UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema has justified the intent of opposition political leaders’ visit to the Commonwealth secretariat in South Africa to request for the organization’s intervention in the alleged violation of Commonwealth values and principles by the Patriotic Front government.

UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema has justified the intent of opposition political leaders’ visit to the Commonwealth secretariat in South Africa to request for the organization’s intervention in the alleged violation of Commonwealth values and principles by the Patriotic Front government.

Mr. Hichilema has told Qfm News that the move by opposition leaders to lodge a complaint to the Commonwealth Ministerial action group was not ill-intended but merely to find a lasting solution to the gross disregard of democratic principles by the PF.

He said that since coming into government, the PF has abrogated fundamental human rights contrary to the values endorsed by the Commonwealth.

Mr. Hichilema has since stated that leaders of the opposition that made a bold step to go to South Africa must not be condemned for merely requesting the Commonwealth to investigate human rights abuses by the PF government.

He says the opposition has tried every means to engage government on matters of national interest but that the government has not shown willingness to listen to advice.

Mr. Hichilema says it is therefore not strange for the opposition to engage the Commonwealth to investigate abuse of human rights by government.

Meanwhile, the national youth league of the National Restoration Party (NAREP) has expressed sadness over remarks made by Zambian opposition leaders at a press conference in South Africa.

The national youth league of the National Restoration Party (NAREP) has expressed sadness over remarks made by Zambian opposition leaders at a press conference in South Africa.

National Coordinator Aquino Mutale says MMD president Nevers Mumba, UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema and ULP leader SakwibaSikota should learn to place their priorities right.

Mutale says opposition leaders should know better than to discredit, castigate and undermine the state of the country in a foreign land.

He tells QFM that at no time has any opposition political party in the country been denied their freedom to hold press conferences from their respective secretariats.

Mutale says the opposition leaders need to ask themselves who would suffer the most if not the people of Zambia they claim to serve if the Commonwealth was to meet the demands they made.

He wondered where the leaders have placed their duties as citizens to promote and defend the country by shamefully openly attacking their state in the manner they did.

    • The lack of astuteness and the methods that HH and his cronies employ to try and gain power are not only unorthodox but go against the very tenets of democratic principles they is purporting to protect.

      If you want the govt to engage in constructive talks on your so-called issues of national interest, be specific and not use abstracts, be a leader not a cadre.

      I would urge you to spend some time with young Elias Chipimo jr so that you can learn humble yourself before the citizens and tackle issues objectively.

      I will not be surprised if Elias does better in 2016

    • Article 21. (1) Everyone has the right to take part in the government of his country, directly or through freely chosen representatives

      Question: Is UPND following this basic human right by forbidding its members from taking part in the government?

      Please practice what you preach.

    • @mfumu ya ndodo….. you know nothing about dagga, go and research. theyare many people who use dagga, look for the telltale signs, i can assure you HH is not one of the many… go to plot 1 and look at that face

    • YOU ARE RIGHT BRO. THHIS FELLA AND HIS BUNCH OF FRIENDS ARE SO DESPERATE THEY ARE GOING TO ANY LENGTH TO OBSTRUCT DEVELOPMENT. THE REASON IS SIMPLE- ALMOST EVERYONE IN THE OPPOSITION AND IN RB’s PAST GOVERNMENT IS A CROOK. THE DRAGNET IS TOO FAST FOR THEM. BUT THE MINISTRY OF HOME AFFAIRS MUST BE CAREFUL OTHERWISE RB WILL DO A HENRY BANDA. THE POLICE SHOULDN’T LET RB RUN AWAY THIS TIME AROUND.

    • Have you forgotten the Famous PF Rebel MP’s. when you join a Organization it means you are willing to abide by the rules and regulations but at some point if you feel you longer agree to their ideology you depart at free will just like you joined.

      so its not valid to want to remain in a party that you don’t agree with the philosophy.
      this is not an argument , if you love PF resign move to PF as simple as that.

      this is the style of men of the belly wanting to be in the north and south at the same time.

      wanting to drink juice and coffee at the same time.

    • Let’s not look foolish. Surely, is everything alright in Zambia? Are you ashamed that you have been exposed of your poor and ill intended leadership?

    • Just wait when you start frequenting the courts after Sata is gone & his stinking PF leaders, you will be pleading the way Savior Chungu pleaded!

      Amsterdan is an angel sent to help Zambians!

      HH is right unlike you paid up PF violent thugs here!

    • The problem with you people is that when someone with a vision fights for you looking at Zambia would become if such measures are not taken into consideration.Zambia is some animals are more equals others which is very bad.when opposition want to have rally,police will be on them,but when its pf no police harassment is not there.

    • People condemning the action taken by the opposition exposé the very reasons we are able to suffer persecution while we sing praises for those persecuting our fellow citizens. There are times that we “as Zambians” should step aside from party politics and put Zambia first. Only then will we start to take the necessary steps to true democracy. No one can argue that “freedoms are being undermined in Zambia” and if we all agree on that then we should take all necessary steps to fight against that (unless of course we are happy with it). From the article one can tell the the regional hub for the commonwealth is perhaps in SA. And going as a group, shows the level of seriousness attributed to the problem. Any one patriotic to Zambia should blame the PF for leading the nation to this level.

    • The very fact that they went and came back after their visit is an indication that no one is violating them. Had they left due to political pressure or running from persecution then it would be an entirely different story. Its sad that they could not identify neutral ground within the country to make their call. It should be noted the could have been accommodated by local pressure groups or regional organisations such as COMESA, and SADC if their call was genuine. Their actions only creates more questions than answers.

    • HH has no direction!The man should concentrate on organising his party that is falling apart.What violation of human rights is he talking about?What about all the violence his party is propagating including the Mapatizya formula and attacking police men at the police stations?What about the UPND’s beating of innocent moaners in Livingstone?Please give us a break!!

    • @Life is a journey, it was a first of its kind, goingto the police station adn beating up the cops! Not even the MMD thugs were this violent. And they want to convince (or confuse) us that Mapatizya formula is peaceful as if we were born yesterday.

    • Hired gun is an apt description for the lawyer who uses this to describe his methodology:

      “I am not just a lawyer. I like to insert myself in local politics.”

      I could not care less in which country the ‘leaders’ speak and champion their causes. It’s a free world (kinda). I do, however, hold little respect for the inability to call ourselves leaders when under the ‘tutelage and guidance’ of someone who months ago showed us exactly what picture he was going to paint of Zed.

      PF will leave in 2016 if the people decide to vote them out as they did MMD and UNIP. The whole lot of them including PF could do with being locked in a room with boxing gloves off, media cameras off and time on their hands to emerge as people who have found a way to SERVE those who elected them and…

    • …and those who did not elect them. Represent all. As much as they all speak of helping out the common man… there needs to be more rolling up of sleeves and hitting the ground hands on. We are a developing nation in need of hands on involvement at every level not sitting in ivory towers propounding theories, dissing each other, campaigning, grand standing and doing everything but working to develop our nation. If awards could be given for mouthing off you all win hands down. My goodness I’m teed off… coffee time. Apologies. Rant done.

