From the Guardian-Observer Newspaper of 9/10/2010
“Brazil’s hugely popular president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, WHO IS OF VERY MODEST EDUCATION, leaves a nation looking to the future with hope and a new confidence after an eight-year reign that is entering its final moments.He is best known for helping his country’s more than 20 million poor Brazilians hauled out of poverty since coming to power. He leaves office.with an approval rating of 81%,”
Yet our RB (With Degrees) thinks he will improve our country’s economy and lift the 8m poor Zambians out of poverty by globe trotting.
What myopic reasoning???
Rubbish RB you are the worst president Zambia will ever have.
# 3 Irrational that boy in white is one of RB Grandson he plays soccer in spain and that picture is from last week RB trip to Nigeria.
Mr Mileage Bwezani Rupiah Banda his presidential jet mileage has surpassed Obama’s airforce one mileage.Can the office of the auditor general disclose how much tax payers money has been spent on all RB trips from the time he has been president?
So whats the point here????? WTF cares what this MF does with taxpayers money anymore? He doesnt care about the country, he is just after enjoying himself and propping up his pockets. One thing for sure, taxpayers money is never enough and nobody has even spent it unblemished, bwezani you are no exception, your day is coming.
Someone really needs to put a leash on this stray DOG
How many frequent flier miles does Rupiah Banda have? He seems to have more flying hours than the pilots that fly his plane.
thankz mwiponta no. 8. well, this maybe the Zambia we want
twaba pa lwendo
Taking off and landing is the order of the day. How many planes has he? If it is only one I’m worried about its mechanical fitness and one wonders if there is ever time to have it fully serviced.
RB fears t ghost of Levy at state house. Thats why he is every day in the air. Very soon you will have a presidential bye election as the jet is no longer fit for it does not go for mentenece.
RB is the most useless president Zambia has ever produced.
This Chi Matha faka has really show the world just how useless we are,the character of a Zambian . Irresponsible,passive,reckless,lazy,docile,weak, opportunistic, stupid, dependent, greedy….. fuking ass hole is what this man is, he knows no shame.
My friends, let us not judge this man harshly b4 gathering all facts. Maybe it’s something mental, some tiny component missing in the vacuum between his ears….a brain maybe. He might be in need of genuine medical help.
LT YOU MISSED SOME STUFF!!!
