Miles Sampa vows to restore former Presidents on Kwacha notes!
Matero Member of Parliament and Patriotic Front faction leader, Miles Sampa, has pledged that his party will reinstate the portraits of all former Zambian Presidents, including current President Hakainde Hichilema (HH), on the country’s currency if PF returns to power.
In a statement shared on his Facebook page , Sampa criticized the absence of past Presidents on Kwacha notes, describing it as a lack of recognition for Zambia’s former leaders.
“Only in Zambia are former Presidents ignored on currency notes as if they were not the country’s heroes once upon a time,” Sampa stated.
He assured that a future PF government would restore all former Presidents’ images on the Kwacha, emphasizing the need to honour past leaders who played significant roles in Zambia’s history.
Sampa’s remarks have sparked mixed reactions, with some supporting the idea as a way of preserving national heritage, while others argue that currency design should focus on national symbols rather than individual leaders.

Holding my lound laughter!
We must start talking about very productive issues in this country, mitu za bantu pa ndalama” what’s that? Let’s bring productive talks.This kind of thinking will just cause some serious labour in creating some good print design to make the notes look attractive.Iam not suggesting that our leaders were not handsome no, but I am looking at the size of notes you put watermarks, figures ,other writings and human faces it will be an overload.
No issue based politicking. And he was to be president!!
To restore the portraits of former presidents on kwacha notes and then achieve what? I for one didn’t know that Sampa was so cheap, the guy can hardly say anything sensible these days.
Restore former presidents’ portraits on our bank notes? There’s only ONE president who had his portrait on our bank notes, Dr. Kaunda.
Mr. Sampa as usual is wasting our time. He is totally bankrupt of useful ideas to Humove our country forward. The last time he was in the news, he was visiting the social misfit, aka “Why me”.
Between ECL and Mr. Sampa, I would choose ECL any day.
Sampa = CHIKALA
CHIKALA= baboons
Baboons = PF
PF= LUNGU
Therefore Lungu and sampa are the same dogs.
Ati if PF comes to power. Imagine a note with CHIKALA LUNGU’s effing dick face on it
Portraits of heads of state how are they going to help to grow the economy??? During PF criminals economy tumbled and was in limbo
I told you about this man yesterday….
