I look outside my office and look at these pictures and one word spring to mind ‘Suffering’ and trust me when I am saying this because i have experiences the life of both worlds and although l love visiting zambia, it is suicide to plan living there for the rest of my life.

These photos are really depressing – a foreigner who has never visited Zambia may be excused for thinking we are very wealthy when he/she reads that our president has pledged $90K to each of our lazy national football players and an overall total of $2 million to bring the AFCON trophy.
All that precious water in Chipata going to waste….that could be retained and used for irrigation or commercial uses in the coming dry months!!
#46 Comment By john On February 22, 2013 @ 4:18 am
Picture 20,27 and 28 clearly paints that situation that zambia is in.The govt both past and present have failed the people of zambia.The billions of kwachas that MMD and PF has wasted on the useless constitution review commission can be channeled to bring health development in these places.These two parties have spent billions of kwachas on ink,paper and microphone and nothing has comeout that is meaningful and progressive whilst people are dying sleeping on the floor with no healthcare.The local members of parliament receive billions in CDF and people locally do not even have both access and available to minimal healthcare.This is a shame and a failure of common sense.
#47 Comment By Odi On February 22, 2013 @ 1:00 am
I Agree with the Prince, Robinson Zulu is a thief , he stole from DBZ and ran away to the UK and stayed until everything was forgotten, Zambians have a short memory , then stole from people. The donating is not genuine, why call a press inference just because you have given peanuts? I would respect him if he had done in annomously, the bible says when you give something with your right hand do not met your left hand know about it. He is a show off. Wait for for your turn to answer corruption charges regarding the land you took From NAPSA.
#48 Comment By Odi On February 22, 2013 @ 1:05 am
Sorry I meant press conference! Mr Robinson Zulu, if you do good deeds, do not show off or expect people to praise and worship you, do it genuinely with no ulterior motive. Posting a picture with journalists on LT about your donations is pathetic. Please donate more money for the dual carriage from Lusaka to Ndola that would be very helpful and would prevent accidents.

I cry for you young girl lying on the ground waiting to be attended to and you poor widows who have been evicted and also you guys who are driving used Japanese cars and riding bicycles in the mud as if your country has not enough resources. We have enough resources to enjoy better lives but unfortunately we are poor up their to manage them properly and share the resources equitably.

You can tell from the pictures that most people are failing to keep their heads above waters.Masebo bleaching your skin? you must be above that naimwe ,and drop the fake hair.Natural is beautiful.

Sad pictures that should stir up every man on Lusaka times. Women as well. Send text books and computers for study to your relatives. Ndalama ba mwela. This only opens up our eyes to the truth and hard work.
2) why is Africa inviting American, Asian and european defense cheifs. We are free let’s draw up laws to make our own continental defense.

These photos are really depressing – a foreigner who has never visited Zambia may be excused for thinking we are very wealthy when he/she reads that our president has pledged $90K to each of our lazy national football players and an overall total of $2 million to bring the AFCON trophy.
All that precious water in Chipata going to waste….that could be retained and used for irrigation or commercial uses in the coming dry months!!

Picture 20,27 and 28 clearly paints that situation that zambia is in.The govt both past and present have failed the people of zambia.The billions of kwachas that MMD and PF has wasted on the useless constitution review commission can be channeled to bring health development in these places.These two parties have spent billions of kwachas on ink,paper and microphone and nothing has comeout that is meaningful and progressive whilst people are dying sleeping on the floor with no healthcare.The local members of parliament receive billions in CDF and people locally do not even have both access and available to minimal healthcare.This is a shame and a failure of common sense.

I Agree with the Prince, Robinson Zulu is a thief , he stole from DBZ and ran away to the UK and stayed until everything was forgotten, Zambians have a short memory , then stole from people. The donating is not genuine, why call a press inference just because you have given peanuts? I would respect him if he had done in annomously, the bible says when you give something with your right hand do not met your left hand know about it. He is a show off. Wait for for your turn to answer corruption charges regarding the land you took From NAPSA.

Sorry I meant press conference! Mr Robinson Zulu, if you do good deeds, do not show off or expect people to praise and worship you, do it genuinely with no ulterior motive. Posting a picture with journalists on LT about your donations is pathetic. Please donate more money for the dual carriage from Lusaka to Ndola that would be very helpful and would prevent accidents.
