 Over the years, PF impact on a number of projects that have seen the capacity increase from 1,800 megawatts to about 3,100 megawatts. This increase in generation is not at the Karibadam alone. Yes, the Karibadam was upgraded to start producing more than it was producing. But we had the Kahfuelo Abodge. We had the Lumzuwa Hydro being upgraded. We had the Musondafoze being upgraded. We had the Shuangandu coming on board. We also had the Mamba Co-Fired plant coming on board. And a number of solar farms have since been constructed across the country. Which made the generation to move from 1,800 megawatts when PF came into Oshis to 3,100 class. As we speak now. Now, why should we experience six hours of Lord Shedding? When we have increased our capacity from 1,800 to 3,100. The reason is very simple. Government has prioritized exports of electricity to neighboring countries. That's just the reason. Yes, the water level in the Karibadam is a contributing factor. But we can have Lord Shedding for about an hour a day. Or to the most 2 hours a day. Looking at the other sources of power generation that the PF built over the years. It is there for a reasonable and unacceptable. In human, the meaning that the government can continue exporting electricity while it's citizens will suffer six hours of Lord Shedding. In any case, power exports or contracts involving exporting of electricity do have a provision which is known as a force major. A force major in a contract is a provision that allows you to terminate contracts of export of electricity if you are faced with a calamity or an act of God. In this case, the reason being advanced by those in government is that the water levels in the Karibadam are low. And if the water levels in the Karibadam are low, it simply means that we have got an act of God because we do not have control on the amount of rent so that we receive as a country. And also on the water levels in the Karibadam. Why is government failing to evoke the provision of the force major so that they can stop export of electricity and make sure that all the households in Zambia. By the way, generation of power in Zambia is meant to benefit the Zambians and not anybody else. The Zambians must be prioritized in making sure that they receive electricity. You cannot gross over electricity supply in an economy. You cannot gross over supply of fuel in an economy. Then you are going to kill the economy. Now I don't understand a government that is saying they are building the economy can allow a six hour Lord Shedding when they can simply evoke a force major to stop exporting electricity. To other countries so that our own economy can thrive. This government sometimes makes me sick and worried because of being inconsistent, because of being unreasonable. And reasonable in the sense that the same very things that they condemned are the same very things that they are inflicting on the Zambians today. When UPND was in opposition, when we had 1800 mark that underline the red pen, when we had generation capacity of 1800 and we had a serious drought, serious than we had last year, they told the people of Zambia that it was poor management, lack of foresight and poor political leadership. That's why we are having Lord Shedding of about four hours. Today they are in government. PF increased generation capacity from 1800 to 3100. They are introducing Lord Shedding for six hours. And for you Zambians, I feel sorry for you. I also feel sorry for myself and also for my children. Why do we accept majority? Why do we accept people to be lying with a straight face when we can say no to some of these things? I think by and large we need to say no to six hours of Lord Shedding because it's not just fire. It's not just fireable as long as we are exporting power to other countries. Why should we give people in other countries power when we don't have the power? Look, this economy of Zambia is largely dependent on small scale entrepreneurship. When you traverse the Kalimgarinda area, you see a number of boiler makers, welders, making gates, making water tanks and all kinds of fabricated equipment. Why do you want to be unfair to those boiler makers? Those small scale entrepreneurs? When you traverse the markets in Zambia, you find saloons, barbershops. That's how people are surviving. Are you not ashamed that you can leave those people nama barbershops, but we don't have to go to school, we don't have to go to the saloon in the meantime you are exporting power to neighboring countries. What kind of a government are you? What kind of people are you? We evoke a force major on a lot of the electricity exports. But this government has made it very clear through the minister we are not going to terminate or we are not going to stop exporting any electricity to the foreign customers that we are supplying now. Now do you know the reason? It is because this government is a government of liars by the liars for the liars. Today, they want to tell the whole world that the kwacha is the best performing currency in the world because the kwacha's exchange rate is very fictitious. Very fictitious indeed, flowery and