PF materials being loaded ready for distribution

The ruling PF has hired ten helicopters and is earmarked to distribute 8 million units of party regalia over the next few days.

According to information obtained from the PF Secretariat, the party will has already dispatched four 4×4 campaign vehicles to each of the 155 constituencies.

Each ward has received two motorbikes and ten bicycles while each constituency has 5 volumes of development documentaries explaining national, provincial and constituency successes and future plans.

About 20 billboards have been dispatched to each constituency with 10,000 posters, 50,000 fliers and 5000 stickers which will be going up in the next few days.

The party says it will also deploy a vigorous door to door strategy using 300 foot soldiers in each constituency who will be trained and fully equipped with campign materials.

The party will launch its heightened campaigns start week ad is targeting to have at least ten major rallies every day with each province having a major rally every day.

There have been some concerns from some quarters that the PF campaigns have appeared lukewarm with President Edgar Lungu only having appeared at three campaign events.

This has been at the backdrop that his closest rival UPND’s Hakainde Hichilema has been on a non-stop campaign tour since launching his campaign at Kitwe’s Freedom Park on May 21st 2016.

    • Iwe Chils you dont pay civil servants using Party funds. Please log off your fathers phone you are finishing his bundles !

    • Ala Bee (Lupiya Banda) is on record as having spent considerable sums in a desperate effort to get elected.

      The old man cried like a baby girl when he lost.

      I look forward to seeing Vodiga Rungu weep and gnash his teeth come August 15th 2016.

      Just buy more and more campaign material please. (I need some door mats and rugs to mop my house.)
      The harder they campaign, the more tears PF will cry.

    • Abena Jamason Lungu and his tandem of thieves have become rich overnight and are able to afford spending collosal sums of money on campaign materials

      Come August 11, tulemilonga

    • @ Sunsunte2

      From where the CONVICTED EMBEZZLER and his 40 THIEVES managed to get money?
      From the Treasury!!!

    • THIEVES, CROOKS, CRIMINALS AT IT AGAIN. ZAMBIA WILL CONTINUE TO WALLOW IN ABJECT POVERTY AS LONG AS WE DON’T REALISE WHAT VALUE LEADERSHIP IS. AS LONG AS YOU REMAIN STUCK WITH MEDIOCRE LEADERSHIP OF CHAKOLWA LUNGU, THEN YOU MUST AS WELL FORGET ABOUT MAKING ZAMBIA A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE IN. CORRUPTION AND STEALING IS THE ONLY THING ZAMBIANS CAN LEARN FROM EDGAR LUNGU. THIS GUY IS INSINCERE. THIS GUY IS A SMOOTH CRIMINAL. AND WE ARE GOING TO SEE MORE SCHEMES UNVEILED BY LUNGU AS WE GET CLOSER TO ELECTION TIME. BUT WE ARE CONSOLED BECAUSE THE HAND OF THE LORD IS UPON ZAMBIA. GOD WILL STILL FIGHT OUR BATTLE AND GIVE US HIS OWN LEADER FOR US, NOT THIS CHAKOLWA JAMESON.

    • Yesterday it was: “PF is broke, they are even failing to fund their campaigns.” And today it is: Why is PF awash in cash? Where did they get the money? UPND sycophants are also quick to point out that Govt is so, so, so, broke such that “Edgar” (as though it is his duty and NOT Govt) can’t afford to even pay civil servants at the moment. And yet they, all over a sudden, want us to believe there is plenty of TAXPAYERS MONEY laying around for PF to be able to steal enough, undetected, and fund their campaigns.

      Now, it is either Govt/PF is broke and there is NO money available to be stolen, or you are all lying !D!ots who have run out of issues to campaign on. So, WHICH IS WHICH!?

