WELL, IT'S SADDENING TO SEE HOW MUCH TRAUMA THE FORMER PRESIDENT OF ZAMBIA IS GOING THROOUGH BASED ON ALLEGATIONS SHOWERED ON HIM. BUT FOR GOD'S SAKE, WERE PEOPLE NOT SEEING THESE THINGS HAPPENIMG DURING HIS TENURE OF OFFICE, OR IS IT THE ASPECT OF IMMMUNUTY THAT SHIELDED HIM FROM BEING CORNERED? IN ANY CASE, THE LAW CAN TAKE ITS COURSE BUT IT MUST NOT BIND HIS HAND AGAINST A POLE WHEN HE DOES NOT DESERVE IT. LET THE OLD MAN ENJOY HIS PENSION IN PEACE, BUT IF HE HAS THE CASES TO ANSWER, WHY DRAG THEM FOR SO LONG A TIME?LET US BE OBJECTIVES AT TIMES.

All ministers during his time should be prosecuted for not speaking out, Including those now in the opposition.

if there's evidence that chiluba stole money them he needs to go to jail.this circle of stelling the nations money by some people in power need to stop.they say that when elephants fight, its the grass that suffers.indeed the zambian people aree suffring because of a few selfish people pock that which belong to the nation.what's wrong with some of our leaders, they all make me sick, how i pray that all those that have laid there dirty hand on the nation's property live to see the rath of God
