Guy Scott at Kaoma air strip
VICE President Guy Scott has charged that many people could be forced into exile to seek refuge because of violence if UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema was elected as president of Zambia.
But UPND vice spokesperson Cornelius Mweetwa says the people of Zambia should ignore Dr Scott’s utterances because the Vice President is a joker.
Dr Scott said at press briefing upon arrival in Kaoma that the presence of Mr Hichilema in Mangango in the past few days had witnessed escalating levels of political violence.
“If UPND came to power with this level of violence, then it will be better for Zambians to leave and seek refuge,” said Dr Scott ahead of a series of rallies in the constituency starting with one at Namafulo.
The Vice President said he had spoken to party officials who had however assured him that the ruling party had an upper hand ahead of the polls slated for Tuesday next week.
Dr Scott is in Mangango to drum up support for ruling party Patriotic Front (PF) candidate, Lyambai Lingweshi who is facing five opponents in the Mangango by-elections.
“The Problem here is Hakainde Hichilem, he is undermining the peace,” Dr Scott said. “But I have spoken to our campaign manager, the national chairperson and party officials and am certain we have the upper hand.”
“I am satisfied that our cadres have restrained themselves and I know that the point for UPND was to intimidate the voters so that they don’t go to vote.”
At same briefing, PF national chairperson, Inonge Wina noted that the situation in the area had become worse particularly when Mr Hichilema addressed a rally at Chilombo grounds in the constituency.
“We have gone to the extent of restraining our youths from retaliating from the attacks perpetrated by the UPND, and our youths have managed to restrain,” she said.
She said the party was however concerned that the violence could intimidate the electorates and shun away from voting on Tuesday.
“The people here do not know violence, but we are concerned because people may feel intimidated during the time of voting. We are happy because your presence here will boost the morale,” she said.
Earlier, PF campaign manager, Obvious Mwaliteta said the party was busy delivering the message about development in a peaceful manner.
Mr Mwaliteta claimed that the intentions of the UPND was to force the cancellation of the by-elections because of violence after realising that the opposition party had nothing to tell the people of Mangango.
But in an interview, Mr Mweetwa who disassociated the UPND from acts of violence in the area said the opposition party condemned any form of violence regardless of who was perpetrating it.
He said it was lack of seriousness to suggest victory for the UPND leader could result into exodus of Zambians to seek refuge.
“But we know that he is a comedian and he can continue with his comedy while we are busy campaigning and they are on the verge of defeat in Mangango.
Apart from Mr Lingweshi, the by-elections are beng contested by MMD’s Charles Mwenzala, Mweene Naluwa from the Alliance for Development and Democracy (ADD), Janet Chingumbe of UNIP and Godwin Putu of UPND as well as Mukumbuta Kabuyana from Fourth Revolution Party.
Guy Scott you are becoming very dull.You have just realised that you have finished telling all the lies and now people are tired of you and you have nothing more to tell them.It is better you just shut your big mouth up
For 24 hrs no one commented on this post I thought its wise I say something
. This shows Zambians can no longer politics of slander and useless tribalism tags. PF rethink your strategies. Zambians now are awake. Shemu on sityopet guy scot.
It’s more than being dull but being mentally not okay as well. Mwaliteta obviously told Scot the painful truth that there is no way PF will win. Scot is merely laying ground for response of “because of violence” after the loss as this is a certainty.
Correct mr Scott
Thanks
@Saka, Guy Scott has always been du.ll. The only people who will flee Zambia when HH takes over as President will be the entire PF criminals, corrupt PF govt hyenas, vultures and snakes, fraudsters and tribalists who are currently raping Zambia. So du.ll Guy Scott knows what he’s talking about. Actually as for him he already knows where to go, Scotland where he came from.

LT you can’t even show my comments, why? Are you also scared like Guy Scott? Uhm?
Guy Scott, the people that will be in exile are the PF THIEVES that are afraid of being JAILED for their CORRUPTION, LIES and STEALING!
