HH HAS FAILED IN ALMOST ALL SECTORS, NOT JUST ENERGY- MUNDUBILE
MPOROKOSO PF MP Brian Mundubile says President Hakainde Hichilema and his government have failed in almost all sectors, not only in energy.
On Tuesday, President Hichilema acknowledged that both government and the nation had failed in the energy sector.
He said government admitted its failure and would use it as an opportunity to solve the energy problem going forward.
In an interview, Wednesday, Mundubile said the President should have admitted that he failed in almost everything he thought he would thrive in.
“In as much as the President has acknowledged that they have failed in the energy sector, I think he should have gone further to also accept the other failures.
They have not only failed in the energy sector, they have also failed in the Agriculture sector. Today farmers still remain unpaid, and have failed in the area of the economy. We have a high cost of living, so he should have admitted that, ‘we have failed in the energy sector, in the agriculture sector, we’ve failed in the economy, we’ve also failed in the fight against corruption.’ So, admitting that he has failed in the energy sector is not enough; they have failed in almost all the sectors, so what he should have done is say, ‘look, we have failed in most of the areas where we thought we could thrive,’ and immediately render an apology to the Zambian people for unfulfilled promises,” he said.
“Him saying, ‘no, we have failed in the energy sector,’ it’s not only in the energy sector, he should have gone further to state all the other sectors he has failed. I don’t think he was being sincere in only mentioning one sector when the failure has been recorded in almost all the sectors. The biggest problem there now is the high cost of living. He should have started talking about the economy, the high cost of living, the poverty levels are now averaging 80 percent in the rural areas, and over 60 percent in the urban areas”.
Commenting on the President’s remark that the fight against corruption was not ethnic cleansing, Mundubile wondered how many people in his government had been arrested for corruption.
“If he says that the fight against corruption is not ethnic cleansing, we ask questions: how many people from his government have been charged, suspended or indeed convicted for corruption? There is more than overwhelming evidence of corruption in his government. The report by the American Ambassador tells a story, the reports around the 51 containers and other areas in the health sector tell a story. There have been reports written by contractors exposing the ministers soliciting for bribes, so there have been reports of Ministers being summoned by ACC and nothing has happened. We think that those are crocodile tears,” said Mundubile.
“Whenever he talks about thieves in Lusaka, he was referring to CDF, but today we see what is going on even with the increased CDF; we have people that would buy ambulances that take over two years to come. So, figures don’t lie, the FIC reports will give you an indication of what is really going on in the economy. So, the thieves are still in Lusaka.
Look at what is happening in the energy sector, we know of contracts that were given under open access in the procurement of fuel, and fuel was being sold at a premium. The neighbouring country Malawi would sell at half the price. So, I don’t know what he has done about those thieves.
Look at the export of power, businesses are collapsing every day because of load shedding, but there are traders who are trading in power making millions and millions of Kwachas, and they live in Lusaka. So, I don’t know what he has done to resolve the challenges of the thieves”.

Just chew his money.
This wanu is going nowhere.
At least he has managed to build a few pit latrines, though he failed to complete them because they are still not open.
REJECT TRIBALISM, CORRUPTION AND OPPRESSION.
VOTE FOR CHANGE IN 2026.
Mr. Mundubile, just work hard and market yourself, HH you always talk about is already very far ahead of you, his own works and achievements are campaigning for him. Do you think where HH has failed, then you you can manage? Won’t it just be worse? And do you think by talking about HH everyday, Zambians can shift to you? Zero. You are just campaigning for him if you don’t know. What we Zambians what to hear from you are things that you will do better than HH, without that, you are just a noise maker to us. If HH is giving us 40 m CDF, how much are going to be giving us? We want to hear from you before we commit ourselves to vote for you, nga ni ka 1.6 m mwaletupela mu PF, ninshi labako fye boy.
Mr Mundubile Sir, I have a different view Sir.
* HH’s admission of failure on energy must not excite you, but you must understand that he is telling the truth and this failure is spreading over all the past Presidents.As a country we have been depending on hydro power and we didn’t consider climate change.And this climate change aspect was doubted over a long time.We took it that God gave us rains and it would not ever give us a disappointment, ” drought” and we never thought of other alternative sources of energy.
*If any thing HH has made enormous efforts to source for other sources of energy because it is in his tenure of office that the drought hit so hard.And he is now changing the narrative.He says whether rain or no rain we shall now be having power.
* Your PF left huge debt and he and his government have to attend to the budden you left.The euro bonds and the fuel you subsidized but failed to pay for?
*The high cost of living has come as effects of your economic mismanagement,you the PF.
* The effects of drought is being felt because it had hit so much and created huge expenditure on alleviation of hanger to feed the affected people.
* Fight on corruption is not easy, the culprits of corruption have the tendency of fighting back and do kill evidence.Your PF people were in a reckless government and fell prey to the vice.Some of them supplied air and got government money and spent it larvishily on worthless things.
* The corruption in the current government is still under investigations so don’t think of selective prosecution, imagine how long it has taken to investigate and prosecute your friends, is it not almost four years and up to now some PF friends of your are still walking freely on the streets and even want to get back to power.If there are people who abused CDF their day shall come.
*The other issues you have raised remain as rumours or innuendos until proven so, and then the law will visit them.
HH means well for this country and all those who think of removing him from his office must know that the people of our country are not ready for that.
*We are tired of falsehoods and HH says it’s time to work and more work.To day Kasempa is no longer left behind there is ground breaking for the road from Kaoma via Kasempa to the border.What do you say? KWENYU Mutanda Kasempa kipushi.
