yes he has traveled 10 times so far, so what

The outcry by most opposition political parties about President HH’s purported wasteful international trips is very loud and clear.
Yes he has traveled such many times and its indisputable too. It is also indisputable that the trips are cost effective because they don’t abuse our treasury through a bloated advance entourage, something which was not seen before.
What is however silent from the same opposition political parties is acceptance through the same loud voice that there is free education from Grade one to twelve so far, that equalization fund debts to all councils have been cleared, salary arrears to all councils have been cleared and pensioners have been paid.
The truth is that they don’t want to acknowledge such huge achievements by the New Dawn government in just few months just because they want to sway everyone into their political battles. Much has indeed been achieved from these trips unless to someone blinded by hate
These achievements could not surely have been attained just within the five months of New Dawn government’s being in power without international engagement to instill confidence amongst our corporating partners.
It is sad that our political platform is besieged by hate for one another than helping one in office to achieve more for the benefit of every Zambian.
You can tell even from the in-fighting within their political parties that it is not about Zambians’ welfare but their well-being.
