Opposition Party Leaders must be seething with anger and frustration. Carpet Rug being pulled under their feet. The only Straw remaining for them to hold on and clutch on is “loadshedding”.
Our opposition lacks brains, I’m sorry to say this but painfully it’s true.
Anything is a great achievement for Mr Hakainde Hichilema! A phone call to the US Secretary of State Marco Rubio , and we should start Dancing in Zambia…
And Praise Zealots, are in a frenzy on what a Great feat , never ever seen since Creation of Zambia! A Phone call??
Inferiority complex elevated to state policy..And again the man who was dying for a selfie with Joe Biden, is at it again.
It’s indeed hard to get the Village out of a Villager…The biggest smile on his face reaching the back of his neck, I have talked to a White Man. Can the whole village celebrate!
This was wonderful, but don’t overexpose the presidency by giving prominence to meeting a son of Trump and then discussing investment, I blame his handlers for that because it should have not been given prominence unless that son was directly sent to deliver a massage to him.
