Marapodi residents of Lusaka’s Mandevu Constituency yesterday complained about the poor road network and drainage system in the area.
This was when UPND President Hakainde Hichilema continued his countrywide community tours of thanking voters and meeting UPND officials.
Some residents also regreted their voting decisions last elections and asked for forgiveness from Mr. Hichilema.
And Mr. Hichilema, who toured Chifundo Market where he admired some sofas, chairs, and other carpentry products proposed setting up of a small loan scheme for small businesses in Zambia to make them grow and create employment opportunities for more youths in Zambia.
Mr. Hichilema also called for soft loan schemes for women and youths to venture into productive business opportunities and make them suppliers to government departments.
And the Apostle Faith group of Mandevu complained about the difficulties they were having to get NRCs for their children because they do not have birth certificates.
They said their faith encourages women to give birth in their homes as a result they don’t get birth certificates.
The Mandevu residents also complained of the high cost of living in the country.
And in a meeting with UPND party officials in Mandevu Constituency’s Justine Kabwe ward, Mr. Hichilema told them to work hard and embrace every Zambian so as to liberate the country from economic mess.

The trend of primitive Zambian men stripping women naked in public is not right and it should be stopped!!
Mobs of classless stinking men surround a beautiful woman and rip away her clothes until she is naked.
Primitive Zambian man be civilized its none of their business what someone is wearing.
Shame on these lowlifes, when did anyone’s dressing became another person’s business?
These savages are potential rapists who should rot in jail
The last time i checked God created us naked and in African culture women wore bark-skin “G-String” IMIBINDE & topless… Chitenge’S AND SALAULA WERE BROUGHT TO YOU BY FOREGINERS
Shame on you Zambian idÎots!!
Way to go HH, our true Zambian president
How desire you call this gesture which was done to assist your country to be independent primitive… this is the sad part of being too political.
HH won the January elections but a Zimbabwean fellow manipulated the results in favour of Lungu and the whole PF knows that. I know this because his relative told me how much this guy made out of this exercise.
HH has every chance to win these elections if and only if, we have independent international monitors comprising of the Jimmy Carter foundation at Mulungushi totalling centre.
What will happen this time is that most UPND MPs will be elected but president will not win if the manipulation of figures like the one that took place in January is allowed .
However its good to see the amount of support HH is gaining day by day. People are slowly realising that PF is party of selfish f00ls who only want their families to benefit from the suffering of the poor.
Another ignorant African!
That is what you have been made to believe that everything good was brought to you by the white one. Read your history!
Know where you come from. If your bible is true, the bible speaks of god instructing adam to kill animals, eat of its flesh and use skin for clothing. How long ago was that? How come you forgot to dress when you got to Africa. See how your religion and reality conflict? Read your history. Whiteman te munobe you like praising masiku onse!
But surely why should you insult all of us including yourself and our leaders. Repent ! otherwise what you have uttered is not right both in the Sight of God and Man.
Ba HH, i salute you for your resoluteness and i honestly think you can do something for this country. i also know that to do something very realistically, you need tax payers money but i also think you can showcase this by setting up small revolving funds or machinery like peanut butter making machines which can be loaned to such women and they pay back to others such as what we call pass on the gift approach. all you need is about 100,000 kwacha to demonstrate this in one area. i am told you’re doing so much for the community in SP, but i feel for you to really demonstrate your approaches in business growth and acumen, you have to start this in Lusaka and then roll it over to other areas
My friend, you are asking something very difficult for HH to do. The guy is a capitalist, he cannot do something for nothing. If he cannot get a profit from it, he will not do it. Currently, he is just politicking. He cannot put up such kind of initiatives you are talking about. What has he done for UPND youths as an example? Nothing. The best he can do is steal classified information.
This is what we should expect from this capitalist. He will want to get more capital from presidency. A capitalist, will always amass more wealth. HH is a full time capitalist. All his doing now is not for the Zambian people but for himself. If he becomes President, UPND member will be surprised how he will forget them. He is a capitalist.
YAH CONCENTRATE ON SUCH AREAS AND CONTINUE HAMMERING OTHERWISE KABWATA,LUSAKA CENTRAL,KANYAMA AND MUNALI ARE RIPE FOR YOU,ESPECIALLY WITH THE COMING ON BOARD OF GUY SCOUT 2016 PF KUYABEBELE.
This man has my vote. I like what he is doing and he should not even pay attention to those people who always say bad things about him. Zambia will be a better place when HH becomes the President. This is my opinion.
