WAKE UP AND START WORKING, TAYALI TELLS HH
Yesterday, in the morning, I hopped from one filling station to the next looking for K100 fuel because I was broke. By the time I found fuel I had covered a distance which made my K100 fuel no difference.
I spent half on my day, at my office, waiting for clients who never showed up because, I guess they were as broke as I was. There is no money around.
Luckily, the shoe I had ordered online for my wife came in so I rushed home to celebrate with my wife.
Later on, in the evening, my wife decided to take the entire family out on her account. Unfortunately, her ATM couldn’t work as they system was down.
I decided to come in by borrowing K500 from a friend. She sent the money to my mobile account. I rushed to East Park Mobile money which closes late, only to find that it was closed.
On the same K100 fuel, I had put in the morning, we drove to Arcades to draw the K500 from the Mobile money, only to be told the system is down.
Imagine the disappointment and stress, no fuel, no money, no electricity at home to cook.
Anyway, my wife came up with some Ethiopian magic and we managed to put fuel and eat something.
Coming back home, no ZESCO, we had to bear the noise of the generators throughout the night.
I am now thinking…., how is President Hichilema feeling right now, because he promised us that, immediately he comes into power, life will be easier.
President Hichilema never took any excuse from the Govt when he was in opposition, he blamed it all on poor leadership, corruption and inefficiency.
So, how are we going to take this, should we listen to the excuses of the New Dawn or blame it on leadership, corruption and inefficiency?
Back then, when I understood the situation of Govt and spoke for them, I was insulted and accused of having been paid by the PF.
Anyway, I still understand that at times things go beyond our intentions, or powers or capabilities. At times life has it’s way which we can’t control. I hope President Hichilema and the UPND cadres are learning lessons.
