If you are expecting me to comment on those pictures, am sure they are full of indecent poses. I will not. I am busy right now, got to prepare for these people who sign up for my courses… You don’t believe me. I am busy, am not like Edgar. No no, am hard-working Zambian.

We tired of seeing photos of the lazy bum Edgar…how can you waste space on the selfsame photo in different frames, lets have photos of ordinary fox.

When is the FRA going to invest in modern storage facilities (instead of these bags) such as Grain elevators composed of groups of grain silos…time to revolutionize storage and transportation of grain instead of these dated labour intense methods.

I didn’t know that the Luvales are also practicing the primitive culture of showing young women boobs. Looking like maki she dancers is making them ugly too. For Solwezi and NWP, vote PF out. Compare Solwezi to Muchinga here ****

I did not know that the Luvales do practice this primitive culture of showing young girl’s boobs. Their painting like maki she dancers is making then ugly. For Solwezi and NWP, check dot muvitv.com/solwezi-chingola-road-works-stall/

  Whats primitive about that? You are viewing issues from Euro-centric perceptive…you should study more about self.

What a country? Which tourist would be interested to go to a country looking the following? How can a nation which has never known war be looking like this?

Is Tasila Lungu allowed to work in Zambia on a visitor’s visa? Or is she in the country under the USA peace corps? Or are we establishing a “first daughters” office at state house too? Is she paying $50 for each month she is in Zambia or has she renounced US citizenship? Just asking. Dual citizenship is coming!

Dear LT Editor,

…ba LT..there was another equally important tradition ceremony in da east….I expected to see a picture or so instead of showing us Tasila….Tasila…daughter and father day in day out…..when u show one candidate…..its just morally right to show all the aspirants…please do not create an impression that you are pro…PF…before we loose confidence in you as well…most of us are on this site because we are meant to believe that you are politically neutral……
