PF Government is Killing Education-HH

Share

HH Speaking to Journalist after pearing for mention
FILE: HH Speaking to Journalists after appearing for mention

The reports that the PF government wants to abandon more than 4000 University of Zambia students and consign them into the streets due to lack of money for bursaries; are shameless and a clear lack of priorities.

UPND, still insists on affordable and quality education being a responsibility of any caring government as one of our four pillars in our manifesto that also include agriculture, prudent economic management, and quality health care.

Can the PF be serious for once, and stopped playing ‘donchi kubeba’ on the people of Zambia, especially the youths whose future solely depend on this education they are being denied today by this irresponsible leadership.

Those children, some below 19 years, are adolescents who can do anything, even taking their own lives, once their future is shattered by lack of bursaries. In fact, the PF leaders must be held responsible and accountable for anything bad that will happen to these children a result of being denied a chance to get education due to lack of bursary. In any case, the PF were voted based on their manifesto that among other lies, provides for free education from grade one to university, and gave hope to the majority Zambians.

This PF government has so far been wasting a lot of resources on by-elections being instigated by them. The bloated cabinet, huge delegations to international meetings and other allowances, which would have been used for the education and other social sectors are being wasted.

Further, the PF government removed critical fuel and food subsidies on the promise of serving money for social sectors such as education and health care. What has happened to that money saved from subsidies since the money used on roads is borrowed money which the same youths they are denying bursaries will have to repay in the near future?

We in UPND believe that education is the best inheritance, best equaliser, and is an investment and not a cost and hence should be accessed by all children even those whose benefactors cannot that cannot afford to pay for their education.

In any case, an education bursary is basically a financial instrument that can be structured and arranged in any form such as a grant or a long term loan scheme that can afford children from poor families to access education.

PF should therefore find the money for the youths at UNZA and other learning institutions even through a supplementary budget, like they have been doing for their by-elections, and other wasteful expenditures.

    • Problem is when you are dull and an airhead like Mushota (sikopo), even a simple message from HH with multiple solutions is hard to appreciate. Reduce bloated cabinet ( One GX cost K1 700 000 and to that fuel and maintenance..do the math and let me know how many kids would have accessed UNZA with the amount) and pay for education. Reduce GRZ entourage when traveling to international meetings and use money for education…the statement has several other examples/solutions

    • Fimo ifintu kwikalafye.. the truth of the matter we all know is that governmnt cant manage.. simple math, 1 student pays approximately K11,000 multiply by 6,000 students that is K66,000,000 or K66 billion in old currency per annum. plus you have to pay them stipends and book allowance . stipends are K600*6000*9 months that i s K32,400,000 or K32 billion old currency

    • One girl from Kalingalinga has commited suicide over bursary.That was sad reading. It makes my blood to boil. Condolences to the family.

      This what is exactly what PF came into power for? What I don’t understand is why the freshers let the former UNZU president demonstrate alone when they should have been part of the protest. That girl would have been a hero if she died fighting not dying in your own room. PF are heartless and wont take this seriously.

      Frehsers please come out in numbers and fight for what is rightly yours. During my time we never stood for such nonsense from government.

      Its a shame UNZA has gone to the dogs. They no longer represent the poor majority.

    • A strong rumour has it that only those whose surnames come from Luapula, Northern, and Muchinga province have been given bursaries. Every one else has been left out.

      You have got to be a Bemba or belong to a Bemba speaking tribe to get a university scholarship under PF. If this is not tribalism, what is it?

    • PF has found money for by elections but failed to find money to fund the education. What a shame!

      PF is a scum of a party. Its only agenda is to empower only the Bembas and leave out the rest in abject poverty.

      Next time when you vote, take PF’s gifts whole heartedly but vote with your mind intact. Do not let PF’s bribery trcks sway you from voting for UPND a party that will promote the welfare of every Zambian regardless of their tribe.

      The debate on tribalism perpetrated by PF should be the focus of our debates going forward. We should not shy away from this cancer inflicted on peace loving hard working Zambians.

      HH is always right and very thoughtful in his criticism. The parents of these children denied bursaries have paid taxes through VAT and other taxes.

