Voting in some parts of Nchanga Constituency on the Copperbelt Province started on a low note with some places like Mpezeni polling station recording 50 people out of 254 that cast their votes by 12:45 hours.
A check by Zambia News and Information Services (ZANIS) found people trickling in
slowly and some of the people talked to said the elections had come at a time when
they are busy in the fields.
At Chimfinsa polling station, 80 people had cast their votes after 1300 hours out of
the registered 264 voters while at Mbayi polling station, only 44 people cast their
votes by 13:30 hours.
Meanwhile, United Party for National Development (UPND) Copperbelt Province
Chairperson Joe Kalusa and 11 others were last night picked and detained by police
in Chingola.
Mr Kalusa said he was picked up at the civic centre where he was attending a
conflict management meeting where they reported a case of members from the ruling
party who were about to distribute mealie meal, chicken and cooking to the
electorate.
He said that he was at first charged with theft which he said he did not understand
and later it was changed to conduct likely to cause breach of peace adding that the
case will go to court and that he has already engaged a lawyer.
Mr Kalusa said he was worried that the eleven that have been detained are registered
voters who will not vote if they are not released. He said he has been denied an
opportunity to check on what is happening in the polling station.
However, the atmosphere in the constituency is calm as no reports of violence have
been reported.
Congratulations CHIMUMBWA for scooping the NCHANGA seat.VIVA MWANAWASA VIVA MMD for life and abash PF and SATA.
Ladies and gentlemen,my fellow patriotic zedians, I wish to congratulatute the winner under the ticket of PF and to you novice parties I say you win some and you lose some that the game of politics.
I will be back in a short time.Meanwhile its landslide victory to PF though gay’s paper (post) is claimimg to be head to head.
Ba Joze….are these facts or Kachepa? I dont want to waste my bottle of champaign over kachepa. Can you confirm.
Ba Mashina # 1,
I welcome your preference for use of the FACT name. Earnestly i have no issues with that in view of our respective IP location distance vividly traceable on the hosted server.I congratulate you for that exhibited euphoria though evidently we are different on approach and values to such things.I hope you have realized my absence of any anxiety in this one.Godspeed
I CONFIRM, PF HAS SCOOPED NCHANGA SEAT unless VJ shadow comes and twist the results. Stay tune for up date.

Ba Boss you are crewing up.Why admit?
PATRIOTIC Front president Michael Sata has admitted that he is the person in the Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) footage which captured him putting a passport in the inner pocket of his jacket. …
Ba Pragmatist kalembeni fye aka buku…. Try to translate Kachasu aingila Ubusocha. Who has time to read your crap. ViVA PF let the wine flow.
Ba Chimumbwa inchito yapwa! You can fool some people sometimes but you cant fool all the people all the time.
Where are the resuts?
Where are the resuts?
CHIMUMBWA has been taught a lesson that will be stuck on his memory for a long time.Meanwhile judgement on his theft case is just days away and CHUCHU will ditch him as usual.
I new I could count on CHINGOLA residents to put a check on this autocratic rule which could have led us to a ONE PARTY DICTORSHIP.
VICTORY to SANITY.
What next MMD with VJ the master rigger on the side lines.
Chimumbwa alachula mambala! Good work Chingola residents!!
mendropa have you confirmed the results?
anyone to confirm the results please?
From the 27 Polling stations counted so far, here are total results, according to Radio Chengelo:
PF: 4852; MMD: 1081; UPND: 286; APC:241: The other are not worth mentioning.
Shame ba MMD ba mukolwe!
Ba Muma pamona Chimumbwa, alemona kwati ino ni 1996
See, abantu mu Zambia tabonfwa, Last year, I visited home at the time when the prliamentary campaigns were starting and one of my friends was running on the MMD ticket, I tried to tell him that he had no chance and that he was going to loose all the money he had generated through his familly business and the MMD would dump him after losing, he thought I was just jealous of him, the guy lost meserably and now, he is a nobody in MMD. The same thing will hapern to Chimumbwa. The guy is a big looser
This is good news for Democracy. Thank Dr. LPM for distancing yourself from such corrupted chaps. I think Ba Joze must be celebrating. I will turn Radio Chengelo. Dont underrate LPM he is a man of intergrity. Chifumbwa should not be allowed to stand for elections for the next five years for causing this uncessary by election. Zambia need a strong democracy but not a mad president in the name of Chilufya. We have to do away with such guys who are hampering development.
