Fuel Hike, Another Betrayal To Zambians- CSPR
Civil Society for Poverty Reduction (CSPR) says the PF government has once again betrayed the people of Zambia by hiking fuel prices when the cost of living in the country is still high.
CSPR Board Chairman John Lijimu says if government is indeed committed to reducing the high poverty levels in the country, they should be seen to create favorable policies that will reduce the poverty levels.
Mr. Lijimu says the move to hike the fuel prices will not help in reducing the high poverty levels in the country.
Mr. Lijimu tells QFM News that his organization has received the hike in fuel prices with great shock and disappointment.

We told you bane. We told you that these were just political gimmicks to get your votes. The easily gullible zambians fell for it. We do not blame you.We understand that under high levels of pverty and suffering such inducements can hard to resist. you all acted like any reasonable poor suffering person would in order to secure a saving.However, the pf thought you were fools who they would trick into voting for them based on cosmetic reduction of fuel. Now the reality has set in. We are kindly asking you to not make the same mistake in 2016 and vote UPND. We are tired of suffering.let us change this country

Now reports coming in from internal intelligence is that kapita has been booed infront of the so called pf president during his defection. He was called a thief by the seemingly upset crowds.kiki and you think this is a man who will leave an impact on the upnd with his departure? good riddance. As a mature party that is against petty personal politics, i will spare this man embarrasment on the reasons for his departure. we just hope he wont go on a childish route to attack our party personally because we can release details and proofs of his dubious activities. This proves further that the upnd is not a party for thieves and corrupt elements. naturally such elements find it hard to live among men of intgrity and honesty. we thank you. viva upnd. kapita is clearly an upset and frustrated man who is desperate for a ministerial position, he will say anyhting that pleases gullible chaps like the pf.

Your forlorn cry is heard. Much like the howling of a coyote or a mongrel on a quiet full moon night. Suddenly, the Wise Kapita will become a dull kaponya to imbeciles like you.
Your intelligence decided to report of booing which was not captured by live audio-visual equipment? Maybe you’ll say photoshop? It’s OK, tamusumina. ONLINE victors, that you are.

What else do we expect from such idiots like this organisation?
ERB regulates the prices of Energy in the country. It sets the prices according to the trading trends of the comodity. The price is determined by the prevailing parameters.
If you think poverty can be sorted by subsidising fuel, you are cheating yourself.
And you fools are just there to critisize. Where do you think government would get money to subsidize everything? You are the same idiots who are again in the forefront condemning government for contracting even productive loans. What if they borrow for consumption, what are you going to say?
If you can cry on productive loans how about loans for consumption?
You idiots dot even pay tax in any form but you cry the loudest. Us who pay taxes heavily, we do not even compmaplain about loans for development.
If you think you can decampagn the PF for 2016, mwanyafye. The work of the PF can be seen on the ground even by the poorest of the poor and they appreciate.

kiki please i want you to point me to one zambian living in lower class areas who is over the moon about his situation and celebrating his hunger. the high costs of living are not tenable any more. Even a fool who has been living in a cave would know that things are bad. please take your head out of your backside and face reality.

But there’s some truth in what Kapita is saying that HH hates a certain tribe. Do you agree?

@baba i knew you were a bit of a fool but even i didnt think you were so shallow as to go down the tribal route. let us be mature and sober in approach. I know many tonga people and it is very folly for you to show prejudice towards people based on their tribe. One should not feel proud or persecute another based on tribe. Something that that you didnt work to achieve. the notion of tribe was brought about by the colonialists in order to bring about disunity amongst us. it seems you have fallen for the mouse trap

@ Hello Haters & NEZ, you call me childish when i was merely asking if there was some truth in what Kapita was saying? Mind you Kapita wasn’t a common cadre like you’re but somebody with a superior position in the party.His resignation should trigger any right thinking person about what has gone wrong for a person who remained loyal for 17years. Hence, his outbursts are not as a result of frustration but something deeply wrong with HH that he couldn’t bear anymore.It is high time you realize the candidate you support is not the right one for the party. I am well aware that HH solely funds the running of the party and that he does not listen to any other member, no wonder he cried after loosing that election after investing so much money in the campaigns.

That’s just the difference. You shout from a 32nd floor rented apartment in Europe asking to be pointed to a person who is surviving on bare necessities in Chief Shaibila’s area? I would have stated that you are a fool had it not been a long known fact. My friend, we live among these people. They have moved from point A to D on the economic strata. Yes, they would want to see better, but not the hakainde/Muliokela way of promising to dish out free 1000 kwachas to babies. Through hard work.

Very sad that such rifraffs are going without condemnation by their own party the PF. Tribalism has no place in our very loving and peaceful country. please if you have failed to articulate yourself better your turn off that computer or phone and find a better way to release your frustration brought about by the same incompetent party you support. Whether you insult my tonga brothers or not, that will not help your cause. we are one and we remain united. It seems in time of failure the small minded idiots find it easy to put minorities as their scapegoats. same thing is happening with the growing nationalist sensations weeping across europe. Please zambia is our only home let us not let such dogs temper with our peace. One zambia one nation

When the fuel prices came down, business houses maintained high prices and so called civil orgs zipped their mouths.
What are they up to?

People the Government has no control over the Market price for Fuel so is copper. Neither HH, Chipimo, Nevers Mumba nor Edgar Lungu has control over the world market for fuel. Any increment in any commodity the final consumer will feel the effect. Just adjust your cost of leaving do not blame the Government. When there was a reduction most of the people kept quite when supper markets never reduced the prices for commodities. Lets be analytical and fair not finger pointing
