In 2009, Kapoko was at the center of a jaw dropping ZMK 10 Billion scam at the Ministry of Health in which billions of kwacha were siphoned off.
In a dramatic turn of events, Kapoko was arrested after attempting to flee the nation after police were tipped off by a woman largely believed to have been his ATM or Assistant to the Madam (Girl-friend)
Before the scam was un-earthed, Kapoko led a lavish lifestyle with a hoard of cars that ranged from Hummers, Mercedes Benz to Fuso Fighter trucks all gathering dust in his garage.
Sweden subsquently suspended aid after the scam!
Henry Kapoko has been Acquitted of all corruption charges leveled against him.

Very disgusting development. It is great shame on the prosecution. In fact the prosecution team should be jailed because they are either extremely incompetent or corrupt or both.

Zambians have to live with a new phenomenon that PF is managing the Animal Farm where some animal species are more important than.
A definite pattern is gradually unfording to reveal the real genetic make up of PF Govt and the species that constitute this system. The case relating to Kapoko raises serious eyebrows when we take into account PF public declaration of zero tolerance on corruption. We have yet to know what the Prosecution Unit under the supervision of Mutembo Nchito will respond to Kapoko. Are we going to beliece that Kapoko is part of the PF refined group of plunders deserving Govt protection?
A clear trend is germinating from PF’ seeds of deception. What has happenned to K14 Billion dubiously obtained from Development Bank of Zambia by Mutembo Nchito and Fred Mmembe.
The PF attititude to opposition politicians is very hostile. The persecution of RB, HH and prominent members of MMD and UPND is crystalising out as a well orchestrated PF project to crucify the innocent and glorify the real plunders of tax payers money.
The guns are targetted at Ms. Siliya but God knows that Dora Siliya is innocenct. The process that has been instituted by Sata’s regime was purely based on embarassing, torturing, punishing and persecuting RB and his set of fine Ministers. The guns have now also been turned on HH and his presumed sympathisers. Elias Chipimo and Edith Nawakwi are not being touched for some understandable reasons.
A casual examination at the professional calibres of, Wynter Kabimba, Mutembo Nchito, Mumba Malila, Musa Mwenye and their appendages such as the ACC CEO, Dr. Mathani, Fred Mmembe, Andekeki, National Assembly Speaker and some well known partisan Judges paints a very gloomy picture on the moral standing of this PF Govt.
Kapoko will soon join the high table at PF’s luncheons. Yet Dora and many suspected sympathisers of the MMD and UPND are victims of a selective process of torture for which Sata is a Grand Master. The PF mode of governance is a result of a tragic Zambian national experiment
