*LEADERSHIP IN THE FACE OF POLITICAL-ECONOMIC CRISIS.*
It’s a growing trend in this country to use elections as means of supping power without critically analyzing what we will do for the nation once we form government. Politicians always determine how countries are ruled. They hold the key to the building of the nation or to the collapse of the same. The main call for this write up is the collapse of the nation and what causes such.
Any well meaning leader, politician etc,should focus on the following:
1. *STAMP OUT CORRUPTION.*
Corruption is a disease but curable when you have a selfless leader and preventable if the people vote out corrupt leaders. It is the duty of other politicians to inform the innocent masses of such devices so that people make a well-informed decision. However, corrupt leaders can amass so much wealth that bootlickers with a leadership jacket and academic hearts may go out convincing people that it’s okay to have a corrupt leader. The truth is, regardless of who is involved in corruption, it’s effects are disastrous.
2. *SPEAK AGAINST SOCIAL INJUSTICE* .
For a country to develope, social injustice must be condemned. Social injustice intimidates the nation thereby affecting economic production. Development thrives where social justice system is strong and implemented effectively. Now in countries like Zambia the social justice favors the ruling. Any president can be insulted except the incumbent. Any president can be threatened with matchets except the one in power. It trickles down to the opposition because it’s difficult to remain afflot in opposition and people need a bowl of soup, they are easily bought to an extent of forgetting what they stood for yesterday.
3. *SUPPORTING AN INDIVIDUAL OVER NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT(SELFISHNESS)*
This is the most critical one. The nation is sliding into economic depression and citizens are desperate looking for a person who has solutions to the high cost of leaving, social injustice, 23 and half hours of loadshedding etc. They are looking for that one person who will lead a team of experts both in their field of work and God given intelligence to reduce or eradicate the social problems.
My observation both from the ruling and some opposition leaders is, They will dress up to address the nation over a report written by UN on issues of human rights as false than explaining how they will speed up the distributions of medicines in the 65 containers which were lost but found. others will write long bootlicking articles praising their leaders of preference than condemning the incarceration of the two (2 )Gen Z advocates, Mwanza and the young lady over lone protest who have been in detention for 12 days now without charge.
The Citizens are interested in knowing the way forward, listening to the solutions that are achievable and attainable. Let’s not waste their data and drain their batteries in this loadshedding and high cost of living period over issues that are personal.
Citizens are willing to partner with any leader that puts the interest of the nation above self.

Well written as usual Madam praise singing empty vessels will not take time to read and understand your message that to many is anxiety provoking and amnesia will not help their God given brains to appreciate different views and beliefs.
Insults have become the most common form of communication among people who have little knowledge to understand constructive criticism or feedbacks. We saw in PF go to lusakatimes no opposition cadre will make constructive criticisms or comments against PF without either your comment is taken down or your competitors call you names of animals or where you hail from in hateful rhetoric or languages. Today if these people were listening to constructive criticisms/ feedbacks today they may be in power.
This is a lesson to our brothers and sisters in UPND learn to accept constructive criticisms or feedbacks this is not being weak or lacking the skills but a source of wisdom and understanding because you will get to know better what is a common man and woman are saying or feeling. When are planning your next move or moves you will be tens steps ahead of your opponents.
They say putting a bandage over the would with puss inside is not the best to heal the wound but remove the puss and clean it no matter how painful it is,

Madam Faith, you article sounds great till you switch to sound just like all other pfidiots.
How for crying out loud can someone that notified the police in accordance with the law that he’ll be conducting a “lone” protest be arrested for unlawful assembly?
It means he lied in his notification to the police because as it turns out he was not alone!
It seems you pfidiots seem to think you’re above the law.
Please go and sign his or better still their bonds do that when court time arrives and they don’t show you can end up like inside!!!!
