Mr. Chanda adds that on the third and fourth of September, the President will attend the China -Africa forum which will also be attended by 45 other African Heads of State.
The Presidential Spokesperson told Journalists during a media Briefing at State House that President Lungu will use the last two days of his visit to tour Jiangxi Province where he will also witness the twinning of the Province with Zambia’s Muchinga Provin

The President is expected to leave China on the 7th of September 2018.

The airport will draw every top PF d**k head.
And listen to the airport runway interview by some deadnbc numbskull.
Did you mean Dick Cabesa?

Going to beg again after Turkeys problems have become obvious
In exchange for twinning that tiny Chinese province, the Chinese will get all our land and government contracts.
Well done your excellency.
Your are a true patriot with a vision.

Hooo it is Chinese, NOT Chimese?
Have noticed that the officials travelling on this trip have been deliberately omitted by Amos as its a long list.
Our country has been mortgaged to tu ma midget Chocho-lee.
Obviously being called by his masters to present the quarterly report on the colonization of Zambia progress. Remember we’re now a province of China. Thanks to corrupt Lungu.
One thing we shoild remember is that these guys are borrowing and spending but its us the people of Zambia abaleshala nenkongole. Awe tulifipuba
HH mortgaged our country a long time ago but with dung brains you couldn’t know, we knew.
Edgar should realize that the only way Zambia as a country can move forward is to invest in science & technology rather than depending on china for everything,infact china are only interested to rip our resources & put us in huge debt with their fake infrastructure projects.
He has more pressing issues to attend to like touring in Chinese Province for two days…he knew he was going to China to beg and auction off whatever little we have this week but opted to go to Harare, then EP for two days for…..serious lack of priorities or clear sign of having little to do whilst he is office.
@lolo what kind of technology not made a decision in china,
witchcraft?
@lolo…That’s very true. We need to invest heavily in science and technology, (STEM subjects) instead of just depending on other nations to do technical things for us. But, unfortunately, that’s beyond clueless Lungu’s capacity. Expect he looooves touring the world, while his fellow countrymen and women wallow in poverty. He’s the world’s best known tourist. We can’t even perform a simple DNA test, 53 years after independence. What a shame.
At least no insults came out of that foul mouth!

You are just becoming too personal. It is not good for your health. Probably it’s you who is jealousy of Larry Mweetwa and his accomplishments. Please don’t think people are living your poor life. Mweetwa made a difference in his life and probably will not suffer in his entire life.

This is what we should be celebrating, not hating. I Guess your entire clan cannot boast of any of Mweetwa’s credentials. Jealousy down, Chita nawe.

Wasted Lazy Lungu years indeed!!
Hatribes Utd. Lazy bum tribalist hooligan bully son of a tribalist polygamist father who never taught him toile training soiling in public Hagain.
UPND and tribalism organization are one and same thing.
He is going today August 30 and coming back September 7. That’s 9 days! Does he realize how broke this country is?
This is what i mean when i say Zambia has no President just a figurehead…these are wasted years!!
This is what I mean when I say Zambia has Childish for an opposition leader. Zambia has no opposition. What we have is a tribal agenda only.
Who is acting president ??
Grandma Old Hen Bo Inonge!!
Seems like Lungu rules the country from foreign capitals and he comes to Zambia to either campaign or for holidays.
HH rules the H-opposition from Namwala.
Had he been flying to Japan, I would have been happy. Their expertise is second to none. Was he not in Zimbabwe two days ago? I like president Lungu, but this is too much flying.
Harare doesnt count as his private jet only stayed for less than 8 hours..
And didnt sign any useless MOUs
Has he ever stayed in state house for a week or 3 days? This man can move i don’t know if he has time for our mother in state house i just hope what his doing is benefiting the country because this is way too much, i dont’t what his avoid by being at state house. I pray that one day he will reflect on this with a smile or regret because i don’t see why our leader its always moving. Lord gives a signal…
Has Mutinta and Charmaine ever stayed home together?
Y.A.A.I.
@Wiser…Lungu doesn’t like staying in Zambia for too long. He knows Lusaka is filthy with uncollected garbage all over the place. And he doesn’t want to do anything about it. So, his solution is. ..go to clean countries and stay away from Zambia as frequently as possible—hang out in clean countries, enjoy some exquisite cuisines while sipping red wine—and afterwards go dancing to foreign music, while the rest of us back home in Zambia are buried in garbage up to our necks. In a lay man’s language, he’s using our hard earned taxpayer money to have a nice time, while salaries of some civil servants are delayed indefinitely. Just remember to vote this guy out in 2021, if the ConCourt allows him to stand.
More money in their pockets!!
Zambians really are amazing people your president is out of the country he travels a lot, when he is home he is lazy bum,grow up guys. Thank God I have never been to Zambia, just got married to a Zambian lady, boy will think twice to visit Zambia will rather go to Zimbabwe for holiday, will never belittle their leader.
You clearly dont know what you are talking about, no wonder Uncle Bob stayed in office for more than 25 years…I dont think you are really interested in visiting Zambia just enjoy your Zambian wife.
JohnBrown….good for you. We don’t need people like you in Zambia. Stay away.
Thank Jay Jay.
@Nostradamus ur question lacks merit & you’re such kind of people that makes this country not to move forward.China it is what it is today because of technology & science . By the way Chinese govt sends thousands if not millions of Chinese students to go & study science & technology in America.
“Mr. Chanda adds that on the third and fourth of September, the President will attend the China -Africa forum which will also be attended by 45 other African Heads of State.”
I don’t believe 45 African heads of state will attend this forum. That is almost all the African leaders. I think this is an excuse to try and legitimize ECL’s trip. These are meetings that can be delegated to a relevant minister at a fraction of the cost – which usually starts from the huge entourage to the airport.
Waiting for Lungu’s usually empty tarmac speech/promises and the ever present throngs of idle GRZ hangers on .Visits to poverty stricken Misisi ,Mongu ,Chipata and Lundazi needs to replace your foreign joyrides.
Kikikikikiki…..clearly cibaba, our trib.al friends!!
Ba Lazy Jay Gay, mukafwapofye ku cikonko, bululu wenu taka ikalepo pakafulo kalya, teka ma trib.alists iyo…….kikikikikiki. Ubufumu uwaba tri.bal Hacks kushinguluka muma courts of law.
Can you imagine his trib.al lawyers don’t even know where to take their tri.bal client’s appeal, bata ku Supreme noti ku Appeal court!!! Are they grade sevens, Yaba!!!!
Tribalist Ha-not even ashamed of their tribalism. These guys surprise me! I wish they were not hiding behind the keyboard. I know they look like Prof. Hansoni.
What is all this unintelligible gibberish above by the so-called ‘upnd cadre’? – and off topic as usual. Try and provide some constructive rebuttals, at least.
They haven’t got the faculties to respond apart from the usual claptrap about tribal, HH, UPND which is frankly irrelevant …they are like small kids following blindly!!

to do what in China? all the chinese have moved to Zambia and taken over the country, billboards are even written in chinese. no need to go to china just talk to the chinese they are selling chickens as we speak.
Abo Ba Jona, baya again, manone’ pandeke!!
They should stop this nonsense of ‘twinning’ cities or provinces.Muchinga Province will never be anywhere near Jiangxi Province. We know they will take this opportunity to beg China to help them settle the Eurobond
We should stop this nonsense of thinking that HH is a savior. He is a god in Paradise Papers.
A joker for a president! We lost the plot completely as a nation; directionless with these so called leaders in control. Painful times ahead and all self – induced.
