  1. See, that didn’t hurt at all. Henry B, you are next. The longer you wait, the nastier the whole thing appears, so the sooner the better.

  2. This is a joke…a friend of mine works for Stanbic whose qualification is mere Natech has properties worth over K300 million plus (and he is under 30 yrs)and Andrew Banda, a career diplomat can really fail to save or better still have that money cos he also owns a Logistics and Transport Company.This is humiliation and certainly will discourage private sector development for fear of govt poking its nose in everything.I feel for public civil servants

  3. Problem is, if u have money and are an easterner the you benefitted from from corruption. Worst if you are tonga or lozi the you benefitted from liquidation. Sad fact is that this is because the advisers have benefitted from corruption of avondale, merzaf housing project, simgle sourcing of appollo invest. Mmembe & nchito loan, mathani financing for 10yrs and 259milliom kwacha dropping from a helicopter. We have a kleptomania in power and the sooner we realize the better. Even Chiluba was scared of the amount tobe stolen from Zambia. We are being taken for a ride. Impeach the old geazer

    • Stop crying, its time to pay for your temerities. The country needs thorough cleaning

  4. RB is living it up in Boston. Some unscrupulous Zambians went to hang out with him, bunch of losers!

  5. Taking into account that Mrs. Thandiwe Banda, Henry Banda, and now Andrew Banda have been questioned on tramped-up allegations, these are merely coordinated PF schemes to persecute RB and his family. We the people from Eastern region are watching Sata with keen interest, After 2016 or even before that year – God willing – the scenario will be different when normality in governance shall be restored.

  6. @Mphangwe and Gizmo
    Why do you like pretending to be Easterners when we all know you are a Southerners? Its only Southerners who are pretending to be Lozi, Easterner, Kaonde, ‘True Bemba’, etc,  just to increase the support base for your looser president, HH. As long as Dr. Musokotwani will stand as MMD presidential candidate in 2016, HH’s chances will get even smaller! Continue using your tribal campaign strategy and see where this will take you?

  7. Give uis facts. What crime has Andrew Banda committed? It looks like a witch hunt. Another 4 years time it will be the Satas .What a joke? When are we going tro grow up as a nation?.

  8. The fact that Andrew is been questioned by the investigative agencies in a professional manner and without any prejudice nullifies whatever stupidity Amsterdam has presented to the UN.
    Henry needs to do the right thing, come home and be questioned or else he is wasting money with Amsterdam who is misleading him on futile UN appeals.
    Amsterdam’s attempt to turn Henry’s criminal matter into a political one is a flawed and ineffective approach

  9. Pipo I dont know why u keep complaining if Rb confessed to the public why he cried when he lost elections you shouldnt be complaining. He said he was worried because of his children who were involved in alot of dirt work and opened our eyes as PF to try and find out what

  10. When I look at the comments hear, it only tells me that Zambians are really dumb. When someone is investigated it doesn’t matte whether you can acquire wealth legit or wrong way. It has to be done. Alot of Zambians boast of having properties and healthy a/c and or living in a move life, and when you follow there story, every dime was acquired dubiously. Stop commenting on matters you don’t understand or just because you don’t support the government of the day. Ever since MMD came into power, alot has been stollen. The rich have become richer and the poor, poorer. You know why? Selfish and everyone else has contributed to that by saying ni jealous kubalekafye and stuff like that. Zambians open your eyes.

  11. the joint team is waste of tax payers money, in this day and age you want to find out about where an adult raised small money when he is gainful employment and running a business. the most sensible question would hv been otherwise
