29 Jamaco Zambian Airways suspended operations a few days ago. Advise another airline
Allow the Task Force to extend its investigations beyond Gen Kayumba and the now convict Singogo we see if Shikapwasha’s hands are clean. Defence forces are a hip corrupt thugs. If the heads are like that what of the minions?
The nation has not made any progress on the Freedom of Information Bill and the Independent Broadcasting Authority. The ministry to which Lt. Gen. Shikapwasha, who is also a man of the altar(priest)has been appointed to is very challenging. You may either cheat and keep your job with RB and lose your eternal life with God for the sin,or you may tell the very truth and get fired by RB. But posterity will judge you fairly. I don’t think Mulongoti had done better to even deserve a farewell party!
Lt. Gen. Shikapwasha, those gifts are called abuse of office nowadays…
Truth be told,Mulongoti needs to bid farewell to Zambia altogether. He has done nothing to distinguish himself from the current govt “leaders” who have failed Zambia. I await that headline, though it it’s really a fantasy of mine…:)
I wonder why he wasn’t fired…..
#52 and #53. Please reinforce what you are saying about this chap Mulongoti – our president Sata will support you fully. He needs to be fired completely. That is why Sata made sure Chiluba never appointed him. Alishibe ati nawena yuy nikabolala but alalandalanda sana. Tukamuzala when the right time comes. Nikabolala Mulongoti.
We need proof that the gift was bought from his personal money and not our money. Why didn’t he give that gift to an orphan or someone without any influence in govt? This is an indirect bribe. Shikapwasha MUST be prosecuted for accepting it. He should have said NO, I am only a servant of the people unless it is meant for my staff.
Farewell to my best minister of information after Vernon Mwanga.
