Let Mrs Mwanawasa take over as president, Northern Province Minister

Share

Northern Province Minister, Lameck Chibombamilimo has proposed that Mrs Mwanawasa should take over as president, saying she has the attributes necessary for the job. He said in Lusaka Sunday that Mrs Mwanawasa’s credentials were appropriate for this period and that she could be trusted to stick to the principles set by Mwanawasa.

“We cannot doubt her capacity to discharge the duties of this office as we have been witnesses to her developmental work scattered throughout the country and her leadership at the continental level where she has led her fellow first ladies in the fight against HIV/AIDS,” Chibombamilimo said in a statement.

He said a cross-section of Zambians would not hesitate to rally behind Mrs Mwanawasa as a way of honoring her late husband’s vision.

“My strongest appeal to my fellow leaders in government and the ruling party is that we put aside our individual pursuit for leadership and demonstrate to the nation and the world at large that we are not in power for the sake of power,” he said.

And losing Matero MMD candidate in the 2006 general elections, Goodward Mulubwa has echoed Chibombamilimo’s sentiments.

Mulubwa said Mrs Mwanawasa had the right qualities befitting a national president.

He said the first lady was well known countrywide because of the Maureen Mwanawasa Community Initiative programs she had been undertaking.

  1. constitution must be followed and LPM’s sentiments respected, she has never held any MMD position before so not ifya luse zed is not a monarchy

  2. Chibombamilimo does not understand Zambian and MMd politics hence his reckless push.Royalty to the late President does not translate to the first lady.He better stop it now before he bears tag on dangerous politics of appeasement.NEC has already resolved for a compromise choice man that will unity the country and MMD.We don’t blind cadre rhetoric but strategists who use multi dimensional thinking and focusting.Stop pushing the mourning mother into humiliation.

  3. Chibombamilimo you are an embarrassment to the nation and Mulubwa now I understand why you lost the elections in Matero because you never make sense. Honestly, if Maureen was to take over as the President of Zambia just because her husband was the President then why having the constitution in Zambia? Then we can bring back KK in the state house because he is well known in and out Zambia as the statesman……

  4. chibombamilimo has no brains,we know you have started looking for a job,believe me you are not going to keep that job you by l…king that womans feet,so bwana tapeniko ukulonga.What has she done for MMD or Zambia before her late husband was put in office.

  5. Some of us have bee long time King makers, we have also brought down those we have opposd after telling them that we are takig you on your feet sir for ABCD we disapprove. Surely we served the three Presidents while Chibombamilimo has just been a distant cadre with delegated voice.He has a very narrow knowledge base of king making Zambian politics.Tell him to stop it now bear bearing the cost of reckless talk.

  6. Chibombamilimo is full of what in Research methods and Design we call individualistic fallacies.Where is he getting that faulty data that zambians across terrains are for Madam Mwanawasa.Stop unnecessary diversions of the NEC members from consolidating the vote for a unity ticket taking overwhelming endorsements already.If he is a challenged man, leave the game to us who make things happen.

  7. If anyone had any doubts that the transprovincial parading of LPM’s corpse was not a campaign strategy, Chibombamilimo has put that matter to rest. Political Blunder of the centuary if MMD field the former first lady as their presidential candidate. I can’t wait for the drama!!

  8. I dont understand how some people think during this time the woman is morning her husband then someone wants her to start speaking about politics. When last time she even made it clear she dosent want to stand for the presidency.And the postion of presidency is not to be given to someone because you feel pity for the person,or a matter of honouring someone.It is a matter of leadership to take care of God’s people in a particular nation.I dont think it is morally right to do what these two guys are saying neither is it right politically.

  9. Maureen Mwanawasa Community Initiative is what this fool is use to measure her ability? Then Hope foundation- Vera Chiluba wamtarika will also qualify?
    For Goodward Mulubwa dont be surprised. Thats how it is when some one get rich na ndalama zam chibuku. Go in a tarven where they sale chibuku and see. What order is there? Look at how they transport their product. Doti! Imwe forget these people.

  10. Chibombamilimo you are a shallow minded politician, how can you say such things? when Teta was taklking about succesion you were counter attacting him. Can you tell the nation what bana Chipo has done for MMD? has she been active? Tampeniko fye ukulonga imwe inchito naipwa. Mwilasata fye koseni bane, Kosa nga wali kosa.

  11. Zambians should be serious about who takes over as the next President.I totally agree with 6 above.let us not be carried away by emotions and try to put up candidates for republican president just because of close affiliation to the late president.Zambia is a republic and NOT a Kingdom were hereditary reins supreme. Candidates with right credentials for post of President should be nominated according to the Zambian constitution.I don,t believe Mrs Mwanawasa fits the list. Please leave her alone and let her mourn the late husband.

  12. Bootlicking is in his blood, and now that Mwanawasa is dead, he knows his job is in doubt and he’s looking for a new boot.

  13. i never knew that even some elderly people don’t have sense!!!THIS IS THE MOST USELESS(STUPIST) THING SOMEONE CAN SAY!! lets be serious zambians how can someone who has just lost a husband get into active politics while others tears have not dried yet!! we have lost our traditions!! where are our morals!!? foolish chibombamilimo!!!!!

  14. He must be speaking for himself as his job is on the line.what nonscence..where are all the men gone.? foolish *****!

  15. Ba # 22 not chibombamilimo. its Maureen herself. she is sending them to say all this rubbish. its crazy. Power gone. She will see how politics works. Everyone who was calling her mum is leaving so they can find other boots to lick. Mrs Chiluba is having a ball by now. ati twalingana. Same! More drama is coming mu Carbinet. wait! people are leaving. Watch this space!

  16. I never comment on this site though I enjoy reading them but after reading this article I couldnt help myself. It was either I ignore the comment and explode with outrage or speak my mind and help myself process what I just read. Maybe im taking this out of context but this grown man might actually think Zambia is a monarch or that the goverment is some sort of family business that can be passed on by right or through inheriatnce. Everyday I try to figure out why Zambian politicians say popular things… By that I mean they say things that ideally may sound good when in actuality are as ridiculous as the individuals that propose them. I agree with # 2 I will to renounce my citizenship.

  17. Maureen just concentrate on mourning your husband. Mulumbwa and chibombamilimo , you are just two simple fools who do not deserve to be in politics.These are same comments made by tetemashimba , what a bunch of fools we have in MMD. Lets think of people like magande, Emmanuel Kasonde to mention a few.

  18. Let the woman mourn. It seems that many of us are wondering if this is mourning and/or campaigning. Please let us be careful not to misread Maureen’s actions. Even if Maureen is floated as a candidate, she is free to do so. Zambia is a democracy so she would still have to be selected by her party from among competing candidates. The drama unfolds. People lets remember, Zambia is a mature democracy, not a dynasty.

  19. UM EXCUSE ME PLZZZZ IS THIS A MINISTER SAYING THAT? AHHHH ICHALO CHAPWA..I WIL STAY IN ATLANTA GA WILL BE BACK WHEN A SERIOUS PRESIDO IS ELECTED…IM ALSO CANCELLING MY DECEMBER TRIP PANTU TAFILEMONEKA BWINO……

  20. CHIBAMBILIMO NIBULULU WAKWA MAUREEEN HIS JUST TRYING TO SAVE HIS ASS..STCHOPET SOMETIMES MWATONTONKANYAKO PLZ..SHAME ON U BA MINISTER

  21. this is what I said a few days ago. gentle men maureen of all the people in zamibia.. therefore I would simply advise Zs to vote her out. Maureen is very heartless female creature.

  22. come on zambians its high time we kicked the MMD OUT!! they want to play cheap politics with us!!!! I don’t think as zambians we are so cheap!!!!

  23. Reason why Africa only goes backwards. As intelligient as she is, it was seen as a retrogressive move voting for Hilary.
    How about Mrs Mwanawasa?

    God help that continent!

  24. Hon Chibambilimo is just trying to keep his job.the next president is the one who will take you in or leave you.Have you done your home work Hon Minister?we don’t need Maureen to rule Zambia.

  25. Trouble is at the moment, who ever rubbish person the MMD is going to pick will win. Chances are he will be clueless and then will win the next elections whenever they will be held giving the short term in office as an excuse.

    Brace yourselves people! It will take another 37 years before things change again.

  26. whats wrong with maureen standing for presidency. is she not a zambian citizen. why a we zambians so self centred. Dont look at how someone shouts along with cadres as a qualification.look at the education which maureen has. hilary almost got the nomination coz of the experience she got from bill. dont underate first ladies they get experience in matters related to national affairs.Maureen if u so wish go ahead and no one should stop you.you guys who are against have nothing to offer other than just talk.

  27. chibombamilimo you have to have a brain of a man.

    you cannot Zs on the expense of your position and maney.

    I think you need a very special brain scan and surgery at the
    end of the day.

    MMD just go and let a fresh Govt come in.

  28. I just don’t understand this man with his off tangent judgement.NEC has for the past three days been in positive deliberation for compromise choice man,endorsements have swallen and cooperating partners are being briefed yet Milimo comes from behind gloating bluffs.The question is how many assuring votes have solicited and won a blessing for the first lady? Its like the poor man is in deep darkness.Mbeki,Zuma,Dos Antos,Pohamba,Kiwete,Khama and Armando GUEBUZA have been taking briefs through special emissaries since Sata.Everyone has seen the wisdom of a compromise choice.No NEC member want to risk with a none starter option.Leave madam alone she has no future in active politics.

  29. MAUREEN….PRESIDENT
    VERA…..VICE PRESIDENT
    CASTRO…FINANCE MINISTER
    MUKUTULU SINYANI….MINISTER OF DEFENCE
    CHIBOMBAMILIMO…MINISTER WITHOUT PORTFOLIO OR BACKBENCHR MY ASS

  30. So….. What else is new? we have always known him to be her lackey. Actualy his statement is rather late. Was expected a lot earlier.

  31. # 43 godwin mutinta!! mulatusampuzya basa!!!! we are africans and when one loses a spouse they must mourn them for some time!!! and pliz dont mix the zambian politics and the american politics coz what works for america might not work for zambia!!!!

  32. ba maureen tabalemoneka nokulosha.she was supposed to be in a corner with one of her in laws with her.In zambian tradition a widow stays in a corner and is given someone to stay with and eat with as she mourn.Lets not throw away our culture and tradition.When things don’t go well you start asking yourself as to want happened but you forget that at one time you didn’t follow some simple tradition or culture.Tizaonako.

  33. godwin mutinta,

    Stop confusing yourself.You don’t understand the Zambian and MMD politics.The choice man is a product of the NEC vote where many factors are dissected and scenarios analysed on one-to-one basis in the best national and party interest.Zambia is too voletile and diverse a nation too dangerous to make trials one.You need a seasoned dynamic despute resolutions person with proven background of building bridges across territories to piece it up factions.Madam cannot do that besides her none existing background.Get inside and learn some classified decision wives never come to learn about.

  34. What kind of glaring ignorance and disrepect to thinking Zambians does this minister show?

    Perhaps the honorable minister ought to be reminded that proximity to power does not necessary make one qualified to hold that power.
    May be the minister’s maids/househelpers could as well take over his job. Truly, ignorance sometimes sings openly!

  35. “as a way of honoring her late husband’s vision”. If we choose presidents based on who their spouses were, we will never get to the bottom of our problems. This is not a monarchy. There are alot of educated Zambians out there. Sheesh!

  36. #43 THIS FORUM IS FOR PEOPLE WITH BRAINS SO I SUGGEST U GO SLEEP!!!! ITS PEOPLE LIKE U WHO VOTE BLINDLY..YES THE LADY HAS LOST HER HUSBAND BUT LETS GET BACK TO REALITY, THE NATION NEEDS A PRESIDO AND THE BEST THINK U CAN COME UP WITH IS SUPPORT MOLEEN 4 PRESIDO? SCHOPET VERY STUPID U ACTUALLY MAKING ME MAD I WISH I COULD PIMP SLAP YO STUPID ASS RIGHT NOW!!!

  37. He just wanted to be heard as having said something…chibombamilimo is just doing what his name implies…THATS ALL ! I think even the time we have spent on the subject ,in terms of all the comments so far is far more than the man deserves.

  38. I think it would be wrong timing for Maureen to stand now. My advise to her is that she should finish her mourning first and then give her self another some time to sell herself to Zambians. I dont think Zambians are saying no to a Woman President. But the time for Maureen is not now. Iam based in one of the very rural Zambian places her Organisation does not exist. OMUCHEMBELE SANGUNA KULIBAMBILA First before you attemt.

  39. let the woman mourn the husband,ba chibombambamilimo what is wrong with you.intambi shili kwi?muli bantu abakalamba you should think before you talk.

  40. WHO IS THIS SILLY SILLY MAN?HE SHOULD JUST SIT DOWN AND CLOSE HIS MOUTH.OH MY GOD THAT WOMAN,JUST THE THOUGHT OF IT MAKES ME SICK

  41. #43. There is nothing wrong with Maureen standing, so why can’t she say it her self? It is a free country after all.

