State House Rocked by 'Shady Deals' Allegations: Nyasulu Claims 'Roma' Pushed Deals for the Boss

Former Zambia Medicines and Medical Supplies Agency (ZAMMSA) director general Victor Nyasulu has voiced strong suspicions regarding the intentions of Health Minister Professor Roma Chilengi concerning ZAMMSA. Nyasulu suggests that the issues being raised by Professor Chilengi appear to align with ongoing reports about the potential privatization of certain facets of the agency.

Nyasulu has also reiterated his prior claims that Professor Chilengi, during his previous role as presidential health advisor, frequently contacted him to advocate for various deals on behalf of "his boss." These assertions highlight a contentious relationship and raise questions about influence and transparency within the health sector.

However, State House has responded to Nyasulu's allegations by redirecting the accusations, implying that perhaps these purported deals were not for a third party but rather for Nyasulu himself. This counter-claim complicates the narrative, suggesting that ulterior motives might be at play from multiple sides.

In an interview with Daily Revelation, Nyasulu explicitly stated his lack of confidence in Professor Chilengi’s proposed "ZAMMSA reset," further indicating a deep rift and disagreement over the future direction and operational integrity of the medical supplies agency.
