Former Zambia Railways Limited (ZRL) Chief Executive officer Professor Clive Chirwa has now decided to remain mute over his threats to renounce his Zambian citizenship if government did not release his passport.

Professor Chirwa on Friday gave government 24 hours to return his passport to enable him travel to see his family and attend late former South African president Nelson Mandela or he will renounce his citizenship.

Speaking to Qfm News in a telephone interview, on what he would do next now that government has not released his passport following the expiry of his ultimatum, Professor Chirwa who sounded in a low voice says he said whatever he wanted to say and had no further comments.

    • i bet him now sees how childish his sentiment were; ati and all the other democrats, mawe, kwati kaiche. reminds me of those days as a child; ngaulefwaya umunobe to accept you or buy an idea, you kind of praise or talk highly of those not present for accepting or holding a particular idea. that way your friend in his psyche thinks or changes his view to suit those friends not present to appear modern or get the same praises you showered on the others by virtue of now belonging to that “elite group”. eyaba chirwa ati and the other democrats kwati ba GRZ will be like “oh, we also want to be refered to as that, lets give him his passport”. Koma baiche ba mdala aba!! buti ku skulu awe sure limbi niba genius. thats why pre-european african education focused on everything and not one field.

    • The mind needs to be developed in everything and not just one specific area (math, physics etc.), but also in political science, economy, sociology, history , philosophy etc. that way you become educated in the real way because you develop every known mental faculty of yourself and help bring the other faculties unknown to light (innovation). Infact that’s what a real education is, the development and knowledge of self. How can you say am educated when you don’t know who you are? We should change the education system pa zed otherwise we will be seeing more of this type of rhetoric from what we consider educated people. Introduce the classics to engineering courses also, like history, philosophy, sociology, political science etc, as mandatory semester courses.

  1. Chirwa, Can you please go and be enslaved, who do you think really cares about your personal achievements for you to come and insult Zambians, remember people like Bill gates did not even finish their Uni studies but are prosperous… So Mwana go to Boston Uni after-all you just an employee of an under raked UNI…..

    • Correction, he was not employed by BOSTON UNIVERSITY but BOLTON UNIVERSITY in UK. Boston is in the US and is a fantastic university, Bolton in the Northwest England and is a former Polytechnic that was upgraded to become a university (if there is anything like that….upgrading a small college to university}

  2. Me no further comments too. In Zambia ultimatums are given just scare opponents. Am now giving Govt 48 hours within which to cut all breasts. This will reduce the occurrence of cervical cancer in women by 95%. Who needs breasts anyway? Babies can grow up on formula.

  4. the only ultimatum that came to fruition was Sata firing the nurses. truly Sata is a man of action. i hear the chingola kitwe dual carriage way is underway, the bottom road half way through, mongu- kalabo road being done, universities in western and Muchinga. Decentralization through creation of new districts. He has also retained the dignity of our founding father KK.civil servants going home with better pays, etc. HH continue plotting your sabotage whilst Zambians are enjoying prosperity under PF. just like u demonstrated alone that day on the freedom statue is the way u will vote for yourself alone.

    • nokoh ichinyoh praise singer ukadabwa sana.only a fool like you can be hoodwinked.you don’t know that this bustaaard has just crucified himself.the projects you are blinded about hinge on borrowed money.and part of that money has already been diverted to other mischievious things so the coffers are drying and you weak soul will see how he will finish them.ask isoka-chama road contractor. next year this time all those will be deserted sites and we will see what chorus sickheads like you will sing.

    • He didn’t renounce his British citizenship but played a ” don’t kubeba” on the authorities. Agree or diagree, he is an international Conman afterall. I did ask in the last Chirwa article that one only needs to examine statements attributed to him to see that something is not quite right with Chirwa.

  5. Interesting! I recall this guy claiming he would go back to England if somebody interfered in his job at ZR because according to him he was making a sacrifice to help Zambia leaving hefty income back “home”,well,what is he doing at CBU,boasting nanjala!

