  1. i am really impressed by this son of the soil. i have a small size herd of goats of 30 and i want to grow the number to 300 plus so that i start raising and selling without having to go round to buy from other people. my worry is that it will take time to raise the number to 300

  2. A Zambian we can all be proud of. I of the diaspora does not even have an idea as grand as Bo Nyambe’s.

    Viva President Nawakwi.
