Well done sir. At least you did something even though it seems to be an afterthought. This also exposes the focus of your advisors sir. Have a chat with them and bring them to pay attention to the details of the bigger picture. You are a champion of education because it’s an equaliser. You also pay attention to the role of arts and sports. The death of an innovator should also have been mentioned in your message of condolences. These funerals have taught us something, more about what the people of Zambia spend most of their energy on. We need to reboot our mindset if we have to get back on the development path. I even doubt if we collectively share the same picture of the developed Zambia we want. This is your fundamental task, sir. Find a way of getting the citizens to believe in this common picture. For now we can only set the path and align the tools and skill for development, the others, I am sure will carry on. A legacy would have been created.
Afterthought? How do you gather that? That is being presumptive. The man just did that out of his personal resources when he could have sat back and watched.
A small gesture but great in the sense that someone actually went out of his way and did it.
Lets learn to show gratitude. What have you done Chester for a child or even an orphan that need help, a mother with kids and are sleeping hungry? Introspect.
This is agony, imagine between the two one was stone sober and not recognised while the celebrated was nicely oiled with a mass recognition. The one breaking the law of driving well celebrated is given a large funeral and the educated with good sense of judgement is given a befitting respected laid to rest. One gone to hell with alot of earthly celebrations and the other goes to eternity quietly. The two biblical gatherings. Rip educator, you up stand has made lots of families secured, yet the other has caused alot of miseries from his music, from diseases to divorces due to meeting cause by his concerts.
