    • Are there no people of integrity to be appointed to such positions at institutions of higher education? What message are we sending to the students; that integrity doesn’t matter? This is a corrupt man!

    • owehhh Twafwa…; iichalo mulubwa.

      You might as well forget Cavendish… Cavendish has succumbed to being a dish literally to the lunatic RB.

      RB has never found anything and improved on it. Look at his history and ask girlfriends and wives

      The country knows this.

      How do you get such a lunatic to be the head?

      We need Common sense in Africa

  1. The reason for the downgrade of all universities in the country to mere colleges is right there. Right in front of all world. A failed country with a failed education system. What a shame!

  2. RB also has an honorary doctorate like Chishimba Kambwili , he said he prefered to call him Mr. RB and not Dr..if I am not mistaken it was honoured to him by Rusangu university

  3. It’s a good move I trust RB and I like the way he uses his brain is soo smart I hope he will be welcomed by everyone

  4. It is unfair to some extent.
    Mr Rupiah Banda has been in services for many years and we all knows what brought him down during his presidency; Corruption and abuse of powers.Moreover , if such people of ages and qualifications continues to occupy the vacancies in positions, Then when are the youths going to be employed?.

  5. So ninshi ifwe bwebashala we cant do that job? I wish FTJ and Mwanawasa were still alive and the jobs they would offer them. Especialy the criminal Chiluba.