      Viva HH…

    • Most of the countries in the world no-longer pay for learners from Higher education institutions. what they provide are education loans which in return the learner or be a graduate with pay in installment when employed. Possibly for me this what the Govt is trying to do

    • Haleisa whatever, how were the previous governments managing before this useless PF government came into power? In short what you are saying is your PF lacks strategic planning and is just basically a hopeless collection of people like you who cannot think beyond what you will have for supper tonight, not so?

    • @Zambia for life

      In your dreams. Who has told you that PF wants to introduce a student educational system in Zambia? Who announced that and when? If that was true, then that girl in Mutendere or Kalingalinga would not have killed herself but instead would have gone ahead to obtain that loan and pay for her education.

      Educational loans are welcome but this Pathetic party of pathetic f00ls can not deliver on that.

    • is free education a sucker punch to kill education?
      Is constructing of universities and upgrading tertiaries a killing of education system in Zambia. Don’t shut your eyes widely.

    • If he had used proper Valuation model during privatisation, this issue of money would have been a thing of a past, but alas he used ngombe illede model to Value our mines and hence sold for a song. He went ahead and sold himself the Ramcoz house where he resides now in Kabulonga.
      Sata is trying ,those who had no hope of ever going to university now have hope. His excellency MCS has built Universities. Utterly shocking that he can even open his mouth.

  1. Constructive criticism is always welcome, but it must be accompanied with suggested solutions to the problem identified. Wholesale condemnation without suggested possible solutions is meaningless as it does not offer any hope to those affected.

    • ‘This PF government has so far been wasting a lot of resources on by-elections being instigated by them. The bloated cabinet, huge delegations to international meetings and other allowances, which would have been used for the education and other social sectors are being wasted.’
      The above statement is dripping with advice. Elo why speak like you do not know that PF will only listen to advice from itself??

    • I sido from the beginning I was at pains to accept Sata as acapable president of the republic of Zambia.I don’t know what people saw in this old sick illiterate and pathetic lair of human being.He lied all the way to state house that he was a shanter in UK,He was the first PILOT,He was a quantity saveyor bla bla.The educated cleary new the man could not be president.He and PF have come up with un coordinated construction projects as a way to divert funds in their pockets. They deny students busaries they look at Education as accost not an investment .The hospitals have no in some cases few specialist doctors hence triggering long list of patient to be flown abroad,while the old thing is spending bilions of dollars on medical bills .We have seen a lot of bye elections that has never been

    • If my blood boiling when other bloggers are aguing very straight forward issues.Kolwestans like defending blindly you should accept when PF has failed to provide fro its citizen.Let a child fail own his because is dull not because Government can fund.In short you PF you are contradicting your manifesto.You be ashamed not busy telling rubbish.How do you explain the awarding of busaries to students with Bemba surnames and leaving out Student like the one who commited suicide.You have recruited your relatives in ZAF and Zambia army and other strategic institution.This cancer has to stop.Like in Hong kong Students from UNZA should rise and voice out for poor and minority groups in Zambia.If we don’t do that very soon we shall very power full tribes that will make others slaves for ever.

  2. I wish HH included numbers to drive the message home. He could have mentioned all the money spent on by-elections, money gained through removal of fuel and fertiliser subsidies, money spent on the over bloated cabinet and the excessive international delegations (to just go and sleep in five star hotels and fly back home). These amounts of money would have been compared to how much is required to sponsor the 4000 students annually. We need such analysis please.

    • seen since the birth of Democracy,in 1991.PF has the largest cabinet compared to past governments in Zambia.ministers are flying all over the world getting a lot allowances but have nothing to show from their trips.3/4 of the famers have not been paid that means no in puts,no money to send children to school ,no money to pay for medical bills.The money which was saved from subsidies was used in bye elections lavish posh cars at the expense of purchasing drugs and ARVS.This PF is not a Government but a group of dis organized criminals canibalising our Economy .Its up to wise youths to control this old 1964 generation of un repentant thiefs and womanisers.

