Heritage party president Brigadier General Godfrey Miyanda has said that he wished that he was as popular as the Patriotic Front leader Michael Sata.

Brig. Gen. Miyanda said that the Patriotic Front leader Michael Sata had sold himself well, which has resulted in him being popular.

Speaking on Radio Phoenix’s let the people talk this morning; the former Republican Vice President however stated that Zambian people will decide on which leader to vote for in the 2011 elections.

Meanwhile, Gen. Miyanda has revealed that his party will soon decide on which particular party it will be working with in the 2011 elections.

He said that the party has not yet decided whether to work with any political party or stand in the elections as the Heritage Party.

Speaking on the same programme, former minister in the MMD government, Andrew Kashita has noted that corruption fight cannot be handled in the way it is being handled.

He has implored whichever government taking office after the 2011 elections to step up systems in the way corruption is fought.

  1. General Miyanda is a credible leader…. problem he has no vision and can not articulate him self 

  2. Indded The Jozi Tales, another endorsement from a great leader to our even greater leader Sata

  3. This is a leason to MMD, to reason that their popularity is at stake. A clear indication that this years election won’t be easy for them. They should just accept that they have lost popularity and start preparing to pack and go.

  4. GENERAL THE PF BOAT IS READY FOR YOU PLEASE JUST JUMP IN AND CROSS THE ZAMBEZI TOGETHER AND LET SHOW THE OTHERS HOW YOU AND SATA CAN IMPROVE THE LIVES OF MILLIONS OF ORDINARY ZAMBIANS IBCLUDING MYSELF.GENERAL YOU DONT HAVE TO DROWN YOURSELF BY JOINING OTHER CORRUPT PARTIES. TIYENI TIYENDE PAMODZI NA UMTIMA UMODZI TI KWELE BOAT YA PF

  5. Satamania, the sh!t has hit the fan lol!!!!!! Seems everyone is toking satasata. Bwayuma buumi badaala….uno mwaka chita basa.

  6. Welcome to the boat sir!.You are a real General & very honest not fake chaps like big chimona who has not principles.

  7. WOW!! I give up on all parties except Sata’s PF. He appears to be the last Zambian Nationalist standing, and the rest are sellouts!! They are useless like used condoms…. all of them except SATA. VIVA SATA! VIVA!!! Naine nikwela Bwato lelo.

  8. Actually BG Miyanda you are more popular than Sata but you are selfish. Remove your selfishness and partner with Sata. You will be a better pact than the PF/UPND Pact.

  9. 1.The Engineer (Australia). The general is just being honest. H.E  M.C Sata has done a good job. Ba general we need you to form the next government. We need people like you to ASSIST prosecute THIEVES.

  10. Miyanda did not say that Sata is a presidential material, all he said is that Sata sold himself well. Why ululate as if the man is best for Zambia? Lest you 4got, the K2 billion in a trunk, the zig zag positions on serious national issues such as the Barotseland Agreement, Chiluba’s corruption, etc. People think Sata is a Cobra, he is actually that dangerous Viper whose poison kills a human in an instant.

  11. General u re a wise and credible leader, we therefore invite you to join the UPND and u shall never go wrong

  12. hehehe..the kaponyas are not reading between the lines..Gen.Miyanda didn’t say he wants to join the sinking boat..hahahahaha..mwapya..sata will be taken to Milpark clinic for another surgery after elections..ahahaha

  13. General, what has made Sata popular is not anything far fetched. It is a four letter word and, it is not a swear word by the way – it is “WORK.” One does not need rocket science to figure that out. 

  14. This one is a lazy General he only comes out when there are elections, all the while he’s being siding with the thieves in government so how does he expect to be popular. In short he’s not Presidential material, he would be sleeping on duty.

  15. General Miyanda is now very poor and hungry. He is close to a stage when the belly calls the shots. This riminds me of a parable when the brain, the eyes, the anus were arguing who is more important. In the, end the anus won. The power of the stomch in politics is huge

  16. same old plunderers regrouping…our contry failing to come out of list of the Least Developed Countries coz of poor economic management skills when u & serpent were in GRZ

  17. Sata knows whats up, and he is they way forward. RB is just a mediocre leader. I think FTJ had something to do with RB being at plot one. Also RBs comments when he opened a kama turkish school are appauling. How can a president laugh at a GRZ school kanshi? Checkout the story in the post.

