  1. You were blaming RB for traveling 2 much…Wamona nomba iwe?? dont say things you shouldnt say coz it makes you look like you were desperate to be the presindent

  2. Welcome Mr President….The ACTION man, no more promises. Work on the economy of the majority Zambians (so far good direction just ensure more jobs, more opportunities for all-not those few). Also deliver the constitution,no more wastes of cash

  3. After the backlash that arose from his toilet acrobatics in Botswana, Zimbabwe, Angola and the UK, one would have thought Sata and his advisors would stop, reflect and realise that Zambians are NOT up to the perpetual dosage of embarrassment that now seem synonymous with Sata trips abroad. The highly uncalled for interjection of Mozambican President Armando Guebuza’s speech, that also violated norms of protocal, only point to a severe case of mental retardation on the part of Sata. To add salt to injury, how could a president throw such a sick joke to a serious problem like this one that has potential to ignite war and death to thousands if not millions? His goons can say whatever they want, that he is a mental retard is but a foregone conclusion!

  5. We thank God for granting HEMCS safety. Likewise, may the Lord grant him wisdom to lead this great nation Zambia and humility to take advice from friends and foes. May words of love and peace spring from his mouth. May the Lord constrain every tongue that would seek to unleashes anger, hatred and pain in and out of Government in Jesus Christ name.

  6. Welcome back. Can you also deliver a speech to the nation concerning jobs, more money in our pocket, education, health etc?

  7. I cant understand how a Malwian can comment on anything, the second most backward people after the Papau Guineans

    • If ‘the second most backward people after the Papua Guineans’ can comment on anything just goes to show how disgusting what they are commenting on is.

  8. consider yourself dumb if you didn’t get the President’s joke.

    Have you all been to the refugee camps in Zambia?

    • its not about getting the president’s joke (which wasn’t even funny) its about the joke being in bad taste considering the seriousness of the matter being discussed. He was not in the Zambian parliament where such bull can be expected.

  9. Japhen Mwakalombe the ambassador to mozambique must be praised for taming the Cobra , u see , he never made as many mistakes as he has done in other countries that he ha visited, so SATA made a good choice on this ambassador. Promote him to go to either china or US

  10. You should have stayed there and become a Mozambican.We certainly don’t need gaffe prone officials,ill mannered and ill educated folks and village headboys like you representing us at such important fora.

  11. Whatever ! Consider yourself mentally challenged if you didnt get the presidents joke.Malawians can hung themselves.

  12. I and many others do not get Sata’s jokes. The mark of a great President Like Mao-tse-Tung, Castro, Kennedy, Reagan, Clinton, Obama, Kaunda etc, is the art of being a great communicator. If your jokes are always seen to be off colour then you better get serious.

  13. We thank the almighty God for granting you safe passage. May the good Lord grant you good health, wisdom and knowledge as you lead this great nation. God bless you reachily. We love you

  14. Sata’s advisors may you save as from further embarassment.Organise some diplomatic lesson at State House to equip Sata with some diplomatic skills even though it is difficult to train old dogs new skills

  15. Under the assumption of normality, the least estimates of UPND and MMD that PF will fail are the same as the maximum likelihood that PF will win. This is consistent and asymptotically unbiased based on the following election results which are used to test the null hypothesis of winning and the counter hypothesis of loosing for each party.
    UPND:  26.76%  25.32% 19.70%  18.17% 
    MMD:    28.69%  42.98%  40.09%  35.42%
    PF:         3.35%  29.37%  38.13%  41.98%
     

  16. Instead of calling Malwaians all sorts of names, assess Sata’s comment. I for one think it was in bad taste. Those of you that do not have an inkling or aorta of the suffering that people who have been displaced go through, will have ‘a laugh’, as it were. An issue about potential conflict between Tanzania and Malawi is raised at a meeting of heads of state. Instead of deliberating in constructive dialogue that aims at preventing an escalation of the matter, SATA throws in a so-called joke about ‘hosting the refugees’ that will come as a result. Some people on this blog are ready to defend the ‘joke’. Its like telling two persons to go ahead and fight, because in anycase there is an ambulance waiting outside to ferry them to the hospital.
    How distasteful!

    • Ba Harold Muna,there are so many heartless people in Zambia who, just for the sake of defending Sata just because he is a fellow tribesman, will close their eyes to every embarrassment. I am so embarrassed today to be a Bemba to say the least. 

  17. @Floyd Chitalu 32
    You have the data, but they choose to count cows as voters
    Nati bakalila muchi tonga nafuti,  

    • Is this the sort of Zambia you want, where political parties are defined by ethnic lines? Even Kenya has left us in the dust.

  18. In lieu of attempting to attribute the research based formular qualitatively or quantitatively in a wrong way to the biased non-scientific findings which are as expected in favour of Mr. Sata, Floyd Chitalu improve your skills in both qualitatative and quantatitive research methods so that you aid your exponents of PF rank and file membership. Do not just write anything that which happens under the influence of your ID without using your super ego. I am of the view that Europe has a reasonable number of credible universities or I can offer you distant education via internet. viva the Zambian opposition in particular Mr. HH’s crew(UPND)
