Patriotic Front President Edgar Lungu has said that opposition leaders are lying to the people of Zambia by promising wholesome changes when elected.

He said that the opposition leaders should not pretend that they will bring new things on the table when they can only continue were President Sata left from.

Mr Lungu added that there is nothing new that the opposition will bring to the table because everything is on course under the PF government.

He stated that nothing can be done in the remaining period before 2016 to change what the PF has been doing.

Mr Lungu said that the opposition should allow the PF to finish what President Sata has left behind.

Mr Lungu also said that there will be very little change in the initial period of his presidency if elected because the ruling party already has a running development programme for the country.

Mr Lungu cited the ongoing construction projects such as roads, schools and hospitals as some of the projects the Patriotic Front government is already implementing.

Mr Lungu said that it will be naïve and folly for him to imagine that he will implement his vision in the remaining period before 2016.

Mr Lungu said that Patriotic Front will revise its manifesto beyond 2016 to accommodate his vision and personality.

Mr Lungu also dispelled assertions that Late President Micheal Sata anointed someone to take over from him, saying that President Sata had opened it up to everyone to work hard and show their capabilities.

And Mr Lungu has reiterated his call to the other faction in the Patriotic Front to come back to the fold.

The Justice Minister dismissed suggestions that his relationship with Acting President Dr. Guy Scott had crumbled down, Lungu saying he occasionally communicates with Scott on matters of a national nature. He also indicated he was close to GBM except that they had differences based on political preferences.

He invited the Kasama Member of Parliament to join him on the campaign trail and ensure the PF bounces back in the coming elections.

Mr Lungu further dismissed stories that have been speculating about his health saying he was very fit and that the malicious stories were the work of political detractors.

Mr Lungu was speaking on Radio Phoenix’s Let the People Talk this morning.

Meanwhile, Central Province Patriotic Front(PF) members have said that they have resolved to support the candidature of Defence and Justice Minister Edgar Lungu in the upcoming presidential elections because he is the only leader who has shown that he is able to unite and develop the country.

The PF members who marched in the Town Center in Kabwe today in support of Mr Lungu said the late president Michael Sata saw humility and leadership qualities hence his decision to overload him with such huge responsibilities every time he went out of the country.

Speaking after a solidarity March PF Provincial Secretary Monica Mwale said the entire Provincial leadership was in support of Mr Lungu and that it was ready to start campaigning for him ahead of the elections and urged others to join.

Ms Mwale who was flanked by other PF Members said it was only fair that Mr Lungu is given the support if the projects which were started by the late President and its Cabinet were to be completed.

She has called for unity saying the PF party will only win the elections if it unites and works as a team.

“We the leadership of PF in the Province have decided to support Mr Lungu’s candidature because he has shown to us that he is capable of moving the country and the party forward, it would only be fair to give him the support by all genuine PF members whose interest is not kill the party but see it succeed despite the misunderstandings”, Ms Mwale said.

Ms Mwale added that the PF leadership in the Province has decided to reconcile following the division which had rocked the members.The PF members who were joined by sympathisers sang songs of praise to Mr Lungu .

    • You don’t even live in Zambia. Listen to the people. You listen to your warped views all the time babes!
      Have you ever listen to Eddie speak? Have you ever listened to Miles speak! You will make judgement is seconds as to whose wisdom you ought to ride on!

    • I am tired of this reference to Sata as if he owned Zambia or he was a king! We have tried PF and all we have experienced is incompetent leadership. Time has come to restore sanity to the governing of the country’s resources. The country is in a mess and needs a clean up. Time for change!

    • If Lungu won, Brian Hapunda would become the George Chella of Sata the ailing Dictator. Lungu would also continue to be an ailing Dictator and he will also die in office after 2016. The PF has been a party of Thugs with no democratic principles. They run the police, they run ZNBC and they also run the entire media. Nsanda and Sata were stealing tax payers money by runing RDA from State house without a board for almost two years. Kabimba and Sata were stealing oil man through the company llunda CHalo. Sata’s government was the most tribal in the history of Zambia. How can we continue with that. How??

    • Its you ba PF who ve failed us.

      You r a forgoten party. Edgar u CANT BE A PRESIDENT OF ZAMBIA JUST continue being a “Walking stick of Nkandu Luo”.

    • That Embassy park will loose value mwe. It started ok and became a tourism attraction center.
      But some people we want to recruit to be part of that team is simply too low. I think KK will revise his will and rest with his parents in Lubwa mission.

    • Mushota

      Shani boyi

      Bika bola panshi. ..we haven’t started playing yet…

      The game starts tomorrow in Kitwe

      The King himself has said it
      HH promises promises and promises

      Breaking news:
      HH promises to vote for Edgar

      I did put a spotlight on HH over promising and now the Hon Edgar has picked that up…he goes through LT comments too.

