Unit Garments is one of the largest garment manufacturing companies in the country as it is known for a wide range of industrial and protective clothing including work suits, work wear, overalls, hospital wear among others.
I am spooked. Is this not the role for ministers? The whole president commissioning a ka 10 million plant sure? Nadabwa.
MPs shall mabd from Minister of Financethe total budget eaten by HH’s trips locally and overseas.
These are both private companies. For HH to go there it simply means that he has been invited. It’s that simple. I do not know why you seem to dislike this.
What are these working visits that our Presidents love going on? Lungu was always on a working visit to Kitwe, Chipata now its HH. We dont see any changes on the copperbelt after these sleepwalking visits
Off to have a very expensive romantic dinner with my beautiful Regina at an unknown location in Lusaka. Don’t jealous me.
As for hh, fuseke
Ba Pompi don’t b spooked the president hs no future plan(s) for this nation. Now he’s jst a tourist, he can’t address the nation on real issues affecting the nation since he took power. He hs made wrong moves ad there pressing on the poor Zambians mostly. All election messages were lies ad nothing hs worked. So ku bafye pa tour. Awee very disappointing.
Please note that if you don’t spoil your woman for valentines, then someone is spoiling her and hammering her. You have been warned.
Actually Kaizar Zulu just fantasizes. Regina doe not even exist. Regina was a young Zimbabwean from Mandevu who was admiring. But suddenly left Kaiza Zulu to enter into a polygamy life with an 60 year old polygamist.
Is he going to see the poverty he left on the copperbelt through the thefts beboomde and letter by PF . Let them enjoy the money they gained to the sufferings of the people on the Copperbelt. Very soon our party UNIP shall bounce back to power like what happened in Malawi. To Seve us from this monsters.
Bonjour Kaizar Zulu comment vas-tu avec la fausseRegina
Mr Matambo said the President will open a manufacturing company. Is it the reporter or is it Matambo who has made the mistake? Mr Hichilema is coming to commission the opening or officiate the opening. It’s not his company.
