Summoned former transport and communication minister Dora Siliya this afternoon failed to avail herself for questioning before a combined team of law enforcement officers over the sale of Zamtel.

Ms. Siliya was expected to report at the task force offices in Lusaka’s woodlands area at about 14 00hrs.

Journalists waited in vain the whole afternoon for Ms Siliya who was expected by the law enforcement officers.

The officers from the investigative wings who were suppose to interrogate Ms Siliya were also made to wait in vain.

Reporters were later briefed by a police officer that Ms. Siliya was unable to come after waiting for her for about one hour, thirty minutes.

And when contacted via phone by QFM news, Ms. Siliya’s lawyer Sakwiba Sikota said he could not talk to QFM but later reversed his statement by promising to call back and give details concerning his client’s absence which he never did.

Police spokesperson Elizabeth Kanjela later told QM news that the police had been informed by lawyer Sakwiba Sikota that his client was unwell.

Ms. Kanjela noted that the police will consider rescheduling the dates for questioning to allow Ms. Siliya to recover.

  1. Ba Dora nabo baleimona kwati she’s a big fish in a pond called Zed eh??? will see where your arrogance takes you>>>

  2. Of course, she will refuse, I wouldn’t If i was her unless the people interviewing me are not witches, riddled from being yes men in the government
    We are talking about the justice system that has no credibility, where a politician is jailed and really gets a taxi home and is ‘serving’ their sentence

    No one has respect for Zambia’s judicial system ask Chungu, ask Kalumba ask the chilubas
    The country is backwards and really, its more fitting of Muppets looking after a club

    I am glad I am in Scotland where my life is second to none, sometimes I feel even disgusted responding to people even on this blog who quiet frankly are not even at my level let alone should be in the same blog as I am. I am too good for a lost of things that most Zambians do

    Thanks

    • Mushota i agree with you on the perception of our judiciary’s credibility, there is a lot of improvement required.

      But the way you despise your country and some of your coments make me wonder your intellectual and educational level, you come out like just one of those chaps excited of been in Europe and suffering from inferiority complex.

    • Mushota your spelling skills in English leave much to be desired. You are right when you say bloggers on this forum are not at your level, because you are too backward for them. Quiet instead of quite, lost instead of lot. Is this the English you are learning in the queens land?

    • mushita o wateva your name is. being in scotland does not mean you are at a level second to none. sucking the d***k for a dollar does not make you higher than us. 

  3. Ba Mushota kwena muli Chikopo and you think Scotland is heaven someone worked hard to get scotland where it is and you?You look at China you chap, this is the problem of the miseducation of the African.I hope you do not clean toilets and wipe shit from old white assholes!

    • I agree with Catholic Priest Milingo. Who made Scotland to be what it is? Mr Mushota is benefiitng from other people’s achievements. He is not even ashamed to bost about Scotland as if it is his homeland. Shame. Does he think that he is Scotish? The problem with children who feed from other people’s homes even insult their own parents when they find nice soup in other people’s homes. Go Go Zambia and abash Mushota

  4. I thought that this case was already handled by the Supreme Court. So, are the security agencies challenging the ruling of the Supreme Court?

  5. GOOD EXCUSE TO LOCK UP THIS LADY PLUNDERER . CAN THE IG PLEASE LOCK HER UP AND TEACH HER A LESSON FOR NOT REGARDING RESPECT TO THE COURT OF LAW AND NOT RESPECTING THE RULING HON JUDGE.LET HER BE IN FOR A LONG TIME SO THAT SHE CAN SHREAD SOME WEIGHT ON HER FAT BIG BUMS. I HATE THIS CRUEL LADY THIEF

  6. Ba Mushota keep ur comments and let, us patriots, who want to fight and put our country to the levels of Scotland or better so that people who think like you do, do not leave our beloved Zambia. Keep ur thinking or level to yourself. We love our people and we want our children, and the children of our children to come and appreciate this legacy that we are building. Amen

  7. This is not about corruption and the law. This is clearly vengeance. Mr. Sata is engineering all this. By the way, sir, you’re one of the most corrupt person in that country.

