    Post newspaper of Jan 8, 2011: Barotse Agreement is valid-Sata

    • HAVE YOU GUYS READY THE B. AGREEMENT, I GUESS YOU HAVE NOT BCOZ IF YOU HAVE THEN YOU SHOULD NOT XPOSE IGNORANCE OVER THE MATTER….THE B.A TALKS ABOUT EQUAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES IN WESTERN PROVINCE…. NOTE THAT THIS SHOULD APPLY TO ALL PROVINCES INCLUSIVE OF MUCHINGA. THERE IS NOT ONE SINGLE PART OF THE DOCUMENT THAT STATES THAT WP SHOULD BE A STATE ON ITS ON, SO WHEN PF PROMISED TO HOURNAL THE AGREEMENT THEY MEANT WELL. JUDGE SATA IF HE FAILS TO DEVELOP WESTERN PROVINCE….

  2. Sata said, “There is no honest person who can deny the existence and validity of the Barotse Agreement. And those with honour and integrity honour valid agreements they have entered into whether they still like them or not,” Sata said. “The PF government will honour the Barotse Agreement without hesitation because we have no problems with it. We see nothing wrong with it.”

  3. Sata said, “There is no honest person who can deny the existence and validity of the Barotse Agreement. And those with honour and integrity honour valid agreements they have entered into whether they still like them or not,”

  4. He looks like a Dictator for sure in that Uniform. We told you RB was angel. Now that you have made your choice, Zambians prepare to enjoy your life in the fire. You thought the frying pan was bad. Time to find out the hard way.

  5. Sata has announced an act of war against citizens. Never head of a President in a democracy who makes a decree of mobilizing a national army against unarmed citizens in self expression of will and rights. International criminal law experts here is a business for you. Sons and daughters of Barotseland scattered around the world mobilize yourselves to take on this insanity. We stand ready to link you up to international Rights Groups, rights campaigners, international war criminal law experts and financiers of anti dictatorship. Your land is endowed with water, oil, Gold and timber that is convertible capital for your dignity.

  6. Interesting statement about the underdevelopment of WP.
    Didn’t he tell the people of WP when he was campaigning that the province was neglected by MMD at the expense of other provinces? He promised the WP a University, and restoration of the Barotseland Agreement 1964, within 90 days! Mwaona uyu mambala.

  7. As an easterner I can only laugh at the lozi’s for thinking Sata was telling them the truth. You see now, ‘dont be cnfrontational, you are on the weaker side’ lol

  8. Sata is right, just wait. Do not confuse MMD rule under Banda with PF rule under Sata. The current Republican President Mr MC Sata has just been in government for 3 months and in this period he has instituted a commission over Barotse Agreement of which the out come is not been furnished to him to take appropriate action. What the is the type of thinking where you just want to impose your will over a genuine president trying to solve your problem? Even when Barotse is given, not all will be rulers. Onlyone Litunga will have the monarchy which is even much more dictatorial than our current system. You will cry more under the autocracy of a monarchy under Litunga. Get to your right senses. We need  development for all provinces. Focus on stopping of theft & misuse of Resources we need all.

    • You are an idio t mate, the commission set up is not on the Barotse Agreement. I wonder why you idi ots keep on commenting on shite you don’t understand. The commission was solely set up to investigate the fracas in the western province when police killed young people earlier this year. You are just a blinded fool who will follow Sata even into a pit of fire, learn to be objective and take time to read what your president said bellow.

  9. Sata please you are the one who is being confrontational….You are the one who has made threats at military passout parades (Kohima). Malama has dispatched your Kanyangu to both Northwestern and estern Province. Equally the madunkunya at Defence Mwamba has made ratlling threats about the Barotse. When warrants of arrest are issued by the new Gambian woman ICC Chief Prosecutor for Sata, Sakeni, Mwamba and Malama; I hope there wont be cries of one ethnicity been targeted!

  10. This issue of baroste land which is been spearheaded by ZWD will bring about untold spill of blood. I don’t think this group even exists. It should be some small elements of disgruntled people trying to bring downfall of sata. There will be blood and some inocent lives may be lost. Please people keep cool or else u may regret having contributed to such.
    We are all obliged to respect the constitution at all costs….. You like him or hate him sata is Zambia’s president. And this same Zambia also includes western province. Let us give PF chance to rule.

    • I agree with you! ZWD is a confused site which is promoting confusion in Zambia: Tongas against bembas, lozis against Zambia

  11. Why make being confrontation as a way of life and living? Suppose other adopt the confrontational stance, then Banda way of doing things may repeat itself! 47 years and you only know confrotation what type of mind set is it. Learn to do things differently. If you continue to be confrontational other will behave the same and you can imagine what that situation would be. common sense is really not common to all.

