THATS WHY YOU HAVE TO WORK AND WORK BCOS YOU CANT MAKE A SAVING AND THATS WHY YOU ALWAYS LOOK FOWARD TO YOUR NEXT PAYCHEK. WHEN YOU STAY AWAY FROM WORK FOR ONE MONTH BILLS WILL PILE THATS WHY WHEN YOU COME FOR HOLIDAY KU ZED YOU WANT TO GO BACK VERY FAST BCOS YOU SOON EXHAUST YOUR MONEY USING DEBT CARD. PA ZED IN OUR OWN WAY WE MANAGE AND THATS HOW COME WE DONT RENT HOUSES BUT BUILD OUR OWN WE DONT HIRE PURCHASE CARS WE BUY OUR OWN CASH

How can you say that someone who migrates to the UK and earns £150k per year is no better off than a Consultant at UTH? How can you say that a nurse who earns £30k per year is no better off than a nurse at UTH? Is the quality of life better in the UK? Yes. Will you have access to better and free education and healthcare? Yes.

DO YOU EXPECT PATIENTS TO BE SENT BACK HOME WHEN THE BEDS ARE FULL HELL NO THEY WILL BE ADMITTED AND GIVEN FLOOR BEDS. FLOOR BEDS HAVE NOT COME TODAY BCOS EVEN IN KK ERA WE HAD THEM. UTH ISNT LIKE A HOTEL OR PRIVATE HOSPITALS WERE THEY TURN YOU AWAY WHEN FULL. GOOD ENOUGH LUSAKA HOSPITAL WILL OFFER A LONG TERM SOLUTION THEN WE HAVE HEALTH CADRES WHO WE TRAIN AT HUGE COST RUNNING AWAY TO BECOME ECONOMIC REFUGEES YET THE ARE SUBJECTED TO SAME CONDTIONS WEREVER THEY GO NO IMPROVEMENT IN LIFESTYLE.

He was referring to diagnostic machines such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the computerised tomography (CT) scanning equipment.’ There is no way in a billion years that the equipment would have cost billions of dollars!

If this is correct we expect this nonsense of sending some special people to SA for knee check-ups at tax payers expense.