    • The children of poor people will be doomed for life if you keep voting for this criminal organization with tribal inclination.All they are doing is to in rich themselves and then take left overs to their provinces such as Muchinga.Other Zambians are left in a cold.This is why in solwezi The Kaondes and Lundas said no.We have mines in solwezi but the money is channeled to fund a sick man in state house and pay for useless trips abroad.I have a right to criticize as a tax payer. Government collects more k5000 as pay as you earn from my salary and yet I have nothing to point at to say this is were my money goes.The Roads they are building is form borrowed money Kaloba from Europe while they me to pay back the same money in 2022 through my taxi again.On top of that there is no transparency in

  3. What a usless statement based on hearsay! What will HH/UPND say when it’s proven that this is not the case? Can someone please advise HH not to rush to the media based on ‘nkani yamumoba’ it just shows how desperate and lost he is.

    • You just confirmed your Kambwili was drunk when he said education is not a responsibility for the govt. I am begining to think all PF decisions are made “mumoba”. @ Varta, are you related to Mushota, you seem to carry the same dull genes. Whilst you are thinking about this, please tell us when the farmers will be paid for their maize? Another failed PF project…..result unashamedly, the most undernourished country on the continent!

    • Ba Obatala just for once be objective. Where is the evidence that GRZ has failed to pay bursaries? Once you have provided the evidence we will see the sense in what HH has just said. Other than that yours are just tribal rants as usual

    • Last time I checked the Minister of Education was Dr Phiri. So for you Obatala whatever your useless ZWD ‘quoted’ kambwili as saying is the gospel truth? At least I know who runs Education in Zambia something you don’t know and claim to be intelligent.

    • @stirflow

      Ask Kambwili if in doubt about this issue. How dare you take this matter lightly? Amongst those denied bursaries are your relatives and yet here you are defending a useless pathetic party.Shame on you pathetic f00l.

      PF came to power, knowing that UNZA accepts about 6000 students every year. They promised big and are now chickening out because they used all the money for by elections.

      Very soon government workers will be going without salaries. If they are paid then it will be on the 35th of the month.

      Never in the history of UNZA has this happened.

      PF is busy decimating every little hope there is left amongst the youth. The have completely destroyed Farming, Education, Health , Democracy, Judiciary,and above all the economy.

    • UNZA STUDENT COMMITS SUICIDE AFTER ALLEGEDLY BEING DENIED BURSARY;
      A 19 year old student at the University of Zambia has reportedly committed suicide after allegedly being denied a bursary.
      Musanka Mukwamba of Lusaka’s Kalingalinga township is said to have taken her own life with a poisonous insecticide after learning of her predicament according to people familiar with the development at UNZA radio.
      Out of the 6000 plus first year students admitted to Zambia’s highest institution of learning, only 2,600 have being out on the bursary scheme.’
      That news is not from ZWD but from UNZA radio. There’s your evidence.

    • @ Wanzelu

      Why should I ask Kambwili? Is he the Minister of Education? And why should I believe what you Obatala or ZWD say?

      If your relatives did not make the mark then they DO NOT deserve a bursary period! The country can’t just be handing out bursaries like sweets to chaps that end up studying courses that are of no value to our nation!

    • @Chipuba(Wanzelu), Dudelove, and whoever is supporting HH’s statement.
      All you chaps don’t know what you are saying together with your HH. I studying at UNZA and paid my own fees. A lot of other people are paying their own fees. The government does not pay for all the students. From way back the government has been paying for 1000 students. The PF government has even done well by increasing the number to 2600 studnets. Don’t just yap.
      About the chap that has committed suicide, what has he gained. Had he not committed suicide, may HH could have helped her pay the fees. Taking ones life does not solve the problem. Good luck to her in her afterlife.

    • Ba Chinaman, those are probably made-up statistics and what proof do we have that you went ku UNZA and your mummy and daddy paid for you?

    • Imwe ba Dudelove, who made you judge over Zambians? The problem is that you think whatever your HH says is correct and that it’s the absolute truth. “NO bwana” if I may borrow Kabimba’s way of talking. My parents paid for my fees and my dad was not well to do. He just understood the power of education and so sacrificed for me and my siblings. My dad is late now and God bless him. My mom is a simple farmer. There is nothing special about that Kalingalinga girl who took her life. MHSRIP. If she took time to think, she could have got a FAWEZA scholarship or something. Bursaries Committee is not the only place people are getting their school paid for. Give me your email address I send you my scanned UNZA tuition receipts.