    • He is a hired buzuka. What the opposition did is what a normal person who believe in peace would do. What do you expect them to do now that your king snake prevents them from associate with their members? So of you who thinks HH has failed to organise his party I think you are wrong let us wait and see how UPND will fair in L’stone, Mpongwe and soon in Itezhi Tezhi. Monde is very popular in his area but I still think the part is bigger than him and he will fall the same way Chizuka fail.

      Who is more violent HH and his cadres vs Sata and his cadres? Is it not Sata’s cadres who a few weeks ago went to Kabwata Basic to kill UPND cadres for wanting to hold a political rally? Does Zambia belong to Sata and PF alone? They should even call for sanction now like those for Iran.

  1. I wonder if RB, Nevers, HH or Saki will suffer if indeed Zambia was suspended from commonwealth or sanctioned!

    RB and MMD are more to blame for all this rather than PF because they showed little interest in reforming our system of governance and improving conditions. Police shouldn’t always try to please Govt as has been MMD and PF culture!
    The President shouldn’t be appointing and firing at will as the situation is.

    • There are 30 basis Human Rights Article 30 – Freedom From Interference in Above Rights: Nothing in this Declaration may be interpreted as implying for any State, group or person any right to engage in any activity or to perform any act aimed at the destruction of any of the rights and freedoms set forth herein.

      By calling for Zambia to be blacklisted in the international community HH is indirectly calling for removal of basic social, education and health services from the people. He is violating Article 30 of the basic Human Rights Declaration.

    • Where is this Commonwealth people are complaining about ?

      Zambians need visas to enter Canada ,Australia and the UK.

      Canadians and Australians don’t need visas to enter the UK and vice versa.

      Is this commonwealth really common?

      are we sharing the wealth equally among member states?

      In my opinion I think it’s just a useless club that meets every four years for
      Commonwealth Games for people can’t win medals at the Olympics

    • What is Commonwealth? You think that helps when you apply for a student visa kikikiki the only think that you will be suspended from is those useless foolish games.

  2. These PIpo HH, SAKI, MUMBA are already rich. we the already poor will suffer at the expense of their presidential ambitions. There is no WAR in Zambia to rush for press briefing abroad. They should reduce the appetite for power. we all want power and we all know that the PF has not done everything right but they should consider the marginally Zambians first before their EGO’s.

    • HH’s prospects of becoming President is beside the point. The issues raised by the opposition at the RSA Press Conference are true in fact and in substance.

    • Article 21. (1) Everyone has the right to take part in the government of his country, directly or through freely chosen representatives

      Question: Is UPND following this basic human right by forbidding its members from taking part in the government?

      Please practice what you preach.

    • Meaning of Article 21 (1)?
      Firstly, a person who has been elected on the Party Manifesto should NOT ABUSE that trust to MISS-REPRESENT voters.
      Second, if duly elected PEOPLE REPRESENTATIVE change his political stance, it is IMMORAL and DECEIVING to use voters trust to act contrary to their wishes.
      Ladies and Gentleman, please do not translate Constitution of Zambia in to “ZAMGLISH” to justify your own wishful and misguided interpretation.

    • Please do not complain about Mumba, HH or Saki from a point of ignorance. 1. Complain about your government’s denial of other political parties hosting a press conference in a place such as Mulungushi Hall. If Zambians could still enjoy their right to assemble when and where they wanted there would have been no need to go to South Africa which allows such freedom to its citizens. If your government does not change its record I will as a patriot be holding my press conference at the UN in New York to denounce it. 2. The group called for investigation of Zambia’s record and if your government has nothing to hide let them invite the Commonwealth delegation.You Zambians still praise a goverment which is depriving you of your hard won rights to listen to all opinions not just of the…

  3. At least so far you did not ask for a travel ban for my hubby,he’s really worried that if that happened there is no secret ,it means no medical reviews in London.So please basa do not even petitioning the European Union mwandini ,that will be the end of my Ukwa.

    • Basa ba HH ,i meant also to say Donchi Kubeba ba European Union,especially the French ,they are not as corrupt as the Italians .Look at what they did to Gaddafi and the Mali rebels ,bakali.So please lets keep it in house at the moment while i work on his kidney function.

  4. when children are not allowed an opinion in there own homes,the neighbors will definately be an outlay for there frustrations.

    as far as the man eater is concerned they didnt go far enough,they should have laid charges on PF and there retard of a leader at the hague to answer for all the crimes againest humanity.

    • Ba LT there is no way you can delete my message when you allow some offensive posts from some bastards fond of insulting HEMCS and the First Lady. dont be like those uncircumcised bastards at watchmbwa who only allow what their fellow cavemen post.

  5. NEVERS mumba lacks maturity
    sakwiba sikota has never won not even a single case in the courts of law
    HH has being loosing popularity since the late mazoka
    ALL the three opposition are bunches of fools who have put their interests first and the poor Zambians second shame on these useless leaders

  6. The Oposition seems to be desparate.Misplaced opportunities have filled their minds.
    These are people who’d enjoy life up there while common citizenary surfer from the sanctions their leaders asked for.Shame on under 5z

  7. PF Should let the opposition enjoy their democratic rights just has MMD did to HEMCS. Why deny them Permits? Remember We Put PF in Power. We supported you the hard core way. I guess this is the Donchi Kubeba you meant. We are watching. Your days are numbered.

    • Permits can be given no problem. But the opposition have no data, no message for the people, only hate massages and redicule. The government is doing fine by refusing them to hold rallies bent to insight masses to revolt against government. If they would talk about issues and offer solutions to problems, the permits would not be an issue. Who, in their right mind, would give someone permit to discredit leadership?

    • HH and UPND will NEVER govern Zambia at the rate they are going!!Nevers Mumba has also shown us what he can do,sink the MMD party to the bottom of the Zambezi river!!He did it to his own church and two other parties before.Now following HH blindly like a lost goat!!Wolfs in sheep’s skin!!

  8. HH and his minions should realise that what they did was political sucide and no sane person can justify such a futile move to discredit a working government! These so called opposition leaders is bunch of jockers!

    I feel sad for this boy HH! I thought he had learnt some political moves from King Cobra which could sustain his regional party, but the chap has completely lost it! What an opposition leader!

    • Just advise your sick president not to vent anger on Zambians. We need our freedom of association. These opposition are just being helpful to Ukwa because there are forces in the country that can do even worse things. Ukwa please sober up; we thought almost two years in office will clear off the smoke. This Mpezeni supplied strong stuff whose effects are long lasting.
      We demand Sata starts acting like a president of Zambia and not some faggot controlled by Mmembe and the Nchito brothers. Don’t come and cry over our shoulders if the waste happened; we as opposition have tried to pump sense into that thick skull. AS they say ‘if you think education is expensive, try ignorance’!

