  1. Good Works ba LT
    I Like the Bagdad scenerio, pix 14 to 18 with the chief rebel laeder himself
    Pix 21 The China man proposing our DC, dont Kukana ba DC kaili

  2. #14 That face tells you why that man can not be president of the country.. If they cause trouble tomorrow, police should use more than tear gas. Anarchism should be stopped in its tracks.

  3. Just to let pf kaponyas that unlike the photos you see of so called supporters you see in the post, the pictures of the hospital being built on Great East Road are not doctored.

  4. How come Lusaka City Council run by PF has not put in measures to mitigate flooding once again?

    Bribery, a form of corruption, is an act implying money or gift given that alters the behavior of the recipient. Bribery constitutes a crime and is defined as the offering, giving, receiving, or soliciting of any item of value to influence the actions of an official or other person in charge of a public or legal duty. The bribe is the gift bestowed to influence the recipient’s conduct. It may be any money, good, right in action, property, preferment, privilege, emolument, object of value, advantage, or merely a promise or undertaking to induce or influence the action, vote, or influence of a person in an official or public capacity

  6. BREAKING NEWS

    The South African Government has petitioned GRZ to extradite Michael Sata to that country for money laundering over the US $27,000 confiscated at Oliver Tambo International Airport in 2005 still with the Government undeclared.

    This time PF kaponyas can go to DEC in droves and dream their usual ways of violence but will meet detailed patriotism that will Taser them systematically including Sata. Journalists should go their and shoot a movie of entire PF including Sata rolling on the ground helplessly on Taser effect.

  7. #14 Every time my kids misbehave I always show them a picture of Sata and they are soon quiet. I think I will be using pic14 from now on.

  8. #7 What are you talking about? Heads of state are given gifts all the time. The only thing that they have to do is record and register it and report it to the legitimate authorities. I know some of you think RB is dull, but do you really think he would conduct anything that is inappropriate in full glare of the public with photographic evidence?Is he the first ever leader in Zambia or indeed in the world to have ever received a gift? Sometimes the shallow and twisted thinking of pf people amazes me. Are you really running out of things to criticise RB with that you have to sink so low? On another more positive note, kudos to the govt for the building of the new hospital.

  9. You may have issuez with Sata or indeed any individual but there iz no such a thing az ” prezidential face”.

  10. You can also be presidential material if you want, just try you do qualify as a Zambian, why waste time to only cheer your friends,, the facial looks donot make some one to be president , I have known alot of handsome men who do nothing in life . I f you can mobilise people to follow you then you can make it to state house

  11. Imwe @13 Chilu… Some pipo are saying cows presented by villagers in Namwala went straight to the farm! True or False.

  12. Wow pic 17 and 18 are good shots.They are good for movie posters.If i was allowed to come up with the name of the movie my best could be “dont kubeba”.Awe nizi umufwashi in pic 17 ukubutuka kwati mu boys.The real mata-ko mpela ulubilo.

  13. Pic# 15 must mean zambian standards are very low if that is indeed “riot gear”.What i see is just batons and regular uniform.Riot gear is helmets,shields and pads for arms and legs.

  14. #17 When are some of you going to stop rumour mongering? So what if the cows went to wherever? If you think it is corruption provide the evidence to the relevant authorities and try and prove your case. If you read what I wrote above, I said that it is not unusual for heads of state to be provided with gifts. Queen Elizabeth as the head of state of the UK actually has a warehouse full of gifts she has received from all sorts of people and organisations but I guess small minded people like you wouldnt know that especially given that you want to politicise every little thing. Why not focus on the new hospital that is being built?

  15. Huh@pic#6, is it like the cardinal is not even allowed to hug chi sister there?Mazombwe ukose nokukosa mudala coz that ci sister kwati chilakumfwa bwino.