    Our problem here is that Chibobamilimo the person sugessting, what criteria is he basing his argument on? Just coz Levy gave him a job? She is where she is as a wife and not politician.

    Fools like you should team up with Chibomba and and Muareen and make your own party. Right now you and ChiboMba sound so stupid to be honest it is not even funny!!

  42. #64,you are right!!in MMD we now have comedians(jokers) not politicians!!!! actually its the stupist joke of the year and it can even win awards in that category!!!!

  43. Chibombamilimo is dog…you foolish fool. you think Zambia belongs to you? dont tempt me to insult on this forumn ok. we are tired of chaps like you without brains!!!!

  44. If Chibombamilimo does not curve in by September 4th i will give out the NEC choice who symbolically they are voting on the 5th.Maybe we can make realise that NEC mean business with the future of this country and MMD.NEC is not an appeasement machine for dangerous causes.

  45. Zambia is not ready for a woman president. If they make a mistake of going ahead with maureen, their exit will be certain MMD kuyabebe.

  46. HONESTLY I WOULD EXPECT THIS FROM A KAPONYA, NOT A MINISTER..AND FOR YO OWN INFORMATION BA KAPONYA NABA TEKANYA WE HAVE NOT HEARD ANY STUPIDITY FROM THEM.. BUT MORE NONSENCE FROM CABINET SURE!!! WHAT A SHAME!!!!!

  47. I WOULD RATHER PAY $10 TO LT THAN POST PANTU LT TALALA..THANX 4 THE UPDATES MHWE….EVERY 2 HOURS BREAKING NEWS…..

  48. I can’t believe we still have such people like Chibombamilimo & #43 (godwin mutinta) in Zambia. This has nothing to do solely with the level of education – “na mano yachi fyalilwa”.
    God help our mother Nation

  49. Atase pa Zed what is this now.Was this the idea behind not chosing successor to LPM so that she could impose herself.

  50. Pragmatist

    I have tried several times to fully understand what you write about but i usually have a partial clue. I recognise the English words quite alright but they are usually misplaced, disjointed or misapplied. Kindly improve your writting skills so that we can enjoy your contributions since your blogging rate is very high.

  51. Where did this piece of gabbage come from?

    This guy is really nut case fit to be in Chainama metal hospital and not in a public office.

  52. What kinda Goat is this Chibombamilimo? His fantasies are rather strange. Chibombamilimo, will you shut up your bic & be sensible right. Ichimutwe;;

  53. People of Zambia, one thing for sure is that Chibombamilimo wants a higher position in the govt. Hes wife is actually maureens sister and thats the reason y hes protecting his own interest.

  54. Just because you spend nights in the same bed with your spouse and every now and then he tells you how hard his day was doesn’t mean you share the same vision. Chibombamilimo, I know you are worried about your job but you are licking the wrong boot.

  55. So she decided to have the body of her husband paraded around as a campaign ploy and have the fool TA-bombamilimo to chorus for her election shame! Zambians are not as ignorant as you think sorry Maureen and TA-bombamilimo!

  56. I think these guys think our country should be taken for granted. We appreciate the work done by LPM but it should not be used as basis for Muareen’s aspirations. Let her mourn her husband with dignity.

  57. This is all nonsense. Ba Minister please think maturely not childishly. Moreover her husband is not buried yet, she has to be given chance to more, Bwana Minister are an African of Zambia?

    If you, MMD guys want her to stand for presidence, of course not this bye election, it a tamboo, let her try her luck in the years to come, hoping that it will to lead to the downfall of MMD party.

  58. My advice to all zambian politicians is, be at easy 3 months is not far would you believe that LPM.SC had already ruled this Nation for 6 to 7 years and yet it just looks like he came into office yesterday. practice a bit of patience cause the truth is that weather we like it or not, one of you will be president to laed us all the way to the next elections in 2011.
    Be cautious with certain centiments you alter as aspiring president they may just make you loose a chance to lead this Nation.
    Lets do justice to our beloved president. M.H.S.R.I.P

  59. Chibombamilimo, isn’t this the guy who rubbished Chituwo and then two days later LPM was announced dead. Anyway this guy is a serious boot licker and has a well known brown tongue, he is scared stiff of his job. By the way latest, Magande has applied for adoption and Katele is not applying and I hope Magande is nominated so that he can sort out these funny chaps like Chibombamilimo who has had problems working with Sikasote the MMD provincial chairman.

  60. ino andinye inga mwatukola a matusi,ino mundaambila kuti zenzizyo zyobamwiisha mumaanda momuzwa?.amundaambile.

  61. very ridiculous comments. These guys want to safe guard their jobs. Being a former first lady doe not give Maureen any qualities to be president. I hope the minister was only joking as we do not need such statements at this time of mourning. Let us mourn and bury ba Levy with dignity and then see the way forward.

  62. We know Chibombamiimo wants to enjoy the terminal benefits with the Mwanawasa family. No sensable person can be spitting what he is. Just forgive the bugger and lets debate real issues surrounding LPM’s funeral and the political situation after; such as Sata’s following of the corpse, Magade and Chituwo declaring their interest

  63. Come on LT, this can not be the leading headline today, tomorrow or ever!! Relegate it to where it belongs….

  64. Chibombamilimo is a sucker,cheap and lacks a vision he is heartless for the people of zed.Has he ever gone to school before i doubt!!!!!Abash MOLENI

  65. These are the people who have been your leaders. No wonder we are where we are today. This ***** knows that his job is finished and he wants to do everything possible to maintain or find a new job. Just go and start parking as rightly put by someone.

  66. with all this rubish slowly finding a very fertile environment to prevail.Other sensible nations are now looking down on us….shameful leaders…graduates TULEYENI TUSHYE IFIPUBA MU POWER…we ll go for good mwanya,you think you can take all zambians for granted, well NOT GRADUATES and the enlightened.TWAYA BA PUSHI

  67. This is utter rubbish. Please God save us from impombo and all of these stupid and foolish leaders who can’t see beyond their own stomachs. What is MMCI? A charity that had clout because of association with state house. It’s seeming success is equal to extortion by the govt of those who needed to buy good will. A fool is thought wise if he/she keeps the mouth shut. Some people should not be allowed to speak at all.

  68. But in mmd there jokers/comedians indeed, chi Mbita AU Gaddafi is also busy campaign for Mr Mumps RBanda for presdo!

  69. chibombamilimo you look like an imbecile and mentally retarded big foolish man with trickery swine manners. how can you support former first lady. niwe ulefwaya ukupyana ba levy.

    ifyabupuba we mbwa we.

    wabipa akamutwe ngo mwanakashi icipuba. please people forgive for my words i am really hate by this stupid man.

  70. Why do we have such guys in leadership? i have problems understanding their thinking! LPM was an exception. LIP Levy.

  71. Northern province Minister should either Shut up or talk about the weather.

    I feel sorry for his children coz they must be ashamed at their father’s statement.

    Somebody wash # 89’s mouth out with Parafin

  72. Why do we have such guys in leadership? i have problems understanding their thinking! LPM was an exception. RIP Levy.

  73. Chibomba Milimo u r bootlicking even when your boss is in the casket and very dead. You should have just kept quiet if u had nothing sensible to talk about, Shame on you.

  74. chibombamabolo and mulubwa matufu are crap that woman can never rule us she is hopeless, sorry she lost the husband though. these guys have no brains Zambia is not for pleasing individuals out of sympathy. ubupuba!

  75. hey guys, wats this all talk about,we ba pa zd are good and displined pipo,we have been without a president for a long time now,so inshi mwamba okuba in panic.lets chill ma men.

  76. If Zambians can vote for Maureen , I will be the most dissaipointed person in our country. She has no quilities . She is suppose to remian at the funeral house & not to be moving with the body . Lameck JUST SIT DOWN stop begining her spokes person

  77. ALRIGHT I CAN TELL YOU I DID HAVE MY DOUBTS BUT AM NOW CERTAIN THAT GOOD OLD MAUREEN “ESCORTING” LPM’S BODY IS HER CAMPAIGNING..GEE WHAT A WAY TO CAMPAIGN…USING YOUR HUSBAND’S DEAD BODY..

  78. #106 you wonder who was behind his appointment, I think Maureen should have ensured this parrot was put in Northern Province as Minister.

  79. No 43 read your cards nicely, the lady studied law at state house and the time she was writing her exams ZIALE recorede a leakage why. No genuine results

  80. This man is now showing his highest levels of dullness. If you could check on my previous bloggs about this man then you will notice that I have warned about this dull teacher from Matero Girls. Yaba……….some people can be so shallow minded.

    Shame on Chibombamilimo!

  81. Ba mayo, remember your God. You where babtised but excomunicated, it is not too late you can go back towork for your God. You can not just forget about the good things you where told. Forget about your God, bukafuma ukusebana sana. What do you you think about belonging to Jehavass witnesses? you will not loose anything. Go back to your Jehova.

  82. IF MAUREEN BECOMES PRESIDO,I WILL TAKE FIRST FLIGHT OUT OF ZAMBIA.
    NAIMWE SURE BA CHIBOMBAMILIMO NINSHI UKUTU SEBANYA KANSHI!

  83. #109. We understand the people’s concerns. It’s just that this poor and very dissapointing minister makes us wonder if he deserves to be our servant. His thinking is far way out of order and below our expectations of a minster of just a mere civil servant and he definately needs to visit the nearest hospital. I would never spoil my vote by voting for him or people he endorses.

  84. Chibombamilimo just wait for isambo lyamfwa for LPM you maybe given some MMD Tshirt,Otherwise that GRZ car is now a butterfly

  85. katwishi pa zed na po. Iwe chibomba, epoya pela amano apa. think for your country and not your job security. have some dignity

  86. Chibomba… is very dull, very very dull indeed. why should some continue bootlicking even the family of the late President???

    Next it will be his daughters to be presidents…what a reckless talk and an embarassement to the world??? Please lets grow up in our heads. How can you develop the Country with such felows who are just there to please their masters without nation’s interest??? Stupid…

  87. You can now tell the true colours of this woman, moreen, chibombamilimo,is a spokesperson 4 moreen, when sata was given marching orders yesterday almost everybody concluded that this woman is after the presidency, wait and see they will be drama in MMD,As she is is not the only one vying for the position.am sure this time around will be the final year 4 MMD. The family to levy must teach this woman a big lesson. Twakana ci woman.Naimwe bachibombamilimo don’t back anyhow, what of you, you can’t prmote yourself.

  88. Let the Hon Minister honour his master by mourning while working not altering words that injure other Zeds. A President will be found within Zambia under what circumstances because there is a vacancy.

  89. Bushe Moleen alapelako naya ma fontini ayapala Workerjobs(Chibombamilimo)pakweba ati bamulandileko ifi fintu?

  90. Ba maureen needs councelling,how can she be sleeping with D for Gods sakes,this woman is not a marriage material.Nibamulya fibi
    she should find something to do not to stand for Presido,balala naka chibombamilimo nomba why nakosapo ati she should stand for president.not mu zambia.

  91. MMD is finished guys! leadership crises! These are the same ministers who do not know what they are doing in government.They lack integrate and political insight. let bana chipo mourn her husband.I am sure she is also interested in the position thats why she has not yet issured a statement declining what these two chaps are saying. no leging this time! we are voting for change!

  92. MAUREEN WASNT BOTHERED WHEN SHE WAS TOLD THE MOURNING PERIOD HAD BEEN EXTENDED TO 21DAYS….WORD’S THAT SHE ACTUALLY GOT HERSELF 24 OUTFITS SPECIFICALLY FOR THE FUNERAL..AND NON OF THOSE INCLUDED OUR GOOD OLD CHITENGE MOST WOMEN WOULD WRAP THEMSELVES IN KU CHILILO

  93. # 89 wacth your language . A woman is very special , remember the woman kept us for nine months in her womb.Even if we shall not vote for Maureen , we should not insult her .Jesus loves you

  94. I suppose Mr Chibombamilimo was emotional and was hence not in control of his faculties.

    Maureen is quite able to be part of the national leadership (even at Presido). …but this time may not be appropriate for her to enter into full-time politics.

    Let’s give her time to mourn her husband in peace.

  95. Zambia is not a kingdom where members of one family are annointed to rule.Let her stand but she would’nt get my vote.

  96. We should read between the lines. I’m sure all those that are speaking have been advised as to what should be said. Dont just blame Lameck maybe Maureen is the one that instructed him to say what he said. Maureen is deadly we need to be careful and should not allow her to continue with her evil actions. I’m interested to know Maureen’s answer in this regard. If anyone was near her pls let us know her expression on the face at that time. Lameck just shut up,,, don’t you know what the constitution states???

  97. chibomba is a big fool i have never seen, he can’t even think about himself a man at his age sure ku sa pota mkazi it show he not aman enough he joined politics a long time ago up to now he has’nt achived anything he still wants someone to be his presido, this what i call politics without vision

  98. There is just something that is very wrong with the way our leaders manage our country. I have serious problems understanding why our african countries are as poor as they are…. yet we have the whole “host” of minerals and other things to make us better than we are. Hope Zambians can try and avoid partizan politics by looking at the country “as one Zambia and one Nation”. Let’s get out of this status of a ‘third world’ country- whatever it means, it hates!. We need to move a step further from where Levy has left us. Let’s vote wisely people in the coming b-elections!

