Expelled UPND Sinazongwe MP Richwell Siamunene has decided to challenge his expulsion in court.

The UPND recently expelled Mr. Siamunene for gross misconduct after he failed to appear before a disciplinary committee hearing.

But Mr. Siamunene said he has instructed his lawyers to apply to the courts of law to seek the court’s intervention over his expulsion.

He said through the court process, he will have an opportunity to highlight the failure of leadership in the UPND.

“I think people should know what type of a leader Mr. Hakainde Hichilema is. He bulldozes every decision in that particular organisation and even my expulsion was initiated by him and Zambians should know the type of leaders vying for public office,” Mr. Siamunene said.

He stated that the manner in which he was expelled was unconstitutional.

“Am in Sinazongwe currently and consulting with the local leadership here on my next move but I have told my lawyers to commence with the court process.”

  1. “I think people should know what type of a leader Mr. Hakainde Hichilema is. He bulldozes every decision in that particular organisation and even my expulsion was initiated by him and Zambians should know the type of leaders vying for public office,”Mr. Siamunene said.Spot on ! Hikainde must learn some democratic skills.He is such a selfish and egocentric leader.All the the best with the judicial processes bo Siamunene.

    • That description sounds more like your SataN. His ministers won’t open their mouths unless on his orders!! Siamunene was given a platform to exercise his rights but he scorned the people who enabled him get that position and he now wants to blame HH? Why go to court when you asked for it? Stop wasting peoples time and energy. Just go back to your kantemba because you won’t be adopted

    • There is enough case precedence that UPND has no reason to worry about the outcome of the law suit. The man is just buying time and in the process wasting his money or may I say, PF’s money.

    • Wamona,Having rubbed shoulders with the wrong people,now you are having hallucinations.The person you are describing is your new boss in PF and not HH.Why do you want to change your mind?fearing that you won’t be adopted or buying time tactics.PF are like the devil.USE YOU THEN KILL YOU LATER

    • HH is the most stool peed man i have come to know. The chap is selfish and self centred. Siamunene go to court and we see what HH will do? If HH is for Zambia why does he want a by election when he knows it costs a lot of money. The man is a swine.

  2. HH has no people skills. That makes him non presidential material. May Mazoka’s soul rest in peace!

    • YOU ARE CONSTIPATED MR.BEMBA WATCH!HH HAS AND IS MOBILIZING A TEAM THAT WILL TAKE ZAMBIA TO A NEW LEVEL.DON’T COMPARE YOUR PF WHICH IS FULL OF FOSSILS.HE MAY NOT BE A POLITICIAN ,BUT LIKE THE LATE MWANAWASA ,HE HAS THE BUSSINESS AND ECONOMIC ACUMEN TO RESTORE ZAMBIA TO IT’S FORMER GLORY AND EVEN BETTER.

  3. The argument against HH is weak or debatable. Micheal Sata is 100 times worse than HH. He creates districts alone (instead of the Minister of Local Government), he creates provinces alone, realigns provinces, districts and Ministries alone, the list is endless. HH may be a bad leader as Siamunene put it, but the man he joined (Micheal) has the weakness of HH a hundredfold. So, why exactly did you resign for? If you don’t like HH’s leadership, why do you want to contest your expulsion when you don’t believe in his leadership? Siamunuene seems childish and mixed up. Such are the parliamentarians we have! By joining PF you should seen the expulsion coming. Simple logic huh!

  4. But why be in a party whose leader u do not think is wise……why contest ur expulsion…..wat have the courts got to do with H.H calibre as a leader…..wat siamumnene is saying makes no sense at all…..kicks of a dying horse….

  5. Siamunene’s argument very childish and without merit. Joining the dictator for more money in his pocket but sori for 3 months only then u lose that seat i c u coming back to UPND.

  6. This guy does not know what he wants. When you join a team, you first study and know the rules well before you start playing. He wants to define UPND rules himself. He wants to be with PF and at the same time contesting his expulsion in a court of law. He is confused. Siamuneke, just sit back and suffer the consequences.

  7. Badaala, bwina bwagola.You thought you were clever.No,just bit the bullet and leave in PEACE.Buying time won””t help you.How long are you going to consult ,because the first time you were appointed you told the nation that you were in the same area consulting?HH IS VERY ENOCENT.HE is just friendly, fair,and FIRM to you weak ,upcoming leaders.

  8. If HH is what u describe him why then going to court? HH was not appointed by court, pipo appointed HH. Pipo voted u into parliament thru UPND, there4, recontest that seat and prove it.

  9. This is a clear abuse of the legal process. This guy thinks Zambians are fools. What he wants is to the court to delay his expulsion so that he still remains a minister and use government resources to campaign for the pending by elections. Belive me I work for the government department and know how childish he is and the amount of advances he has taken since becoming Minister. Last week K100 Million was paid to him as Subsistence allowance for his trip to explain to the people on fuel

  10. Just looking at his face,you can not doubt his silly reasoning.these are the types teachers ignore in class to answer anything despite putting their hands up.

  11. But Siamunene you are an ***** and dull. If HH is a bad person, then why do you want to apeal. You have now become a pathetic fool. (pf)

  12. chinena what is your stance? you blame your leader called HH at the same time you want to remain in the party is HH going to spare you. are you a tonga or what because i was told tongas are loyal. there is hunger in zambia for sure.

  13. I will vote for HH, Siamunene you are disgrace to the opposition in Zambia, why cling to a party you discredit? Go to your Cnp we will remain with our HH knowing very well that HH & the Upnd team will transform our country economically, socially etc some day.

  14. WE R NOT GOING TO KILL MONDE OR SIAMUNENE & INDEED THE OTHERS, WE, IN UPND, SHALL EXPEL THEM BCOS THEY HAVE BETRAYED THE TRUST OF THE ‘PEOPLE’. EG, WE R AGAINST SUBSIDIES, R YU M’EMBE TELLING US THAT SIAMUNENE, MONDE, PONISO & OTHERS SERVING IN EXECUTIVE R WITH US ON THIS ONE?
    *********************************************************************************
    SHALLOW THINKING INDEED! SO OBAMA SHOULD EXPEL ALL THOSE IN GOVERNMENT WHO ARE ANTI-GAY, ANTI-ABORTION? etc..

  15. Siamunene: “Mr. Judge, HH is a dictator, a bad man he’s not worthy to be a leader, he doesn’t want me to be a Minister in PF as well as being in UPND. I refused to appear before their disciplinary committee because I’m no longer their MP but I represent the people of Sinazongwe as a UPND MP and PF Government Minister. So Judge prevent HH from expelling me for I still want to be his MP but under PF and the people of Sinazongwe”.
    Folks, this is obviously a very confused analogue from an equally confused man.

  16. It is not true that hh is better than sata.Sata is miles and miles ahead of hh in terms of public service history.Sata initiated fly over bridge at zesco,new avondale,merzaf flats,he introduced new uniforms for nurses,pair of trousers and a top.when he was at the ministry of labour few strikes and please dont argue you were not there!!.Now with hh zero,nothing,naught,taaku.Politically also Sata formed a political party and 10yrs down the line formed govt today he is president.HH NEVER NEVER formed upnd it was through inheritance and he also inherited Mr Ngondo’s party! that is the reason upnd has failed to go beyond s/province and you still fantasize forming govt in 2016 I say KAYA TIZA ONAKO .

  17. The rate of failure displayed by PF will make any sane person never to give a vote to PF anymore. It is only tribalists who support failure even when a blind person playing a guitar on the streets of Lusaka will smell failure.