    • It seems you are not living in Zambia were even the man(beerman Lungu) at the helm of protecting Zambians said the police wont be there to protect the people tha will attend the Kabwata rally. So what do you expect if in your own country you are not protected unless you belong to PF. The man is mutilating democracy which we fought for were UNZA students were even arrested and flown to some prison in Kabwe using buffalo plane. My friend it is not about HH, NM or Saki but it is the democracy which people like Aka and others fought for. Sata used ti visit Chiefs under RB but what are we seeing today, Nevers pays a courtesy call on the chief he is arrested for unlawful assembly. Open your eyes coz next time you will be told you cant have a preparatory meeting for your daughterz or sons weddin

  9. ba mutale mwasosa bwino these hungry hyenas (hh) have run out of ideas .fipuba sana surely whom do they want to punish is it the president or a common man .GOD help us cause these FOOOOLS will distabilise our nation and the peace we are enjoying.may the almighty bless our country and our leaders in GOVT.

  10. This is too much.Under 5z awez like ndeya muku kusosela kuli ba dadi.They can not solve problems by themselves.They are incapacitated.We need leaders with Brians and not ndeya muku kuzala ( i’ll report you mentality)

  11. in that picture, is that bastard smilling or is in pain? but uyu shetani mubi save for the few million kwachas he has otherwise he could have been a kachema.

  12. I don’t see how this guy will ever become President of Zambia. PF has abrogated fundamental human rights? What is HH and his minions smoking?

  13. My hubby is not even bothered because these frustrated elements are not going anywhere. Already some senior personnel from Commonwealth called to find out if there was any merit in the opposition’s calls. They were clearly told to ignore these frustrated elements who want to bring suffering upon innocent Zambians. Commonwealth is also shocked these opposition leaders could engage an international lawyer who is on record of being a crook and corrupt.

  14. THE VERY FACT THAT THIS IS NOW A DEBATE SHOW THAT THE POINT FOR THE OPPOSITION HAS BEEN TAKEN. WELL DONE OPPOSITION, THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY ARE WATCHING

    • which international community? There are more serious issues on the international front than paying attention to these frustrated elements and crooks like the fake pastor and lawyer. These opposition leaders have made things very easy for PF to win the forthcoming by-elections. Just tell the people in Mpongwe, Livingstone that these opposition are busy lobbying that Zambians start suffering through sanctions. Give the people examples of how innocent people suffer through sanctions. What sort of leaders are these opposition leaders?

  15. HH is seriously smoking dagga and the fake pastor is even worsening HH’s situation.
    I really feel pity for HH and his blind followers. Wrong calculations, wrong moves, wrongs speeches and all at wrong times.

    The man has terribly failed his political carerr. HH looks like has absolutely no idea want he wants in his political career. Sorry william.

    • HH and Saki are using Nevers to divide the Bemba vote and Nevers does not know that these are using him to get what they what. How many members has ULP? I thought it is a legal department of UPND! Ba HH, start campaigning in Bemba speaking areas and not use the international community to destabilise Zambia. Once they do that, even the 1% chance you had of being president of ZED will be lost because a lot of people are angry with you and Nevers’ manouvres.

    • @HH Blind Follower. You could not have put it any better! Now PF have have ammunition to use during their campaigns (1) UPND/MMD/ULP want sanctions to be imposed on poor zambians and take us back to the UNIP days just because they don’t want to follow the law. (2) They want to protect RB so that we don’t get back all the millions he stole which can be used to help towards development.
      @KA GELO. ULP has only 4 members Sakwiba, his driver, guard and Major Lisita. Not even members of his own family are ULP sympathizers

  16. HH and company are not patriotic zambians they have money and want to make the zambians suffer look at zimbabwe do you think the sacntions have affected Mugabe and his friends or its the ordinaly zimbabwans. We shall never vote for you guys here in Eastern Province you have shown your charecters pastor Mumba i dont which God you claim to worship coz these are certainly not traits found in christians.

    • is that the reason PF are failing to govern the country because HH has money.
      is that the reason you are abusing the police turned cadres.

      if you have failed to govern leave in peace , you are running a country not a Secretariat in Cairo Mall.

    • IF PF HAS FAILED TO GOVERN THEN THE VOTERS WILLSHOW THIS BY THE RESULTS OF THE FORTH COMING BYE ELECTIONS. SIMPLE. YOU DONT NEED TO MAKE SO MUCH NOISE. LET THE PEOPLE SAY HOW THEY FEEL ABOUT THE PF VIA THE POLLS. PERIOD.

  17. In short HH and company are just fooools. They have no heart for the innocent and ordinary Zambians. That crook of a lawyer they are using is very comfortable where he is. He will even stop thinking about Zambia when innocent Zambians start suffering.

    Surely even the so-called man of god can be part of this scheme to bring about sufferings to innocent zambians? It may be understood for HH because he is a free mason and those people don’t care about the sufferings of other people.

  18. PLEASE JUST ADVISE OR CONVINCE ME. DO NOT INSULT.

    WHY I & MY CHIEFDOM CANNOT VOTE FOR HH?

    WE REGARD HIM JUST AS ANOTHER ECONOMIC PLUNDERER IN WAITING WHO TOOK ADVANTAGE OF DECENT CITIZENS WHEN WE WENT TO BED EARLY AT A TIME WHEN CHILUBA WAS INTRODUCING PRIVATIZATION & ECONOMIC LIBERALIZATION. CHILUBA LIKE RB STARTED BUYING HOUSES, TODAY SHANSONGA IS A MILLIONAIRE IN ENGLAND, HH IS A MILLIONAIRE IN ZAMBIA WHO EVEN TODAY CANNOT REVEAL THE SOURCES OF HIS WEALTH. IT WAS SANGWAPO WHICH RB ATTEMPTED TO REPEAT. FELLOW ZAMBIANS, HOW CAN A HEAD OF STATE START OWNING OR BUYING VILLAS WHEN THE STATE WILL PROVIDE EVERYTHING FOR HIS FAMILY?
    WHERE DID HH GET HIS WEALTH FROM? WHY MPUNDU ACCOUNTS? ETC

    • WHO ARE YOU FOR HH TO REVEAL HIS SOURCE OF WEALTH?DO YOU HAVE PROOF OR IT JUST BLIND HATRED FROM THE TRIBALIST SENTIMENTS.READ THE FORBES REPORT ON ZAMBIA.PF HAS LITERALLY DIVIDED THIS NATION.THERE IS SO MUCH TENSION IN THE COUNTRY THAN NEVER BEFORE.
      HH,BANDA ,MUMBA HAVE A DEMOCRATIC RIGHT OF ASSOCIATION,BUT THAT IS BEING DENIED.THE ZP HAS BECOME AN ARMED WING OF THE PF TO INTIMIDATE THE OPPOSITION. THE CONSTITUTION DOES NOT SAY YOU HAVE TO GET A PERMIT FROM THE POLICE TO VIST YOUR MEMBERS IN YOUR CONSTITUENCY.YOU ONLY INFORM THE POLICE THEN GO AHEAD.WHY ARE YOU PEOPLE BLIND TO ALL THESE OCCURENCES?TRIBALISM WHICH IS IMBEDED IN YOUR GENES.EVEN WHEN HH IS SPEAKING SENSE,THROUGH YOUR EYES OF HATERD AND TRIBALISM YOU SEE BITTERNESS.