And the RECYCLED MMD criminals like the Satas and Regina Chiluba that have helped themselves to Zambian taxpayers money!
The day is coming soon!
@Saka-I think this is a serious warning to the Zambians.Guy Scott’s statement should be taken seriously.HH may want to wip the pipo,like he wips his cows.That’s why he rarely smiles,because he deals with cows which don’t smile too.It’s the Ing’ombe Ilede Politics and magement of sleeping cows.
@Bo Mubita-I agree with you.HH may think that Economic Management is like managing sleeping cows.These UPND Species call him as a ‘successful’ animal keeper businessman.Animal feelings are NOT human beings feelings.To be Forewarned is to be forearmed.Zambians,open your eyes-mind where you place your presidential vote.
Am afraid i wont come back to my country when the free mason devil worshiper is elected.The man who cannot even apologise for looting our privatisation money.
When PF factions were butchering each other in Lusaka, where was Guy Scott, nor Sata himself? When PF were chasing and clobbering people at the Kabwata rally where was PF to comment on their violence. In Mkaika when David Phiri’s brother was beaten up by PF cadres, all that was never seen or heard by the PF leadership? Now that lies have run out, the PF is now resorting to scare mongering. Most people and the police force know who the perpetrators of violence are. If PF were to end this habit of ferrying there hit squads, all this violence would not be heard of. Too bad the prognosis is that PF will be dealt a heavy blow in these and next months by-elections. PF has out lived its welcome.
Oh my God! Just when you think, this man Scott will speak sense, it even gets worse.
I am from North-Western, and Sata declared open hatred for the people of North Western. And as long Sata is President, my family will never relocate from North Carolina to Zambia. Because I cant get a good job there. The only thing I can do is visit Zambia and also send money to my relatives and my charity activities in my home village.
Sata`s tribalism has caused many Zambians to relocate to other countries for good jobs.
So what is this Scottish retard talking about??????

Mubita and Sir Nyambe you’re the same Ituri guy pretending to be a Morotse. You’re cheap. Just use your Ituri name suck.er! U sitoto se situna ahulu. Cwale wipatela sikamang ?
DR GUY SCOTT IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. BUT, ZAMBIANS SHOULDN’T F00L THEMSELVES TO THINK THAT NEIGHBOURING COUNTRIES CAN ACCEPT THEM AS REFUGEES. ZAMBIANS WOULD BE DYING LIKE RATS IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY. TO AVOID THAT CHANCE OF HAPPENING ZAMBIANS MUST AT ALL COST AVOID VIOLENT, TRIBAL AND RACIAL LEADERSHIP.
@Ndate Sibeso,
Thank you for exposing this Ituri hiding behind Lozi names, why is he ashamed of identifying himself with the region he comes from?
Yes people like me won`t go back to Zambia if under 5 becomes president. I will denounce my Zambian citizenship if it so happens.
we would not allow a nondescript political fly to hold the whole country and its people at ransom.
It would be easy to sort out that problem……
swat the fly and problem solved
Old age has it’s own problems and Guy Scott seems to be exhibiting such already. I he has nothing sensible to say why not shut up kupela…………..Why are you trying to demonize HH. Most Zambians know your evil schemes. HH GO GOOOO….. FORWARD
Saulosi and Robin…do us a favour and just do what you say in your “contribution” above. We don’t need people like you.. bushe kwati ku papata ifi mano fyenu.
For 24 hrs no one commented on this post I thought its wise I say something

Heard a similar line in 2011 as well, though nothing like such happened. Will take it as a small joke.
Mr.Scott ,I will the first to pack my backs and head back to Zed!
