    • Hail the level headed son of the land. Get captivated by your people on the kopala platform. People on the kopala, hail your beloved PRESIDENT one His Excellency President Edgar Chagwa Lungu, the commander in chief of the armed forces enjoying his tenure.

    • Press on Mukwasu, Kateka wamano, Nganya. Glad you’re transfixed on the big goal of national development leaving haters chocking in dust of hatred and envy. Lekeni chibanyonge manje ba Mulongoti and the whole legion of sore losers.

    • Mulongoti has just questioned. Does it mean if you question, you hate. Democratic right, do you know it. In civilised countries, the President can even invite Mulongoti for a cup of tea despite Mulongoti questioning where the man comes from.

    • When is he expected in Southern province to commission such important projects? Even just the ground breaking of the road construction of Kafue-Mazabuka road that brings sugar to all our homes.

  1. When the president will visit Global Industries to commission the new plant,in Ndola,he should not be misled that the plant has just been build now,it was completed in 2016 and production started end of 2016,so this plant has been in operation for more than a year ,so its surprising that they are saying commissioning a new plant now, which has been in operation for a year.And the majority of workers at the plant are not on contract in case the president is cheated that they have employed 400 people on contract and these workers are not even on fixed salary,right now they have switched off the plant so that the president will believe that its a new plant,the question is it tax they have been avoiding?

  2. First time this one has said something without mentioning HH.You can export thousands of rats to the far east and become rich.

  3. Mwakalombe’s English is as bad as Bowman’s. Even on ZNBC news yesterday he said the company that will be commissioned by Edgar Lungu makes food for cattles. And his construction for sentences is very bad.

  4. we all know why lungu is going to the copperbelt. we all know the traffic to mines by PF officials is to receive brown envelopes. lungu has brought about so much confusion with regards to investors, how does a president take up the role of labour minister, mines minister and ZDA.
    bwana lungu please spare us, we know you miss your salary but please its embarrassing for a head of state to be on a salary from investors. no wonder investors like avic are behaving the way they are.
    we know lungu has consented a certain mine, to sub contract miners as its cheaper since these miners will have less privileges.
    copperblet is infested with foreigners working even as lowly as guards… shame on you

  5. God is a no respecter of man. Here is ECL who hails from Chawama Compound, and today is president of this great nation, Zambia.
    This is the cause of bitterness from opposition leaders, and to a larger extent can’t fault them. The world’s standard would expect HH to have been voted into power, but lo and behold Edgar was chosen by God’s sovereign will to be president. We may argue for or against, truth be told ECL is president, whether by default or not, we must submit to God’s will.

    • This bitterness defense is childish. KK was not an eduacted man, neither chiluba or sata. all came from humble backgrounds. Infact ECL’s conduct will affect chances for people from lowly backgrounds to be trusted.
      Zambia should vet people before there even allowed to hold public office. The man is a known lover of money from way back including his beer issues are well documented.