    • Your uncle has failed to prove that he stole just as Chiluba failed and even RB. Your uncle was caught with $100,000 and failed to claim it back fact. So between HH and your uncle who is a proven plumber? Your uncle stole K2B from BOZ and was flying with it in air fact. Why does your uncle hide his worth if it was justly obtained? It is all hidden in other people’s names fact were as HH’s is in public domain.

      I salute them for a job well done. They should lobby even more.

    • DONT BE BLIND BA ZAMBIA4LIFE. READ WHAT IS HAPPENING. HH IS SO BITTER TO BELONG TO THE OPPOSITION. HE THOUGHT HE WAS BETTER THAN SATA. BUT UNFORTUNATELY FOR HIM THE ZAMBIANS REJECTED HIM. HE THOUGHT SATA WILL FAIL TO GOVERN THIS COUNTRY CLAIMING THAT THERE WILL BE CHAOS IN ZAMBIA. NOTHING OF THE SORT HAS HAPPENED. SO HH HAS VOWED TO DISTABILISE THE COUNTRY SO THAT HE CAN TURN ROUND AND SAY “LOOK THIS IS THE CHAOS THAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT”. ALL HIS SCHEMES ARE FAILING . NOW HE HAS RESORTED TO MISINFORM THE COMMONWEALTH. THIS TOO HAS FAILED. INSTEAD HE HAS INVITED RIDICULE ON HIMSELF. HIS BLOOD THIRST FOR RALLIES HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH FREEDOM OF ASSEMBLY. HE WANTS TO INCITE VIOLENCE. HE HAS NO MESSAGE AT ALL. IF VOTERS ARE WITH HH, LETS SEE THE RESULTS OF THE FORTH-COMING BYE ELECTIONS.

  19. HH IS A SPOILED YOUNG MAN!!! HE SHOULD REALISE THAT RUNING A SMALL TRIBAL PARTY WILL NEVER GET HIM THE MAJORITY OF VOTES TO RULE ZAMBIA.
    A CHANCE WAS PRESENTED TO HIMSELF TO FORM A PACT WITH THE PF AND THE POSITION OF VEEP WAS ASSURED BUT ALAS THIS MAN IS A VERY SELFISH TONGA.

    • VEEP IN A STINKING, TRIBAL, NEPOTISTIC PARTY. GO TO HELL WITH YOUR PARTY. FULL OF UNEDUCATED AND UNCIVILIZED KAPONYAS. RATHER REMAIN IN OPPOSITION THAN JOIN A BANDWAGON OF ILLITERATES.

    • 26.1 The so called Kaponyas will continue rulling you till eternity. Remember they are in the Majority and for your Under 5 Freemason ( SATANIST) to win an election ( GOD FORBID) he needs the support of everyone including the so called Kaponyas. Tongas are too few to make someone Republican President. Unless may be the constitution is changed to include cattle on the ECZ voters register

    • He not selfish, he is just ambitious and he want to move Zambia forward and not these tribalist with no direction. Some will soon resign like the Pope as I don’t see them having any strength come 2016 to go round and tell Lozis that it is now that they will restore the agreement they had promised them.

    • Mankotyo Ascot
      You UPND cadres amaze, one just has to visit parliament site to determine which party has the least % representation of educated MPs in the house and you got the nerve to call others uneducated.
      Until your party realises that Zambia is made up of 10 provinces and that you need to have presence in all corners of the country to have even the slightest chance of forming government, your frustrations will be a permanent feature.

  20. There have been very tense moments in Zambia like in 1990/91 when people from all walks of life calld for the re-introduction of multiparty politics, the third term issue, etc. In all these cases, Zambians themselves have always arisen to the occassion and held succesful indabas to resolve these matters. NGO’s, UNZA and the Church have always mediated in these matters. HH and your friends, do you have any faith in any non-partisan group/individuals to resolve these matters rather than rushing to RSA? I doubt if your agenda has the interest of common Zamabians at heart.

    • Who would risk there lives to attend an opposition political rally let alone an indaba?
      UPND kabwata rally what happened ? Livingstone UPND members arrested for having an in door meeting? Now what about a meeting to discuss the one party state? sir are you in your right state of mind?

    • Whilst I like your idea of dialogue, such a route is not feasible in the present situation where the opposition are even denied the right to assemble and associate. The ‘rule of law’ & not the ‘rule of men’ should prevail in our country. Democracy should not be reduced to a mere licence granted at the whims and dictates of the ruling clique.

    • A lot of reasons and excuses can be given for failing to dialogue, but ultimately, whether you like it or not you’ll have to sit down and talk. The problem is if you take long, you’ll be doing it with bloody noses. Look at the case in Syria, who honestly is the victor in that war? The so called rebels are being armed by the west and their allies while the russians and Iranians are arming the Assad regime. I still think the use of outsiders is not the best option because most of them will come with their own agends.

  21. What the opposition dis is the best solution to exposing dictators, tribalistst and corrupt regimes. If the commonwealth does not respond opposition should go further by taking the abuse of human rights to the Hague. Then someone will rot with his scrotum tied at UTH because he will have been banned from traveling abroad. GOOD JO OPPOSITION. THE ***** IS USING TAXPAYERS’ MONEY TO SUPPRESS THE CITIZENS. SINCE HE IS COPYING MUGABE ZAMBIA WILL END UP THE ZIM WAY UNTIL YOU POOR BASTARDS WHO ARE SUPPORTING THIS REPRESSIVE REGIME WILL REALIZE THAT HE IS A FAILURE AT INTERNATIONAL LEVEL.

  22. The so called opposition leaders who went to South africa to discredit Mother Zambia are not fit to be called leaders. Have you ever honestly been denied holding press conferences in Zambia? Come on ba Mumba behave like the Christian that you are and for once be truthful! You have failed at the ballot box and if you continue this way you will never rule Zambia. The foreigners you are courting will never vote for you and all you will succeed in doing is only to bring anarchy to Zambia. If you persist in doing what you are doing, you will only alienate the people of Zambia who are supposed to vote for you. The few followers that you have have not gottten you to State House yet, so please do whatever you can to win our confidence but you will not achieve this by selling out our country.

    • ARE YOU A BENEFICIARY OF THE SUPPRESSION. YOU SOUND SO LOW MINDED. THE WORLD HAS NOW KNOWN THAT THERE IS ONE DICTATOR WHO NEED TO BE TRIED AT THE HAGUE. IT ALL STARTS LIKE THIS. TELL YOU DICTATOR TO BE CIVILIZED.

    • Typical of PF cadre illiteracy,how dull are you? Get your facts right before you expose your ignorance and bias – ness. No one is discrediting Zambia except for your sick Cobra all what the Opposition did was expose the Snake Sata for what he is.

