  1. Just call it a campaign not a working visit .It can also be call wasting tax payers money .

  2. Its too late. Campaign and campaign while stopping the rest but its still too late. The economy is gone and beyond redemption. Reckless borrowing

  3. Just call it a campaign not a working visit .It can also be called wasting tax payers money .Also check on schools especially in the poor areas which are running without water .

  4. This hand gesture of being humble does not match up with his actions .It does make me throw up .

  5. Ati challanger for Lungu? is this not the plane that people cried foul making it look like ECl had purchased his personal plane using Govt funds. This is what we call childish politics. If HH won elections then he would sell this Zambian airforce plane to finished poverty in Zambia, my word.

  6. It is good to campaign, but please make the campaign groung level for everyone. When you’re campaigning, also allow the opposition to do the same. This is what the opposition complains about.

  8. My hard working president. Continue pushing development sir. I cannot wait for the campaign to begin when we are on the ground together, it is a powerful team

  9. When his vice Bo Inonge was on the copperbelt last week there was No load shedding immediately she left copperbelt load shedding resumed,,, now he also is coming the people will again enjoy electricity for a short period he will will be around as sson as he goes back to Lusaka load shedding will be reintroduced ,,, Maiwe what do take us for
    Those officials who queue at Airports do not tell you Mr.Presidents what actually happens with lives of the ordinally people on the ground.

  10. What is doing there other than campaigning?

    The man is hopeless like Grasshopper.

    PF must go!

  11. Kang’ombe recently said “Ku copperbelt nakukaba”…! Kikikikiki. Today these scared little men from Lusaka are on the copper belt. Uluse…!

  12. Why does he keep going to CB every three months. Does he go to get his cut from the mines?

  13. Yamene iyi Copperbelt ba visitinga every day bamaona miseo? Why hasn’t Mufulira Ndola road been repaired? Welensky left a very healthy road there He also left a railway line between Ndola and Luanshya which no longer exists. If it’s a working visit ba Lungu you must work and reconstruct cb infrastructure

  14. ‘Working visit’, my foot! How many times has he purported to be on a working visit? Especially to the Copperbelt or northern areas? Working visits are strictly supposed to be national duty sojourns. But he will spend more time carrying out party functionaries and waving the PF symbol.

  15. Is he not having a minister on the copperbelt that can furnish him with a report of what is going on? Yes at times he can travel but not the way he is/has been doing.

  16. Is he not having a minister on the copperbelt that can furnish him with a report of what is going on? Yes at times he can travel but not the way he is/has been doing.