  18. I have a letter General miyanda has joined PF kwasila .whoooooooooooooooooop .Received by PF secretary and welcomed by His Excellent Micheal chilufya Sata.Welcome Sir General Miyanda we were waiting for you to speak last.

  19. oH GENERAL. aRE YOU DESPERATE. YOU STILL TRUST THE SNAKE. RECALL WHAT HAPPENED TO MWILA AND HUGE RALLIES IN TOWNS. HE WAS BURIED ARRIVE. WATCH OUT. MMD WILL STILL WALLOP YOU. I WILL NEVER EVER TRUST A SNAKE

  20. Genral Godfrey Miyanda I respect you sir! 10 treason cases (highest offense in any land and acquitted on all of them) with no lawyer representing him. In fact, all the classmates at Sandhurst (except him have been President! List includes: Col Kaddafi, General Obasanjo, Babaginda, Abache all of Nigeria, Rawlings of Ghana, George Speight of Fiji to name a few)! All were presidents except him. One of his military courses- How to create a coup! Disciplinarian and by some strange fate was supposed to have taken RB’s job as vice President before he ‘refused’ it in public, even before it was officially offered to him! Would be the ideal leader that (Zambia needs) less like RB and more like Sata- nothing like HH- too charismatic for HH!

  21. # 31 keep Dreaming. We have the voters cards so let us talk. Yakosa boss kuya bebele.

    # 22 Mulechimona nomba. He who laughs last my dear. WAKE UP, YOU SNOOZE YOU LOOSE

  22. Miyanda just join PF mudala………….VOTE PATRIOTIC FRONT… ABASH ILLEGAL SALES OF ZAMTEL AND OTHER COMPANIES, UNDER VALUATION OF ZAMTEL…….IT HATES

  23. Please General Miyanda join hands with Sata and burry your differences for our sake, we need your leadership in the next GRZ.To be honest with you General, you can’t win an election alone and if only you partner with His Excellency Michael Chilufya Sata the president of the Patriotic Front of the Republic of Zambia you achieve a lot.Ala ba miyanda nangu nimwe ba general inkondo tabalwa weka you need troops.VIVA PF VIVA SATA, DONT KUBEBA! PABWATOOOO!

  24. This sounds more of an endorsement of Sata for PRESIDENT, the General is really Diplomatic. That shows immense wisdom & humility. Probably, this is the reason why the man is failing to be a successful politician, he’s too Honest to be a Politician.

    Politicians are like bananas, they are all yellow, they stick together, and none of them is straight.

    His wife, Mrs Angela Miyanda, does great things for the needy, I’ve never seen her parading the people she helps in front of TV cameras, what an honourable mother that woman is. May God bless you.

    General Miyanda, please, the people of Zambia can use your counsel as we go to the polls this year. May God be with you.

  25. This just shows how poor the general is at selecting words. Believe me he never meant to ‘worship’ Mr Sata……..He said something very far from what he meant, how sad.

    As a psychologist…i know general was trying to sell his vision for Zambia but messed it by starting the sentence with tring to acknowledge Sata’s much reprted ‘popularlity’. He does not even think Sata is popular…true

  26. General Miyanda you are too credible to be linking your self to these liers. Your are populer also in credibility and some of us will continue respecting for your humility personality,please stop admiring thangs.

  27. To be popular and to be voted for are two  different issues. Sata is popular as a comedian and not presidential material.Most people who attend his rallies is simply for entertainment as rightly put by Milupi. Mark my word.

  28. RETIRED GENERAL…STILL MARKTIMIING IN POLITCS..TOO SELFISH TO FALLOUT OF THE POLITICAL PARADE.. NO VISION WITH ONLY A HANDFUL OF FOLLOWERS…AN IDLE RTD GEN WHO HAS FAILED TO SOLDIER ON WITH THE HERITAGE PARTY..

