  1. Mr President! Thank you. Knowledge is the new Global Currency.

    Please continue on this Knowledge Song, time after time. It’s what will lift Zambia. The world is paying millions of dollars to people who have the knowledge and creative minds. The difference between western nations and poor nations comes down to Knowledge. Western nations export knowledge and make $ billions of dollars out of it. Also, without forgetting that – it requires tapping into the Imagination which encircles the universe and is more powerful than knowledge. And without imaginations there will never be knowledge.

    The Good Book says: Without Knowledge My People Will Perish.

  2.

Some people not been truthful is in their DNA..
