It is the conduct of your boss on this matter that is shameful and truly embarrassing.

Sishuwa Sishuwa writes;

First, your boss fast-tracked Lungu’s death by preventing the former president from seeking and accessing timely medical care. The right to life is EVERYTHING. By denying Lungu his legal entitlement – a point that the Attorney General admitted in court – your boss sent a clear message: he, in effect, wanted Lungu to die. Well, your boss got his wish.



Second, after Lungu died, your boss swore to attend the funeral of his predecessor – as if to mock him even in death – even when the family made it explicitly clear that he was unwelcome, appointed himself as the chief mourner, and declared that no member of the public must view the corpse before he does.



Third, following your boss’s refusal to stay away from Lungu’s funeral, the grieving family decided to bury the deceased in South Africa, but your boss – in an astonishing show of petty animosity, callousness, and cruelty – moved to halt a funeral that was underway! As a result of this action by your boss, Lungu remains in a refrigerator two months after his death. The plight of his grieving family is of little consequence to you and your boss.



Fourth, and more recently, your boss, through his lawyers, demanded access to the body so that he could “identify and authenticate” it because doing so was, to him, of “personal importance”.


Fifth, only yesterday, after the court hearing, rogue media outlets run from State House and several supporters of your boss started celebrating that “It is coming home” as though Lungu’s body is a trophy.


I can go on, Elias, but I believe you have got the point: you and your boss should be the last people to talk about shame and embarrassment because you have consistently demonstrated, through your disgusting conduct on several occasions including this specific one, that you enjoy immunity from such emotion and lack empathy.

  1. I’m reluctant to use such a statement, but clearly, this man is very dull; no wonder he went into the field of history. Who told him the former president was denied medical service? Haven’t the PF been singing about building hospitals as one of their main achievements during their tenure? So why didn’t the former president go to the same hospitals they sing about, like KK and RB? Who told this history man that going to the hospital in South Africa is a guarantee that someone can not die? GBM never went outside the country for medical treatment when he was seriously ill, but he survived, and he is still alive and okay today, but someone who went outside the country for treatment is no more. Which hospital was the former president denied medical treatment?

  2. Zambian Observer: you have again started blocking my comments! Why? I have always been reasonable and civil in my comments. Unless you don’t tolerate civility on this platform, your censorship of my contributions leaves much to be desired! I rest my case, and bye…