#22 EASY.
LPM never distanced himself from CHIMUMBWA the conman,infact he was nomiminated by the same party LPM leads.
Next time,we`ll be hearing how LPM is seriously fighting corruption just after going to bed with a corrupt minion.Give us a break you DEMAGOGUES.
pf 8881 mmd 2139 final results.
Chimumbwa taishiba ati aba chanshu taba voter? VIVA PF. The Right hounarable MC Sata is still popular. He is the only one carring the wishes of the people. This will bring sanity to the political spectrum.
#1 Mwaiche wandi FACT
Get your facts right with your lunatic 27 year rule because it will never work in Zambia.
Your bootlicking days mwaiche are numbered.All your predictions about this race have been proved to be FALSE.
Prof CHIRWA`s first funded election ends in a loss,what a beginning.
CHIMUMBWA`s gamble backfires and now he`s on his way to being a destitute.
The Havard paper has worked,now we need one for that hopeless University which gave Chuchu his Doctorate to tell MMD that spining and taking people for granted is criminal.
Congrats PF, way to go About Sata’s passport issue, being a PI by Malawi or any other country does not automatically prevent you from entering the US, Canada etc… it just warns you that you may be refused a visa or entry. The final say is up to the visa/customs officer, case in point… Mandela travelled to the USA and Canada while both countries deny persons with criminal convictions from entry but they look at the individual’s case. Since her divorce and subsequent conviction on kidnapping
charges, Canada has refused to allow her to visit Canada. I’m sure the USA visa officer took into account the merits of Sata’s expulsion from Malawi (CIA are everwhere), Sata simply out played the system in Zambia. The embassy knew that his visit was for political purposes, I’m sure some agent told him to go back to Lusaka and get another passport to ensure entry. Hello!!!
“Since her divorce” I mean Winnie Mandela. Sorry fellas
A lesson to all politicians and those sponsoring unnecessary by-elections. Our development has been sacrificed in the name of democracy. There has been no money for our hospitals, but money for political prostitutes is always available.
Zambians have come of age. We salute you. Thank you for making the right choice Nchanga.
PF 8301, MMD 2139,UPND 532,UNIP 78, APC 587, FDD 103, Independents 110,47.
MMD humiliated 8000-2000,No VJ this tym around
Lips of the righteous, teach many!!!But fools die for want of wisdom.So Let….
to bad MMD u have been told or shown a red card and that is the sign of 2011 PF will form govt and shame on u who like making jokes on the president sata MMD has not in their life time won a election like that sorry UPND MMD Next time if it will come but at the rate things are goin u can be lucky if u can win MMD is a forgetten child and they are like a street kid without parents left to find votes for itself i feel for u suppoters of this defacte party
I cant believe Ngondo got more votes than UPND. Way to go Ken Winright….hahahahaha. Chawama sana ba PF bawina. I hate MMD.
Now we can wait for Dr. Chuchu’s rule of law to act on one of his own – Chimumbwa Kabolala wa copper.
Ba Joze! Today is friday, invite me for whisky. Your party has won. Congrats!! Good lesson for Chimumbwa. He’s now a common man like me. What about the copper cathodes he stole. He has to be arrested.
China beware, PF is getting stronger. Come 2011 Zambia will have an embassy in Taiwan, and citizen empowerment for ordinary Zambians will be a reality.
Good lesson for political mercenaries. I hope the entire Zambia would treat defecting MPs (regardless of the party)the same way Chimumbuwa has been dealt with. Money spent at this by election would have fixed some potholes or paid pensioners or civil servants.
#38 GLUCO not need of drinking whisky with Ba Joze. This is the kind of royality we need among politicians who just from one end to another depending on wind direction. Chifumbwa had it coming we predicted this and he was not able to read between lines. Is not the same guy who was fighting in parliament. Even insulting our mothers and now stealing copper. Defecting to MMD I dont think he should on Movement for Multiparty Democracy but Movement for Mad Demagogues as Chapi always say. The boy had
no support from Dr. LPM he could reliase this until he was thrashed out of by the ballot box.
Joze tiye tumunwinepo..Chubumbwa..oooops..Chipumbwa..ooops..Chimumbwa. Nalashita 1st round.
Thanks Movement for Mad Dogs for merely participating in the elections, thankyou once again for the bribes you gave us but in the end we knew who to vote for, last but not least thankyou for wasting our tax payers money (money banda), silvia masebo and other government officials used in this election mainly for bribes and corruption. Viva PF , shame on MMD
Movement for Mad Dogs surely how can you field someone whose attending court sessions with regard to copper theft and expect to win? do you think us the people of chingola are so stupid to vote for him?
