Mr Mutati was invited in his capacity as a member of the COMESA Council of Elders and a former Minister of Commerce.
The conference will hold discussions that are beneficial to the common economic agenda of the continent.
Speaking before living for Cairo Egypt, Mr Mutati said he was proud to be the one representing the country at such an important summit which is aimed at strengthening ties between Egypt and sub – Saharan Africa.
He said it was not the first time that he was representing the nation at such kind a of a meeting and that he will continue to represent the nation when ever he is called upon as they help create investment opportunities in the country.
He said the conference will discuss among other things how the continent can move forward at the same pace in terms of economic development as well as formulate region strategies for developing the continent.
Mr Mutati is hopeful that Zambia will benefit from the conference as Egypt aims to increase its private investment in Africa from $8 Billion to $10 Billion.
The conference was officially opened by Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi on Saturday who said Egypt’s private sector investment in Africa exceeds $8 billion, and Cairo hopes to double its trade with other African nations in the next five years to $10 billion.
Lets Go Felix go tell sisi that we need a convention too in Egypt. On a serious note, I admire this man . But he can only go as far as advisory level. he lacks political identity.
What is amazing is you never hear of people in PF being invited to anything which needs brains
This guy is on the “Council of Elders???” What , with his escapades with Mugala???
…Namugala??….
wat a waste…next please
Well learned man,this Mutati, he should concentrate on meaningful staff and not that Nevers Mumba pastor!!!
A waste of education.Politically impotent but academically viable.He needs to be a lecture.He is wasting his time in politics.A fellow in Accounting being reduced to a political cadre.It is like politics has become a lucrative bussines.Every Jim and Jack is rushing into politics.May be its because politicians do not feel the pinch of a tax man(ZRA).
Even his Accounting is NOT up to scratch – he got away with it in ZESCO becoz he juniors got it right or sorted out his mess!!!
..his juniors….
Mutati is educated and i wonder why he’s wasting his time in politics when he can add value to the nation in the private sector which can still translate to national development.
So Mutati is PF afterall..
Has He Got G 7 Certicate?
MUTATI IS NOT HIMSELF. HE IS WONDERING HOW HE WAS CAUGHT IN THE ACT, RED-HANDED WITH NAKACHINDA. NEVERS IS A MAN OF GOD. YOU CAN WORK AGAINST HIM ONLY AT YOUR PERIL.
THERE ARE ANGELS WORKING ON HIS BEHALF AND REVEALING THINGS FOR HIM EVEN WHEN HE IS SNORING. MUTATI IS A DESPERATE NOVICE.
I had alot of faith in this man. I was thinking he would make a good leader now! After losing elections you will be packed and forgoten. What is wrong with Bembas kanshi? Muletekanya Bembas. GBM,sampa and mumba. I hope kambwili will not be duped
Holding political office is clearly a powerful place for him to fatten himself from gov’t connections. As everyone says why sully himself with party politics otherwise. As a private businessman he just gets his salary plus expenses, add a gov’t post he gets add status.
Well probably unfair, but you have to wonder why all the fuss in the last weeks.
Mutati is the type of leader we need. … tell HH to concentrate on his business….. mutati akudwalikani mumala ka…. finally zambia has a real president in the making. … his excellency Felix Mutati. … umuntu mutwe
With his acumen & the mess he has found himself in??? This is the guy that once claimed that Zedians couldn’t either think or understand some financial stuff, not long after which he had to apologise profusely – “Real president in the making????” – man, are you off your trolley????
No wonder the kwacha is falling, let’s add zeros FTJ was brave
