Patriotic Front, PF, president, Michael Sata, has mockingly praised President Rupiah Banda for being sincere in his statement that the benefits from the privatization of ZAMTEL have already started coming in.

The PF leader has accused President Rupiah Banda of using the money from the sale of ZAMTEL to send First Lady, Thandiwe Banda, to go round the country to campaign for him. Mr. Sata explains that all the money that came from the sale of ZAMTEL has been consumed by President Banda.

In an interview with QFM, Mr. Sata says President Banda’s sincerity that the sale of ZAMTEL has already started benefiting the country is good.

He says so far one of the benefits the President is talking about is the loss of 1, 669 jobs at ZAMTEL.

Mr. Sata further says the President is the only one who has benefited from the privatization of ZAMTEL by government.

Mr. Sata explains that all the money that came from the sale of ZAMTEL has been consumed by President Banda.

He adds that ZAMTEL is still using Zambian tax payers’ money despite the new owner Lap Green Networks taking over running of the company.

He has since challenged president Rupiah Banda to show Zambians the benefits of ZAMTEL’s privatization, apart from the loss of 1, 669 jobs at the company.