    • Sata and his government do not allow meetings. They said every meeting requires a police permit and if they apply for the same they are denied, so what other solution is there? of course to meet on foreign ground where Sata will not send his cadres to destablise their meetings. or did GRZ expect the opposition to keep quiet???? Please lest not pretend that all is well, we refuse the Mugabe rule. NAREP DO NOT BE HYPOCRITES..

    • Mankotyo Ascot and Concernedcitizen, insulting the sitting President will not get you anywhere. If what the so called opposition leaders did, did not amount to discrediting the Zambian Nation, then you are the dull ingnorant ones who need to go back to school and not me. These people are recommending that Zambia should be suspended from the Commonwealth! They did not say that Sata should be tried for crimes but that Zambia should be…….. Fellow Zambians, Sata, HH, Sikota, Mumba will all come to an end one day but Zambia and Zambians will go on until the Lord God Himself ends everything. It is our duty as Zambians to hold our leaders accountable and not allow them to use our wealth as their own private wealth. Sata, HH, Mumba etc. do not need the Commonwealth, poor Zambians do!

  23. POOR MYOPIC HH, HAS THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY PAID ANY ATTENTION TO ZIMBABWE’S MORGAN TSVANGIRAI WHEN MUGABE SHAMBOKED HIM?

  24. Is becoming a president a matter of life and death for these opposition leaders?. Whatever problems they have with this PF government is no justification for such a move. Like others have said, this HH, RB, MUMBA AND SAKWIBA are not living in poverty and their action is not meant to save the interest of zambians in whichever way apart from just protecting the confort of their unjustlly obtained wealth. I dont think government has ever stopped these people from holding press conferences at their secretariates. So holding a press conference from a foreign land to discredit government and a country they wish to lead one day in the manner they did is unjustified and enough a reason not to vote for any of these guys.

    • whats the point of holding a rally at the Secretariat. you hold a rally where your intended would be voters are. for example how many people live in Rhodespark?

      if the opposition can’t hold a rally in their constituencies then its good that they hold it in a foreign land at least we with TV can watch them on TV.

    • BA CONCERNED CITIZEN. DID THESE GUYS HOLD A RALLY IN SOUTH AFRICA OR THEY HELD A PRESS BRIEFING THERE?? AND WHY COULDNT THEY HOLD SUCH A BRIEFING AT THEIR SECRETARIATES? DID THEY MANAGE TO CARRY SUPPORTERS FROM ZAMBIA TO ATTEND THIS SAME “RALLY?” HH IS ALWAYS SPEAKING ON RADIO QFM, PHOENIX ETC WE ALREADY KNOW WHAT HH STANDS FOR.

  25. indeed opposition leaders are not thinking, it is unthinkable to discredit your own country the way you did…shame on you guys. i think it is high time you started thinking

    • Sata brought a foreign judge from malawi to eat our tax payers money for doing no work at all and fired our own did you complain ?
      let the opposition enjoy there freedom of speech in South Africa since Zambia is a dictatorship.

      if you want go to the moon with sata and hold a swearing in ceremony

  26. The opposition must be commended for their heroic efforts in highlighting the appalling state of governance and breakdown of the rule of law in Zambia. For a long time, the PF party & Govt have been denying citizens their basic human rights.

  27. HH is a very desperate man, he has tried all manner things to get attention but to no avail. He has tried Dancing, awe chashupa, donating cows, awe chashupa, takes hudlums to police stations, awe chaupa. What remained was Amasterdam’s idea to go to SA and make a press conference, awe nachena chashupa. Yaba!!!!!!!

    • PF GOVERNMENT HAS BEEN HAMMERED B Y OPPOSITION. PANTS DOWN. ALL DIRTY TRICK OF SUPPRESSION LAID BARE. GOOD FOR DICTATORS. HAMMER MORE FOR THE WHOLE WORLD TO KNOW HOW POORLY ZAMBIA IS BEING GOVERNED. WHY HIDE POOR GOVERNANCE TO THE DEMOCRATIC WORLD. PF IS EMBARRASSED IF AT ALL THEY HAVE MORALS. NEXT DONORS SHOULD WITHDRAW FUNDING TO DICTATORS BECAUSE THE DICTATOR WILL USE THE FUNDING TO KILL OPONENTS,
      VERY GOOD APPROACH TO BARBARIC REGIMES.

  28. SATA IS BUSY ABUSING POWER TO CAUSE ZAMBIANS BECOME MORE POORER…HE IS BUYING OPPOSING MP USING EURO BONDS…SATA ZWAAA

  29. HH hatrad and tribalism, Saki Hatrad and tribalism, Nevers the love of money. He has adopted western way of living which he can not sustain from offering from Victory ministries. So the money hates Sata because he was recalled from Canada. At least there he used GRZ funds. Now he does not know what to do with his children in america. How are they going to survive. These things gentlemen bring these desperate politicians together.

  30. Why the fuss if PF has not done anything wrong there is no need to worry. let commonwealth come and investigate the allegations . The problem with our politics is that there is too much Vengeance and hate. To be very factual and truthful the way MMD treated Sata and other opposition Leardes then was not right and the way PF is treating MMD and other opposition leaders today it is also not right. Let us reflect the way Sata used to behave sometimes as an opposition leader it was not right and you one could not blame him for that Coz of the hostile political environment then which can still be said of the current political environment. I recall our beloved head of state HE sata saying do un to others what you would like them do un to you. May God bless Zambia

  31. Article 30 – Freedom From Interference in Above Rights: Nothing in this Declaration may be interpreted as implying for any State, group or person any right to engage in any activity or to perform any act aimed at the destruction of any of the rights and freedoms set forth herein.

    By calling for zambia to be blacklisted in the international community HH is indirectly colling for removal of basic social, education and health services from the people. He is violating Article 30 of the basic Human Rights Declaration.

    • Wants to be a dictator? What measuring instrument did you use to determine the process of becoming a dictator. Frastrating UPND and MMD is just a political culculation. Even the Democratic party would do anything to ensure Republicans are weak. The difference is Republicans in congress are strong because they have a strong leader and follow GOP principles. HH is mono-proncipled: Hate every one in leadership. He did that to Levy, He did the same to Banda, and now Sata. When they are out of power he loves them. Eg. he is now buddies with Banda. Sata a dictator, what has he dictated or imposed on the will of the people? Name one. Please educate me Mr concerned citizen.

    • 1.no freedom of speech and assembly
      2.abuse of the public order act ( arrested simply for going to the market)
      3.inducing by elections to just to create by elections if he was loved he would have got 80 % of MP seats but no now his using state machinery to get those seats and bribing the corrupt MP’s to join him so as to create one party state.
      4. stoping the ACC to commence corruption investigations on his Kabimba.
      5. illegally firing the chief justice and wanting to push through chibesakunda the relative whose over age.
      6. appointing a criminal DDP.
      \

  32. PF HAS LITERALLY DIVIDED THIS NATION.THERE IS SO MUCH TENSION IN THE COUNTRY THAN NEVER BEFORE.
    HH,BANDA ,MUMBA HAVE A DEMOCRATIC RIGHT OF ASSOCIATION,BUT THAT IS BEING DENIED.THE ZP HAS BECOME AN ARMED WING OF THE PF TO INTIMIDATE THE OPPOSITION. THE CONSTITUTION DOES NOT SAY YOU HAVE TO GET A PERMIT FROM THE POLICE TO VIST YOUR MEMBERS IN YOUR CONSTITUENCY.YOU ONLY INFORM THE POLICE THEN GO AHEAD.WHY ARE YOU PEOPLE BLIND TO ALL THESE OCCURENCES?TRIBALISM WHICH IS IMBEDED IN YOUR GENES.EVEN WHEN HH IS SPEAKING SENSE,THROUGH YOUR EYES OF HATERD AND TRIBALISM YOU SEE BITTERNESS.