  99. I hope Maureen will be sensible enough to tell Chibombamilimo to shut his trap! I’m sure she’s smart enough not to pull such a ‘daft’ move? Best bet for her is to support one of the cabinet chaps to be floated as MMD candidate & then later she can participate or be nominated as Minister or something. Lameck is a bootlicker who should never be taken seriously. If Maureen, goes ahead with this backward plan, she will lose all the goodwill that Zambians are showing during her hubby’s funeral. Bana Chipo, pls ‘aikona kuyitaya’…

  100. This woman is not cultured…she is not tired of staying with the dead body daily even from France??? Cant she take a rest at State House?? Who is going to welcome visitors or mourners who come to consol the family when she busy globe trotting with the dead. Shame on you madm first Lady…

    You better let the childred at least rest at Home. You have heart for Kids and your dead husband.

  101. What is this nonsence of taking the corpse on TOUR?
    Have these guys considered the weather, the heat, and the smell which will soon start coming out of the body.

    Where is the evironmental council of zambia, on this issue?

  102. useless and stupidity at the same time, who the hell does she think she is? Zambia is not an organization for HIV and AIDS.

  103. if she was cheating on her hubby, i guess she is not mourning but campaigning.
    too bad for levy, hope he died not knowing she was cheating on him. some women as just heartless

  104. Iwe Chibombachipuba. Bushe niwebo Dan Pule? Nau kwata agenda na Moreen? Walepembela LPM ukufwa? You should be embarassed by the behaviour of your Widow who you say should be president. We don’t need this madness. Namayo ulelosha abalume should show remose that she is moorning and not be cantankarous. Is this the way Chibombachipuba wasnts us to be ruled. If i may ask, have we run short of leadership that we should be given INKAKA?
    Close your foul mouths we chipuba. You should pick her as your concubibene if you want her to rule you.

  105. You see ootu tuntu ntuunga ba #89 tuyeeya kuti ntotucizi matusi tulike.Swe tulalula. Lino ngaaya: abamuleke Moleen ayime akalibonene cakasalazya kwale.Alimwi uusya nsoni ooyu mwana.Ngu mukamufu cila tondwa muciindi ncalila mufu kulabalika.Che!

  106. thats nosense,,have we run shot of learders,it wont just show respect to the nation and mwanawasa’s relatives to have her stand as president barely a month b4 the husband died,what wrong with african politics.chibombamilimo shud get a life and.

  107. I agree with you #36 when you say she is a heartless creature. Can you imagine a first lady and the picture she portrayed by chasing sata from the late president’s funeral. As if she is not mourning.

  108. Chibombamilimo is just a puppet, Shallow minded, Dirty mouth with cheap politics……..….Mwalasanshapo Mwe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  109. #138 Ba Chiko There is nothing wrong with supporting a woman. Women can perform just as good as men can. Look at Sirleaf Johnson and how she is transforming her nation. She has done a lot of good for that country.

    That said ba mama ba maureen iyo! First she allows the body of her husband to be used as a campaign tool…cant shut her mouth(chasing people ku malilo)…and lets not forget she failed to advise her husband not to stand for a second term even tho he was unwell maybe even pushed him to stand.

    Let her concentrate on her outfits yaku malilo!

  110. But why mrs Mwanawasa, when did she become a politician.Best 4
    her is mourn 1st ,bury & get pension 4 late hubby period.
    Late politicians sort themselves out.
    May god deliver her.

  111. EVERY ZAMBIAN SING WITH ME!!!!

    “kanshi gelo ofo wabaso?*2 …..Maureen says “bizzness ni fast fast my dear kutiwafya na idea!!!!!! lmao hahahahaha

    Zambian say ” maureen ni whe bizness lady!!! hahahahahahha

  112. #43 what are the procedures for some one to aspire as a president in MMD? The late LPM believed in the rule of law. Why should this lady jump all the rules and qualifies to the position of the presido minus following down the MMD constitution just becouse she is a widow to the late presido.

  113. Zambian people please stop discussing Maureen, she is not in anyway suitable to be president. Chibomba is a lunatic just like those seconding him. Mulongoti be careful with your comments on Mr Sata, be objective, follow what Maureen told Mr Sata. Was there any logic in that? Cabinet Minister, you are running the country it is not sympathy to Maureen a serious prosititute.

  114. #151. My wife and I were shocked when we read that she had chased Sata. Am very independent of Zambian politics and my understanding is that we unite more in sorrows and grief. I was shocked to learn of this poor widow’s heartless behaviour. I would think she would be the last one to chase Sata but to my surprise. She is doomed if thats true!

  115. Ama leaders bapa Zed Shame on you!! heavily compromised and corrupted chaps.

    Honourable what motivates you 4 you to sink so low!!!

    Abash opportunists

  116. Gentlemen, Ba Chibombamilimo is an ass licker and not a boot licker. I wonder what goes into his mind honestly. Infact he is Chibombakonaula. Shame on Maureen if this is her campagning strategy. It will never work. I saw Dr. Nevers Mumba doing the body viewing of LPM in Kasama on TV. Why wasn’t he chased? Because he did the body viewing here in Lusaka as well. I think there is something personal between Maureen and Sata and thats not the way to go.

  117. Remember what Kafupi said about being president-power is sweet.This woman is not going to let go easily.She’s a disgrace to the legal profession.Anyway I am not surprised that there were some cheating involved to which organisations like LAZ have turned a blind eye.
    She is a disgrace to the womenfolk of Zambia too.

  118. Maureen Who for president?? Lets be serious, please take a leaf from other first ladies who have lost their husbands.

    I would rather Zambia is colonised than have Maureen for president. The capital city will move to Chibombo in her tenure. She will have bootlickers like Chimbombamilimo (His name speaks for itself) at her side. Zambia will be another Zimbabwe.

    No, no Lameck, Maureen is not presidential material. Not in this lifetime. Is this the end of MMD?

  119. Natalie #147, who told you the woman was cheating on her hubby? Why playa hatin’ on a fellow woman? Let’s hold our fire until we hear her side of the stroy regarding standing for President. I personally wouldn’t endorse her, but pls hold your fire mwebantu!!!

  120. ifyabupubafye, now my words yesterday have been justified when i said maureen was campgning. This is utter Bulls**t

  121. Please dont blame chibombamilimo, he is just a messenger for Maureen. This widow has always haboured presidential ambitions; it looks like 2011 become to far for her, someone should ask her what she did to Levy to pave the way for her presidential ambitions. I hear they had a mother of all fights the day before Levy had a stroke (pliz dont quote me, just some rumour).Now she is busy using his body to sell herself to zambians in the countryside. Where in the world did a widow ever fly her hubby’s body from town to town alone. She couldnt even allow Levy’s relatives to come along. There is a lot more strange things to come from this widow, just watch this space

  122. #162 I totally agreed with you. Nevers was not chased,why? Maureen has made a serious mistake. She’s too strong to be a widow

  123. Sometimes i get an impression that Chibombamilimo lusts over this woman. What qualities does he always talk about, what has maureens ever done in her life other than being a wife to Levy. He shouldn’t push her into the rabid hyenas den, she ‘ll get terribly bruised, its no childs play. Please let the woman mourn her late husband in peace, at least shes seen the inside of Nkwanzi house for good seven years. If i were him i would be thinking of what to do next because whoever would be President might not keep him in parliament as nominated MP.

  124. the picture above doesnt portray a mourning person rather a sympathizer and not a widow. shame on this lady called mrs mwanawasa. i hope the insinuations about her being eaten by darlington are not true. if they are, why was LPM condoning it? this is the problem of lebnje women, they are mostly adulterous women and very few are an exception

  125. okay Ine chilekalipa sanaaa…, katwishi mwebashala? Cant that woman just mourn her dead husband in dignity and honor!

  126. #35 Ba Annonymous muli bakali bakaamba.I like yo STCHOPET. Yes,it is a culture of bootlicking in their heads.So I agree with you, they are STCHOPET.

  127. the man is a clown,the day that woman becomes presdient is the day i know zamba has fnished.what has she done for zambia,dont you have to be a member of mmd to contest

  128. #56,u are as dangerous as maureen mwanawasa who is behind the loss of our president.Because of her love of being the first lady she forced the then no feeling well LPM to continue as president.I am prety sure this tearless woman gave our beloved LPM conditions in the bedroom to stand or…She misbebaved with Arthur,Darlington and here you are again supporting her to starting misbehaving with world leaders when she goes for summits,no ways.iwe chi chibombamilmo natwishiba ulefwaya inchito,woooh naipwa!

  129. Pipo, LPM is gone and you will agree with me that we will begin to see the manifestation of evil from the so called government officials. I believe we will also begin to hear issues concerning LPM’s bedroom affairs and the like. Remember what happened after Chiluba left office? Corruption cases came out. And so, even LPM was fighting corruption you will discover that he may have been the most corrupt person.

  130. BIggie 78. these are not english lessons and mind u this is not britain its ZAMBIA and english is not our 1st language, so keep yr genius to yrself. dont sicken us with yr spelling corrections its too early plizzzzzzzz. contribute on sensible issues at hand.

  131. Its realy shameful to see that most of you people who claim to know intambi and claim to be Christians,make such bitter comments. If you are realy a beter person than Maureen, how come you cant leave her alone to mourn her late hubby. LEAVE HER ALONE. And careful that you are not judged some day for oppressing a widow, because each of us will stand before Him. Cheap politics…Hypocrites

  132. Ba Maureen, Kanshi that is why she cant even wear a chitenge as she flies pooor levy’s body from one district to another. Kanshi ni campaign strategy? Yeeeeeeh ba widow aba? Im embarassed on her behalf, I really am. But come to think of it I have even seen her drop one tear she she brought Levy’s body back? Too scared to mess up her make-up and her presidential ambitions?? I feel so sad for Levy, she must have tortured him in life. And now she is torturing him in death.

  133. 03/07/2008 Levy is Dead oh sorry he is in ICU

    Body arriving on Sunday 24/08/2008 oh sorry it will arrive on saturday 23/08/2008

    national mourning 7 days oh sorry it is now 21 days

    Body viewing starts on saturday oh sorry it will start on sunday

    Body viewing will run from 08am to 5pm oh or it run upto 6pm in Lusaka.

    Burial will take place in Palabana oh sorry it will take place in Lusaka Embassy Park.

    What else will be changed and why all these changes isn’t there anyone in charge? Where is RB?

    Is the picture above that of a grieving widow or it was taken before the demise of the Presido?

  134. uyu pushi mupuba sana ai!!!!! what the hell is he talking about “Let Mrs Mwanawasa take over as President”?? is he insane?? i concurr with #179 Zambian Patriot…he is a clown who clearly doesnt understand politics of MMD and Zambia…

  135. Gee! How can a woman who does not care about her children care for the nation. She has abandoned them to go trotting around with her hubby’s corpse. When I heard of the plan which is utterly disgusting, I never thoght she would follow. But alas she is also the usher. It is such a pity.

  136. The picture is of Maureen in Chipata yesterday during her “dear” husband’s body viewing. Grieving widow my foot!

  137. Ba Mayo Ba Maureen, Tefyo Tulila pa Zed.My dear lady Maureen you need prayers, sure baSata bakufukamina and you can not respect the old man.Did you truely love LPM? You should have ignored BaSata and requested that someone ask him to leave there after. That was the worst embarasment you portrayed in Chipata.Quick advice to Maureen forget about politics it’s not for you,you may need to consider another career.Nakulila talolesha pameso yabantu.

  138. this ***** of a man / minister is just exposing the window to all sorts of missiles and i hope she tells him to withdraw that silly statement …otherwise if she remains mute then we shall conclude the fool knows what he is saying…

  139. #56,u are as dangerous as maureen mwanawasa who is behind the loss of our president.Because of her love of being the first lady she forced the then no feeling well LPM to continue as president.I am prety sure this tearless woman gave our beloved LPM conditions in the bedroom to stand or…She misbebaved with Arthur,Darlington and here you are again supporting her to starting misbehaving with world leaders when she goes for summits,no ways.iwe chi chibombamilmo natwishiba ulefwaya inchito,woooh naipwa!we chanakashiwe instead of people consoling her,she is the one busy consoling our cultured women who are mourning our president.

  140. #185 Simpson we are only calling a spade a spade.Who do you think is mistreating another here the widow or the mourner (Maureen vs Sata).
    Anyway for me she reminds me of JEZEBEL a very manipulative and controlling woman.

  141. Iwe ka Chibombamilimo,what really is your problem?what do you think you are getting to?you are just a ka nyandule ka Lameck.Maureen should stay out of public domain for about 2 years or so…she needs time to reflect and recuperate if at all she doesn’t go after other men…find something importatnt Lameck to do or say..remove your wig and get a male voice..