  12. Lozis did not know they are putting  a Bemba democratically elected government in place. Never cheat your way into power,90 days chakuti ,90 days chakuti,90 days chakuti chinekeeeee did he really know he will stil be there after 90 days to meet the expectations? Now he is turning to the police and army to squash the 90days chakuti. God give me more days to watch this enjoy this circus to the end.

  13. # 4 Spot on. Mr Sata made those statements as a promise to Zmbians. Why is it an offence to remind him of his own words. Mr Sata is right on fight against corruption and we support him. However, he has to honour his words much as we support his intention to fight corruption, he to must be honourable in his words to avoid being misunderstood. When he claims to distaste corruption he expresses a principle he believes in. In the same vein his principles must prevail in word and deed to remain true.

  14. HAVE YOU GUYS READY THE B. AGREEMENT, I GUESS YOU HAVE NOT BCOZ IF YOU HAVE THEN YOU SHOULD NOT XPOSE IGNORANCE OVER THE MATTER….THE B.A TALKS ABOUT EQUAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES IN WESTERN PROVINCE…. NOTE THAT THIS SHOULD APPLY TO ALL PROVINCES INCLUSIVE OF MUCHINGA. THERE IS NOT ONE SINGLE PART OF THE DOCUMENT THAT STATES THAT WP SHOULD BE A STATE ON ITS ON, SO WHEN PF PROMISED TO HOURNAL THE AGREEMENT THEY MEANT WELL. JUDGE SATA IF HE FAILS TO DEVELOP WESTERN PROVINCE….

  15. He is dressed already in that uniform, igweeeee lozis unless you are sure of your David against this goliat please stay away from his path.I have never seen him this evil kokolo with the devil.

  16. Thumbs up your excellency these malozi should not be confrontational because they are weak, sha weak malongwani, SATA acknowledged that barotse agreement exist , m******mwe does not mean he secede malozi No., please don’t push this man too far otherwise u are weak , u will be maimed infact Commander RB was even lenient, commander SATA is deadly, the COBRA will not kill u but chase and whip u, sha , who do you think u are malozi to disturb our peace? mutekanye sana nibata kukunya malozi

  17. @11. Floyd Chitalu, PF Transport Minister Mukanga stopped the Chinese from constructing the RB initiated Mongu-Kalabo road claiming the project was political. But the same Minister has not stopped the construction of the RB initiated Pedicle road connecting Mufulira to his home province of Luapula. My question to you is why? There is nothing Western Province will benefit from your so called corruption fight (witch hunt). We want concrete development projects. Roads. Roads and Roads! Simples…..Without roads there wont be any meangful development in the province. And if the Zambian govt cannot do this simple task….why remain a part of a country that neglects you? At least I will congratulate Mr sata for identifying the problem as to why people are not happy in Western province!

  18. You voted for an *****, you will get *****ic decisions. Live with it. Next time you will be wiser not to vote for an ***** again. You have 4 years and 8 months with him! Get a life! By September 2016, many of you will be dead from poverty and starvation and Zambia will be back to importing food again. If you think I’m joking or being mean to PF govt just go to Mkushi and see how many commercial farmers are selling off their equipment and shipping off to Tanzania and many of them going BACK TO ZIMBABWE!!

  19. PLEASE TAKE TIME TO GO THROUGH THE BAROTSE AGREEMENT, THERE IS NO SINGLE PART OF IT DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND….. THE ENTIRE DOCUMENT JUST TALKS ABOUT EQUAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR WESTERN PROVINCE. PLEASE DONT PRETEND TO BE VERY DULL. EVEN A PERSON OF AVERAGE INTELLIGENCE SHOULD BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND THE CONTENTS.

  20. You can not call people under you to be weak even saddam,Amin and recently Gadafi said those words actually one of them called his people rats. The educated president will rush to the table and discuss this issue not putting on a military uniform to scare lozis. David v goliat,armour is not the best way to win you guys check history. A 

    • This is the problem I see with Zambians when discussing important issues—-half truths!!! Where in the statement above did the President call people weak?!! He said, quite: “there is no need for the people of western province to be confrontation as they are on the weaker side.” Obviously the “weaker side” of the BA64 issue. How someone can interprate this statement to mean “Lozis” are weak is really intellectual laziness!

  21. NOTHING FOR THE DOGS, WE HAVE TO RULE THEM FOREVER, ONE ZAMBIA -ONE NATION, AND THAT LEADER KING COBRA, WHOEVER WANTS TO TAKE THE LAWS IN HIS HANDS, THE LAW WILL VISIT HIM.

    • We have to rule them who are you????? Sata ‘s daughter or just some poor Bemba out there? What is “we” in your blog?? Is it a monarch ?.DOG !

