Dear Editor
I write to caution lands Minister Honorable Muchima to stop daring Zambians with demolitions of homes they have lived in when you went to them to lobby for votes during campaigns.

The maneuvers to ask Councils countrywide to demolish houses built on railway reserves and ZESCO and CEC leeway is but a shocking matter coming from the new dawn Minister.
First and foremost you are supposed to know that these land are not for councils but for various entities like ZESCO, railways and CEC, etc and are on tittles for them and wonder how the whole lot of Town Clerks and Council Chairpersons would sit mute listening to such rubbish in Ndola without even guiding the lost Minister they cannot execute because its not their land.
Lastly, if indeed such an activity should take place, let it start with Lusaka where the situation is worse. Why should you want to start it with Ndola town and Copperbelt? This is total nonsense.
It is apparent now that President HH is running a one man show because there is no way any sane Minister would today stand and instruct Town Clerks to effect demolitions of houses on the same areas you went campaigning on getting into power! Don’t take Zambians for a ride.
I feel this is meant to make President HH unpopular, hence one term President and party.
We are watching you closely. There is no way every government that come into power has to unleash its venom on the majority poor people who suffered to build their structures, while the elite are left scot free; the case of forest 27.
