On the issue of uplifting women,is it that there are no women in the ministry of Education in Muchinga province to only give all the senior positions to Men? for example,PEO and Deputy are men,and all the District Education Officers are men.Men and women should have equal representation in decision making positions.PF should be interested in what is happening on the ground and should not pretend they are not aware of what is on the ground.Make a follow up in Muchinga,the presidents province and tell us why only men are considered.

I am so sorry for the president. He is denying reality. The writing is on the walls. He has not delivered on his promises. What proof does he want? Silishebo, yes, the list is much longer than you have put. Shame!!

Sata is the CEO of a very big entity zambia and its almost impossible to know the details on the ground.So the people who are making him a failure are those he has appointed in various positions.For example,Sata doesn’t inspect potholes on roads,there’s a minister for that and these are the guys who are lying to the president that things are ok on the ground.Ba President,forget the reports from these fake ministers and PS’s and get true information from the ground.You will be shocked to note that things are bad even just near you there in kalingalinga.Your ministers and PS’s have already made you a failure,start sacking some of them before its too late

So you listen HEMCS ka! I passed through Luapula a few months ago & paid a courtesy call on the Provincial Minister and his Permanent Secretary. The ‘boy and girl’ I found in these offices left my heart bleeding. Very childish and pompous. Drunken and skitish behaviour which, when I asked, was their norm and frowned upon by most people. Where have you taken the duo? Madam Miyoba, plz, go and restore people’s confidence & prove to the people in Luaspula that ladies a re good leaders.

MR. PRESIDENT, H.E. SATA, KINDLY TAKE A LEAF FROM THE LATE H.E. FTJ, MHSRIEP. HE NEVER REACTED TO SUCH CRITICISM.
FTJ CONSOLIDATED OUR DEMOCRACY IN THIS WAY. PEOPLE, INCLUDING THE POST, WOULD CRITICIZE HIM FOR ONE YEAR WITHOUT HIM REACTING.
HE WOULD THEN ONLY MAKE A ONE SENTENCE REACTION WITH A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!! FTJ WAS A TRUE DEMOCRAT.
GOOD TRAITS NEED TO BE NURTURED.

BaTumfweko, even if you do not publish my comments since you are Pro-PF, I will still speak up because I do not belong to ant party. Let the President leave the clergy alone, you do not mess with the church which has the God-given mandate to make sure that common people’s needs are met. When the clergy talk, it is not that they want to become like Mumba (MMD) but most of them talk out of concern for people both the church and government should serve. Learn to listen to all but decipher what to take…kwasila
