Lusaka Mayor Mulenga Sata has announced his decision to withdraw his nomination for the PF presidency with immediate effect.

Mr Sata told a news briefing in Lusaka that he has decided to withdraw from the PF presidential race in order to concentrate on building his young political career.

He said, “Much has been said and written about the presidential candidature of the members of the Sata family since the untimely death of my father, His Excellency Mr Michael Chilufya Sata on October 28 2014. I am aware of that some of these utterances by Party members and well meaning citizens have been tantamount to giving the impression that the Sata family is greedy and wants to perpetuate a legacy which could be likened to an Imperial Monarchy.”

[pullquote]I have come to the rational conclusion that one or some of us have to take a logical and selfless step backwards in the best interest of the party.[/pullquote]
He added, ” I have read and listened to some of these utterances with pain, but also with attention. I have now had a serious opportunity to discuss all these matters with my mother’s, Mrs Margaret Sata and the First Lady Dr Christine Kaseba, my wife and other members of my family.”

Mr Sata has also dispelled the notion that the Sata family is at war with itself adding that those that entered the presidential race did so out of a genuine desire to serve the party and the country.

“Having carefully reflected on this matter for several days, I have come to the rational conclusion that one or some of us have to take a logical and selfless step backwards in the best interest of the party. A polarized and divided party does not augur well for our future.”

M?r Sata added, ” I am therefore announcing my unilateral decision to withdrawn my presidential candidate for the PF with immediate effect. In political terms I am still a young man and will therefore reserve my right to represent my presidential candidature in the future.”

He hoped that the general conference this weekend will elect a leader who will unite the party and religiously carry my Father’s? legacy and vision for the PF and Zambia forward.

“This is of vital importance to enable us to face the electorate on January 20th 2015 as a strong and united party. We shall need mature and level heads to prevail. This will be the best way of honoring and respecting my Father’s legacy and everything he stood for.”

  1. It is probably the only good thing he has done for the rest of life.

    He had little to no chance and he was getting to big for his own boots.

    Now get a constituency, become an MP, and take step by step. You don’t run before you walk.

    Thanks

    • “My mothers Mrs Margaret Sata and First Lady Dr Christine Kaseba”, anyone caught that? I smell a rat!
      Just out of curiosity, is Dr Kaseba still First Lady?

    • footsek….! Mushota, you are not a blogger, you just offer your useless rants, why sign yourself BB2014 (best blogger 2014?). Like LT editors, you are all dull.

    • The little ldiot has surely felt the heat generated by Lungu and co. With Sata gone, it’s time for the family to learn to live without leaching off the tax-payer. His party is busy making court appearances, squabbling and tearing each other apart when their opponents are bagging endorsements and huge crowds whenever they have gatherings. When are the PF campaigns starting?

    • Mushota you edit and pretend you are just a blogger….stop pretending like you don’t work for LT iwe suntwe. .malete yahau

    • @ Reality BB2014= (Best Blogger 2014)

      @The real Olivia Pope I agree conveniently he has not mentioned his mother’s maiden name

      @PFLeader I didn’t give myself the Best blogger title, it was bestowed by me by the MAJORITY and LT. Stop the hate darling.

      I am hearing Kambwili is withdrawing tomorrow, what a blow that is. I hope it is not true as most people here would attest.

      Thanks

    • GREAT DECISION SIRE AND EBWAUME UBU AND YOUR FATHER WOULD HAVE DONE THE SAME IF HE WERE AROUND! BUT DO NOT STOP THERE. TAKE YOUR STEP MOTHER KU MUSHI KWA CHITULIKA MUTWALE ICILILO TWAPAPATA.

      AS YOU HAVE POINTED OUT, SOME CRITICISMS CAN BE VERY PAINFUL AND VERY REWARDING AND BUILDING. RELFECT ON EACH AND EVERYONE OF THEM.

    • Good boy. Now for the rest of the PF presidential aspiring twats to also withdraw, that will be the bestest present Zambia could ever hope for, not the impending violence that will be inevitable at their gathering of morons (conference) and then after that, violence in general. Ati Edgar Lungu, the chap has cadres performing security duties ku ministry of justice and shallow chaps here are going ‘viva Lungu??’ Id!ocy of the highest order. FCUK THE PF!!!

    • @MUSHOTA??? BB2014?? . Well done and congratulations.