  29. Viva SATA VIVA PF….welcome General,…… some more are coming….. I wish Felix Mutati would join PF no sooner than later, his a brilliant man…..cant he see the MMD ship is sinking for real…. Nevers Mumba this is the time you chose sides if you still want to stay in Canada……. Dora Siliya prostitution will come to an end…..VJ its time to kick politics good buy…wa survivor mudala, Kunda VP…no comment we know you are just bwana type, Yes Sir…..

  30. Miyanda if you had a good heart to your relatives,friends and the people of the nation you were going to be the next president. Check your heart general and come out from the hole, you have been quiet who can recognise.Namweo a Miyanda muziba kuti chete chete sausa nyama. Nyama zuuka zikamva chongo. Mwe mumvika nalini teti seo tenzekuti mweleka za ndale.

  31. am sure Miyanda has the potential to make a better president than some people even if they are popular. But Miyanda has no strategy! can somebody advise this gentleman on strategy please

  32. I also envy Mr. Sata’s popularity but I can’t show it. I’m only depending on Hon. V.J. Mwaanga in this year’s elections. I talk to FDD,UNIP,ADA and other parties to support me.
    Mr. Siulapwa and Mr.Sikota are already behind me.
    Mr. Hichilema has just given me conditions for an MMD-UPND pact but I dont want to lose Mr. Kunda so Mr Hichilema will be minister of finance if we win that is.

  33. INDEED I ALSO ADMIRE THE CHARISMATIC OF THIS SATA. THE GUY HAS MANAGED TO PUT THE WHOLE GOVT MACHINERY ON TOES. MMD ARE ALWAYS CHECKING EVERY MOVE SATA MAKES

  34. I have always liked Miyanda but I really hate that he only comes out of the woodworks during election time. It doesn’t give him a lot of credibility but he is an honorable man who calls it like it is. Sata is popular because he has maintained his relevance to zambian politics even when others have gone into hibernation after elections. It will be an interesting election this year. May the best candidate win.

  35. I’m failing to sleep. When i sleep,for two weeks now, I dream about Mr. Sata ordering my arrest.
    every night i dream about Mr. Sata chassing me with a whip. sometimes i screem,SATA, SATA, SATA I’m tired mwandi. I eat money alone people complain,i build urban roads people complain again.

  36. LATEST!!!!! SATA’S IGNORANCE OR LIES EXPOSED: finance minister hon situmbeko musokotwane has exposed sata’s ignorance of national affairs. addressing pf rallies in western province over the weekend mr sata said that if his party comes to power it would construct the mongu-kalabo road and the sesheke-senanga road. mr musokotwane has questioned what kind of ignorance mr sata is exhibiting since these two roads are already under construction. what the minister does not seem to know is that sata wants to take credit for what rb is doing. i am sure the crowd must have gone away wondering why sata thought they are such id.iots. pf cadres, so you think that crowd will vote for mr sata after he insulted their intelligence like that?

  37. @57, flip flopping again? remember mr sata’s gay interview with the danish journalists? you accused znbc of making up the story to frame sata.

  38. Even me,i dont sleep because of Mr. Sata. i’m very scared because he wants to arrest me when he wins.

  39. BG Miyanda is a man of God i hope he does not join the serpent with his SS-Titanic a.k.a Pa bwato /Pa Fwaka . THIS MAN WILL REPEAL CHRISTIAN NATION SIR.
    THE CREDIBLE PEOPLE ARE:
    MILUPI,HH,AND BG MIYANDA please form this one stop coalition party!

  40. No wonder he once allegedly tried to steal power the illegal forceful way, got caught, tortured and excreted very stinking excrement in his own Brigadier combat. Shame to all men in uniform, and now wishing he was also popular when he is a lone buffalo roaming on a confused village concept only him understand.