    • continue…

      Ati PF is like RB’s campaign in 2011. Really? Why do you people always want to pretend that you don’t remember Sata’s formidable political background? Trying to liken UPND/HH political background and acumen to that of Sata is really an insult to people’s intelligence. Especially to those of us who have lived long enough to remember Sata’s lengthy political career. The two (MCS and HH) are worlds apart, both in terms of political appeal and influence. Also Sata/PF laid a very fundamental developmental agenda for this Country which will be very hard for other political parties to campaign against. For as long as people/citizens are able to see with their own eyes, simply saying “HH WILL FIX IT” ain’t gonna work. Because the question most will and are asking is: FIX…

    • This is “PF Self De-campaigning Material”! When God hits you, everything you do is cursed. The grandiose thing becomes the grandiose curse. their material is just irritating everyone. It is not attracting anyone to PF at all and you will see this on 11.08.16.

    • I pray that those Zambians still blindly supporting PF will have their eyes open. The total amount of money spent on the regalia is tax payers` money that could have been used to buy medical supplies for the wider population – for the greater good. Our people are dying of preventable diseases in our ill-equipped public hospitals and yet the PF thinks it is acceptable to misapply public funds towards campaigns. Vote wisely Zambia or you will have yourselves to blame.

    • Oh they are putting the campaign materials in Choma?I thought pf said they were being attacked?How come the posters are not being torn too? So who is violent?
      VOTE HH/UPND FOR PEACE AND DEVELOPMENT

    • This info we knew about it .This is the money which Yamba refused to sign until one senior person signed for this tax payers money.The money was meant to pay civil servants through out zambia,hence the delay last month.When UPND form government the person who signed for this tax payers money will be arested and dealt with by the law.Lungu will not save him.My fellow zambians get the chitenge and money thats your money but vote HH.

    • That is free manna fro heaven. Zambians! Collect as many and distribute even among your goats and cows and dogs to wear. Get as much money as they can give but vote the real deal, change.

    • We told you. Wait and see. We will now show you how campaigns are done. August 11 ECL is winning. Better stop leaving in denayal.

  2. That’s enough material to dress up half the population! The power of incumbency is very rewarding. No wonder we must do our best to protect power from going to Kaponya (HH), GBM, Scott Mmembe and the Boer mafia types

    • Ask RB, he bought enough campaign materials to even dress up trees and dogs but lost miserably. The good thing is that poor impoverished Zambians will benefit from these fitenges to substiutute their daily attires

      Meanwhile Aleisa HH

    • It’s Chakolwa Chagwa who has brought Boers: to kill all the hippos in Luangwa National Park AND to take over farming land from Zambians. That’s why Chakolwa sneers at Zambian farmers as bakachema because he wants Zambia to be raped by Boers.

    • Don’t compare this chitenge distribution to RB’s. During RB’s rule the atmosphere was different, wherever you went people wanted change, it was in the markets, streets, offices etc. But now ECL can drive freely in his open vehicle through the streets of Lusaka and all you see is support and and support and support. So UPND you can comfort yourselves all you want but the writing is clear – it’s SONTA!SONTA! SONTA!

    • It’s a pity that we are experiencing a new kind of violence of smashing and burning cars. One wonders whether or not there is a correlation between these happenings with the kind of people that have assumed high positions in political parties. Some people are know for violence; towards employees, wife battering, insulting etc. What are we to expect if such people ever made it to presidency? It’s really scaring. Zambians we need to brace ourselves and pray.

    • RBs time is different from this time. And history will not repeat itself. And for your infor mation PF is getting advise from RB as he is the best person to tell a story on how hge could have avoided the lose. So chill. Viva EL

    • Doing it because you just want to cling to power even when you cant think the no vision President ECL that you have? shame on you.

  3. Will I be in time to get some of this to send to my relatives in the village. They need Chitenge materials big time!

    • TO THE PEOPLE WHO ARE IN SUPPORT OF THIS FULISHI WASTE: “ARE YOU GENUINE ZAMBIA? DO YOU LOVE YOUR FELLOW COUNTRY WHO DENIED VITAL SERVICES?
      YOU ARE DEMONSTRATING TO BE HEARTLESS AND MORALLY BANKRUPT.” THIS RECKLESS WASTE IS A SCANDAL? PF IS PROVING TO BE IRRESPONSIBLE AND WASTEFUL, IT MUST BE VOTED OUT OF POWER.

