Zambia: Banda is driving Zambia into dictatorship- Fr Bwalya
Change Life Zambia Executive Director Fr Frank Bwalya says republican president Rupiah Banda is slowly driving the country into dictatorship.
Fr Bwalya says president Banda’s continued protection of alleged corrupt people in his government is clear a sign that the country is being driven into dictatorship.
He charged that the current government has failed to provide leadership and has continued to plunge the country into further disaster.
He stated that his organization would not rest until the country has a change of government in 2011.
Speaking last night on Muvi TV’s the Matter at Hand, Fr Bwalya alleged that the current government is corrupt and does not deserve to lead the country.

Ask him 2011 is election time, who then deserves to be ruling and how does he come up with that decision? The bastard is blank with his phobia for morally upright father figures with stead families. He finds comfort with those that sire fellow bastards only.This is the Chap Mpundu has been concealing from the Rwandese Genocide crime.Its time Rwandese extrative rapid squad entering the regional countries accessed extradited him for his role in Rwanda Genocide.

Why is the inspector general of police still working,meanwhile he is being investigated,why are people in embassies still working and getting their pay cheques after missapropriating miilions of poor tax payers back home,almost all the ministries have been been mentioned as having misapproprited funds in one way or another
I think these are the questions Fr Bwalya is trying to put across,but if we as zambians can call this RANTING,then im afraid we are doomed and cursed

LEAVE FR BWALYA ALONE, HE IS ENTITLED TO HIS OPINION. EVEN YOU ARE ENTITLED TO YOURS, ZAMBIA IS A FREE COUNTRY. ISN’T WHAT HE IS SAYING WHAT OTHER PEOPLE LIKE POLITICIANS LIKE SATA AND HH, TRANSPARENCY INTERNATIONAL ZAMBIA AND OTHER PROGRESSIVE ZAMBIANS ARE SAYING; THAT RB IS SHIELDING CHILUBA? PUT FORWARD YOUR OPINIONS IF YOU HAVE ONE ON THE ISSUES THAT FR BWALYA IS RAISING THAN INSULT HIM.
Fr. Bwalya is just as useless as those that are still allowing him to continue as Priest. He is a self confessed politician hence going contrally to the norms of Catholic Priesthood. Let him not use the church as a shield, he is doing more harm to the Catholic Church and before they realise it would have been too late already.

Change or die? Since he has no political party, who is he campaigning for? We want to know who, according to him, is worthy of this change? What is his criteria for his choice? Can we hold himself or his organization responsible if it turns out that we voted for criminal dictator? So far and without answers to these questions, this man is disgraced and in need of help.

#10, Please understand that a failure to adhere to each and every guideline in the procerement process does not amount to theft of taxpayers money. Every Report of the Auditor-General will contain some exceptions. It does not always mean theft. For example if an Embassy raises some money from visa fees but does not send the money back to Lusaka but instead uses the money to pay rentals in order to avoid embarassement for the country, the action will raise an audit querry but does not in fact amount to theft. Do not jump to conclusions just because the Auditor General has raised a querry. Wait for the explanation from the spending agency which usually explains why they considered it expedient to break a particular financial regulation.

This i think is the problem in my beloved country… we seem to think thank simply by changing government we will be better off.
There is too much hatred that people can not really make informed decisions in the end the politicians only give you what you want to hear.
If you want the government to work why not start with you??? and i mean you working to make a difference not just to change government… you got too used to receiving coupons in the KK times that anything that says work for it you dont like…
Am sorry but i think RB has done well when it comes to trying to make sure that the people he appoints do there Job. Levy died because people didnt do there job and he decided to do it himself he didnt have the support but didnt want to dessapoint & worked his socks off

The only Person i fear is Sata. If voted into Power can easily become a dictator. Of late he has been involved in physically removing people who oppose him from Studios where there are freely airing out their view on him and Manhandling his own members who are not happy with the way he is handling PF. A good example is his own National Youth Chairman, Attack on Muvi TV Staff and Radio sation staff in Mazabuka. If this Chap, sorry Shikulu can do that while in Opposition, what more if he becomes President. People like Father Bwalya will not even find the podia to express their views

#15 Are you saying the Auditor General issues an audit report without discussing it with the Auditee? That would be so flawed in the audit process. All audit findings must be discussed during the exit conference. If the Internal controls for that institution specify that visa fees collected should not be redirected, then paying rentals without proper authorization is a major breach and I would highlight it in my report. It’s as good as theft because that’s a serious override of controls. From rentals, tomorrow it will be purchase of personal items.

# 10 this is the corrupness of this Country we are talking about. Fr Bwalya is right. The leadership is corrupt. They are preventing certain individuals from facing the law. Take Miti for example. He has clearly stolen from us the tax payers, yet he is a free person even as we speak because of corrupt RB who can’t do anything to bring back sanity to this Country in as far as justice is concerned. Talk about the IG. the list is long. he who covers thieves is corrupt and this is what RB is busy doing.

So come on guys, let those guns out, this guys is in the political arena, curb him, together with his biological father Bishop Mpundu, ama guys have forgotten their role, their spirituality has taken a second seat.

Some people’s thinking and analytical capacity is too shallow. How else can someone explain support for an exposed fornicator, criminal and liar like batata ba Sata to be president, or even this nincompoop cum priest Bwalya, or even Father Telesphore? If the majority of people are this shallow minded, then government has a huge responsibility to think for you until your brains develop. The government has to exercise this responsibilty to protect the country, remember they swore to protect us all from danger? Very sad to be going back on our democracy but there seems to be no choice at all. Change may be desirable but to replace sanity with Sata?

There will always be pessemists. Even if one comes along and says they will eliminate world hunger, you will find some opposing. Now we have some screaming for change of GRZ even if RB has had less then 3 yrs in office and the books seem to be balancing. I think it is to do more with tribalisim embeded with a superior complex. Just give the man a chance. PLM faced such calls before he had done a full term. But he turned out ok. Lets look at economic facts, and base our hatred correctly.

The die Zambia man, Bwalya, could have been more helpful if he mentioned the corrupt people that RB has kept in his governemet, or atleast he could have mentioned some of the corrupt activities he has observed. Failing to substantiate any of his allegations is not good enough for someone of his standing, its cadre territory.

Iwe #51, what kind of contribution is this? What do you understand by “led to Christ?” You mut be very dull or Satan’s angel himself! have you not read in the Bible that faith without works is DEAD?!! By professing alone with no action you are as good as a dead christian/non-believer! If you see corruption and injustice, what do you do? For you, its about going on your knees and it ends there…foolish, for Fr Bwalya its going on the knees to ask for courage to speak and act. By the way, when he says we need change,does he mean Sata has to be that change??? Have you ever thought it could still be RB, BUT a reformed one?!!! Reformation is allowed in christianity after all….

One of their own even had the audacity to say “The pope cannot make a mistake.” – Pope Gregory VII (1073-85). Another of their kind said “Every human being must do as the pope tells him.” – Pope Boniface VIII (1294-1303). Paschal II: (1099-1118) said “Whoever does not agree with the Apostolic See is without doubt a heretic.” Pope Leo XIII (1878-1903): “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” ( Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894 ) .
Frank Bwalya is just another waffling monk. History has taught us not to believe everything these priests say! They are fallible human beings who err. Not everything they say should be taken as gospel truth.

Some of these priests joined priesthood to use it as a get way to fame of some sort.Some of them were not so bright at school they barely passed their g.12.used the church to get degrees in Theology and Philosophy with real trouble.why didn’t they go to university when that time entry was so easy?And now they want to appear as if they were intelligent,****!
