From Kenya we have greatly admired HH's resilience and undying enthusiasm and hope he will tilt Zambia to greater heights.
Africa needs presidents who understand poverty and the people in the Getto not those who satisfy thier stomachs much love from Uganda 🇺🇬 love the new elected president .
HH is not only liberating Zambia, his torch shall shine and change all of Africa! No more divisive toxic politics of old!
Not only Zambians are delighted by the victory of HH. We also express our sincere happiness as Zimbabweans. Twalumba wazichita mwana wamuTonga

Congratulations Mr HH and The great People of Zambia 🇿🇲. As The 1st Seventh-day Adventist in Africa to be a President of a Nation, The World Seventh-day Adventist Church is joining Heart To Heart with You in Prayer for Wisdom like that of Solomon to lead in Integrity, Mercy for The Poor, National reconciliation, building of State agencies and Roads but not strong men and above all *The use of Power for the good of Zambians*. Like Daniel in The Bible, God is with you Mr President HH

True, order first then fix everything. He is filled with wisdom. We love our leader. Thank you so much. Public funds were misused in Zambia, the former president should be charged for misusing public funds. He should be held accountable.
Congratulations my President. What you have said is very true. God continue blessing you abundantly!
YEPP! That's my President! Finally someone we can put on the global stage.

Go Team HH. We are with you all the way. We can only wish you success as you start sorting out the huge mess left behind by your predecessor.
May God's Blessing be upon you as you lead delegate Zambia and its people.
There's a big challenge on his hands but I think HH can do it. One Zambia One Nation.
HH 'aka' Bally President for All Zambians...
MANY thanks to our newly President elect His Excellency Dr HH, transition has arrived. We salute your legacy and referendum since your campaign and today God has fulfilled and restores your mouthpiece. We congratulate and welcome you as our President and Sun of the soil, indeed education play roles your matching and achievement shall be embarrassed by all Zambian including neighbouring countries. May almighty God restores Peace, Grace, and Salvation on your roles; your leadership was already declared by almighty God today. Today we praise God hallelujah and thanks you for your honesty and all peoples of African they're behind you. God bless our President His Excellency Dr HH, I salutes you...
I love this President i hope he makes Zambia a success love from South Africa .
I like that he called them militias and not “cadres” as they are popularly known in zambia. That is the correct name for them.
Will support your vision Bally
HH7 is not a politician but a business man. Someone who understands exactly what needs to be done. We are so much in a mess, and yes It will get rocky and probably not achieve certain things right there and then yes, but we will definitely get there 👍🏽
Hichilema is the best person and personally I think will go down as one of the best presidents we’ve 🇿🇲 ever had.
We shall be with you Mr president and we pray 🙏🏾 God to protect you and give you more and more wisdom Amen
the younger generation is looking up to u🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲✊✊✊✊✊
Such a boss, such diligence. We wish you godspeed your Excellency
this man know zambia and all the Gray areas , i believe he will fix the zambian economy
God bless this man
Mr president sir, i am very much happy indeed for you to become the president for this nation called Zambia. Nothing much I can say about you because I knew that it is the almighty god who pointed you the time you were in your mother's womb that you are going to be the republican president of Zambia . Thank - you so much, may the almighty god guide you all the time.
May God bless and lead HH as he takes up the country to its heights.
To God be the glory for your victory. Always be dependent on Home. Remember, He is way in everything you you ought to do. John 14 verse. God be with you, Your excellence.
On God and not home.
HH is saying the right things, I hope he does well for Zambia….
U are One in a Million papa God bless u more with more Knowledge & Wisdom... Amen
It’s a NEW DAWN in Zambia 🇿🇲 indeed. NOW, this people, is what LEADERSHIP looks like. Be ATTENTIVE.

