  1. Edgar Lungu’s mother is from Malawi. How will he pass through the screening process if at all it is a genuine process? We know that Sata’s first wife is a blood sister to Lungu’s mother and the are both Malawians. ECZ we are watching.

  2. It’ll all be peaceful and orderly until Saturday when a certain party is scheduled to file. Then once again they’ll have a chance to display their instability and lawlessness with every caveman invited to accompanying them in the guise of ‘supporters’.

      NEVER AGAIN!