  4. Who made this HH kid the students spokes person or the “Zambians”spokes person. Always taking advantage of every opportunity to gain popularity. I would not be surprised if the PF gave all the students in the country bursaries if this kids will not come up with a negative statement. Even the roads that we can all see are a negative thing this childish tribalist.

  5. The Sata is dead ploy has failed now he tries another flop thinking students will do as their Hong Kong counterparts are doing. Zero man. How come they(GRZ) are starting to build 4000 bed spaces at UNZA and CBU. So who is going to occupy those spaces?

    • @ Ndaje Kahks, so HH now runs Newsweek, Washington Post and AP news agency..sometimes better not to expose your defective intelligence genes in public. Tell me why is Zambia still among the least literate countries in the world? People using thumb prints to sign 50 years after independence and for you @Ndaje Kahks everything is ok? Get a life!

  6. @Obatala 5.1. My friend get your facts correct. I don’t know where you are. But let me remind you that those papers picked the information from HHs Watchdog( I wont call it Zambian since its behaviour is un Zambian). Logic makes one to wonder how Newsweek and other respectable media could just create such a story without first confirming that the man was actually dead. Just think deeply without being tribal or partisan. Like it or not the Watchdog was the initiator of that story- as to why- no one knows.

    • @Ndaje Kahks: As a matter of personal principle, ZWD is never my choice for any credible news. I check it once in a while, more as a last resort. However, your assertion that ZWD merely fabricated the New York story sounds unpalatable and weird. Are you sure you are not distorting any facts?

    • @Ndaje Kahks

      Assuming that I agree with you, can you PLEASE explain what HE The President was doing in New York in company of First Lady and 38, yes 38 members of “delegation”?
      Looking how to finance “bursaries”?

  7. how can anyone in his/her sound mind succumb a visibly not so sound health-wise MCS for a 16hrs non stop jolly ‘ride’ to New York…??…with unnecessary huge ‘team’…??…and we start wondering how we are getting broke…!!!! bye election because someone donated K1000 to a church and trigger K6m bye elections , because someone donated a public payphone….another K6m bye election…. so many trivial reasons in total amounting to K120m(K120 billion OC)

  8. Most of the countries in the world no-longer pay for learners from Higher education institutions. what they provide are education loans which in return the learner or be a graduate with pay in installment when employed. Possibly for me this what the Govt is trying to do

    • @Zambia for life

      In your dreams. Who has told you that PF wants to introduce a student educational system in Zambia? Who announced that and when? If that was true, then that girl in Mutendere or Kalingalinga would not have killed herself but instead would have gone ahead to obtain that loan and pay for her education.

      Educational loans are welcome but this Pathetic party of pathetic f00ls can not deliver on that.

  9. The president of the “republic of Zambia” traveled to the United states with 40 people, went and lodged in a hotel in New York and came back without attending any of the meetings he intended to. The Zambian citizens and youth for that matter are killing themselves because the Govt cannot give them bursaries. This is simply iniquitous on the party of our politicians and in particular Sata who promised to give the Zambian citizens their dignity if he was voted into power. They have voted him in and this is what they get. He is sitting in state house without working, state house has turned into a hospital. These morons can quickily find millions of kwacha for bye- elections and travel aimlessly to other countries and yet their employers (the electorate) can not get basic necessities.

  10. hh has nothing to offer, if he had, he would have given it to the Luanshya folks, however, he made them paupers and today he wants their vote. if he wants to make a mark, let him adopt at least to 2 students until they graduate.

    • @Kongani

      Ndiwe chimbi chabe. Why divert to issues not relevant to the article? You are typical a pathetic f00l.

      The issue is why PF is failing to find money for students and yet they can find money for by elections.

      Lenders have now known how reckless this PF government is and wont be funding any programmes any more. Tazaona where the money for vote buying will come from.

      When was the last time Chikwanda signed a loan or funding agreement? I think June.