We want him also to visit us in Avondale, Roma, Kabulonga etc. Or Sorry we will not be home as we will be busy at work. And for the few that might be home we will be locked inside to notice such madness.
You’re locking up yourself in your own home!
Yakunyokola Njala Iwe! You don’t even know whether you’re working or not iwe poor PF cadres. You can’t hide from house to house b’coz of your phobia of HH, get used as he will be president. Whether PF likes it or not, 2016 PF is history.
“us in Avondale, Roma, Kabulonga”! Be specific if its kwakamanga, kwamtonyo,n’gombe or kalikiliki.
After all, you didn’t vote for HH, hence you’re not enlisted to be thanked. Just go & enjoy with your Chama, Kambwili, Faze Bwalya or Shamenda.
Run & hide, but not limited to, sooner or later you will out of you cacophony.
Come what may, PF will be dethroned democratically.

We have heard that before since Mazoka or if I can even dig dipper in History, Nkubula
HH you are a real man, continue with you community service.
My family of 10 has this year resolved to vote for HH, we are going to register as voters. Come next year 10 votes added, Zambia needs serious people not everyday in camera ni swearing in ceremony while the economy is in folded hands
me and my household 15 votes added.
People have just done a donchi kubeba on hh. If what he is doing is attracting anyone to his party, lets see what the june by elections will say.
Looks like you are very unsettled with what HH is doing. HH has already recovered the 27,000 votes that were stolen from him,come 2016 pf kuyabebele even your chagwa knows this plain truth.
@ Spongy Bob, mind the gap between the teeth! Are there elections in Lusaka?
HH IS THE MAN OF THE PEOPLE! ZAMBIA NEEDS SUCH A PERSON TO BE ITS PRESIDENT. DOWN TO EARTH, AND THAT IS LEADERSHIP.
Whatever the results of what HH is doing, anyone who is genuine can see that he is humble, not proud, not tribal, mixes with anyone no matter the age, wealth etc, can walk where our underpriviledged brothers and sisters are suffering. Obviously these visits are a plus for him.
Who told you that Hichilema is humble? Just by visiting the people in their homes in order to win them does not make him humble. Ask us who have relatives who worked for this man this man shall never be humble. Even in 2016 he will lose and am sure he knows it himself. The tours he is making in compounds will not achieve him any thing. He is just competing for a second position with Nawakwi and Kabimba not a match to PF. ECL is very much far ahead by 2016 no one will talk. He failed to win when he was the only well funded candidate in the race with a long period of campaign. ECL with little resources and on the party full of confusion by then won. The greatest hindrance for Hichilema is tribalism and Zambian Watch dog his mouth piece which only preaches hate against other tribes.
Lwengele, you are wrong. The biggest hinderance to HH being president are the dull people on the ground that have their votes bought by a few containers of chibuku and a few kwachas. The biggest hinderance are the uneducated masses who outnumber the educated ones, masses that think only shortterm just like this government does. The hand-to-mouthers.
@Lwengelele
I am confused. Is HH tribalist? Against which tribe? What evidence do you have?
Is HH not humble? What evidence do you have?
I know HH to be a savvy business man. I think we need a aggressive person to look poverty in the eye and say, ” You are dead!”
After 10 years, we want him to ask, “Poverty, where is thy sting?”
My children will not eat humble, but they will be fed if I have somebody who frowns upon and attacks poverty with all his might.
The best candidate in my view, HH
@ Lwengele so you have relatives that once worked for HH and they fed you with information that he does not qualify to be called humble! My guess is yours are lazy relatives who got employed hoping they’d reap from HH without hard work! HH worked for what he has built and I guess any successful business man expects every ngwee he pays out to count for something! Lwengele your relatives were shown the door for their incompetence otherwise like those still being employed by HH they would have stayed!
Where tribalism is concerned you Lwengele and your likes who keep accusing HH as tribal are the tribal pillars actually hate mongers who lack fact for you just parrot ‘tribalism’ for the sake of it! Does HH only employ those of his tribe? Let alone interact with only those of his tribe?
HH is the man to liberate Zambia from poverty. Keep going HH. 2016 is your year.
How about helping the villagers you robbed of their crops man!
You’re just a kaponya, you know nothing about animal husbandry.
Primitivity will choke you & njala yakunyokola with intoxication of tunji njili mambala Iwe!
Seriously not so shocking typical of PF cadre mentality.