  142. lameck is a sucker and boing father..he only comes home once evry week..womaniser and am sure he’s after MM…so that he gets into state house.

  143. 192, stop the silly traditions, you want her to be rolling on the ground? Levy is gone. Mourning does not mean having a sour face. In fact, Maureem knew for two months that Levy was going to die, saw she was prepared for it. I think she is a strong woman despite her short comings. As for Chibombamilimo, the name says it all-The one who is working!!!

  144. lameck is a sucker and boring father..he only comes home once evry week..womaniser and am sure he’s after MM…so that he gets into state house.

  145. It’s really disgusting reading such sentiments from chibombamilimo! Does this man really think Maureen is capable of running this country even if we know she was the De Facto president. This bootlicker knows he has nothing left for him now and all he can do is ukusabaila like everyone is doing in MMD. This is why we say MMD has no calibre people to stand for president thats why ba mambala are just yapping now. MMD is full of crap people that even LPM himself did not trust thats why at some point he was appointing Ministers from the Oppositions. That clearly showed that MMD has no credible people to lead this country. Maureen must concetrate on looking after abena Lubono bachili abaiche.

  146. Its sad and we cant keep on saying lets leave every thing in the hands of God because also God helps those who help them selves.So as Zambians we sould ensure that joker MPs are out of Gov.and that we elect proper leaders for the future.This is the time.

  147. people please, when leaving comments make sure you understand what you are saying. LT is meant for constructive comments and not empty ones. they say even a fool can be considered wise if he keeps his mouth shut…….comment about what you have enough information about. please no hard feelings

  148. Zambians lets be sensible, if we continue having people speaking like that, we are headed for doom. Why dont we choose leaders we can be proud of? Is there no spam filter for sentiments like that of chibombamilimo and Mulubwa? Their sentiments are definately trash!

  149. #187 shakasali or sorry shakafuswa ali mutoilet alenya nalwa la pwetete.kabili ubu ule bwa mumulopa.he was telling the nation what they do to women as ministers and i would not be surprised to hear that maureen was one of them been slaugthered on the menu.honestly this maureen has no heart of a mother but that of a prostitute.i feel pity for mulongoti neyi batila ati impombo yamwefu.

  150. Now I know why that widow chased away Mr Sata. She had already been assured that she would take over. Hence her authority. What a shame

  151. Leave her alone. Why should she be condemned for someone else’s comments. Until she has spoken no one knows whether she wants to stand.

  152. l think muareen was absolutely right to accuse the big man(ba sata).we zambian, must gaurd agnaist chances.

  153. What kind of a president will Maureen make if she is able to behave like the way she did in Chipata. What presidential qualities are these. Who said that just because your husband was a president then when he dies you as a wife has to take over and then when Maureen dies her son or daughter takes over. Come on people grow up.

  154. #185 simpson!!! lets not try to justify actions which are not called for!!! she has children who need her more at this time to comfort them but we see the contrary!!! if she was really mourning she was supposed to be at the main funeral house with the family members instead of getting involved in the politicians thing!!!

  155. #439, we all know about Darlington’s charades with ba first widow which started way back when he used to work for Levy and company and he used to write all her asignments for her. When the two of them became careless about their love/sex-affair at statehouse, the Post was on the verge of breaking out the scandal but govt machinery took care of that. Levy couldnt fire darlington because that in itself would have just fuelled the rumours that were already going round about Maureen and Darlington

  156. l think muareen was absolutely right to accuse the big man(ba sata).we zambian, must gaurd agnaist chancers.

  157. Number 43-there is no experience garnered from ones husband that would “qualify”a whole entire presidential candidate. Come on man, how many GRADUATES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PILLOW TALK DO YOU KNOW??????????????? Just because I sleep with a Doctor does not make me a surgeon!

  158. They think its their country. Lets show them that we just appointed them fools. Time to go has come. we are once again in charge- Voting

  159. I think we as Zambians deserve better. IYEE!!! Ba Chibombamilimo, AND WE CALL YOU A ‘LEADER’? what exactly are you trying to portray before you lead us astray? People pliz lets seriously scrutinize these so called politicians before voting for them. Ndiye boot licking yamene ba kamba banthu iyi.

  160. #206 i agree. Some of the comments on this blog are worse than those of the same character they are castigating. I hope this is not an indication of what type of leaders we are doomed to have in 2016 or 2021! Muchinje!

  161. ZAMBIA YOU REMIND OF SOME PEOPLE WHO WOULD MARRY SOMEONE OUT OF PITTY, THEN YOU LIVE TO REGREAT THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.

  162. l think muareen was absolutely right to exccuse the big man(ba sata).we zambian, must gaurd agnaist chancers.

  163. I feel sorry for Patrick and Mirriam, Levy’s children from the first marriage, one is is mentioning the them, since they are in the 30’s they must have been the ones accompaning the body with Maureen. I hope Levy left a will, because Maureen looks like she can take everything.

  164. What is sad about all this is that people are looking at sympathy than what is right for the country. Presidency is not a reward for having been someone’s wife. Maureen is free to stand as anyone else, but should she be foisted upon the party? She should make her intentions known rather that vicariously doing it through Chibombamilimo. Sympathy should not be the yardstick, rather, it should be what one can do for the country. Personally, there is nothing in Maureen’s record that shows that she can make any positive change. She is a divisive element. When we will stop bootlicking?

  165. i have seen the first lady’s photos. she doesnt look like someone who as lost a husband. i dont agree with the ministers. why should she lead zambia. i you saying the is nobody in zambia to lead us. please we need a leader who will care for the people of zambia not only her family members. look at the staff at state house, they are all her family members. this is time for us to think and pray for a leader. Bayo ba maureen you have lost a husband. sitdown and mourn him if you really loved him. you wouldnt even think of been a president.mmd must go. if the is nobody to be president, than we might as well have kk back.

  166. Zed is not a Monarch and we are not short of leaders. SATA has on foot in state house already whether you like the idea or not and that is how life goes.

  167. #182, Lady Cherry,

    Thank you for your observation. I’m not a genius, sorry if i implied that in my contribution. Secondly, i did not say anything about spellings, i wonder where you got that from. Thirdly i know English is not our first language, its unfortunate that it is our official language. My point was on clarity. Whether you are writting in English or Zambian language with or without spelling errors, clarity of ideas is important otherwise you are not going to communicate. The whole essence of this site is to share ideas and educate each other.

  168. Nonsense. What a foolish man this one is. Mareen is nepotist No. 1. MMCI is fool of her relatives. The first thing she might if she was to get into power would be to give the MMCI chaps cabinet Jobs and Chibombamilimo can only survive if he is married to one of her blood relatives.

    That woman is evil and immoral. Zambians are not dull people. Chibombamilimo must know that its time to go.

  169. Moleen for President:Just imagine the favuors she will get for Zed.Nkongole zyoonse cancelled.Ma gift mbwee.Mali/ mane plenty from tuma president twaku Europe,America na Asia and koonse koose twame tuzu yamba kufuna Moleen.Especially aka smaila so ma Dollar Ku Zed ni kwacha mwana. Tumupaseko chabe iyi three years> Tuzadya bwino bane.

  170. If I say something about you are you going to be insulted for what you have not said? Please let us be sensible and not attack Maureen she has not said anything yet. Please read “210”

  171. What a shame for the former first lady to be moving with a corpse of her husband all over the country. Is this one way of trying to gain sympathy from the would be electorate? Or worse still, is it another way of trying to help MMD decampaign opposition parties? Give other capable people chance to continue from where our dear president left. Don’t you think they are in a better position to see the play field clearly than those mourning? Maddam former first lady chill and mourn our leader peacefully, we love you. Be rational and wise up.As for chibombamilimo,its high time you stopped making noise becaue your voice is not even that attractive for the audience.Good luck to your new lifestyles.

  172. where is mirriam,patrick and chipokola?? Can someone tell the nation where these children of Mwanawasa are mourning the father from?? Pliz I need to know asap!!!

  173. Chibombamilimo is being used by that evil woman. He is a fool. Right now, instead of mourning her husband, she is using the province troting to show herself to the electorate. Thats why she had to chase Sata away – he was disturbing the plan.

    There is no way we can vote for promiscous and uncaring woman.

  174. No. 43. Please have a sense of intelligenc. You Maureen is far less as compared to Hilary. Hilary has vast experince, she is a Senator for NY, do you know what that means. Mausreen has only been at state house for 7 years, Vera is even more experinced.
    Maureen should concentrate on mourning her late husband and put her house in order, the children etc. she has more to worry and be concerned for her family than for Zambia.

  175. it seems to me most of the people here are outside the country you miss zed and want to contribute I would suggest you first ask people on the ground the mood there is different from what most of u foreigners are saying Everyone knows that if She stands Sata will finish her using the outdated traditional values in what should be modern zed

  176. 186. Lisa i agree with you totally,i too havent seen a tear from this widow..i can only imagine what good old levy patrick went through sharing a roof with this woman..RIP LPM.

  177. Which Zambia is maureen going to take over??? Chibombamilimo,I have no words to describe you. I pray that God give you your senses back. Do not look at your stomach but the nation. If thats what u are scheming, MMD will go with Levy at embassy park.

  178. Just when everybody thought political utterance will give it a rest in this sad period, chibombamilimo pulls everybody back in. Please we r in very sad period and what does chibombamilimo do, heap us with more saddness. it unbelivable the level of ignorance that a national leader in the name of chibomamilimo is exibiting.
    And this idea of flying the body around the country is just a political tactic for the mmd to draw sympathy from the voting public. sad,sad,sad.

  179. Hello Peace, hope you are not on the family tree. There is no smoke without fire.Ok, we are advising the so called advisors to stop if they have already started influencing her thought.She should not listen to them in Government because they have an agenda we all do not understand. Why should they trouble the dead? Have mercy and let the people mourn him from one position. Not airbourn then later on in different places in Zambia it is unheard of.

  180. Chibombamilimo You fool where are you from? Are you truly a Zambian? I doubt it, you must be from Zaire, am tired of gabbage like your sort, you should’nt even hold public office because I think you have the brains of a fish. Get a life.

  181. What is Chibombamilimo’s level of education. He needs to be told that the presidential seat cannot be inherited or assumed. Zambia is not a chiefdom or kingdom. What is wrong with some politicians? I hope he does read this page.

  182. Can’t Jezebel just stay and mourn at home as per our culture. I guess its too too much for her to start campaining for who ever is gonna be MMD Presido, and Chasing the old man from mourning the friend.

  183. Maureen has a democratic right to stand. Whether or not she can be elected is another matter.
    But for sure Chibombamilimo has been sponsored to make noise since he is an empty tin.

  184. 186, I don’t support you. The Zambian way of weeping loudly is crap. Maureen already shed many tears in France, when she knew he was not going to make it. I don’t support all she does but I admire her courage. Levy is gone, she must get over it and move on. In fact after 3 September, she will be out of the limelight.

  185. it is sad reading. What kind of nation will this be when elders whether man or woman who are suppose to lead by example are in the forefront doing all the rubbish. God help us.

  186. #256 if you think Maureen will be out of the limelight come 3rd sept then you are out of touch with reality my brother. We havent seen the last of ba first widow, just watch this space. Unfortunately for MMD, levy decided to keep the party’s money in his personal bank account at finance bank. And who holds the key to that money now that levy is gone? Why do you think big men in mmd are busy dancing around to maureen’s tune, been told off for not chasing sata, being told when and where the body should be viewed/buried? The woman has a strong hold on MMD right now. Dont write her off

  187. LT please tell your system to stop blocking me. Anyway, Chichibombamilimo which constitution are you reading? Walatusebanya kolokombwa iwe. Imwe bakalulu dont you know that MMCI is a scandal to unfold? MMCI if funded by tax payer’s money. Watch how is will dissappear now the big man is gonne.

  188. Its seem Chibomba ma jobs has some unfinished business with the ministry of education umu guyz tajoba.hes not thinking he keeps on sinking.

  189. What sort of rubbish is this from the so called Lameck Chibombamilimo? Do they think Zambia is a clan that must be ruled by families? Levy was himself wrong to exercise too much nepotism and he is quilt to have lead us to this leadership crisis. To suggest the wife of a President takes over the Presidency just like that is pure madness.

  190. Fellow bloggers, Hon Chibombamilimo’s utterances only go to show you what type of politicians we have in Zambia. Let blame the people who appointed them to these positions, because their greatest asset is the ability to lead such a vibrant nation from ignorance.
    He who stands for nothing will fall for anything. As for the Youths of this nation (those below 39), Karl Marx once said the youths of any nation must struggle to learn, because in the process of struggling to learn, they would have learned how to struggle.

  191. Ba mudala just concentrate on your lodge coz that will soon be your full time occupation.Ba Mulubwa you are equally dull no wonder smart Levy couldnt give you any position in his govt despite spending alot of money in 2006.Even the people of Matero could trust you and your beer.SHAME on you chaps.Maureen INCLUSIVE!!!!!!!! Actually to hell with you all.Dont spoil the good legency of LPM.