      Now on Mulenga. shows how finished Zambia is to have people like Mulenga to think they qualify to lead the country.

      A Councillor being President, with no experience?? wow Interesting. Just come out clean that you have realized that you stand no chance to win.

      Further more you are about to jump ship to HH. we know all you selfish Cadres.

      Who ever stands on PF, will lose because, you have shown Zambians your selfish weakness.

    • There are lunatics in PF, this man called Mulenga Sata today will tell us he was lobbying for a sympathy vote.that time is gone!

    • I can’t catchup with the political shenanigans in this poor central-southernly African country called Zambia. I would have to take this as a full time job being a Lusaka Times political analyst and quit my 9 to 5 job. There are headlines and breaking news items every second. How does Mushota do it? How does she remain productive to her employer as an employee of HRMS , Motherwell, Scotland office? I can’t cope with this rubbish. It’s like an open text book exam in political science and democracy the Zambian way!!

    • Mulenga Sata is not impeccable, because this is what he wants the downtrodden people to believe. Elementarily/primarily, he contested the PF’s decision of blocking his presidential candidature in the impending presidential bye-elections by taking the PF NEC to court. Subsequently, the court categorically ruled in his favour and, this is the very decision which he wants. Furthermore, Mulenga wants people to regard him as a blameless individual, which is bullsheet. He is simply preparing himself for exploitation of docile Zambians. He is a crook and a naive politician.

    • Jealous down, Mushota is best blogger and keeps this site alive, I don’t like PF, I didn’t like Sata and I am leaning towards HH every day. I usually disagree with Mushota and know that he/she is a consummate tribalist just like her hero. But never the less I like reading her blogs . Stupidity can be entertaining (and I say that with due respect ) . If she is really a girl and looks like her profile picture I would date her and help unite Zambia passionately.

      But I think it’s a man probably part of the Sata family forest

    • I hope Mulenga Sata reads LT. The fight at the convention will be between the Cartel’s candidate Kaseba and Lungu. However the Lungu team is at a disadvantage in that the list of delegates to the convention is controlled by the Cartel. My advice to team Lungu is that if they suspect the elections to be rigged, they should not accept the results but come back from Kabwe and regroup quickly. They can either join the Rb team or Haikande because thats where the real competition will be. Forget Nevers, he does not know what he wants. If Nevers thinks he would be accepted in UPND alone, then he has another think coming. Team Lungu going with ABZ will not do, because thats a one man party not known in Zambia. Its either RB or Hakainde (MMD or UPND), the parties of the future.

    • He doesn’t qualify. Has to wait until the constitution is changed. PF has to scrutinize candidates very carefully otherwise they’ll end up with no presidential candidate like what happened to UNIP in 1996. KK ended up lying that UNIP had boycotted the election when the reality was that KK didn’t qualify to contest.

    • At least he listened to advice and has avoided consequences of that risky move. Now he has to wait until the constitution is changed. He is young and educated.

      He will be a great President some day if the smart people of the Zambian Enterprise so wish to put him in office; for now he has some incubation to attend to.

      I know he would be a great President some day because I have watched him from the time he got at UNZA in the School of Engineering and he never called attention to himself despite the name recognition. He is also a very rational individual, a little different from his father in certain regards.

      I would not count you out completely come 2021 and 2026, stay focused and hone more skills, you’re the future of this country. Good luck on your next line of duty.

  2. This is when son and step mother have come to their senses and decided who should be on the race. What drama as the watchdog put it. The lungu camp will be humiliated by the kaseba camp who are working in the background.

    • It doesn’t look like they have agreed. From his statement, it is a unilateral decision, proved by the fact that he says he does not endorse anyone. If they had he should have stated that he withdrawn his candidature to give room to his mom. Let’s just relax and enjoy the movie as it rolls on!

  3. So tuchite shani na ma sikipa ne fi tengi fi ba Mule…..Anyway that’s a mature way of doing things as we push for EL to lead ( Eligible leader)..yes you know him

    • HH should follow suite otherwise he will be humiliated by great Kaseba ,knowing very well the influence of womens aspecially bana mayo mu market.

    • Assuming this was done some times ago PF wouldnt have gon so low, am sure they will pick up the pieces left and make something.

    • @Mazabuka fan

      …You will collapse..The Sata family has white washed Kaseba and shown the world she is heartless. Every LT blogger has seen that Kaseba is doomed! She knows it.

