  2. Chief Luchembe remarked that President Edgar Lungu deserves to continue as the Head of State because of the many developmental projects and empowerment programs that have been implemented under his leadership. Delivering developmental projects is a good song. ECL is earning more votes. Creating an enabling environment for foreign capitalists contradicts the Zambia we want.

  3. Why do our chiefs wear graduation gowns, colonial uniforms and pageant costumes? What was the original regalia? Anyway, perhaps this is also why the endorsements are so ludicrous too. Over bikes! Maweee

  4.

Soon villagers will be part of the Zambian economy. ECL has earned votes in this area.

    Ignorant Headman ..surely if Lungu loses the projects will still continue its not like Lazy Lungu gets money from his pocket and those empowerment programmes are unbudgeted misappropriated funds meant for frontline services being abused with no sign of being paid back.

  6. “Chief remarked that President Edgar Lungu deserves to continue as….because of the many developmental projects and empowerment programs that have been implemented under his leadership.”

  7. Over a Bike…. No wonder these chiefs sold their brothers and sisters into slavery in exchange for guns , mirrors , sugar ,biscuits and sweets…

  8. A bicycle turning a Chiefs head. What sort of Chief endorses a Political Candidate sure??? Some Chiefs are too cheap and a disgrace to their own subjects. Are Chiefs not supposed to be non-partisan due to the fact that they represent all peoples irrespective of their political affiliation???

  9. Dull Chief thinks Lungu has a sack of his own money which he uses to pay for all those programs …really laughable…when he is voted out he takes the money with him forgetting that all those projects mean huge debt for his subjects

  10. One day in future Chishimba Kambwili will be Chief Magodi and we’ll expect him to be a great leader
