My views are open -Kasambara
Let me preface my post by saying that my views on Martha Chizuma debacle are not a secret. It’s unfortunate that you and your cabal of self-imposed righteous men and women think that any one holding views contrary to yours is a crooked corrupt and unpatriotic.
When we offer gratuitously some legal opinion privately it’s not that we are supporting a particular cause. Only being useful to powers that be to avoid obvious blunders and the powers that be being floored in courts.
The case of Commissioners is one in point May I remind you that we live in a democracy where trading of diverse opinions is order of the day.
