Panganga, Mamgunutu Jojomi saya ni hiwi, To share this to your imagination. Hwnnimu, prezident is in China and it's been given the decorum and the honor he has been given all the honor and decorum that comes with the state visit and he has been given the God of Honor. We know that the president of Venezuela, President Madulo, is in China and President Madulo has been given the honor and decorum and the presidential guard and our president has also been in China for the last five days the only thing we see the president doing is going around doing window shopping for five days president China has been in China the only thing he has been doing is window shopping you can't have five days of a president doing window shopping and clearly you can see that the Chinese government has neglected president each level he is trying so much to be seen he is trying so much to push himself on the Chinese government they have not given him the honor, the decorum they have not even given him the attention that a president who is visiting must be given clearly the president is in China for window shopping is in China for tourism purposes he is in China just to go around and enjoy himself you have been told that Wallace is there he has assigned the number of the number of understandings various MMOs there that will see some benefits being brought back home here let me be fair to the president our president has not come back to a connection he has not come back to a president he has not voted to a connection he has not been given the honor he has not voted to a 25 billion US dollars foreign direct investment now he has been sent to a president he has done a TRIP 51 no we will see the 21TRIPS today we only have 21TRIPS in 204 months now he has done a TRIP 51TRIPS in 204 months I challenge him to a lot of nearly 120 investment Agrikachama pa ya mpa sawantu na meida.

Let's look at the plight of the Sipo-Sevans. We need to be honest with our people. Ma Sipo-Sevans wafu lazingadi, ma Sipo-Sevans wana man kungulikul oma microfil, most of the Sipo-Sevans are walking away with less than 40% of their total salary every day. What is the cost of fertilizer? What is the cost of milimiku? What is the cost of medicine? What is the cost of transport? These are the issues the president who cares about the people should be concentrating on. He doesn't concentrate himself on the social and economic issues affecting the Zambian people. Last week the president in the third session of the 13th National Assembly he talked about a number of issues, some of the challenges that the country is facing and what his administration is doing about it. Of course he made it clear that he is alive to the fact that things are hard. As a new dawn government which was voted by the people that has the people's interest at heart they are doing everything possible to see that an ordinary Zambian does not complain about the price of milimiku in general it is just the cost of living. Kombrende, it is simple when the president says I know you are suffering it doesn't mean he cares he is just telling you that I know that you are suffering he has to prove that he cares by telling the Zambian people what his government is doing to bring down the cost of milimiku and I will tell you for a fact that milimiku prices will continue to go up they will continue to go up in fact from the associations that deal with agriculture they have already projected that by December we will be buying a bag of milimiku for 500 kwacha in certain districts and certain cities this president has removed the indirect subsidies on fuel the price of fuel will continue to go up the price of fertilizer will continue to go up the price of all farming inputs will continue to grow up to go up so how is it going to reduce the cost of milimiku if you go to the millers today they will tell you a consortium of millers in Lusaka will tell you they were spending a maximum of 20 million kwacha per month for their operations now they are spending over 35 million kwacha per month for the same operations because the price of transport the price of storage the cost of everything electricity has doubled by the way Lord Shedding I am I saw Muzan in Nzahuuzan Lord Shedding I am Panobantika and Bama places ma mimi milimiku why? I have a van too they don't care about you and me they are selling electricity but ma kumbu milimiku ma industrial area ma mimi milimiku but they don't care about how that affects you it doesn't matter because we wakudi wakudi amuri sujiraiti wakudi amuri godi wakudi kuma kuma tax deals ya mimi wapanga na mimi wakudi amu madiru ya fertilizer wakudi amu madiru ya misel wakudi amu madiru ya sia government they are chewing they can't feel the pain of an ordinary woman an ordinary mother because they are too comfortable look at what they did to kulema street vendors I've heard the people say why sivangena muma market how many places do we have in the market I've done analysis a socialist party I've done analysis we have found that actually we have