      SHE HAS BEEN PAINTED RED because of her conduct, and so for you to start betting for her win, that is your loss. We in the EL (Eligible Leaders) camp know perfectly well that our candidate will carry the day. Look our team has level headed intellectuals who have done enough research, even the CIA by now know the game is almost over.

      The guess work about HH and RB being factors does not move us an inch because our humility, is stubbornly firm we can’t shake!

      Register cannot be doctored coz we were alerted long ago and make hard quick fixes. When we are back from Mulungushi its fire fire. THE EDGARS!

    • A good move indeed, and BETTER MOVES await from his step mother, step “rogue” Kambwili, step “tummy” GBM, and step and distant noisy cousin Ka Sampa ma skirt.
      All has been said about Mulenga escorting his Kaseba mum to Chitulika village and take the funeral please. That is Zambian tradition, not to bath quickly and jump into the political arena like a mad woman u waikala paniza! (who is really mad).

      We want to see a united PF after the congress, so all PF members should after the congress join us in the EDGARS camp and strategize for victory in January!
      Forget about those comedians! Kambwili has caused “Dorika of the year at ZNBC” which has massively de-campaigned him. At UNZA he is referred to as “where is my neck” See the humility in our candidate.

      LOVE,

      THE…

  4. Oh, thank God, at long last someone has switched on his brains! I hope and pray the rest of the Sata and PF family can follow the honorable and selfless example set by Mulenga Sata. If they don’t they will pay the price for their selfishness!

    • @Jack; that’s exactly what Mulenga was hoping for, to be deemed sensible and intelligent by the electorate. I would rather Dr Kaseba withdrew than Mulenga so she could lay the ground work for 2016. Notice how he worded his statement. Dr Kaseba should not trust this guy at all!

  5. I was beginning to think… Celetse and the Ian Khama, Hafez and Bashar Al Assad, Kim Jong Un and Kim Jong Two(or whatever it means). It is not unusual to follow in your father’s footsteps. But it is unnatural to try and fit his shoes. It is bad enough you joined politics, fathers want to see they kids do something better than they did. Build a space ship, rubbervize, or whatever, just do something better so when you come back to family gatherings, you all have something inresting to add to the table. Wayamba Kukula Na Nzelu, instead you Kula na Manga…

  6. Well done Mulenga i salute you for your maturity, this a step in the right direction, I hope others will emulate you. You are truly a son of the late great man Michael Chilufya Sata.
    God bless you

  7. Hahahahaha. He had no real support from the PF senior delegates for the conference and he did not want to listen to stepmom Dr Kaseba. So without support the best thing was to withdraw. He can put whatever positive spin onto it. But I expected him to at least say he supports stepmom or someone else but again he wants to play it safe.

    • @Mr common sense
      I agree. there’s absolutely nothing selfless about this. The writing was on the wall (and blogs). No one in their right mind would vote for him at party, or national level.

      He is now merely hedging his bets. After all, there’s still a chance he’ll have access to the nation’s coffers through stepmum, so all is not lost.

      His mentioning of real mum and stepmum in the same sentence is meant to fool us and add to the fallacy of a united family – anything to ensure the stranglehold on power.

  8. Mulenga, you should learn to think before you leap. You should have made this statement or similar as soon as you brought your father’s coffin from London. That way some people could have respected you. As it is most people think you fear losing that is why you have withdrawn.

    • Oh do not worry Mr. Pio. This is PF we’re talking about and they are yet to disappoint when it comes to being disorganised and violent. Your conference will surely be something to behold. When I touch my crystal ball, I see butts being kicked and heads being split open with machetes. A typical day in the life of the PF.

  9. You and the entire Councillors should now rally behind Edgar Lungu as the rest are just a bunch of useful id.iots

  10. This is a gimmick to let the step mom thru, why is he withdrawing at the last minute? He knows that his family would not stand a chance since they would split those corrupted votes

  11. THE ONLY REASON HE HAS WITHDRAWN IS THAT HE CANNOT QUALIFY TO BE A PRESIDENT UNDER THE CURRENT CONSTITUTION!!! HAHAHAHAH HIS MOTHER IS NOT ZAMBIAN!!!
    AGAIN; WHICH DID HE CONSULT, ALREADY THERE IS KASEBA, BOB SICHINGA AND MILES SAMPA SO WHICH FAMILY IS THIS, IS IT THE WHOLE FAMILY OR NUCLEAR FAMILY.

