  1. It would have been great to show actual photos of deliberations at the AU. Photo no.6, that is certainly not the face of the Togolese president. Maybe, the Togolese prime minister or another official.

  2. Ba tata ba banda muka shetuntu no ku isonkola ameno pa nkwikila. Muleyenda umutende

  3. The picture was not taken by whom LT state took it, Mr. Bubala is Zambia’s High Comm. to Tanzania and Uganda and he was the one receiving the President in pic. 1.

  4. Picture #3
    isnt that Simbao, the health minister?

    Its not really neccessary for the president to go for such tours,whats the job of the commerce minister or directors in all these ministries who are policy implementors with hands on experience.I hate this man,what a waste of space and an excuse for a president

  5. As much as I dislike MMD, I think we are more aware of the presidents trips because of the internet.All presidents attend meetings in other countries[ and don’t give Obama as an example!He operates on a much higher level than yours truly]

  6. I see my buddy Ambassador Darius Bubala in the pictures, congratulation dear one you are one of the longest patriots in service!

  7. Pics 4 and 5 please LT correct the mistake.It should read”the bolivarian republic of Venezuela” and not bolivian.Simon Bolivar was a liberator of Venezuela and Bolivia is a seperate country.The way you put it is like saying”the malawian republic of zambia which doesn’t make sense.

  8. CORRECTION: Lusaka Times, Picture #3, Mr. Lazarus Kapambwe is the Representative at the United Nations in New York, and Mr. Albert Muchanga is the Representative at the AU in Addis Ababa.

  9. The British Prime Minister David Cameron on his recent trip to the USA traveled on a commercial plane, I am just saying!

  10. Most leaders are targeted and by travelling on a commercial plane he endangered lives of other passengers, I am also just saying.

  11. Pic # 6 :Bandawith should be bandwidth -the rate at which Banda flies to other countries

  12. The British Prime Minister oversees most likely the second largest Intelligence Service in the World, it is a simple task for the British Intelligence Service to fill a commercial airliner with secret agents masquarading as passengers.. I am just saying. On the other hand its naive to make comparisons with Britain. Its a different ball game out here..

  13. “p9” may be he understands something…..but to be serious lets leave technical things to professionals. If we let professionals take charge whilst we hold them accountable for every move, thing will definitely be fine
    God bless Zambia

  14. successfultrip in what way,what issues were on the agenda? can someone explain what agreements were signed on behalf of zedians,what benefits and time scare on delivery pls

  15. Ba LT, you really messed up people’s IDs in these photo.
    Pics. 7,8,9,10,11 that is not Hans Paulsen conducting the tour. FYI Paulsen is now MD for ZAMTEL and he was in Zambia during the president’s visit.

  16. Is that Rupiah’s son in Picture #7,where there is poulsen and RB?. Zambia has really gone to the dogs,I wish our Army can take over and restore order after giving us a good new constitution.

  17. The pictures 7,8,9,10 and 11 are the Group MD of Lap Green, Mr Elazzabi Abdulbaset taking the President of Zambia around, and not Hans Paulsen who is now the MD of Zamtel.:-?

  18. LT that is not Hans Chief Commercial Officer. That is the Chief Executive Officer. Correct the mistake.
