OLD HABITS DIE HARD – SECRET PRIVATISATION IS BACK
The systematic dismantling and disposal of parastatal assets by this corrupt UPND puppet regime amounts to “back-door privatisation”.
The relentless push to dispose of some parastatal assets and dismantle the entities to pave way for private companies linked to State House or associated with UPND politicians is a well-calculated evil scheme.
We are aware of how some parastatals are being reconfigured to allow both old and newly registered private companies with links to State House to begin running operations of specific departments in these parastatals at a huge cost to the taxpayers.
For instance, we know that some parastatals have deliberately shut down operations in some departments citing costs only to subcontract or outsource services from certain identifiable private companies linked to State House at a prohibitive rate.
We are also aware of the ongoing scheme to dispose of numerous assets belonging to these parastatals in order for individuals and private companies linked to State House to be the ultimate beneficiaries.
There are many examples that we could cite in this article that expose this systematic, corrupt collusion and asset stripping by this regime together with its allies in the business community and parastatal organisations.
We have said it before and we’ll say it again; the people who presided over this country’s worst “economic holocaust” – the privatisation programme – are back to finish us off.
These shameless, greedy elements have done nothing major to talk about since they came into power, yet they’re quick to sell our country’s assets to themselves for nothing. Baisa mukuwina, mukwiba. Ni ba pompwe munshibila nsala! And quite clearly they don’t care about the future of the country anymore.
Let the Zambian people not be under any illusion that what is currently happening to the parastatals is normal. There is “back-door” privatisation of parastatal assets taking place, and the culprits are known for their corruption and abuse of power.
This is a thieving regime that will stop at nothing to achieve their goal of enriching themselves.
But this endless pursuit of vanity will backfire someday soon. They should not think they can always get away with this corruption and theft of our country’s wealth and resources.
The day is coming when they will be made to account for their crimes against the people of this country, with everything they’re corruptly acquiring now repossessed and handed back to the rightful owners – the citizens.
Filapwa! Mukasebana ba pompwe nombaline.

Mmembe cite which one of those State House linked sub-contracted institution and Parastatal as a factual and concise example. These vailed comments and slants that are being thrown out on a daily basis to sway the perception of Zambians in to your warped means to get into power; wont work.
At the Post you stole to enrich yourself by tax evasion, its factually documented.
Attempts have been made prior at the assertion that the Privatization process was marred. Why didnt you report the facts then? Nawakwi tried to slander HH. She lost in court as her assertions and facts didnt line up.
Sadly, its you and your dirty hands that needs to be ashamed, yet you deflect consistently to sway that shame on to others with your daily diatribe. Dont you get tired? Are you so desparate to get into government and its purse strings that you will stop at nothing to bring down this government? If you have facts utter them “unashamedly”. So that those that protract these acts, you suggest are brought to book. Or else shut up. We are tired of your detractions that are just attempts to sway Zambians.
An article today, in this publication(quoting Malema) reiterates the Mumba led SADC Zimbabwe elections report. Castigating Ramaphosa for not speaking honestly to the Zimbabwean President. That is what we expect among our leaders. To chastise each other privately when they see something wrong, That is building each other up. Than this daily ranting that you spew, without any positive intent but slander.
You tout democracy yet when undemocratic tendencies show their ugly head you fail to speak up about them. What an embarassment you are for someone who claims to speak facts (without concise factual information) on issues.
I wouldn’t hold my breath and expect Mr. Mmembe to speak the truth. The man is used to making up stories without any remorse. A case in point, he alleged that a state house official ran away with over $5 million from the airport at the time of gold gate issue but up to now he has not brought any shred of evidence to prove his allegations.
Personally, I don’t take Mmembe seriously but I feel sorry for those who do.
Mambala iwe the law is clear you cannot sell state property without parliament approval. The era of telling lies is gone there is information everywhere.