    • @MANOMAMBULWA. Take your ignorance to the grave. What waste. Its part of the demoractic process…Dont worry leave to us who contribute to the party to complain. Otherwise good move PF. This is in order.

  6. Please get them regalia, that is your money, tax payers money but vote HH. These thugs are stealing the last kwacha, as GBM has said they will account for that stolen money

  7. This is a clear indication that RB is the PF campaign advisor, this has RB writen all over it…. MMD spent so much on campaign materials in 2011 but we still voted for Sata.

    I think Lungu is missing the point, it is all about the vision for the country and polices not handouts. GBM and HH a telling people the right messages and not giving out chitenges and bicycles.

    With all the money that PF is spending, i still think they will be knocked off in the first round, the battle might be between UPND and FDD.

  8. Instead of paying our salaries they used our money to buy regalia, shame of you thieves. August 15 you will answer to the new goverment how much you stole

    • Where do you work naimwe ? You’re UPND Candrer ask Satanists for your Campaign allowance. Us we are well paid and well fed

    • Panyo
      you are a embassy worker in the UK start packing your bags.
      Don’t you know civil servants are paid late in zambia ?

    • What salaries. Gov doesnt owe any Civil Servant. Wait and see what happens after 11 August. PF is winning and my vote will be counted. Viva PF.. By the way learn to invest your monies in other viable businesses than depending on government pay alone. You lazzy chap. Stupid bati. Vote EL.

    • Which civil servants havent been paid ? We got paid on the 30th so next salary ni pa Sate nafuchi waumfwa ?

    • From well meaning party sympasythers like me… So does it bother you.. ? I can wait to cast my vote on one EL that vulgal, women and street vender beaters. No way. I cant wait. How i wish August 1 was tomorrw.

    • Continue dreaming and living in denial Mike and HH. We call it as it is. Civil servants salaries were delayed and government is struggling to pay

      Aikona supporting blindly

      ECL kuyabebele

  12. 2016 -2017 budget to dress Zambians green so they can have the memory of ECL when he is gone. Sonta where our pay is? Chiefs get money, sonta where regaila come from , ECZ dubai printing company. These guys will be cage, GBM has said it. It is plain people know that that is their money being used, ECL was probably drunk when all was happening.

  13. Why do people at times behave and think like a child? Each part has got there own funding shame if yours doesn’t have money and to tell you the truth that is not tax payer s money grow up tell your part to distribut there’s, now they have just started whatch the space.

  14. Well done PF now allow the opposition to campaign in peace as well and we shall see who has the best campaign strategy!!

  15. People dont liken this yo RB’s campaign. RB was up against a very seasoned political strategist who led his army into battle intact. HH is very different coz he has merely embraced members of the infamous FAMILY FOREST leaving out seasoned UPND members. These days do you see any of those old members campaigning alongside HH ? Their silence is too loud. They are doing a Donchi Kubeba on HH, wait you shall see.

  17. The general picture and talk of kopala, while doing the UPND symbol on their left hands ati “apa kulya”, the PF fist on their right ati “ili voti ni apa”.
    GBM watch your bank account.

    • That’s why they cannot keep jobs. The same crooked promises in 2011 about more money in their pockets and they are still unemployed.

  18. Presidential Team: Edgar Lungu, Inonge Wina, Rupiah Banda, Enoch Kavindele ,Felix Mutati, Sakwiba SiKota, Samuel Mukupa, Davies Chama. By the way it’s 10 helicopters not 8.

  20. Nomba ba UPND finshi fiwemepo kanshi? Tamubikapo ama poster imwe? Tulamona ama rally yenu ati “ni red chabe” bushe tema posters yene ayo? Abanenu babikepo chabipa. You teased that PF were not campaigning, now they want to start ati ni RB. There is morhing good in your eyes. Mailo ati bemba monkeys in the maize field, lelo ati GBM e running mate, aba bemba bawama. If you are normal human beings like the rest of us, what kind of humans? Nga chakutila muli bantu ngaifwe chachine, muli bantu bashani kanshi ba UPND?