  11. These pf minions even when I provide solutions,they cannot see it. Do I speak who dont read,because they were denied a bursary or its simply deliberate to shut me up,so that their man in state house can continue destroying this country. I will not shut up this country is mine too,I may not be a Bemba but I have the right to aspire for the highest post in the country. I respect all Zambians regardless of tribe.why shud pf demonise me for suggesting solutions to their problems,they shud thank me instead.

  12. But ba HH naimye press statments don’t mean anything. Go meet with the authorities and presurise them. If it comes from you they will take the issue more seriously. I believe you don’t have to wait until you are in state house. You have to act now because these guys that have no bursaries are feeling it now. If you make it possible for them to have bursaries now they will become your ambassadors & say if it was not for HH who took it personal we would not have had any education.

  13. Much as it was not the privilege of some of our beloved leaders to get good solid education: Kenneth Kaunda, form II, Frederick Chiluba, self-schooled and talented orator, Michael Sata, of unknown educational pedigree; this gambit ought not be the legacy we must pursue as a country. The quality of education in Zambia is catastrophically low.

  14. ba Mushota nabo pali HH tabalala! Ingrained Inferiority Complex? Ulupato lwa ifi luka kakulwaka Hypertension kansi yandi!

  15. Are people on this blog thinking??? I really feel pity on all those supporting HH. I have seen 3 Zambian Government in my life time but i have never come across the Gov that has worked like the PF have done so far. Do u think wen HH comes into power education will be free? THINK!!!Give credit were it is due.

  16. The PF sycomphants are a serious threat to Zambia’s social-economic development revolution. PF regime has been very imprudent and insincere in running the economy of the country.There has been no progressive realisation in any sector of our economy.Zambia is on a reverse gear.But iam very alive to the fact that the economy has critically assaulted and crippled the illiterate gullibles who blindly monking around with PF.They have more monies in their pockets,more employment,No District Commissioners,Small Cabinet,Free education up to University Level,Free fertilizer inputs to farmers,prompty payments to farmers’ produce,A University in each province, No Chinese Investors-” bogus”, Zero corruption,prudent mining taxes…blablabla…!All lies! What a flea Circus in PF!Pliz ba-29years…

  17. wanzelu you scare away upnd supporters from other tribe like jo use to scare away pf supporters. I wonder why lusaka times alow your comments your thinking you mushota and jo is so poor that the best sit for you is and the said friends is zwd and tumfweko respectively

    • Iwe Chimbwi why impersonate me with your drivel message.

      Uchimbwi chabe in PF. Mwanya vintu vizavuta mange, PF anasiliza ndalama zonse ku ma by elections. So monse imwe muma foreign services bazakwitani ku nyumba.

      So far I know about 7 who have been recalled and not replaced.

    • Nilibe nzeru chabe. I got a bursary, wasted taxpayer money drinking and smoking my brains out at UNZA, and now I spend my days insulting the president, claiming he has died, and dreaming of being ruled by cattle

  18. I love PF! President Sata for ever! HH is just a cattle boy who has oversmoked, Sata is a true leader for our country

    • @Mei Matungu

      Thanks for knowing that these clown are impersonating me.

      I feel gratified that most of them follow me and take in a lot of useful information from my comments, despite being in denial because they feed off PF’s bread crumbs.

      One thing is clear though, my linguistic signature is unique,and only PF minions can be f00led by these clowns.

    • @Wanzelu: What a hero you have become! I am intrigued by your newly acquired popularity among PF cadres. Keep it up!

    • Guys forgive me, I lied that Sata died in June 2014, I lied that HH will scoop all the 6 by elections, I often make predictions against PF which often turns out against me. Folks listen, it is high time I reflected on my life. Jokes aside, I have been inconsiderate in my blogging. I know people read my comments just for them to see how stupid I am. If they read my comments it doesn’t mean that they are pro wanzelu, probably they think I am Palibe Nzelu. Though I am the most frequent blogger here I have made 0 or zero vector impact or what I call in science zero work done to convince my targeted comment readers. Now PF is hammering us even in our own backyard. That’s all folks.

    • Impersonator, so in your small brain you still think Sata is still the same man he was before he was smuggled out in June?

      Sata is a dead man walking!

      Any way ticks behave like you. They suck the host until its dead.

