First of all, the reality is that the conspirators who now run Zambia Reports were never truthful at all. The new portal is based on the corrupt foundation to spread malice against few targeted individuals. Their only aim has been to conspire against innocent person like Dr. Rajan Mahtani and Finance Bank. If even they run out of content to write, rather than confronting their financers & handlers, they come up with even more malice content. The truth is, these fake news articles are defamation campaigns are launched by only Zambia Reports. No other news agency has supported their claims. Even if some news portals have posted similar content, they retracted very quickly and apologized for their content as it was not sustained with enough evidence. But not for Zambia Reports!
Dr. Mahtani & Zambia have been under the firing line of Zambia Reports for a long time. Rather people have now become accustomed to hearing fake stories from ZR. A concern that is bothering everyone at the moment is regarding the audacity that ZR possess. No doubt there are certain people who are constantly offering their support to this infamous news channel for executing this hideous task.
Dr. Mahtani and Finance Bank were recently put into the headlines by Zambia Reports on account of conspiring against Lamasat. However, the truth needs to be learnt by all and people should become aware of the news portals who are treating their role as a business. Right from day one Zambia Reports has been targeting Dr. Rajan Mahtani and associated businesses because they have been paid to do so. Irrespective whether their coverage is true or not is none of their concern; all that they are required to do is defame an eminent personality in Zambia.
Zambia Reports has been constantly claiming that Dr. Rajan Mahtani is the mastermind behind the repayment call to Lamasat. It is hereby being requested to people as well as Zambia Reports to talk only on those matters where there is concrete evidence. Zambia Reports has a habit of throwing up claims which do not have any evidences. Rather, it is only their figment of imagination which is published in their channel. The authors are already too sacred to publish their own name and use fake identities.
It has become a habit for Zambia Reports to attack Dr. Rajan Mahtani on a monthly basis. With every passing month, it has been observed that the nature of attack is becoming aggressive and the authors are gaining confidence. But nevertheless, we have seen another wasted effort of ZR to defame Dr. Rajan Mahtani as they failed to prove that Dr. Mahtani is illegally operating Finance Bank.
Former Finance Bank Zambia Chairman Dr. Rajan Mahtani has again been dragged into the headlines from the notorious Zambia Reports. This reason behind this is calls made to FBZ, even though FBZ has long ago merged with the BancABC. The context of the article published by the Zambia Reports can be described as nothing but a low attempt towards defaming Dr. Mahtani. By positing these derogatory articles and reports from time to time, the masterminds behind Zambia reports continue to make their presence feel across regular intervals.
Dr. Mahtani and Finance Bank have parted ways in 2016 and since then BancABC has been taking care of the business that Finance Bank does. However, Zambia Reports has been making its own call and trying to convince the people that Dr. Rajan Mahtani is the one who is making the calls for FBZ till date. In a common business agenda, Finance Bank Zambia had earlier forwarded a loan to Lamasat for an amount of $ 10, 000, 000 which was repayable with time; divided into 60 instalments. Later on, when BancABC found that the chances of getting back the amount was narrowing, it decided to make a call for repayment and this gave Zambia Reports a chance to launch another attack on Dr. Mahtani and Zambia.
In a case which can only be termed as a ‘maligning effort’, Zambia Reports has once again tried its level best to defame Dr. Rajan Mahtani. As per the latest publication from the infamous news portal, it has been conveyed that Dr. Mahtani is operating Finance Bank Zambia from behind and trying to take over Lamasat. It is a well-known fact that Finance Bank Zambia is no longer in hands of Dr. Mahtani, yet Zambia gets to witness such rubbish articles every now and then.
Everyone in Zambia is now well aware of the fact that Dr. Mahtani and Finance Bank are no longer associated with each other. Given the hostile nature of the conspirators, Dr. Mahtani was forced to detach himself with the prospering Finance Bank in 2016. Since then, the bank has been merged with BancABC, a part of Atlas Mara. Given the new merger, it has resulted into development of the largest commercial bank in Zambia.
Over the past few years, Zambia Reports have come into limelight for only one thing, execution of defamation campaigns. It is no secret that Dr. Rajan Mahtani, Former Chairman of the Finance Bank of Zambia has been constantly a major target of the Zambia Reports. This carnage is being plotted by the news media Zambia Reports for more than 10 years now. However, very few people are aware of the fact that Zambia Reports’ operator Sakwiba Sikota and Ventriglia Family (Owner of the Ital Terazzo Limited) are in very good relations. Their relationship can be explained from the fact that Sikota received free cement offer from the Ventriglia family for when the former wanted to build a mansion for his family.