      2015 vote PF ( Edgar )

      I thank you

    • Lungu has a plan and that plan is to continue Sata’s legacy.

      What is Sata’s legacy? Is Sata ‘s legacy a good one ?

      Here is Sata’s legacy;

      Fake wage increase followed by wage freeze. Net wage increase = 0
      Abuse of POA.
      PF murders with impunity.
      Police brutality with impunity.
      Stealing Farmers’ maize.
      Failing to fund learning and health care institutions adequately.
      Failing to enact the people led constitution.
      Failing to pay Road contractors.
      Firing nurses after deceiving them with wage increase.
      Ignoring Ruth Mbandu’s murder.
      Violence both intra and inter party.
      High cost of living
      High energy bills
      No bursaries for all students.
      No free electricity and water army and police.
      Break down of rule of law.
      Constitutional breaches.
      No freedoms…

    • BREAKING NEWS

      I just put Lungu on his defence on radio phoenix this after noon.He has admitted to stealing money from a client a case for which his law practising licence was with drawn.

      Its true that we have glitches here and there in life. But its the gravity of those glitches that matter.

      Stealing and being fired from work because of abuse of alcohol should definitely not be among those glitches for a Presidential candidate.

      Please when you counter my comment don’t just make sweeping statements out of emotions. But try to think it through and provide tangible evidence to back your assertions. Other wise people will take you for a f00l.

    • Mushota, we are not dull as you may imagine! This posting is just to provoke debate when you KNOW that we know that you know Edgar Lungu has already won the elections. Its not “IF” its “WHEN” and we all know 20th January 2015 is just a confirmation day.

      Bye

    • what should happen is that you bemba’s keep northern province (BEMBA REPUBLIC) and rest remains Zambia because we are sick and tried of your tribal Bullshit!

    • Mushota, you practice debate of cynism. But we aren’t dull as you may wish. By the way, what are you still doing in a country governed by PF? We are more than happy to see you a refugee in Iceland.

      Bye

    • This Vodka Lungu cannot be trusted and the reason is very simple “Birds of the same feather flock together”.
      This Party hijacker is surrounded by chaps of questionable characters.

      Brian Hapunda – the guy relied on umwembeshi (leakage) at UNZA. He used to go with books in exam room and that’s how he was expelled and he will never attend or enroll in any course at UNZA. In short he is an academic LAZO.

      Willie Nsanda – this man was born a criminal. For those who have studied criminology, you can agree with me that this man fits well in the scientific description of criminals – check characteristics of criminals according to LOMBROSO.

      Nkandu Luo – She looks like a witchdoctor. Sata didn’t trust this woman hence he decided to give her a useless ministry.

    • Lungu sounds like the caliber Zambians go for as President.

      I couldn`t believe my ears when I was listening to him. The guy is crap, crap, crap. He really sounds like the type that Zambians go for.

    • Thats what we call presidentila material,
      No one would have united the PF party,
      Guy scot did not really know which stratagy to use,
      but his Excellence has brought everyone back, he does not want to lie by saying he will change this and that,
      but humbly says he will continue where the country is,, In his heart, u find a humble man,
      in his brain you find un interllectual man, on his mouth, you find truth only,
      tell me if ther will be any one more than HIM??

    • Nostradamus MDB2014 (Most Demented Blogger)
      What is this about you and death. You are attracted to language that is grave and deathly. You must have a very dark past. At you young age all you wish is for people to die. You are cursed young man. You are not human, but animal. No wonder you dirty mouth and shallow sick mind reeks with maggot insults.

    • Just renounce it now cos its a foregone conclusion. Wikale nokwine. We don’t need you here if your citizenship is so fluid. fuseke

    • @Reality, you’re so right – Edgar should tell us why HIM and no other. Why did he stand if the only task left for the new President is just to continue and finish what Sata had started (which anyone can do)?

    • Will never forgive HH for killing a lot of miners during the privatisation.Even the house he lives in -in kabulonga is a Ramcoz house.Many miners died waiting for their pension when he channeled all the money to his accounts.

    • Talking now is worsting time please let go for voting we are tired of this small dictator. All the wage freeze, late agriculture input delivery, late FRA payments, No constitution, high fuel and mealie meal prices and you hope Zambians have not seen this. Are we going to eat roads becoz the wages you have packed in the fridge? Kaponyas are cheating you that you have support thats why you want to go to the copperbelt. Face the reality HH is winning.

