    • Ba Nez, you are missing an opportunity to say something constructive panting the ball to losers like Mushota and her cousin Bwalya Chileya .

    • In the west the two leaders would have held a joint press conference but alas these African dictators avoid the press like rabies, They support each other but when their countries are faced with some disaster before their people the run to the west for help and not to their fellow dictators in Africa.

    • Hope African leaders are able to learn from each other, and through each other. Hope our president is also learning as he travels to other African countries.

    • @LT, we will talk to NEZ , he can’t just understand why HH is prison.
      Threats are not cool, sounds PFsh.

    • We elect thieves in office and get surprised when the coffers are emptied. We elect hyenas and wonder who ate the goats?

    • It is not surprising that pfailures hang around each other. Ghana has blown away a fortune from discovery of oil and are now broke, all in less than 10 years. PF has managed to do the same with Zambia, from forex surpluses of $3.2 billion in 2011 to foreign loans of $17.2 billion now. Mutati has even admitted that PF will default on the Eurobonds. Zambia has nothing to learn from Ghana. Lungu is creating a Club of African PFailures.

  2. What is President Akufo Addo’s main objective of gracing Dictator and Sadist Lungu? Akufo Addo has a reputation in Ghana of fighting Election Petitions all the way to the Supreme Court. His host Dictator and Sadist Lungu has refused to hear the Petition at Concourt. Lungu manipulated ECZ and Concourt to rig the 2016 Election. Can President Akufo Addo with this experience advise Visionless Lungu on how to deal with the Petition? While Wining and Dining with Dictator and Sadist Lungu President Akufo Addo should realise that his former Opposition Compatriot HH has been incarcerated by his host on Trumped Up Treason Charges and he is languishing in Jail even though he did not commit Treason. Apart from opening a low key Trade Fair President Akufo Addo should try and persuade Lungu to Hear…

    • You will continue making noise like this and each day that passes you are becoming more and more irrelevant.

  3. If Ghana President is not going to man up and confront Lungu of his ill treatment of HH, other political prisoners and all his dictatorial rule on Zambia, then Addo will be useless and an embarrassment to the people of Ghana and its democracy. Ghana is one democratic and respected country in Africa and as such we expect better from Nana Addo. He should not listen to the lies this Museveni/ Mugabe groomed clueless Mofon Lungu.

  4. @Nsimanadelele1:you really dream.do you surely think Mr Addo can even ask president Edgar Lungu about HH?you guys, do you live in Africa or on planet pluto?
    All those African presidents who visit Zambia or meet ECL abroad never dare asking him about HH as it simply doesnt concern them!!!THE FACT THAT AMERICA,UK,CHINA,EU,RUSSIA,JAPAN,SA,ETC PRESIDENTS ARE QUIET ABOUT HH SPEAK VOLUMES!!IF UPND CONTINUE INSULTING PF GOVNT & ECL,YOU MUST PREPARE TO SEE HH LONGER IN JAIL!!
    Recall,when KK was in mukobeko,its the world leaders who forced FTJ Chiluba to release Dr KK urgently.HAVE YOU HEARD ANY PRESIDENT FORCE ECL TO RELEASE HH?NEVER!!WHY?BECAUSE THEY HAVE WATCHED THE VIDEO-SIMPLE!!

    • @Njimbu,
      I am sorry, you are misusing the KK`s case here, and hence misleading others.
      With your level of knowledge, you should very well know that KK case is not comparable to HH. If you don’t know, KK was former Head of State for 27 years, while HH was just a Presidential candidate. KK was internationally known during his presidency for his leadership of black African opposition to South African apartheid. KK was accused of involvement in a failed October coup attempt but never charged with treason. KK was on hunger strike. So you can not compare world leaders reaction to KK compared to that of HH, totally two different cases. Peace to all!!!

  5. Says a lot about our Zed that we only get ” bottom feeders” as visitors.Kenya ,Egypt and ZA are always getting visitors like Obama ,Netanyahu ,Narendra Modi & Angela Merkel…real heavy hitters unlike our bottom feeder state visitors.

    • SUCH LEADERS CANNOT VISIT A COUNTRY WHERE AN OPPOSITION ELECTION LOSER CAN RISK THEIR LIVES BY RUNNING “ROAD RAGE” WITH THEIR MOTORCADES.

  6. Another trip to the airport for Lazy Lungu and his Defence Chiefs…another excuse to shy away from work, I am sure Lazy Lungu will also take four days off following Addo!!

  7. Lungu must ask Akufo to apologise for the mistreatment of Chipolopolo during the 2014 world cup qualifier. Otherwise we will rename Kwame Nkrumah college

    • You were simply not good enough even before you touched down in Kumasi …really laughable..your friends are fit because they eat nutritious fufu and alternate with rice and yam …you on the other hand its maize meal & beer 365 days a year!!

  8. Good morning U5. I am bringing the President of Ghana to see you at 9hrs to teach you how opposition leaders win elections. Make sure you draw enough water in that bucket to give you a good bath. Amd put on your best red shirt okay. I have asked Mutinta to bring an early breakfast. Although I hear that she is not amused with your statement that you are quite haooy where you are, she has interpreted that to mean you do not miss her and she wonders why all of a sudden.

  9. With too many stupid people in Zambia, especially political cadres, how do you expect that country yup develop? #destinedtosufferforlife!!
