The opposition Patriotic Front has demanded that the Minister of Foreign Affairs should be rendering a report in Parliament every time President Hakainde Hichilema undertakes an international trip.
Speaking when he and other PF MPs addressed the media today, Hon Brian Mundubile said the report should outline the possible benefits of the trips the Head of State undertakes.
Leader of the opposition in Parliament added that the Minsiter should also disclose the size of the entourage the President goes with.
“And further, we would also love to know the size of the entourage that the President goes with and who exactly was in his entourage. I want to tell you that just two days ago I received a call from a colleague who was concerned,” he said.
“He happened to be on the plane with the First Lady. And his concern was the size of the entourage and yet the new dawn government had informed us that the President travels with a lean team. That may not be true.”
Hon Mundubile said Zambians need to evaluate so that maybe the money spent on trips can be added to the price of maize so that it moves from K160 to K250 per bag.
“Ours is to provide checks and balances. If we think the President is spending so much on Presidential trips that may not be exactly beneficial to this country we will raise the red flag, like we are doing now. so that we can evaluate if the money can be used to add on the maize price so that the price goes to K250 or it can be used for medical supplies,” he said.
Mundubile is now becoming stupid. Why didn’t he proper that when ECL hired the entire plane to the UN summit or the trips he undertook to Eswatini? He should not stretch the forgiveness rendered to his party further? We have not forgotten what we went thru!
When ecl travelled the same hh criticised him and called for the selling of the presidential jet. Today the same f00l hh is busy flying around every month and multiple times every week. Can we be told or given a break down of how much this is costing taxpayers and also the breakdown of the benefits zambia has received from these unnecessary trips
You my friend are an *****! Do you just post for the sake of posting something? Your former leader brought no development to the country only putting us in debt again and at a higher level than any other government.
Enjoy your stolen money MR KEYBOARD WARRIOR. We’ll be coming for you soon. Not even the GAY supporting UK where you’re hiding will protect you.
It’s cunts like you that hinder progress
If you fly more you just increase your chances of dying in a plane crash. Chilekeni
Look at this Mundubile , these people are hypocrites I mean under Pay Forward (PF) of Lazy Lungu the Bombardier Jet was being used by Bonanza Malanji to fly to Ankara to collect money with Finlay ..the Chief Justice died in Cairo under suspicious circumstances just close to General Elections she flew there with a Presidential during the pandemic. They are lucky UPND is full of sleepy chaps
I think the government must set out a report , WHICH THEY SHOULD HAVE
1. OF ALL THE TRIPS ECL DID IN HIS TIME AND THE COST OF EACH TRIP AND WHERE
2. OF ALL THE TRIPS THAT HH HAS UNDERTAKEN AND THE COST OF EACH TRIP AND WHERE.
3. PLACE ALL THE ABOVE INFORMATION IN EVERY SOCIAL MEDIE PLATFORM, NEWSPAPERS, PROVINCES, TOWNS, BILL BOARDS ETC.
This will SHUT THE OPPOSITION FOR GOOD ON THIS TOPIC.
THE OPPOSITION WILL NEVER SHUT UP
THEY STILL HURTING AND THINK THEIR TIME IS COMING AGAIN
LITTLE DO THEY REALISE IN DEATH THERE IS NO COMEBACK
ONLY YOUR JESUS SUPPOSIDLY ACHIEVED THAT
That’s like a rapist asking his victim to talk about the rape……….
So this colleague of Mundubile who flew with the first lady knew all the people she was with? Was he part of the organisers of this trip? How about telling us what happened to the quarterly reports ECL used to demand from his ministers? Was this being done or was this being ignored?
PF… nearly a year without party president.. ARE YOU DISORGANISED???
That’s like a rapist asking his victim to talk about the raping ……….
There is no law that makes it mandatory the only thing is that when New Dawn came to office HH promised to fly commercial. with a lean team and to brief the nation upon his return from each trip…he only did that once. Further he promised to meet with his ministers quartley to ensure all was on course and that there would be no sacred cows…one PS cancelled concessions his Minister says its not true….please appoint a permanent Secretary to Cabinet,,,, and you have no amabassadors and high commissioners except for the son of old mushumfwa
When I say PF is DEEAD with leaders like CK, Mundubile, Mwamba, Nakachinda, Lubinda, Lvsambo it’s NOT a joke !
These guys have nothing to offer, kusabaila fye !!
No wonder JK & KMP gaang have ditched these guys – PF, they are now acknowledge the change in past 10 months by HH.
How can PF members surely tolerate these guys, who are just wasting tax payers money doing nothing…..just blowing air from their behinds.
CHINJA TEAM Ukolowe.
PF has lost the right forever to demand anything let alone be listened to. I don’t know when they will come to their senses,that PF is a dead party and dead people do not wake up and have a share again in anything under the sun.
Hypocrites did you submit any such report when Lungu Kamwendo mnjila was colluding with you to earn per diem?
Did you tell Lungu that cutting down on his entourage could
add to the price of maize so that it moves from K160 to K250 per bag? These politicians including HH are so wise when in opposition
And so dumb and greedy when in power.
How true is truth……criticised others, ………., but coming to like what l………….l said chocolates are bad,but l fail to resist them. Amazing……
Hypocrites ba PF did you demand the same standards when Edgar “VascoDa Gama” Lungu was busy globetrotting with the presidential jet earning vast per diem?
Double standards is what the useless opposition PF have in their DNA.
……….l said these chocolates are bad, but l fail to resist them.
We need an urgent investigation into how ” madam Amwapeeingi” went all the way to the U S, with her relatives from the village, Cooks, garden boys, Kachasu distillers, kalandanya turncoats, to go & bring rotten ancient fire tenders from the scrapyard & 1d.i0ts like Mvndubile & N@kat0mba, including narcissistic S3an T3mbo were silent & NEVER mentioned the waste of taxpayers cash, lelo ati fyo, fyo, fyo!
2026 nipatali ba Blue head gumu-gumu imwe’!!
