Kambwili says he is not among useless Ministers

Mr. Kambwili says this is why he is neither upset nor offended by President Sata’s remarks because he is sure that he does his job both as Minister and Member of Parliament accordingly.

He adds that he also considers the President’s remarks as those coming from a parent counseling his own child.

Mr. Kambwili however says it is only those Ministers that are not doing their jobs diligently and correctly that should be worried about the Head of State’s remarks.

He says when President speaks generally that some Ministers are useless and a Minister gets upset, it means such a Minister knows that he or she is indeed useless.

Mr. Kambwili has told Qfm News in an interview that as far as he is concerned such statements coming from President Sata that some Ministers are useless is actually an encouragement for Ministers to work hard.

He says this is why he has never felt insulted or demoralized by the President’s remarks on the performance of Ministers in government.
