Kwena Chitala chintala! Sorry I almost said chikala. Uyu umuntu mubi umutima siphoned ZESCO and he is pretending that he left a company in good standing. Honestly does he think Zambians are fools? Mututu fye pretending to be know it all.
At least we now know enough on you Derrick cum mbita chitala.
You have been around for a while. Probably, its only you and Newton Nguni
still around from the MMd ministers still seeking relevancy to the current dispensation.
However, you are clearly off the mark, past the sale by date and good for garden
fodder now. You are literally of no use apart from adding a voice to the tribal
and regional distaste against the current President and his Government. Do you still remember Mr Dean Mungomba and Mr Penza Ronald????. We miss them. Do you?
No one chooses when we should all leave but it would have been great to see your back out of
the door for keeps. Imagine being more irritating to society than Elias mpondela was till he dropped out and
away from our ZAAA…..! Your family need you. Zambia has no use for you anymore.
Bye
