  1. This is Lazy’s drinking mate he is also good dancer like Lazy. They have been singing about ICT for god knows when, GRZ ministries do not even have a websites do download and print out documents/forms.

  2. These guys are using ICT now to steal money. They are busy detailing ICT ideas when the kids at UNZA have no financial support to enable them become better citizens through education. What comes first: ICT or education? They go together. IDI.OTS!