  8. When did she fall sick. So she just heard that nilelo milandu and instantly fell sick – ni mantha chabe kulibe vina iai. I think she is sick of all those men around her asking her how nice she is in bed or something similar after all she is on record of having good bums and the like. I even recall one of the villagers who wanted to “katako maziwa ya ADora” in Petauke after challenging men at a rally. Surely gentlemen are we all that cheap or dull to wait for one woman who does appear even after 30 minutes. They are just a bunch of fools thats all. I am also sure that they just wanted to see what she was wearing today. Just go to her home and bring her to the commission in her pyjamas and enjoy what you are after from her – the soft centre.
    Welcome back Mushota. I end here

  9. Poor lozis, all they talk about is the ‘Barotseland’ liberation, but when you ask them about the boundaries of the Barotseland, they are all as blank as a white sheet of rotatrium paper!

    Ask them about how possible it was to restore the BA64 without ‘creating a state within a state’, they straight away resort serious insults!

    Console them, they happily ask you you to join the struggle, afterall the boundaries of the barotseland is so large that it ‘includes even parts of foreign countries’!

    Thats why i have stopped commenting on their issue

  10. LT , Could you please ban, people like 3Rqu, there is sentiment or room, for such profanity. I just had a cold reading what he wrote

    It is absolutely disheartening, people like him who have no respect for women, do not deserve to be free let alone on LT

    He is just exposed his ignorance and should be got rid of my sight and other elite readers

    I am stunned

    Thanks

    • when you were sayn all what you said it was fine now that people have spoke andyou reduced to were you supposed to be you crie.

  11. Next appointment should be arranged with a constable at state house. He has a lot of questions that should make Dora scream before he releases….her.

  12. Dora, I wish you quick recovery and don’t give up. You are innocent until proven guilty. It was a pleasure meeting you in London at the Zambia High Commission. On this planet you cannot be liked by everyone. But you should know that no matter what happens I can even visit you in jail. This is life. Yes.

  13. Its needless to respond to police summons and ill report will sufice. Only courts of law can avail justice where all submissions and statements have been made. The police have lost their impartiality in the eyes of the public as they dance at the whims of higher powers.

  14. cant believe these MMD guys are still taking everyone for granted and the police are just ndwiiii. Someone stands you up for over an hour and all you say is we’ll try reschedule the meeting when you know where she leaves? come on she’s taking the police and all as fools,whats wrong with us negroz kanshi???! why should the police be moving at her pace? why didnt she communicate earlier to the effect that she’s unwell and will not make it?

  15. TO MUSHOTA…
    AFFECTATION!
    A show,pretense,or display.Behaviour that is assumed rather than natural,artificiality.A particular habit,as of speech or dress,adopted to give a false impression.

    Affectation is planted into a person through some kind of deficit or traumatic experience that makes them feel the need to be proven with their actions or abilities.(Rape,Molestation,Incest,Abandonment,Neglect,Abuse,Talent Affirmations,etc.) these things when the happen to a person,the person feels a need to pretend that they are o.k. and to show others that they are o.k,so rather than deal with the problem they put on a false identity!
    AFFECTATION is what homosexuals like Mushota thrive on and you can trust me with my life that ILL MANNERD STEP CHILD Mushota is hard core homosexual.

  16. please mushota respond to the allegations of 26,i believe he is true.what i think is that mushota you are really not what you claim to be..why do you always boast about yourself,there are more people out there far much better than you but don’t say it because its irrelevant to this blog.we have just learnt you are homosexual which to me seems to be very true.
    this Dora should help the authorities with their investigations,i don’t see the reason to be afraid if i know am innocent,she should heed the advice of katele kalumba.

  17. Of course one is innocent until proven guilty. But its not the first time Dora has ‘stood up’ the authorities. In due course, ‘azakabila kusogolo’

  18. Mushota a waste of human flesh. I hope this not another kafupi scheme. Getting sick and delaying justice. Please arrest this roches. Next we need arrests and arignment. Pleeease

  19. Is everyone on this site so dull? This is a tactic used by lawyers to avoid facing the law. Chiluba’s lawyer used the same tactic successfully. It is just Saki fooling around with you. Had it been you or me, the cops would have locked you up for not showing up. Keep watching! You’ll never see her in court at this rate.