    • Mr. NO VISION E. LUNGU can not tackle the over 65% abject poverty with blind leadership. AFRICA is poor because we accept inept leadership without plans to end the shameful poverty situation in a country like Zambia with many natural resources and peace.

    • good riddance. but wait a minute but I thought you were British by marriage to nicky , sniky or what ever his name is.

  1. EL can you act.We are tired of talking Party reconciliation.Small body big engine.we are waiting for you to act immediately like what these guys did to you.

  2. Give the guy a chance maybe he can make a good president and before anyone says anything please ask yourself if you are perfect

    • @The champ

      Your argument is useless. So according to you even seven spirits should be allowed to run for presidency because no one is perfect . Really?

      Please try to slap your face a couple of times before you spew such drivel here as Mushota would put it.

    • @Camp, listen to Wanzelu.
      And talking of chance, we gave that Lungu a chance to run PF as secretary general but he failed to prepare the party. How can he reorganize the government? Now he says the PF government will continue doing the same nonsense.
      Look at how many Secretary of PF in last 2 months:
      – Kabimba
      – Edgar Lunu
      – Davies Mwila
      – That other Chilema
      – Atanga
      – Kasolo
      – another Davies

    • Edgar Lungu has nothing to offer Zambia except to continue with what Sata was doing: Tribalism, nepotism, regionalism and corruption. The only change will be that it will be the easterners benefiting. EL is therefore the wrong person to be president of Zambia. I have told my relatives and friends to vote for HH because he has promised to embrace everyone in Zambia irrespective of their tribe or their region. Zambians should give HH a chance to prove him wrong.

  3. AS WE HAVE SAID AND WERE WAITING FOR THIS:

    “EDGAR LUNGU HAS NO PLANS FOR ZAMBIA AND IS MERELY JUST VIAING FOR PRESIDENCY”

    WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO OFFER?

    ANY PRESIDENT, EVEN OPOSITION, CAN CONTINUE SATA’S WORKS, BUT WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO OFFER AND WHY YOU?

    • Sata was always sleeping at State house, so Vodka Lungu will continue sleeping and drinking. Is this the legacy he wants to continue? and who tells him this country was owned by Sata anyway?

    • At least comment and avoid insults or disparaging or derogatory remarks. Talk as wise people, if you got arguments, may those arguments be sound and issue based, not beer, healthy of an individual who is not even sick, how tall or how he walks or his spouse, or why he carries a stick, such arguments have nothing to do with national development and are boring and empty. talk real issues.

      Otherwise u will end up favoring someone, all because he combs his hair, all chews better than the other one, or because his wife is good-looking as if she were yours, or because he lies better than the other. Anyway, everything is all vanity and a striving after the wind. They are all but humans and can not even save their own lives later on anybody’s life.

  4. PF is chief of lies. PF committed purjury by lying in Parliament about many things including the health and where abouts of the late president. We still need someone to held accountable for this.

  5. Mushota you are very silly and apparently ur brains suffers constipation, if we had a third of u in this country…men of ur caliber will go 100 years backwards.

      I thank you

  6. “Mr Lungu said that Patriotic Front will revise its manifesto beyond 2016 to accommodate his vision and personality.”

    Um… that’s gotta be the scariest thing I’ve heard all day.

    Campaign HH – is wrapping up the United tour with a swelling crowd in Mumbwa. For those wishing to go Central to catch him – he is heading for Kabwe to wrap things up. Worry not Kabwe – this WON’T be like last weekend!

    Campaign ED – is promising a ‘swell’ of his own in Kitwe, Copperbelt (formerly Kitwe, Western Province for history buffs) with erstwhile supporter Katondo Boys promising a fun time in Freedom Park (isn’t that a mall these days?) Look for the tale tale signs of marching feet and terrified motorists. Chuckle.

  7. Yes Mr. President, We are now happy and we will vote for you. Sampa just unit and rally behind EL. After all its PF. If you continue bring confusion than as orderly people of Zambia we shall bring HH so that PF dies.

  8. LOL – no “wholesome” changes [sic].

    So, I guess we shouldn’t expect, what…. milk and cookies from the opposition and instead just take beer and whiskey with Edgar?

    • What an anti-climax. In short really he is saying he has no plan of his own. Not even a plan to have a plan. So why is he fighting so hard to be president?

  9. No amount of lies can convince us from your Manyozo Forwarding Party. All you need to do the whole lot of you PF is to go on a 90 day
    retreat

    • EL wants to ride on MCS’s popularity and fake capability that he understands what Sata had for vision. EL does not understand that some wholesome changes can be achieved within available time such as: medicines procured, dismissed nurses re-engaged, retirement age reversed, outstanding farmers and retirees benefits paid, roadmap and adoption of new constitution, the Chitimukulu recognized and installed, Auditor General audits, unjustified borrowing cancelled, fuel pump prices and staple food costs reduced, suspected embezzlers visited by law enforcement agencies, police IG and many others retired and Dr Malama recalled, so on and so forth especially those with immediate impact!

