Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>PF cadres terrorised Zambians like a bank of kamoto dragons, says George Mpombo. Describing President Hakainde Hichilema\u2019s one year in office, Mpombo who served as former defence minister under Levy Mwanawasa said there has been a galore of failures in Hichilema\u2019s leadership.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile the President has scored high marks on curbing political caderism which under PF terrorised people like a bank of kamoto dragons, however, they have had a galore of failures in other critical spheres like foreign policy which has been a higgledy-piggledy affair,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mpombo noted that Zambia has had robust and versatile Pan Africanist policy and always took common stand with other SADC members. He said the recent unilateral decisions taken by Zambia at the UN against Russia was a blunder of proportions.<\/p>\n

\u201cWest nations took likeward stance during the apartheid in South Africa minority rule. They refused to supply arms to the liberation movement but are supplying arms to Ukraine with shocking alacrity,\u201d he said. \u201cThrowing both Russia and China in great faux pas and has serious and grave consequences.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mpombo recalled that China and Russia sustained Zambia during \u201cdifficulty and horrendous times\u201d. On the economic front, he said under President Hichilema the sector is in a tail spin \u201cand a drip\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cDirect investment inflows are down while the manufacturing sector is lying prostate.\u201d On agriculture, Mpombo said the sector has been \u201c\u2026 due to calamitous policies like late and sluggish tendering of farming inputs.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said ethinic hegemoniety appointments in government and foreign service is a far cry to the building of an all inclusive society. \u201cSharing of key cabinet appointment is dangerously lopsided, including senior appointments in government and parastatal bodies,\u201d said Mpombo.<\/p>\n