You are such an inspiration your excellence, Long live Sir

I salute for bringing order to our country.
I salute you for bringing order back to our country we don't want cadres in zambia anymore these people hurt almost everyone in zambia, and people who voted for you are not cadres.
Proud to call you my President you Excellency Hakainde Hichilema 🇿🇲❤
Well spoken Bali
We're undoubtedly in him,I think he is going to deliver, and fulfill the promises if he not we are the people with voices and who believe in democracy.
We thank God for giving us our today Moses bally. We continue praying for you for long life to fix alot things in ths country tht had lost hope of being alive or the meaning of proudly Zambian
Mr President H.H you are belongs to us as Africans and all we support you also outside World .
This is a leader we wanted m so happy 😊 Zambia forward
I have faith in this man, may God guide him....❤❤❤love you Bally
President for real
We trust you our president👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
Love to hear this
He will be the greatest president in the world,I believe in him so much,he give me so much confidence that he is the greatest president
Am a Ghanaian and I pray that he does what he says. He should weed out those who will delay his agenda in his cabinet. I wish him well so one day we will visit Zambia 😁
Time to see great change in the economic sense,a country should not be ruled by cadres because most of them have no capacity to understand in depth what it means to be a leader
We voted and we know it's not going to be easy,so far yo voice is final
Hope is the word. Godspeed Mr President.
This man is an Embodiment of the late Levy Patrick Mwanawasa ( may God rest his soul)
I believe in you Mr. President
Well explain Mr. HH
Steady and treading very carefully My President, God Bless Zambia
Bally🔥🔥🇿🇲
Thanks to well meaning Zambians for retrieving this country in time.
It could have sunk/drowned forever with the corrupt PF boat/regime.
An old saying - 'A country gets the Government it deserves'. Darling, darling Zambia! We may have the President now that we have deserved for many years. Someone who will be the servant of the people he loves (go read your Bible...!), someone who is intelligent, lucid, exposed to the outside world (MBA Birmingham), someone who has suffered, someone who has persevered, and someone who has been highly successful in what he has done to date in life. There are so many places where he could start work in Zambia - corruption in the Ministries, charcoal burning deforestation, homelessness (you can't call living in corrugated iron kapoto 'home), the re-colonisation of Z. by heartless, God-less, racist communists who cover the country with cheap blue paint (you know who I'm talking about), plastic recycling (please get glass back), and the drift from the villages to the cities. BUT - Ba President Hakainde has SUCH a wonderful people with which to work with, in such a wonderful place, with sun, water, space. May the gross disconnect that exists between what Zambia HAS and what Zambia IS be broken forever. May Zambia be a haven for those who love Africa, love Africans, love God. May it be, under HH, a place of security, peace, prosperity (always green please, always sustainable), a light that shines in Africa, a reputation that grows globally, and the death knell to the basket case image those in the rich parts of the world have of Africa.
President for all Zambians. No cheap tribal propaganda
HH. Hope and help for zambia 💪
Wise words Mr Bally our president
HH, and the UPND have changed the tone and level politics from fourth grade politicking to issue based politics. He aims on attacking economical problems finding sustainable solutions and not attacking individuals. Such is the leader will need. Am behind you sir HH your excellence. No more politics of character assassination. Therefore, the opposition party of government should learn to provide positive issue based criticisms which will lead to developing a better Zambia and not looking forward to seeing HH and the UPND fail. We must support the man, he has a vision for the country. Go Bally Go, son of Zambia, son of the soil, son of Africa. May the almighty Lead you as you shine the righteousness of God To the whole world. May the principals of right doing protect you.
Nation building is vital and the springboard upon which to build on the rest. We'll done your Excellency.
Our president 💖 our future looks bright with you in seat. May mother Zambia stand on her feet again🇿🇲🙌
WE HAVE HIGH HOPES IN YOU AS UGANDANS TO HELP STOP BLOOD SHADE ON AFRICAN CONTINENT.
Allow people make their own economic goal bit by bit without rushing too first on big economic aims.
My President, your President and our President 😀😀
Well said mr.president,wish you good luck with God everything is possible, trust in God, he's got good plans for he's people.
I love you my lovely excellence president hh I know you can change zambia into paradise
Good i dear for United nation Zambia plus construction that is development
HH man of the people
Mr President long journey you've made to get to this palace.
But reminds you let Zambians control their economy in hand. Everywhere we've seen the Chinese and Indians who are enjoying the business while indigenous left behind. Not only Zambia. Across African Indians & Chinese, both were ahead in our soil. We elected leaders nothing changes the image of African. People are slaves or saviours in their country.
Sometimes even the smallest glimmer of hope is all one needs to keep pushing.
There is hope and as Africans, we rejoice with the people of Zambia and we wish them and their new president well.
Bally😍😍🥰
It is not only the youth mr president who voted for you sir,we did also the elders.
best wishes pres.hh
What is Mr President going to do about Chinese issues
..time for smart talk is over Sir, people now need action, speak less act more...do not be too nice, be a stern visionary leader with grip like Kagame ( minus his other bad attributes of cause), strengthen institutions make them more independent , uproot corruption, and by now you should be knowing the debt position of Zambia....you cant take another year establishing that, you dont have that much time, the clock is already ticking..
Word👌
No time to waste pipo are waiting,they don't consider whether it's 2 days or what don't look back pipo voted they can also impeach constitutionally.
Let him take the time to fully implement the UPND manifesto without being rushed. Already his appointing key stakeholders he can trust and work with. Please give him space.
Seems like a far easier transition than the shit show happening where I live: America.
Rooting for u Mr President #HH7
He was the strongest opposition in Africa now president, LUNGU MUPE MUNYOKO.
We thank God the day of elections came and now is established what God gave us. My pray is God continue to guide our President to do that is of God for His people. To be in agreement with the will of God on His people. Psalm 32:8, says, "I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye". I pray as the word of God is faithful and God is faithful to His word that as His word has said may He instruct you daily and teach you what to do in every situation and circumstance. Humble yourself under His instruction that He may use you to deliver His will upon His people. We shall continue to pray for you and our nation and God will never fail nor forsake us. It shall be well. God bless you!!!
We happy you have taken over pray you could stay as a life president
Don’t get near President of Zimbabwe. You will die
Why he’s witch 😳😨
Credibility
Yep....restored and much needed
Come on SA let’s us be next and stop the reign of the anc that is ruining us 🙏🏼🙏🏼
The Problem with us Africans is to praise the athletes before they even start the race. When the inevitable happens it takes long to realise that we were wrong.
Zambia is a country endowed with resources . He can make it a big bread of Africa than Zimbabwe was. Let's wait and
See the implementation of plans. The reality is he is yet to achieve if he has big plans and yet to fail if he doesn't have plans.
That's true,wait HH has not yet started the. Race he is not even in the running track wait and see boody
You are to see and rate somebody's work through there background and what they stand for, isn't that how you choose who to vote for? He hasn't even yet started implementing the UPND vision and we are already turning into doudting Thomases.
Mr President🤝🤝🤝🤝
Sounds too good to be true,
This is what happens when you get used to mediocrity when people start making sense it sounds alien.
Bally ni bally he will fix it🙌👏🙏😇
Yes,yes,yes with God all things are possible,let's continue to pray for divine strength in the new Dawn government and our president HH,Bally will fix it in Jesus name,rev Thabo c m
Only with your participation.
Restoring the rule of law and strengthening the Judicial system will be the first step to getting investor confidence back and negotiating our way out of the Huge debt that was amassed by the of administration. The acc and DEC should do there job for once and ensure the culprits pay back legally and financially to the state. That is in public interest right now
