President Edgar Lungu has reiterated that he will complete all the projects that government has embarked on since 2011 once he is re-elected in office.

President Lungu said this on the occasion of the commissioning of the K11.2million Luangwa District Hospital in Lusaka province today.

The Head of State said government has made significant strides to improve the quality of health services across the country.

President Lungu said the development signifies the PF government’s resolve to provide cost effective and quality health care as close to the Zambian people, adding that government is determined to ensure that mothers do not walk long distances to seek health services.

He said the construction of Phases 1 and 2 of Luangwa District Hospital will not only improve the health status of the people but will also greatly contribute to the socio-economic development of the country.

President Lungu also said the PF government’s vision of providing 650 health pots across the country is yielding fruits, adding that Lusaka province is a beneficiary of 35 health posts.

He further revealed that over 400 centres across the country have also been rehabilitated and expanded.

And President Lungu told the people of Luangwa to shun politicians who are instigating violence during campaigns.
He said this when he addressed a rally and promised to develop the district once he is re-elected.

    • August 11 ……UPND and HH will be history…tired of these guys…..i wish Aug 11 can be tommorow so we can send HH to Pemba…GBM to Kamasa and Canisius Banda can continue hallucinating

      H is a pathetic Liar

      HH over-promising

      HH false hope

      Don’t vote for HH

      August 11 vote PF ( Edgar )

      I thank you

    • LOOK AT THE LIAR< THAT THIEF KAMINAMINSA KACHASO LUNGU AT IT AGAIN. I AM GLAD THAT MOST ZAMBIANS NOW KNOW LUNGU AS A PRETENDER AND LIAR WHO WILL NEVER TELL PEOPLE THE TRUTH. LUNGU'S EVIL PLAN IS TO DESTROY ZAMBIA COMPLETELY.

    • Zambia has no money Mr President. The IMF is coming to squeeze the poor until their eyes are red. Unless you will get some more billions of kaloba.

  1. HH has poor political judgment. Instead of him being on the side of zambians he takes sides with Fred whom zambians are against.
    He was going to attract some votes of he supported govt zra stance on post. Meanwhile the Upnd on the CB are facing a hard time. Only few tongas are attending their rallies. Kikikiki

    • The sense in your comment is 100% on point. If only HH can stance with ZRA. Trust, he will win gain a lot of votes

  2. Yes people must shun politicians who preach violence. People must shun the Panga Family and Lungu himself who is now acting like a Warlord. Lungu is instigating all the violence and arson in this country. He pretends to be humble during the day but a thug at night. He became PF President thru violence and he hopes to retain power thru rigging and use of violence. Lungu must be stopped if Zambia is not to be another failed state like Zimbabwe. Forward with HH and UPND.

    • Zambia is a failed state already. Under Chakolwa, Zambia is headed to being like a combination of Somalia, DRC and Zimbabwe.

  3. So there many goats out there who still support the Pama Fi party of plunderer president ECL who has managed to loot K11.9m within 1.6years ? Am not wrong to assume that abana ba nconkonono bengi especially in the poverty stricken compounds of Lusaka.

  4. Listen to this reckless Lazy Bum Edgar…where is he going to get the money? He will only continue so he can continue stealing and increasing his networth.

  5. A WORD OF CAUTION TO LUNGU : “POWER IS SWEET UNTIL YOU LOSE IT, KNOW HOW TO USE IT WHEN YOU HAVE IT” – WORDS OF WISE MAN.

    • No doubt my dear friend….PF is winning

      …..and this will be the end of HH if not the entire UPND

      August 11 vote PF ( Edgar )

      I thank you

  6. Please ECL pay us contractors for the works we have already done before elections. Otherwise we are not going to vote for you. You owe us money for the last six months or more for the works we have already done and certified for payment. Please pay us before August 11. Otherwise Bye Bye.

  7. Die hard upnd cadres (mostly tongas) seem to have disappeared from this fora BECAUSE THE HUGE CROWDS ATTENDING EDGAR LUNGU’S RALLIES HAVE GIVEN THEM HEADACHE!!!WE TOLD YOU THAT THERE IS NO WIND OF CHANGE IN ZAMBIA TODAY!!!PF WILL WIN THESE ELECTIONS FROM ROUND 1 ITSELF!!!THE MASSIVE DEVELOPMENTAL PROJECTS WHICH PF INITIATED ACROSS ZAMBIA SHALL HELP PF RETAIN POWER IN 2016!!!ITS VERY CLEAR ON THE GROUND THAT MAJORITY VOTERS ARE VERY MUCH BEHIND PF!!”UMUNTU NI LUNGU-2016!!GO PF GO!!

  8. This man Lungu will promise to pee whisky for all and fart money if that would make him win. He is useless, incompetent and Mugabe’s whipping boy. Vote him out. PF hooliganism and incompetence must go. Where will he get all this money to complete all his projects. He should start completing his alcoholic anonymous self development first. Zambia cannot always be borrowing money from other countiresand sending food for free to his crony old man Mugabe.

    • Chakolwa gets 50% kickbacks on all these contracts. That’s how his net worth has climbed astronomically in just one year. ZRA should audit his income and growth in his net worth and demand tax immediately.

  9. ELC is headed for a landslide victory that the world will leave to remember.He has taken development to all corners of our great nation.Thumbs up ELC. Am blessed with moving around Zambia at least i have seen it with my eyes.Kano nga ebo baleteka ninshi yilifye bwino efyo yaba zed(unless its them in power then things are ok
    Lets learn to call a spade a spade.

  10. Edgar Lungu is probably the most incompetent leader in Southern Africa, and in the history of Zambia. That he can attract crowd this big shows how gullible some Zambians are. Serious Zambians deserve better.

  11. Is there anyone in UPND who can beat Edgar Lungu? No one.

    Now tell me, how is Mr Cartel Mmembe this morning? I hope mule bapempulako.
