Let’s just call this Ministry, the Ministry Without Portfolio so that we are not cheating each other. They have no real work.
Please give hope and guidance to pupils you are sending home during the Covid-19 epidemic period, and not just fear and hopelessness. Encouraging them to remain physically fit during this period will do them good than just sending them home with zero information.
The most hypocritical minister and her wasteful ministry ….talking to pupils what is lacking in her President and cabinet!
Excellent ba minister.you are a true mother of the nation. We pray that God continues blessing you with the wisdom and courage to guide us. Kz

Young man Spaka did I miss something? Have the courts of Law found that a pf member was responsible for the alleged gassing of the public? Please point me to that judgement so I can read it also and pass it to our president.

according to police reports, PF members have been arrested in connection with the gassings , after the arrests gassings have stoped
Spaka point me to records showing that those arrested were pf members. Also show me evidence of the charges brought against such persons including their full names and area of habitual residence because all this information is provided to public in such circumstances. I await your comprehensive response. Kz