  10. Mushota, EL cannot win an election beyond hired thugs in PF. He is most welcome to the political terrain but please don’t worry yourself thinking he is material. He did not even win Chawama constituency but Sata did. Just watch all the UPND deputy ministers who endorsed him will not deliver any vote to him because their areas are UPND and people will overwhelmingly vote HH to embarrass all those hanging on injunctions.

    • Thank you for your insight.

      The man does not instil any joy in me, he would make a horrible president and the country will suffer just like I predict it might under HH as well

      Thanks
      BB2014

    • @ Kamwale and Mushota – You’re welcome to renounce your Zambian citizenship. The two of you should take long walks like in, ‘I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.’

  11. Good message Mr. President. A message of unifying and bringing people together is what we want to hear. Invite all PF to come back and support the party’s course and mentor Mile Sampa in the best way you can as he is on a learning curve. Please forgive Guy Scott as his recent actions are out of his character – he is a true Zambian but maybe leadership was out of his depth. I would like you to consider Inonge Winner as your vice president. She has shown character, vision, composure and tenacity.

  13. You are a “weakling ba Edgar” who doesnt know tht. You are a “Walking stick” of Nkandu Luo.

    To HELL WITH PF.

    Its HH chabbe…..!!

    • A weakling my foot! In the end he proved that he had a better strategy than Guy Scott who some of you have been supporting because of his skin colour. EL says he will continue with MCS plans, good strategy for how do you expect EL to come up with another plan over the remaining period. Even if HH was to win he will have to see through development projects which were started by MCS. Does HH have the numbers in parliament in any case?

    • @Katondo boys.
      CANT YOU SEE THAT YOU ARE ALONE HERE ?
      SPREADING THE SAME HOLLOW MESSAGE EXPECTING THE SAME RESULT.
      LUNGU HIMSELF DOESN’T KNOW WHY HE SHOULD BE PRESIDENT APART FROM SATA’S VISION NOT HIS?

    • @Kwa George, HH equally doesn’t know why he should because president hence the lies he is bombarding the Zambians with. How can one person say he will chase the street vendors and the same person again come and say he won’t chase them? That means the guy does not mean well for Zambia. He just wants votes and who knows what the guy will do when he gets the votes he so eagerly wants that he sacrifices the little integrity he had 3 years ago?

  17. If there truly are family tree connections between EL and Mulenga Sata’s mother then this explains the real reason of the trust MCS had in EL. It then unfolds why Mulenga would quickly pull out and endorse EL than step-mom as in blood is thicker and goes on to that Zambians are being handed to the Sata family rule. See the connection here: Christine Kaseba, Bob Sichinga, Edgar Lungu, Mulenga Sata, Miles Sampa representing 50% of the original contestants for PF leadership being a complex of one family ties. Here comes a new era family succession

  18. Zambians are amazing,someone is giving you a dose of reality,and you call him all sorts of names.Koma balemibepa fye ati i will make Zambia a heaven on earth.All those things HH is Promising cannot be dome in two years,its absolutely impossible,even Obama who heads the wealthiest nation in the world could not do it.

    • Mei Mutungu ndugu yangu! At one point I really held you in high esteem but you have just lost the little respect I had for you. How in this time and age demonize someone based on religion. You are as bd as those demonizing HH for being Tonga. And do you have facts to show that Edgar Lungu is Muslim? This is the last I’m ever going to read your comments. I’ve just thrown you in the bin where I threw Wanzelu many way back. Good luck

    • @ Andulu

      There are good Muslims and bad ones. Check the headlines around the world and you will know what I am talking about. A bad Muslim has no room for reason. To them killing is an honor.

      Check what has become of PF lately. Lungu is behind it all. He has no room for reason. Check the skirmishes within the PF before, during and after the Convention. Check the way he was elected PF president. Check the consent judgment he obtained fraudulently from a Lusaka High Court. Doesn’t that tell you something about the man?

      Lungu is a bad Muslim. There is all the room in Zambia for good Muslims. I have a lot of Muslim friends myself. But there is no room in Zambia for even one bad Muslim. We can’t afford to have a violent man like Lungu.

    • Are you that dull and stupid? You claim EL is alcoholic but Moslem at the same time. Don’t you, ***** know that in Islam drinking alcohol is not permitted? But then again you are so dull, you did not even know that.