  192. It’s not surprising that despite being a lawyer,most positive comments & accolades accorded to late LEVY are on the economy & not rule of law, governance or good husbandry!

    Let’s call a spade a spade.

    It’s not Maureen, not Rupiah, not HH nor is it Sata who was behind the sucess we are attributing to Levy, its the people of Zambia who accepted & implemented the economic policies proposed by MAGANDE who during his tenure has presented 5 national budgets.

    Let’s all be fair with this country, let us avoid mob psychology & let us ensure that the architect behind the sucess accorded to Levy Mwanawasa continues where the late President has left.

    Vote wisely.

  193. to hell with people like former first lady MM and chilomba milimo who think zambia is owned by them.naine nshakese pa zed nga mwabika maureen as president.its embarrassing for our democracy.zambia is not a monarch

  194. Tuma bloggers twa fake imwe:nimaloza kutukana mukamfwilwa.She has said anything at all for you to vent this vernom on her.Chibomba is just overzealous.He is what we call a self propelled munition! Now having Moleen for at plot 1 is not a bad idea.Compare Moleen to RB or Sata himself the ancient remains!It’s time for a woman to be on top for a change!

  195. Annonymus #4:I echo your sentiments. Zambia is no Monarch. Let not Chibombamilimo confuse his sympathy for the former first lady with critical National issues such as these. We are all deeply touched by our dear Presidents death but let us not cloud our judgement with such feelings of pity for Maureen (chibombamilimo’s utterances are bourne out of pity). Lets remember that we are looking to find a leader who sill steer this country 4wd like Levy did. It is NOT a family affair and my sentiments apply to all of Levy’s relatives in Cabinet.If those in cabinet are not inspired by what Levy accomplished, i wonder what kind of leader will succeed him…

  196. Hey…….what…? Maureen as a Presidential candidate for MMD in your dreams just think of someone else because that won’t work out.

  197. Are the other children of great LPM from the other marriage being given chance to mourn with the first family in the lime light or mama maureen alebachinga,i ve heard of Lawrence Mwanawasa i cant see the guy.Uyu mayo alishupa.

  198. Chibombamilimo is very dull. Zambia, lets do away with such leaders. Maureen served as First Lady and that was all. Forget about her.

  199. #258 LOVEMORE maureen need to be written off.she is not feet ,she may have the money but we need someone who can rule Zambia.Not some dictator,someone who has the heart for zambia.

  200. mulongoti should stop giving wrong statements about what happened in chipata between the widow and PF PRESIDENT SATA.

  201. Imwe no. 43 must be chibombamilimo’s wife disguising herself,too bad mama no job for your hubby<insasa kuchinjanya.hahaha….

  202. mulongoti should stop giving wrong statements about what happened in chipata between the heartless widow Maureen and PF PRESIDENT SATA. The widow is not good

  203. Shame on ba maureen.how dare she use her husbands corpse to gather sympathy for to pursue her evil ambitions.shameless woman indeed.takwaba,nshatala monako a widow having all this energy to fly around the country in the name of mourning.LPM belinged to zambians and not her alone so she should have just stayed in lsk with her kids and close relatives so that they mourn truthfully and not this fake public display we are seeing by her.shame indeed,the goverment too should also be serious,what powers does maureen have to be giving orders.Pliz she is a FORMER 1st Lady now nakalimo she is the CURRENT 1st Widow.they are just wasting money hosting her in hotels with her family as they fly around.

  204. It’s not Maureen, not Rupiah, not HH nor is it Sata who was behind the sucess we are attributing to Levy, its the people of Zambia who accepted & implemented the economic policies proposed by MAGANDE, which are now the basis of praise for LEVY!

    Let’s avoid mob psychology & let us ensure that the architect behind the sucess accorded to Levy Mwanawasa, MAGANDE, continues where the late President left.

  205. teta,chibomba,nevers are job seekers,or even mpombo wibilima.when i metioned something to do with maureen encouraging the hubby to go ahead with politics even when his healthy was at risk some bloggers called my opinion as baseless.women have become so dangerous that they can do anything to remain with wealthy.i liken her to that woman in the kalindula tune which goes like…..wapapisha ndola iwe we mwanakshi,apa pena mulume afwila mwalasangwa na mu fikulwa

  206. Ladies and Gentlemen, there are manyb things we cannot agree on as we have diverse views. This is common all over the world, no strange at all. Even professors, doctors, etc; people with brains differ on issues but they dont insult those with different views. Insults come when thinking comes to an end. So even as we express our views late us not show that our brains are not able to sustain a longer period of thinking by bursting into insults.
    An intellectual, rational, and logical expression of our views will be more meaningful in our discussions. when our brains fail to think but we still want to talk, normally it manifests into insults. So late there be times to speak & times to be quite

  207. just look at the picture of her honestly.she dasent look sorrowful,look behind that fake smile of hers mwebena zambia, do you see what i see? these chaps think twalisekela mo to be treated like we are so dull. we pay tax n they are the ones using our tax for tours that are for their personal and not national interest.shame indeed.that money can pay off 200 retirees who hav been waitin for their terminal benefits for a decade now.shame indeed.she shud jst return to lsk and mourn truth fully.looks like power aint just sweet but makes some people evil indeed.the 1st family is just a small bunch out of the millions of zambians who have a right to speak out when the tax they pay is being misused.

  208. at how!mauren open a beauty parlour and we will fully suport u.after the alangzy have done a good job on u.chibombamanamayo
    concetrate on being barberman.otherwise kuya belele infact akwalolo mwela you find mulongote and magande of being presiential jokers.

  209. Let me remind u zedians Prof Chirwa was told 2 start with the ward by the late LPM so whats special about Maureen. She was just a first lady not a politician.

  210. What an *****, and to make matters worse his actually a minister….these r the sort of pipo who just like to lick the boots of those in leadership.

  211. For your information just moments ago the Chiefs who attended the body viewing in Mansa say they do not want another by election and that they already have a capable leader in RP and he should continue until 2011 for the sake of unity and peace so basically that part of the country has already gone to the acting president

  212. The matter at hand is not a simple one and if we do injustice to the well being of our country posterity will judge our selves. DO IT RIGHT AND VOTE FOR A RIGHT CANDIDATE!

  213. I my opinion she has a big role to play as in who goes into state house but not herself being head of state thats why she is out there who ever comes out tops she will support and say this is the man to continue where my husband left off and thats the truth not all this rubbish that is taking people away freom the issue at hand of her standing.

  214. pa zed a lot of artists and dramatists in the name of presidential materials.lpm was cool,but the remainders awe sata ni zeee!

  215. Piccaso #217, you seem to talk confidently about Maureen’s alleged infidelity with Darlington Mwape? I’m quite skeptical about the whole saga, surely it would have come out in the open by now? If Chiluba couldn’t use state machinery to put the lid on Vera’s fling what makes you think Levy would succeed? Rumours pa Zed, even if Sata becomes Prsido, you’ll be saying his wife is ‘giving it up’! I don’t seem to understand the passionate hate of Maureen on this blog? She hasn’t announced anything yet (it’s just some bootlicking Minister) so bola panshi, ..atleast for now

  216. Let’s not judge the grieving widow so passionately when she hasn’t even said anything herself? All she did was to ask Cycle Mata not to politicise her hubby’s funeral, why all the venomous attacks?

  217. please zambians,it’s not time to compaign,let’s bury our leader in peace,that’s when we should think of who should be our president,chibombamilimo stop your dirty tricks.you mean their isn’t any compable leader for the party.

  218. We must be objective and not subjective as we discuss this issue.Key factors to look out for are the following:
    1. Vision 2030
    2. Fifth National Development Plan
    3. Foreign Direct Investment
    4. Inflation Rate
    5. Stability of the Economy
    6. Level of Economic Growth
    7. Good Governance
    8. Levels of Employment
    9. Curbing Corruption
    10. Morality
    We must all look out for how the new leader to lead this great country will handle this as we prepare for elections not just sympathy at an expense of masses and A LEADER IS ALREADY THERE!

  219. Maureen is not the material for Presidency. If the famous Hillary Clinton can fail to capture the seat in the Democratic run off for November 2008 elections what more of her who has never been a Constituent member

  220. I feel so bad when i read many irrational comments on this blog.We have so many good schools in Zambia but the reasoning & grammar used by most people on this blog is so appalling,it leaves one wondering whether we also have pimary school kids posting comments on the blog or is it just uneducated morons who really have no clue why & what they are typing,the number of insults & tribal remarks is just disturbing,maybe it’s high time Lusaka Times disabled their commeting facility?

  221. Mr. Chibombamilimo has just shown he’s an opportunist and a spanner amongst the works. The First Lady is grieveing I really doubt she would want to start campaigning, don’t you think!!! I doubt that, that is what she is thinking about even if she had any political aspirations.

    Honestly I wonder how some people get the ministerial positions when they talk absolute rubbush

  222. Ok Bloggers lets take a quick opinion poll and see who wins on this blog
    HH
    SATA
    Magande
    Maureen
    Miyanda
    Mutati = 1

    Add your votes and candidate names

  223. Why all this hostility against Mrs. Mwanawasa? Like one said, bloggers don’t necessarily reflect the opinnion on the ground, so why not let the people decide? If her cause is rightful, she will stand, if it’s not, then she will fall.
    What is to be must be. Those who walk by sight and not by faith will be surprised to find that they’re pushing against a solid mountain.

  224. As I already said earlier, insults come when thinking comes to an end. So even as we express our views let us not show that our brains are not able to analyse issues and discuss sobberly by bursting into insults.
    When our brains fail to think but we still want to talk, normally it manifests into insults.
    When you insult, you risk being viewed to be worse than those you condemn.
    Let us have an intellectual, rational, and logical discussion over all the issues we read here.
    It will be sad to learn that you are one of those who can’t just avoid insults.

  225. am very disappointed with ba maureen, as widow u r suposed to keep quite anyway i understand that u have no culture but and may u pliz behave like a widow & if u fail just try to pretend.u never know sata might be the next president may LPMrest in peace Amen

  226. mawe ndiye vichani ivo…maureen ruling zambia…..please she can even run her foundation effectively atase,we are a country not back yard garden please spare us that crap let the laddy go to the farm…

  227. All those talking about Maureen Mwanawasa becoming president are wasting their energy for nothing because Maureen will never become president.Bane We should not behave like people wih no brains We can not be talking about politics now We are still mourning our President until after burial

  228. our dear first lady,you over reacted.why didn’t you talk to your adviser before doing what you did,honest that just shows that even where you come from,you don’t consult.please find a way of apologising for your actions,twapapata

  229. Gentlemen, lets address this issue to the fullest! Why should we have a wife as a president, when she has not been a member of any political party, has not served in the mmd, has not held any post in the running of the current government. Is it just because she used to live with our honourable president? Far from it. She even goes ahead by chasing Micheal sata from mourning his duly elected president LPM Sc. LPM is now government property, and all zambian citizens are allowed to mourn him whether maureen is there or not! So tell her to piss off! Its about Our beloved president, not about her! she does not own him, or us or anything! let her mourn with dignity.

    Nonsense!

  230. I share the same views of Chibombamilimo. It is only Maureen who can carry out the dream of the late husband on behalf of Zambia. MMD currently has all ministers who are not credible, these are the guys who are busy awarding themselves heft perks just because Mwanawasa is no more. If MMD is to continue, I would rather it continues with Maureen as the new captain. The opposition are not currently needed in power as it will just cause confusion. MMD has the largest number of parliamentarians, if the opposition wins, it will have diffuiculties propelling development with a hostile parliament, especially a person like Sata who may end up being impeached by the MMD parlimentarians.

  231. #308 Zeddy, is this your first time to make that observation? That’s the sad truth we have to live with because, like very often in Zambia, everybody sees the dirt but nobody feels responsible to remove it.

  232. Nachibomba milimo. Where are your brains mudala? Think twice before you open your mouth. Like other bloggers have said, a widow or widower according to our tradition is suppose to mourn for a year and helped to feed by a mulamu and never to change clothes until after burial. One is not allowed to bath until after burial and all the untesils one used must be binned. Chibombamilimo, go back to your nan and be taught manners again on how to manage a widower. My prayer is with the Zedians back home to choose the right person to lead the nation.

  233. #308 Zeddy, is this your first time to observe that? That’s the sad truth we have to live with because, like very often in Zambia, everybody sees the dirt but nobody feels responsible to remove it.

  234. SIMPLE MINDS DISCUSS
    PEOPLE – CHIBOMBAMILIMO, MAUREEN

    AVERAGE MINDS DISCUSS
    EVENTS – FUNERAL

    GREAT MINDS DISCUSS
    IDEAS – WAY FORWARD

  235. There is nothing wrong with Maureen going for the Presidence, Zambia is not Congo Dr., monarch or family thing. she has to compete with everyone else, if thats what she wants. We want the best!!!

    Many of us actually about 1.5m Zambians, but we are looking for one in whom we see experience that gives us hope he will be able to deliver the country and all to economic prosperity. so we live better lives and stop being laughed at by other nations like what happened with the deligates to recent conference opened by His honour the VP@Mulungushi.

