@HHichilema Indeed, learning from past mistakes and crafting strategies/regulations not to repeat the mistakes and strategic advancement of economy and diplomatic/political relations will be meaningful in a global political economy that allows #Zambia and #Africa to participate equally.

As #Zambia we are responsible for the downgrade of our economy, we didn’t manage our affairs properly so we must accept that. 🇿🇲🇺🇸

Our heartfelt gratitude to @VP @KamalaHarris for coming back home to #Zambia with a message of hope for our nation. #ForthePeople #StrongerPartnerships #InvestmentForProsperity

No matter how far, how remote, you will be reached by a committed and caring Government. In Masansa, Mboshya, and Chembe in Luano District delivering relief supplies to communities devastated by adverse weather conditions and raising disaster risk awareness. #GodsWork

@HHichilema @ZescoL @Masdar Global South cooperation is a good strategy in contemporary politics for developing countries. Congratulation!

MoU & Joint Development Agreement signed today will see @ZescoL partner with @Masdar to develop large-scale solar projects across the country, starting with installation of 500MW. This unprecedented US$2billion capital injection shows strong investor confidence in #Zambia. #CMO

@HHichilema A beacon for hope in Zambia, wishing you a successful 2023 Mr President, I know you will do us proud.

When given an opportunity to provide leadership, let’s do what’s right. We’ll continue looking at archaic laws, including commercial laws that inhibit acceleration of economic growth & investments. We’ll do this in good faith because we mean well for #Zambia. #aBrighterFuture
