    Read this again! RENOVATIONS to a Presidential Lodge cost K6 million, BUT construction of schools, hosptal mortuary, and the rest cost less than K1 million. Imagine how many schhols and clinics they can construct if they had spent K1 million on rehabilitation and K6 million on schools and clinics. How often is the lodge used?

    @ Chinkole, Stae House was also recently renovated, second time in three years, at a colossal cost. Then they want a physician general office just for the president. Politicians are Gods in Africa. It’s now wonder Africa does not develop; no priorities apart from looking after themselves

    This PF quarks are now obsessed with making presidents as comfortable as they can. Presidents should ve a culture of creating their wealth (before) or building their own and stop misappropriation of our resources.

    I hope you bunch of distracted and disadvantaged monsters are aware of how many schools, clinics turned into hospitals,police posts,Universities,roads,our chiefs palaces,roads,Bridges name it,being constructed, With the growing population this country is going thru a lot of xpansion programs,its not PF initiative to construct the structure in question!If it bugs u you blame it on the initiators,PF simply carried out Rehabilitation to the failing structure, mind you to presidential standards. Globally presidential positions are very delicate,starting from movements stay, life styles are not like an ordinary Businessman,who builds a Hospital in new kasama as a residence,I wish your hero could have a feel of Power,but he is not a material!Kikikikikiki! Any way who cares about him!(PTO)