  22. Ba Sata ngamulishilu mule ikala fye! read what you said in the Post newspaper of Jan 8, 2011: Barotse Agreement is valid-Sata, “We have always said we have nothing to fear about the Barotse Agreement. It is a decent agreement that must be honoured,” Only crooks, dictators who want everything to be controlled by them from Lusaka can fear the Barotse Agreement”
    Sata you said that as if that aint enaf u went on to advise RB saying, ‘Sata maintained that the Barotse Agreement was still legitimate and President Rupiah Banda simply needed to show honour by acknowledging its validity and existence!!

    If u advised RB to acknowledge Barotse, why cant u show us that you are the man of action and acknowledge the Agreement?

  23. What do you expect when you put a liar in that office? RB was sure an angel than him. He is able to lie just like that and zambians believed him.

  24. It is so simple to sit down with these lozis and chart out this issue.Most of the people from there are not talking about cutting off actualy even the agreement itself has no print of succession in it. Why the presido can not come up and say guys let us talk,what is your view? Instead they sit back and send the police now they even put on military uniform to scare people. Lozis are not cowards not even for a minute believe me you by nature they are brave.you can kill hundred of them but it won’t solve this issue. I wouldn’t kill even one lozi for this issue. Pray for wisdom Sata like Solomon did believe me there is a better solution. You who are hiding behind your PCs and shout kill them they are weak all need mercy.

  25. What is happening pa zed now if it was a dream I will call scary dream if it’s a movie , a horror movie

  26. mwamba,sata,malama want to go and harm the pipo of barotseland when to their homeland they took a university.why then can u not just set up a police sch in barotseland becz u seem fond of the place.some of u will regrate one day.becoz in kaliloze gun firing we just call yo name and shot at the sun.its 15mins then u are gone.keep on.bring the fight.

  27. Sata is calling for DIALOGUE on the Barotse issue. Justice Minister Sebstian SIZE Zulu says there will be NO INDABA on the Barotse issue. Defence Minister Mwamba meanwhile is assuring the nation that the POLITICIANS behind the Barotse issue will be soon ARRESTED! My question is: Does this govt have a policy on the Barotse issue or as always; they are still working it out individually and separately from each other!

  28. yo tricks have caught up with u.u ran a proxy war with angola from barotseland soil.alot of infrustucture was desroyed in angola becoz of yo guns.u armed unita,unita who killed thousands of pipo,u hav alot of blood on yo hands,the devil is yo ally.santos was almost toppled becz of yo support.angola will hit u very very very hard.40%of barotse are angolans,majority the mbundas.what is it u kept in barotselnd which makes u sad to let go of them.u ar bahaving like nebugadneza and pharo.theie times came ans their going was sad.u think u a hero by threatening pipo with arrest.there will be a precious gift all u guys will never foget.

  29. I am sure your comments are delibaretely meant to frustrate unity! I urge all of you people to read and reread the Barotse Agreement of 1964.It actually calls for unity not to cut off Barose Land. It says;Northen Rhodesia and Barose land shall proceed to independence as one state please! It calls for central govt to finance developments in Barose land just like any other area.What honouring the agreement are people asking for apart from development of Western province? I actually would surpport the PF govt to honour the agreement by developing western province!
    People read before commenting! Why are you peaceful Zambians now thirsty for conflict?

  30. The lozi’s are Naturally selfish, I hope they can be patient with Sata, he’s an honest man to solve this problem.Some muzungu has paid those Lozis to secede,so that they exploit the wealth,The natural minerals found there oil,gold,copper etc.I admire MC Sata,Man of action,you learned *****s leave my president alone,RB was selfish and liar,some of you never stayed with RB he was a sweet talker,you cannot believe a thing he said,am sorry learned theives who wanted RB not kick back Cobra in charge the street vendors,kaponyas etc are enjoying,we will give him another term 10 years…..

  31. Fred Mmembe you dog, where are you to speak for the voiceless now? If this was RB, you would have been reminding him of his earlier utterances regarding BA64, on a daily basis. God can’t be fooled, you and cobra will soon face justice.

  32. Josef something is wrong somewhere and not just wrong but extremely wrong mate.you are seeing some reasoning space but others are geared to unleash the army,now you see why graduate should be a requirement for presidential candidate.Sata thinks this is the same with mishanga sellers shouting for a bus from kitwe at inter bus terminus in lsk.
    To be a leader people should see your concern in there cry and take long to loose it,be part of them and be seen to resolve the matter. But honestly to put on that Gadafi cap and call lozi weak while you are still solving some issues is ignorance at it’s highest level. His attributes are pathetic for a republican presido even some chiefs are wise. I know he is not educated but at least at that age wisdom should be alternative.

  33. I will not be surprised to see the man in the picture above collapsing with a heart attach or stroke. he is inviting pressure on himself. there are are important issues to work on sure and on this one, he should go slow using simple and commons means of discussions. his wrath is getting to its highest boiling point.