    NO MONARCH NO WALKING BEFORE YOU CAN CRAW MY FRIEND.

    SATA NEVER DID ANYTHING THAT I SAW APART FROM PLANS WHICH WERE LEFT BY MWANAWASA, SO WHICH LEGACY ARE TALKING ABOUT???

  12. Good move besides it was a non starter from the very
    beginning. You can never change the place of your mothers birth. Leave it to the big boys.

  13. Realisation of greedy the family is being and decided to step back. But the greedy will still be simmering and he will be back when his political career has developed. He was to fast to move in. What question now is: is such a person’s empathy not questionable, hat in the ring straight after burying dad. Is suitable for public duty as a Mayor?

    • Arguably EW,you aren’t expecting him to relinquish his post surely?

      You besmirch him and still endorse Kaseba?

      You can argue none of the 9 aspirants are good enough to lead PF let alone be the President.

      I will be happy with Kaseba, or Sampa, because of their good standing in most Zambian’s eyes

      Thanks

      (LT Universally recognised BB 2014)

    • Am not by any stretch of imagination expecting or hoping that he will relinquish his Mayoral position, in any case he wouldn’t. I was merely making an observation about how this lack of judgement reflects on the calibre in the leadership out country. Most of these leaders behaving in such a erratic way like you Mushota. I think they will need advisers to help then make logical decisions. To be fair these guys can afford PR services.
      Talking about erratic behaviour. I was just thinking; Mushota, sometimes you make sense and other times you don’t at all. Is there chance that when you don’t make sense that is you blogging and when you make some sense someone else writes for you for example the so called Nick. There seems to be too many faces to ‘Mushota BB2014’.

  14. Good boy,now tell your Id10t of your step mum do the same thing.We are not interested in her as we don’t want to go through what Malawi went through under Joyce fimofimo.

  15. Well done Mulenga and now support your mother or HH.
    As the people of chingola we want your mother to take over of PF and if it fails then HH will.

    • It is the HH whirlwind that is forcing the family forest to start realizing that victory is not assured. They are beginning to see that they are not Sata and don’t have his charisma, there lies worked once but they might not work again, their tribalistic tendencies are now clear for all to see. Even the ousting of Lungu and replacing him with the family forest shows their tribal character. Rational well meaning northerners are taking a good look at HH, the Youth are looking at HH. With RB on the scene and if they oust Lungu, PF might not get Eastern Province. As they say in soccer, it’s all to playfor.

  16. Too little too late, the whole world has seen with their own eyes the greed, immaturity, senselessness & lack of visionary foresight that is in the people that have been in charge of the nation. Add corruption, lies, tribalism, NEPOTISM, INCOMPEENCE & shameless selfishness. GOD is exposing these characters, undressing them in pubic before their great big fall

  17. Dear Dr. Kaseba,

    I apologise for having misled & dragged you into all this madness. I thought Zambians were docile, but the truth on the ground is very different. Even if our earlier plan to buy and manipulate the votes appeared sensible then, I regret to inform you that you have no chance. All the genuine PF members want Mr. Edgar Lungu, he has a serious magnet to the people out there and our assessment is that there is no match for him.
    To honour our beloved departed President Sata and to see the fruits of his hard work, please follow our son’s example and “Let the people Govern”. Remember this message the late sent to Zambia when he was sick in London.
    Let’s bury the past and ensure the developmental programs the old man started be fulfilled by our bigger family, the PF,…

    • The first line in the late Sata’s will reads:

      ‘PF goes to my wife Kaseba’.

      Who are u pipo to change someone’s will?

      Nonsense!

  18. Please don’t comment just for the sake of it, some of your ‘UPND’ comments leaves much to be Desired, I don’t know if some of you sleep in a kraal. You should buy enough ropes. I don’t see u going anyway. HiHi is now like a chicken with a head, the guy is now just promising anythings even on issues that he doesn’t understand. Who are his advisors? Not cows of course.

    • Wow dude, is that your best hit? You need to hang out more with Kudos, Haleisa Halenya, 2020vision. In case your ka fag a$$ is new here, these distinguished gentlemen have already exhausted the cow and kraal stuff you ka shallow little twat. Come up with new sh!t that will sting us not that useless grade 12 nonsense, ok young boy? Go and play now and don’t forget to get your macs cool from the sink.

