Hey you lot baying for the 1st Lady’s head….just look at the comments. Aren’t you the ones seeking to polarise the Zambian nation. I mean look who’s talking, some comments written in Bemba! C’mon now isn’t that downright tribalistic arrogance assuming everyone speaks and understands the language? Aren’t people forgetting the Eastern province, that is, Chipata is one of the forgotten towns in the country despite its people being one of the industrious people in the country? You couldn’t even get descent public toilets even in Zambia’s heydays! Local transport poor although its people known to travel long distances. If anything, I reckon the churches there should take most of the credit for the progress made there.

Ka K4 million is nothing to talk about. What is K4 million if it is a change for DORA? Now imagine thats the money they give to 1000 households, what a joke?

As already pointed out by some bloggers, why is it that every time you hear about charity donations from this family (Thandi and company) it is almost always to some entity in the Eastern Province?!!!

I am sure this issue seems trivial to some, but as president and first lady, their domain should be the entire country. Guess what, like it or not, people have started noticing this seeming bias from the first family. Which is not very health for our ONE ZAMBIA ONE NATION that the wise man KK worked so hard to foster in our country.

Next time let us hear you donated to some charity in Shakumbila, madam!!!!!!!!

Am so upset after reading this article but i will keep my calm. Anyways why should we waste tax payers money by transporting reporters camera men and the the MP herself to go and donate K4 million? Am sure the cost of donating that K4 million was more than the donation itself. Why didn’t the first lady quietly donate that $858.35 USD (as per today’s rate). And by the way did she really donate that money from her own pocket, i would like to see her bank statement showing the withdraw of that money from her account. The bible says let not your right know what your left hand is doing. And funny enough even churches are going on TV nowadays when they make a donation! I praise the Jehovah’s Witnesses in this area for their quiet and silent help to the poor people.