  34. The Post used to set the agenda for RB and now it appears the ZWD has taken its place and the president seems to be reacting to their falsehoods. I have never believed the trash on the watchdog about Barotseland and Sata must be careful because he might end up waking a sleeping giant.

  35. Who is that Goliath above?who gave him those armours you people? Lozis bring out you malengeni he is too big to miss. 90 days constitution,90 days  barotseland,90 days money in your…90 days …..all lies only. Don’t even think about it you promised them ,they are not being confrontational.we also need money in the pockets.just remove that big bully uniform and be real. Cheating your way into power is the same with military coup. Lozi believe in themselves do not push them like that.hope you have not called them rats already like someone I know did call libyans 

  36. If these flags are anything to go by, most of you bloggers are outside Zambia. Most of you are cowards and cannot even use your real names. Secondly, most of the comments are wildly childish. immature and irresponsible. @no 7, do not refuse to think, because that is what you are doing. Most of you bloggers have no idea what chaos does to a country. Keep calling for it and you may just taste of it.

    • u r racking iskuru! the flags dont mean anything we are very much here! am just from hustling through traffic on cairo road

  37. Lozi pls he was joking with I know he is not your cousins but ignore. He also joked with the whole country that he will put money in our pockets when he meant ” arresting anyone with money in the pocket” and bicycle.he is allergic to bicycle,motorbikes and a lot of money.

  38. Don’t confront him he is deadly and ignorant. I wouldn’t  face him in that uniform and the army behind him which has never fought any war they might just be excited to test their skills on civilians with that fat minister of defence who failed to come down a military tanker.RB was a graduate this one can kill on sight,he is from KMB.

  39. Seeing Sata in that uniform reminds me of Ghadaffi…..Hmmmmmm! Coincidence??? Other than the way they ascended to power, there are alot of similarities, issuing warnings day in and day out!

  40. I like a man in uniform :) True Barotses will chill. The others will get it sooner or later. Starting work on the screenplay. Now I just have to work Jet Li into the script. He’ll play the unacknowledged son of a Namibian Lozi and disputed first born heir to the throne. We mixed bloods will ride to the rescue. Action, political thriller, historical saga. You heard it here. Will post the link for the cartoon and novel soon :) Not kidding.

  41. And what’s up with my flag today? I wouldn’t mind if it were an elephant on a red flag. Will match my msisi :)

  42. THE MAJORITY OF THESE COMMENTS ARE DEFINATELY COMING FROM A SMALL TRIBAL PART. THIS PART WILL DO ANYTHING TO GO TO STATE HOUSE. THE LEADER OF THIS PART BEHAVES LIKE A HEADLESS CHICKEN…. I WONDER WHAT IS IN THE HEAD OF THE HEADLESS CHICKEN’S FOLLOWS COZ THEY ARE SO BLINDED WITH SELFISHNESS AND STUPIDITY…. GUESS WHO THEY ARE……..

  43. “The Barotse Agreement is still a valid agreement,” Sata said. “How can you ignore an agreement that was signed, sealed and delivered almost 47 years ago?”

  44. Dont be fooled he is only wearing his vintage colonial police uniform. If you put that on you will be forgiven to feel everyone else is on the ‘weaker side’, the uniform itself does the graindiose magic.

  45. All it requires really is political will. The BA64 is a good starting point to deveolve decision – making to the provinces. We need a team of international lawyers, aided by Chongwe, to commemnce proceedings simultaneously in Zambia, Commonwealth, African Union and UN so that we do not arrive at another piece of paper that the GVT of Zambia will simply ignore, as our dear beloved KK did. If you read the records in British houses, you will understand that the British only acquiesced to the BA because of nationalist pressure and also mainly because they believed KK was very honesty, above board and would implement the agreement to the letter.Sata – Sakeni – malama = Mwamba – have arms financed by Chikwanda, but the people have the spirit, zeal, mox

  46. We are in trouble. The situation is chaotic. A 90 days campaign promise is not anywhere near fulfillment. we told pipo to listen that this man is not capable of running the country now we are in great entertainment at the expense of good governance. My soul………………. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  47. @ 53 sunshine you dont seem to thing straight you are behaving like a chicken with a head that can think for its self. A lot of pipo who voted for PF are not talkin now except empty heads like you wake up, we going into a pit with this your man.

  48. Is it not about time we prided in our country and successive governments? Don’t make a circus of a good country.

    Let everything be done in an orderly way, following laid down procedure. Failing to do things this way in the root to criminality.

  49. “Sata said the Barotse Agreement was not about secession but a higher and advanced form of national unity”: How come people are leaving out this sentence? Why selectively quote an article?

  50. Sata will decentralise the management of western province so the Litunga can manage your affiairs. hence the need for dialog. But if you need to secede, thats a different issue, not in the BA64.