less than 1,300 stands across the whole lusaka province muma market and the analysis also shows that we have about 10,000 people on the streets who are selling different things others mutauni bagulisa chensuko bagulisa tokasava bagulisa tujawa if you put together all these people that are trading on the streets the number exceeds 10,000 people so about 10,000 which market is going to hold the problem here is street vending sivangu the problem here is street vending boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom 357 milioniyos dolas diyus mufetlaizu. What they have done is, first of all, they float my tender. Then they cancel those tendas in order to buy time. And that's what they have been doing. Whereas the buy time when there is a limited time period before the rent season, they use that as a justification for them to single source. As we are speaking right now, they have a list of farmers, agro dealers, whom they have already made to give me contracts. Kay, they are single sourcing. So they have a list. They are single sourcing. So they have a list. So they do all these bidding processes deliberately just for face value to show that no, they are transparent. Today is the 14th. They have not yet listed the people to be given fertilizer deals. Today is the 14th of September. Fetlaiza has not been bought. Fetlaiza has not been brought in the country. Fetlaiza has not started being distributed. What time are they going to start distributing fertilizer? They want to justify by creating this money-making crisis. Then they use the ZPP Act to justify single sourcing. So we have a government which in a nutshell, and this is why I am saying when you hear Pres. Hakayin des ame itchilema telling new stories, just take them as stories. I want to encourage Maan Thwam Zambia. Joseph Muwenapresdenda Nw'e Pa TV. Mukha Shinja Tse station. Kuze nima stories jaa mi na kuhuza ni. He can't reduce the cost of, mi ni mi hu, ni boza hi. He can't reduce the cost of fertilizer. Hie ni boza hi. He has no economic plan. Assazina mamandu. He has no economic plan. Let's get to this point. Let's tune him out. Let's get to this particular point. The President has mentioned to say that it's funny and sometimes he feels he's the only one who's realized to say in the two years that he's been in power he's been asked to change things that were destroyed in 10 years. How is it possible? Why don't we give him enough time to see how he's going to turn around things? Comrade, I don't want to sound like PF but let me say this. What is it that he found that was broken? Let's pick date for instance. In 27 years of power 27 years in office President Dr. Kenneth Kaunda May so rest in peace left a date of 7 billion US dollars. In 27 years, 7 billion. Let's jump to President Edgar Chagualung. In 7 years and President Michael Sata combined together 10 years they left a view of 14 billion. Okay? To be specific 12.91 billion US dollars. In 2 years I want the Zambian people to go to the website for the Minister of Finance to go to the website for the International Monetary Fund IMF you find that in 2 years, 24 months this President President Hakain Desa Mejle and his government have contracted in Kongole with 6.2 billion dollars in 2 years, 24 months. 6.2 billion US dollars. Check your records with the Minister of Finance go to the website and check. Check your records with the International Monetary Fund IMF you find that this government has contracted a date with 6.2 billion dollars in 24 months. Bayujin we have to ask them what have they done with the money? Kusiawa waan tu Hakainkwa nopanga road Hakainkwa nopanga school Hakainkwa nopanga my industries Hakainkwa nopanga my hospital So your 6.2 billion dollars you may never take what have they used it for? And if we can contract 6.2 billion dollars in 24 months imagine what will happen in the 3 years which is remaining with the date by the time that President Hakain Desa Mejle will be leaving office in 2026 the Kongole within 5 years will be exceeding 15 billion US dollars 15 billion US dollars Now our socialist party we want to be very practical and very generous where can government get the money to continue its responsibility of providing roads, schools hospitals, medicines, teachers teaching and learning implements One is through taxation from the mines So if this government cared about the welfare of the people they should have made sure that the mining conglomerates are paying their fair share of taxes If you combine tax evasion tax avoidance externalization of profits nani tax remitans and any other illegal financial illicit flaws the mining sector alone is losing 3 billion US dollars every year Imagine what we would have done as a country if we are just able to put our house in order pursue policies and measures and the taxation regime that makes us collect what is owed to us The 3 billion US dollars annually would change the face of this country would not go to the IMF to ask for 1.3 billion US dollars that comes with stringent