    Sacred corruption for sacred ministers

    One of the reasons why Presidents have so much power, ‘unlimited’ privileges and immunity, is because they are expected to have good judgment. Those who draft constitutions and those who enact laws expect that the powers they bestow on a sitting Head of State would be used to the benefit of all citizens. For example,...

    Next, Lungu will stop going to church

    On Wednesday October 4, 2017, Senior Chieftainess Nkomeshya Mukamambo II invited President Edgar Lungu to grace this year’s Chakwela Makumbi traditional ceremony of the Soli people in Chongwe, but the Head of State turned down the invitation. Not only did he turn down the invitation, the President also vowed never to attend traditional ceremonies anywhere...

    Dear Mr Speaker Sir, you are a disgrace

    Mr Speaker sir, The day you were elected in charge of the National Assembly remains very memorable to us as journalists because we felt on that day we had won a long fought battle. The joy was overflowing and we recall deliberating amongst ourselves how we would address you. We were not sure which title...

    Many police officers smoke weed, drink beer on duty

    The brutal force which our police service has continued to use in their clampdown on drugs in Lusaka’s Chibolya compound is a source of concern. Yes, Chibolya is a drug haven and many youths there smoke marijuana for pleasure and whatever other Rastafarian reasons. But there are also a lot of innocent citizens who reside...

    HH must stop flaunting his wealth and join the struggle

    Hakainde Hichilema, president of the opposition UPND strikes us as a man who can restore order if he went into State House. In many respects, he is a decent politician; too decent in fact because he embraces dignity, which is not a necessary prerequisite for Zambian politics. We strongly feel that given a chance, Mr...

    Unions sleeping while govt rapes civil servants

    The outcome of salary negotiations between the government and trade unions has broken the hearts of many civil servants who had so much faith in their representatives. The PF government has raped the poor government employees because union leaders failed to show their determination and aggression in demanding cost reflective salaries at the negotiation table....

    Kambwili is a good bad man

    It has now become very clear that Chishimba Kambwili is a piece of burning charcoal that has fallen in President Edgar Lungu’s gumboots, and the Head of State doesn’t know how to get rid of it. He can claim that it’s not painful and that he threw it in there deliberately, but judging by his...

    PF wished their cadre, Kalaluka had died

    If the Patriotic Front were a comic group, many people would be hiring them to entertain guests at various functions. But because they are a governing political party, their jokes are annoying. In fact, the PF is behaving like that irritating comedian whom people are tired of booing but is refusing to leave the stage....

    Zambia Airways: Taking corruption to the sky

    We agree with those who are condemning former chief government spokesperson Chishimba Kambwili for waiting until he was fired to start seeing the corruption that is going on in the Patriotic Front government. The Roan PF member of parliament claims that he could not expose the corruption or condemn the bad decisions made while he...

    You are a President not Octopus

    “There is no project too small for me to commission; it’s unfortunate that I can only be in so many places at the same time. But if time allows, I’ll be everywhere to commission all projects, even if it meant commissioning just a toilet I would gladly do so,” says President Edgar Lungu. We disagree...
