OLIVER SHALALA REMINDS EDGAR LUNGU
By Oliver Shalala
Today Edgar Lungu should say ‘I’m a citizen of this country.’
What about HH, when he tear gassed his house with kids and an asthmatic wife inside?
What about when he locked up HH for 127 days over a road traffic violation?
What about when HH was made to escape through the roof top in a Ndola.building during a radio programme on Sun FM?
What about when HH was chased by police and escorted out of Chingola.from a church service?
What about when HH was put a in a window-less room at Lilayi Police College, with fresh faecal matter dumped by another human being?
What about when police killed Mapenzi Chibulo, Nsama Nsama, Joseph Kaunda, Lameck Banda and others under Edgar’s rule?
What about when his regime closed Prime TV?
What about the 45 people who died of depression when ECL closed The Post newspaper?
Weren’t all these citizens of this country?
Clearly, Mr. Lungu thinks that as a former president and commander in chief of the armed forces, he is above the law.
I wonder whether his immunity covers offences committed after his leaving the office of president of Zambia.
If not, then he must face the law for his careless treasonous utterances.
I suspect that ECL will soon learn that his immunity is limited to actions done or undone while holding the office of president.
ECL makes me wonder his reasoning. A lawyer? Levy made me understand and think that lawyers make good presidents; Lawyer ECL has diluted my belief.
A witch is a witch, whether then or now, the witch is an idiot and STUPID ONE for that matter.
Presidential immunity is not guaranteed especially when one commits a very serious felony.One president,sitting president for that matter had to be pardoned in America.And that president had to resign or he was to be sent to prison.A good number of his officials were prosecuted and subsequently imprisoned.The Watergate scandal.So former president must be responsible enough when making statements.
I think it’s just better to pardon him particularly if he is remorseful his age is not good for court rooms.I personally feel it’s not too late to openly apologize.The Lozi say *Haku fosi likota kufosa Batu.*Meaning it’s humans who error and not trees.When the Minister of Home Affairs addresses the house on the matter it will obviously attract a heavy debate such that even Mps who talk less will end up talking the loudest and that will be the beginning of trouble.So,the former president must call for a press conference and apologize to Zambians openly.Who knows maybe it was the slip of tongue.He must gather courage and do that quickly.
The reason we are failing to progress as a nation of Zambia is because we are dwelling too much on the past.
Soon it will be election time.
NO PROGRESS.
Tofo again trying to vilify a criminal so that he is made confortable with throwing stones at others without wanting to ve reminded of the log in his own eye.
Again I say, We must forgive. But forgiveness starts by the person who has sinned showing willingness to want forgiveness.
When we confess our sins to God, we show our willingness to want to be forgiven. What contrite action has Lungu show to us. Insulting the little resource that we as citizens have as crumbs. Arrogance and selfrightousness after stealing and mismanaging state resources.