A lot of us are already living in exile under PF which only seems to consider people from Luapula, Northern, Muchinga and Eastern provinces ( oh and Scotland of course )? as Zambians . The rest of us are refugees, internally displaced or living in outright exile. Guy Scot give us a break – go and help Scotland get indepence from England. They have been a ‘small tribe ‘ to those Englishmen for too long – Actually, come to think of it , it is Guy Scott who is in exile in Zambia. He ran away from Scotland because he was a ‘small tribe ‘ there.
Guy Scott is the worst and most primitive white man Sata ever imported to invade the political landscape in this country.
Zambians should be strongly assured that the many Zambians Guy Scott is revealing would be forced to go into exile and seek refuge when normality and the rule of Law will be restored in Zambia will be a fleet of criminals, financial trick-stars, fraud-stars, panga wilders and a diversity of evil men and women who have been protected by the PF party.
After all violence is the culture that is strongly well-entrenched in PF. We still remember the violence perpetrated by PF in Livingstone, Rufunsa and Katete.
Guy Sott has exploited his attendance of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow to seek for a home when PF loses elections in 2016.
You have really hit the nail on the head. Very true. The only people who will flee Zambia when HH takes over will be the PF criminals who are currently raping Zambia.
So the VICE President Guy Scott went to Mangango to talk about HH instead of campaigning for the old man Mr Lingweshi.Please think before you talk about HH as you are making him purpolar.Its like HH HH HH HH HH HH HH HH HH HH HH is the talk of PF nowasdays.
No. 6 (HH), so you are saying that by insulting Sata, you are making him more popular tefyo. For some of us, HH is not a factor. So by reminding HH that He stood at a podium with fellow Tongas and made a declaration is making him popular? Do you think Zambians have forgotten that declaration of ‘ONLY A TONGA CAN LEAD UPND’. I for one cannot waste my vote on a free mason. HH is a tribalist leading a tonga party and CANNOT, I REPEAT, CANNOT LEAD ZAMBIA”. I rest my case.
@Advocate
The congolose thieves and criminals will not vote HH. That is well documented. However, after the failed experiment of Sata, the bulk of Eastern, Western, Central, North West, Southern and C/belt will vote HH.
I speak for other Zambians in Lusaka, Cbelt and Western who I have heard say they will never allow themselves to be cheated the way Sata dribbled them with his donchi kubeba.
So start preparing for the inevitable; no more lying an corrupt congolese at state house.
It is guy scott fearing for himself. Afraid of his own shadow. The quilty are always afraid.
@Red Square for sure I cant wait to be home when Zambia will b economically stable. I miss home.
Mweetwa u r right for sure mai Guy is a comedian.
Thumbs up UPND be MORE RESELIENT. PF r smelling a worst defeat EVER IN HISTORY.
Viva UPND Viva New Blood
Since PF claim to have an upper hand, we don’t want to hear about petitions!!!
What do they call that disease? PARKINSON? Something like that. I think it is real it exists in Zambia. Someone has it but i do not know who!
Scott will not be allowed to leave this country because you will be made to answer for your pathetic lies. Chiluba was clever enough to suck this chap from the MMD because he saw how dangerous this fella is. How dare you think by manipulating vulnerable Zambians you have control of the country. You will be arrested whether in your native Scotland or your nameless village in Zambia. Silly man.
It is only you guy Scott who will be caged don’t think you can fool zambians any more go and tell your friend hiding in state house grounds that things have gone bad the voters will sort you out.
when a wise man walks with fools, he becomes a fool. Scot has become such a fool. Maybe him & Sata will be the refuges for stealing from Zambians. but once PF goes, there will be no political violence in Zambia
If the statement was made by somebody in the opposition Iam sure the Police would be all over each other crying the statement is alarming and causing despondency, fear and insecurity in the nation. Maybe because Guy Scott is now known for making comments he later regrets, he is being excused.
HH this HH that HH what HH there HH daily HH MMD HH PF HH Why not HH in NAREP.
Why HH alone?
Who is HH?
HH is the next President of Zambia! SCOTT HAS TO GO
MMD is the only option,coz PF is 80% Bembas and UPND is 90% Tongas and only MMD come out as a PArty for all Zambians.
