Vice President Mutale Nalumango has urged Zambians to honor the memory of the late President Michael Sata with dignity and respect. She described the late President as a hardworking man who was committed to his political cause and should be remembered as a leader who won the hearts of many through his commitment to development.
Regarding security arrangements for the 9th-anniversary celebration of late President Sata, Mrs. Nalumango assured the assembly that the event has been consistently marked with lawful and respectful observance. She affirmed that the Zambian police would provide the necessary security measures for the commemoration, reflecting the government’s commitment to honoring the memory of the late President in a fitting manner.
This message of reverence for the late President came during a parliamentary session where Vice President Nalumango also addressed other important matters.
She disclosed that the Zambian government is currently in the process of evaluating a proposal put forth by the Zambia National Service (ZNS) to establish a smelter in Kabompo District. Mrs. Nalumango shared this information in response to a question raised by Member of Parliament for Lunte, Mutotwe Kafwaya. The inquiry sought to gain clarity on ZNS’s intentions to construct a smelter valued at 15 billion United States Dollars in Kabompo.
The Vice President explained that ZNS has taken the necessary steps to secure licenses and is actively engaging with potential investors to gather the required expertise and resources for the project. The proposed smelter is expected to have a significant impact on the local economy, provided that it is deemed feasible and beneficial by the government.
During the session, Mrs. Nalumango also touched upon the agricultural sector, expressing the government’s commitment to addressing challenges faced in previous farming seasons. She emphasized the importance of ensuring timely delivery of agricultural inputs to farmers and informed the assembly that the distribution process has already commenced across various regions of the country. Designated depots are currently receiving and distributing these essential agricultural resources.
F00Iish VP do not talk about my father. You are not worthy commenting about him! You insulted him while he was alive and now you want to act like you care. Fuseke!!
In Zambia when you die you become an angel.
Your boss will give a speech at your graveside saying you were just about to be promoted. Your neighbor who accused you of going after his wife will say “you were so kind to his wife”
All this perhaps because we are a superstitious nation
DO YOU EVEN KNOW YOUR FATHER
Rest in peace Chimbwi No Plan as fondly referred to by HE Sampo Man
with Dignity and Respect? Not at present when the party he left isnt being respected by both its own members and the ruling party the latter who are busy trying to destroy it by all means
Celebrate the death of a tribalist thief who found Zambia almost debt-free, and having $3 billion in reserves, $800 million in road development funds, ate all that money, and then borrowed and ate another $31 billion with his nephew Edgar Chagwa-Agwa Chakolwa Lungu..??? We should revile the memory of Michael Satan, who was a disaster for the development of Zambia
You tell them
we cant live in a dream world forever
A spade can only be a spade
So you are saying he “ate” 36 billion in 2 years of office? Maybe in a dream of yours that happened
I saw a video on ZO where ECL is announcing his return to active politics. The likes of Lubinda and a few Lungu fanatics were seen celebrating. Only bigots can celebrate when Lungu announces that he is back into active politics. Bigotry at its best!
He will lose his party a million votes. If I were HH I would be celebrating because what has Lungu to offer? A first lady who will steal more from our tax for more blocks of flats? Daughters who will be fencing off state forests? Sons who will be buying and selling cars from stolen loot. I would be scared of Mundubile because he has no scandals but Lungu? Its a walk over.
He is coming back to politics to counter Miles Sampa. The problem for them is that Lungu will be barred by the courts and Sampa cannot win. This is the worst outcome for them, and the best for the country
Nothing to celebrate here. Sata’s PF found Zed with 6% annual economic growth,$3bn reserves ,bumper harvests etc and left us poorer,destitute and defaulting on debts.
Thank you
@Brayschopet: Those are your people. That is exactly what they did, and would have done even more of, if the election of HH had not interrupted their thievery. Zambia had practically no debt, thanks to the hard and honest work of President Levi Mwanawassa and his finance minister Ng’andu Magande, who worked hard to retire the debt accumulated under Kaunda and Chipuba. Then the thieves came into power by tricking the Lozi in voting for them. They immediately went on a looting spree and borrowed $31 billion in 10 years, at a rate of of $3.1 billion a year, or $281 a month, or more than $9.38 million a day, 0r $390, 067 every hour, or $6, 511 every minute, or $109 every second; and all of it has been stolen.
