  1. I am glad that land in the South is finally being offered to everyone unlike NAMWALA where one MONEY LAUNDERER owns over 1,000 hectares of land. Let’s develop Zambia and not entrust it in people with questionable backgrounds who have siphoned money outside and when they die the Zambian money shall die as well but they are not aware of it!
