Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>Coming from a celebrated hat-trick, Rangers Football Club striker, Fashion Sakala has said he admired President Hakainde Hichilema because he came from a humble background and rose to the lofty position of Head of State.<\/p>\n

He said he admired the resilience of Mr. Hichilema as despite the numerous electoral losses over the years, he never gave up until he scored electoral victory and won.<\/p>\n

Sakala also expressed gratitude to President Edgar Lungu and the previous government for the work they did but said President Hichilema has succeeded them to take the country to higher place.<\/p>\n

Sakala also expressed gratitude for the national budget presented to Parliament by Minister of Finance, Dr. Situmbeko Musokotwane and urged the President to ensure that maximum economic benefits went to the young people that voted for him.<\/p>\n

He said young people were hopeful that their welfare will improve under the leadership of President Hichilema. Sakala also brought gifts of a scarf, jersey and balls from Rangers FC as memorabilia for President Hichilema\u2019s visit to Scotland.<\/p>\n