  20. @ Miles #19, stop yapping n stick to the topic. BA 64 is real whether u like or not.
    No u haven’t stoped commenting on the issue, hypocrically thats what u have just done. Grow up n talk the context raised!

  21. # 19 you are just exposing your ignorance, the best you can do is read the BA 64 and understand it, to me you seem to be dull, actually very dull and infact you are commenting on a different topic from the one prevailing. How far did you go at school and which school did you go to?

  22. A fellow was accused of committing a felony and at the time police came after him, he was quite diseased and bed ridden. Can you imagine what the police guys told him? “THE BEST HOSPITAL IS THE POLICE CELL” Maybe and I mean maybe Dora’s ailment can so quickly vanish if she be quarantined in some jail cell.

  23. Dora knows that all these commisions of inquiry are bullshit and total wasteful expenditure in terms of money paid to the commissioners and time. She would rather be doing something worthwhile. When will Zambians wake up to reality and see what is happening in their country. Corruption comes in different ways and at times it comes in the form of fighting corruption.

  24. Those are delay tactics! The courts might just say wash-out, who knows! Keep on chewing your cash mama before they lock you up. hahaha

  25. The police is selective,if it was poor me,they were going to come to my home with assult rifles and take me cells

  26. problem our police is that they dont have secret,why informing the nation that today we are going to interview Dola.just do your work thus why u miss good information,police should be partial in there work to get better results from there client.They have to learn from lawyers,they will never disclose there defence until up to the court.

  27. # 19 stick to the current issue. I don’t expect you to comment on an issue you don’t grasp well. Our beloved constable at plot no 1did some research on a bank which was sold dubiously and he came up with answer he needed and i advise you to carry out the research on Barotseland and you’ll have answers you need.

  28. Ba Mushota,
    You are one of the most educated fools i have ever come cross, it at all you are educated enough. Do you think living in Scotland as a foreigner makes you intelligent. You can`t compared Zambia`s judicial system which is a LDC to that of Scotlant (DC). Mind we have men and women of high calibre in the judiciary, highly educated but working under very difficult conditions. Ba Mushota muli bapuba. Infact you are an insult to the Bemba fraternity and as a Zambian!

  29. Mushota is like a cripping plant which cannot get nutrients from the soil on its own but has to depend on other plants for its nutrition.

    Why boast of being in Scotland where you thrive on other people’s development when you have failed in, and run away from Zambia which is your country which you should have developed.

    This is why Mushota is the only one in Scotland who keeps talking about Zambia because she knows that her life in Scotland is a symbol of her being a failure in Zambia and who wants to parasitically depend and thrive on other people’s achievements. The sad part of it is that Mushota even boasts of the so called ‘nice’ life in Scotland but forgets to understand that she viewed as an intruder because none of what Scotland offers has she contributed.

  30. waona ci dodora matako we worned you that zamtel thing izakuletelela manje alikuti aRB AKUSIYA WEKA KAAAA.

  31. And Concerning Zamtel we have become a country of reversals – politically driven reversals.

    I hope these reversals will be in the interest of Zambians and not just politicians ego and vengence.

    We know that anyone wanting to invest in any country wants to be sure of the safety of his investments.

    He wants to be sure the agreements and memorandums are reliable.

    If every new day the contracts can be cancelled and processes reversed just because the political faces have changed, then no one will feel secure.

    I hope this goverment will be alert enough to learn from the results of their actions so that tomorrow they can do things better.

  32. @fine, What are you ranting man? Zamtel sell was corrupt from day one. Dora and LAP green were warned but did not listen coz they both corrupt. Let that corrupt evestment go somewhere than Zambia, what we need is honesty invest and not that which takes away the money of the poor Zambians. Zamtell is for Zambians and not libyians.

  33. Reverse the damn sale of ZAMTEL and lock those behind this fraudulent transaction! Why even waste time. Are we beginning to develop cold feet? Besides selling of such a national asset compromises the country`s security. It should have been reversed even before Finance Bank. Who is LAP Green now that Gaddafi and sons are dead, in jail or fugitives? Like RB & SONS.

