ZAMBIAN VICE PRESIDENT: Dr Guy Scott
ZAMBIAN President Michael Sata has made another disparaging remark to his Vice President Dr Guy Scott, telling him that he should consider himself lucky to have a job in a “foreign country.”
Sata made this comment publicly at State House when he walked past Scott to greet Chieftainess Nkomeshya who went to witness the swearing in ceremony of her beloved subject Sylvia Masebo who Sata has reappointed minister, two months after sacking her.
The President asked where the traditional leader was seated and when he saw her sit next to Nkomeshya, Sata said “be careful, you are seating next to a very powerful woman who can overthrow you and take over your job.
You can’t be a chief (but she can be vicepresident), you cannot even be a chief or leader in your own country England because the people there don’t know you,” Sata said adding, “you must consider yourself lucky to be vice president here.”
A stunned Scott did not respond but looked down the whole time the president was speaking.
These comments from Sata toward Scott build upon some earlier tensions between the two, following Scott’s criticism of the president’s interference in the judiciary with regard to the attempt to forcibly remove three judges in order to prevent his DPP Mutembo Nchito from having to repay a K14 billion debt to a state bank.

Uhu a go roga yo mongwe batho…motho yo ga a na maitseo
haahaahaakikikikheehee onether mugabe
Sata o twaela batho…Makgakga
Typical of african heads of state always interferring where they should not and not even making an effort to LISTEN and that remark should not have come from someone like him . If one is born in a country and from another community why should they be labelled “Foreign” how racist and hostile some people can be
