After Dora Siliya, Now it's Made in Zambia

After the Petition against Minister of Communication and Transport Dora Siliya was set up by the Chief Justice and it started sitting some weeks ago, now what can only happen in Zambia is the vogue.

There is some gentleman from Chongwe east of Lusaka who has asked the Chief Justice to set up a Tribunal against former finance minister under late President Levy Mwanawasa.

In the daily Post newspaper a joker has written that the column by Kalake has been suspended from publication pending another .... You have guessed right - prtition to be set up by the Chief Justice.

There is no doubt that Zambia is awash in corruption. It appears no deal involving government, private and parastatal companies can go through without money changing hands.

Unlike Madagascar that changes its presidents through street power - always institgated by Tana Mayors or former mayors - Zambia has its own system of absorbing the simmering heat of discontent.
