Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki has arrived in the country for a two day tripartite high level North-South Corridor conference.
Mr. Kibaki touched down at the Lusaka International Airport around 16:40 hours aboard a presidential jet.
He was met by President Rupiah Banda, cabinet ministers, senior government officials and Kenyan nationals living in Zambia.
The Kenyan President was then treated to a variety of Zambian cultural performances before being driven to Intercontinental Hotel were he will be lodging.
Over three hundred delegates have so far confirmed their participation in the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA)- Eastern African Community (EAC)and Southern African Development Community (SADC) tripartite conference.
South African President Kgalame Motlanthe and Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni are also expected to attend the meeting which will start tomorrow at the Mulungushi International Conference Center in Lusaka.

I hope he has come with his wife, just in case the media acuse him of having a second wife in Zambia!
Do we have a young President in Africa?
Good evening Princess and Matworld.
At least RB is getting visited for a change, instead of him making another trip. Matworld, Mswati of Swaziland and Kabila of DRC are both young rulers.
Look at how old they look. Do you think these guys can honestly bring fresh ideas????
Number 4 PY I will repeat what I wrote on a similar thread ;
Every generation comes with a new wind. For as long as the top seats in the government are reserved for the old men, there will be no changes in government that will make Zambia withstand the present economic pressures. The same applies to the whole os Africa.
Number 2 Matworld greeting to you my young and talented fellow Zambian.
I know you also carry the new wind of change that Zambia and Africa as a whole requires. Please also feel answered by my statement at number 5.
Cheers
Pano paliba utuma advert ati ‘arab singles’ nomba nga nayako balefwaya ka credit card. Elyo ine nshakwata ifyo, ndefwaya kofye akamu arab nangu aku mu chinese ngufwa ati , Tulasunga mwebantu…
Nanaka na ma sisters, niba High Maintenance Mwe.
Buffoons in common,all time plonkers,look at them,b…dy hell!
Matworld reformed munthu muli shani? The new president of Madagascar is very young.34 years only,he is the youngest.
A Jesuit priest and former university of Zambia lecturer has called upon the Zambian government to make homosexuality legal.
Professor Michael Kelly was quoted by Lusaka’s QFM radio Sunday morning saying that the government should also recognise same-sex marriages.
Now who is going to marry us if they implement such acts,awe mwe chalashupa
that professor should be castrated!!! This is the begining of the worshiping of “baal”.
Zambia should maintain a biblical stance not be swayed by what is happening elsewhere.
hey guys, stop complaining about old presidents, we want the young man Sata to rule LOL!
Bane in Europe tamulalala.. i love you all guys…It’s nice that we are hosting this meeting, hopefully, it will have fruitful results…i miss those days of seeing all those important leaders in Africa converge in Zambia.
Now Belinda, every thread at LT has a theme and we try to blog within that theme. Sometimes we move away from the topic (usually after the topic has been exausted). Now iwe you come at Numbala 10 and start a topic of fimo fimo away from the one LT has posted. Yes you have the right to free your mind but I am wondering nomba. Bushe iwe are you part and parcel of this fimo fimo industry? Do you think Zambia really needs to legalize homosexuality so as to defeat the present economic crunch?
Mudala wandi you will still find someone to marry you if you move within the straight circles. Not the whole world is homosexual.
#11 Belinda. Well anything can come out of priests. Are they not gays among them already? It is terrible pantu mukomfwa napa zed ama priests will start advocating to be carrying out wedding ceremonies for gays. Wait.
Belinda my sista, I am also worried at those sentiments and for this reason i have started looking across the borders, lol…Nomba sure we should start competing with fellow men for boyfriends aini?
stripper my sista,imagine sure,but I just hope our zambians men wont tolerate such acts,I need to go and get married quickly before these men grab my boyfriend,its so disgusting.
Sista stripper imagine sure?I need to go to zambia and getmarried quickly before they inact this law,lol
# Ba jam@co sorry brother,its just cause I was a bit worried
#18 I was also getting worried. Then all is fine nomba. Have a nice evening.
#14. Muli shani ba stripper? Tulala here (Europe) except that we try to work hard so that you appreciate the Zambians in the diaspora are not suffering, we don want that sigma to haunt us.
About your comment on #16, mwisakama about competition for boyfriends. There are some who only beleive in heterosexual marriages. As you cast your eyes abroad, do not cast them beyond the horizon and by pass us. We will be waiting to present you the best catch!
I beg your pardon, “Tulalala”. language spelling creeping in. I hope I don’t forget the language completely.
Goodnight bloggers
#2 Matworld – Tanzania’s president Kikwete is also relatively young.
Ba Observe, you sound very good and give some of us a ray of hope…Ifintu nafishupa..ama brothers yonse kuno have gone African American-wise…so we have been hoping about going back home to hook -up..now hearing that men are fighting to be kissing each other…awe tesana.. Nway, we will keep in touch!
