BLOGERS ANALYSE TWO FRONT RUNNERS IN THE JANUARY 20 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION ON HH, Delilah moono writes: First of all, let us look at why people are suggesting HH. The assumption is that he is a successful businessman and will definately change the economy. This is only an assumption. A businessman is successful only because they consider the interest of the business, that is profits and more investments. An economist is a worst kind of leader when it comes to staff wellfare. They rarely give good emoluments. HH is a businessman and no one can change that. He is not a socialist, he does worry more about profits than increasing the monetary benefits of the masses. He is in for more of monetary gain than what people think. Edgar is a socialist. He is liked by people because he embraces all of them including the uneducated as seen by the overwhelming support he is getting. Let us open our eyes. HH has his own ambitions and that is to have more investments that is why he wants power. WAKE UP ZAMBIANS, I know you perceive him to be your solution to poverty but forget. Just take an analysis of this man. He owns 66 companies, how much does he pay his workers? Is he running charities. When people are sick and they want to be evacuated does he contribute anything. Does he help the poor? in which way. Please this is the starting point. Do not just look at his money. That is his he can never share it. Mamen responds: @Delilah Moono does your Socialist Edgar do any of those things? HH sponsors about 24 students at UNZA and other Universities, what about your Edgar? Is it not Edgar who chewed some money for his clients which led to LAZ suspending him? HH donates alot of wheelchairs to the disabled, what about your Edgar? There is a saying that “show me your friends and I will tell you who you are”. By showing Edgar as your friend, I can tell that you are a failure in life. a thief, dishonest, visionless, clueless and lost. I would rather vote for a frog than Edgar. My vote is priceless, therefore I can only do the wise thing. Vote for progress and prosperity. Those who want stability and probably a downward spiral, you are free to go with one Edgar Lungu (or is it Edka as Bembas would say). I have decided to move forward. Thankyou! Iyeee chips in and writes: My friend you hardly know this man, how much is a wheel chair? There are so many NGOs, not so rich individuals, who donate these so called wheel chairs today in our country today and we do not sing praises to that. You want to vote somebody to republican presidency on the strength of donating wheel chairs and sponsoring 24 students at UNZA? You must be sick and out of your mind, grow up. What governing experience has your so called HH have, answer is NONE AT ALL. Good at dancing in front of masses and making a fool of himself, and that’s your presidential material, HELL NO. kupo Hamungwamina joins: I have followed these debates keenly from outside the country.If I had two votes to cast this time around I would give my 2nd vote to Nawakwi for her well articulation of national issues.HH is the only answer.even if the late Sata were to be there, he wouldnot compare by far. Zambia with all its resources to be going backward in economic development all for lack of leadership competent enough to harness the country’s wealth for the good everyone. Sata made a lot of sense as an opposition leader but he could not make his own creation on developmental agenda for the country. EL would be worse off. Sata was a successful businessman hence his ability to sustain Our PF in opposition for many years. Tell me what our EL has done for himself? Zambia is bigger than all our patronage inclinations. That’s is why most of zambians find it pleasurable to go and shop outside the country. We have the power once again to change the course of the country by voting with our brains and not our emotions. Muntu Namuntu joins and writes: I wish professors could be given 500 ballots to cast, Doctors 450 ballots to cast, Masters Degree holders 400 ballots papers to cast, Degree holders 300 ballots, Advanced/Higher Diploma holders 50 ballots, Certificate Holders & G12 division one 2 ballots and the rest only 1 ballots to cast. This is just a wish . Honestly Prof Lugwangwa has only one vote count just as those cadres who beat each in the streest!! This is useless just as good as chasing the wind. Jacob Zume comes in, writes: - In 2001 I predicted that Mazoka is winning. My grandfather on his death bed argued that it is Mwanawasa who will carry the day. (The truth is not really known as to who really won 2001 ELECTIONS). – In 2006 I predicted that Mwanawasa is winning going by how he worked in his first term. Though I did not see him win in 2001 and he did. – In 2008 I predicted that RB is carrying the day going by how he handled the transition period and he did. – In 2011 despite predicting for him in 2008 I predicted that PF Sata is winning solely because of how he himself RB messed his chances, and Sata did. – NOW I AM PREDICTING AGAIN TO ALL ZAMBIANS HH IS WINNING THESE ELECTIONS. COME 2015 YOU WILL DEFINITELY REMEMBER THIS COMMENT. DONT HATE THE PLAYER, HATE THE GAME. Blago chips in responds to Jacob, writes: Very poor analysis. Sata won the 2011 elections for 3 main factors. 1. He had been building his support base for two years. 2. With his good oratory tactics Sata made outrageous promises which people believed. 3. MMD messed- up big time, and so people where looking for a savior, with Sata`s oratory ability, the voters looked to him as a savior (action-man). The question is; does Edgar Lungu fit or resonate in the 3 factors, I doubt. My view is that, the elections will be determined in the 3 provinces, that is, Northern, Muchinga and Luapula, in that, loss or win for Lungu will depend on what percentage of votes HH gets in these 3 provinces. Lusaka and Copperbelt will be tricky for PF this time around. If I was HH I`ll focus my campaign in Muchinga, Northern, Luapula, Lusaka rural and copperbelt Rural. The debate goes on zambianeye/archives/26837#comments
