Sending love to Mr Davis Mwila
He just like many of us have our good and bad sides. One of the good sides of this man here Ba Davis Mwila was that he was very very generous. i dont know now coz we havent met in over 2 years.
One day while covering a PF function at the PF’s secretariat, after the event he was like “Iwe Mwaiche ulishani (youngman how are you) epo waba kale sana? (Are you around? long time?.) wisee ku office. (Come to my office). when i was cleared to see him, he jokingly said “ulemoneka sana insala, ani ushiteko akabunga while handing me an envelope. (You look very hungry, here is something for you to buy meali meal)
when i opened the envelop, there was a ka 5pin mwebantu.
Today i wish to send love to you bakalamba
Yes they were thieves. But most of them did share with Zambians they money they stole. Bowman did the same. They all pretty much shared the stolen loot with Zambians, and built houses in Zambia.
This is much better than stealing and sharing with your foreign white masters only, or stashing stolen loot in Panama. By the way, that money in Panama will never ever come back to Zambia. When he dies, Panama will chew that money. Even the money FTJ stashed in London is still in London.
Finally you are admiting what you are. An accomplice to criminal acts.
With no moral campus but because you failed to be productive in your life. Sharing the spoils of ill gotten wealth that belongs to Zambian that wallow in poverty is fine with you indigo.
HaaMulenga, learn to read so that you can understand the alternative at hand, and in progress.
He is making Panama richer while you are busy worshipping him.
And who told you I have failed to be “productive” in my life? Not sure what that really means. Just rephrase it in Tonga so I can understand please.
Stop your primitive tribalism
This is just the state of a warped up mind soiled with hatred for Tonga people. How can one surely celebrate the looting of public resources by PF officials and cadres? And bring the name of a particular tribe or indeed a person in the article written by Kalani Muchima about Davies Mwila? The reaction to Mulenga with such tribal malice and hatred just exposes one not only as having been a beneficiary of the crumbs that fell from the table of those PF big thieves, but also as one of those who still wish that the Zambian presidency is a preserve of only persons from certain tribes and regions.
This is rotten thinking and Zambians will never again be divided on tribal or regional lines. Whoever still believes in the supremacy of a tribe or region will only waste their time and energy spending sleepless nights writing long articles full of insults and hate speech against other tribes and regions. This is utter primitive.
Your type are not clever at all, hence the problems we are seeing. Stick to farming and cows please.
Hmm still in that checked shirt?
This mindset of glorifying handouts that are actually crippling your ability to fend for yourself is what is killing Zambia. People have become addicted to handouts, they are tantameni junkies. When someone tells them there is a better way, just like alcohol junkies, they get upset.
He gave you K5pin and it didn’t last you even the whole month. This government is offering you to go for skills training so that you are able to make that K5pin every month.
Don’t be used to begging/handout and having that careless mind where U don’t care if that K5pin he gave U was supposed to pay for Oxygen for the sick person.
Kakani, why are you putting him in the past tense
@Samlindo, majority of Zambian journalists struggle when it comes to writing and speaking proper English. The quality of Zambian journalism schools must be very poor.
What generosity? That was easy come, easy go money. Somehow its intended purpose has been achieved. There you are a senior journalist praising someone for giving you a brown envelope containing looted money. And you still kept your job? Talk of principles and ethics!
Even Mark Simuuwe once told me that the difference between PF and UPND was that PF were generous.
Anybody can be generous when it’s not your personal money that you are dishing out.