Vote for MMD or vote for UPND and see PF pay the Hard way to HH
MMD are a BUNCH of thieves. Regina Chiluba’s 28 million Pounds has been block by Finland. Can you imagine that…. and these MMD thieves are still denying?? 28 million pounds works out to ZMK300 billion old currency! can you imagine how many clinics and Secondary Schools that amount of money can build?
Finland blocks £28 million belonging to Regina Chiluba.
This should be a lesson for all the thugs who are stealing and hoping to flee to foreign land as proposed by Guy schott.
Those proceed you will not chew the proceeds of crime. We shall call the international community to freeze all foreign accounts. May be the option should be like Liato formular or indians or else, you will go back to zero option as beggars. Watch this space
Oh my God! Just when you think, this man Scott will speak sense, it even gets worse.
I am from North-Western, and Sata declared open hatred for the people of North Western. And as long Sata is President, my family will never relocate from North Carolina to Zambia.

So what is this Scottish retard talking about?
…. Scott may just be right for once this time around. Some ‘leaders’ shall definitely seek refuge in other countries not because of persecution or violence, but because of guilty conscious for the pilfering/plundering of nation resources. I’ m sure the ‘refuge’ countries have already been sort. How can one explain the unfruitful, aimless trips to Cuba..Sudan…???
We have heard such statements before. Kaunda uttered them in 1991…..
My advise to Scott and company is that there is still time to correct and redeem themselves….(if the damage has not been done beyond redemption..)
Bwana Scot, we are already in exile under PF which regards only retards for crucial and critical jobs in government. When UPND or MMD come into power, we are coming home to help the country develop. You and your thieving comrades are the ones that will go into exile and I hope you take some of your friends to Scotland when you flee.
bo mubita ni bo nyambe your thinking is so narrow try to widen up
UPND will not win the 2016 polls and HH knows this fact very well. It was just this year (2014) when HH told his supporters that their numbers were not sufficient to give him the presidency and so they should not be intimidating MMD members who are being poached. Majority of Zambian voters including the young new comers are simply not naturally attracted to UPND and this explains the downward trajectory of this party from 27% to 18%.UPND has lost so much political ground that today it can only boast of 1 stronghold (Southern Province) unlike during the reign of late Anderson Mazoka when it had 3 strongholds(Southern, North-Western & Western).UPND will not win in 2016 as it has past its best and has not leveraged on its 17 years political existence.
Yaba..desperately trying to sound intelligent on fake numbers and shoddy analysis. This aint a Barcelona game mudala.
Clearly, there are no exceptions in PF. Every single one of them is dull. More especially this Scottish man. What a curse Zambians called upon themselves to vote for these brainless characters.
Whether I like it or not UPND is winning,and there is nothing you can do about it. HH continues the pressure,giving pf thugs sleepless nights and vampire dreams
How many times have you said UPND is winning but you always lose???
Any way I have no words but I just wait for 2016 when Zambians shall decide which party to lead Zambia. To tell you the truth , it will be the same …. UPND will lose.
I end here …bye.
UPND will only win in southern province but will fail to dominate in the other provinces just as it has been the case ever since HH became it’s leader. Since 2006 when HH took over, UPND has failed to sustain its 27% popularity and instead the party has been on a free fall and now stands at 18%.This is a party which has the same number of voters voting for it and therefore stands no chance to win a national election. PF had 4 strongholds in the 2008 elections (Copperbelt,Lusaka,Luapula & Northern) but still failed to win the election. UPND has no chance to win the 2016 election.
Luckily for Zambians, they will never experience refugee and exile life because HH will never rule. The chap is only capable of ruling cows.
MR Scoty,
No , we will not go out of this country, Zambia is our country. Zambians will not just vote for UPND period. Who can vote for a party that has become so violent ? No sir , Zambians will not give any chance HH to rule, we have seen how selfish he is, he may just privatize the country as he is an expert in privatization.