  21. Economic Team: Alexander chikwanda, Caleb Fundanga, Mvunga,Magande,Chab were, Mwamba Peni,chileshe kapwepwe,Alexandre Nkhosi.
    Muchinga: Catherine Namugala, Ngosa Simbyakula, Stella Sata, kapwepwe, Sunday chanda and all adopted aspiring candies.

  23. Tu UPND watch this space imwe ba malinso. PF has delivered development to all corners of the country and this is just a reminder to our people that we mean business.
    As we mount our mega campaigns, we are taking development at the same time.
    Now let the Under 5s be seperated from real men, think tanks.
    NI SONTAPO MUDALA IF YOU CAN’T SELA BA LUNGU BA BOMBEKO!

  24. Thanks ba PF for dressing up our relatives.We now dont have to send clothes from the USA.They will dress,drink and eat with you but vote HH. This is RB 2.0.

    • By the way the POST has a very interesting story this morning on why the PF Kabwata rally graced by PF heavyweights was shunned by the public.Please PF stalwarts take time to read it and it will help you appreciate why this year you are going.

    • @Musonda Chanda: You do realise you are talking about The Post writing about PF campaigns here, right? When did M’membe’s Post ever wrote or said anything positive or constructive about PF/Edgar since the time the Cartel failed to takeover the Party from Sata/Edgar? Just think about it!

  25. Ask Lupia will tell you that chitenge materials dI’d nor help. They could have used that money to help the needy in communities

  26. I find this coming from PF cadres strange….ati if you vote UPND they will steal a lot because they will have to repay campaign sponsors to the point that they will sell Zambia…now ECL coming from a background were they had to get assistance from RB connections to fund campaigns to such extravagance I beg to ask the question where these funds are really coming from now since the PF has no income generating activities… laws need to change so that all party’s are accountable for sources of income and election financing it will be to the benefit of the rest of us

  27. This reminds me of MMD days who had enough material to dress trees and dogs…why is this only possible when a party in power. These people can not carry out the same logistics when it comes to agriculture or running the economy. This is all the corruption one way or another the taxpayer has been shortchanged somewhere via either handing overpriced contracts to PF companies or loans misappropriated from Zesco or bribes from the Chinese Construction Companies.

    • PF strategy is to bribe voters with regalia, intimidate the opposition and hope to rig the elections.

  29. The distribution of the regalia In large quantities is very consistent with Lungu and PF Election Rigging strategy. The regalia with Lungu’s portrait will be heavily distributed in Zambia’s border areas so that foreigners who were registered to vote in our elections can see Lungu’s photo and vote for him. We should warn foreigners in these border areas to stay away from voting or else they will be harmed. With high cost of living in Zambia will these chitenges put food on people’s plates? Of course not so vote for a change of govt. Vote Team HH/GBM and UPND.

  30. ELO LWANYA. PF NO SENSE. PEOPLE WILL GET THEM AND I NEED TEN OF THESE BUT I WILL NEVER DROP A VOTE ON PF.
    MASUMBA HAS BEATEN UP A UPND MEMBER IN MUFUMBWE AND THE MAN IS TAKEN TO MANYINGA MISSION HOSPITAL BATTLING FOR LIFE. MUFUMBWE PEOPLE HAVE VOWED THAT IF HE DIES, THERE WILL BE TOTAL WAR. PLEASE POLICE START MOBILIZING YOURSELF AND MASUMBA IS GONE SCORT FREE.

  31. The money wasted on these party chitengezi and helicopters would have solved UTH problem. no wonder Zambia is a poor rich country. Lungu has no vision but to waste money

  32. Do you remember the $192m loan that Lungu did not want to be disclosed? This is the one that has bought these campaign materials. Part of the money has gone into his account hence the K23billion.