2 President Joseph Kabila is young. He assumed Presidential power of the Emocratic Republic of Congo at about 29 years old. Unfortunately or fotunately, he succeeded his late father when the time he came to power as there was no election to place him as President then. However, he has since done well and won last democratic elections I think by a nice margin.
On ‘South African President Kgalame Motlanthe and Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni are also expected to attend the meeting which will start tomorrow at the Mulungushi International Conference Center in Lusaka’, I am glad that the South African caretaker President has not been fighting his political opponents to strengthen his hold on the Presidency hoping to get a second term of office..
Look at the big babies greeting each other,what a sight.
25 continued.
It is impressive that South African President K. Motlante will not be contesting this month’s presidential elections if I am correct. How I hope President RB Banda could take a leaf from his South African counterpart by also not recontesting the Zambian Presidency in upcoming 2011 tripartite elections especially that he will be about 76 years old – 20 years way past the 55 year old retiring age for the Zambia Civil Service.
Also, could our GRZ look into pushing the retirement age of Civil Servants to 65 years old looking at how our old men in the MMD GRZ have clinged to their political jobs especially those of being appointed. Otherwise, I hope this Lusaka meeting will be a serious success.
By the way, what has been the biggest outcome of the INDABA by President RB Banda? I have failed to get any news on its resolutions or recommendations and who attended it.
About time RB became the host of Internatinal conferences… Too much gallivanting lately!!..
Oooops! meant International….
#30, Thanks for the correction
#22, Ba Belinda muli basuma. Congrats. Iam talking from a woman’s point of view, akuti Jealous down .
Can the young people rule , RB , Kibaki . Bob , King C , please leave the stage ….. for the young energetic ,charismatic and visionary…
Kibaki is one scary-looking fella.
Solace in their kind . These too are contemporaries ….. what can be gained other than reminiscent , reminding each other of past glory and how they have duped the young. Shame is your measure you old tendons , ligaments and bones .
Ba # 34, Mwamuna nimutumba (contents of the pocket) Nomba ngamwawama pamenso tukalya inshi. So Kibaki i just fine. Women just close their eyes until they get used.
# 36 It will be desirable , to explain in nyanja or silozi and better of English for all to under stand…. Siluyana is royal
Kwena mwebanakashi mwalishipa, i can just imagine kiss kibaki or RB. it takes a lot of courage even for the love of money!
Based on age , political know how and Education:Aka red Na aka black:
1. HH Economist Mwa na Unza

# 37 and 38, you have to be women to understand what i am talking about here. A handsome man with money..is total problems, to many women around. A man with a monkey face and money is most desirable to me because i will have less women to fight off..you get my point, lol. Thats how come the saying that a man is his pocket and not looks…we can’t eat looks haaaaaaa! So ba Kibaki is just like Benny Mwila, in terms of looks but had the best women because of his overflowing pockets>
#40 And when the rat mysteriously accuse you of perforating , the protect of money and your hubby dies of stroke as it was with LPM … what are the options….
sorry stiriper , I might As well continue watching an old movie of Courage and love about Van damme in Hell ……
Easy wiseman- reborn, go out and find another one lol
#39, Tekushipa iyo…. where real love matters, all those flaws you are mentioning do not matter, I think its as the saying goes ‘one man’s meat is one man’s poison’ what their couples see is sunshine in their eyes/life and happines.No flaws at all.. that is what really love means..
Imwe hav u eves seen mrs kibaki? Is thandi beautiful? Africa has the ugliest president wade of senegal, 4mer ghana kufor, nigeria. I think their wives cover the top n hammer the base. Look at these 2 oldies wat change can they bring? These r the pipo that r technologically challanged. If u say a laptop he will think otherwise….vulgar. Lol
Input, Wansekesha sana. Ati ukushipa? Yaba! Fi love fyalishupa mani. Those two should be tiling the land at some rural farms! Just look at them. Ati Ba President! The choices we make for ourselves, awe te sana! Ayt a distance you wouldnt tell if Kibaki is looking at you or has his back to you! Awisi Temwani also….Yaba!
#47,Ba Moze, someone saisd long ago before we werer born ‘ati’ ove is blind. I think the worst couple I can think of is Grace and Robert Mugabe. Mugabe is like a hippo face bane, even if one mans meat is ones man poison, ena Mugabe no umutima walibipisha.. All the same love talks/matters in such cases.
#40, should read someone said long ago before we were born ‘ati’ love is blind….. sorry for spell errors!….
#49, for #48 please.
#33,ba Mrs Thenjiwe Stevens thank you very much, you too my sister must be beautiful,cause I can tell from you compliments.They say real recognises realGod bless you,thanks.
Chi smile ukutinya.is this man so dark or limbi ni camera?
stop using bemba in this site greatkalu……you have to write to sata who can understand your laguage kaponya…..
These two chaps are just too urgly! They truly give credence to the notion that people are descended from monkeys. And they both hail from the rift valley where Zingernthropus’ remains were discovered. With ancient beings like these, how can we move forward?
