Kasama Central PF Member of Parliament Geoffrey Bwalya Mwamba has called on PF members in Kasama and across the country to renew their commitment to the ideals which made them the party of Choice in 2011.

On his Facebook posting, Mr. Mwamba says there are sections of society who ferment tribalism to suit their ill-agendas.

Mr. Mwamba, popularly known as GBM, says the members must be reminded that PF is for all Zambians from all walks of life.

He says if one finds a PF member being tribal, they should be told to stop because it is anti- PF and un-Zambian to champion an evil such as tribalism.

Mr. Mwamba, who is also former Defense Minister, adds that it remains wishful thinking that PF’s national character can be tainted by a few men and women of ill-intent.

The Kasama Central lawmaker furthermore adds that it is therefore a duty of every PF member to ensure PF remains the party of choice.

Mr. Mwamba says there is also need to remain loyal and supportive of President Michael Sata in order to deliver to the expectations of the people.

  1. This is one buffoon with no principles at all, so has Sata recognised your si.lly relative as chief for you to reconcile with him.smh

    • kabimba was right – there more tribalists in pf than a needles eye. so nomba ba GBM is willing to work with Sata again because Kabimba is out? Just say, you are happy now that you are assured that the next pf president is going to be another northerner. Like Robin has pointed out, the status quo with you chief Manga chitimukulu is still the same and you alleged that you cant go against your family as a principle. But chitimukulu is still living in a tent instead of a palace. You sir are a joke and tribalist.

    • When GBM resigned his ministrial position, I was very clear that it had nothing to do with the issue involving the Paramount Chief Chiti Mukulu but rather that his resignation was simply down to the fact that he was badly bruised when Sata appeared to be on Kabimba’s side during the his and Kabimba’s heavy confrontation. Today GBM is reported to be claiming that he has reconciled with Sata and that Kabimba was the main reason he resigned.
      Zambians, let mature politically and discard these wolves pretending to be leaders while they enrich themselves over your little baskets.

    • Let them be removed from power,they want to regroup like monkeys in a maize field and rip our country with its few resources left.You can not have one tribe in all positions.We will not repeat the Chiluba era

    • Haaah you sayn Fat Albert is ze bafoon …And soon you will be calling me Chishimba Kambwili sa bafoon aswell….

  2. For sure there are no permanent enemies in politics. However, PF is the most tribal party in the history of Zambia. They can pretend as much as they want but one day things will change. Just the way Kabimba thought he was invisible, so will people get fed up of PF

  3. This hypocrite Mwamba is back and has started to campaign for himself for a big position in government. Who is he lecturing to about unity and tribalism? Going by the events of last week we know that Bembas are ganging up and any non-bemba who tries to resist will be injured, yes that’s the warning issued by the all-powerful Chikwanda.

    • I guess Lungu who is legal affairs and defense minister is also Bemba just masquerading as an Easterner right? Buffoons stop this tribal nonsense!

    • Lungu, Wina and Simuusa are just being used as smoke in a clearly Bemba domination tribal agenda – u have no shame

    • If at all they have any moral sense, Lungu, Wina, Simuusa and whoever else in PF, should learn a lesson from Kabimba. The trail of the victims of Bemba tribalism is long enough for any sincere person to see.

  4. Listen to this: ‘…to renew their commitment to the ideals which made them the party of Choice in 2011…’. Which ‘ideals does this hypocrite talking about? Does he mean the lies of ‘more money in your pocket’?

    And then: ‘…it remains wishful thinking that PF’s national character can be tainted by a few men and women of ill-intent…’. Is he for real? PF ‘character’ is being tainted by their poor record, the lies, the corruption, the failure to fulfill what they promised… not ‘few men and women of ill-intent’.

    The sad thing is Zambians will buy into this hypocrite’s rhetoric and he is positioning himself to the be the next Wynter Kabimba. Oh dear!

  5. UPND chaps always talk about tribalism.I can’t vote 4 them bcoz they are too evil.How do u win election when u’re insulting bembas?People should be united.Ha ha ha what a party!!Anyway,you’ll vote 4 yourself in Southern province with that hatred.

  6. This is a regrouping of the tribal cabal. Now the monkeys in the maize field have no one to watch out for. Everything will be stolen including the toilet paper in the ministers’ office. Wynter, for all his faults, and they are legion, was their only hindrance. Watch as Zambia is raped left, right and centre. Mobutu’s kleptomania pales in insignificance compared to what Chikwanda, GBM, Nsanda et al are capable of.

  7. @ Observer & @ Peter…….!!

    Easterners and Westerners were used by Sata to get some Votes frm those regions. en now they r being used. But SOON HELL WILL BREAK LOOSE. Attorney General is Bemba and the whole chain even Embassies r filledpositions r Bembas….! Lets be Christians people!

  8. If you are bemba, in this nation, don’t support PF. If you are Tonga, don’t support upnd. Why? Because these two, pig headed parties will accuse you of tribalism. Solution: LET US ALL LIFT UP & SUPPORT THE GENERAL!!! He is the only one with sound principles.

  9. People can be united for different reasons.

    (1) People can be united to do right.
    (2) People can be united to steal , kill or even commite crimes.

    Now which unity is GBM talking about? To join chikwanda and share contracts? We know that Kabimba was a hinderance to their plunder. They just found it hard to steal in his presence in the party. Let wait and see.

  10. My party the PF is clearly getting the tribal tag as well.The difference between the the Bemba tribalists and the Tonga tribalists is simple.Whilst Tonga openly and proudly will tell you of how tribal they are and how UPND should be their party,Bemba will not do that but ensure that you do not get close to the ‘crown’ which they must protect by whatever means.Why is it that only non Bemba speaking ministers have been fired from Cabinet.Masebo,Lubinda,Tembo and now Kabimba.In all fairness if we had a firm President,the sentiments that are attributed to Kambwili should have been condemned and Chikwanda should have been fired long time ago.But alas the two are Bembas and can be tolerated.