  51. Sadly from past blogs it is clear many choose to not read BA64 and even if they do – do not get it. Child of the Sky makes sense but don’t hold your breath. Time will tell if current govt will get it right. In the meantime let’s hope people resist the urge to rewrite history and ignore an error made in the Kaunda error. If you can accept being named Zambia and ‘given’ independence then you can swallow BA64 coz it was the deal. Full stop.

  52. Chitalu..#.. You have a very serious problem like your grand father SATA. SATA on his own words promised Western province that BA64 is valid document supported by the post news paper and the SATA will restore it in the first three month of his rule or in short 90 days. Many people who fought this issue since 1964 advised him yo stop but he kept on saying, it is a valid document, and the western province people believed him. Their votes made SATA to beat RB in the election. Now with this big body man from the Ministry of defence, saying some who lost election are behind the confusion in western province. He must be told now here that western province what separation from Zambia and when that happen, other provinces will follow. 

  53. If the comments made here are a representation of the thinking of the literate Zambians, then education as a tool in all its forms, is very blunt. Most of you are the kind of Zambians I make sure I stay away from, be it at home or abroad. You are such a disgrace to our mother country.

  54. Just bungling his way around, fake money, 90 days fake promises, double salary, donchi kubeba, chinese u-turn, christmas time for reconciling, street vending etc etc. Seems 90 days is not even enough to learn the basics of state craft.

  55. LAWLESS *****S, COWARDS, WEAKLINGS. YOU FAILED TO PUT PRESSURE ON 5 PRESIDENTS WHO INFACT FAILED YOU AND YOU WANT TO HARASS THE ONE WHO HAS EVEN SHOWN SOME SIGNS OF TAKING YOU SERIOUSLY. EVEN IF I WERE NOT TO BE A DICTATOR YOU ARE DEFINITELY ENCOURAGING ONE TO BE DICTATORIAL. UMULOMO MWE MBUSHI MWE. GIVE PEOPLE SPACE TO WORK. FOOLS AND RETARDS. SOME OF US WANT A FUNCTIONAL COUNTRY. LET THE GOVERNMENT I VOTED FOR WORK IN PEACE.

  56. Kill these terrorists,you aint seen nothing yet, we are willing to spill our blood for our country Mr President, take them out push them back where their fore fathers came from oops the again no one wants these drunken trouble makers, GBM send us in we shall make sure to get the ring leaders, make them watch us cleanse their whole clan, including their chickens. Under international law we are allowed to protect every inch of our borders, we are allowed to kill, and we need to take out at least 10,000 a day ,one hour of bombing them would be enough

  57. HOW THE F.UCK DOES ANYONE WORK WITH ALL THIS NOISE IN ONE’S EARS????? HOW WOULD YOU WORK IF EVERYDAY YOUR BOSS WAS PRE-EMPTING THE MISTAKES YOU MIGHT MAKE WHICH YOU HAVE NOT YET MADE WHICH YOU WERE NOT GOING TO MAKE ANYWAY????? WE ARE ALL FOR A PROPER SOLUTION TO THE BAROTSE AGREEMENT, BUT THIS TALK TALK NIGHT AND DAY, SATA THIS PRESIDENT THAT, IS ANNOYING. YOU DID NOT DO THIS TO BANDA BECAUSE YOU KNEW HE WOULD F.UCK YOU UP. INFACT, HE F.UCKED YOU UP. WHAT ARE YOU DOING ABOUT THAT? MWANAWASA, CHILUBA, THEY ALL WOULD HAVE F.UCKED YOU UP. SATA CAN F.UCK YOU UP TOO BUT HE IS LOOKING INTO THE ISSUE. YOU ARE LIKE LITTLE CHILDREN WHO PROVOKE SOMEONE AND THEN WHEN THAT PERSON SLAPS YOU YOU CRY THAT HE IS A BULLY. GROW THE F.UCK UP!!!!!! IT IS YOU WHO WILL CAUSE CHAOS, NOT SATA OR PF. SWINE!!!!!

  58. BA64 isn’t about creating a state but delivering development to all parts of zambia which barotse is part of..so shut up if u don’t have any info on the issue

  59. Latest on QFM , my COBRA says the whites errored to have given Barotse to Litunga , they didnt know ethnicity of other tribes who were supposed to be part of B64, hahaha.. this man is the man to liberate Zambia, so Nkhani yasila soon he will use presidential powers vested in him to squash off that stupid B64 document. Get a life Lozi’s if u cant beat them Join them.

  60. Good evening

    #80 That’s more like I see it too (apart from the “F” word!) I am worried that there are too many voices all wanting to be heard and all giving their opinnion over and over again on how best they think the problem should be solved.

