Good luck Enerst and congratulations. Please find me a Toyi Tomato whilst you’re there, thanks in advance.
CONGRATULATIONS ERNEST, KEEP FLYING THE ZAMBIAN FLAG HIGHER AND HIGHER!!!!
Hello Ernest:
You are one of the smartest people the Zambian Enterprise has ever produced and thank you for making us proud … just make sure the profits from there are also used to boost CEC’s capacity at home.
Kudos to you and thanks once more for all the great things you do for Mother Zambia.
You are the best,
Well done and congratulations. shows that Zambians do so well outside where they are given a chance. yet in our own country corrupted with Politicians, such people will never be appreciated. what a loss for Zambia
Yes, he belongs there with other corrupt crooks!
you have issues so much negative energy
your mind has big blood clots and you seriously need medical attention. If you want to talk corruption look around here in zambia.
Nubian Princess – You exude negative energy. Can be felt as far as Alaska.
I suppose he has not the cadre qualities to run our own companies…just imagine how big that utility in Nigeria must be given the size of the country. Wishing Ernest the best!!
Trust @Jay Jay to say something negative.
Be positive Sir
God bless you
True man. Not forgetting the competition in nigeria with all those learned guys. Its thumbs up indeed.
Congratulations Enerst.
CONGRATULATION
Hats off to Ernest although I hear that certain disgruntled Nigerians are already scheming to oust him. A recent article carried by a Nigerian online publication is quite instructive. Check out this link: http://theunion.com.ng/business-economy/is-abuja-disco-complying-with-nercs-regulation-on-local-content/
This is a Very good attitude within Africa. Africa needs to rely on African skills to solve african problems. Botswana recruited plenty of Zambian school teachers to lay the foundation for good education in that country. Nigeria knows it has problems that only a fellow african can have the experience to solve. Its time we started having confidence in ourselves
Congratulations. DO an excellent job
I have realised that in zambia,Zambians don’t appreciate people positions in life,ninshi they will call you names.At least he will be appreciated in Nigeria.Congratulations sir.
They might appreciate him they might fight him even more, you never know.
Congrats!
Congratulations Mr. Mupwaya. We wish all the best and remember that that appointment is the beginning not the end.
Congratulations sir,Zed is difficult to be professional. .,,,too much political interference.
Good job Mr. Mupwaya! WHile we are at it, Je Je’s loser will be packing next week, lets hope his party will find another suitable successor, possibly from North Western Province this time!
Congratulations. Keep Zambia spirit burning.
CONGRATULATIONS ENERST. You are brilliant and fly your family flag. It is your family and people of the highest intellectual capacity that will understand your move to serve other nations instead of wasting time in your dilapidated self centred zambia. It is sad to see yet again and again zambians doing extremely well in other countries.
You were called names, nearly framed of abuse of office. Why why mother zambia….Stop it. If not the country will remain one of the poorest. Pull up your socks zambia.
Congratulations big bro, Good News
Good job boss wish you all the best…
Congrats and we wish him Gids guidance as he undertakes that mammoth task.