  41. we are for the real change..vivaHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH 2011..STATE HOUSE

  42. THESE OLD RECYCLED POLITICIANS ARE TO RETIRE THIS YEAR 2011,,WE ARE T0 ELECT NEW AND CARING LEADERS ,,VIVAA H.H VIVA UPND

  43. For every zambian who thinks ad talks with the head..PF H.E mr.M.C. Sata hes the real deal of change for zambia.

  44. Yes B Gen Miyanda please join the H.E. President Michael Chilufya Sata would need your help to discipline the plunderers. VIVA PF VIVA MIYANDA!

  45. Bwezani and Dora, beware”

    “Mubarak(Banda) is not a symbol for Egypt(Zambia) and he is not the father of Egyptians (Zambians). He is an employee and he betrayed the trust he was given, he sold out the country, he is the reason behind the killing and the arrest of millions of Egyptians(Zambians in Barotseland) and that it why we seek the death penalty for him,” said Mohamed Elm on Facebook.

  46. @57, we are serious people who have no time to waste on endless arguments over obvious facts, you can ask mr mmembe or those who attended the rally, or you can ask mr sata himself if you are lucky enough to get him to “remember” even a word of what he said. however, we can ask znbc or better still cc3 to show the whole speech if that is the final proof that you require to show that mr sata is just a comedian who has no idea what he talks about.

  47. We are not certain as to whose conscience General Miyanda is reflecting, especially taking into account that Gen. Miyanda, late Gen Tembo, Ben Mwila, Anderson Mazoka, Nawakwi were expelled from MMD by Zondwa Sata in his quest to promote a 3rd-Term bid for Chiluba to his own economic advantage. It is difficult to comprehend the basis of Gen. Miyanda’s sentiments. I for one hereby swear to God, that my vote and those of my children, family, relatives and friends will NEVER be wasted on Michael Zondwa Sata. We do not want Zambia to experience another form of neo-imperialism originating from Tanzania. The sooner Zambia develops a network of roads systems and rail links to Angola, Botswana, Mozambique via Malaw iand Namibia, the better for the prosperity of future generations.

  48. @DS Malama, you can only swear that YOUR vote will not be wasted on Sata, you cannot swear for the rest of your family because a person’s vote is his/her secret. I am just saying….

  49. I hope Mr Sata wins because it seems everyone is talking about the man. He has always been popular but I think his popularity has become much more with his media fuelled rallies. MMD is shaking, other opposition parties are either praising him or trying to bring him down. I am sure UPND’s HH must be regreting pulling out of that partnership with PF because that was a game changer. PF however will find it hard to win outrightly unless they can re-form pacts with UPND and other opposition parties. Too much of the same thing is not good, MMD has had 20 years and not much to show for it, this is the time to change to something different, hopefully something better.

  50. The General is the only credible leader at the moment, I wish the people can give him support. When I listen to his speeches he talks sense. We need discipline in that country and he is the right persons, go for it?

  51. what nonesense, just because he is from eastern province, what does he have to offer?nothing! this is a soldier and cannot think beyond a barrel of a gun!  HH is the credible leader and only a fool would think otherwise!

  52. MIYANDA DIDNT ENDORSE SATA, WE KNOW MANY PEOPLE GO TO SATA RARRIES TO LISTEN TO HIS JOKES HE NEVER TALKS ABOUT REAL ISSUES SUCH AS EDUCATION,HEALTH,AGRICULTURE,ECONOMY ETC CAUSE HE DOESNT UNDERSTAND THEM. HE WILL LOSE AGAIN AND THIS WILL BE HIS LAST CHANCE AND THE END OF PF( PARTY for F00ls) 

  53. Development issues shall be the core of elections and not personalities. Nation is bigger than individuals. Leaders come and go, but nation continues.

    Let us discuss manifestoes and development issues.