  33. koma kamudala iwe ulibe nzelu….you have killed the party we loved so much when it was run by great Andy…MHSRIP. why cant this chap step down & let young guys like Mweetwa take over? 3 attempts coming out third….even this time around (2016), he will be third if not forth….Sata, Elias Jnr, Nevers, HH…etc. UPND wake-up! kupwarara badara! mwajata ng’ombe!

  34. Viva HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Viva UPND, UPND, UPND, UPND, UPND, UPND,
    Zwa Sata, Zwa Sata, Wawaa Sata, Zwa PF
    Out Sata,out you go PF
    Viva SOUTH AFRICA, viva South Africa
    Long live Commonwealth secretariat
    Long live HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    • Indeed, they need to be caged before they commit more felons. What political leader in his right senses would wish for sanctions to be imposed on his innocent citizens?
      Gosh, I still don’t understand what HH and the fake pastor smoked.

  35. Because of poor political strategy, HH and his fake Pastor friend have dug their own graves. You now see what being myopic can do to some people. Zambians have just realized that these frustrated fellows are up to no good. It had to take themselves to prove to the Zambians that they are useless politicians with nothing serious to offer.

  36. God is watching and he can never intrust this Nation to Masonists, no matter how far they will go nothing tangeble will come out. Heavely God creator of the Universe protect and groom Elias Chipimo for the next leadership of this Nation.

  37. thats blasphemy don’t bring God into politics lest you drop down dead. what evidence have you got that someone is a mason? what research have you done?
    on the other hand its visibly very clear if you want to see that Micheal your President is a dictator and liar.

    • The Under 5 is a Freemason( SATANIST) Mazoka was also one of them thats why God made sure he lost to Mwanawasa who was God Fearing

  38. Ati he was in the campany of Sakwiba and mumba what political leaders to work with ba HH I remember mazoka batata mulale mucibote pate mwashila ichipuba

    • Stop pretending that you loved Mazoka you hardcore tribalist. To you anything from the western half is tribal and mazoka was given the same tag you are giving HH. Who are you trying to fool. We now know your scheme. HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

  39. Meaning of Article 21 (1)?
    Firstly, a person who has been elected on the Party Manifesto should NOT ABUSE that trust to MISS-REPRESENT voters.
    Second, if duly elected PEOPLE REPRESENTATIVE change his political stance, it is IMMORAL and DECEIVING to use voters trust to act contrary to their wishes.
    Ladies and Gentleman, please do not translate Constitution of Zambia in to “ZAMGLISH” to justify your own wishful and misguided interpretation.

    To summarize, what we are witnessing are the acts of POLITICAL PROSTITUTION where scarce financial resources been used for personal egos of the Political Prostitutes

  40. People please bare with me I am just a frustrated, bitter politician who has come to the conclusion that I run a regional party and can never be intrusted with the leadership of this nation. I have come to a realisation that I will never come close to the echelons of power in Zambia, therefore all I have remained with is this unrestrained bitterness to frustrate this government hoping as the Bembas say that “Tukafilile munsenga”.
    Please forgive me, I have tried to graduate from my underfive status, but those surrounding me are too inexperienced to help me mature out of this predicament

    • multiple personality or copying other people personality is a sign of a mental disease. get yourself checked you patient and carry sata with you.

  41. Politicians should be free to have press conferences wherever they want. If some people find this unpatriotic then they should not be happy with a sitting President having his urinary tract been probed in foreign countries! Where is your patriotism if you allow foreign probing of your member!

    • @Chisenge, Velvet Makaka honestly how does HH come up in that statement?. Are you speaking for Satana? Are you Satana in disguise? Please use the little time that is remaining to find a Bemba who will take over from Satana otherwise dont start crying when Kabimba and the half breed Fred get one past you! Oh no I fgorget you chaps will swing over to the NAREP branches seeing you’ve already identified the zygote Chipimo as your troop leader once your current warlord crosses over to the other side!

  42. Country men and women,

    First and foremost, I wish to from the bottom of my heart apologize for for act of selfishness and desparation which myself and my colleague Pastor Nervus Mumba undertook in South Africa. It was not our intention to to lobby the commonwealth to impose sanctions on our loved nation, Zambia because we fully understand that doing so will put many innocent Zambians to into abject sufferings.

    Please fellow Zambians, find it in your hearts to forgive us (forgive me) for this untimely and un planned move. It is our sincere desire to see that the lives of many zambians are uplifted.

    I must confess her that we were misled my Mr. Amsterdam, a renowned international lawyer, into believing that this move would yield positive results

    Yours fellow Zambian
    Hakainde…

  43. Shameless so called opposition leaders. Will the so called international community vote for you cry babies? You have failed to gunner support at home now you run outside to discredit the same country you so desperately want to lead. Whose interests are you serving you pathetic lunatics? What has happened to morals especially on the part of the so called “pastor”? H.H is a bitter tribalist who has refused to accept his loss in the last election coz he thought he was more popular than Michael and will stop at nothing to make Sata look bad. Shame on you H.H. You have destroyed a once vibrant party called UPND under the able leadership of Anderson Kambela Mazoka MHSRIEP, and now you want to destroy Zambia by calling for sanctions on your own country. What a pathetic leader you are. Please…

    • Maybe it is you who is a tribalist. Can’t you see the family bush that your uncle has for a cabinet and the civil service. Why is it always tribal for other tribes when the vote for a better candidate and yet it is not tribal for Luapula and Northern when they vote for Sata? Compare the Votes Milupe and HH got from these provinces and those which the provinces where these two come from gave to Sata. It maybe 100 times more. Now would you tell me that Sata is more credible that these two? It is them who are more tribal than other provinces.

  44. The opposition leaders have realized that they have no political muscle to grow their parties. HH and Fake Pastor Mumba should know that Politics is not for the faint hearted. On this one, they have received condemnation from all corners of the nation. Feel pity for them.

  45. What happens when these fellas loose the 2016 election? They seem so one way minded! Don’t really realize that PF will be in power for two terms. Running a marathon run as if its 100 metres sprint is a sign of lack of understanding the game ball. You are surely running fast but to nowhere. Be real guys.

    • we are not at all sure if Sata’s health will hold till 2016, then how sure are you that PF will win. PF is a party in disarray only held temporary by the fading glue in Sata.

