How many more remaining to keep him away from Lusaka and Zesco problems.
Ati “supporting the UPND in the 2026 elections”; so the motive is campaign and not necessarily promoting national unity. How I wish the talk could be walked on the ground, as talk alone is absolutely cheap.
He is on his mission again
Loadshedding ??? He has heard of it but never experienced it
How many traditional ceremonies do we have
In a year? Does our hard working president
Have to attend each and every?