  54. @OCTOPUS PAUL BWALYA
    Stop your emotions at once take it or leave it its just out of jealous you talking like that make rallies we gona see the people would be in attendance none stops you mmd satanists from holding rallies i am not partisan ,just your comments some times comes out with emotions take it low you guys until we see after 2011 who has a big political muscle.good day otherwise :d

  55. #66 saw the minister on tv mournin with his officers huddled in his officer comfortin each other

  56. @COUNTER ATTACK , AM NOT EMOTIONAL ABOUT THESE ELECTION MY CONCERN AND THAT OF WELL INFORMED ZAMBIANS IS THAT SATA IN NOT THE REAL CHANGE ZAMBIANS NEED ,HE  DOES NOT INSPIRE CONFIDENCE WE NEE REAL CHANGE NOT JUST POLITICAL PROSTITUTION FROM UNIP TO MMD TO PF sata IS STILL SATA WITH SAME GRADE 7 APROACH TO RUNNING A COUNTRY.SATA CAN NEVER BE A SHEEP HE IS A WOLF FOR LIFE NO MATTER HOW MUCH WE CLEAN HIM

  57. To be popular does not mean to be a capable leader. Mr Chiluba was popular but he was a disaster. We have not learnt. The reason why General Miyanda has not sold himself well is because he is frank, objective, logical and honest. Which are attributes the majority of Zambians do not want. They want populists, demagogues, goal shifters who work on the naivety of Zambians who wallow in the rhetoric and and emotion driven messages of these people. The problem with political jokers is that they get elected and by the time people realise they made a mistake, it is too late.

  58. General this is a great oppotunity for you to lead Zambia. We have always been your admirers in terms of your uprightness. Join PF now and become the next republican vice president then peresident in 2016. This country needs hundreds of credible pipo like you. Viva change. Viva Miyanda. Nomba kubeba

  59. Yes General we need you to remove this satanic Government of plunderers. We are tired of MMD of Dora siliya & Henry Banda where everything is done in Bed.

  60. Please General We need you to work with Sata. These MMD guys are thugs. Bapompwe munshibila nsala. Honestly, how can they put usd 98m(K500billion) on society house whose value is k10billion. This day robbery. The usd 98million is alot of money that can build alot of other buildings that putting in on a single building. Pedicle road is using k240billion. That is worth it than renoveting one building. Ubu bupupu of the highest order. Please general come out and condenm this kind of stealing.

  61. It is said, if you have to eat a frog, let it be the juicest one. Sata and his PF is the best frog. Welcome to the boat Bwana General..

  62. General, you are a great admirable figure. Your village concept in an alabasta box is one answer for zambia. Hats off to you for geneuin hearty statement. Remain blessed

  63. Mr Sata is the mort popular presdencial candidate so far and it is my wish that he wins this years election, viva PF viva Sata.

  64. Some years back Gen. Chinkuli said this about Br.Gen. Miyanda whom he had worked with in the army;- “Godfrey is a very inteligent man, but the only problem with him is that he doesn’t like listening to others” end of quote. those who did not know Gogfrey Miyanda thought his former boss was being malicious. But today he can only bemoan Sata being popular and not hoping to be President himself despite being younger because of the wickness.

  65. MMD are damn scared plus Levy’s Ghost is hunting RB and Chiluba. Wapya baisa Levy. Celebrating Levy’s death Chiluba though freedom will come. RB & CHILUBA IFYAKULYA UBUSHIKU FITULIKILA KUMALUSHI” Levy uyo! Mwapwa asa! Lelo lelo!

  66. Each time I sleep, i dream levy and Sata reconcilling at State. After that i see him pointing RB with His left hand saying You Traitor ukachimona! And then he hands over power to sata saying that traitor just hijucked presidency. Thats fjt confessing to regina.

  67. Aluyeni kaofela Mwamukolo, naikosa pa zed batata. All plunderers are shivering the boat is about to anchor. Lelo nyamasoya bwezani, chief thief chiluba, machungwa, chitika, savior chungu naipya . Kwingila behind bars bebele. Viva PF Viva MC SATA ala mudala nauikunta ubusaka. Wacha muchezo

  68. GENERAL MIYANDA IS VERY HUMBLE AND GODLY MAN. HE IS A MAN OF WISE WORDS.AND IAM TOLD HE IS A STRONG BELIEVER IN MIRACLES.WHAT A GOOD MAN.GOD BLESS YOU GENERAL. BUT ABOVE ALL HE DOESNT MINCE WORDS.
