Can I Imenda confirm if it is true that he now has private jets? If so, can he tell us when exactly he bought them?
Can Hakainde also tell us why him and his people are not declaring their assets, as he repeatedly promised that they would when he was pleading for us to elect him?
Can this government also tell us what has happened to the ambulances they have paid for?
REJECT TRIBALISM, CORRUPTION AND OPPRESSION.
VOTE FOR CHANGE IN 2026.