    But whatever the outcome, people should realise that the current government will be held responsible. In this case, it is important to let them do their work peacifully

  61. # 38 Josef. You ‘ve lost me. Zambians are simply asking Mr Sata to own up and honour his words to restore BRE as he promised. You claim those calling for Sata to respect what he promised are agitating for conflict with state. You haven’t taken leave of your senses? Who is threateng the other between innocent poor Zambians and state? Is it not Mr Sata who has issued threats and has deployed army personnel in Western province? Is it not his defence minister has issued threats to arrest all those calling for Sata to honour his promises during the campaigns before elections?. You can’t defend Sata’s promises and you are not the only one who understands the BRE better. Previous govts never made promises Sata did. Let him now explain to people of western province and not you.

  62. It is him who looks too old and weak to withstand blows. Whatever he means barotseland includes SP and NWP who will be ready to help out the lozi and defeat the tribalist. DRC should have completed the cutting of zambia into two

  63. 80 Llyod Bemba  you can protect your boarder we are also protecting the Barotsee boarder! Calm down your poor heart may stop working like what happened to your father in 1998. Who do you think you are ? Stupid ***** sit down!

  64. 80 Llyod Bemba  you can protect your boarder we are also protecting the Barotsee boarder! Calm down your poor heart may stop working like what happened to your father in 1998. Who do you think you are ? Stup1d  id1ot  sit down!

  65. Stup1 d people supporting this useless system just because the creature on top speaks Bemba even when they are gaining nothing just because he can donate the Govt lodge to a local catholic church nonsense ! Get a life leave people live there life you have nothing to offer. 

  66. Lozis are just asking king cobra to fulfil the promise one of the 90 days promises, how is this an offence?even Gadafi had that type of uniform it’s really for cool men hope saddam didn’t have it. 

  67. @84; NINE CHALE: I HEAR YOU. I WILL TRY NOT TO GET EMOTIONAL. I WILL ALSO TRY TO DESIST FROM USING THE “F” WORD. THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME THAT IT IS ABOUT REASON AND NOT RAVING. IT IS ANNOYING, THOUGH, WHEN PEOPLE TALK SO MUCH NONSENSE OUT OF MALICE RATHER THAN DEBATE WITH FACTS AS THEY STAND. WHEN ITS ALL SAID AND DONE, YOU ARE RIGHT, IT IS THE GOVT. THAT WILL BE HELD RESPONSIBLE, SO THEY SHOULD BE GIVEN SPACE TO DO THEIR WORK.

  68. As a proud Mulozi I dont get intimidated by old men with weak hearts in military attire! That uniform is FAKE! His Army is FAKE. 900 of them were captured and stripped naked by Foday Sankoh’s child soldiers in Sierra Leone in 1998. They recently went hiding again in Sudan instead of protecting the civilians they were tasked to. This is not a fighting outfit to be scared off! It is simply fake!

  69. And what is this tradition by our Zambian presidents who have no millitary background wearing army uniforms??? Yes you are the commander in chief (honorary millitary), don’t belittle the sacrifice it takes to earn a millitary uniform. To this day I don’t remember seeing the likes of Churchill, FDR, Reagan, Gorbachev, Helmut kohl, or today’s Obama wearing millitary fatigues. Intimidation factor? Let the true soldiers wear the uniform, concentrate on being the “Commander and Chief” without faking the millitary look!

  70. Well well well. If Sata thinks that we have been laying on our larels after Bwezani shot at us, he better think twice. And if he reckons we are the weaker side, I wish him good luck because he truly needs it. This time around there will be no stones thrown in return for fire, it will be a tooth of a tooth, an eye for an eye and indeed fire for fire. We are ready for action, “ssesi tahe, kauke sitahe lu sainiselelize hakusana sese shokota ni sesi kana seluka saba luna bana ba poho yensu”

  71. @Ireena- whether intimidated or not, that old man with a weak heart has the power to order a mass murder in western province. But he won’t. He is handling this issue better than Banda did and you have to laud himfor that.

  72. #94, Ha ha ha, I stillrecall the whole entire Zambian battalion being captured by Foday Sankoh, rag tags in Sierra Leone. No wonder one of his acts was to send KK to Angola knowing only too well that any insurgence will arise from Angola, Namibia and Botswana. Well, he better realise he is the one who is weak here, the next thing he will realise is the Barotse Liberation Army storming Nabwalya looting and pillaging his hood.

  73. Michaelme@87&88 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;you have no border my man,you are nothing but a drunkard club, try it we shall see how fast the nalikwanda peddlers will swim when we make bullet holes in it, its for this reason we walk all over and shag you women senseless, we breed with them, show me in London how many lozi women date Lozi men, you are weak drunks can,t even get it up

  74. Ha Ha ha ha. Constable sata is sweating. Running a country is not like being a colonial informer. Give the lozis what you promissed them you cheap liar. You are a shameless liar, who lies at night, lies in the morning and lies in the night. Look at you shit constable. At 77 years you think you can tell the lozis some bed time stories to send them to sleep while you channel all state coffers to Muchinga.

