President Edgar Lungu has left for Muchinga Province on a working visit.

President Lungu was seen off at Zambia Air Force base by service chiefs, government officials and PF Secretary General Davies Mwila and other PF members.

The President left around 08.35 hours this morning.

While in Muchinga, President Lungu is expected to launch the Zampalm Out Grower Scheme in Kanchibiya district.

Government through the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) has injected an initial one million Kwacha to support the Zampalm Out Grower Scheme in Kanchibiya.

Over 2,000 small scale farmers in Senior Chief Kopa and Chief Kabinga will benefit from the Zampalm out grower scheme project during the 2018/2019 farming season.

  1. I wish i had a job like lazy EL where by i do not have to spend anytime in my office and no one questions me, ZED is in auto Pilot

    • I think president Lungu is a very smart man. No wonder Sata relied on him as an advisor.
      It reminds me of Jeremy Irons as Pope Alexander VI about revenge. He says “Revenge should never be seen as such. It could wait a life time if it must and should never be done publicly.”
      Chitotela is feeling assured, Chimense was retired before being arrested and now ECL is talking about Kambwili like he regrets what he did to him.

    • 1.3 – You are very gullible….what makes you they are feeling assured? The only reason they are not arrested for big crimes is that State House was involved so they are looking for cases where they are not involved.

  2. @ECL, the 2000 small scale farmers to benefit from the project don’t know anything about ZAMPALM shareholders, to them the person commissioning the project is the one who has facilitated. So you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to figure who’ll get the vote there.

  3. Lungu should rule Zambia until he is tired, he is such a hard working President the best we have had. He does not tolerate corruption as can be seen from the arrest of Chitotela and General Chimese and Jimmy Fingers. He loves his people and is actively involved in the peace process, I believe there are even suggestions that he should be nominated for a Nobel peace prize. My President, please ignore the haters, even Obama with all his charm and all the good he did for this world was still hated.
    Long live the Great leader and God Bless Zambia

    • @Bozo the man does not care which is a shock because coming from Chawama you would think he understands the challenges of the common man

  5. Even if am from Eastern I don’t like this chap Edger changu lungwe he doesn’t develop Eastern province he is so scared of Bembaz

  6. Mr president, what has happened to the universities started by president Sata in Muchinga province? Last visit you made you passed through to check on them, are you passing through again to simply check on them before coming to the camera and tell people in Muchinga how much you want to see more stalled projects spared for more promises in 2021 elections? People are tired of fake promises that come with good allowance in your pocket while people are going without food. Meanwhile CHITOTELA MUST GO.

  7. Always in Muchinga and always on the move. Nothing in the ‘in’ and ‘out’ trays at the office? Nothing to address the nation on, and answer a few proper questions?

  8. Have observed through comments especially on ECL, those that genuinely love ECL, those that hate ECL and those that want to be objective. My 3 ‘persons’, I have something you can think about: only PF and MMD under Late Mwanawasa have categorically through their own party policies and actions attempted for Zambia to get more benefits from the mines. UPND has not stated whether Zambia was getting a fair share from the mines or not and if not what actual measures it has in place.
    Can I say then that given the silence by UPND, morally then a Zambia under UPND would be a deservice to the nation because we will be ruled by Corporations?
