While boasting about the free education being implemented, Vice President Mutale Nalumango has said “ushitasha mwana wandoshi.”
Nalumango said during her question time in Parliament today that UPND is a caring government.
She said the New Dawn Administration is working adding that government cannot clean up everything at the same time.
Vice President said added that government has done so many unprecedented things while there was no money in the treasury.
“Surely madam Speaker, Ushitasha mwana wandoshi. Madam speaker, these are some of the things that have been done even though even though we found the economy was really biting. There was no money in the treasury and yet to do these things, colleagues think its magic.No its that calculation you saw you referred to there. These are unprecedented,” she said.
“This is the government that is working. We cannot clean up everything at the same time. Progressively, you will see. I know my Honourable member for Matero is listening carefully because he does believe that these things have happened despite difficulties. With the floods that came, we had to look after the victims. These are the moments people must say well done, can you say well done to us.”
Other than free education, the Vice President boasted of other programs such as the social cash transfer which she said has not only increased but that almost all eligible citizens will benefit.
She charged that only those affiliated to the PF used to benefit when the opposition party was in power.
Nalumango also boasted of government having been able to pay retirees who had for a long time not received their benefits.
“Those people that failed to go to school because of fees have reentered school as we talk. That is love for the nation. You go and tell them, social cash transfer has not just increased, it has it has streamlined, colleagues were paying according to political affiliation, many of us saw it, that is reality,” she said.
“An old woman, nothing, a younger woman something. What is that? This time it is going to almost all the eligible and it will continue to grow. It has grown to K400. Those are the stories you go and share, the good news that you go and share in your constituencies. You even remind them that in the long time. retirees had not been paid in this country. And this government the new dawn has paid retirees.”
