    • Na Kavindele… stop being trivial.
      Have seen Bo Inonge this year? She needs rest, she looks more tired than Guy Scott.

  1. So Inonge is not considered vice President because her Party is trying to wrestle power from HH

  2. The only credible Vice President was Brigadier General Miyanda. Nevers, kalufyanya, is an ex convict. No need to recognise him.

  3. The Guy was overflowing with humour. His jokes made him coin two words in his government, chola-boy and zayelo. He was referring to himself and Given. Lusaka Central was his fertile backyard. I wonder why he was demeaned and nicknamed Muzungu o Pusa or Useful Coyote Idyotte. Times change.

  4. Brigadier General Godfrey Miyanda stands tall amongst them. His honesty caused him the chance to be President because he was FTJ’s natural successor. On one occasion, upon return from a trip, he handed the change from his imprest to his Secretary and asked her to retire it with the accountant. In a government of thieves, it sent shivers in the system as it was unheard of for anybody to return unused imprest. That’s the time they all began to scheme his downfall. He once lived near Chimbwete in Kamitondo, just like Lottie Mwale’s father
