Africa-Press – Zambia. If the purchase of the Presidential Jet was a scam, the intended resale is a far bigger scam Amb. Emmanuel Mwamba wrote; The presidential jet, the G650 Gulfstream was valued at factory price of $65million at its launch (and now factory price cost $73million because of its world-wide demand).
Zambia bought one with upgrades and military secure installations which price allegedly shot to $193million. President Hakainde Hichilema says the entire scheme was just a corrupt way to siphon money using the purchase of the Jet.
Now he is selling the jet far below the $65million, and a big loss to the $193million purchase price earlier paid. Wasn’t it going to be prudent to keep the plane? If we have suffered a loss of $193m already? Why would the plane be given away? Who is he giving it away to?
