  1. We needed a few photos to show us the so called ” state of the art” bcoz in Zambia, even what is just ordinary is either ” state of the art” or ” ultra modern” to justify theft as simple ordinary structures are built at exorbitant prices. So far the picture here shows something substandard!!

  2. Well done. A working government facilitating infrastructure development. Only f00lish upnd diasporans like tarino won’t have anything positive to say because ths was not done under the leadership of his fellow Tonga. Very tribal skank who deserves to be shot in the head. Eff off!!!!!

  4. Well done. Now this is good investment. Anything going to advancing health, education and food security has my thumbs up. Double-thumbs up actually.

  5. And how do you teach 700 students.
    You don’t need such theaters in this day and age unless its to be used for shows

  6. At least they didn’t use the lease money from east park for salaries and allowances unlike government misusing toll money for salaries.
