  1. Victor Mudende another cog in the PF Corrupt Criminal Enterprise of a Government.
    You destroyed what should be the Most Prosperous Business Organisation in the Country .
    History will not remember you Shetanis with kindness.

  2. Mapani, just as Mundende leaves office, so will you in the next Government. Just so you know.
    Accountant president hh just like other accountants are very negative to huge investments like those that are under Zesco. I don’t know the relationship that’s between you and bush economist hh.
    Knowledge is power, the more you know the better. Good luck! If it doesn’t rain properly, zesco underproduces and Zambians burn the bush for charcoal.
    The task ahead of you surpasses text book knowledge. The more you know.
    Something has to rain; if not rain, it gonna be in.sults.

  3. Fred Mmembe has touched a raw nerve on one of local radio stations by criticizing these seemingly regionally -inclined appointments in key positions by HH. Just check the surnames of those who are being fired and those of their replacements. Although the cultists are celebrating these happenings, it’s beginning to cause concern among sober -minded Zambians from all parts of the country.

  8. The problem with this profile of Victor B. Mapani is that it doesnt say what he is currently doing…is it another promotion from within like Mudende? A company does not necessarily need an Engineer even an experienced CEO from a business management background take up that position.

  9. Let us be honesty Zambians. ECL was condemned for appointing people from Eastern, Northern and Luapula. The following are the most influential institutions in Zambia: Defence, Local government, Energy, National Assembly, Finance, Judiciary, Health, Energy. Check the people leading these ministries now both at ministrial and director level and tell me how many are from outside Southern, Western, North Western and Bantu Botatwe (Tonga, Ila and Lenje). HH shouldn’t do what he condemned the previous governments for. Whether they will do the job or not was never the basis of HH’s argument but the region one comes from. Hence if he is to provide honest and leadership full of integrity he shouldn’t have gone this path.

  10. The terrorist has struck again, 101 days in office another casualty from Luwingu. Ba Bemba bazamuziba Yesu. If the so called Board acted independently they could have chosen one from among the many subordinates of Mundende, how did they identify Mapani as the right candidate without even an interview?