  236. let us leave all to God he already knows who will make the next president, God will always want the best for us & not the waste.this is the time we need to pray to God for guidance rather than discussing indviduals, this will soon come to pass. may God have mercy on us.
    rest in peace LPM we shall meet in glory

  237. Zambians we’r jokers! memory serves me well it is the pipo in rural areas who turned out to be deciders in the last elections.Hence,this funeral strategy by MMD is amid at the very pipo we depesse in rural areas who can’t see things the way we see them. A good question we are suppose to ask ourselfs guys ” Is Moleen’s (MMD) strategy working?

    looking at most comments Iam afriad we have just been addressing symptoms and not the cause of the problem. This crop of politicians is old and we need a big overhaul. Its time for youths to take centre stage. Viva! Viva ba youth!

  238. IT SEEMS AM THE ONLY ONE WITH IDEAS ‘PEOPLE’ AT LUSAKA TIMES ELECT ME TO EDIT SOME OF THESE TEXT WITHOUT SENSE. I HOPE U ARE HEARING!

  239. Yes Zeddy# 308 english is just a language we learnt its not our mother language. Take note like the way you have spelt the word commeting i understand what you meant. find a site where u will enjoy the perfect grammer boss.

  240. Where was Mulongoti in the last few days? He had hibernated for fear of being questioned why they never wanted to show us the picture of the late LPM in Paris.
    Infact Zaza was right when he broke the news that LPM is …, but due to politics, MMD kept denying. Even the brave man Dr Chituwo knew of the information, but Maureen stopped him from telling the nation the real facts. Right now, Maureen hates Chituwo for breaking the news in parliament.

    What type of woman is Maureen. Darl Mwape is rejoicing at the turn of events.

  241. #202, we are not saying that the woman should be rolling down in tears, all we are saying is that she should show some remorse and stop controlling and being manipulative. We don’t find it morally right for her to chase people from the funeral, that behaviour simply says alot about her.SHE CAN SAVE THE ROLLING ON THE GROUND FOR THE RIGHT TIME WHEN REALITY TAKES IT’S COURSE.

  242. kaunda had his hand broken by betty, chiluba was under pitcot government and nearly had his small brain sprashed over the wall and now we have a dead president whose cause of death is mistery. people let put in place in our constitution law to protect our leaders in the same way they are protected from public abuse.

  243. if anything you would have writeen LT to able the commenting facility not disable baba most pipo are educated pa site apa ka…..

  244. Chibombamilimo and mulubwa find work somewhere no jobs for you.Zwa kuya bebele!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Mrs Mwanawasa she will get paid gratuity then go to palabana and start farming or Join Mutembo nchito in prosecuting corrupt chaps.

  245. Baza payana…if Shaka Killed his brother when he was not annointed as successor to his late father..wat can be new from these MMD fools..

  246. #306. We have heard all those terms you mentioned before but the poverty is still going up. We are told inflation is one digit figure but I can’t see my life changing for the better. Fuel is still going up, mealie meal etc. So we don’t want those terms. We want to be taking home K20m like ministers not being told vision 2030 or whatevr you have said. Who knows if we will be there. Why can’t the ministers wait for vision 2030. Why are they in a hurry to give themselves money now and then they tell you to wait for 2030? Thats nonsense. We want money. I am a lecturer at UNZA and my colleagues, please don’t accept anything less than 100%. These guys have money which they can give themselves with

  247. zambians have a tendance of praising a person when he or she has gone before us. so pliz pipo if u have to praise me it better be now or else i dont need yo praise when i die

    anyone can challenege me on this

  248. If we stopped Chiluba in the third term bid. Who does MM think she is. She will just spoil Levy’s legacy. She is lucky we feel pitty for Levy but she should not take her lucky too far.

  249. Chibomba milimo is so useless, he has never impressed me with any of his statements, which he always has to read. He cant speak from his head. I wonder if those are his thoughts or he is a Kapaso

  250. It appears some people cannot live without insults – very sad indeed.
    They seem to enjoy insults more than other words.
    By far Chibombamilimo has better personality for he did not insult anyone.
    He simply made a democratic decision; and those who do not understand democracy resort to violence; such as insults.
    This reveals that many of us have a long way to go in understanding democracy.
    If you are a natural student, you can learn from this that most people who insult are most likely to support a leader who equally insults, because that is where their joy is found.
    Dont tell me that your view is an INSULT; share your view so we can learn from you.

  251. Its a shame that most of us here can talk loudest in a blog but when called to action we shy away. The parties will choose who will represent them us as individuals then have the chance to decide who we want so comment realistically and fairly without insulting anyone.
    I repaet my ealier thoughts on another topic i think ZAMBIANS ARE LAZY when it comes to hard work we like drama we let even the lazziest among us stand out because they talk the loudest. We have to be called all sorts of names before we can put our effort in it. Dont be lazy start working had you have to suffer to enjoy but for some of us in here we think the opposite is correct

  252. Thats the problem in Zed. It’s a lack of leadership but Chibombamilimo’s. The best way you can test leadership is if they can manage a crises with character and principle. But if you think Chibombamilimo is just one you are in for a rude shock. He is just 1% of the whole banch of MMD cadles you call leaders.
    VIVA Mwanawasa. He is gone and he was not a king to have wife succeed. The constitution is the policy of leadership succession in Zambia not sentiments of stupid people like Chibombamilimo. The problem is we call them leaders. No they are not. They are party caddles.

    besides when is Zambia ever going to elect a president than just getting an solicited gifts like Chiluba gave us Levy.

  253. But i am really disappointed by Maureen’s behaviour. Why is she travelling with her late husband’s body around Zambia. Is she mourning or campaning?? We are all aware that she is busy campaigning.How come she looks so strong and courageous.I saw her boarding the plane looking ndi,ndi, ndi……..No wonder she was busy studying for her MBA in France instead of nursing her late husband.This woman is……!!! Let her be nominated and MMD party president.No problem! We shall take her on as this will spell doom for MMD. She will be severe bruised. Maureen should have remained at state house than move around with her late husband’s body.Where is she getting the strenght from??? Uyu mwanakashi,iyo!

  254. Zambian we are jokers! If my memory serves me well it the pipo in rural areas who proved ” a deciding factor in last election” I appreciate most comments being made but the question remains and I quote ” Is MMD (moleen) acheiving its goal by using LPM’s body to get voters from rural area?

  255. It was good that Sata was chased away from Chipata. What id that devil looking for. Sata is an opportunist who wants to make a profit out of a loss. He now wants to cheat that he loved Mwanawasa when he is also partly to blame for the death of LPM. He is the one who used to put unnecessary pressure on the president time and again. Hes is even a good friend to Mugabe who also contributed much to the death of LPM. Sata should have been ashamed to even come near Maureen especially that he was even asking the doctors to certify whether Levy was fit or not. No wonder Saviour Chishimba describes Sata the right way. We are watching and taking note of this nonsense and election time Sata will lose.

  256. #351,Zambian’s talk the loudest because of poverty & suffering they go through.Bemba Proverb(Ululumbi lwa mulanda kukakata).Chibombamilimo has nothing to offer apart fom the usual cadreship.Everytime they been fights between him & Northen provincial chairman on who to greet the Late LPM.Now from such a person what can we expect????????

  257. pls mr minister spare us from this crap. zambia isnt a monarchy. why should Mrs Mwanawasa be made presdo?? out of sympathy or on what grounds??? time to be serious and stop this boot licking. the mwanawasa family did their part, some one must take over now.

  258. #350 Advice
    I agree with you its like they say you loss the will to reason if you react befor you think, birds of a fether flock together and so on

  259. According to the Post (Which I don’t trust) Magande has done his paper work to go for plot 1. So as Dr. Chituwo. Dr. Sondashi is another one. Dr Nevers Mumba is also very likely to stand under the MMD ticket. Has anybody held anything else because today is the deadline for MMD candidates to hand in their paper work? Has former first lady Maureen done her paper work or all this is just talk?

    Anyone with more info please share.

    LPM(MHSRIP) has died a politician, look at his funeral drama, I just hope he left a will for ALL his children.

  260. You always have to leave it to a Katangese to sink our politics to brand new gutless levels, if this is how things are done in Northern province, no wonder all they know is stealing and planting male genitals on pretty girls. Chibombamilimo, mwabombeni eeh! And just watch the Tongas, they will do the biggest acrobat of the century by switching to Magande since he has a bigger chance to win the next polls, they will abandon HH in tsunamic proportions, stinking tribalists. In my honest opinion, and I hate Tonga UPND skunks for what they did to Saki, I will vote for Magande.

  261. Maureen needs to concentrate on raising her children, especially that LPM is no more.

    Maureen too strong for her own good. Politics will finish you.

  262. #357.No a witch is not interested in bodyviewing,If Nevers Mumba & ministers viewed Twice,why can’t sata do the same.He has all viewing rights.

  263. Mwanawasa will always be remembered. despite any negatives u can site he was still good. But please emotions and Chibombamilimo’s stupidity are not qualities of a leader. But sorry he is just a picture of what u have in caddles you call leaders.

    Zambia wake up. We are not shot of leaders. We are a bright people and a proud nation. But we have to live with the Chibombamilimos. But get this “even a foolish person as potential to have followers”. So Chibombamilimo has followers to his statement. So it’s a banch of stupid people you call them leaders no they are opportunists. Anyway Mrs Levy is more inteligent than these caddles.

  264. Maureen failed to look after the president, how is she going to look after the whole country. The woman is power hungry and her main interest is to continue touring different countries in the world.

    Shame on you the former. The only true first lady we had was Mama Betty Kaunda.

  265. Even in a mornachy,the spouse do not take over,but the Child or Nephew who is next in throne chronology,so proposing Maureen it’s just another Third Term issue which more of MMD Cadre kind of life.Are we lacking leaders in zambia No!!!!!!!!!!not at all

  266. VIVA Maureen, let her take the helm of leadership. She has all it takes. It is good that Levy was not a king but a president, otherwise we should have looking for one of his sons of indeed his nephews to take over, but Levy was a president and Maureen qualifies to take over. Even the widower to Bhuto is now going for presidency in pakistan. There is really nothing wrong Maureen leading us.

  267. Mwanawasa will always be remembered. Despite any negatives u can site he was still good. But please emotions and Chibombamilimo’s stupidity are not qualities of a leader. But sorry he is just a picture of what u have in MMD caddles you call leaders.

    Zambia wake up. We are not shot of leaders. We are a bright people and a proud nation. But we have to live with the Chibombamilimos. But get this “even a foolish person has potential to have followers”. So Chibombamilimo has followers to his statement. So it’s a banch of stupid people you call them leaders, no they are opportunists. Anyway Mrs Levy is more inteligent than these caddles.

  268. vote for me,I have all the experience you are looking for.I keep Chickens,goats,Ducks,Birds and many more.Now am tired,am begging you please………..help me find a new Job.Vote for Me vote for Mwisho

  269. pipo should learn to do the correct thing for once.sata sould not have gone,even if it was a public thing knowing very well the rivery between the lady and him.we need economic drivers now and not creatures to just fill the vacancy.we need to be careful coz not even sat is gud material.we need to be very very careful.not every driver is a gud driver.let the widow do what she wills as we prepare for the elections.

  270. Maureen, shame on you uncultured woman. Yo roots as a secretary are really still firm and the fruit is seen clearly. All secretaries the same, sleeping around, murdering their spouses to gain income and for her we know what she did not get from Levy, SEX. This woman’s passion is animalish. Now she’s on tour to campaign. Twalakumona mayo, if you think Zambians are horses try riding them. WAWA!!! Tuli mubwato even if you chase away our Presido from you corpse hubby. Don’t think Lenjes are majority mu ZED. Only Chisamba will vote 4 U. No sympathy 4 nonsence.

  271. chibombamilimo pliz understand politics and this man should be checked well may be he has some hidden agenda’s with Maureen why has he insisted over maureen becoming next president.put maureen and i will never come to Zambia

  272. Magande is not Prez material. The guy struggled to win when he stood as Chilanga MP. His court case just ended in his favour of course when though the judge Mwanamwambwa was accused of favouring Magande when he gave out the petition judgement. This to me means that Magande is corrupt and manipulative and any body consindering this guy is waiting time and risking Zambia’s peace. Magande is arrogant and the man used to work for the IMF ploting on how to steal from poor people and giving all our wealth to the IMF/WB. We don’t need such kind of criminals. Magande is also tribal, he has been making funny comments about other tribes when he was just finance minister, what if he takes plot 1??

  273. Maureen failed to look after the president, how is she going to look after the whole country. The woman is power hungry and her main interest is to continue touring different countries in the world.

    Shame on you the former. The only true first lady we had was Mama Betty Kaunda.

