  1. Lungu, I thought we told you commissioning of toll gates in this climate of hardships for zambians is not a good idea ???

    • He will do anything to run away from his Chawama wife Ester…next week he will go to Chongwe for the weekend..

    • @Jayjay got a point, there is marriage. But who take care of the king’s bedroom wherever he goes around? He just spent a week apa pa Kafue and before the he was….
      2 weeks no romance for man as fit as he is and rans marathons twice a week?

    • The man is a playboy in the wrong job, what makes you think he is alone?…I mean Kabwe is just around the corner even ZRL Directors live in Lusaka and drive to work in Kabwe at their H/q. When was the last time any Zambian President spent 3 nites in Kabwe? We need a serious leaders to move this country forward…not this jokester

    • Atleast let him go and commission the textile dormant Mulungushi. At this stage, we should be busy commissioning industries and not match pasts while 70% of the townsmen are languishing in poverty and without jobs.

  2. that’s why paloto once said..when lunge hears that uku ku Botswana kuli chi machine chakufwenye ngombe, ba lungu kunine ndeke ati baye bamone
    I am pretty sure central province, kabwe in particular has minister of education fimo fimo, why not let them do that.
    it’s funny cuz for the years that I’ve been away from home to these ends, never have I seen a president do such a thing…commissioning of a project, esp these little things

  3. What a lazy piece of waste this man …surely you need to take 3 days to spend in Kabwe. This lazy bum will think of ways to spend weekend as he don’t anything from Monday to Thursday…last weekend he was in Chipata.

  4. @jayjay
    You are intelligently useless. we all know most of the trips the president makes are not necessary if anything they are demeaning the good office … but you dont have to sound like that. what you say is correct but your choice of words requires upgrade. often your critical posts are shrouded in anger and poor choice of words

    • Well I am not a a diplomat…if you want someone to comfort you then you are in the wrong place….there are people currently not paid for 3 months try to comfort them with “beautiful” words…about Lazy Lungu jogging in the morning.
      If you agree with me then just post something else instead of wanting to fight me…you must be that old childish man who always posts on LT looking for attention.

  5. Lungu’s “three day working visits” have become a euphemism for stealthy /disguised PF campaign tours.

  6. And kabwe residents will be ndwiiii, they won’t even ask him about mulungushi textiles he commissioned during the campaigns in 2016. Ati bakasaka kandalama is coming to checking on the kasaka ka offering (tollgate).

  7. Let the President work. If he stays in state house you the same people complain that he does not want to see things for himself on the ground. He’s just drinking whisky mu state house.When he moves ati kuyendayenda……mufuna chani kansi?

  8. Icho Jono meno meno or Jonathan Kamwendo, as usual going to dance with hungry people with no emotions at all for the poor…. this moronis the most useless president on the planet

  9. These toll gates are too much. Indeed the govt is broke. Motorists pay road tax. Road tolls are unfair and extortionate. You can’t have these things all over the place. And then there is borehole tax , withholding tax ,etc ,etc.
