Fellow Citizens, Let me quote the former Prime Minister of Britain, Mrs. Theresa May, because her words in the attached video are relevant to Zambia today. Among other things, Mrs. May said:“I am worried about the state of politics…. One which believes that if you simply assert your view loud enough and long enough, you will get your way in the end….