What a humiliating defeat. Even the Post which has been keen to progress in past by-elections as we saw in Fashion phiri’s case has been mute this time around. Normally we should have seen some small headline on who was leading in polling stations that had results by 19:00hrs or so, but they elected to put a CCTV nonsense as headline. “Baloba ilyauma” It is not too late the Post came redeem itself by getting back on track before one or two individuals push the good paper into disrepute.Bad 4 MMD
#10 get your own ID.
#6-9 PragMAFIst, plz twala ingulu ukutali. Nishani tata, mwipenena pa blog or apakupwishisha icifukushi coz of Mumbwe Mumbwe or Chimumbwe.
We are not celebrating here in Nchanga coz the odds were on our side right from the beginning.It was just formality to go by election.
We have received unconfirmed report that Dr Chuchu is critically ill. We (PF cadres) wish him to get well soon as he did when he had stroke last time.
MMD you brought silvia masebo to campaingn for chimumbwa when she’s busy buying hundred of hats for herself and us can’t barely afford a single descent meal a day, do you think we are that docile people to vote for chimumbwa.Lesson number one don’t take the zedian people for granted anymore like you did to my poor brothers and sisters in petauke by threatening them that no vote for you no relief food, that shall not happen again and to the post newspaper why are you not publishing the results?
ZNBC was quick to waste public resources on getting and airing the CCTV footage from The Post in a futile attempt to shame Sata, but they could not move that fast to get and air Mwanga’s vidoe in the Congo not too long ago (needless to mention that they have never collaborated with the Post to air it up to now). Just because this time around govt have a common enermy in the name of Sata they go to all lengths to air the footage What a BIG shame!! A defenseless man, a man who has no media to
Cont…. respond on an equal footing. Despite all odds he has stood up to them. Shame on all of them. For ZNBC it may not be their faulty but due to political patronage. But even then they should try to refuse Mulongoti’s interference.
Ba Jose sorry we wish dr chuchu a quick recovery if its true that he’s unwell, maybe its the results which has shocked him cos he can’t take this embarassment anymore as he wanted very much to shield this copper theft by chimumbwe and the chinese infestors. Long live PF and HON SATA
The recent by-election results indicates that the PF boat will only sink because of overweight due to overloading contrary to the vice presidents coment that the boat will be empty because people are getting out of it.
Make right decision–Veep
By Melody Chansa
VICE-President, Rupiah Banda yesterday urged the electorate in Nchanga Constituency to make the right decision by voting for the MMD candidate, Charles Chimumbwa in today’s by-election.
During the rally at Buntungwa Park in Nchanga North, Mr Banda said voting for the MMD candidate would jump-start development in the area which had lagged behind for the past one year when they voted for opposition Patriotic Front (PF).
He said it was only Mr Chi
The Zambian electorate have spoken……we will no longer accept political prostitution !! Party jumping should be frowned upon and a clear message is sent to other MP’s who want to take their electors for granted.We have said it before…it is unfair that a defecting MP be adopted.Defecting MP’s must be banned and only allowed to re-contest after 5 years !!Good Luck Nchanga constituency…you will have to wait till the next election for any meaningful development.Any more defections after this?
The people of Nchanga constituency have taught someone a lesson, that it does not pay to cross from one party to another. In the past few years, nation has been subjected to unnecessary bye elections at a very huge cost to the tax payers. Each time there is a bye election, the entire state machinery literally shifts camp to the concerned constituency, bringing Government business to a stand still. I hope this is a lesson to other would be defectors.
“Dr” Muwelewele knew very well what was coming and never wanted to embarass himself so he sent LUPIYA banda to go and distribute mealie meal and chicken to police officers and voters in Nchanga. If lupiya doesn’t know it the new deal which become old now that will soon be empty!!! Stupid MMD
UKO NDEISA MU 2011, Nkalabalopola fye ifikoti abena Daka (not boxing iyoo!) nabena Musosha
Maybe now political parties will steer clear of defecting MP’s!!How can MMD adopt a defector and try and re-impose him/her on the electorate. Such gimmicks discourage new entrants into the political arena !!If you ever left the Republican Party in the USA,the Democrats would NEVER adopt you as a candidate for the same area.A lesson can be learnt from our American friends here !!The same is true in most of Europe.Its time African political strategists played a new tune !!
