THERE’S NO CORRUPTION HICHILEMA IS FIGHTING; A REAL FIGHT AGAINST CORRUPTION MUST START WITH HIMSELF
In Matthew 7:3-5 we are told: “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.”
This is truly the case with Mr Hakainde Hichilema’s fight against corruption. How can Mr Hichilema be expected to sincerely fight corruption when there’s so much grand corruption and looting surrounding him?
We have said this before and we are repeating it, any meaningful fight against corruption in this country today has to start with an investigation of Mr Hichilema’s own dealings in almost every sector of our economy like mining, fuel, fertilizer, insurance, grain imports and exports, property or real estate, construction and manufacturing amongst many others.
There’s urgent need to probe Mr Hichilema’s dealings in almost every sector of Zambia’s economy. And he should be able to answer questions about his dealings.
Without doing so the fight against corruption in this country becomes hypocritical, meaningless, a facade, and an exercise in futility.
Any meaningful fight against corruption must start with an investigation of Mr Hichilema’s business interests.
Mr Musa Mwenye, the chairman of Anti Corruption Commission (ACC) has been very consistent in demanding that Mr Hichilema discloses all his business interests. For what?
The day Mr Hichilema is made to fully disclose all his business interests, without being able to conceal anything, will mark the beginning of the end of his presidency and the beginning of his journey to jail.
There’s no genuine fight against corruption Mr Hichilema is really waging. His so-called fight against corruption is nothing but a deception, a diversionary tactic, a farce, a vindictive campaign. The real fight against corruption must start with him and his league.
How can Mr Hichilema claim to be fighting corruption when all powerful dirty deals we are seeing, hearing and reading about are the brainchild of State House? In short, this presidency is extremely dirty and it’s at the centre of almost all the grand corruption and financial and economic crimes currently taking place in the country.
This presidency is organizing and perpetuating corruption and looting of public resources and funds.
They’re incorrigible liars and fraudsters!

This fool can write!
Hard-core Pension Thief called Fuledi Mmembe!! The fella is a Conman, Thief, Lazo, etc. For him it’s inborn and stealing is a way of Life. His aim in life is to steal.
Even from Mazoka he wanted to steal something!!
Well, praise singers can contradict this assertion by providing numbers of exactly how many people have been convicted for corruption since Hakainde took over. I will save you the trouble of counting coz you are dull and can not count.
ZERO!
Your ka small god is exposed as a fake and conman.
Running a country is not the same as herding cows and cleaning up cow dung. Totally different skills set, as we have come to find out.
This kind of politics will only make you irrelevant. Politics of character assassination have no place in Zambia. Those days when you used to arrest, prosecute and convict inocent people through the Post Newspaper are over.
Iam still very concerned and unhappy that the President, HH, has not made his assets and liabilities public. We need to know how much he was worth when he ascended to the Presidency.
Same goes for the former president, ECL. We know he was worth US$23million in 2016 from US$2.5million in 2015. How much was he worth when he exited the presidency in 2021? Some sources have him at US$89million.
Failure by both gentlemen to disclose their financial standing will only fuel speculation and give credence to claims of corruption and plunder.
Why are the two denying us this vital information? We want to track their growth or decline and gauge for ourselves whether the growth is realistic or the product of corruption and abuse of office.