  19. Wow let Edgar Lungu be the next president and beer will be very cheap. Being drunk early in the morning in the office will not be an issue. Chawama tukalanwa fwe utujilijili.

  20. (HH) is reportedly vomiting this afternoon after hearing that PF is concluding with its internal democracy activities. PF will take the day come January 2015. Hairy Hippo (HH) will be chased back to the farm by the UPND followers! zwa!

  21. Good Sata mwaice!! U’ll be the next president in 2021.Let lungu rule then u’ll become president. U’ve the future indeed.Yo father is respected by Zambians and has left a good foundation for the PF.I’m 100% sure PF won’t lose if EL is adopted.In addition to that,u need to stand as a MP in 2016 and scoop Lusaka central then a minister and finaly a president.Be like your father.Look at Namimbia and Kenya?Their fathers were great and now they presidents.I c u a president in future if u play cards well.Vot EL not cartel.Cartelllllllllllllllllo will never help u.The interest of cartel is to remain in power and make money thru gvt contracts.Therefore they’ll label anyone is not supporting them a thief.Kikiki Mmmuembee is cleaver but a thief.Viva EL and abash cartel.

  22. Viva lungu.mulenga Sata boi,Please tell our first lady that Luapula yonse ni Lungu.If we want to win as PF let us not listern to pipo like masebo who have only pipo who can vote for HH.Luapula,eastern,lusaka,northern,muchinga,parts of western and Central and CB ni PF.Southern,chongwe and,part of central,parts of northwstern ni HH.Therefore don’t let mama be imposed by katelo!!!We want EL period.Pipo will campaign 4 u if EL is adopted.Ifyo tebufi tulelanda!!!

    • True already seven (7) Provinces have endorsed Mr. Lungu, and for all we know, the people want Edgar Lungu to take over were Mr. Sata left and these desperate cartel bafoons.
      Its development continuity tulefwaya ifyo fimbi ati shani nashi fyabufi. Infact when you read in context, you will see that UPND is trying to cheat people on borrowed promises of PF.
      But PF has and is delivering. Rome was not built in one day NO! Even an impatient man waits for his wife’s pregnancy to be ready before he sees his hard work. So is development, it takes time, dedication, commitment and bigger vision to build a prosperous nation. No one in opposition has give Zambians their vision, they just ranting left right centre.
      Viva Edgar Lungu

    • The 7 provinces that have endorsed Lungu are your PF secretariats te? Not the actual people who vote am sure, just the tuma PF provincial chairmen and 4 cadres assigned to each of these chairmen. Useless PF.

  23. That’s the way to go mr sata, at least you have saved yourself from humiliation. the Zambian people can now respect you and they will sure give you a vote when the time comes. all the best in your political endeavour

  24. Nishi ba Punish man

    HH has not promised anyone anything but just said what is supposed to be done. I believe is right. I hope you still have Brothers and sisters in Zambia who deserve a decent meal everyday because Maize as staple Food is not imported hence the Prices currently are exzorbitant. If you are the living in the European Union then you know how much a White man values Food that is why it is the cheapest commodity and it is affordable for everyone. It start from there. Dont just condemn everything the aspiring candidates are going to says there is sense

    • Dude, Punishman seems to be one of those hardcore PF chaps who when they try to think, they get stomach pains and headaches and that explains why they are so dull.

  25. Well done Mulenga Sata!please advise Dr.Kaseba,Bob Sichinga,Miles Sampa,Simuusa,GBM,Given Lubinda and Kambwili to pull out too so that people’s favourite Edgar Lungu can go through!PF is very very strong and loved by masses,Edgar Lungu will surely retain you the presidency!

    • Loved by what masses naimwe? Come to the copperbelt and start yapping about PF especially in Kitwe and see how your butt will be kicked.

  26. …thumbs up to the lawyer who correctly advised him to drop the legal route of challenging his eligibility to stand because of the parentage clause…not this crap of a reason he is feeding us with…
    ..from his statement, reading between the lines, I don’t think he is in support of his step mother either….in the same breath, he could have come out and thrown the weight on r Kaseba….there must be a ‘rift’ within the family for sure….

