Ba PF please mwilanda pama loans..twapapata
What else, its all about borrowing and stealing the same money they Borrow, on behalf of poor Zambians. PF are a let down.
Young Zambians like Chris Mvunga should advise elders right reforms than just keeping their jobs.
This Muzungu anikonde nonsense should come to an end.
Be careful with Banks run by Nigerians !!
we mbushi we: can’t you read what is written that Mr Chikwanda is the chairman of the BD of the AfDB? Just because she is from Nij does not mean ADB is a dubious bank. Dubious a*s
This is testimony to President Lungu’s SUCCESSFUL handling of the delicate finances of Zambia, during this trying time. Look at countries like Greece, Portugal, Venezuela! We stand head and shoulders above them during this crisis.