austirit measures which has resulted into reduced government expenditure we need to cut down these things what is the implication of government reducing expenditure on education we are seeing what we are seeing today go to the schools go to the schools ma teachers in government schools are using their own money to buy rims of paper I teach English when you go to a government school today if it's comprehension that you are teaching the children on that particular day you have to go and make photocopies on that topic using your own money and distribute the quality of education has completely been killed under this government because one, our children are going to school on empty stomachs they can't concentrate they can't go to school because my parents are not going to go to school that affects the Mwana Fikam class first of all secondly I am in the 5 kilometers in the class look at the rate of teenage pregnancies it has continued to rise these are the impacts of having a broken down education system look at the number of children who are failing exams at grade 7 grade 9 and grade 12 under the new dawn government that number has increased those are the impacts of having a broken down education system how much does this government give to secondary schools primary schools as a grant on a monthly basis some schools which are lucky are getting up to 3000 kwacha pay tail as a grant from government those that are not lucky are getting as low as 1700 kwacha if a school gets 3000 kwacha they have to pay for water bills they have to pay electricity bills they have to pay for work homes at school in Jamiwapianga in Sweepers, Krinazi in Garden Boy they have to pay only 3000 kwacha can you manage to pay all those things if you come to the issue of agriculture I think my fate lies is the first of all in January when fate lies should be with a farmer in September and if fate lies this is the president who told us he will be giving farmers 12 bags of fate lies per farmer 2 made per farmer Mutengwa fate lies has doubled how is a farmer going to produce for a profit it is not possible where are we going wrong and what are the solutions for us as socialist part we believe first of all that power to decide must be given to the Zambian people the Zambian people themselves must control the agro policies and that's what socialist part is offering make Zambians own the agro sector the people are giving contracts to provide fate lies seed chemicals must first of all be Zambians must first of all be Zambians because when we pass contracts to Zambians it means Zambia Zambia is the case as the case is by allowing money to remain in Zambia you are creating jobs for the Zambian market we believe as socialist party that businesses number one must be given to the Zambian people let them own the businesses if as socialist party we don't believe what UPND is doing mapo yama la iti mapo yama la iti but in 107 million US dollars the wealth of contracts when we pass to Zimbabu and South Africa they are creating jobs in Zimbabu and South Africa mapo yama la iti when we pass to Zambia they will do that they manage to do that but in government when we pass to Zimbabu as socialist party we say no that's not the way to go look at the banking system how many banks do we have in Zambia which as Zambian own the banking financial system we have less than 3% of the financial system to be very precise 2.2% of the financial system within the hands of the Zambian people yasa la uesima bank niyama foreigners zandaram as well allow Zambians to own these institutions to control these institutions and they are going to have a larger stake we believe as socialist party that mama ini mulunganati pasani maewatu yajama minroz masuji la iti ma god ma diamond yaminia chokamu mama ini yafini kashita benefit mama inas sumam veransoni wa sami waka endaku mufumbi sumam veransoni wa sami waka endaku mufumbi sumam veransoni wa sami waka endaku that kuhuriwa yama places kumini kuchoka god kumini kuchoka diamond sumam veransoni but he is a contrast for him as long as ma zungu wa diamo for him it's okay ma zungu wa diamo contrast for him it's okay ma Zambian people he has nothing to do with you kwa yujin even just a simple thing ma president waka indesamichi man didis I want to talk to him directly wasa mochi inje waka endaku ma zungu waka pasha wama zungu mo niwa manja waka boi na kuhuriwa blaksi waka vara ma bloves why? nishi setina doti o tizamu doa disani let's open up the phone lines come right in get to hear from our listeners as well Runa in double seven six two four two seven zero is the number that you are using to get through to us this edition of live issues is what you are listening to my guest this morning is Socialist Party Deputy Secretary General Mister Antonio Mourinho Manza is my guest so let's get to engage this one here as our first caller good morning yes sir good morning good morning who do we have on the line I'm okay morning sir thanks for the report na wana monga ito natiwa he ma praise the seal na