Zambia Has No Future

It has taken me time to accept the fact that my country has no future. No matter how much we try to think of a way that we can have a future, reality hits in the face that, frankly, we don't!

Maybe I should be told by someone who thinks of how we have that future and what we can do to get back in line and move forward. Right now, I have reasons that make me know day by day, that we have no future.

• We must be in a position to define what we have and the path we will take to get what we don't have. Simply stated, if he wish to develop economically, we need to understand what economically viable strategies that we have to reach that development and clearly show what we will do in order to get what we don't have to reach our goals. We have nothing worth talking about. I would be the most hidden minister in MMD government as with my pride to be in midst of people talking about what they are doing about their country when we have done nothing. And any effort to attain some of these things, we really met by the likes of VJ inelections. So doom is the word!
  
• We must be led by people of substance and who can drive us in a developmental direction. Well, unless we dropped the meaning of substance, we can try to rig our leaders through. But as it stands, they know very little about the difference between a rock and water. So that direction can't be reached either.
  
• We must have institutions that will move in the direction that people want to move in collectively. These institutions will provide the base for any activity in the country and ensure the good is what we get out of them. We have mirrors of such institutions. They claim to exist but they do the opposite of what we want. Like they are watching in a mirror, or they have no idea why they exist! These institutions are so vital that even if the two above are not there, the system will move and will reach the goals just maybe abit slower than normal. The police, judiciary and parliament are so useless, they would pass a motion on anything which will see them get mid-term gratuate and not see justice done in a country. So again this is a no-go area.
  
• Finally, we must have organisations to alert us of any wrong doing in government for us to know what we should do and then take corrective measures. We only have the Post, which we the people even help government in insulting when they uncover something. They try yes, but things could have been better if we the people stood up and stopped any form of silencing from government. We need to protect the only system which seem to be alive in the country - but then again, for how long?

All in all, I see doom in all things that would help in bringing in goodness in any country. Corruption starts in the first house. Injustice is led by the first family. Silencing starts with the ruling government. Should we wait until we go to civil-war to wake. Zambians we are damn dead in all we do. We are only good at drinking and talking after that. What type of a country will watch what nonsense is brought about by a government before we react? Can a president really thank people for accepting corruption verdict and we just smile about it? What sort of brains do we have that wont fight for justice at all levels? Martin Luther once said "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere" - I guess he never knew of a dull country like Zambia which would smile about injustice and go on with daily business. How did we even chase the British from this land. Maybe they just left after seeing the dullness we displayed. We have been the most peaceful and yet the most fooled of all people in this world. We couldn't even protest after such total robbery of National resources. I would not have talked had we the resources that we could recover from. But we lost resources that would have built this country and provided good roads and hospitals. But all that went into some short man's shoes. The judge even thought he was a 'man' by acquitting him. He does not that in some countries such acts are only associated it monkeys and uncivilised characters not worth being in a court room.

Yet in Zambia, such men are praised for being fair! To who? Who have they been fair to. Can you imagine some Union leader even said Chiluba has been tortured long enough since the trial started? You are a fool to forget Chiluba locked up Kaunda for no reason. Kaunda too now deserved it after supporting RB in this nonsense. Maybe if they burnt his beard, he would have had the time to tell Zambians that this man is leading us to the gravel. But maybe the big man is cheap too these days.

But obviously the truth is, we are doomed and have no future. Go to europe and have a life or sink with this African country