  34. NOW THAT THE WHOLE COUNRTY IS GREEN , LETS VOTE PF PF PF PF PF thruogh out, IT SHOWS THE UNITY THE PARTY HAS TO RAISE MONEY TO FUND FOR 10 HELICOPTERS 8MILLION REGALLIA I THINK THIS COSTS LIKE 10 HELICOPTERS SAY US$100,000 AND REGALIA FROM THE QUALITY SAY US$50,000,000 NJINGA MOTORBKES TOTAL US$200,000,000 ANYWAY ITS NOT MUCH FOR CAMPAIGNS

  35. Ndeloleshafye pali ba PF umungulu!Guys,get the material and on 11th August vote for HH.Don’t kubelwila inkaama.

  37. RB Version 2.0 reloaded but don’t forget to also install the anti virus otherwise your vote will crush.

  38. Shallow PF Imagin what a vibrant economy zambia would have is all that material was produced in zambia.

    • True indeed. I saw one picture of some pfool saying Sonta while enjoying nshima from GBM milling and Kachema meat. The ***** could not think who processed the food he was eating. It is indeed a useless slogan of all time.

  39. Mukose bane. ECL destined to rule Zambia for the next 5 years. Most of you bloggers will start saying come 2021 PF is going. You were saying the same thing in January 2015 and who had the last laugh? Its time to retire some people from politics

  40. UPND people like “Spaka like lilo”, why has HH with all his riches not used his money to help the poor? You thing his campaigns has not costed so much? The problem is that what HH does is sacred and what PF does is evil in your eyes. Chiwamila garu mentality

    • PF kaponyas want to compare a sitting goverment that uses our borrowed 10 billion to a citizen businessman HH instead of leading by example.

      Is it the fault of HH that inflation is at 22% from a low of 7%, it it his fault that zambia produces nothing and imports everything? Is it his fault that despite being endowed with the most beautiful game parks zambian tourism is a joke and has to rely on trophy hunting instead ?

    • @ Easterner

      Why syphilitic crook RB does not help anybody with his ill gotten wealth?
      Why instead of linen for hospitals, PF spends tax payer money on regalia?
      Why certified 1mbecile like you has access to LT?

  41. Yayaya, yazanda. I was shocked to learn that HH was telling people of Chinsali that he was going to open the Universities immediately he assumed office of the Presidency. Could it be the same person who used to condemn the PF for continuing the construction of the Universities in Chinsali? What has changed now?

    • @41 Dyonko,in fact he told the people of NW that they were poor bcoz PF was taking their resources to NW and that when he got into power he was going to stop that meaning….he was going to discontinue all developments in Muchinga including these Universities! Why should a leader wanting to rule over a country be divisive?

  42. Zambians Its That Time When The The Government Has To Dress Everyone ! Please Receive The Regalia Attire Bought From Your PAYE Money & Lets Get Rid Of These Thugs For Good !
    Our Economy Has Been Eroded and Now they have the audacity to even show us they can buy such amount of campaign material while our families sleep on empty stomachs/Our Hospitals Have No Drugs/Our Civil Servant go unpaid/Massive Job Losses/Load shedding…..

  43. They build the most expensive roads in the world and enriched themselves, when we complained they said investor’s will come and bring jobs for our people, 500,000 jobs in 2016 alone.

    No investors have come and there are no jobs for our people who go hungry,
    While PF bank accounts have doubled in size.
    Every national policy that involves money is kept secrete by PF. like the recently exposed hippo trophy sale in the guise of a cull. Same with the export of FRA maize. Only media exposures put this in the open.
    Time to get rid of these thrives in the interests of the nation.

  44. That is enough linen for all the hospitals in Zambia … wondering how many hospitals have no linen!

  45. Lungu and his goverment even banned the word ‘corruption ‘ from being used in campaign ads.

    Is this a GRZ zambian want ?, surly zambia with all its riches can do better instead of blaming everything on ‘grobo’.