  27. I think they all the aspiring candidates should just step aside and let HH take over. …they are losing anyway
    Bye PF it was nice meeting you

    • Iwe ka Punishman hamba!!! Go and finish your grade six and then come back and rewrite that nonsense in real English, not ifi sushi ifyo that you are writing. How do you expect us to take you seriously when you can;t even spell ‘Now’ iwe chimbwi? And the sad thing is PF is full of illiterate chaps like you, even the cows that sleep in the Kraals you keep talking about can discuss issues way better than you. Akalufumo.

  28. Dear HH, I know u r so desperate to an extent that you are commenting u every issues even issue that u don’t understand I know believe why the late president called u understand five, zambia is bigger than a kraal. The chief in the bembaland have no influence what so ever, people there are learned, so try something else. I edge u to be truth and honest, even if loss u still be walking with your head up. Sorry I don’t seeing u winning. Go go go PF

    • Iwe ka Punishman hamba!!! Go and finish your grade six and then come back and rewrite that nonsense in real English, not ifi sushi ifyo that you are writing.

  29. I thought is is the Former First Lady Kaseba who has withdrawn from the race.Please Mum kindly withdraw and let your Son continue. Mukamfwilwa alingile alosha like what the wise Former First Lady Maureen Mwanawasa has done. People respect her than Kaseba.

  30. Mulenga has just discovered that Scot and the cartel have proof that the mother was born in Malawi. The mother must have submitted some documents in her long career in government that she was born in Malawi. Someone must have told him there is enough proof of your mother being a born outside Zambia. security has that info. E. Lungu may be the next to step down, followed by GBM, then Lubinda.

    • Bufi ubu iwe, Edgar Lungu is 1000% Zambian. We know you badala, you want to prop up your bululu the under five HH, sorry not HH not UPND, NO NO NO please!!!!. You guys need serious cleansing before you can be accepted as a party believe me.

  31. Ba Dr. Kaseba, ba GBM, imwe ba Sampa, and ba kambwili bakaamba, please much as you have the right to do anything on earth, please take a leaf from Mulenga Sata and rally behind this man Edgar Lungu, then you will be in power for sure. Remember we all did this to H.E. the late Sata, the rest is history.

    Today you have jobs because Zambians spoke and consolidated the support we gave to H.E. the late Sata. So if you are genuine PF members, hear what the people are saying. Look at Mr. Mulenga Sata, he is now a darling to all PF members, so do your part, let ba Edgar Lungu take up the mantle of leading our beloved party and country through massive development.

    Thanks

  32. His target now should be MP, then after that give it a try.Unlike HH who will if voted in will just be experimenting he is never been near any Government structure. Its good u’ve realised that its not yet time. I hope HH can follow suit.

  33. Everyone can can withdraw and it will make no difference because the PF died on the 28th October. Everyone in PF thinks he/she can continue Sata’s politics but alas! It will not work.

  34. This young man mulenga sata future president is intelligent.Now u’re talking mwaice.You’ll be supported in future for now let us support Edger Lungu.To tell the truth the man is liked by everyone.If some PF members were honest we would not have wasted resources for GC.If pf wants to remain in power please pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee adopt Edger Lungu.Bravo son cobra.we love u!

    • Well I expect we need to go to GC to prove Scott the terrible is The Don. We all need to bow down to him and be obedient little servants. Let’s entertain him.

  35. Where is Dora Siliya? Now that I will not stand on MMD ticket, Dora my daughter, let’s support Edgar Lungu and PF, after all they have proved to Zambians that there are better than we where in MMD. Let’s appreciate, these guys have started transforming Zambia into a better place and am sure EL will deliver the results too.

    Love RB

  36. Edgar Lungu, as President of Zambia, will look after kaseba and mulenga sata. He is a great guy. He has wisdom; unlike kambwili and kilometres sampa

  37. Masebo and atanga should be told that where they come from there is only opposition and they can’t determine the outcone of PF president.Masebo and antaga may run to UPND guys.Infact ka Antaga may regestor UPND cadres in order to make sure PF loses.Please PF supporters monitor atanga,chenda and masebo/cartel scottt.viva PF.we want to continue.Kaseba please withdraw even if u help yo katelo to do damage to our president.U’ll vote yoself if elections favor u madam.we are not ready for you madam kaseba.twapapata kaloshe

