All People’s Congress (APC) president Nason Msoni has said that he still doubts Justice Minister Wynter Kabimba was delegated with Presidential powers to act as Republican President.

This is despite Secretary to the Cabinet Roland Msiska confirming that President Michael Sata delegated Presidential power to Mr Kabimba by signing the instrument of delegation of the functions of President on Friday, 20th June, 2014 and Gazette Notice No. 385 of 2014 dated 27th June, 2014.

Mr. Msoni said that confirmation by Dr. Msiska has raised more questions than answers.

Mr. Msoni said this is because dates for the signed instrument of delegation functions of President and the publication of Gazette Notice No.385 of 2014 do not reflect the chronological order.

He questioned who was acting republican president between 20th June, 2014 when the instrument of delegation functions of President was signed and June 27th 2014 the date for the issuance of Gazette Notice No.385 of 2014.

Mr Msoni alleges that the two dates that the Secretary to Cabinet has indicated could have been backdated as cover up.

      No, it’s not even tribalism. Abantu abapala uyu mambala Nason Msoni, bakwatafye amafi mumitwe.

    • Government needs to clarify who was acting president between the 20th June and 27th June…It’s obvious there is something fishy here.

    • Lies are just difficult to manage and expensive too. PF is fast learning this fact. Unfortunately for PF there is no room for changing as lies have a way of making someone or an organization to keep telling lies forever.

  1. MSONI – twakunyesha amenshi wengwele. No kwata nensoni wechinangwa. The government has given you the dates and you are still doubting! The handover is effective from the date of signature. Ati eba future possible president ababene sure? Is All People’s Congress the name of a chain of toilets?

    • Typical of a PF Cadre. Lies have caught up with you folks. Next we will start showing Zambians just how on an Individual basis you’re.

      Stop yapping anyhow.

  2. Are these government gazettes being printed these days?I dont remember reading one in the last 25 years!!!

    • Go to government printers, high court library, or National Archives. Everything is there. Even Ministry of Legal Affairs public information office.

  3. Iam sure the government is listening, its not too much to asking for transparency. Nest time even when the President is on leave announce it that way it will reduce speculations and unwarranted tensions. There is nothing wrong for the president to be sick, he is human but he also need support from everyone like any other person. This may include prayer and any other kind words.

  4. APC is a party for the late KENNY NGONDO, msoni is right to question the dates and why the hate on him, whatever u have written against him naiwewine

  5. Whatever these opposition are smoking needs be discovered and band for life before they go completely nuts

  6. I think this stupid Nason fimo fimo is now just being malicious. Any one living in Zambia knows that the Government Gazette is not published everyday. The time I was still working for the government, it was published weekly and I think it looks like is still the case today. 20th June, 2014 was when the instrument of delegation functions of President was signed and it makes sense that June 27th 2014 was the next issuance of Gazette to contain Notice No.385 of 2014.

    • YES: Govt gazzette is published weekly. just right that it came out a week after signing the instruments of power. so what is the problem. kabimba is Acting Presido–period

  7. @2 mwembeshi, waste no time on a petty scumbag like chi msoni. Like u said tachakwata ne nsoni ichi chimuntu bundafye bwafimyemfu, chalichushe na mwanawasa sana mubupaba bwachiko thot he would challenge levy and take over. It appears the political landscape has been so poluted by halenya halenya. All opposition leaders are preoccupied with gossip and petty jealousis. Ngani ka HH kufwaya fye ati sata afwe same way he wished mazoka. Iwe chi msoni utter something away from this subject twanaka ne fimyemfu fyobe ibuju ukonda.

  8. its sad Mr Msoni please be high level minded dont display your ignorance in public. You article was published to show how ineffective you and your caliber. You have disgraced your party for displaying such Grade 7 knowledge of what and how the gazette is published. Resign and pave way for better thinkers. Shame Sir

  9. masoni even if you talk no sense the country is going on smoothly and peacefully controlled by H.E winter kabimba.shame on you ba masoni.