      PF has no credible leader only Given Lubinda, the rest of the pack are boot lickers who will scamper whose there no sugar in the bums to lick.

      we are in the 21 century its time to move on, UNIP style of leadership failed then how then can it work now in this day and age.

      we thank these old men like sata for the part they played but there time is up, we need fresh minds and ideas, minds that fully understand the requirements to solve 21 century problems.

      minds like sata are good at gorilla wars but we now need minds good at economics and bussiness.

    • Satana is dying! And if Kabimba or Lubinda were to take over the Bemba speakers of Northern and Luapula provinces will run away from PF. That is why most of them are looking at Chipimo because they know there is no Bemba speaker with the necessary following in PF to take over from Satana! PF will die with Satana!

  46. Please provide the king cobra with many bags of diapers. He the king cobra and his loyal snakes at plot number are arguing about HH’s clever move without solutions in the horizon. The king cobra and his usual snakes do not go to the toilet but unavoidably defecate and urinate in their diapers.
    This is a good business opportunity for diaper manufacturers around the globe.

    • @ BOOM & WHATEVER
      YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH TONGAS!!!
      TONGAS AS ATRIBE ARE CURSED,THEY WILL NEVER RULE ZAMBIA!!!
      WHICH TRIBE CAN ALLOW A COW TO BE HEAD OF STATE?

    • #66.1 @BO MUNYENGE MUNYENGE
      I am not ashamed to be associated with Tongas. In fact, it is a blessing in disguise to be associated with Tongas or for one to be a member of the Tonga tribe. Knowing that a certain ‘dominant tribe (Bemba) is envious of Tongas’ successes, it makes Tongas to work harder than they would normally do.
      So your stereotypes with your fellow mates are unfounded and they must be treated as such.
      Cursed? No, Tongas are not cursed at all. Maybe, Bembas and all those who share your stereotypes are cursed. Get rid of your uncalculated thinking and be flexible to the diverse tribes around you. Allow the differences in opinion to rule your approach in all pertinent matters

  47. The UPND is in serious panic (through the Zambianwatchdog) trying to justify the sillly move by their leader. They have just realised that the man made a serious political blander by calling for Sanctions to be imposed on his own citizens.

    The Zambian watch dogs (galus) are blocking any message condemning the sillly move by their chief dog.

    • @UPND advisor, you are very right, these galus still block any message which do not agree with their agenda. E.G, I have tried several times to comment to their “Picture of the Day” which shows HEMCS with some nyau dancers. Let all know that that picture was taken in Katete, Milanzi constituency during the 2009 (or 2010) by-elections. Ask any chewa (not the town ones) and they will tell you there that are different “nyaus, such as gologolo, lende, mbiya zodooka, kasinja, chadzunda, maria, simoni, bwana joh etc. In Malawi, this particular one is called Kamatuwa. I’ve forgotten what this chilombo is called in Katete/Chipata.

    • And they have the courage to preach freedoms and rights in a foreign country when without shame they block anyone critical of their party on their site. HYPOCRITES that’s what they are.

  48. I’m NOT sure if Pastor Mumba, HH and Saki consultated their members.. Anyhow this means that any small dispute with GRZ, this bunch of cowards needs to rush to Jozi for a joint press statements. Infact, it is not PF GRZ ‘killing’ the opposition parties… it is the opposition parties killing themselves by being medioca.

    • Did Kabimba consult you when he twinned your PaFwaka party with the Chinese Communist party or the Cuban Communist party?? Go dose off man and leave our men of valour alone. I’m fully behind this HH man despite him being tonga. He makes more sense that all Kolwestans combined.

  49. Useless club – this commonwealth. If HH thinks there are solutions in this club, he is not fit to lead the country. What hardship has this chap been through? And his friend, the former Pastor, is he for real? Why does he think he can do better as a politician than he did God’s work? Is it all worth it?

    What nonsense. People in Zambia just follow blindly. This is why pitfalls are never detected. And that is why my fiance keeps criticising the circus over there.

    I support her totally.

  50. HH IS A JUST A SMALL UNCIRCUMSIZED BOY!!!!
    HE BETTER STAND AS MP IN LIVINGSTONE THATS WHEN HE CAN WIN AN ELECTION.

    WHY NOT BE AN MP AND THEN BE A LEADER OF THE OPPOSITION IN PARLIAMENT?

    BLACKS NEVER CEASE TO MAZE ME

  51. COWS!! COWS!! COWS!!

    YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH TONGAS!!!
    TONGAS AS ATRIBE ARE CURSED,THEY WILL NEVER RULE ZAMBIA!!!
    WHICH TRIBE CAN ALLOW A COW TO BE HEAD OF STATE?

    • I THINK BO MUNYENGE MUNYENGE YOU ARE TOTALLY WRONG. THERE IS NO TRIBE THAT WAS ORDAINED TO RULE OR NOT TO RULE ZAMBIA. THERE IS NO TRIBE THAT IS CURSED. WE CANNOT JUDGE THE TONGA PEOPLE BY THE BEHAVIOUR OF HH OR UPND. UPND IS A PARTY BUT TONGA IS A TRIBE. YES UPND IS A TRIBAL, REGIONAL PARTY. BUT YOU CANNOT SAY TONGAS ARE TRIBAL. IT IS THIS STEREOTYPING OF TRIBES THAT CAN BRING WARS IN OUR COUNTRY. YES HH HAS FAILED TO WIN AN ELECTION BECAUSE HE HAS FAILED TO CONVINCE THE MAJORITY OF ZAMBIANS THAT HE MEANS WELL. SATA WON THE ELECTION BECAUSE HE HAS CONVINCED MANY ZAMBIANS THAT HE MEANS WELL AND AT THE RATE THINGS ARE MOVING, SATA IS ASSURED OF A SECOND TERM. HE HAS SOME CHALLENGES, BUT THESE ARE NOT INSUMOUNTABLE. AND WE WISH HIM WELL.

  52. Can someone please castrate these guys? i have no kind words for you anymore, i retract my words i sometime ago posted that NM was heaven sent to rule Z, as for Hakaivotela Humwine, you will remain a loser, The otherone i dont care he can hang! Filetusebanya ifikulufyonse ifi nensoni tafikwete, all for the love of power, envy! We shall see if SAwill vote for you letalone put in power, ifiko!

    • One Zambian Politician has already been castrated by Indian Doctors! Me thinks he is enough for now! We dont want all our politicians to be castrated. Its better the old, tired and worn out are the only ones to go under the knife. THAT ONE is ENOUGH. He has been castrated on behalf of everyone else!

    • How about the one who secretly sneaks out of the country? The one who only appears in public once in a while looking ashen like a ghost? That is a proper patient!

  53. CONCERNEDCITIZEN and GONCALVES whatever you call your selves, i pity you so much you are too blind to see and am sure you are already iniciated into satanism thats why you cant think straight, you have no zambians at heart, too selfcentred do you know how much it can cost zambians with your leader’s selfish intentions? please repent and look to GOD and all shall be well with you.