I can imagine how LPM IS FEELING. When Sata comes into power he should look at such abuse of office and power as exhibited by MMD.Spending billions on a by elections when the cause was already lost.How can a ruling party field a copper theft suspect?
For our friends the post,you barked the wrong tree.Get back to reality and be objective like you used to be. Reality check is PF will be forming the next Government
Looking at today’s Zambian politics,one would easily say PF will win 2011 elections no matter what.But my worry is over Sata.If only Sata was well educated and had splendid advisers,then the current economical policies were going to continue bearing positive results.However,I’m afraid to mention that FTJ’s era is just around the corner in Zambia.MMD’s lose in Nchanga shows that pipo are not happy and the picture given to us abroad isn’t true.Congrats PF,but I hate yr Sata as he lies alot!!
#59 KM-Russia you see i told you so just come back to zed maybe BA HON SATA can adopt you to stand on PF ticket, whether you hate HON SATA or not doesn’t matter to us zedians we have confidence in this Vastly experienced politian as at now, just learn to like him. Which lies are you talking about when he says chinese are crooks amongst other people you yourself didn’t believe but the police caught them last week and the nation knows it all so what lies are you talking about?
#59 for your own information. Did you know that the great muwelewele you trust so much has grabbed a piece of land from UNZA, ask him why he did that? Only HON SATA will come and reposess this land from muwelewele come 2011, SATA will also make him accountable for this money they are misusing for the NCC.Kunda, mpombo,shikapwasha, money banda,silvia masebo and mulongoto friendly warning stop misusing taxpayers money, 2011 is not far as it seems its just around the corner.Tuzamilola ba MMD
Guess what?There’re bad and good pipo in any nationality.Hence,stop saying Chinese in general.Just say certain pipo from China were arrested in Ndola with stolen copper.Sata promises to improve our economy within 90 days.How?Do u think Zambia is so rich like U.S.A or Japan?Yes,with time and good economical policies living conditions can be improved and not like the way Sata claims.LPM has done a good job.If only LPM can try to offer free education up to G12,pipo will greatly appreciate him!
#1 FACT is a speculater and such pipo behave like MMD which party do u belong to u shud wake up gentlemen and become real PF is real.u are the bad eggs zambia does not need.dont behave like chimumbwa or mulongoti who think china in the morning afternoon and when they sleep change ur mind i guess u are too young to die with the movement of mad dogs MMD GET UP
VIVA PF mwaloba iya uma MOVEMENT OF MAD DOGS
#59 KM RUSSIA. Situation in Zambia in summary.The theory of Unintended Consequences states that almost all human actions have at least one unintended consequence. The unintended results may be foreseen or unforeseen, but they should be the logical results of the action.
• a positive unexpected windfall
• a potential source of problems, according to Murphy’s law
• a negative effect, which is the opposite result of what is intended
Continued:FTJ’s 3rd term & choice of Dr Chuchu, & Dr Chuchu’s selective fight againist corruption are typical examples. Chimumbwa’s case is one of many yet to come.
GRZ has veered off course and is perpetually grappling to deal with unintended consequences which are themselves borne out other preceding unintended consequences. No end in sight.
congrats pf
I would also like to offer LPM heartfelt free advice;LPM avoid associating yrself with politians like Katele Kalumba plus many others with bad reputations.They say “IMAGE IS TRUST AND TRUST IS MONEY”.So if u want yr MMD to regain the lost glory,then get rid of rejected politians.U started well,but things’re getting worse for the ruling party.Voters’re wise now.This’ll give PF with Sata a golden chance of winning 2011 elections.I’m neither MMD nor PF member,but I’m for a better mother Zambia!!
13 Hours news headline MMD accepts defeat pls start now to get used as 2011 is comin it will be very hard to stomach look at the simusa very intellegent u kn i thought that PF had alot of its MPs as illetrate pipo until i got a book from parliament which showed that its 1 party that leads in education imagine DR KATEMA,DR CHISHIMBA,DR MACHUNGWA ,SIMUSA,DR SCOTT,LAWYER MWANSA, the list is endless wake up this is the party for pipo
62. KM-Russia,
Zambian mines have never before produced and exported as much copper as they are doing today. Zambians are getting only a drop of the revenues (in salaries). The rest is externalised and devlopning countries like China. Under H.E MCSata mines will pay reasonable taxes into the national treasury. Your Dr. HELPMSC is scared to renegotiate the sale of mines agreement.
