We have a situation where the likes of kalusha bwalya have been forced into politiics because the only way to achieve anything in zambia is through political means. If you do not know anyone in goverment you will not go far in life! this is life under PF. meanwhile we now have a coach who looks like a dressed chicken that has been soaked in hot water.