  19. My solution: No more bye-elections use the money for the students. Students are an investment. Why bye-elections are a waste. 40 people in a presidential delegation to NY is a waste. Just send 5.

  20. @Mushota I used to support you a lot because you have been consistent and one who would argue your point convincingly. But on this one you seem to have contradicted yourself on what you stand for and believe in. Surely your p**sy is rotten, it needs to be discarded.

  21. UPND, you will never give up on inciting others against the Bembas. You are shameless. Let me tell you again, Zambia is a Christian Nation. Mr Sata was put in that place by God Almighty according to his word. Your evil intensions of dividing this Country won’t achieve anything. God watches over this Country. Your evil intentions are worthless. God will achieve you

    • @Boza,
      People voted for PF. Did you see God vote? Respect God. God has a way that he installs rulers not through lies and “Donchi Kubeba”.

    • @Boza which God with a small g yes.He sacrificed an made a small alter at Mulungushi University Next to the rock of authority .On the alter was a star of David and words like 73 tribe of Zambia. One Zambia one Nation. According to pastor Emanneul of Kabwe ,this was ment to blind fold Zambians into blindly vote for Him. The same pastor said this leader will win bot only rule for three years. Ask people who stay around Mulungushi University they know this story. This happened few days before the PF convention .some of the pipo who helped put this alter are dead like the catholic father from Ndola.

  22. Guys these guys are potential inventors. Give them loans to pay back and develop them to earn an income worth their education. Why cant you explain it that way to the people? After all we know in Zambian bursaries are given to students who already can afford the fees.

    Make me President of Zambia and Zambian students will get loans to pay back for their privileged university education.

  23. This ka mushota does not sleep over HH….she sleeps HH,wakes HH.She will soon check in a mental hospital after 2016.How much does the panga family pay her for each anti HH posting?truth be told,RB was an accident on this country just as much as Charles mwango katongo aka CNP has been a disaster.Those bursaries should be investigated to ensure that there was no foul play in the manner they were awarded.

  24. Get ride of bursaries and introduce student loans it will solve corruption at UNZA and save money for government to use on investing in other educational needs or areas.

    • Brilliant idea, but I don’t think it can be delivered by these PF pathetic f00ls.

      If you check in our UPND manifesto, the idea of student educational loan is part of the solution pack being refined to see how money from those who emigrate can be clawed back. One solution being proposed is to attach the loan to degree certificates, so that only those who will have paid in full get their degree certificates.

      Only UPND has a clear plan to revive all Zambia economic sectors.

      These PF chimbwis are only interested in by elections so they win all the seats and declare Zambia a one party state like what Kaunda did.

  25. Zambians UNZA is not the only area that needs our money. The best this govt can do is to remove those whose relativs can afford from the list and replace them with those who cant afford.

    • @Wisdom

      You wearing blinkers. If PF did not induce by elections and spend millions of dollars on these byelections they would have managed to fund bursaries for these UNZA students.

      No one is talking about what PF did not promise. PF was elected on the promise of free education up to University for the bright deserving students. Why dishounour it the pledge now that they are in power?

      If PF had told the truth that University education will not be free, and subsidies will be removed, do you think PF would have won in 2011?

      On Sata’s medical tourism alone, the government has spent over $25million. On top of that, all university going children of Ministers are studing in UK and USA on government bursaries. How many UNZA students would the money spent on these student pay for at…

    • @wisdom: A government as wasteful of government resources as this PF government has been, cannot afford to deny well-deserving students university education purely on the grounds that there is no money.

  26. I feel for mr sata becoz evry one wants to get from the Govt as much as he can and not contribute any thing. WE CAN GET MILLK FROM THE COW FEEDING IT IS NOT OUR BUSINESS

  27. HH should guide the Nation as to how much the bye-election have so far costed. Also , how much savings for fuel subsidies instead of condemning like a child yapping about. I remember, in Mwanawasa’s time there was similar cries about bye-election , but his answer was that these bye-elections are necessary as they are a core of democracy , and that all the monies for such elections are budgeted for. I wonder what HH will be saying if Sata started ruling by decree as already he is calling him an ailing Dictator , without him knowing himself is a brutal Dictator coz ever since he won these fraudulent elections against Saki , he has never faced another election , let alone gone to a convention. What are chances that if HH becomes president of Zambia, he would stand down after two terms in…

    • Do you really think PF can let him have that information when its refusing to pass freedom of information bill?