  75. You thought rounding up a few lozis and sending them to emabassies would do the trick. They are smart people and they no that they wont benefit from these cheap appointments

  76. What people forget is if the one province declares independent, others will do the same and the end is total war. Feel sorry for the lozis but the language on ZWD and type of hate spearhead by that website is unpresented and uncalled for. How will UPND rule when they are actually the majority in tha parliament? or Why always wanting to frustrate PF led govt? If the Lozis want they way confrontation will never achieve them anything. Dialogue is the best because people who suffer most are women and children. Some of the bloggers on are overseas and they will never feel the pain, fear, anguish, running to hide from unwarranted and avoidable senario. Some are writing like as if they are Lozis when they are not.Leave the lozis from your hate that you have been exhibiting on ZWD.

    • True – actually most of them are writing from the comfort of their rooms abroad. Its is also surprising that the ZWD’s editor who is exile in fear of MMD he is now supporting them now that they HH has decided to partner with MMD. ZWD are taking Zambians for granted.

  77. Ladies and Gentlemen – It quite clear that this confusion is being orchestrated by quite a selfish minority with selfish motives and quite frankly they are also politically motivated. Just look at the blogs above, there are only about 5 bloggers who constitute about 80% of postings with a guise of representing Lozis. While the internet has advantages this time, it is being used by a few disgrantled and selfish individuals to destablise a peaceful country. I am pretty sure that the majority of Lozis are not stupi d to be asking for independence only 3 months after voting in a new govt with the president that understands their issues. Just look these bloggers above;# PF IS STRICTLY FOR BEMBAS ONLY and MICHAELME – Do we really need people like these to freely post divisive filth?

    • If you need someone to explain it t you in simple English, you needn’t bother. just continue living your uncomplicated life you simpleton

  78. Can someone tell me the following: (1) How big Barotseland is in terms of population and size, (2) What the official language is? (3) Will Lozis living in Zambia qualify for dual citizenship, because I need mine too.

  79. this is just a drinking club, KK blanked them, Chiluba blanked them, Mwanawasa pissed on them, RB taught them some manners. Now in comes Sata within a month of winning the elections, he tries to sort some out with the chongwe commision, what does the barotse club do??????? Blame Sata for all their failures, when they are too drunk to even ran a kachaso club these Lozi,s are taking the piss, thinking the new govt is a push over, don,t Kubeba PF show them your wrath, what can they do that they have failed to do in 48 years now;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;this club best put up and shut up

  80. US LOZI MEN YOU COME ON-LINE FIGHTING A LOSING BATTLE, WHEN ALL OUR WOMEN ARE MARRYING OR SHACKING UP WITH BEMBA,S OR NIGERIANS IN LONDON, WHATS WRONG WITH US, WE ARE A BLOODY JOKE. ARE WE TOO STUDIP OR JUST TOO WEAK TO PLEASE OUR WOMEN, I AM HERE ON THE PC MY SISTER IS WITH A BEMBA THIEF IN THE NEXT ROOM AND MY AUNTY IS WITH A ONE LEGGED 9JA MAN IN THE OTHER ROOM, WHAT HAS BECOME OF US OUR WOMENS CHILDRENS NAMES ARE NOW MULENGA,BUPE,ADESOLA,KOFFI,CHILUFYA,TEMBO ETC WHY WHY//?? WE WAKE UP IN THE MORNING SAYING BRE AGREEMENT BLA BLA BLA GET DRUNK SLEEP, WAKE SOME ROUTINE GOD HELP US.

  81. firstly, Sata was not threatening military action against innocent Lozi people but the disgruntled few purportrated to have or wishing to form a new government in Baroasteland! Zambia is an independent nation with a GRZ legitimately voted into power 90days ago & anyone calling for/wishing to form a parallel government in any part of Zambia is in deemed a threat to the state & its people. thus, the threat being internal is “an act of civil war”. this disgruntled collection are indeed weaker in full sense as Sata put it becoz he has the full backing of Zambia Army, ZAF, ZP, ZNS, OP etc. continued…

  82. AT THIS RATE WE SHALL RAN OUT OF LOZI CHILDREN, ENDING WITH A BOLASOLA. ADESOLA, MUSONDA OR TEMBO FOR A LITUNGA WATCH THIS SPACE, LETS TALK AGAIN IN 2031 BECAUSE PF WILL LOSE THE ELECTION THAT YEAR, MAKE MY WORDS THAT WILL BE THEM DONE AFTER RULING US FOR FOUR TERMS, GOOSH I AM HIGH NOW THIS STRONG BREW I DRUNK AND THE SKUNK IS HITTING ME NOW SIGN OFF, BRE CLUB CHAIRMAN SHANGOMBO MUNDIA

  83. continued….A sensible approach would have been to engage Sata/PF & ask bane “90days are up how far with BA64” U can liken this situation to “an employee (PF) who promises to deliver a report on a said date…come the said date the report is not on the Bosses (Electorate) Desk the employee finds the Boss clearing his desk and replacing him! Only problem is the employees contract is legally binding for 5years and not based on a 90day theory. and in all honesty those of you who voted for PF based on the 90day theory must slap yourselves for being shallow minded to believe Zambia’s problems could be solved in 90days! 

