  1. What good news from Chipata. And anyone who has no structure must be re-possessed immediately, and be offered only to those who demonstrate unquestioned capacity to develop. We are tired of this stupidity in this country.Those who want to live in towns must be willing to follow town based development ideas or else let them re-locate to the villagers before our country returns to stone age.

  2. let there be a land audit in lusaka west behind garden house hotel as well. This place has many irregularities

  3. Certainly an audit is a MUST. Let those who abused the funds be exposed and prosecuted before others dive in.Meanwhile you councillers stay put we know you have an interest not for genuine developmental projects but your pockets.

  4. The actual Bend Bend style is a lot much more luxurious as well as intended for clients that like to end up being because showy within their design since the manufacturer
