KAMPYONGO MOCKS HH: “GLOBAL RECOGNITION IS LIKE PRAISING A FATHER WHO CAN’T PROVIDE”
30th December 2025
SHIWANG’ANDU PF MP Stephen Kampyongo says the UK’s praise for President Hakainde Hichilema in The Telegraph is like praising a parent who does not provide for his children.
He adds that Zambians will be rating him next year according to the way he has performed locally.
On Sunday, President Hichilema attributed his recognition by the UK newspaper, The Telegraph, as one of the world’s top leaders to the patience, resilience and determination of the Zambian people.
The publication stated that President Hichilema had turned the country into a prize coveted by two superpowers: US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping. Commenting on the matter in an interview, Monday, Kampyongo equated the global recognition to an attempt to convince…

PF’s understanding of economics is shallow. Before a farmer can get a good harvest he has to spend time caring for the crop until it matures and is ready for harvest. This is a process not an event. It takes time.
But as people pass by the field they begin to admire the crop though it won’t be ready for harvesting for months.
This is how you should view the recognition of the President by The Telegraph. They are admiring his efforts and in time, our country will reap a rich harvest.
People like Mr. Kampyongo believe in instant gratification hence they won’t see the value of the solid foundation that our President is laying. But I am certain HH will have the last laugh and he will laugh long and loud. The way I see it, he may end up being the best President Zambia has ever had. He is not there yet. Of course we all know who the worst is.
On point. These chaps are like children now, imagine as a father you are busy building a house somewhere so that you move out of a rented house then the children in the house are busy insulting you that you are not paying for DSTV (I would understand the children coz they are children, not these adult fools).
The people out there will be praising you that from your small salary you are building a house but your children in the house will be complaining. That’s why they say a prophet is not honored by his own.
What a refreshing comment. Kudos to you my brother.
This is one chap who should’ve been sitting in jail, not sure how it missed him. Lucky?
The opposition now is in the coffin, out of all the presidents listed you only choose your president as the only one not qualified to be praised, what about the rest ,because if HH should not be on the list then who can be ?
Stephen Kapyongo can you compare yourself to HH in all aspects of life, really? Is this what your quick earned money can do. Mwatampa ukulinganya amapuli. Even if it is jealous and hate, you can have some decency to acknowledge the reality. Who where you before you joined politics? No one knew you.
