THE TRUTH ABOUT LOAD SHEDDING IN ZAMBIA … ‼️‼️
….and why you shouldn’t believe those who claim it will end when they win in 2026.
——————————————————————————-
Load shedding has affected all of us, everyone including those in charge of leading us… no one has been exempted…..BUT to say when some people win , they will bring a stop to load shedding is a lie that we should never believe ever again….. PEOPLE NEED TO BE SINCERE AS THEY CAMPAIGN TO BE ELECTED IN THESE POSITIONS OF AUTHORITY…. NO SWEET TALKING ‼️‼️
As a person who had honest conversations with the engineers at Kariba North Bank…. I can’t be moved by such a declaration, in fact anyone who says the moment they win .. load shedding will end doesn’t know what they are talking about…
By the way, even the UPND underestimated the power crisis issue when they were in opposition, they thought PF were just being reckless until they found out the real problems and realized we are in deep eish
The power crisis we are facing can’t be sorted just by someone winning power, it needs serious planning and investment which most governments have been avoiding because of the huge expenses that this investment would cost.
Taking the words of one engineer that I had a conversation with at Kariba North Bank, For the longest time as a country, we have relied on the Kariba Dam for hydropower generation, while at the time of it’s launch the population of the country was only about 4 million, now the population has risen to about 21 million with so many industries and houses that have been connected to the national grid overtime. Yet the production of power has even reduced due to the water levels in the dam, making it impossible to give us 100% power 24/7. In short, the demand has gone high, while the supply remains very low.
To deal with this load shedding as a country, we need another infrastructure like the Kariba Dam project even two of it if it were possible which may take close to between 7 – 10 years for us to build.
Now that’s the truth that none of the politicians will tell you…. They want you to believe they can sort out the power issue in a twinkling of an eye ️…. IT’S IMPOSSIBLE ‼️‼️
Yes the President could have promised the Dubai plan, but maybe ….just maybe he didn’t put it in context that the problems of Dubai are far from the problems of Zambia
And that’s why at this time , anyone who tells you the moment they are voted in power, the load shedding issue will come to an end is doing nothing BUT LYING 拉 DON’T BELIEVE THEM.
For now those who can, please get alternative sources of energy like solar , Gensets etc… otherwise this issue is not ending anytime soon.
You can choose not to get this advice and continue being lied to. The Choice is really yours.
Yours fellow Zambian,

Aka – KEN Dumbo
Point
Some of these politicians are dull and think pipo in Zambia donot reason . Well spoken Ken dumbo. Lusaka grown 100 times from time unit was in power. It’s only the illiterate fools who can be cheated. Keep on educating the masses to vote for HH who is at least doing stand had vision
Kalaba he is like last shit tallies his height therefore expect nothing from shotman
The facts is they are selling what was the reason of building Kafue lower hydroelectric power station and upgrading all mini hydroelectric power stations, only a fool can sale and leaving his own children suffer,
Dont be mislead and start spreading what someone else has said.
“They are selling” who is selling and why? Explain why you say “they are selling”.
Kaunda coined the term “Kachepa” as a person who cites a story that he or she has heard without verifying how truthful it is.
If you are citing Emmanuel Mwamba. Most of what that man says; is false and this is why he is hiding somewhere; because the law visited him to tell the courts the truth. And when the Police went to arrest him. He not only resisted arrest but assulted a Police officer in the Process. And is now on the run.
So ba True man…twebeni who is selling power. Tell us who the parties of the contract and is the contract price and its duration citing the contract number so that we know and can verify that infact what you say is verifable fact that we can independently prove.
Stop lying. The power thing can be solved. Maybe no politician can solve the Kariba Dam generating power. Why are you not talking about Upper and Lower Kafue? When the Rhodesians were setting up the Kariba Hydropower, the commercial farmers and local business people in Zambia knew the problem it would bring. So they set up the Kafue Gorge Hydro Power Station. Stop mourning about the Kariba, go coal, go nuclear, go hydro in the northern circuit, explore other sources instead of sounding hopeless about the fossil called Kariba.
Ba Matumbo stop living in lala land. Yes we can go that direct but why in the last 60 years havent we?
Simple; a lack of Political will and capital. In the last 4 or so years the issue has seriously caught our attention as we can longer borrow to buy power pa nkongole.
Like mining alot of Politicans make noise about Zambians owning tge mines. But apart the one former ZCCM director who owns a small mine in Luapula. How many Zambians have the money and technical ability to run a seriously large scale mine? Pa libe. But every day people make noise where they can even feed their own small families that they can run a mine. Capital ability…palibe..zongo chabe. Same with power entity. Bwana just sit down and buy solar panels for your household and stop making noise.
