Those who live in grass houses should not throw stones

It is unjustifiable for one who cannot be sued to sue in the name of proving innocence. This clearly justifies why Zambia needs a new constitution to ensure that the document does not only protect those in authority but meets the aspirations of the very people it aims to protect. It is a long held view that the current constitution gives the sitting President too much powers, a view which has now been proved by the President appearing in court where even court decorum could not be respected and their honor were at a loss on how to handle the incumbent. I have always said politicians should always look beyond there interest, as regards the national constitution and President Micheal Charles Chilufya Mwango Sata has an opportunity to give us a document that stands the test of time and not that, which propagates confusion and anarchy to say the least, as is currently the situation. We should all admit including State House that the current constitution falls short of our aspirations, as a country thus needing treatment. If his excellency was an individual like he was in the opposition, the highlight of the article the subject of alleged defamation would not have been on him, as an individual but because of the nature of the office he holds criticism is inevitable. Additionally, lack of public engagement through different avenues such news conferences has been elusive for the last three-years at State House. My earnest appeal therefore to the country's leadership should be about serving the integrity of its people rather than public image build up at our expense. What are the answers to the Kwacha, which has taken a walk now at K6.7 to a dollar, Konkola Copper Mines Saga, Zambians need inspiration leadership, overcome their daily challenges. I also want to thank Malawian Outgoing President, Joyce Banda for providing the continent with the joke of the year for claiming that she been rigged out of office. This is unprecedented for a sitting President in Africa and the digging of her heels on the ground is not a solution. Views expressed here are purely personal