  274. …am back after cooling down..#308, #311, these have been my sentiments too. now, to the suject matter. Well, its sad and it seems that its a plot in motion already. its to the detriment of mmd, and now the only choice seems to be HH. why? because if most of the leaders in MMD are proposing to field RB or MM, are these leaders with integrity? why dont we take a more claculated risk in HH than take a risk were you know you are bound to fail? am not even for HH but looking at the candidates available MMD is out of here

  275. In fact in June at a meeting with Ministers and Rupiah Banda, Mwanawasa proclaimed Magande as the frontrunner. Mulongoti should confirm this. Additionally, its known that Mwanawasa confided in Holmes, Chituwo and Masebo that Magande had qualities Mwanawasa liked.

    Believe me, the people fronting other candidates don’t mean well for Zambia.

    Find out from him on – [email protected].

  276. #306 you are right and i like your analysis and maturity in thinking. Actually the only person who can achieve what you have underlined is SATA.period! if you are thinking about someone then I am not your companion though i appreciate you maturity. stay blessed in the coming new government of PF the third party to rule.

  277. #228 I agree with you. Guys bushe Patrick Jr and Marriam have a chance to their father’s benefits with the likes of Morini???? Doubt it!!

  278. Magande is true friend of the Chinese. Come to CB pipo, brick moulders are Chinese, lashers at Chambishi are chinese, question is, Do they pay tax? Answer is NO. Heavy trucks passing through our roads, who pays 4 maintenance? You and me from our already bad income.

    How much is bus fare from Avondale to Town? How much was it in 2001? How much is a litre of fuel now? How much was it in 2001 when dollar was almost equivalent to K5000?
    Magande to hell!!! That man makes me sick. I feel like vomiting.

  279. I suspect the former first lady mourned Mwanawasa even 4 or 5 weeks ago. She looks too emotionless to be a widow, the rumor that LPM(MHSRIP) had passed on way before the Aug 19th official date could be true. Malone Zaza was very right. I just hope former first lady will give some of LPM’s wealth to his other children Mirriam and Patrick Jr. Patrick Jr. has been very good young man and I hope we will see him in the political arena in future in one way or the other.

  280. She has a right to travel with the body. If she remains you guys will accuse her of having gone shopping. Please give her a break. Its Chibombamilimo who has opened his mouth not her. Wait for her to speak.

  281. Plize Guys let maureen stand for Prez..this will be fun..she will loose like loosers do..That pride she has, even other women can’t stand her foolishness,than can men stand that?.Infact she should be charged for causing LPM’S Death, she knew very well that the HUSBAND was not fit, but becoz of power & all that comes with being PREZ ,she forced the guy and later no dead.Now look were the Husand has ended up to, carried all over the country like tourist thing.
    That lady needs serious help, she should be mourning her husband, not running accros the country trying to be prez….Can someone put some sense in that stupid lady’s head.

  282. The dead cannot cry out for justice; it is a duty of the living to do so for them.
    Lois McMaster Bujold, Diplomatic Immunity, 2002

    Pity those with ability could not do for LPM the one thing he strongly believed in. Can this abomination end soon, put his boby to rest!!!!!!!

  283. now this is what i saw coming when i made a comment on the article of sata being chased away in chipata.

    Please!! for everyone’s sake don’t let this happen!!

  284. Chibombamilimo the country is not materoa where you were clobbered by flating with someones wife and you liued that you were attacked by thieves who shot on you. Koma nikupusa uku. What
    favours are getting from maureen?

  285. bushe chibombamilimo mutundu nshi. Lets hope he doesn’t belong to any tribe in zambia coz fwe BABEMBA TWAMUKANA. if kapwepwe lives, he would have cut his head out for misleading people. chibombalimo, wasanga abakali balifwa.

  286. elders it is true. it is only the ikes of chibombamilimo who can vote for her and accomodated her stupidity but knowing how democarcy is. nifipuwa filavota and they can carry the day as long as they are in majority

  287. i agree with #394. chibombamilimo does not look like a zambian.
    Akapumi looks like a tazanian. i think ni mwacusa.

  288. #387 What do you mean that its Chimbo’s who has opened his mouth and not her? It is an open secret that she has haboured such ambitions from the time LPM was re-elected and now she is testing the waters again to win sympathy.

    If works as first lady are credentials for candiduture, then Vera must also throw her hat in the ring.

    She cannot be trusted to rule the nation with a fair hand, all her incompetent relations are almost running down the companies they are running – look at ZESCO.

  289. Guys lefts vote Katele, the dude will not be using the national coffers to fly around the world but magic. Mwalaba Chiengi technology. Katele, Dr in computer technology

  290. Zambian politics make me sick!!Better i find country where to live before we become zimbabwe no 2.
    ukubuta kwachila pa zed as if we don’t have people with brains!

  291. How can someone be thinking of politics,mourn and tour Zambia at the same time ( campaign )Mrs Mwanawasa no one will vote for you because you have lost a Husband. Zambians lets vote wisely.

  292. oh Chibombamilimo please reason with us that this nation is run on reality not compassion and potential,moreover,maureen needs time and space from the political arena so she recuperates from the great loss she has suffered.

  293. Did you watch the X-first lady boarding a military plane from Lusaka to Chipata on MUVI TV yesterday evening??? This woman definately has ambitions, she fancies salutes…

  294. maybe katele’s technology can help develope the sceince and technology in the country so that we improve our industries. we can be the first inthe world to own and develop the katele coonsortium of laptops even beating the microsoft champions

  295. This signifies desperation and kicks of a dying horse on the part of this MMD government. There are plenty of suitable Zambians who can take this country to higher heights, please Zambia wake up, lets put an end to the family tree.

  296. Zambian politics make me sick!!Better i find country where to live before we become zimbabwe no 2.
    ukubuta kwachila pa zed as if we don’t have people with brains!

  297. Is MAMA Betty Kaunda still alive, she needs to teach MM some manners of how to act as former first lady.

    State House must be haunted now, Tizaonaku maloza like never before.

  298. maureen gameover go to your farm rain reason is near .chibombamilimo please zip up now the MMD game is over and zambia game has just started it is reload

  299. Chibomba Milimo-Are you eying maureen after the funeral? Darlington M will screw you. he has been chewing Maureen from time in memorial.

    Maureen, if you want to be the next president, all i can say is wabe T……, telimbi li talent.

  300. that is why zed cannot develop we have leaders like chimbobamilimo in government.What utter nonsense,its absurd to think of maureen as our president.Politics of appeasement is the order of the day,do you think we can ever progress with so many job seekers. Shame on our stupid and an uneducated ministers.

  301. pliz zambians lets be very genorous with our country,of course mwanawasa is no more,maureen pliz be like a zambian woman who has lost a husband with dignity and then you behave like you just got married out of no remorse,just understand that MMD is dead and you chibombamilimo you do not know were you stand coz we wont vote out of sympaethy.no matter what our vote wil tell.relax maureen and your chibombamilimo,we are ready to vote you out of power.zambians wake up.

  302. As a Zambian, she has a right to be elected as President but not to be given as if Zambia is a Mornachy.

    Come one, Chibomba, we’re a country not a chiefdowm or kingdom. Why should only Maureen be given for free this Plot one?

    If MMD fields her and she wins that is another issue but cheap talk of just giving does not make sense.Even MMD needs to practice Democracy if the nation is to grow in this sphere.

  303. THIS IS A SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS! WHAT IS THE WAY FORWARD ZAMBIA. I THINK WE SHOULD JUST VOTE FOR***************************
    (FILL IN THE BLANKS)

  304. #396 you are right.This chibombamilimo should be probed.These are the chaps who are dragging this country backwards.

  305. Ba maureen can she lead us even her foundation she was too posh but the hope foundation was real vera went to shangombo and helped the poor. Maureen loves so much worldly pleasure that is why she pushed LPM to accepted the second term. Ba KK advise but she had no kind words for old man. So people let us vote for some one who will develop Zambia not Luxury seakers

  306. Can someone tell me who this compromise candidate the MMD have come up with that is supposedly receiving a lot of endorsements?

  307. The deadline for presdential applications has been moved from tomorrow to Friday. This was on lunch time news and quoted Katele Kalumba who further admitted that the succession process might cause divisions in the party. Friday happens to be the day Maureen will arrive back in Lusaka from her provincial tour..1+1=2

    Lelo kuleba ukubobana…naya amakula(mc.wabwino song)

  308. The Chap is a Homosexual, He had actually stayed with his boyfriend when He was studying. Many wondered weather it was because he had no money and therefor he sort refugee from that man. He even developed ladyish mannerisms which some can still be noticed up to to day.

  309. ba lusaka times….could you please update stories on a regular basis. Now have you seen….we are turning on you because there no stories to comment on.

  310. you know its good that mwanawasa him self stated one time that “ZAMBIANS 4 GET VERY EASILY”just after burial maureen you will be no more and just after the MMD’s choosing who will contest 4 the president,automatically you will see ranglez in the party coz we
    already know that they are two groups in in the party,the “NEW DEAL” of the late mwanawasa and that of the old one,and am anxiously waiting to see that.

  311. Where we have stepped in, MMD has never lost power politics but alway won.MMD with the choice man will win come what may we vow.But after winning, we will take it personal that Chibombamilimo is on the list of three others who will be permanently excluded from the future of MMD and emerging Zambian leadership.Time has come for our row of always driving winning campaigns to determine who should run. These off side talkers have never been the harms wasy of campaign design that has always delivered MMD winning votes.We told the late Dr.Mwanawasa that if MMD is managed on founding principles, after his term, we would take it back and give it to our choice man founding or enlisted.

  312. “I am told an MMD party official in Kasama grabbed a microphone and started insulting another leader when the body arrived.This is surely not acceptable.” Mr Mulongoti said. Thats the legacy that Levy has left. And Compromised Post is busy lauding the LEGACY.
    No.385 has pointed out important issues. I’ll go by “the only good man is a dead one” Animal Farm, if LPM has left gud LEGACY. LPM promoted hooliganism, unlawfuulyy trying to deport Kalaki, Chasing Kavindele & Msoni from MMD convention. Shooting down Prof. Chirwa. He scattered everyone and they lived in fear. Dismissing Pastor Nevers Mumba after forcing him 2 disband his party. Shame. Wat a LEGACY?

  313. Like him or not Sata is a good schemer who can only be matched by VJ, although he can outwit VJ in mobilising the masses. While HH and others were holding press briefings about standing he had figured out what Maureen and MMD had in mind, gaining political capital by sympathy vote. So he also arranged his own plane and rightly said I will mourn with you too.

    Sata will kill MMD come elections if they field Maureen, she cannot match. She knows him and that’s why she was very emotional when she saw he had followed them! Mark my words..

  314. i agree with NO. NTWENI, we have to take Mpombo and Malangeti to task over the “ABLE THING”…… we not fools!

  315. Blogger 184: One thing you should know is the majority of the politicians on the scene ( especially opposition leaders-Nevers inc.) are power-hungry freaks who want to assend to plot one merely for the glory of it. We now know what qualities to look for in a president-lets scrutinise please

  316. Please just make sure your kids attend school, this is the right time. i don’t know how many days of the term they have been in class over the years.

    and you don’t belong to this game………Jehovah is asking you go back to the congregation.

    #350 HAVE YOU EVER SEEN DEMOCRACY WITHOUT INSULTS. WHAT ADVICE CAN YOU GIVE US.

    Democracy allows everyone to have a voice and not only for those that can master the most insulting words. There are many people that would like to take part in matters affecting our country most of them very educated others not so but fear some of you because you will call them all sorts of names as such they think its a waste of time. If you call me so and so and in turn i do also call u so & so r we bin productive? This is the situation that LPM was falling into with Sata always trying to out muscule each other. Now tel me what Everyone is saying today????

  318. Zambia has many potential leaders. Levy is no more MHSRIP. Surely can we say we can’t look any further than his wife? I think Zambia can do better than this.

  319. Ba Chibombamilimo apapena mwaluba completely!!!!!!!!!!! lets just hand over leadership to sata and PF, am sure the man will lead the nation to development even better than our late president. next time please ask before making any statements regarding the party.

  320. Ala mwandi its very ambarassin to the nation for wht we are hearing specailly cuming from the first lady twasabana.

  321. When Mutinta Mazoka was mourning, all citizens respected her silence, and did not bother her with the nonsense of taking over as boss. This Chibombamilimo is just a maniac who wants an erection in the direction of Moreen and not an election for her.

  322. Pastor Nevers Mumba were are you? The Presidency is waiting on you. So the man who wil decide who gets nominated is no other than Katele Kalumba.

  323. Iwe chi #357 are those minsters, nawakwi, Nevers, Morini and them who are moving with the coffin witches????? GET A LIFE MAN BCOZ I CAN SEE YOU ARE A DEAD CORPES!

  324. Imwe, LPM battled prostate cancer which led to impotence. As a result, Maureen was being ‘serviced’ by Darlington Mwape, & this distressed LPM very much but he was stuck with what to do in this tricky situation. I wonder why Fred Mmembe didn’t report on this issue?