muka zinka na muka zinka na Kosiri please go ahead in the next two minutes wrap up your submission being the best place I want to remind Antonio Mwanda the day when he was residing from Batojik Frans he said I had to put my right full shopping board to decide to ride in Batojik Frans and to jag any scam now to propagate life are you not aware Antonio Mwanda you are so active so far government in this thing they have this thing 30% of the compound I can think government got to know that I think that there is no future let me just ask a question let me just ask a question hello hello hello hello hello let's be together hello you know I want to ask him when you're on radio you're talking at least when I'm trying to engage you have a listen as well that way it will make sense in our conversation because even as you're making a point there are times when maybe my guest here wants to respond to you direct so that we can engage each other I just wanted to ask him a very simple question when were the contracts for Fetalins are given and who gave those contracts hello good morning good morning good morning thank you sir comrade Mwanda good morning morning comrade yeah this is comrade Mwanda yes comrade please go ahead yeah really I'm very worried I thought when you told the Zambian people and they tried to say they were defending rise they were defending rise and the things that are not defendable and if they I thought you stopped and you repented but my surprise is that even today you continue to own the same project you are talking about the tax evasion when you read the statement here the post in his paper was closed because of the same tax evasion he was not think that if anything is one of the people that contributed but is that the people going through in this country because he was not think and he had a very big company posted in his paper so now really I wonder how Antonia Mwanda extend yourself to the security who talk about who have been in this country you are the people that in this regime and the continuity on the path of destruction destroying this country under PF and because they found an umbrella or those materials in the Sojournist Party you think you can win people or change the mind of the people I think you need to be serious we are not interested when everyone people they have freedom now they are able to to decide the government and to tell the government what they want you know what happened in Mandevo people have taken to Pamela telling them to defend the people so that's what we do today because in Mandevo we are not interested and we need to change the government we need to change what they want is comrade imposha no comrade don't go comrade are you still there comrade imposha your full names imposha osamu kosa osamu kosa oska so you are saying was involved in tax evasion we follow you up after this program for you to go and explain the tax evasion allegations we follow you up don't worry we follow you up we prove in the completed court of law that you are using to get through

Antonyo manza, all this is what you are saying. Are you imagining me or maybe you are dreaming? You talked of the IMF. Now the conditions of the IMF are like this and this and this. This is the reason why you see the UPND are doing this. This is the reason why the price of the commodities are high because of the IMF conditions. Are you serious and you believe it that that is true? This is the reason why the high cost of living is because of the IMF. Mu lo tao ka penanchi rumga mocha, mi nemu ka bada Antonyo manza. Because no more, no more, no more. These all allegations you are talking Mr. Antonyo manza, are they true? Or maybe you are just dreaming or imagining that this could be happened because of this and this. These were happening because of this. Or maybe you are talking it through your experience, from what you experience under the TF when you borrowed money from these borrowers. Antonyo manza, already you are implicating someone into your program because of who? A kambaudino of a member, he is going to chan chan chan minuwa kumakambira. Why following him up and down? Musee, nini kula chewa mi na tuu maweo. Va mi na kambasa na tuu kane, imu maende mi kaka ribansim kafunse baritawa ni mawebo tuu. Muzee kuna kongore, amne mi zogure tan leta ni ma pfu. Because you were there, you saw it. Va mi na mi na chimbakambira. Zokamba madingi bariba Freddie Mmbi. Pankani amatak, cities gotia na interpuanjaja, mankani zahozit. Now you want to follow what they call. I be so bad. Tell what people I expect you to tell them. And then muha kambaudi pa presidenti, waga galapachi limba, wa unka zizimia TV. Why the main point? What are you trying to create, Mr. Antonio Mwanza? Why telling people to switch up the TV station when the president is imu interestia na politics, interestia wa tuu. Ma mene svari politics ya. So you should stop doing that. We are inciting violence. Thank you. Muha kambuanji, muha kambuanji, ma mene mure, wuku tumira kumuktola kuchibongo. Ma mwanza singi