FIVE Patriotic Front (PF) officials were yesterday detained at Kitwe central police station for alleged conduct likely to cause breach of peace.
Copperbelt deputy Commissioner of Police Richard Mweene confirmed the arrest and named the five as Steven Chindindi, Francis Salim, Moses Musonda, Charles Kabwita and Michael Chileshe.
The five allegedly paralysed operations at the Kitwe City Council (KCC) after they locked the Director of Administration and Human Resource’s office.
They accused Mr Wisdom Bwalya of working with an opposition political party and leaking important information.
The group led by Mr Kabwita, who is Chimwemwe ward councillor locked Mr Bwalya’s office around 07:30 hours yesterday and demanded that he be retired.
The five damaged the handle of the door to the director’s office but quick action by police prevented them from causing further damage.
PF Kitwe District youth secretary Mukuzo Kaboba, said the party officials locked Mr Bwalya’s office because he was allegedly compromising the operations of the council by being partisan.
Sata thrives in confusion!
Leave Sata alone, he has worse deeds than those petty issues caused by Kabimba.
Let Sata deal with the Chibesakunda’s and other Judges, he has to end Chirwa’s career in a more fair way too.
Not tuma City council appointments Kabimba makes.
Mumba was right
There is anarchy in the country. Trouble anywhere in the the country is a deadly recipe for disaster everywhere in the country if left unchecked and nipped in the bud. Mark my words! How can uneducated morons lock hard earned offices of the educated? Jungle laws indeed. We are living in the dog eat dog era!
Wow! First time ever hearing that PF are reprimanded. I wish this would be the norm rather than the exception. For once – positive action. Not always just attacking UPND and MMD. Let fairness reign in Zambia
Police in Zambia are toothless, weak, useless and reduced to spectators of the lowest caliber. The ones supposed to protect our country are contented with merely watching from the sidelines while the country is going to the dogs. We need some few security officers with some balls.
Ama youth,ba kabolala,PF will go out of power one day,mwembushi mwe
they will also shift camp. you cant see that the same youths promped up MMD!
Zambia has gone to dogs, opposition group cannot protest while pf cadres can any time they like with or without a permit, sata used to insult other , today he cannot handle the same recipe, the list is endless,
Is not the hospital administrator a civil servant? How do political party cadres get involved in disciplining ailing civil servants? Or is he a PF party cadre who has fallen out of grace in this show down between the giants in PF?
Wapya munzi
Sata in this coming month of October use it to put an end to lawlessness by these tools of oppression ,cadres should be managed not left to carry out Your dirty work.if you don’t want Mabimba anymore needless for cadre involvement ,just fire him and move on with dignity.you are not driving very well lately my president.
These Savages are turning Zambia into a Stone age Nation!
Sata, please show leadership here. If Sata tells these Wild Creatures – known as “Cadres”, they will face party sanction, + the full weight of the Police & Justice system, for their un- civilised acts, & allows the Police & justice system to work without being hindered, all these savage acts will cease immediately!
Zambia shall indeed be saved.
BA PF CADRES BWAFYA NSHI KANSHI MWAKWATA, MWE BANTU – EVERYWHERE, EVERYDAY THERE IS TROUBLE IN THE COUNTRY BECAUSE OF SOME PF CADRES DOING ALL SORTS OF THINGS IN THE NAME OF SUPPORTING THE PARTY AND THE PRESIDENT – ARE YOU GUYS REASONABLE OR ON THE OTHER HAND ARE YOU WELL COOKED IN YOUR HEADS ? I AT TIMES WONDER WHERE IF WE ARE DEALING WITH EMPTY TINS (IMBECILES) SO TO SAY ? WHERE IS THIS INHUMAN BEHAVIOUR COMING FROM ? KWENA MULI MBWA, BA SHETANI – LEAVE INNOCENT PEOPLE ALONE AND TO HELL WITH YOUR BARBARIC BEHAVIOUR.
If you are attacked by wild pf thugs dont hesitate to defend yoself. For the first time to hear a number of pf thugs arrested by zp hope they will be taken to court.
This is what we see coming ahead where there is no vision. For sure how can cadres go and remove a civil servant indeed? It is worrisome now. Baya sana.
Next kabwita should lock kabimbas’ office and Gmbs’ toilet doors.