@Truth Hates,
Surely, what Scotty has said is simply daft and irresponsible? Point from a neutral. Zambians won’t flee in droves under any party, PF included.
Matter of fact, the violence we are seeing is as a result of idleness (lack of jobs among the youth) and manipulative politicians. there is probably just more of them now than before 2011.
My fascination with a comment such as yours is that it is devoid of national interest, but instead absurdly partisan. Politicians are not the omega and alpha. We sometimes have to help them seek solutions in the national interest.
The guy is the Vice President. There is much he could have said to woo votes. Instead he lets his heart rule, perhaps out of exhaustion. What a disgrace and waste of time?
Truth Hates….the name suggests it. You are hateful of the truth which is what you refuse to believe. You are lost. Very lost. Tekanya ka mudhala. YOUR Tribalism and hatred will lead to nothing. Bless you…oh bless you…my child…
Free seat for UPND, come 2016 or presidential by-election i will personally volunteer to fumigate and disinfection nkwazi house for the young and fresh HH
Three Cheers!!!
HH will only be president in your dreams. UPND has already past its best and now only has 1 stronghold(Southern Province).PF failed to win the 2008 elections despite having 4 strongholds(Lusaka, Copperbelt, Luapula & Northern).The popularity of UPND has dropped over the past 9 years HH has been at the helm of the party from 27% to now 18%.UPND has no chance of winning a national election.
Zambians have no problem with HH but lies coming from the pf leadership.
Why only mentioning UPND? You’re just under pressure. VIVA UPND
Iwe chi GUY SCOTT STOP laying we chipuba ichi musungu ichi shakwata amano. Kabwalala wa nsofu, zebra and impalas
Learn to debate intelligently as opposed to insulting like they do on ZWD site.
@ Truth Hate YOU WILL DIE WITH YOUR HATRED. Youngman WE NEED MANAGERS TO RUN THIS COUNTRY.
HH is the Only Man at the Moment.
He is remaining with Northern, Luapula and Eastern then the DEAL will b OVER.
He is GIFTED ADMINISTRATIVELY. He is the “Man of the Moment”.
Viva HH Viva New Blood.
Man,
Remember that even in 2011 elections , that’s how you rated HH… so high. UPND was assured of scoping plot 1.
We told you that it would not happen and really plot 1 went to Sata. You were shocked and devastated …the same is happening in 2016, your HH is losing for a 5th time. I just pray for you not to commit suicide coz the fall of UPND will be so great and painful.
My friend I end here and I just wait for 2016. Have a great day in your dreams of HH in plot 1.
You were bragging that UPND had gained more popularity on the Copperbelt and Lusaka Provinces than PF prior to 2011 elections but only to get 11% share of votes in Lusaka and 3% on the Copperbelt. UPND has not made any inroads outside their traditional stronghold (Southern Province) and so they will suffer an embarrassing defeat in 2016. Winning a national election is not an easy task because even PF failed to win the 2008 election despite dominating in 4 provinces(Copperbelt,Lusaka,Luapula and Northern).
Guy Scott is the tribalist in this country, each time he talks about HH, he always refers to him by his tribe, I am an avid reader of the papers and have yet to read anywhere or any paper where HH made a tribal remark; shame on you Scott, we looked up to the whites as being honest and truthful but you have proved us wrong; you have no scruples and will do anything for your salary.
Self exiled to hide from the law and peoples who have been stolen from, abused and swindled by kaponyas who fail to understand that the whole world know who you are and where you will go whether it be related to stealing, abuse of power or violence. A whole family of relatives and favourites will be looking at suit cases….those will be the exiles… not normal Zambians.
Stop day dreaming here…UPND a tribal party will never be given chance by Zambians to rule this peaceful Country….impossible…..impossible…..how ? The chaps are violent injuring innocent people everyday.How do u entrust them with power ?