GUIDE: Choose the best out of the available, and sure it is NOT Musosha or Mulyata BUT Sata
KM Russia, i remenber you from yesterday. I remember your comments and sentiments on the blog. We are keeping records of pipo like you who talk without reasoning.I am sure you are embarrased to the core that PF has won the elections
It was obvious Sata would win the elections. But watch it. He will never win a national election. MMD will always Win without CB Kaponya Towns.
When i was in Chingola we used to call Chimumbwa ‘ ba Mofu’. Ci Mofu cilikulukufye he got ‘rich’ almost overnight. Somebody should do a thorough investigation on this chimintu, nicikabwalala. Thank goodness hes lost and lost horribly. ABASH COPPER THIEVES, ABASH CI MOFU.
Zambia is experiencing a news blackout. are we under a state of emergency? Zamnet has been down for weeks. so is ZNBC whats going on?
#74 Socrates, you are right but you can get news from Radio Ichengelo or Phoenix. Zamnet Server is always under cyber attack due lack of IT Security. So dont blame them they are still learning. These are just lesson of what can happen in future where the system could be down for months causing hammer to the economy. The POST is only surviving because they have their Server in Houston, Texas. Though Phoenix experience problems they are less than the ones Zamnet have. I wonder all pipo doing…
business with Zamnet and the loses they incur if they are ever compensated.

Nomba naya mukukubunua.Link up NEXT WEEK and to you all Guys,I say enjoy your weekend.
Pipo we are still receiving unconfirmed report that Dr Chuchu has been sick for a couple of days and it’s now state secrete.Anybody with an ear to the ground plz confirm to us.
While Magande is busy boasting about the single digit inflation and a healthy economy.All Chingola residents are experiencing are over 70% UNEMPLOYMENT,lack of medicines in hospitals while CHUCHU and his gang of DEMAGOGUES rush to MORNINGSIDE for a better health care.There`re seeing these bandits called investors externalising all the funds generated from exploiting our natural resources.There`s no gov policy in place restricting externalising all financial gains which leaves Zambians at a loss.
HK shut up!
Hey the game is over,whether you hate chimumbwa or not it does not matter.Who sponsors this lusakatimes anyway? It must be SATANA Michael and his t friends.The lier president and PI in a sister country.
Where is Dr.Chuchu? He has being way quiet for too long
and his wife is nolonger seen on TV.Its not that it saddens me at all -it actually a very plesant thing.Am just wondering why I don’t see Dr.Chuchu blowing his trumpet and losing his temper .
Dr Chuchu is in a coma, Thats why he didnt campaign for chimumbwa and thats why you dont see him on TV. MHSRIP
CONGRATULATIONS PF for teaching these RIFF RUFFS a good lesson.The entire MMD cabinet camped in CHINGOLA but they received a rude shock as the people have clearly spoken.
MIKAHELI CHILUFYA SATA,kindly slow down with the pressure you`re putting on DR LPM.As you know that he`s a chronic patient who doesn`t take embarassing losses so well.It`s so humiliating for a big headed person to swallow a HUMBLE PIE.
Otherwise,we wish him a speedy recovery from whatever ailment is troubling him.
Gentlemen, stop making proganda about the health of the president.If its true he is sick then the government should tel the nation because we shall dissolve them for misinformation, misdirection, perjury and hide public information. We citizens want to know what is going on with the president. The last time he appeared on TV is on the 23.10.2007. The wife was recently in Britain where she has been honoured. Chapi I can tell Iam a happy person because democracy is maturing in Zambia.
BREAKING NEWS
Dr LPM is in a critical condition in a London Hospital.He was admitted on Tuesday.No further information has been provided. Check Skynews.com for this news item
dr chuchu should recover very quickly cos he must give back the land he grabbed from UNZA before anything happens to him otherwise maureen will hide all the documents. this loss should not make him very sick, he must just take it as a man and Chimumbwe must be tried now #81 you must escort your uncle to the courts
#85 EASY
I am so thrilled with the way democracy is taking root in our nation.I didn`t care so much about who won the Nchanga Bye election so long as it wasn`t CHIMUMBWA/MMD.I would only hope that this result has put an end to elected officials switching political parties which in turn causes unneccesary and costly bye elections.
Do you have any latest information with your investigative data search about the wherabouts of the PRESIDENT and his state of health?