  6. Some outbursts makes you think twice. What ignited all that ranting about family, Mandela funeral, reouncing Zambian citizenship, Atanga, Kapeya, performance, achievements, small brain, behind skirt, Pew, that was outburst, Professor! Also a mismatch of topics all because of passport !,?;,. Confused dot com eish! You need a sober mind Prof.because in so much as you can say what you said, there is a case at hand. Just clear your name and then head wherever you want to go. Even a grade 1 adult like me can advise so. Yes am grade 1 adult after all I completed grade 1 class will good passes. Sober down man. Something was wrong with the way you went in. Especially none disclosure of interest for your company, thats tantamount to insider trader who makes a lot of money in financial trades. Calm.

    • i wont wat kind of a proffessor he is if he can cheapen himself the way he has. he’s lost objectivity and i think he loved the job so much. today he accuses the board tomorrow the PS. who needs him anyway? i guess he needs zambia more than we need him. the reason he is so personal and emotional like a girl child

    • i wonder what kind of a professor he is if he can cheapen himself the way he has. he’s lost objectivity and i think he loved the job so much. today he accuses the board tomorrow the PS. who needs him anyway? i guess he needs Zambia more than we need him. the reason he is so personal and emotional like a girl child

    • But Does Atanga really has a PhD? coz chirwa is telling the truth, he never got it from harvard. This is not jealous coz Masumba was arrested for false pretense

    • He is complaining about the long time it’s taking to dispose of his case. Before he was arrested the ACC assured the nation that they had enough evidence to prosecute him but its now almost a year before the case takes off. By the way, how many of the government officials that were staying at those expensive villas or whoever authorised their stay there have been arrested for corruption?

  7. It sounds confusing but it is true. The coach is not a player. Every striker is proud of the talent and fame. There is no need to apologize for that. Government officials should not embarrass, humiliate,insult or ridicule defenseless individuals. It is better to express sympathy and remain firm, calm and committed to observing the rule of law. Fairness and kindness make good investment. They tend to yield dividends. How about moving to the National Airline? That is also transportation. Built on precision and machines. This time, any Board member must not take over from CEO because that leaves room for a set up.

  8. ? ????? ??????????? ???? ?????????. ?? ?????? ????????? ? ??????? ?????? ? ???????? ???, ?????? ??????? ????? ????? ????, ??? ????? ????? ??????????? ????? ????????? ????? ? ??? ?????? ????????!!!

  9. …the prof. has just realised or been advised that he will be heaped with another charge of being in Zambia with two citizenry soon after he makes his renouncement…..the guy is now stuck and stranded. Let him try HUNGER STRIKE….

  10. I am very disappointed with this Professor. He should go back to the snowy Russia and get himself a second Russian wife may be she will be able to pump some sense in his aging head!!!

  11. I am very disappointed with this Professor. He should go back to the snowy Russia and get himself a second Russian wife may be she will be able to pump some sense in his aging head!!! Or alse we shaall exile him to Siberia in Kalhozies.

  12. But Does Atanga really has a PhD? coz chirwa might be telling the truth, he never got it from Harvard. This is not jealous coz Masumba was arrested for false pretense. I hear a number of UNZA lecturers come home from studies abroad without finishing their PhDs and lie their way thru the UNZA system with false documents. Just as much as we hate Chirwa now, we cant discard everything he says as not true.

  13. I think chirwa deserves this treatment, how can an upright man trust cyle mate ukwa the bold head freaker? now you know him and the wicknedness he is

  14. Ati chroloquine ifyofine watuka yo freinds mother you included yo mama.Let ka chiwa not chirwa go to hel proff without wisdom.

  15. Only make such threats if you are absolutely ready to carry them through in case someone calls your bluff…

  16. My brother Mr chirwa, ukusenda inchinsendwa ku nkoko kunakilila. Mukapupuluka simuiona maso nkoya. Hold your peace. Be very sensitive with what you say. If anything… Dont kubeba. stop those threats… Pano nipa zed

  17. Mistake or no mistake, Chirwa is Zambian. One would expect that in how own country he would receive sympathy and help. Where is Mpezeni or Gawa Undi? How do you allow your own blood, your own son to be tormented like this you people? If I was in his shoes and Mwata Kazembe could not raise a single word, I would be a very sad person indeed. Chirwa has offended people, and people have a right to be offended; however, the treatment and insults he is getting is unjustifiable. Treating your own people this way does not lead any society to development, never!! Surprisingly, if a Zambian does well in something, say football, the whole country would wish to be associated with him or her!! Its a sad episode for all this Chirwa issue.
