Braamfontein, Johannesburg.SA. IN 2011 , over 2,000,000 Egyptians gathered for days at Cairo governorate’s square El-Tahrir, the center stage of the Egyptian Revolution bringing Hosni Mubarak’s government to a grinding halt.  This is following his 29-year-reign as head of office.  The result of the forthright collective voice was remarkable and through the revolution. Egypt finally held democratic elections to replace Mubarak and Mohamed Morsi was elected president. Today, this is referred to a power monger or clinging to power .   Since 2011, Africa has experienced ups and downs in terms of politics via ballot box. The simmering political situation in a tiny country in the Great Lakes region is a reminder to all that we should learn from brothers and sisters in Burundi.  Since their president Pierre Nkurunziza was returned to power for a third term by a limited pool of voters, over 400 deaths in a political violence have been reported and...

ZAMBIAN TRIBALISM IS VIA ELECTION, EMPLOYMENT… EVEN IF education is free the cat will never go to the school as the cat. Mollycoddle for all Zambian on how tribalism is giving out as if it not one Zambia, one Nation. Indeed, we have wrestled several times with own tribal demons. We have never been quick to try to address the guts of tribalism and nepotism that still runs strongly through our veins.  Too soon, we forget all contentedly that our forefathers fought for freedom, unity, and peace we endure today as they made their lonely and heartbreaking feelings during independency struggle. Yes, we have re-paid it in some cases with our open hatred, violence and in others with blind indifference more especially during elections instant.  Ben Wattenberg once recounted that what’s real in politics is what the voters decide is REAL. We have even with our own naked eyes how voting lines indicates regionalism and tribalism in a country that paradoxically regards itse...

ONE AGAINST ALL... WINSTON CHURCHILL said political is the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month and next year. As other politicians joining UPND including who retired to active politics are now flip-side via EDITORS. Nowadays, politician are proving to voters that they love power more than them (punters). Indeed, we have started believing and using media to vent our frustration over politics. H.E President Edgar Lungu of Zambia. On the other hands some media houses have turned into political parties supporting their favorite candidates for August elections and covering nicer about his party which is now propaganda or half-truth. Ordinary citizens suffer when politician out each others throat of power due to to the influence of media. As a journalist...I know some media company are busy trying all the trickery and efforts to bring President Edgar Lungu down. The some editors, they have fought and brought President KENN...

POLITICAL HATRED IS RIDING US NOWHERE… MORTAL COMBAT has become the language of our electoral process. As FAROUK ARAIE said gutter politics and character assassination have replaced decency and civility. Zambia is sadly enveloped in a culture of political hatred, unprecedented in our democracy history. Electioneering is in full progress as the nation prepares for August elections. We are living in a world where truth, lies, distortion and politicization are hard to tell. Many politicians resort to gutter politics as they do not possess the talent for good governance. One fact is undeniable: some political figures inspire paranoia, incite more divisiveness and even encourage more radical polices and they might indeed have power to disrupt the utopian ideal of democracy. We cling to barbaric electric political beliefs that are in themselves, self-defeating, self-restrictive, selfishness and self-destructive We carry our negative emotions with us from generation t...

GO GET IT….  GRAMMY AWARD-winning American contemporary gospel duo, MARY-MARY (pictured) stand as Erica Atkins-Campbell and Trecina Atkins-Campbell once sang “GO-GET-IT” In the present days, its like looking in the telescope and see were you are going but not getting there…..just like Jobs are advertised and many makes efforts to update their CV’s and send them to the relevant places. But guess what? There is never response. How do you get motivated in such situation? Its high time we create our own jobs and employ ourselves. Starting a business without money is also difficult. Lets start thinking outside BOX by using the skills we have to overcome unemployment. Lets us take advantage of possible business opportunities that we are lacking in our surroundings and get it. Its your time because you meant for good life. ‪ #‎ GoGetIt‬ The Activist, advocate, and Ambassador Walusungu Ciza Silweya

MOISE KATUMBI: A Beacon of Hope… TOUGH time ahead, but that is what achievers do, they break through tough times to shine. Now the question comes, Will Moise Katumbi going to shine or mop? In Democratic Republic of Congo's (DRC) weight has mounted to President Joseph Kabila, who faces a likely challenge when Katumbi, a former governor of the mineral-rich Katanga province was endorsed for November polls. Katumbi owner of highly successful football club and four-time African champions, TP Mazembe and a politician with unrivaled popularity is intent on democratic progress in a country which has never experienced a peaceful transition of power. He was once a supporter of President Kabila, but resigned in September 2015 over the incumbent's attempts to unconstitutionally hold on to power. Kabila shot to power in 2001 at the age of 30 following the assassination of his father, Laurent Kabila. He went on to win disputed elections in 2006 and 2011 and is bo...

Published by Lusungu Silweya · 10 May 2016 at 10:19 ·     WHITE HOUSE RACE:   Hillary Clinton vs Donald Trump… IN POLITIC S, if you want anything SAID ask a man. If you want anything DONE ask a woman. These are wise words said by former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. At the side of November 8, we will see how Americans if they want anything said by Republican Trump or anything done by Democrat Clinton. Yet again politics is not the art of the possible. It consist in choosing between the disastrous and the unpalatable . Now, between Clinton and trump, who is disastrous and unpalatable? The results reflect a deepening ideological divide in the US. Trump supporters are about 47 percent whereas Clinton 46 percent. DONALD TRUMP Is American businessman, politician, television personality, author, and the presumptive nominee of the Republican Party for President of the United States in the 2016 election. Trump is the Chairman and Pre...

MOTHERS: A Bedrock of Life … MOTHERS heart is the child’s schoolroom. This is an open of praise and appreciation to all the mothers who are angels to their children. A mother is a life-giver. She is God’s trustee after he entrusted her to carry this gift. A mother carries a child for nine months and she has to make the decision to keep the baby or not, but she chooses to keep it and not to abort it, despite all the challenges she may face. The mothers hears the child’s first cry and she knows what it needs. Sher sees its first smile. She is the first teacher at home before the child goes to school. A mother is a rock you can build your life on. She is the shelter you run to when the storms of the world are just too much to bear. She wouldn’t turn her back on you, despite everything bad you might have done to her in life This is real mother. A real mother becomes a mother to every child in the community. We’re what we are today thanks to our mothers. Your uncond...

PASTORS SHOULD STOP PREDICTING ELECTIONS….. ELECTIONS always come and go. But there are lessons to be learned, especially from our supposed “Men of God” who claimed that God himself revealed the outcome to them before the election I want to remind you brothers and sisters to be careful with prophecy. Indeed and we must hold both our political and religious leaders accountable for every word they speak. Please read carefully and draw your own conclusion. The Bible said, “Thou shall not take the name of your God in vain.” What are these men thinking now? Are these revelations really from God? Could He possibly be sending them contradictory messages? I know there are already explanations for all the false prophecies. But at this point, I must leave you to judge for yourselves. The recent past, I shocked after reading news via online on how the news come differently from two PASTORS, predicting the Zambia’s elections which will be held in August. One pastor was say...

How many parents attend meeting or sport activities at their kids’ school? How of them help children with their homework? PARENTS: Dad, mom and kid I believe it’s only a few of them who take their kids education seriously. Parents, do you expect your children to perform well at school if you do not play your part?