      In your mind you think PF has spent K20000. on 20 by elections?

      Please try to be thoughtful before you attack an intellectual like HH.

  28. Please for gods sake open up your eyes and listen to what HH has said this blind support us just taking you a 100 years back wards, your president was in New York with a Hugh number of people just to escort his wife get a useless award while he was just sleeping in a hotel bed what nonsense is that?

  29. Interesting to see so called ‘learned’ chaps like Wanzelu wet their pants every time HH sticks his foot in his mouth. I hope UPND will reinstate the MPs they expelled to save us from wasting more money on by-elections and chanel it to more immediate needs such as bursaries.

  30. I have followed Mushotas contributions very well . I feel he is not a Zambian and is just her on pf s pay roll . i think Chipunsha , amano takwata > Why does he hate HH so much . This is now personal than talking on behalf of Zambians . HH is going to be President very soon . whether you don’t want him or not . God is watching ,

    • @Spun ni shofolo Zoona.Imwe mwatemwe kulila ba kolwe breakfast at poloni.Ukafwa ne chikonko mwaiche .UPND and HH will win 2016 election.This is so because HH is a liberator of the poor and down looked people who cant take it any more .Its do or die .It will be a the last battle of Mulatuzi river in Shaka the Zulu.We have to remove these thieves.

  31. i feel pity for our dear youth who voted for pf and ended up being victims of these pathetic fools govt i still want to remind you once again and for more to come sata was and is not presidential material so is pf government doesnt see where they are supporsed to take the nation hence poor state of our economy plse take seriously hh who always speak for the pipo

  32. Last time I checked,UNZA accepts anybody nowadays as long as they have met sone standard.But the main reason UNZA has also jumped in the bandwagon of making money from tuition fees.Of course only distinctive students get GRZ but you can not expect every excepted student to get sponsored.It is sad that the girl had to killl herself.Basically scolarships are meant for high perfuming students.In the US even sports can give you a scolarship.RIP girl!

  33. I almost belvd that UPND is a solution to this country now looking at how they spend our money in parliament and comments from HH yestday he asked govt to pay farmers today he wants all students paid tomoro constitution. UNDER 5

  34. Maybe my HH should go back to UNZA to learn about politics, people are not cows!!!! Am just saying since he has not pay me my salary and I have to live in the goat’s house up to now. Please it is uncivilized and smelling, I need at least a cow to marry

  35. I really wonder if ALL the hakaindeans use reason. The girl commited suicide after the bursary application failed through. Surely, if the committee handled 11000 applications, granted 2500 & rejected 8500, why did this one kill herself? What guarantees did she have? Probably, she sold her body to a nonentity @ longacres & expected it thru open legs. When it failed, she kills herself & little hh rushes to attack the whole pf!!

    • Useless Kakolwe don’t you remember the Tunisian revolution that forced the Tunisian president to flee to Saudi Arabia.It was after a youlth set himself on fire due to un employment.This is the beginning of a revolution by youlths is Zambia .Munsaka is a matyar who has refused to be abused by Kambwili’s behaviuor we shall not forgive Kambwili and PF.We shall make sure we vote them out of Power and pry that Kambwili should miraculously loose all his gotten money and die a popa,cleaning people’s shoes.

    • @Sido Mark. That is wishful & childish thinking. What martyr is she? & for what? It is sad that she took a life over what was not a guarantee. Yes, revolutions are born out of reactions to an incessant denial of people’s rights. Oh Yeah! She had a right to education just as the other thousands more have & are still fighting. She chose a poor way of fighting. Can hakainde step up & offer loans to all others before they commit suicide?

  36. If the figures stated by Haleisa (on top) are correct, then thats a hell lotsa money involved. the government should find ways of commercializing the institution by creating business ventures. I remember in the Kaunda days, NORTEC was generating a lot of money by way of providing technical services to the public and other institutions. Also students on Basaries should be made to pay a certain ammount back the the Bursaries committee to support incomming students.