me muntu wa mene tifuna muhamu zambia. Mkani ama politics ya. Mkani wa ntwo chi nja. You are a brother to every zambian. But the way you attack the president, mba zambira bansi so even to fina mo. Fetlaiza mpaifu tensorandira. Fetlaiza mpaifu march februari. But muha mpaifu tibu mtawa ya chedo. Ya siya na buanji. Difference muha fetlaiza tensorandira. Next month, within this month, tiya mpaifu sama depositi ya pa. Kuhu muha kuchibongo kaya kuni naku. So ma mnaza, kani muntu wa ntwo chi nja. Mga mwenda pa radio mutenderi. Usa zubu Korani. Usa uko rei ni mutenderi. Kazimkara na mutenderi. Free bunubu inu mma melewa mkani naman tu bansi. Tifu kwa chamelewa mkana, wokamba kamba, usa baira so. Kuchitaa kiyuza ya presidentu. Tifu kwa chamelewa melewa mkani. Karani mwantwo changes. We'll put a hod to those submissions and I'll let you respond. Thank you. First of all, let me say thank you to all those that have called and those that have taken time to make voice notes. Let me start with the last voice note. When he says mutenderi wakukola and you know what he tries to mean is that we should be attacked and we should be intimidated and this has been the line even from their president. President of UPND and the president of the Republic of Zambia Mr. Hakain Desamehichilem where he says that tizamba mingalato I want to tell you my brother that this country was liberated 60 years ago. There is no one whether president Hakain Desamehichilem or any other president that will hold us captive or threaten, intimidate and calm us down. No. We are a democracy and we have a right to debate we have a right to contradict we have a right to oppose and we will not stop. So there is no amount of intimidation or violence or even killing that can stop us from talking on behalf of the Zambian people. As long as the poverty levels keep on rising as long as the cost of living keeps on rising as long as the youth and employment keeps on rising as long as the losses in terms of the billions of dollars we are losing from the mining sector keeps on going up we will not stop talking and we will not be intimidated because we cannot be intimidated Zambia is a free country a democracy and we will not be scared of anybody whether you are a president or whether you are a cadre whether you are a thug you cannot intimidate us There is no point in any Zambian to waste his time listening to lies when the president comes the people of Zambia must tell them the truth of what his government is doing the measures is putting in place to respond to the high cost of living and he has to tell the Zambians what his policies are on agriculture on education on health, on mining on infrastructure and on all other sectors of the economy people are dying in Maospitu because Mulebe Mankwala and you expect me to sit here and encourage people to be watching president Aga indesa michi nama fawad when to kulebe fertilize you expect us to be chairing him on radio and TV fawad youths have no jobs and you expect us as opposition political leaders to be chairing him up fawad so yes I want to repeat it is pointless it is a waste of time listening to a leader who is not telling the people of Zambia the truth he told you he told you he told you he told you he told you he told you he told you he told you he told you transport transport to Lipati those are lies that Zambians should not waste their time on I want to talk about this super central ma super central go to the website of IMF go to the website of Ministry of Finance go and read a report that has been done by action aid Zambia on the implication of the IMF on the standard of living of the Zambian people if you were a hero ya doula what do you say when that why IMF extracted your government to remove subsidies of fuel as a condition why IMF extracted your government to bring back VAT as a condition the IMF extracted your government to bring back excess duties as a condition and that's the reason why the price of fuel has gone up those are facts because they are anger IMF has said we have to phase out pharma input support program this input to say ma pharma is in muma minzum because this security is 1,300 what's the implication of high cost of fuel it's a high cost of transport small amount of money because I'm a bus who has caused all those things are they not the conditions of the IMF in 1996 when we started pursuing the

