BINWELL MPUNDU CASTIGATES THE UPND GOVERNMENT OVER CONTRACTION OF MORE DEBT
Nkana Member of Parliament Hon. Binwell Mpundu has castigated the UPND Government over reckless contraction of more debt.
Speaking in parliament today the UPND Government has taken Zambians for granted and have no social shame.
The Nkana lawmaker adds that the UPND is doing the exact thing that they condemned whilst in opposition.
“I think the UPND should be called the United Party for National Borrowing, elo nabatudelela and have no social shame. These are the same people that castigated aba nabo over borrowing but today they even have the guts to borrow on commercial terms,” Hon. Mpundu said.
They are not called hypocrites for nothing.
Vote with your stomachs in 2026.
Vote wisely in 2026.
…..and you want development with some kind of mindset. Let’s start with the mind, the invisible, the the rest will be visible.
Always and forever toxic and negative, as if this is part of the Solution!
Mr. Mpundu as an educated man one would hope you can make the distinction between sustainable borrowing and unsustainable borrowing.
Certain acts of law were enacted for this very reason.
Even when Government borrows. Or rather prior to borrowing. Government is now required to have the debt approved by a committee of your peers in Parliament.
Objective questions need to be addressed by that committee. Can government sustain this debt?
Even after that Committee approves the same question is put before the floor. And as MP you approve. Now you why do come back to us with that question? Why not air your decent in Parliament?
Zambia has borrowed since the early 1970s. Cause we didnt invest before that. We “chewed” just like during PF. In Parliament we need leaders who will ask critical questions on the investments government is making. Not the empty rethoric that we hear as checks and balances.
When these investments are ongoing. Who is monitoring that resources are being correctly applied? Or you are too busy overlooking issues and focusing on how you can find money so that you can come back to Parliament to earn another end of term graduity and its not about service? Or you allow the ” drunk Chisengas” and “insulting Muris” to turn Parliament into a circus instead of dealing with the serious business of Parliament.
Do some introspect before you come to us and speak to your Party Leaders and peers in Parliament and ask if your antiques serve Zambians or are just self agrandised shannigans, like childern.
some people have nothing in their heads. As long as Government can sustain the debts, there is nothing wrong and do what we have planned for is well and good. FORWARD WITH NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT!
