…It’s For News Purposes, Nothing Will Happen
Emmanuel Mwamba says what President Hakainde Hichilema said at the funeral of former Minister and FDD leader Edith Nawakwi is all rhetoric.
Mwamba who speaks for the biggest opposition in Zambia PF and the opposition grouping Tonse Alliance says the talk was for camera / news purposes.
Some Zambians have called Hichilema as Bashi Promise (Father of Promises) because of his unfulfilled promises.
He talks the sweet nothings, Harry Kalaba another opposition leader talks of Hichilema.
Mwamba writes:
It’s all Rhetoric
President Hakainde Hichilema calls for dialogue.
I know its an empty call. For example, at similar previous functions, President Hakainde Hichilema has always said he needs to talk to his predecessor, former President Edgar Lungu and asked the church to help.
NGOCC took his words so seriously that they thought they could follow up on his proposal and actually arrange the talks..
They later realised, like many others have, that President Hichilema engages in mere rhetoric, good words for ZNBC news, words for temporal self-gratification.
Now he is calling for dialogue with the Opposition. I bet you its mere rhetoric.