    Come August zambia must cleanse herself of this corrupt selfish entity called PF who are only interested in doubling their bank accounts.

  46. Go to UTH and see how people are dying like files because of no water and medicine, while cholera stalks our people.

    • Chappie Ulimbwa ! You are not anywhere near being human. we are talking about issue and all you can say is nayo nayo bustard.You bloody john solyeubwali !

  48. I pray that those Zambians still blindly supporting PF will have their eyes open. The total amount of money spent on the regalia is tax payers` money that could have been used to buy medical supplies for the wider population – for the greater good. Our people are dying of preventable diseases in our ill-equipped public hospitals and yet the PF thinks it is acceptable to misapply public funds towards campaigns. Vote wisely Zambia or you will have yourselves to blame.

  49. Indeed we have seen such massive support and display of regalia during UNIP days whilst MMD had hardly anything to give and FTJ kept urging people to get the ‘bribes’ but vote otherwise. Sata’s PF did the same donchi kubeba to RB’s MMD. These voters have probably become accustomed to this pattern: the one who dishes out the most extravagant amount of free chitenge’s actually is the one to not vote for:) But we shall see, sometimes history does not repeat itself, but whatever the case, my family, friends and relatives are voting HH and UPND gladly.

  51. WE the ordinary man on the street that is having difficulties to make ends meet during these difficult times are paying for this!!! This is disgusting !!! We the people of Zambia must voice our opinion 10 HELICOPTERS! What does it cost to fly a helicopter even for 1/2 an hour …. this is very sad indeed. While rural clinics can only offer panadol for every illness and nothing else this is disgusting!!! We must demand that a full account is made of : How much the regalia costs, how much the vehicles cost, how much the bicycles costs, how much the hire of helicopters costs, how much the fuel for this distribution costs, how much will be paid to people employed to do this, how much the accomodation costs…..WE WANT A FULL ACCOUNT AND WE WANT TO KNOW WHERE THIS MONEY CAME FROM…

  52. I only See Violence whe i see that material
    I only See Violence whe i see that material
    I only See Violence whe i see that material
    I only See Violence whe i see that material
    I only See Violence whe i see that material
    I only See Violence whe i see that material
    The violence material
    WATCH THE DISTRIBUTION THEY COULD BE HIDDING PRE_MARKED BALLOT PAPERS. WATCH EVERY MOVE THE HELICOPTERS MAKE AND FOLLOW THEM. LEAVE NO ROOM FOR RIGGING

  54. Government Funds being wasted… hope Ministry of Finance civil servants are making traceable records!!!

    • CONTINUE DREAMING MY FRND. IF THE OPPOSITION CAN AFFORD TO MOBILE FUNDS WHAT CAN STOP A PARTY IN POVER. YOU IRRITARATE CHAP. CONTINUE LEAVING IN DENAIAL. sha..

  55. while zambians are starving due to high prices of commodities, PF is extravagant and distributes campaign materials. I wish they could include a bags of mealie meal for each chitenge. people needs food and not chitenges.

  56. Whats wrong with spending a little on your supporters by dressing them up especially during festival times like this. The PF and its valued supporters have said before that NEVER shall we misuse BOMA MONEY for our party dealings. It is better to report facts than to just dramatize situations. We new way back that we were in a competition politically and have been getting ready. The 10 point plan is a carbon copy of the PF manifesto but the carbon paper was faded hence the unclear nature of the points. The 10 points were imported from PF by the run away fellows but basendele ichushi.

    • The problem is using government funds, funds meant to better the lives of the people of Zambia !!!! I refuse to pay any taxes from now on !

