    • Zambia has now a right president, Guy Scott. He is hardworking man. Change fast-track constitution so he can be stand as republic president in 2016.

    • I look forward to Bob Mugabe ‘s take on Guy Scott being the only White representative of an African nation.

      I hope Guy Scott will not be told off by Bob.

      Kalaba has refused to go because he afraid of answering questions as to why SATA is in hiding.

      Americans , British and Israelites know the truth about what happened to SATA in June.

      The fact is SATA never came back from Israel. If he is not dead , he is hooked to a machine undergoing coma therapy, to allow the multiple transplanted organs to adapt with minimum interruptions.

      Remember the Israelites kept one of their leaders for 7 years hooked on the machine. Thats why Kaseba chose Israel as the last resort to revive SATA after collapsing at 02.00.

  1. Azamwalila Guy Scott travelling like ths sungaleme mwebantu !!
    More over Mugabe will chase you coz u r white by skin Mugabe usually pukes whn he sees a White man.

    Viva New Blood Viva UPND !.

  2. That is OK. Guy is Veep, and a good guy at his job. This is normal. If the President is not in the mood to go, the veep or any appointed minister can be delegated.

    Thanks

  3. Do we have a president in this country?

    Why is Mr Sata neglecting his duties?

    Other countries will be represented by presidents and not their deputies. Our president could not attend the US-Africa Summit and now he cant even make just here in Zimbabwe? Something must be very wrong!!!

    • We Zambians are worried for the president’s position. Is PF really a government of truthful people? Sickness is natural and there is no need to hide his where about. Telling us the truth about the where about of the president will cool the national question which is now leading to discredit the team of government ministers. Why hide and seek? Akabwambe is a game for children. The best is; let the president be on sick leave and the people must be told about it. God bless Zambia.

    • Who said there is anything wrong with Guy Scott? He has even a right wife.
      There are too wrong things at Ba Sata, that is a fact.

  4. Guy Scott is doing a good job for Zambia ably representing our nation with dignity and respect, something Sata is incapable of. He should be appointed acting president until Sata decides to end his hibernation, and I don’t see that happening any time soon.

  5. Guy Scott is a strong man at his age. He is indeed a working Vice President as we can all see. That am sure every blogger will agree. I wish the man good health and many more years. Zambia needs such a hard working man…

    On the other hand we all know who is not working or being seen to be working.

  6. Guy Scott and the wife are doing us proud. Lets give them the support as least we have not experienced any disappointments.

  7. But where is the “well and fit” and “hardworking” president? Are they not just mocking him when they claim that he is well?

  8. The greatest sign of Sata’s deep trouble is continued absence from a successive string of important meetings.Watch as he misses our upcoming 50th uhuru occasion.

  9. But Ba Kalaba is useless, he listens from Kabimba before even cabinet meeting decide. Its me its me its me..
    – First he announced he was going to USA as a representative.
    – Now ku Zimbabwe
    And is he the government spokesman to be announcing who is representing Zambia?
