    • You will hear that IMF was in town at that particular day hence he is running away..

  1. Meaningless ‘working visit’. I am sure a District Commissioner can ‘flag off’ the food distribution. Where are all the other officials? ECL is in every town commisssioning this, opening that, checking ‘developmental projects’ etc. Honestly, these are normal day to day work in progress for ‘lower’ officials. I don’t think this populist ‘strategy’ will work in Zambia’s current scheme of things. Please sit down and attend to serious national issues and adress the populace as to your plans, if any. Or at least answer questions on the kwacha value, health service accessibility, the state of education, the mines, agricultural policy, roads and how you are tackling political violence (especially from your own thugs)

  2. It is like the man needed orientation or a brief on his duties, he appears totally lost,i wonder if PF members watching this circus are supporting it.
    Sit in the office Mr President, who can honestly be inspired by a leader who has no time for the actual work,busy travelling at huge state expense even if it is local travel when the nation is broke?

    • You ate foolish and ignorant. You told you the presidents duties are in the office? Stop offloading your brainless thing on this platform.

  3. He has nothing to do in his office his hands and behind is itching for a plane ride somewhere…IMF news does not matter to him he would rather act like a Junior minister. There are no by-election for the foooool to dance on stage like a moron he is!!

  4. We are not different from the days of moses…. Our leaders are always critisised for everything they do. Imagine if they are to to rule by following your comments? He stays at statehouse, its a problem, he goes out side the country – he has no time for his people and eating text payers money. He visit his electorates, it is a problem. Indeed MAN HAS INDEED BECOME MAN.

  5. Its true this is Chipatepate administration with humble and able leadership in a christian and highly corrupt environment

  6. You ate foolish and ignorant. You told you the presidents duties are in the office? Stop offloading your brainless thing on this platform.

  7. It is very much important to respect elders. The president is an elder. It doesn’t matter whether you agree witn him or not. I personally don’t see any thing wrong with the president visiting the great people of a lovely nation zambia.