  19. MS is one big money spender on ladies that u cant put incharge of the country that hs ladies. el is the man for the moment

    • yes how can you choose a president whose law practicing licence was revolked only to be given when he held the highiest office because he intimidated few people?

  20. Numbers don’t lie:

    Northern/Muchinga (600,000+ voters) EL (70%) HH (10%)
    Luapula (400,000+ voters) EL (90%) HH (5%)
    CB (700,000+ voters) EL (65%) HH (25%)
    Lusaka (700,000+) EL (55%) HH (35%)
    Eastern (600,000+) EL (55%) – Rupiah (30%)

    Southern (600,000+) HH (85%) EL (10%)
    Western (380,000+) HH (65%) EL (25%)
    Northwestern (350,000+) HH (70%) EL (20%)
    Central (500,000+) HH (55%) EL (35%)

    The % balance will be shared by others
    Total votes EL 2.45 Million HH 1.9 Million
    So EL wins despite HH making in roads in Lusaka, CB Central North West and Western at the expense of MMD. However this is compensated by Eastern province which will give much more votes to their son this time.

  21. Lungu is right….all the country’s developmental programmes initiated from Chiluba’s MMD to Ruphia Banda is underway under the PF government. Of course the challenge maybe the pause at which progress is achieved, but again one should recognise the fact that we operate in a globe village such there could be other external compelling influencing factors beyond our abilities as a people.
    No that note no one can promise overall change but again promise continuation manner in a more equity manner.

  22. People lets vote for PF so that the following continues:
    wage and employment freeze
    high living cost
    non payments of farmers
    high borrowing
    no medicines in hospitals
    firing of nurses
    non payments of meal allowances for students
    no bursaries for students
    unrecognition of chitimukulu
    we appreciate the massive infrastructures they are doing but its 2 out everything

  23. UsELESS MP STANDING ON PF TICKET. IF MICHAEL SATA AKA MAN OF ACTION SAID MY MPS ARE USELESS IT MEANS ALL OF YOU SUPPORTING EDGAR LUNGU AKA BEER MAN ARE USELESS. USELESS CANDIDATE SUPPORTED BY USELESS SUPPORTERS. SO WHICH SIDE ARE YOU? A USELESS CADRE?

    • Keep calling us names and we will show you that we heard all your tuma insults. You need our votes and you keep calling us names will see if your HH will match Lungu.

  24. I hope EL does not make that witch Nkandu Luo as Vice President if he wins. That woman is hated KuLubemba for wanting to impose a Bisa as Chitimukulu. She is also hated by her own Bisa tribe for changing the Chibesakunda succession from matrilineal to patrilineal so that her brother can take over. Nkandu Luo is also arrogant.

  25. Thanks Mr Lungu, keep dreaming. Zambians are resolved and have moved on. We are with UPND now. We feel the pinch of your harsh policies. Nobody votes for people who come to torture them economically.

  26. EL is a Boko Haram recruit – their very latest. These guys are daring! See how much confusion he has brought in PF in such a short time… Give him a year, the whole of Zambia will be on fire.

  27. PF IS DEAD. YOUR PROPAGANDA IS NO GONER WORK.
    – NO VOTES FROM FARMERS
    -NO VOTES FROM GOVERNMENT WORKERS
    -YOUTHS NEED JOBS SO NO JOBS
    -FIRED NURSES
    -NO VOTES IN WESTERN PROVINCE
    -NO VOTES IN NORTTH W

    STATICS FROM WAQ SHOWS HH WINNING NEXT BY ELECTIONS BY 10 PERSCENT BEATING HIS CLOSEST RIVAL EDGAR LUNGU

  28. This is serious infiltration by Boko Haram. The EL cartel has no recognition for rules and order. It’s not like anything we have been accustomed to see in our peaceful country since 1964. The EL cartel has swung the pendulum back to the dark ages.

  29. The PF has been driving in reverse gear since Edgar Lungu hijacked the party. The guy is cut out for violence. He knows no other language.

  30. Numbers dont lie:
    The other message is that MPs and councillors are the people that campagin for the presidents in areas beyond the main towns where HH is supposed to be flying around check this

    PF has 99 MPs on its side (Broken down as 9 MMD, 3 UPND, 7 nominated and 80 elected)

    MMD has 20 MPs on its side (as 9 already with PF and 8 endorsed UPND)

    UPND has 38 MPs on its side (as 8 from MMD and 1 independent endorsed HH. However, 3 UPND MPs already supported EL)

    others still
    1 FDD
    1 ADD
    1 independent

    As for the numbers of councillors kindly note that UPND has no councillor in Northern, Luapula, Eastern or Muchinga

    HH has hard work in the rural areas

  31. Some comments on this this site are really shocking, save for zamcab! Instead of debating intelligently, everyone is busy attacking everyone! Rubbish!

