I DON’T RESPOND TO COMEDIANS, MUTATI TELLS BEN
Science and Technology minister Felix Mutati says he does not respond to comedians, in reference to UPND member Major Ben Phiri who accused him of being a ‘flamboyant defector’ who has been rewarded by President Hakainde Hichilema with a ministerial appointment while he has been left in the cold.
On Wednesday, Phiri said President Hichilema had appointed ‘flamboyant defector’ Mutati, Thabo Kawana and Frank Bwalya and argued that Mutati who “hobnobbed” with former president Edgar Lungu in 2016 had been rewarded, including people he said opposed Hichilema, citing Information permanent secretary Kawana.
But Mutati was dismissive of Phiri when asked for his reaction by Daily Revelation, saying he could not respond to comedians.
