A report has emerged that UPND leader, Hakainde Hichilema is one of the richest t people in Zambia. Hakainde Hichilema might come across as a poorly dressed cadre who throws unusual dance moves on the podium but behind that dull looking face lies a brain of a genius.
Is it me or Hakainde Hichilema’s hairstyle never changes? His hair never grows or gets cut. This man is consistent with his hair.
Educated in Zambia and the United Kingdom, Hakainde has more than 16 years of in-depth local and international business experience. He has a strong interest and involvement in the commercial business development of Zambia and the African region in the context of the global business environment.
Hakainde Hichilema is the Chief Executive Of Grand Thornton Limited, the successor organisation to Coopers & Lybrand Association Limited in Zambia.
The Company which is a member of Grand Thornton international, provides business advice to local and international clients in a number of areas including corporate finance, accounting and statutory services, accounting systems procedures and controls. Other areas include privatisation, tax, forensic accounting and investigation, business recovery and insolvency, human resources, information technology, merger and acquisitions.
Hakainde Hichilema has major shares in companies like Zambezi Sun, Greenbelt fertilisers, farmer’s livestock. Hakainde is also the Cole owner of Kagem Mines and Kembe Meat Supply Company.
Sources close to Hakainde Hichilema insist he has shares in a Diamond Supplies Company for Bermuda; he also has cargo ships in Cape Town South Africa. Seven other firms have been withheld.

Hh is not the CEO of Grant Thornton (you have erroneously referred to this company as Grand Thornton), and he does not own Kajem. Anyway, much as he may have ka farm and ngombe and share investnts here and there,, HE FALLS BY FAR FROM EVER GETTING NEAR QUALITIES OF A PRESIDO OF A BIG COUNTRY LIKE ZAMBIA! Therefore, he shud forget about State House! He shud step down from being upnd presido NOW!! And leave it to be run by young vigorous chaps like Gary Nkombo or better still Jonas Shakafuswa. If he does not, he is going to suffer the most humiliating political defeat in 2016 at the hands H.E. ECL! Viva Edgar Viva! Abash Freemason! Abash!

Zambian politics are soo immature and petty.what has a persons physical appearance and financial standing got to do with how as a country we will conquer poverty levels.Its time we looked at substance in what politicians are to offer not this blind name praising HH o EL!no wonder 50years after independence we have little to show for.

@NEZ you support hh blindly! Have you asked him how he has, over a 16-year period, amassed so much wealth? Wealth, which far outstrips his emoluments in his former position as manager at grant thornton? I will never forget, how some of my colleagues died from depression as a result of the privatisation programme! I will never forget how we failed to send our children to school after losing employment as a result of the privatisation programme! It is from this programme that your hh amassed his wealth. Are’nt you being too naïve, Mr. NEZ watever yor name is, to expect me to support such a man as this, to get into the highest office in this our motherland? As for your party, upnd, I was only suggesting that you should try other credible leaders like Messrs Nkombo and Shakafuswa, to rise to the position of presido, then maybe your party can manage to send someone to state house! Otherwise with hh you will never go sideways, never even forward! Wake up from your dreams, nez!

This fool is still crying over privatisation which his late pf president resided over while in cabinet. You must be the dumbest idiot this side of the equator.

kiki very dull chap. who is publicizing his wealth? the only idiots who keep going on and on about it are the pf cadres who are threatened. If anything there is nothing illegal about one ownng all that property he owns. He does not owe you nor I any help. The best help he will give you and I and the rest of zambia is him running this poor country for the better. Till then continue suffering.
