Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>says investigating and arresting Zambians for merely buying a vehicle and owning property is wrong Hon. Bowman Chilosha Lusambo has called for an end to the mentality of begging.<\/p>\n

Lusambo is former Minister for Lusaka Province. He said it is sad that when a Zambian buys a \u201cvehicle\u201d, he becomes subject to investigations from the Anti-Corruption Commission. Hon Lusambo said such is a poverty mentality which the country must eradicate and start being proud when a Zambian has Money.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Zambia, for one to have $50,000 is a crime. Bushe inchito yesu yalaba ukulya Ubwali na kapenta, how are we going to live like that?? We will not allow Zambia to become a begging country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Lusambo said there is need for the Zambian people to start benefiting from the mines. He said if is sad that the economy in regions such as the Copperbelt Province which is rich in natural resources is in ICU.<\/p>\n

Hon Lusambo said the situation on the copperbelt requires an urgent attention from the Government. He has also encouraged the Government to consult with the Zambian people when dealing with the IMF.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wanted IMF to have the full disclosure they had with our government, they refused to tell us. Even the government failed to give the people of Zambia the full disclosure. Now we have seen that IMF and other creditors have pulled out from the deal. Those boys and girls in Washington are not our friends, they just want to come and rip the resources from the people of Zambia,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe economy is very bad. Our job as politicians is to help the people. If the people re suffering. Then what is the job of the politicians. The people on the copperbelt are still suffering. We want this government to pay attention to that region. We have a lot of resources in that part of the country. We want the Zambians to have money.\u201d<\/p>\n