    • too many mind games….not safe……just saying….Our justice system may be compromised??? Whats next?? divert from that error??Its needs to be corrected?? Not rocket science, just simple ABC just saying….

  32. Nchito: debate not trying to say things that dont make sense. How many nurses were fired? what is the salary of civil servants now compared to when MMD was in power, people in the villages are seeing roads and schools for the first time since independence: smell the coffee please.

  33. Lungu sounds like the caliber Zambians go for as President.

    I couldn`t believe my ears when I was listening to him. The guy is crap, crap, crap. He really sounds like the type that Zambians go for.

  34. VIVA LUNGU, VIVA ZAMBIA. LUNGU IS THE KAGAME OF ZAMBIA. VERY FOCUSED AND STEADY WITH HIS SLENDER BODY BUT BIG ENGINE(HEART) THAT SHOCK ABSORBES PRESSURE. GO ON ,GO ON THE MAN ,REAL MAN. ZAMBIA BEHIND YOU.

  35. Lungu makes it quite simple, we continue were sata left off:

    1: wage n employment freez
    2: little or no medication our hospitals
    3: carry on with the high cost of living
    4: ridiculous borrowing of funds.

    The list is endless, then this dumb head shud come n tell us theres nothn to change, wt a disapointment of polo tea cian…….(°_°)

  36. Mushota what happened to the old man Nicky? You seem to have a thing for Sampa. It seems the guy makes you wet under when you think of him. By the way he is black and lives in Africa. Remember what you used to write about African men?

  37. What Edgar Lungu, has initiated, is integrity in Office .Clean politics and a Leader who rules by mandate agreed with his cabinet and approved by the people. What we have already begun to enjoy is having a balanced man at the helm. Edgar Lungu has demonstrated his ability of Calmness under Pressure. What is clear is he needs to be a good butcher to remove disruptive factions with their own agendas. Edgar Lungu is the best thing for PF,he will raise PF’s image with his Statesman image. Gravitas all the way.

    • Edgar Lungu is for honest politics. His statement on the 2 year period is honest. The people of Zambia can trust him. His statement about false opposition party campaign promises is accurately observed. Edgar demonstrated his ability to work with stakeholders on the draft constitution document which he released in less than 90 fabled days. He is a good butcher, he removed negative people and groups. Observations on how Scott et al treated him have led to highlighting failures in Party Constitutions leading to internal power fights spilling out to endanger Zambia. This insight God gave through Edgar now means ALL parties must remove or clarify clauses in their constitutions. Judicial rulings in last days must lead to better conduct in future. We have Edgar Lungu to thank.

  38. So Bwana Eagle Chagw Lager (aka Edgar Lungu) who tells you continuing on what sata and your government was doing is the only option that Zambians must have. We are ambitious people and don’t want to settle for a vision of a dead man. Give us you vision don’t hide in Sata.

  39. Any one who wants to rule Zambia next month should pledge to CONTINUE the infrastructure project Sata started as they made him a darling of many rural people : across the tribal bridge. The Bottom road in Tonga land is being done. The Kalabo road in Lozi land is being done. etc. People done need change for the unknown when they can see something at window level – and you are talking about changing course!! Even HH needs to equivocally come out and support / pledge to complete the projects initiated in Muchinga by Sata if he wants to rule this country. We don’t need chaps who are bent on derailing gvt programmes due to envy. Choma is a beneficiary and nothing wrong with it. Why should it be wrong in Chinsali??? In fact like it or not Zambia owes Chinsali its independence. Fact!!!

    • It makes you wonder how they fail to see this basic fact! How do you promise to make peoples lives better by stopping development plans currently in play to start new unbudgeted fake promises. Analsing promises by HH, it is clear he promised ‘road traders’ and illegal marketers to stay where they were! Exactly! He does not intend to change anything either!

  40. Mushota is a damn tribalist. Who cares if she renounces her citizenship. What has she ever done for the motherland.

  41. @PETER BE OBJECTIVE DONT JUST ARGUE FOR THE SAKE OF IT. EDGAR LUNGU IS NOT MICHAEL SATA. DONT THINK EL WILL GET THE SAME RESULT THAT SATA GOT. SATA WAS A MAN OF THE PEOPLE. LAST TIME I VOTED FOR SATA BECAUSE I SAW THAT HE HAD A VISION NOT THIS EDGAR LUNGU WHO CANT EVEN CONVINCE HIS OWN PARTY MEMBERS TO RALLY BEHIND HIM. IT WOULD ACTUALLY BE FOOLISH FOR MILES SAMPA TO AGREE TO BACK EL. JUST LOOK AT WHAT SAMPA HAS DONE IN MATERO IN MATERO AND COMPARE IT WITH WHAT EL LUNGU HAS DONE IN HIS CONSTITUENCY? MILES SAMPA IS FAR MUCH BETTER THAN EL. THEREFORE I AM NOT SURPRISED THAT AN ***** LIKE YOU CAN NOT THINK LOGICALLY ON SUCH IMPORTANT NATIONAL ISSUES. BE OBJECTIVE IF YOU HAVE TO BE ON THE SAME LEVEL WITH ME.

