The opposition Zambians for Empowerment and Development (ZED) has observed that the spectacle of President Michael Sata struggling to go through his written speech during the official opening of Parliament on Friday yesterday only shows how uncaring the nation has become as a people.

ZED president Frederick Mutesa says President Sata’s state of health eclipsed whatever he was trying to say in his speech and that he clearly needs rest.

Dr. Mutesa says from how President Sata delivered his speech it can also be said that the people in the country have been fed with lies that the President is enjoying good health and is busy discharging his responsibilities as republican president.
He says he suspects that such alleged lies that have been fed to the people could only for the sake of allegedly protecting the interests of those that surround President.

The ZED president has told Qfm news that he is of the view the nation must become a little more humane and compassionate society and allow President Sata to rest and recuperate.

He adds that Zambia must also take a leaf from what the late former South African President Nelson Mandela did by appointing an energetic, loyal and capable vice-president to take over his duties when he realized that he needed rest.

  5. Our first lady Dr. Kaseba has faced serious attacks from some Zambian claiming that she should have not allowed the president to attend the meeting. The same people demanded to see the president in public. This is same woman who study with Sata even when he failed elections so many times. She encouraged him. In the midst of defeat and failure she was with him. She deserves to be with him even now. How many husband have wives who can stand with them the way she has stood with him. Many wives would run away

  6. The question is do we have money for a presidential by-election????? Think people think
