Police say Zambia’s president was treated in his New York hotel room by doctors but has not been hospitalized.

President Michael Sata had flown to New York from Lusaka to attend the annual gathering of world leaders at the U.N. General Assembly. He did not deliver a scheduled address to the 193-member world body on Wednesday.

Sata was treated on Thursday. He is about 77. He became Zambia’s fifth president in 2011 after three failed attempts. He is known as a staunch advocate for the poor and an opponent of Chinese investment in Zambia’s mines.

  14. Is that very strange? if it was in Zambia,it was going to be very normal am sure.probably it’s just a mere Flu?

  15. First and foremost, our president shouldn’t have travelled, period! Secondly, let us pray for our president, let us pray for Zambia.

  16. Stable killed late Mwanawasa,because every time we were listening situation of our late pre Mwanawasa on the news,the govmnt used to say,the condition is stable.

  21. May God watch over u Papa,U shall nt die bt live to Proclaim his word, so said da Lord our God !

  22. Even with late Mwanawasa it started as a rumour which govt vehemently refuted. Mwanawasa’s death was reported by international media 3 weeks before the official announcement was made by government. Could history be repeating itself?

    • if his dead they may deny for security reasons. However lets hope his alive for the sake nation.

    • its normal to be treated and natural to fall ill as nobody has a perfect body which is immune to all sorts of diseases.Yes the situation can be alarming but it all depends on how it is reported by journalists.if nit has some political senses then it will be good news to other politicians but a very sad development on the nation including the reporters as well.