2016 is the most promising election period for HH compared to the last four attempts if the above comments are anything to go by. The ball is now in his court to rectify his previous miscalculations.
Its good that someone is going to the grassroot and seeing what actually is happening to the people of this country, while others, who have the capacity to help improve the situation have embraced the company of foreigners and rich individuals. you have seen it all my brother, when that time comes when you seat on that chair, please continue to go back these people and fulfil whatever you possibly can to bring them back to humanity. God is great. The cries of children are not in vain. it shall come to pass. Amen.
26 votes for HH from my family members
Only the wise will appreciate HH, But the foolish will always say bad work against HH. You have my vote brother.viva HH
Fault finders find nothing but faults. It is important to appreciate the little that a person does. As you may be aware, no person can be 100% correct and vice versa. I always hear people talking about tribalism. In my view, I feel the one who talks about tribalism advocates for it. It is sad that the people who talk about tribalism do not even know the concept of tribalism. They forget that they are tribal themselves. Zambian languages are all Bantu languages and hence they have the same ancestor.
People must apply the norm of universalism and avoid emotions and other external factors to find faults where they do not exist. Sometimes, psychology is very important. I feel people comment or utter what they do due to some psychological factors that influence them. One God…. one Zambia…
Even in my dream I can’t vote for HH and UPND never never never!
So Charity Katanga was right after all, for if UPND officials were to be believed how would HH be carrying out these tours? He would have locked out by now, wouldn’t he?
Thank you Ms Katanga for your professionalism, you have shamed the liars. But then then these liars have no iota of shame do they? It doesn’t exist in their vocabulary.
Katanga said it was so that police could provide security. Do you see a resemblance of police presence in the pictures?
The problem with HH is that he is always taken by surprise at the critical moment, i.e. in those few times when he is not disappointing potential supporters. Now that is hardly material for President, is it?
LIATO is back, DORA is back, RB is back and the list is endless. ZAMBIA is a shop to share. WHERE do we go from here man.
Pf is already looking for ways to rig the 2016 election. Zambians know that the previous pf/presidential elections were crookedly won. The opposition should work hard to seal the loopholes of rigging. The selective issuance of NRCs is already an indication that pf is up to s/thing. There is no one spared of hunger even in the pf strongholds, many will vote for the opposition. In your tours encourage the youths to obtain nrcs & register to vote enmass. With an upward adjustment on retirement age, the youths are feeling the side effects of not being employed.
We are patiently waiting to start our campaign. This time we are only allowing political amateurs to dance themselves lame before the main dance.
UPND is naive. Just HH visiting Marapodi is like they have won 2016 elections. Anyone can visit any place but it does not directly translate into an electoral support. Sometimes, such visits expose ones weaknesses only to be exploited by your opponents. This a weakness with HH and UPND, they think starting first will make you win.
Remember, last time HH lost to a mere minister, now you will dealing with a sitting President. Do not think he does know what HH is doing how to outplay him. Just wait and see.
And KK lost to a trade unionist, RB to a former Minister without potifolio, whats your point?
What I mean is that stage managed tours, will only remain an academic exercise. HH is only a tourist and this has no effect on the popularity of PF. It is clear that HH goes with his group of supporters wherever he goes. I have seen buses of people from the compounds being loaded and ferried to these events.
Talking of FTJ. MMD was leading a revolutionary movement at the time. There is nothing similar to that today. Sata was more formidable than Banda. I do not think HH is so strong to defeat EL in 2016. His language is too technical for common people. HH has an uphill battle to bring in new ideas. When PF campaigns start, whatever HH is doing now will erased. HH is selling himself and not the party. That is a mistake.
This article is written by UPND media team so they repeat some words as if those are words from the poor.these are prearranged articles!!!TRIBAL HH WONT WIN IN 2016-NEVER NEVER NEVER!!!NO MATTER HOW HH PRETENDS TO CARE FOR THE POOR,HE WILL NEVER GET MY VOTE DUE TO HIS TRIBALISM AND HISTORY OF BENEFITING FROM SALE OF PUBLIC COMPANIES!!!i would rather vote for a dog than giving my vote to tribal HH!!!
Whether HH wins or not does not mitigate the facts of how PF has failed.
BAKATEKA BAKUDYA BEKA!
Umutonga wena twamukana, hh can’t be trusted. Come 2016 its ECL all the way.pipo in northen, luapula, lusaka, c/b, eastern muchinga will never, never, never, never vote for a tonga like hh who is so tribalistic. Its colopa dot com in 2016 .
