
depending ON THE SITUATION IN 2016, I will give my vote Edith Nawakwi not HH- never in my life time
and you will continue suffering
Zambian’s should Stop being tribal, & for a change in 2016, vote H.H.
Apart from potentially being the best Zambian capable of turning our ailing economy around, H.H. has proved he is a fit & Healthy Man!!
A sizeable amount of leaders in Zambia today, cannot Walk that distance, due to serious health issues.
MAYBE ZAMBIA NEEDS TO ASK PROSPECTIVE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES TO WALK A DISTANCE OF 20 km, & if one does not manage, then Kuyabebele, as we are tired of -Walking Dead Presidents in State House, which has been turned into an expensive Hospice, funded by the struggling Zambian Taxpayer!!!
People who truly hate EL are those who force matters so that he becomes president even when they knew that is was sick! In trying to hate HH by not voting for him they endup punishing EL with a heavy burden of presidency just like they did for Sata!
How do some of you end up using such unpalatable language? Why don’t you guys put forward your arguments in a constructive way? Ultimately,support of a candidate should be based on what they are doing to improve the lives of the common man. It’s not about being tribal or anything at all.
Lungu rode on a ticket of continuity and improving the lives of the people. So far so good???????
He’s entering in the third month of his reign, who has benefited from his presidency so far? him- Lungu,like any other predictable politician, has quickly rushed to use health care facilities in another country (RSA),which has GOOD QUALITY LEADERSHIP and have invested in health services. What about the rest of you who lined up to vote? where do you run to when you are sick?
Fairview Hospital. Excellent service and care. Went there for treatment for hyperthyroidism and was subsquently operated.
The level of hate speech among bloggers really surprises me. People who know this man can attest that he is a really down to earth man. HH was even rich before he started active politics when Mazoka was still alive. Did people know about HH. The trouble is that Zambian are very lazy and jealous people who only think one can get rich by either being a Satanist or a thief. There are people who make it through struggles and hard work. This reminds me one point, one I visited Lusaka to work on my house, I decided to have a drink at a nearby pub after a hard days work. Guess what people were wondering who the owner of the upcoming house is, others were even concluding that he is a Satanist, yet I got a loan from the bank to put up the structure. To them to be rich one needs to be a Satanist.
@chester, you have hit the nail on he head. If things continue like this- where no matter how bad the country is being governed- and some people still talk of ifintu ni…..and kolopa.com, then we shall just have to sit at a round table and say: Gentlemen and women, let us cut the country in half so that other people can remain with their ifintu and others can now be free to work hard and prosper. They can kolopa all they want and we shall work harder and harder into prosperity. As we bypass them, we shall even wave bye bye.
Siambwende I agree with you. We are sick and tired of this mentality in Zambia where we are only seeing tribe in people. People knew very well Lungu had no leadership qualities and had health issues yet they went ahead and voted for him. Even now when they can clearly see he is terminally ill some people are even talking of 2016 with him. What kind of id!ocy is this? The economy right now is in dire straits yet their Lungu has no plan for the country except pursuing the DPP for the sake of RB. Zambians your thinking is sickening to say the least.
Then, they will come to work as expatriates to do the little, little things hard workers cannot do!
Fully agree with 47, 48, & 48;1
Majority of Zambians need another 100 years, before they get enlightened enough to see, & vote for whats in their best interest.
At present You have a lot of unfortunate, Compound/ Slum dwellers, who will not vote for a leaders policies/ integrity, but a Slogan i.e “Kolopa Dot Com”
These poor citizens believe “Ni yi kali zina ya kolopa dot com” – so nipamene ti za vota, & as a result the chance to be redeemed from poverty, & ignorance is missed forever. When they see the enlightened prospering they are quick to lob superstitious accusations of “Satanist, Wizard”, etc
Even an 8 year old child in a developed country, is able to tell you, Witchcraft, & such silly beliefs are total fiction, only found in Harry Potter childrens…
Continued;
Harry potter childrens books.
When we get some tribal sayings such as Ifintu ni Lungu’ know there is no thinking but spread of mob ignorance and exploitation of poor simple people.
Intelligence and competency of individuals is blanked out to Zambians rendering them prey to crooks being voted as leaders in our nation.
@ 50 Aquilla
Yes, the tribal mindset is bewitching Zambians.
we all know you HH VERY WELL,you are trying to be the good man that you are not.Leave my president alone .just continue with your campaigns ,we all know what you did to my relatives in namwala ,thats why up to now its a no go area for you..your man will lose lamentably…i hope you will then know how unpopular you are .