  16. Well balanced compilation of photos. The Hospital is beautiful and we thank God for RB’s dedication and commitment. May I humbly request that whilst being critical is valuable at times, APPRECIATION just like CREDIT should be given where it is rightly due. Seeing that hospital, I see lives being born and many being healed not to mention job creation. Ours should be a role of praying for our leadership and giving God thanks. Indeed let’s be critical at times, but let’s also have the decency to give thanks. God Bless Our leaders, GOD BLESS ZAMBIA

    So what if the cows went to his farm! good observation indeed,,,,,i bet Chiluba also registered his $8m gift in some register somewhere and reported it to the relevant authorities
    These gifts are the root cause of corruption pa zed! in developed democracies,a govnt official is not allowed to recieve any gifts above a prescribed value,,,even in major coporations,its a policy for obvious reasons which you big minded people cant see because your brains are too big they are litterally popping your eyeballs out of your heads

  18. #26 If you support PF – did you support the party when they wanted all of Chiluba’s charges to be dropped? Were you one of the pf people who were at the airport to welcome him when he came back from treatment in SA? Going back to the case about the cows, do you have evidence to prove that the cows were taken back to the farm? If they did, what was the value of those cows? Why make points based on innuendo and gossip? What have the cows got to do with any of the photos that have been shown above? If you think something untoward has happened in relation to the cows and you have evidence to back you up then contact the relevant authorities. Sata likes to run to the Zambian courts so they can not be biased or ineffectual.If you cant prove anything, it is better to shut up.

  19. #27
    What is it with you people? anyone who says anything against MMD is PF! this is palin s.tupidity…I hate chiluba with a passion and even if i was an mmd supporter i would not sink so low as to go to the airport to welcome a president,,,thats for bootlickers
    you are the one who said “so what if the cows went to his farm”, not me, read your comment at #22, and you are the one who claimed that if a president receives a gift he is supposed to register it! so what sort of register is RB using so that we can refer to it when his time comes.
    Now can you tell me where this register is where a govnt official should record their gifts

  20. Interesting pics and comments.

    Pic 1,2 If that’s what the beginning of the rainy season looks like, what will the end be? Someone better start building an ark to save the animals like Noah.

    Pic #3 is that how red the soil is along Great East Road? I think I’ve been away too long because it sure looks strange to me.

    Pic #22 LT who’s Sarah and who’s Viola in the picture? Guess work…

  21. Photo #25, there is the American Ambassador, Zambian Finance Minister and Health Minister, but kwena why be in the picture if you are not going to be recognized/mentioned, I feel sorry for the other guy who has been nameless..

  22. Nice pictures from the general hospital. Further evidence that the RB administration is working.

  23. Abena scooner balifuma pa katondo. Thats why Sata behaves the way he does, how can you have scooner for a front man.

  24. Pic #10 – ba LT, do you mean the traffic jams get worse when most people are watching TV at home (prime time) or maybe you meant to say during rush hour periods?
    Pic #22 – Which one is Sarah and which one is Viola?
    Pic #6 – Cardinal Mazombwe, I see you’re fighting the urge to hug the babe. Go ahead man, we aint gonna ostracize you.

  25. #24 & 32# Capitalist- Lets be serious for once.. I really wonder if you guys have been to Zambia over the last 10 years.. That Lusaka Hospital construction was Levy Mwananwasa’s project. and by the time he died, the founda tion was done and the main structure was already going up.. All RB did was put up a large billboard along great east road with his chi face on it saying “your govt at work”.. all crap.. he did envision or plan for that. he just goes around taking other people’s credit. These are parental teachings.. DON’T TAKE SOMETHING THAT DOESN”T BELONG TO YOU!!! what wrong with him saying Levy di a great job here ?I want to see him think up, formulate, execute and spearhead a massive industrial project or something I can say he did, even if he’s got only a year left.

  26. Sheepish contributions from some bloggers. Politics is not about an individuals looks or dressing but calibre. “If you cannot stand up for anything, you can fall for everything”. Sata just like any other individuals in the opposition represents the voiceless in Zambia and therefore, must be give all the support and respect by some of you brave cowards who can only voice s h i t on this thread.

  27. The swin.e behind Kapembwa is the smelly Chileshe Kandetta! This idio.t is a low life! He ****e.d up his mother’s life in real life!!!

  28. In General giving gifts is not a crime. But what we cannot conclude is the motive of the gift giver. If some Ilas gave RB cows, I have no proble with that to be honest. It is even probably a sign to tell him that they have enough to share and are not mean or tribalistic. let the cows go to Chipate, what wrong with that?