  38. A wise man knows to choose which battles to fight and wars to lose. The only good thing is he had better prepare well how he intends to justify his wealth gotten over three years…the dogs sales must have increased

  39. Donchiii Kubeba!!!bane umwela wacinja it seems it’s Edger alewina.Ba Miles Sampa awe namibwelamo.Umwaice lungu wa support.If he wins on saturday chikalila in Zambia.This guy can pull crowds.People who want lungu guys are millions.Iwe ine ni ba lungu besu mayo balaimwena.kikiki kambwili join lungu.Today,I’ve started campaigning for Lungu capwa.Viva Lungu Sir.Nafuti nafuti PF.UPND wapya baisa ba maite mufurila bawina icungulo.HH will be retired now full time!!

  40. Too little too late, the damage has already been done. He should have never entered the race in the first place. This is what they call in the Western political landscape as a ‘political misstep’. Over here his political career would have been shattered irreparably. It means his judgment is suspect and if he were a man of integrity, this would have haunted him forever. In politics correcting a wrong political move can amount to political su!cide – consistency is key, wrong or right.

    I heard he filed an injunction in the High Court… has he withdrawn that injunction? Truth be told, he withdrew because his lawyer told him he stands no chance on the parental clause. He better pray that the next guy changes this for him.

    • We sort of don’t want changes on the parental clause. We need to keep Zambian gov’t for pure breed! We must ensure, it protects the office of the president from those that have mixed culture and no longer are proper Zambian.

      We want the office of the president in the democratic republic of Zambia has nothing but the interest of indigenous populations.

  41. MULENGA,
    Dont think we Zambians we are FOOLS we know the mainy reason why have not gone any further its bcoz you were not allowed by Contitution of this land (ZAMBIA). Mind you you were in COURT over the same.
    YOUR MOTHER IS NOT ZAMBIAN BY BIRTH YOU ARE EVEN LUCK TO BE IN THAT OFFICE ITS BCOZ OF YO FATHER YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN MARKET(popi).

  42. Dear PF colleagues,

    Let’s avail our Presidential candidate Mr. Edgar Lungu now. The rumble has begun. “Oh Yes, We have Done It Again” Lets go Zambia, lets go PF.
    Allegiance to mother Zambia and development for all

    Edgar for 2014 and beyond

    • LETS GO PF! Let’s complete the term for our Dear Michael Chilufya Sata.

      Let’s give him a hands up as he stands before Christ. Our Moses! He may not have got there with us, but we can turn Zambia into our Moses dream.

      Come on PF band up, unite. Even you Guy Scott if you manage to bring this situation around, you will be an outstanding leader in our history annals.

      Yes,….. I know, I can be nice about you if you uphold what is just, righteous before the people. EDGAR LUNGUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!

  43. Out of topic I was just showing my boss Zambia on the map and it seems all if not most of towns either start with C, K, L and N

    Why aren’t we more innovative?
    British cant pronounce these

    Everything C,K,L or N why?

    Thanks

    • Thumbs Up above, only to negate all the positive with yet another s!lly out-of-place comment. You sure are the BB2014. How you contemplated entering the Big Brother house? I reckon you can win that one too and double up.

      How is Nick by the way? I never hear much about him these days. Is he OK or rather is everything OK?

    • Mav , you didnt answer my question above. Nicholas and i shall be away as we spend a few days quietly in England.

      Big brother? I do not watch reality shows. I like to watch and believe in REAL things only.

      I don’t watch movies, I would rather be at LT proving that I remain the best remnant in seeking Justice and the Truth, both working here and contributing to the site.

      A bit boring living in my world as you will attest.

      Positive comments make you popular on LT and you lie to yourself that you are intelligent and as some people say here, I talk more rubbish than sense.

      The thing is, I keep being mistaken time after time here by some people on here for someone who cares.

      Thanks

    • You really lead a miserable life. You spend time posting crap comments on this blog , and you call yourself best blogger. What kind of job do you do?

  44. Dear PF members/Zambians

    Lets avail our Presidential candidate Mr. Edgar Lungu now. Allegiance to mother Zambia and development for all. Zambia needs this man.

    “Oh Yes, We Have Done Again”

    Edgar for 2014…..

