HICHILEMA CLAIMS; KK told me I would be president one day – Hichilema
PRESIDENT Hakainde Hichilema has revealed a long-held secret during the Kenneth Kaunda day celebrations which happened in Chinsali Yesterday.
The Head of State said Zambia’s first President Kenneth Kaunda once told him that he would be president one day.
President Hichilema shared that this happened about 21 years ago.
“He said I have a message for you whether you know or you don’t, you will leave business and you will enter politics and you will become the president of this country,” revealed President Hichilema.
“So I said what is he talking about I’m a business man I’m not a politician
How can I be president?”
He went on to highlight similarities between his regime and Kaunda’s emphasising shared values such as free education, healthcare, and national unity.
President Hichilema also expressed his administration’s commitment to caring for the vulnerable.
“We want to take care of orphans, poor people for them to go to school,” he said.
The President commemorated Kenneth Kaunda’s centenary birthday at Lubwa Mission in Chinsali accompanied by the Kaunda family and other dignitaries.
Colonel Panji Kaunda expressed gratitude to President Hichilema for honoring KK’s legacy, noting the significance of the President’s presence in shaping future narratives of Zambia’s history.
A compassionate man. The only President after Michael Sata who truly showed compassion for the Kaunda family. A very good man. He has kept his promise to Rupiah Banda not to jail Buckteeth Lungu despite the latter behaving like a hopeless buffoon out of pure jealousy and malice. May God please shut up this old man!!!
Lies, lies, lies.
It was for this reason KK left a recorded video from his death bed warning us about HH. But we dismissed him. Now see what problems we have.
Vote wisely in 2026.
Yes he also told us that you will be a bad one and true to his words it is so.
