Post Newspaper editor Fred M’membe says the situation at the University Teaching Hospital is improving and not a deathtrap as some politicians, in apparent reference to Dora Siliya, are suggesting.
Commenting on the on-going push for a new constitution in his editorial sermon, M’membe has re-emphasised is well known support for anything associated with President Michael Sata’s government.
He veered off the constitution debate to talk about UTH and this is what the senior PF cadre said on Monday, March 3, 2014.
“We have heard of politicians claiming that the University Teaching Hospital in Lusaka has become a deathtrap. Vice-President Dr Guy Scott upon hearing that visited the hospital and found that actually, things were improving at that hospital.
“We have also visited the hospital and indeed, things are improving at that hospital. Yes, our eyes see differently but facts are facts. And it is an irrefutable fact that things are improving at the University Teaching Hospital.
“It is also true that there are still many challenges and problems in our health sector. These are problems that have been accumulated over a long period of time and they will not be solved overnight,” M’membe commented.
Further, the Post owner whose newspaper is a part of schemes in the PF governance system says there is no crisis for people to demand immediate release of the draft document.
M’membe believes Sata, who himself promised to deliver the constitution within 90 days of assuming power, must be given more time to work on the constitution and that he will do it at his own time.