    • EL2015 all the way..there are not many genuine pro PF supporters on this site as me with an exception of my brother kudos, gen and other sympathisers like comrade patriot abroad so if i say EL is the choice of the people then mark my words its EL2015 this is the song we the real PF supporters are singing…

      ******VOTE EDGAR LUNGU FOR PF PRESIDENT******

      VIVA PF, ONE ZAMBIA FREE OF TRIBALISM, VIVA DEVELOPMENT, PABWATO!!!! VIVA EDGAR!!!!!!!!

  45. This is wise decision. The spirit of selflessness is in the Sata family. For the sake of unity Mulenga has pulled out of the PF presidential race. This is how it should be. The remaining contenders should also stand ready to congratulate the winner and rally behind him or her. There is no need to panic among PF faithfuls. Continuity is ours. Whoever will be elected at the convention fit well in the position which was occupied by our fallen hero Chilufya Sata. No need to panic whatsoever, there is no opposition to our stake. The so called opposition parties in Zambia are just fan clubs led by clowns. Like UPND led by one HH. the chap has no clue how to convince people. He is now relishing on Michael Sata’s tact and populist strides when he was in opposition. Sata’s personality was unique.

    • I totally agree my man. Let’s show this twit HH that we are serious people and we mean business by ensuring that Edgar Lungu wipes out UPND out of the political scene for ever.

      Edgar Lungu looks like statesman and his message of developing Zambia to a great nation in Africa shall resound with greatness. PF is greater than tuma cartels and oppositions period, so PF guys lets work very hard like the Chinese, vote for Lungu vote for development

  46. The presidency has been made so cheap, that every green horn thinks they can rule. It gets rough in the trenches that the “lily – livered” fall out of the race. Stature, credentials, gravitas all come up for accounting. who is next to bite the dust? I hope its the Kaseba! Change is in the air!!

  47. “I have come to the rational conclusion that one or some of us have to take a logical and selfless step backwards in the best interest of the party.”

    I applaud him for this, even though a little sinister, he has done well.

  48. Dr. Kaseba, we humbly ask you to go and attend to pediatrics where your services are needed more by our mothers. Is State money too good to let go? Reap what you sow, your profession is NOT politics but medicine. What makes you think you can run the affairs of Zambia when you have failed to serve the lives of our little babies?
    Leave politics to politicians mayo please, why are you so scared of honorable Edgar Lungu?
    Fighting Mr. Edgar Lungu is the worst disrespect for your late husband Mr. Sata. Why didn’t object Edgar’s appointments when the man you claimed you loved was still alive? Can we conclude that behind that “”smile” lies a big devil Zambians are not aware of?
    Remember this, family successions for national leadership does not work. This a sovereign nation and NOT a…

  49. Mulenga Sata even thinking of becoming Zambian President?! Just shows how his Father Michael Sata cheapened the Presidency.

  50. Well done, best news out of PF. I hope it is true Kambwili will do the same. The Party is beginning to gel and people using their brains is fully evident.

    I am so very proud of him.

    The way this is going turnout, Obama, Clinton. I think r
    The Sata’s are going to try for a Vice President role for Christine to Lungu. Bet they are negotiating right now!

  51. Good Chance 2016 assuming your continue your humility and working your way up Yes it was premature and timing could not allow You still have a chance at MP and surely people can vote for you in mpika or one Lusaka For madam Kaseba who has to take the message of thanks to the provinces and towns after she recovers ,has even a better chance combined with her medical operations /touch in the towns and provinces towards 2016 She has surely enough time towards to position and consolidate her standing.She behaved well towards all people without any discrimation especially in Choma where many repeate operations where carried out She can be the first 2016 Presdo woman if carefully see

  52. Between mother and son, who knew the son will be the first to get some sense into his inflated head?

    Anyway, I hope he’s not planning to take any clues from Uhuru Kenyatta’s playbook and bring back his stúpid áss a few years down the road. Ok, I’ll take that back. That’s too much to ask. What I should say is, I hope the Zambian people will be smart enough not to entertain his stúpid áss should he decide to run again.

  53. 1 down, many more to go. know your limits. Sata gave the impression that anyone can be president in Zambia. Yes wait for the new constitution and by then you won’t be young anymore.

  54. Dat Mushota BI-TCH was a sex worker b4, Dont u u guys see even de way she pokes bloggers i can prove to you send pics if need so pls dont waste your time with her or pay attention whatever she write……mayb she is still in dat business who knows.
