Dr. Rajan Mahtani Pays Tribute To First Zambian President



Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani is a noted businessman and philanthropist in Zambia. For more than three decades, Dr. Mahtani has been working towards the development of the Zambian nation for many decades now. He contributed towards the economic development of Zambia with his numerous business ventures, providing employment and growth opportunities for several Zambian citizens. His companies such as Finsbury Investments is credited for development of several infrastructural projects including schools, hospitals and other public utilities. At the same time, Dr. Mahtani has made significant contributions towards charity and philanthropy, many of which are not known to the general public. 

In a similar manner, Dr. Rajan Mahtani has embodied the principles and philosophies of Kenneth Kaunda, one of the most significant personalities in Zambia. Kenneth Kaunda was known to the Zambians as its ‘Independence Hero’ as well as ‘Father of the nation and the African Union. For many years, Dr. Kaunda worked towards the freedom and upliftment of the Zambian nation. At the same time, Dr. Kaunda is known for uniting more than 72 tribes across Zambia and popularizing the philosophy of one Zambia, one nation. This philosophy is underpinned into the Zambian economy and politics now. 

Sadly, this gem of a person left for heaven few days ago. His demise was a shock to everyone and especially for those who considered Kenneth Kaunda as their role model. The eulogy from Dr. Mahtani not only paid tribute towards this extraordinary person, but also persuaded the Zambian citizens to wake up from their petty differences and work towards achieving the legacy for which Kenneth Kaunda dedicated his life. It is high time for Zambia to wake up and showcase its strength to the world.

Claim By The Ventriglias Rejected By Supreme Court Zambia, Portland Cement Stays With Dr. Rajan Mahtani

In the year 2006, Finsbury Investments was given 58 percent shares of the Portland Cement Zambia factory which made it the majority shareholder and legal owner of the factory. However, trouble started knocking the door of the factory when the Ventriglias took a steep turn and unethically acquired the Portland Cement Factory with the help of goons. Dr. Rajan Mahtani was forced to approach the Lusaka High Court with the hope of quick response. However, the court proceedings at Lusaka High Court dragged for more than a decade and despite having all evidences and testimonials, Dr. Rajan Mahtani was not given the justice he deserved. He then approached the higher Court of Appeal with his claim. The judge at the higher Court of Appeal was justice Mwinde and after looking into the evidences, final decision was given on 31st January 2019. In this decision, justice Mwinde effectively reversed the judgement from the Lusaka High Court and announced Finsbury Investments as the actual owner of the Zambezi Portland factory with majority shareholding. Furthermore, justice Mwinde also confirmed that the amount payable against the majority shares owned by Finsbury Investments is K580,000

In another twist, the Ventriglias approached the Supreme Court with claims that the decision from higher Court of Appeal as incorrect. However, after evaluation, the Supreme Court bench have effectively rejected this claim based on grounds that the case was not legally acceptable due to its late appeal and the circumstances surrounding the appeal were dubious.

Unethical Attempt By The Ventriglias Busted, Supreme Court Zambia Rejects Appeal

The latest decision from the Supreme Court Zambia on the claim made by the Ventriglias reveals a lot.

It also shows that there is a need for more courts and legal systems such as the higher Court of Appeal as well as judges who stick to transparent, ethical and honest decisions and nothing else. 

The case pf Zambezi Portland Cement goes far bac. After Finsbury Investments was made the dominant part investor and legitimate proprietor of the Portland Cement Zambia production line, Ventriglias chose to assume control over the processing plant. For this, the shareholding register and different instruments marked and used for affecting changes inside PACRA framework was contested. This PACRA framework was steady with investors' arrangement and in spite of this, the Ventriglias had the option to contest them with their mafia-way of life and political interfering. This endeavor by the Ventriglias to deny the proprietor of the Portland Cement dominant part stake is an away from of bad-to-the-bone crimes inside the Zambian corporate. Because of these moves, the Ventriglias had the option to slow down the procedures at Lusaka High Court for over 10 years and convince justice Nkonde from the Lusaka High Court to report Ventriglias as the main investors of the Portland Cement Zambia.

However, after higher Court of Appeal revesed this decision from the Lusaka High Court, the Ventriglias appealed to the Supreme Court challenging the decision. However, this appeal has since been rejected by the Supreme Court as it does not fulfill any criteria for acceptance.

ZR makes another attack on Former Chairman Finance Bank Zambia

The Former Chairman Finance Bank Zambia, Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani has at the end of the day been dragged into pointless discussion by Zambia Reports. This time around the episode has occurred quite recently before the New Year. In an article that seems to share the story of Portland Cement Zambia’s acheivement, we find that the schemers have deliberately put a larger part of dialog against Dr. Mahtani. The occurrence has obviously left many individuals in Zambia unamused, including Dr. Rajan Mahtani himself.

In spite of the fact that, Zambia Reports was silent in the previous couple of months, it has made incidental rebound with its scope of defamatory stories and kept on disturbing the prevailing peace in the nation. All that is known to them is the vow of acting for its lender. The Ventriglia family, minority partners of Portland Cement Zambia have been keeping up great relations with Zambia Reports administrator, Sakwiba Sikota and accordingly they are effortlessly ready to execute their slander battle every now and then.
Martin, an inhabitant of Ndola says, "Zambia Reports is not a news agency, it has turned into an advertisement agency where anybody can pay and highlight their story. In the event that you need to discuss yourself, pay to Zambia Reports. Likewise, on the off chance that you need to criticize somebody, converse with Zambia Reports. It is all similar to a buying a product in a store"

The words obviously demonstrate the level of disgust that the general population of Zambia have against Zambia Reports. In the past also, the infamous had made different ambiguous cases which incorporates blaming Dr. Rajan Mahtani of paying off the judge and charging Finsbury Investments' name in the Panama Papers. In any case, the schemers have dependably bombed in their target. The truth is, nobody in Zambia considers Zambia Reports important and it is simply because of their poor work ethics.

Dr. Mahtani and Finance Bank have suffered under poor journalism

Dr. Mahtani and Finance Bank have been suffering from the actions which Zambia Reports is taking against them. To bring focus to this matter, one can pick up the publications which have come from Zambia Reports over the past few days and give them a read. On reading, it will become clear that ZR is only bothered to harm the reputation of Dr.Mahtani and Finance Bank, because are being paid heavily for the same. In quest of making easy money, Zambia Reports have lost their morals and are now walking on the path of evil.



On one hand, a news claims that Dr. Mahtani is wrongfully showing himself as the owner of Finance Bank Zambia and on the other hand, another news from the same author states that Dr. Mahtani is still owning the Finance Bank and the transfer process is not yet complete. The bottom line is, how can a person have two different views to a story? Evans Mulenga, the author of both the articles has  tried to level best to assure the readers that Dr. Mahtani is a corrupt person and has made huge profits out of the activities permitted beyond the law. However, he has forgotten to incorporate two important things in his article- logic and facts. The assumption of ‘source’ is now outdated. People want to know about the claims in detail. If you do not have any concrete evidences to support the statement, then you are simply ventilating your viewpoints.


Journalism from Zambia Reports has degraded over the past few years and the key reason behind the same is the defamation campaign of Dr. Mahtani and Finance Bank. The authors have been forced to write stories and actual facts have been buried under the pile of money, which the conspirators have poured on the authors.