  54. I cannot help it but feel sorry for HH and his Tonga followers ( at least those that are still behind). This is post Independence mwaiche, we resolve our own issues. Hakaivotela Humwine.

  55. Those strategies and tactics will take you nowhere HH with the new UPND president Amsterdam and the so-called coalition of failed politicians, such as Sakwiba Sikota, Nevers Mumba and Rupiah Banda.

  56. @ZAMBIA4LIFE

    DO NOT BE BLINDED BY MAFIA AND SANGWAPO POLITICS.

    ANYONE IN THE WORLD WHETHER CHINESE, SOUTH AFRICAN, NIGERIAN, BRITISH OR AMERICAN WHOSE ACCOUNT HITS 1M FREELY DISCLOSES HIS/HER INVESTMENTS. ITS JUST THAT NATURAL.

    HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF HACHILALA OF ZAMBIA?

    IF YOU WERE BORN YESTERYEAR, PLEASE BE INFORMED THAT HH WAS CHIEF ECONOMIC PLUNDERER CONSULTANT FOR CHILUBA.
    TRIBAL? PLEASE SAVE ME THE EMBARRASSMENT..

    I HAVE BEEN A MAZOKA GUY RIGHT THROUGH AND THROUGH.

    PLUNDERERS WILL HAVE NO PLACE IN MY LIFE!

  57. Talk is cheap. But its okey, it shows we are getting somewhere with communication matters. What we need to do is observe what these people are trying to do. After all this is the best our country can offer in terms of politicians. Can we do better if your answer is yes give me names please.

  58. SATA SAYS HE WILL APPEAR BEFORE ANY GOVERNMENT INVESTIGATIONS OR ANY INQUIRIES ABOUT ANYTHING, HIS BANK ACCOUNTS ETC LIKE MANDELA DID.

    WHAT IS SO SCARY ABOUT ATTENDING GOVERNMENT INQUIRIES?

    DO RB, HH AND CO. THINK THAT SIKULU WILL BE FORCED INTO SUBMISSION BY THOSE RUBBISH PRESS CONFERENCES?

    WAILASHA SHA MWALI….

  59. they went to south africa to show their foolishness.and besides that is just a smoke screen holding a conference there?

    they went to south to reconcile as top leaders to reboot their sour relationships as a pact.
    These chaps HH,Mumba and RB are not sleeping.

  60. Hh and Nevers are the most dull opposition Leaders Zambia has ever produced.

    What criteria have they used to tell us that P
    F has failed to govern?
    What measures does commonwealth uses to punish a nation?

    I am wondering if we have been living on the some planet
    as HH and Nevers.

    What they are doing is to burry themselves in a political grave.

    All the allegations levelled against this government are just in there sick heads
    lf the heads of the commonwealth are sick then they will buy into this madness.
    Shamless liers!

  61. IT IS VERY INTERESTING THAT SOME PEOPLE CAN SAY THAT THERE IS DICTATORSHIP IN ZAMBIA.WE ALL KNOW WHO A DICTATOR IS. OUR OPPOSITION ARE FREE TO INSULT THE PRESIDENT ANYTIME THEY WANT ON ANY MEDIA. THE POLICE IN TRYING TO MAINTAIN LAW AND ORDER HAVE THE MANDATE IN THE INTEREST OF PEACE TO CANCEL SOME POLITICAL RALLIES. FOR EXAMPLE IF YOU WANT TO HOLD A RALLY IN CAIRO ROAD ON A WORKING DAY, SURELY IT WILL BE FOLLY FOR THE POLICE TO ALLOW SUCH A RALLY. UPND CAN SEEK DISCUSS WITH THE POLICE IG ABOUT THEIR GRIEVENCES AND MATTERS RESOLVED AMICABLY. BUT WHEN YOU BECOME CONFRONTATIONAL, KNOW-IT-ALL, THEN YOU WILL NOT GO ANYWHERE. THE OPPOSITIONIN ITS CURRENT STATE IS DEAD. IT COMMANDS NO FOLLOWING. AND IF ANYTHING, IT HAS BEEN PROVOKING ZAMBIANS.

  62. Given a chance to vote for plot,i guess 90% of bloggers on this site would go for the opposition.Most of you guys talking against the opposition,you can see on the ground that nothing much has been achieved as compared to the campaign promises.Im even wondering why this country can face the reality on the ground.

    • #NEC where are. The situation on the ground is very different. Come 2016, these same people will even cry the loudest. Instead of mobilizing the grass route the so called opposition are running to the international community who cannot vote. There has been some hiccups since PF took over but that is expected. There were to many beuracrats that had and still having allegiance to MMD. What I saw on the ground is a hard working people busy every morning taking care of their Jobs, homesteads and families. If you guys will sit on your comupoters in Paris and write about what you have not seen, wait for 2016. By the way the opposition international press briefing is a clear manifestation that they have lost hope of ever dislodging PF and are canvassing underhand methods to hoodwink the gullible

    • @NEC, baba, the issue in 2011 was choosing between RB and HEMCS because HH was (and is still) a dark horse. Voting for RB for many town dwellers was out of the question. My analysis is that power may continue to shift between MMD and PF. UPND is still considered to be more of a regional party.

  63. The small guys are not after Sata but the Zambians who didnt vote for them. Try something else other than sanctions. Ba pastor mumba should start behaving like a man of God as for sakwiba’muleicaila insoni ebuntu’ we still remember you and BY burning jet fuel’ flying around aimlessly and insulting our intelligence with dora and RB. As for HH, he’s been nominated to the bitter awards in somali.

  64. Hikainde and Nevers are childish and always playing to the gallery. Unfortunately, Hon RB has chosen to join them. RB doesn’t need the help of these two punks to clear his good name.

  65. zambians dont condemn the 3 opposition leaders who petitioned the commonwealth,its not their fault but their backgrounds.
    When you see a person stealing from privitisation to enrich himself while many innocent zedians are sent to their early graves, know he cares less about zambia.
    When u see a person stealing tithe to lead a lavish life while his poor flock whallow in povert, know he can never ve a heart for a zambia
    When you see a person prostituting his soul and balls to other political parties for survival, defending corrupt and filth cases, know he has no heart for zambia
    The above traits motivated our directionless brother to petition the commonwealth.

  66. Am thinking that HH is worse than Tswangirai in that HH is self confessed satanist but both have no interest of their nations at heart. They both rather please themselves and foreigners than their country.

  67. Those with good memory will remember that HH vowed never to let Sata become the president of Zambia. He even went as far as saying “over my dead body!” So it is not surprising that he is trying everything possible to remove Sata from power. He is even using Nevers Mumba who has also git a bone to pick with Sata. So people don’t be surprised if HH resorts to worse actions if all fails.

  68. It is sad very few contributors are constructive in their contributions…EVEN worse is the ZENOPHOBIC attitudes of tribalists…who just attack President Sata and president Hichilema on tribal lines…This is archaic, retrogressive and dangerous…NO WONDER MUSHOTA always has a field day on this site…MUSHOTA where are you kanshi? This is really not helpful to all of us and the people showing sadistic tribal values.
