Patriotic Front party information and publicity chairman Raphael Mangani Nakachinda says President Hakainde Hichilema should wake up from slumber and start honouring the promises he made to the Zambian people.
Addressing the media in Lusaka, Mr. Nakachinda said President Hichilema should now realize that he is the Head of State.
He said that now that the cabinet is complete and parliament opened, people’s expectations are very high.
And Mr. Nakachinda said President Hichilema’s did not have anything to tell the people of Zambia and the speech to parliament was a speech of wishes.
He said the Head of State should have used the day to bring to life the cocktail of promises he made prior to the August 12, general elections.
“Now that the Cabinet is complete and parliament is opened expectations are very high. I am shocked that the speech to parliament was full of repetition and difficult for stakeholders to follow. The speech never met expectations and will make it difficult for parliamentarians to debate,” Hon. Nakachinda said.
“The Head of State plagiarized former President Edgar Lungu’s speeches which he questioned that never carried directives but nothing has changed,” Hon. Nakachinda said.
” We expected the President to direct the minister of education to implement the free education as per promise,” he said.
