If you were a wealthy father and had a prodigal son, you should not be deemed to be cruel if you deny him any help and he becomes destitute. The PF government led by the humble one, have brought this upon themselves. They have squandered the estate on infrastructure that has no bearing on the immediate economy. We could have done without bypasses but with a viable Nitrogen Chemicals of Zambia producing cheaper fertiliser. We could have done without white elephant hospitals, but a viable Mulungushi textile adding value to our cotton. We could have done without hundreds of houses for security personnel, but empowering them with subsidised mortgages to buy and build on their own. We could have done without Kafue hydro, but with new solar power all over the country…

Even if IMF, on whatever basis, extends them this debt what PF has shown is the incapacity, inability & unwillingness to fiscal management. PF govt does not have a clue to manage money or grow an economy. Full stop. If IMF gives them this debt, it will just be for elections. After that it will be all down hill

Sober mindedness for its own sake is meaningless.

Botswana, by the way is spending and saving at the same time in their $6 Billion Pula Fund. Spending and saving are not mutually exclusive. You just need smart people like the leader in Botswana.

Mr. Kanyama, yours is a rather incomplete analysis. You want IMF relief money in the hands of people whose biggest claim to success is infrastructure spending, yet we owe for the Kazungula Bridge to the point where the contractor had to stop work? The Indian funded infrastructure claimed, without shame, a result of their genius, the lot who must pay back money they illegally and greedily grabbed for themselves because they feel more deserving than other Zambians? People who, in the 11th hour, have found the energy and resources to cover the country in monetary donations and bribery schemes reaching into millions.

We all know who benefits from the money lent to Zambia. And it is not citizens outside top government officials.

Our leaders can not account what they did with the Euro bonds or other loans.

We even have cadres that previously worked as lab cleaners now opening up clothing brands in Switzerland, even owning a jet.

We also have those that stole from a widow, and were peeviousky always seen drinking in shanties. Now they own mansions in Swaziland and sponser terrorism.