  34. Power Failure to proceed on corruption by the previous regime ministers and many more to come. The fight should be in the court room by now. On the other hand the reversal of Zamtel sale prematurely before finding Dora guilty pre empts the professional manner to fight the so called corruption in the nation.

  35. Bo Dora, I thought you were smart like your boss RB once said. Please just show up and explain your side of the story. I hope the riches you boasted about were not ripped from the Zamtel deal. Lelo! lelo! lelo! lelo!

  36. Bo Dora, do not pretend to be sick. You just came back from SA and walking majestically, how come you have fallen sick when called upon by Police. Mind you pretence is what killed Chiluba, he always pretended to be a cardiac patient whenever he was was called to appear before the Task Force or Courts of Law, until one day he suffered a cardiac arrest for real. So Dora be strong and stop pretending. Those Lawyers are giving you wrong advice, we know them until they squeeze the last stolen Ngwee from your purse and then you start fighting through the media for non payment of legal fees.. be careful with Sikota, thats how he earns his living. He is always on the wrong side.

  37. I feels like yesterday when we raised an uproar over dora’s deals, but alas, she was so stupid to go ahead with those deals in the public domain. why did’nt she have the intellegence to do those which where not so hot/ Now she has to be paying lawyers and doctors for years. We shall even know that she suffers from this and that disease just to prolong the court cases. look at Mubarak in Egypt. If rB, Dora, kunda and the bunch could lose an election with all the money they had plus power, there is nothing they can win. They are the biggest losers in zambia’s history.

  38. Why has DORA been subjected to so many investigations? Am talking about the bicycles, airport saga, Zamtel saga? Can we be informed what crimes Dora commited in all these issues. If she stole, how much did she steal or what benefits did she acquire as a result of her so called ‘role’ in the case of the zamtel saga. Otherwise, some of us are lost. We dont know whether this crusade on her is prosecution for real or it is simply persecution.

  39. The net should be cast wider to bring in the Henry and his father, without wasting time. Bwezani can not just sale national assets like they are personal possessions. He must be held to account for abuse of office and crooked manner in which he awarded contracts, general graft and plunder of public resources during his tenure as president. Not many will be sorry for these thieves when even the Paramount Chief Mpezeni has given a green light to lift Bwezani’s immunity. Those responsible, should leave no stoned unturned in investigations.

  40. Dora should be thrown in male cell when convicted so that the men can have a good time playing with her bums. By the time she comes out her bums will be hard as a rock.

  41. Number 5 Mushota,dont insult us please you are jst an economc immigrante there and when u die you will come as cargo back here we will shika u here.walitumba sana wacepelya amon mumusana u are a dog in scotland if u dont know,they dont even count u as a human but as a chimpazi.Never insult Zambians like that again.f****** u.

  42. ZAMTEL REPOSSESSED—-WHOOOOOO THATS GREAT NEWS…NOW ARREST DORA,HENRY,JAMES AND RB LET THEM ANSWER TO ALL ALLEGATIONS LEVELED AGAINST THEM..THIS DEAL IS A REVERSAL SO ALL PROFESSIONAL ZAMTEL ENGINEERING STAFF WITH SKILL AND QUALIFICATIONS BUT WHO WERE DECLARED REDUNDANT BY THE NEW ZAMTEL MANAGEMENT, SHOULD RETURN TO WORK…BECAUSE EVEN THE RECRUITMENT PROCESS FOR THE NEW ZAMTEL STAFF WAS DONE UNDER CORRUPTION…..FORMER EMPLOYEES PAID MILLIONS OF KWACHAS FROM TERMINAL BENEFITS AS GRATIFICATION TO EMPLOYING PERSONNEL ,SO THAT THEY COULD GET A JOB IN THE NEW ZAMTEL.
    WITH THIS BACKGROUND EVERYTHING MUST BE REVERSED …..VIVA PF VIVA PF VIVA PF……

  43. I’m now not positive where you’re getting your info, however good topic. I must spend some time finding out more or working out more. Thanks for wonderful info I used to be searching for this info for my mission.