  42. Bloggers. …

    I thank you

    • I know some feel PF are slowly losing their senses but how could you leave “taste” from your list? We’ll need it for the beer!!!

      Just promise us no ‘BREAKING’ news from Kitwe, KB. That’s my humble plea. Chuckle.

    • Is that all you have? Is there no original material? Just repeating the same false thing does not make it true.

  43. PERSON I CAN JOIN YOU, FOR WHAT REALLY? THE MAN HAS NOTHING TO OFFER. WHAT DEVELOPMENT CAN THIS DRUNKARD BRING? CONTINUE DREAMING BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU COME 21st DECEMBER YOU WILL WORK UP TO A RUDE SHOCK, THAT IS AN ASSUARANCE

  44. Keep EL at bay. How many times are Zambians going to be crossing the Zambia/Malawi border to look for a president? Why can’t we be ashamed of ourselves? This time around, we need a true Zambian for president. We saw what a true native Zambian president could do for his country during the presidency of the late president Levy Mwanawasa. We don’t need another Malawian import and worse still a Muslim and a drunkard.

    • Mei Matungu

      There is nothing wrong being a Muslim…i mentioned this in my earlier comments that Zambia belongs to ALL ZAMBIANS…how do you think the Zambian Muslim community will react after reading through your comments…YOU ARE JUST MAKING IT EVEN HARDER FOR HH TO WIN IF THIS IS THE MESSAGE YOU ARE GIVING VOTERS…
      AND I DONT THINK THE HON HAKAINDE HICHELEMA,,OUR ZAMBIAN BROTHER WILL BE HAPPY WITH YOUR COMMENNTS.

      PF IS A PARTY FOR ALL ZAMBIANS EVEN MALAWIANS OR SOUTH AFRICANS IF THEY CHOOSE TO BECOME ZAMBIANS,,THEY ARE WELCOME IN PF,,,MUSLIMS,,,JEWS,,,CHRISTIANS,,,HINDU,,,,

      HH Promises to vote for Edgar

      2015 vote PF(Edgar)

      I thank you

    • And whose HH’s father.? What if we say its some guy from Rwanda or Burundi.? No one knows his father so the devil you know principle here is better.

    • I thought you were an avid supporter of Scott? In fact so are a lot of people on this blog. You prefer a white to your own calling him Malawian?

    • @ Katondo boys:

      Are you serious? Check any country with significant Moslem presence and you are likely to see a trail of blood. Examples are Kenya, Somalia, Egypt, Libya, Nigeria, to name but a few. Islam encourages the killing of infidels.

      Don’t get me wrong. The majority of Moslems are good and do not condone violence. Edgar Lungu is not of that pedigree. His rise in PF has been characterized by violence. That to me is a red flag.

  45. Well to Edger I only have this to say, The fact that you cant make any promises to the Zambian people after breaking several you made in 2011 suggest to em you really have nothing to offer other than your desire to be a pawn for Bandits and thugs like Willy Nsanda who according to Chishimba Kambwili is very corrupt and has engaged in very corrupt deals at RDA. Let those leaders that have an idea how to make Zambia better make their rational promises and show you how its done. Just because you don’t know how doesn’t mean other don’t. as for me and my family its HH in 2015 and trust me this is 13 votes that PF have lost from 2011 and counting as I approach everyone to do the needfull, we will not eat and send our kids to school on kinship

  46. ” munjeleleko ba zambia,,,,munjeleleko”

    Kitwe here we come….Jerabos,,,my brothers and sisters….miners…all our friends in the opposition,,,,Doctors…lawyers..civil servants…house wives…mwine mushi and kasaka…Dorika and the Big dudes….
    come and witness,,,,The incoming President of Zambia, The Hon Edgar C Lungu will be in town….

  47. President Lungu should shake up his cabinet. Starting with ministry of commerce. There must be a sleeping minister in pole position there because local trade and industry needs reawakening.

    Viva development.

  48. What a scruffy import Edgar Lungu is! In many countries, such a drunkard would not have qualified even to be considered as a counselor of a refugee camp, where he rightfully belongs. In Zambia, he is vying to be president!

