  1. Good, lets see what HH comment on this one will be. For all we know, all big English soccer giants go to Asia, China specifically to play, does it mean they are all corrupt? HH and UPND please answer. China is a huge market and if you can exploit it well and use it to your advantage, why not? Zambia is doing the same. This thing of saying potential, potential and yet you keep living in shums must come to an end and lets work with China, they have the best infastructue in the world and why cant we work with them?
    The longest and most technologically advanced bridge on sea is built by the Chinese, is it not a wonder that HH in the day is pretending to hate them and in the night he is kneeling before them? Thats what he did even during he privatistion of the mines, Number One CROOK in…

    The longest and most technologically advanced bridge on sea is built by the Chinese, is it not a wonder that HH in the day is pretending to hate them and in the night he is kneeling before them? Thats what he did even during he privatistion of the mines, Number One CROOK in Zambia is HH, he destroyed everything on the Copperbelt and yet he wants to f00l some people, NO, NO, NO!!!!!

    • If you don’t know history, you are doomed. Read, research and then use the knowledge to educate yourself and others.
      If you talk about privatization, ask the following people. How powerful was HH (at 31 yrs ) for him to destroy the country?
      Ask the following who were very influential at that time;
      these are the people we should be asking questions. Enoch Kavindele, Minister of Commerce, Daniel Munkombwe, Edith Nawakwi, Mr Valentine Chitalu, Mr Francis Kaunda appointed by Chiluba to lead the privatization of ZCCM. Mr Willa Mung’omba, Mr Abel Mukandawire was chairman ZPA, Mr Luke Mwanashiku, Mr Edward Shamutete, Mr Kaunda Lembalemba-minister of mines, Mr Ronald Penza – Minister of Finance. Mr Lewis Preston-Former president of World Bank.

    • HH has stuck money in PANAMA which he store in the PRIVATIZATION LOOT of the NATION. No amount of HALLUCINATIONS can change this fact. He should bring back that money into ZANACO. He is a THIEF. If he can explain why he took to the TAX HAVEN country I will be happy to listen.

  3. When are those Independence day football games between ruling party vs the opposition? UNIP VS MMD, we need to see PF VS UPND and the two captains Edgar Lungu and HH shake hands at the coin toss. I think this will unify the country. No body wanna see Chinese people in the soccer field.