So, they are just praising us, praising uptendi, insha'alam, siko, wa ntua fukikawunga nifiyan rate, pepta safari, and the uptendi is doing nothing. Look at the economy is poor, but president wa indama trips, kwa 55 trips emukambai. Nothing is happening, and somebody from Chituriko, kwa Chituriko, ule supporta, ule take kubufiliwe. Naba fidwa, Antonio Mwanza, kipupu, sapochi, wambembe, God bless you, Antonio Mwanza. Alright, comrade, we have about two minutes before we arrive. Two minutes, yes. You allowed people to say a lot of things, which two minutes would not be easy. Let's conclude, let's conclude. But let me just be quick. First of all, we are grateful as a party that you've given us a chance to be here, and thanks a lot to everybody who has called and all those that have sent voice notes. I want to start with Wama Paolo. I totally agree with you and thanks for that support. We have been in politics long enough, and I was in UPND for seven years. Many of the people in UPND, I know them, they are my colleagues and so on and so forth. I am never a cheater, so I have been in callers. I have been in line-up for months. This is a strategy that doesn't work. You get callers, you get 5 kwacha, 5 kwacha, you get to talk to them, you know, you are socialists, you are on the radio, you go and attack them. Those strategies, they don't work. It's a waste of time. Honorable Secretary General Oimenda, Shinjeniko strategy, East strategy, Yamusande, Brother Namanda, the same guys who put the Musovali Pamoz, Brother Namanda, Zampeza, Paipaest, Pakimon, Paigna Masunguruka, there is nothing that is doing. Ibaankala Sovarika group, matumama phone. Sova Pasana phone, kasi tiza, iwo 2 manaiwe, iwo 2 manaiwe, iwo 2 manaiwe. Maa waza na vochita. Those things, they don't work. The people outside there, the millions of the Zambians, are feeling hungry. Those are the issues I end up with president. You see that sheet on 226. These things don't work. The president has to deal with the fundamental issues affecting the people. Hunger, unemployment, poverty, high cost of living. Those are issues the president should be dealing with. Not this to my games. It will not help you. Brother Namanda and your team, let me just very quickly say this. I've spent 23 years of my life in politics and public life. I've spent 20 years of those 23 years in opposition. 20 years of my 23 years I've spent it in opposition. If I wanted to eat, I would have been working with ruling parties. I would have joined the MMD, I would have joined the PF, when they were in power. I would have joined the UPND. I've spent 20 years of my 23 years in politics fighting for the common Zambian. I'm in opposition. So, in your story, I'm saying that I can't rise. This is in kaniam kachasu. Because if I wanted to go to the UPND, I would have joined the PF. They are failed to provide the solutions to the challenges the Zambian people are facing. So, this is not about me. As I told you once, no, forget. It's about government failing to provide the solutions, the economic and social challenges the people are facing. And I would like to conclude in this fashion. Here are the lies that Brother Namanda talks about. One, according to Brother Namanda and his colleagues, ungano chipa. Mwaospeito mulimanguana, according to them, transportinio chipa, according to them, life is emotional. I feel sorry for Eugene that if I look at Monsange, Uyusa Vimbi, Uyubra Thanamanda, you'll go and see where they are living. Musen vera jifundu hem. But here they are calling me because I was passing 5 kwaja It's a shame. I want to conclude by saying this. The Socialist Party is offering a solution to the social and economic challenges the Zambian people are facing. The Socialist Party is aware that we are aware we are because we are not in charge of our economy. We are aware we are as a country because we are not in charge of human and capital as well as natural resources. And the Socialist Party says vote for yourselves. Let us build the Zambia where the economy is in the hands and control of the Zambian people. Let the Zambians control the banking and finance sector. Let the Zambians control the agricultural sector. Let the Zambians control the educational sector. Let the Zambians control the mining sector, the production sector. That's what the Socialist Party is offering. A complete paradigm shift from an economy which is controlled by westerners, foreigners to a Zambian economy controlled by the Zambian people themselves. That's alternative which we want. We want businesses to be run and controlled by the Zambians. We want Zambians to be the ones supplying and contracting government loans, government contracts. We want contracts to be run by the Zambians, not by foreigners. We want to be run by the Zambians, not by foreigners. We want business to be run by the Zambians, not by foreigners. That is what the Socialist Party stands for. We look at everybody as a stakeholder. But you as a Zambian, you can't go to America and control the American economy. You can't go to China and control the Chinese economy. They can't allow you. So vice versa, they shouldn't be here and control our economy. We have surrendered our economy to the IMF. We have a president and a political party that has got no economic plan. They have got no social and political plan. We have a government that has failed to provide solutions. So it doesn't matter, you must try to do the math, you must try to do math, you must try to do math. Those things can't wake. Those things others have tried them, they don't wake. We were in power, we tried those things, they don't wake. Munda na njala iri pa grahu ntiapa. Mui e indai.
