5. Mr Mwila, how are we going to come out of this economic mess? Industry captains have already dismissed the plan laid out by your President. Do you think talking about UPND outs bread on the table of Zambians. just start being proactive please. This country is too rich to be poor Sir. Everything is now messed up by yourselves, give us a tangible and realistic plan.

6. This does not surprise us because their demigod leader is well known for having sold mines for peanuts during privatisation while getting kickbacks. This is the very reason he was called to police but due to his arrogance 2 people lost their lives.

9. Empty tins – all they can talk about is UPND this and HH that as if they were in opposition. Totally failed leadership. Meanwhile their leader is holed up somewhere in Eastern Province on a supposed holiday and is even failing to comment on the cold blooded murder of two citizens. And this from the same guy that was quick to issue condolences for the death of a fish at CBU!! These guys really attach a low value to Zambian lives.

11. On spot, SG. Remember, hh is eating directly off the hands of the Oppenheimers and Anglo-the companies that came directly from Cecil Rhodes himself. Hh stood on a podium with an Oppenheimer on the CB and vowed to bring back Anglo during the 2016 campaigns. Hh and upnd have already auctioned the country.

12. The PF in the past 7 years has changed the mining policy more than 3 times….. this is not good for investment
    They have not been paying the mines their refunds.
    Government through ZRA owes the mines more than 500million USD through VAT refunds.
    This is money the mines have been asking Government to pay them…..
    On another front….. most people think KCM is doing fine but this is far from the truth….. for starters, government has suspended all taxes KCM used to pay…… this means it’s current tax liability is zero…. no any other mines operate without paying any form of taxes…… if the mining industry is so profitable why did government suspend all taxes on KCM when they took over?
    Shareholding can work either ways….. to good or bad….. for your information government through ZCCM IH has shares in most of the mines…… but if the economy is unstable and governments policy on these mines keep changing the mines will hold back their investment and the end result is poor performance of the mines
    Just a year ago government was incessant about moving from VAT to Sales Tax and the mines have been on record asking the government not to take that route….. some even threatened to pull out of Zambia….. Finance Minster Mwanakatwe was fired partly because of this
    Taxes on concentrates have been revised 3 times in the past 5 years
    This makes it hard for mines to plan….. tinkering with policy is always not a good thing…… mining is long term investment….. they need a certain level of consistency to thrive.
    If you don’t know about mining investment you better excuse yourself sir. Congo our next door neighbor despite it’s a political unstable Economy is now the number producer of copper in Africa. Don’t bring politics in affairs in mining. Investors are not politicians, take over all the mines if you want and you will see how the whole pyramid will come down falling like a house of cards

19. Ba Davies Chama you can be a minister in government but you don’t understand corporate business world the way they operate do you what to nationalise the mines then we need to fulfill what the arbitration court outcome was remember about lepgreen who bought zamtel what happened we lost at arbitor court so we are paying. And don’t diverge the topic about two inoccent shooting by state agents and being a secretary general of a part in government (PF) we need an explanation from you sir because we need normalcy and civility to be uphold.

21. There is nothing to boast about coz it will only benefit few individuals..

22. Being advised to be cautious and doing the right thing is not wrong from the UPND. Think of the consequences ahead for once. Would the PF rather like that Zambia end up paying huge legal costs.

26. PF worked and is Working against the interest of Miners and Suppliers on the Copperbelt…
    The KCM disaster is the sole responsibility of incompetent FPs who did not control anything and never monitored Vedanta or worse intentionally turned a blind eye. For Mopani it is exactly the same. How many copper mines declare profits when prices are at their highest? Only one Kansanshi Mining….! Where do the phantom profits go? Mwila is a liar who wants to hide their responsibilities and/or complicity but nobody is fooled. The looting, incompetence and lying have gone on long enough.

31. Miners and suppliers associations have already said that this has been the worst year ever for their sector. Is it UPND who is ruling? PF has already taken us to the bottom of the pit.

32. Mr Mwila get the facts before issuing a statement.
    There is nothing happening at MCM to boast about not to talk of KCM,more than a year since liquidation process started and we have not been told how much mil ingo lungu is making,how much he has paid the owed debts and here you are hallucinating.
    Please stop puting the lives of Zambians on a chopping board.Be serious at least for once than mocking us.

33. Upnd should stop frustrating peoples works

34. Mr Mwila has now become a champion for the miners? hen he was MUZ at he did nothing to help get credible investors. Busy scheming on how to get rid of branch officials so that no one would challenge him in the leadership election. MUZ had an opportunity to influence policies then but alas we had people like him. Mr Mwila is saying “We want investors that will guarantee jobs and businesses for our people and we would like to encourage Zambians to take a keen interest in the investment opportunities in the mining sector via ZCCM-IH.” He seems to have forgotten that most if not all investors at the time privatisation started were guaranteeing jobs but a year later they started putting mining employees on redundancies. Government was powerless to stop the redundancies. To be honest…

35. What an unfortunate misfortune to be handed such a poor flatfaced (PF) party to govern a beautiful country. Quite a curse actually.

    • Muzala Shinka very True.
      PF and UPND need to page for what they did to the families of deceased.
      We need a neutral party to give power come 2021. UPND and PF have had their days, otherwise violence will never end even under UPND. They both need to pack their bags… best if the deregister their parties. Too many lives have been lost under the loggerheads of PF and UPND. Non deserve to govern this country.

36. Which UPND is working against the move taken by government just go ahead we are all supporting it