  325. Chibombamilimo takwata amano, honestly even if they say power is sweet,let him not boot lick the husbands boots and now he wants to lick the wife’s pants.He should tell us publicly that he wants to do up chookolo on Maureen.What qualities does Maureen have?As far as am concerned she has Dictatorship qualities.She used to dictate His Excellency Dr L.P Mwanawasa and Chibombamilimo wants the whole nation to be dictated.Wa be ilya uma

  326. it seems this boy Chibombamilimo is just in love with Maureen. telelo ambile ukulanda pali Maureen. he should just tell the first lady the truth. we are not short of leaders in Zambia. running a country is way too different from running a charity foundation. let Maureen concentrate on her MMCI project and we the Zambian people will decide who will be our next President.

  327. Hahaha! now listen ai! This mulongoti cockorouchi is a liar, I mean look at what the Times of Zambia newspaper is saying, The bagger is saying Mr. Sata uttered some provoking words to ba Moleen, what exactly did he say? Chief Govt. spokesman? you ought to be ashamed of yourself.

  328. Some of the comments posted make me wonder if we want to make a psychological profile as to how a woman should behave when her husband dies # 451 or maybe to some its just too personal because they are thinking the Mwanawasa’s will have a continuation of Amalila. People certain life styles come with the position you hold in society stop thinking of balelila beka attitude changing gov because bambi balileko. In Chilubas time as long as you are getting the job done you can keep some dosh on the side that was the attitude this is the reason y some people believe it wasn’t corruption

  329. The people that we honestly believed to be the ones to save us did not leave by there word ie KK was a good man until state house became too personal he lost sight of why he was there, FTJ brought a wind of change and we loved him but he realised power is sweet and all you have to do is give people what they want even when it will only last for a few days Then came LPM whom almost everyone hated the man stood by his word the rule of law and not men and we hated him for it but he had a vision and it was the future and not only for tomorrow but search things only happen over a long period of time and the list of enemies grows with each passing minute but at the end of it friends are many.

  330. This just goes to show the idiocy that fills our cabinet – showing total disregard of the constitution on which this country lays the basis for its fair & democratic governance rather than some monkey ideas dreamt by some useless nut like him whose only usefulness was to lick LPM’s boots!!!

  331. # 417. “lesawabonse says: Aug 26th, 2008 at 1:41 pm
    #350 HAVE YOU EVER SEEN DEMOCRACY WITHOUT INSULTS. WHAT ADVICE CAN YOU GIVE US.”

    What did I say, on #350 I said we have a long way to go in understanding democracy. look at what I have just quotated above. His/her concious is very clear that s/he understands democracy.

    From such people what type of a leader would they choose? I guess one who insults the most because to them that most democratic person from his explanation above.

  332. Advice be clear are you quoting me #350 or #417 clarify please so i can defend my self because if its me then i would say you have missunderstood what i was trying to expalain because someone #417 lesawabonse was telling me that insults are part of democracy which i personaly think in morden society should not be allowed though some will accept it to be normal. When we build on democracy we are acturely trying to get rid of such sentiments made by #417 lesawabonse

  333. At bwanji ba Zedians! Indeed we are just jokers! so far so good!but can someone answer this question ” Is the MMD(chi Moleen) acheiving their intend objective by taking Our beloved LPM’s body in all nine provinces? Remember guys what happened in the last elections? It was the pipo in these same rural areas the body is passing through who made the MMD win the last elections.

    remember History has a way of repeating itself! viva ba youths!

  334. ‘He also had to face accusations of nepotism with his wife Maureen often seen as the real power behind the throne.

    She was instrumental in persuading him to run again for president in September 2006 only months after he had suffered his first stroke.

    The Zambian leader had a long record of ill health, having suffered from prostate cancer, hypertension, diabetes and injuries from a road accident in 1993 when he was deputy president’.
    AFP

  335. It is true that ba LPM had a long record of illness – we all know this as a fact. There are more facts we should consider tho! He ran for the second term becoz the queen is power hungery. People. Why shud we go round and round in circles as if we are in the wilderness of Moses time. LPM had a person in mind. Reading the other blog, I agree with “abanthu” who gave ref to LPM’s words in the post of 21/10/08. Ba NEC be real. Morini is no issue – she is just a house wife, not anything more in this matter. Morini – did u kill ba LPM so u cud get sympathy from pipo. Wailasha Morinyo

  336. Uchipo, you have not read well my posting on #461.
    Note that #350 was me, and I was quoted by “lesawabonse” on #417.
    You, you are just fine and you came on #438 and if you check I have not included your response. I made response to “lesawabonse” just like you did, so we are on the same path.
    Thanks for seeking the clarification.

  337. Chibombamilimo is an outsider to the MMD winning calculus. There is no role he could point at as having played in all the victory years MMD has been winning.He pleaded for the Matero constituency to fielded in 2006. But because of his usual loose mouth talk, strategists refused to avail on him. They left him alone to lose. Hence defeat to PF’s Sinyangwe.Without MMD strategists Milimo would never win even a ward. If he cannot for himself how would he manage a campaign without the blessings of Party strategists, machinists, confidants and winning tiers? His, is dangerous appeasement of defeat.He will never have a place in the MMD continuity Administration picking it up from November.

  338. The first lady has no intentions of humiliating herself in the MMD Presidential politics.She has been insufficiently been enlightened on the dynamics beyond her resistance.Stop entangling the a mourning mother.

  339. WATUZEWANYA WE KAPOLI! NOW I TRULY UNDERSTAND WHY gREVOR SIKASOTE FEELS SO BAD ABOUT YOU.

    PLEASE CONTINUE TAKING ARVS MMCI WILL ALWAYS BE SUPPLIED FOR YOU TO BE ALIVE.

    YOU ARE TRUE HYPOCRIT

  340. Ba Lameck uku ntotokanya kwati chi lilomba, even when JFK got assassinated, despite the massive outpouring of grief by the US citizens,NO ONE suggested Jackie kennedy takes over as president! So what more of Maureen

  341. # 449, Darlington Mwape is lucky to be alive bcoz unlike Levy, Robert Mugabe ordered the killing of one of the secret lovers of Grace Marufu (his wife) upon learning she was conducting an affair with a rich harare businessman. His now six feet under after being eliminated by the CIO as he drove home from the airport. Poor old Levy, he wud rather live with the ignominy of his wife having an affair instead of contemplating ‘elimination’. May be he wud still be breathing if ka Darlington was treated the same

  342. chibombamilimo,kwena ulichipuba sana mudala..what is your highest qualification anyway?does anyone know the qualifications of this baboon in nothern province

  343. Kwena these MMD first ladies Vera naka late coloured boy,what ever his name was.Then ba maureen with this mwape guy.Whats happening kashi with these ladies.

  344. This whole topic makes me and am sure a great many people of our beloved Zambia want to laugh out loud. And yes before you go on and critisise me on the remark can I remind the minister, Mr Chibombamilimo that we are living under a democratic rule of government. Even if she did have the credentials what right does she have to become president. It is not a monarchy or is it? I those are your feelings then I sugest she be nominated as the MMd’s candidtate. We should stop living in the past and get rid of all this neopotic kind of behaiviour. Am sure he only stated this because he knows that his position is in jepardy seeing that a great many of people in office are only in there positions

  345. Maureen was the power behind the throne. I am told she gave in to FTJ so that Levy could be adopted.

    Have you seen how the post is getting easy access to the Mwanawasas. I hear that one of the senior guys has been servicing Madam since diabetic levy could not deliver a missile.

    Now that relatives in embassies and parastatals are scared stiff for their jobs, we now have to wait for the inevitable- the downfall of the selish dynasty that plundered US $ 1 in Paris. Nkole needs to follow the first family.

  346. because of family ties. Why cant we just mourn a man who proved to be the greatest leader that our beloved country has ever had without people trying to politicise the whole issue. We should go forward and live our lives by his great example of selflessness. It is a pity we only begun to realise his great love and dedication to serve the nation when it was too late, some thing that I can say is an unfortunate human trait. Before i sign off may I emphasise the points I am trying to put across which are that we should follow a democratic process when we pick the next leader and secondly we should not let President Mwanawasa’s untimely death be in vain. His work has opened our eyes now let us

  347. honor him by making our country great agian through hard work dedication to the just cause that he was dedicated to

  348. What utter nonsense? Presidents are elected and voted for, they are not handpicked like mangoes. please dont give sickening speeches.

  349. Ba Sad zambian # 444,
    Little did i know that in your sadness are lies your spew through without a conscious.MMD’s NEC doesn’t support Chibombamilimo’s push and reliably the first lady has asked her Gen Shikapwasha to convey her assuring word to RB and Chairman Mabenga.She says she stands by her public word she already made that she has no intentions of standing.She has send her solidarity to the RB for President.On Mama Mtinta Mazoka, you have lied again.In the midst of mourning late Maana Mubotu Mazoka, he was busy coordinating and making statements for President for Tonga only.She was the one that brought in HH and ordered Mwananjiti,and team to bruise and kick non tongas.

  350. Answer to 485: The last thing God created after He had made everything else and He was very, very tired! In other words, a fat-headed moron with a brain the size of a peanut.

  351. Mr Chibombamilimo is a disappointment,what impression is he creating to the Zambian people,why can’t he contest for presidence himself instead of forcing other people.Are we talking about going with other people to receive God’s blessings & when it comes to his turn he says I just escoted my friends.

  352. Only in Africa can you select a person by virtue of being a first lady but has not even served in parliament or cabinet to be a President. Wake up people, when are we going to evolve from the stone age. Look at our friends from the western nations and learn a few things.

  353. Am glad the majority of my fellow country men have common sense.The time has come for more jobs,lower taxes and more money in our pockets though it sounds unbelievable Micheal Sata is the voice of a true patriot let us not deny him his rightfulness for the second time he deserves a chance to lead his people who he has served for long enough and stands the undisputed one talking of experience.AMAKA!!!!!!

  354. Chibombamilimo is broke he spent all his money feeding the pastors who were camped at his Amaka Lodge no wander he wants the first lady to be a president.

    Even her it wont be wise to accept the job offer from chibombamilimo unless if she had a hand in the death of her husband.

  355. What is wrong with Chibombamilimo.Last week he was supporting RB and now it is Maureen.Is he mentally okay or there are some loose nuts upstairs.I dont want to call him foolish like others have done but want to question his mental capacity

  356. Well done everybody. I can see we are heading in the right direction apart from a few people who I believe, will understand issues as we go on. We shall carry you along and make you beieve in what we believe in. Backwards we will not. Stone age politics are gone. Bootlicking like Chibombamilimo has been doing should not be allowed to show its ugly head. Let these people be removed from these positions and lets have serious people. I support my own party but if I believe another party has a more capable person than my own party president I will vote for him. I’m looking at the future and not the present. God bless you all

  357. Lameck has uturned and Maureen has endorsed magande and she claims the hubby selected him even though we know he was going to fire him as soon as he came from AU. She has exposed herself as the power behinf LPM and she will now face the music over her corruption and indiscretions in marriage. LPM family will also be on her as she claims the lawayer has 2 vidoes one for family and one for nation as the last will for LPM. this woman is a witch. she wants to mourn while she campaigns NONSENSE

  358. she has no business imposing herself on the citizens of zambia.This would be an insult to the intelligence of the citizens.we have to have a proven track record of ability to lead the country to its destiny.no the kitchen cabinet.

  359. #478 pl let us know who you are talking about from the POST? Don’t let the people guessing.
    She got a lot of publicity today in the SUNDAY POST with the interview she gave.
    Well, everyone can see that the Post is backing Magande and Maureen. Maybe Magande will have Maureen as his running mate (if the constitution will be changed by then). If he should become president and something happens to him before 2011 then she will automatically become president of Zambia. If nothing happens to him she will have a head start in the 2011 elections.

    What will happen to MMCI now?

  360. Poor LPM look at what he had to live with…. Really the woman appears in the post with lipstick,face powder & darkened eyebrows and she is the widow???? On top of all that she wants us to listen to a tape from 2005 for Godsake let the dead be dead as at this stage we really dont care what LPM had to say…..let alone choose a leader for us we can bloody well choose our own leader. Maureen please i beg of you mourn for your husband and realise you are just another woman in Zambia that 1st lady title is gone for good. Lord bless Levy as he must be turning in his grave.

  361. maureen you are crazy!you a a disgrace to the african women.Its very clear you have not mourned LPM.You are the biggest planderer zambia has ever known.We are aware of all the money you took when Levy was sick and you will bring it back!Dreaming of becoming president is the last thing for you and it will never happen!Rubbish Woman!!!!

  362. chibombamilimo who are you, its like you not thinking.it doesnt mean if she was mwanawasa’s she can rule us thats insane

  363. That would be the end of Zambia. Maureen? A sick joke.let’s try to put our brains in good gear before we utter such damaging nonsense. Are you blind Chibombamilimo?

  364. i really don’t understand what this man is trying to pull. maureen is a very controling person filled with negative energy. that woman wasn’t even kind to fellow zambian women during her intiative movement days how is she going to be kind to zambia as a whole?

    yaba ba mudala aba tabakwata ifyakulanda ayi

  365. You actually make it appear so easy along with your presentation however I to find this topic to be really one thing that I think I’d by no means understand. It kind of feels too complicated and very vast for me. I am looking ahead for your next publish, I will try to get the dangle of it!
