If Edgar Lungu hadn’t illegally put Francis Muchemwa on the ZESCO payroll, Muchemwa would be a free man today- Romeo Kangombe
THE CONSEQUENCES OF POOR LEADERSHIP AND LACK OF ACCOUNTABILITY
If Edgar Lungu had disciplined JJ Banda, people would have forgotten his atrocities. If Lungu hadn’t illegally put Francis Muchemwa on the ZESCO payroll, Muchemwa would be a free man today.
The Lungu family’s involvement in public resources has led to their current troubles. In contrast, the Mwanawasa children live peacefully, untouched by scandal.
Kaiser Zulu and Muchemwa felt emboldened by Lungu’s lack of discipline, terrorizing citizens and abusing public resources. Dalitso’s 69 vehicles and filling station, Faith Musonda’s millions – all symbols of unchecked power.
PF members face problems today due to their own leadership’s carelessness and weakness. Lungu has not learnt a lesson, he has continued putting young people in problems by aiding them to escape justice.
President Hakainde Hichilema, on the other hand, shows tough love by telling UPND members to refrain from violence and instructing police to arrest those who break the law. He’s protecting them from future calamities.
Learn from this: firm parenting and accountability are crucial. Sometimes, telling your children “you’re on your own” is the toughest and most necessary act of love.
