  1. All countries that are managed by this calibre of leaders are engulfed by extreme poverty! Poverty in Zambia has increased under PF. If you want evidence, just check the circumstances of the majority of ordinary Zambians. PF YENA KUWAYAWAYA FYE!

    • Apparently your thinking is the major contribution to the poverty you are talking about! If you were not always looking for faults in people your outlook would be positive and we would together be looking for ways to make our country prosper under whatever circumstances!

    • EXCELLENT INTERVIEW. ECL IS A PUBLIC SPEAKER WITH CONFIDENCE. IF YOUR ATTITUDE IS BENT ON BLAME GAME, I CAN ASSURE THAT YOU WILL ALWAYS FIND WRONG THINGS IN PEOPLE YOU HATE. LUNGU SAID THE TRUTH THAT IF PAST GOVTS HAD LEARNED LESSONS, ZAMBIA WOULDN’T BE WHERE IT IS TODAY. BUT, THEY IGNORED ALL THE WORNING FROM THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT (CLIMATE), ABANDONMENT BY THE WEST DURING ZAMBIA’S LIBERATION STRUGGLE ASSISTANCE TO SOUTHERN AFRICAN COUNTRIES AND BEYOND, THE FLEEING AWAY OF THE WORLD CORPORATE ENTITIES WHENEVER THE ECONOMY OF ZAMBIA SLUMPS. IT’S JUST NOW UNDER PF THAT THERE’S A SHIFT AND EMPHASIS OF ZAMBIANS TO OWN BUSINESSES AND THE DIVERSIFICATION OF ECONOMY INTO FARMING, TOURISM AND MANUFACTURING AS WELL AS IN RENEWABLE SOURCES OF ENERGY. SO, WHERE DID ECL GO WRONG. YOU GUYS WILL…

    • MOREOVER, ONE WONDERS WHY PREVIOUS GOVERNMENTS HAVE BEEN INSISTING THE SOUTHERN PARTS OF ZAMBIA FOR FARMING EVEN WHEN WATER PROBLEMS AND THE FERTILITY OF LAND REALLY LEAVES MUCH TO DESIRE. NORTHEN, LUAPULA, N.WESTERN, COPPERBELT, EASTERN AND THE CENTRAL PROVINCES HAVE VERY FERTILE LANDS WITH COPIOUS RAINFALLS. SURELY, DID THEY (PREVIOUS GOVTs) NEED A PROFESSOR OR GENIUS TO TELL THEM WHERE TO CONCENTRATE FARMING? EVEN AN IDI0T WOULD HAVE GIVEN THEM FREE CONSULTATION IF THEY COULDN’T SEE THEMSELVES. IT ISN’T ROCKET SCIENCE, BUT WE MOSTLY HAD F00LS IN GOVERNMENTS. YOU GUYS WILL DIE WITH HATE AND BITTERNESS. COME ON. GET A LIFE.

    • Iwe ka Peter!!!!

      People w2atch other leaders and see what they do, or rather how they respond to challenges. Take Obama for instance, he took on an economy he knew was in the pits. Confidently and openly mobilized brains across the land and look where he is – one of the best presidents the US of A has ever had. He did not keep blaming past leaders, instead he took the bull by the horns. E bwaume. Te aba! kukasabanya fye! Awe sure.

  2. Zonda uzalema,do or die ma niggaz,its Lungu diye vintu chabe.The likes of the smal god they are drowning titanicaly big man,Cause”WHO JAH BLES NO ONE CAN CURSE”Only JAH can choose sengulani manso,Lead us ma leader,but get rid of evil mps……who has the face of deceit,cause they can betray u and the nation at large,like the previous mps did,the likes,of gbm,kabimba,masebo,sampa,simusa and so on.Triumph is on yo side my Lungu

  3. If the problems you have this year are the same problems you had last year, then you are not a leader. You are rather a problem on your own that must be solved. Please people let’s sort out this visionless,clueless,brainless,useless and a drunkard. Viva HH zambia forward.

    • @Lutuku presdo. One thing you are forgetting is that the language you are using is not good even though you hate the person who is the President. Such kind of hatred is what is de-campaigning UPNDown. Many Zambians don`t condone hatred hence not voting for the perpetrators of it.

  4.

  5. Comment:Hakahivotela Humwine…God help those who help themselves.If you think lungu wil come wil come put butter and bread on the the table, dear you shal continue talking povert.infact povert is in your home.All good gift comes from above and no one under can take them away.not all shal accept and love him but he is a victor.He who stands alone is strong.His excellent you ar the victor ECL….vivaa in august.

  6. He says he has walked the talk….the man is just making hollow noises…talking about valuable addition when he is importing everything from hammer mills to awarding all contracts to Chinese. There is nothing in this interview.

  7. Changwa Lungu I like your party pro Zambian manifesto but I detest your party spirit of violence which your cadres have manifested before and after 2011. Don’t lie outside that the Zambian people will retain you to power. Give the opposition the freedom they deserve and Zambians will say good bye to you on 11/8 for mismanaging the Zambian economy and for your govt corruption. If you’re clever enough to reintroduce QZ with local and foreign experienced pilots before 11/8 then that will be your legacy after you’re booted out of power on 11/8

  8. EVEN THE INVESTOR HAS KNOWN THAT WE ARE NOT GOING TO PLEAD FOR THEM LIKE THE WAY UNDER FIVE HAS BEEN PROMISING THEM. ZAMBIANS FIRST AND NOT CAPITALISTS FIRST!

  9. ATI seeking foreign investment, is Zambia a place to invest in? This pf has policy inconsistency and lack any seriousness. I would not advise any French investor to do so. However, they can do so at their own peril. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

  10. corruption under PF has been institutionalised.
    every one in PF sees corruption as part of life, even thir supporters. How can you have a minister of broadcasting, kambwili, saying management of parastatals should employ only relatives.

  11. Excellent presentation. He answered well and was credible. He debated well and held his own. The interviewer was below par, gobbling her words and a tad unkempt.

    Advisable that His Excellency speaks slightly slower in a relaxed leisurely way and with more timed emphasis on words.

  12. If you support lungu then you are as cluless,visionless,brainless,useless,drunkard and a lazy bum as the person you support

    • If you don’t support HE Lungu, then you are Foul mouthed, uncouth in mind and abusive to those who do?

      I don’t reckon your position is the more attractive of the two!
