  • Zambian FM Kakubo Resigns After Getting Caught with Chinese Cash? | Vantage with Palki Sharma
    Zambia's foreign Minister Stanley Kakubo has resigned from his post. This was after a video allegedly showed him taking thousands of dollars worth of cash from Chinese businessmen.
    The Zambia-based Chinese businessmen apparently bought a mine from Kakubo for $200,000 and a Mercedes-Benz.
    The minister was forced to resign after public outrage, but denies any wrongdoing.
    Did the Chinese buyers leak the video in an act of revenge?
    Palki Sharma tells you more.

    As a Zambian proud of his Heritage,
    I have to say it Boggs my mind how we boast of these natural recourses that we don't own as the Zambian people and whose resources we have hardly benefited from.
    We are still the 4th most poorest country in the world with over 80%poverty rate. and all we here is discoveries of new mineral reserves and from there no one knows what happens.
    makes no sense to me at all. It's shameful
