Chief Government Spokesperson Chushi Kasanda says Government is amused that those who plundered public resources through mismanagement are the loudest to accuse the UPND Administration of favouring foreigners in the management of the economy.
Ms. Kasanda who is also Information and Media Minister says contrary to the misguided accusations, the Government has placed Zambians as prime drivers and beneficiaries of the country’s resources.
She says this is evident in the increase in Constituency Development Fund (CDF) from one point six million Kwacha to 25.7 million Kwacha per Constituency.
Ms Kasanda noted that those accusing Government of favouring foreigners are recipients of the 25 point 7 million Kwacha in their Constituencies as Members of Parliament, money being used to complete projects they failed to do when they were in office.
The Minister said in a statement that money went into their pockets while the current Government is taking the money to the people to improve roads, schools, hospitals, and to pay bursaries and provide free education.
She said the Government is realigning the mining and other natural resources that the country is endowed with to generate more resources for the benefit of the people of Zambia.
The Chief Government Spokesperson pointed out that it is the basic function of Government to serve the people and not selfish individual interests.
Ms. Kasanda has since advised Mporokoso Member of Parliament Brian Mundubile to desist from uttering baseless statements.
She said the construction of the FTJ University saga confirms the extent of the loot of public resources that the country was subjected to during the Patriotic Front Government.
Ms. Kasanda said PF Acting Secretary General Nickson Chilangwa must not attempt to distance the PF Government from the matter as it is clear that money was disbursed for the construction of the university but nothing was done.
She pointed out that government will ensure all that was stolen is recovered and given back Zambians who are the owners of the resources.
Ms. Kasanda has also advised former Zambia’s Ambassador to Ethiopia Emmanuel Mwamba to stop misleading the public over his statements regarding AFRICOM.
This woman I enjoyed her before she was upnd but now she is losing her mind. No pf member has been convicted of plundering so who is she talking about. Some of you women act like this when you are not been plundered in the bedroom. Can I get an amen please!
Correct madam
Kaizer Zulu,just STFU & pay the businessman you owe $13,000 American money! You looted & stole under PF so don’t think you are clean… pay back
kano nga nibena ….
They were in government for ten years and
What did they do?UPND critics should wait
Till 2026 before they say anything.You had
Your time now it’s Bally’s time.
But you haven’t convicted them of anything! You just yap accusations. Anyone can do that. You have the machinery to prove them guilty but you are failing. When are you gonna bring the plunderers to justice? Otherwise we will accuse you of covering up because you want to use their same tools.
Madam the cost of living is high for us….but imwe you are enjoying.
Ms. Kasanda has since advised Mporokoso Member of Parliament Brian Mundubile to desist from uttering baseless statements. PLEASE DON’T SHUT UP PEOPLE. IF YOU ARE DOING WELL WE SHALL ACKNOWLEDGE. WHATEVER MUNDUBILE SAYS WILL BE MEANINGLESS IF YOUR GOVERNMENT IS DELIVERING. THERE ARE SERIOUS POLICY MATTERS THAT NEED YOUR ATTENTION NOT WHAT MUNDUBILE IS SAYING.
Stup!d KZ, the lady never even mentioned PF, but you are so bl00dy guilty that you have already assumed that she did. Why don’t you go on paying the $13,000 back that you stole – before you finally end up in Lusaka Central Prison. Next to the wheelbarrow man!
She can just enroll at UNZA like Ba Ester.
I think between Chushi and Mundubile the latter makes a lot of sense. Empowerment doesn’t come from shoddy fertilizer deals
Show me the court order stating that I owe that bab00n the money you allege. This is why your wives get plundered by other men. You lack sense
You think I can fail to pay a mere 13000 usd? Have some sense. I don’t pay people money that is not owed to them.
Whilst Nickson Chilangwa is faling to account for the FTJ University Funds, Edify Hamukale and the same minister of Finance Completed building the Kazungula Bridge, Livingstone Bus stop and Mazabuka Trunpike road amongst many. and Japehn Mwakalombe managed to put up fly over bridges to decongest cars in lusaka with significant progress on KK airport and many township roads including in Chongwe. Bowman Lusambo over the same time managed to steal almost 30% of the Budgeted funds for Lusaka Province. Under the same president EC Lungu the same chilangwa revamped kawambwa tea but failed on the FTJ university . Nkandu Luo must explain properly since she was minister of higher education. Now we hear Mundublie and Mwamba are leading a delegation to visit Chief Chitimukulu to complain about…
Its time UPND stopped politicking and start working. Why is UPND so afraid of finished PF. Guys 5 years is a short period of time. You will regret. As of now you have nothing to show apart from very good promises. Those promises will become lies if they are not fulfilled.
Zulu doesn’t even earn £ living in the UK. This useless nlogger PRETENDS to be KZ. No one in their right mind would pretend to be thst ignorant thug.
Hence this farce must be in a mental institution in thr UK with too much time on his unemployed hands.
It is more convenient for you to issue personal attacks and accuse me of not being me, rather than respond to my valid points and checks against the failing dawn upnd govt..fuseke
$13,000 WHEN I DOUBT HE CAN PAY 13,000 ZMW
@14 the fake KZ; your first comment: “This woman I enjoyed her before she was upnd.” You have useful points, juvenile cl*wn?? Fuseke yourself.
But to reach the infrastructure PF level, UPND will not much even giving the 30 years. The best they can do is forget about infrastructure. Don’t spend the economy will be OK but shabby roads …..the west might not give us hand outs in the next 10 years. They will busy building Ukraine…at least IMF has promised 1million usd
She takes 10 days to respond …really laughable…someone must have written some notes on how to respond and she has been studying the notes. HH7 you can not appoint a G12 school leaver as your Chief Govt Spokeswoman, you can not trust this woman to go on TV interview to respond to current affairs questions.
Tarino my colleagues at LT state that you are in the North of England. We are slowly catching up with you
Q: How do you kill a troll?
A: Take away its internet access!
Tarino can you dispute it ?
Meanwhile her and her husband have been identified as people of interest by the press for corrupt practices concerning fertilizer imports. A debt may get moldy but it never decays say the Nigérians. A time will come when chickens will come home to roost.