  49. Now in PF, not even the owls dare fly at night in dread of Lungu’s panga wielding cadres. The dogs, cats and even bats long went into hiding. Lungu’s is a culture of violence never before witnessed on the Zambia scene. Should Lungu be the one to steal the show in the forth coming presidential elections, we may just as well brace ourselves to take refuge in a neighboring country like Zimbabwe! This is not a joke.

  50. Know what folks. I forsee mass resignations from PF to other parties with most going to UPND. If PF wins and EL becomes presdent, those that are not happy with him may leave PF. If UPND wins still some chancers from PF will leave and join HH with hope of riding in a jalopi with a flag mounted on it. The last time I saw EL on news during the laying of wreath he seemed sick, if not he may have been high on some substance because he clearly missed a step after turning around. Lets wait and see. I join those who question Sata’s so called vision. It was never clear to me. He appeared to be an old man who wanted the presidency to benefit from the international health trips. The man knew his time was near that could be the reason he built his retirement house early.

  51. we shall come because we know there will beer for every drunkerd but will remember nothing after the meeting you know how drunkerds behave it was ba mudala ba sata [action ,man] now its ba edger lager beer man] continueing with satas legacy of stealing later flying to foreign hospitals for treatment dont ask me just look at him listern to what he is therefore satas legacy unfornately hh wont be there he doest brink any alcohol sorry katondo boys he is just going to send sampas cadres . oh yes so that you fight when you get drunk hh chabe 2015

  52. Just because you drink kachasu in your constituence everyday and see everything as impossible doesn’t mean other people can’t also do it. You are just a finished thieving kachasu drunkard. Your interview today with Radio Phoenix has exposed you for what you truly are: a clueless i.d.i.o.t with nothing in the head, nothing for Zambia, except your drinking of kachasu. You couldn’t answer any question. What a finished drunkard. When the elections are over and done I suppose you will run to Rupiah Banda and go and hide in kapoche.

  53. @chester you’ve really run out of ideas.why waste preciou time and energy with such load of balderdash. some of you are better off lying back and praying for your candidate instead of causing them more damage. I’d like to believe that hh, unlikely as he is to win, deserves better.

  54. This Lungu is not being fair. He has hardly answered anything. How can he say he is not aware of the student problems with regards to bed space, the stage of the constitution and he is not party to the decision to increase the retirement age? Really, Lungu is not being serious or fair to his master Mr Sata. This is because it was Mr Sata who started the process of reversing the retirement age from 55 to 65 years, after noting that his govt was getting broke and it could no longer sustain the retirement package or bill. In other words this Lungu is saying his master was in the wrong on this matter.

  55. “……Opposition leaders can only continue where Sata left…..”, Lungu. Well said Edgar, well said. Just as Sata could only inherit or continue where RB left. Therefore the best man for the job is RB to continue where he left before Sata hijacked his programmes. Only RB had the true vision when he planned these development programmes, which Sata copied and claimed to be his vision. Sata’s only “vision” was to rule Zambia before he died, which is a wish and not a vision.

  56. Go to HELL with you EL. WE HAVE SUFFERED ENOUGH. THIS DRUNKARD IS NOT GOING TO BRING DEVELOPMENT EXCEPT THAT BEER WILL BE CHEAP.MY FELLOW MMD MEMBERS LETS MAKE SURE WE VOTE FOR HH0 COME 20th. OUR PARTY IS NOT GOING TO WIN THESE ELECTIONS SO LETS RALLY BEHIND THE CANDIDATURE OF HH FOR A BETTER ZAMBIA. THESE GUYS HAVE MESSED UP OUR COUNTRY

  57. As long as you don’t live in Zambia, you continue to be hurt. The truth is voters don’t excess these online useless writings. We are in Zambia and we are voting fairly and not looking at my own. Continue insulting each other but come 20th January 2015 I am casting my ballot for someone already in the system. Don’t expect anything new within a year as you are being fed lies by that opposition leader because everyone in 2015 will be campaigning for 2016. Keep on living in dreams.

  58. @ Zambian

    Well established liars are more trustworthy than presumed liars?

    Great reasoning and political acumen on which you need to be complimented. Bravo

  59. I just cant believe that any sane Zambian will still think about continuing with PF after what has been laid bare in the last weeks. Honestly we need to have our heads examined at Chainama.

  60. I understand RAINS disrupted Lungu’s campaign. Even nature is against the PF. 20 minutes into his campaign it started raining and the small crowd of people who had gathered scampered in all directions.

  61. Investigator.co.zm,

    Is what I saw on Muvi TV your conception of a small crowd? The crowd I saw at Freedom Park in Kitwe must have UPND and Miles Sampa worried.