  57. So it now makes sense why those PF cadres yesterday attacked UPND helicopters, they were defending areas where those regalia were destined.
    Did you see or hear any PF leader condemning those attackers? Zero. Did you hear ECL condemning? Zero

    Warning: All political parties are in for a big show from PF…….., I am concerned Zambia doesn’t go on fire.
    These violence are huge and its bad for Zambians. People are dying in UTH, and yet freely hiring 10 helicopters…whoau

  58. My party pf doing what it is best at…harder nabena ba masonist

  59. Father God, make your.words come true. You said the battle is not to the strong nor the race to the swift. Jehovah Gibbor, fight the battle for HH. Make him successful and victorious in Jesus’s mighty Name. We plead the omnipotent power of the sacred blood of Jesus over HH and team. We bless you Father God. To you belongs the power, glory, praise, and majesty. Amen.

  60. PF is Sata’s party. PF is usind Sata’s stragegies and not Rupia’s. You have been to Kasama and Mpika. Just wait for our turn!

  61. GO MIGHTY PF GO!!!now “chuundu chaitwa” chairman hh and his political prostitutes will feel the heat!!!8million PF campaign material shall paint Zambia green!!!BRAVO TO OUR FUNDERS FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE!!RECALL WE DEAL WITH REAL RICH MEN LIKE ALIKO DANGOTE,A LOT OF CHINESE DOING OUR ROADS,ETC SO POOR HH AND GBM WILL BE BURRIED ALIVE IN PF CAMPAIGNS!!!”UMUNTU NI LUNGU-2016!!!GO PF GO!!CHAMIBABA FI UPND!!!

  64. “We are suddenly seeing a reduction in load-shedding, roads which were neglected hurriedly being worked on, chiefs being given allowance increments, women and youths being given empowerment funds, party cadres fighting over campaign funds among others. On the down side, the cost of living for families is beyond reach, unemployment levels are going up, inflation is still in double digits, the national debt is going up, chronic shortages of medicine in our clinics, rural health centers and hospitals, delayed salaries for civil servants, delayed payments for businessmen and women doing business with government, retirees not being paid, tight money supply in the economy and levels of political intolerance rising,” Mwaanga observed. The Post 15/6/2016

  65. If PF has capacity to hire choppers to distribute this number of campaign materials, why are they failing to run the economy? Numbers do not lie… real interest rates as at yesterday were 42 percent! The highest ever by commercial banks in 18 years. Luampa hospital is injecting distilled water in people for malaria. Nakanya pupils in Nalikwanda constituency have no desks, no blackboards (those installed by KK eaten by termites). Zambians are not stupid. All they read out of this is greed, incompetence, corruption and abuse of resources. Zambians are more awake about their economic realities than ever before. Like someone above has written, that which is cursed will have negative results from all investments it makes. You can find 8 million regalia and yet failing to equip hospitals with…

    • Interest rates were 150% under Chiluba
      Under Kaunda there was no money to give loans.
      Zambia will recover soon. Don’t be cheated by new church goers

  67. Last week the PF publicised their new campaign strategy showing 3 exploited young women desperate to make money exhibiting their extra large bottoms/ buttoc.ks on which PF slogans were written in big print as if to ask their members to ‘SONTAPO’. What a demeaning insult to women! I have yet to see to see Mrs Lungu, her daughter Tasila, and Mumbi Phiri the ‘sexy’ expert wearing them. While other parties taking part in the August elections are using their heads and brains, the PF are using their bottoms and promoting promiscuity. Now they are taking it country-wide.

  68. CHILUBA = MWANAWASA = RB = HH = SONTAPO = HH FARMS, PRIVATIZATION OF
    MINES, GBM CONTRACTS?

    SATA = LUNGU = SONTAPO = SCHOOLS, COLLEGES, TRADES SCHOOLS, ROADS , BRIDGES, CLINICS ETC.

  70. PF is doomed. The failed RB strategy of trying to woo
    voters using material things will not take them anywhere.
    Campaigns are about wining people’s hearts and minds, this
    is achieved through convincing voters on what you will do
    for them. It is just like someone trying to propose a girl by giving
    material things without a manifesto. Furthermore, the lavish
    campaigns using stolen public resources will infuriate some
    quarter of society. For example, civil servants, farmers, students
    and the unemployed.