cosmetic. And I'll tell you why. The Bank of Zambia just told us a few days ago that they have used, is it three, three point something million of, is it 300 million dollars? I'm not very sure of the figure, but the Bank of Zambia did tell us that they have been putting a lot of our foreign exchange on the market in order to cushion the exchange rate. Now for them to continue keeping that flower exchange rate, they need foreign exchange. Where are they going to get the foreign exchange? Because one, the production of kopa, which last year was 800,000 metric tons, is now 500,000 metric tons. Because miopan is not operating at full capacity, kongola kopa mines is not operating at full capacity. Now for them to make up to have more dollars in order to keep the fictitious exchange rate, they can't stop export of electricity. Because now their main foreign exchange ena is the excess electricity that PF brought on board that they are exporting. Now their fear is, if they stop the export of electricity, they will not get the foreign exchange. And if they don't get the foreign exchange, it simply means they will have no money to cushion the exchange rate. So the exchange rate will go up to over 20 kwacha to a dollar. So in trying to cover up their lives of saying they have maintained a stable exchange rate, they are now caught up in a way of their own. Wate enkosa kwaia ilobawemi. Asyo bachitili, wate enkosa kwaia ilobawemi. Because you need a lie to keep another lie and a lie to keep another lie. But when you are telling the truth, you will not have any problem. I don't see any reason, countrymen and women, why the minister can say we are not going to stop exports of electricity but in the meantime will give you six hours of load shading. When load shading started, we had 1,800 nw of electricity. Today we are generating 3,100. So if we have a problem at the Karibai, yes, we will have an effect. And that's what I'm saying, the effect should be not more than two hours of load shading. The load shading should be about an hour or two hours. Look, do you know what the six hours translates into the small scale entrepreneurs who use electricity? And by the way, almost all small scale entrepreneurs use electricity. If you switch off electricity at 7 o'clock, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, you come and switch off at 13 hours. And no waking day is eight hours. So you left this small scale entrepreneurs with only two to three hours of operation before they close their shops, workshops or whatever. Now, how do you expect them to make ends meet? How do you expect them to make profit? Maewamuninani, maewamuninani. In Endalanda, Nakabinende Fokulanda. Uwutungulushi, leadership is about caring for the poor people. Governance is not a business. Governance is provision of social services, making sure that all the citizens, particularly the poor people, are able to afford basic needs of life. Now, if your six hours load shading will kill the small scale entrepreneurs who are in the majority, then you are killing the whole country. You are killing the engine of the country which is a business or indeed commerce and trade. Maewamuninani wa kapala. Wakalambaba ni wa pita kapala. We were neighbors in case people don't know. Pita kapala baleikala pa 39, Zaone Avenu, Paribahulushi. Foto aleikala pa 40, Yaro Avenu. Wai Avenu. Mu Yaro Namu Zaone is the next road. Aba eche bavo, the late Pita Kapala was my friend Jeff Kapala, Jeff Chiwe, Ustili Lusaka are my friends. But I think, Wakapala, you can do better. We're going to launch at every two hours. Wakalambaba ni save the people, make decisions that are going to save your mother here at the farm, S-Bend. We have to say, that's where your father's farm is, for Pita. Namuaba shimisha ma light six hours. She didn't go for a take-up at the farm. Paribahashimu wa pita. Shalach na survival shal. Imonmua ministerimu wa distako genset. Iyabutina. Parapafam pa mene nga ma lighting. Now the cost of fuel is so high, that even those people with gensets, they cannot run their businesses profitably because the cost of diesel, the cost of petrol has gone up from the time PF left office, from 17 kwacha pelita to 28 kwacha pelita. So you can see that the cost of doing business when Lord Shaving started in 2014 was much lower than it is now. And any attempt to Lord Shave the people for six hours or let me just say, to Lord Shave the people for more than two hours to kill the poor people. Mwewa mminginane na papata. Kwa tene kwen kumbu. Ushikanshe government yaba business mania. Kusaka manase business. Mwakanu kusaka manemi karele yaba nitu. Emi sango enu iene. Mwewa mminginane. Kwa tene noluse please. Ma ilo. Tomorrow you are starting Lord Shaving. Please vaka pala. Please by UPND government reduce the hours of Lord Shaving to two hours. There is no justification whatsoever. Stop the exports of electricity. Enforce the force maja and stop lying to the people of Zambia all the time. Show them the true reflection of the exchange rate. Set out the issues at Mopani. Set out the issues at KCM so that kopa production can go back to 800,000 metric tons per annum.