  84. Those calling for succession, we are now in a democracy “power to the people” it would entail we hold a referendum. give us the boundary of Baroasteland and let the people within the boundary vote whether they want to be independent from Zambia under the rule of the BRE! Highly doubt the referendum would go your way!

  85. Hi Lozis extremists..calm the fk down..The few disgrubtled lozi troubler maker including Ireen do not warrant military intervetion..We will just send two Landrovers (the Kaunda type) with 14 mobile paras to clean the mess. You may hide in the sand we will smoke you out. Dont push your lucky, the Commander in Chief has given you the last warning.

  86. Sometimes it makes me so sad to hear people comment on issues and I always wonder if the education we receive in Zambia really creates intellectuals. One day many Zambians will wake up to a rude shock realizing too late that peace is more important than war. People talk about bloodshed and verbal assassinations through tribal hatred because they have not seen what war can do. Some of us work in countries where we have seen war physically and what misery it brings and when I hear many of you talk, I feel sorry for our country. Be wise in the things you say and please guard the PEACE WE HAVE IN ZAMBIA.

  87. If you conduct a census, you will realise that aba Lozi baf***la are very few. Therefore, they qualify t be termed ‘weak’ !

  88. 85 Muna Dekhane.I am so disappointed with you zeal to be sarcastic! This platform is meant to debate issues and not insult others okay? Sata said he was going to honour and not restore the 1964 agreement! If you can read what he said yesterday,you are going to agree with the legitimacy of the Agreement. How do you restore what never existed? For your information a number of people with different ethinic background live in western province and while Lozis want to cut it off Nkoyas and Luvales are not for the idea.Are we only interested in listening to the Lozis or what?

  89. WHEN THE PRESIDENT SAID THE GROUP WHICH IS CONFROTATION OVER THE BA64 IS WEAK, HE DIDNT MEAN THE LOZIS ARE WEAK, BUT THAT THIS GROUP IS WEAK COMPARED TO THE MIGHT GRZ.

  90. this is not zami,ZP,OP no no.it is malama,sata,mulenga all mazwahule trying to intimidate very brave pipo.Yo socalled army u ar proud offis the weakest in the continent if u didnt known.they just go round with guns they failed to use when they went to a place callad sudan they chased for cowardice.they fail even to arrest mailon brothers.what moer with 10 thousand mailons.yo soldirs,captured in angola,captured in sera lone,investigated for cowadice.one de u will fail to go to shoprite

  91. Ba SATA, we are behind you. Ignore Austin Mbozi and Given Mutinta of the Watchdog. Mbozi and Mutinta’s rantings are just tarnishing the good image of the Tonga people. We know Tongas are good people. So do not get distracted by the Watchdog writings of Mbozi and Given Mutinta, who are jealousy and hate-filled people. It is sad that with the little education Mbozi has received can insult elderly people and street vendors. Mr President, you saved us from Rupiah’s wanton destruction of our country, and we still believe that you can turn things around, and help build Zambia for the good of Zambians, so long you listen to people’s cries, advice,especially well meaning people. We know you did not grease your way to State House with lies.

  92. Almost 50 years after independence, our education has not helped Zambians be better discussants. It’s indicative of the poverty of ideas in our communities. Dont expect a society whose level of discussion is so shallow to move ahead in the world.

  93. IM ADVISING U ALL WHO POSTS THEIR COMMENTS ON THIS PLATFORM PLEASE BEFORE YOU COULD POST YO MA RUBISH,U WERE SUPPOESD TO READ THE BAROTSE DOCUMENT WHICH WAS SIGNED BY KENNETH DAVID KAUNDA THE BY THEN PRIME MINISTER OF NORTHERN RHODESIA,SIR MWANAWINA LEWANIKA,LITUNGA AND DUNCAN SANDYS.AND NOT BY SATA,THE DOC DOES NOT IN ANYWAY TALK ABOUT BAROTSE BEING INDEPENDENT.INFACT THE BLAME SHOULD GO TO LITUNGA WHO HAS DISTANCED HIMSELF FROM ITS PIPO.PLIZE PIPO LETS LEARN TO READY BEFORE OUR IGNORANCE IS PUBLISHED
