    • Is she not the drama Queen at Swedish embassy with Mukwita? Politics has bought her out of church. We are free ukumufwaya now.

    • @Lombe (MA), the biggest problem lies with people that hold genuine PhDs like Nkandu Luo and Luke Mumba just to mention two. These people insist that they are addressed Dr., Prof. and so on and that is where the problem starts.

      If such people (Luo and Mumba) humbled themselves to a point where only their output, work or results spoke for them, then it is possible to have a sane society and Lusambo and the like would have less reason to imitate anything …

    • You are close because they both have an African Methodist Episcopal Church (AMEC) background and both have served as CCZ Seretary Generals, but they are two different persons with very different characteristics. Good try though.

  1. Obsessed with people with honorary doctorates is become a syndrome in Zambia. Dr Sondashi shud start clinical trials for such individuals

  2. Even me I am asking for a Honorary Doctorate. Where are they sold mwebantu? I am tired of being called Mr.

    By the way people of Zambia, where is OUR BRIDAGIER GENERAL? He has been quiet of late.
