I did not endorse HH- Sata

Share

Following the launch of the Michael Sata campaign website, a copy website called hakainde.com was also launched.This was according to a Patriot Front spokesperson. The website had on its front page a claim that Mr Sata had endorsed HH.

Mr Sata has since refuted this  claim.” I cannot be a vice to someone who is under five and inexperienced…He has never met me to discuss a government of national unity. It’s a lie.”

Mr Sata further said “In 2006, I had more presidential votes than H.H, I had more MPs than H.H, I had more councilors than H.H . In 2006 when he represented 3 parties, H.H reduced the Mazoka led UPND from 49 to 22 MPs, he reduced FDD from 11 to 2 MPs, he reduced UNIP from 15 to 2 MPs. So what credentials has he got to consider me as vice? If in his eyes I am too old, why then should he consider me for vice? It’s all in his dreams and wishful thinking. We are filling nominations next week and we are very confident PF will form the next government”.

  1. All those of you dreaming defeat of MMD are dangerously clueless.You speak from your fingers instead of your brains typical of armchair critics we have defeated election after election.We are starting to make statehouse to the preference of RB.Pacts and electoral alliances are not born out of dissimilarities in value system and ideologues.Its like forcing oil and water to calmingle.

  2. SATA ? why can’t some new guy come out from no where and be the next president? sata can’t change anything. he already know how to steal pub money. Sata is a bad idea. Zambians you know that,

  3. Ok. We understand why the PF-UPND PACT could not take effect now. It was all because Hon Sata thought he had a right to lead as Presdient of the PACT with HH as his Veep – a gimmick that was there to let HH, a financially sound man, fund Sata and also give away his (HH) votes to old-struggling Hon. Sata. NO, NO WAYS for clever and UNZA-EDUCATED UPND’s HH. Yaba, people with long-fingers as #5 has mentioned, they never cease to amaze me.

  4. This man never ceases to amuse me, at his age he has no diplomatic language. Aba kuti bamuletela! No diplomacy as old as he is! Shame!

  5. I thought basata had gone into pact with HH.

    sata do what is right for the zambians and for yourself.

    we love as family and you’ve got our votes. go!! go!! man you rock

  6. There we go, again. People we have just lost a president because someone somewhere didn’t listen in ’96 when we said Levy’s health was failing. Sata just survived a fatal heart attack and yet he insists on being fit enough for the office of president. Aren’t wise people supposed to learn from other people’s mistakes?

  7. HH is a Mansonist who frequents the lougue against our Zambian christian values while Sata is a slay catholic but self revered annointed PF life President fighting for a retirement package.He has five wives including Joyce Nonde who he maintains for offline concubine duties.There is nothing that would bind the two.If anything, it would be chaotic to form a Government.They are far short of the legislative numbers combined, different agendas of tribal vengence,inconsistencies on DFI policy especially over the Chinese and indians.What MMD is building its successes on they condemned in 2006 not they are kissing.The MMD they called all sorts of names are the only ones who can break or hold them.

  8. If anything we have written to him for change of strategy in his campaigns to issue based, visit barackobam.com, johnmccain.com and better still haikande.com, to me issues raised their are sound. We have urged the two leaders to stop fighting each other in their unprofessionally designed websites. Merging will be the only way to oust MMD from power, synergy will always work. Sata’s websites is full of Facts vs Lies and for how long is he going continue to refuting such lies? michaelsata.co.zm

  9. Stop blaming President Sata you straight jacket armchair critics.If you think you have the brains and the tact why don’t you regroup in your own party and face MMD? You are ungrateful. The man started his own party and doesn’t want it ruined by a calculator boy dreaming ego when he has no clue about political struggles. This is mature democracy you don’t just bundle up with every opportunist without shared values.For any reason should anyone of the two face financial problems to sustain their campaign, we pledge US $ 1 Million from the Democracy fund for struggling parties qualifying for special help.This money is with Stanbic Zambia ready for democracy promotion.Let Democracy prevail.

  10. The opposition is just full of KNUCKLE-HEADS. They stand NO CHANCE at all of winning if they don’t merge. RB for president!

  11. Let H.H and SATA learn from past mistakes.These two alone will never form GRZ.Selfishness will take them no where.Just unite or dig your own graves……

  12. HH is not going anywhere bane. The boy killed UDA and it was good mudala SATA amumona ati alefwaya ukwipaya ubwato amutanfya. Why can`t this boy HH get some experience before he could continue with his dreams. You can`t just come from somewhere to plot one yashani. Look at how people are picked in states.

  13. No. 14,

    What you are seeing between the two is there in the “Peace Democratic theory” Democracy don’t fight each other.The two are not democratized institutions.

  14. Having a PF-UPND alliance in these elections does not make sense. Such an alliance can only work if either one of the leaders is prepared not to stand. However, we know that both Sata and HH are selfish know-it-all characters. We do not have a running mate system. Therefore having a VEEP is a non-starter. Whoever wins will be very quick to dump the other. There is nothing in the constitution to stop the winner from ditching the so called vice president.

  15. Does having a heart attack mean that is the end of someone`s life? I am surpdrised that is coming from someone in the western world.

  16. Sata is nothing but aa failed first generation MMD – which had a crop of plunderers liek the ones now charged for abuse of office and theft by public servant. Why did he not resign from MMD like late LPM did if he (Sata) was a principled person? What else does Hon Sata have to offer which he (sata) did not do in his time with Chiluba?
    All Hon Sata was good at was silencing his-fellow competitor for Plot 1 in the MMD of 2001, but his boss Chiluba damped him for now-cool late LPM (MHSRIP). Hon. Sata can be best described as the REMNANT of the CGHILUBA-MMD which grossly mismagement our Great Country Zambia and Nation to near total collapse. Vote wisely, vote HH. HH waboola.

  17. There goes the dream ticket and with it the expectation that the opposition will form the next government in the near and forseeable future.RB and the MMD’s work has been reduced by half with this act.

    #15 Pragmatist can you give us more details as to how we can access the US1million lying in Stanbic,we need to start organising ourselves for 2011.

  18. I’ll never understand why Zambians are so forgetful. This is the same Sata who threatened people with Pangas, shamelessly supported the 3rd term; but it seems we have the menmory of a chicken. Are we really that St_pid? AS for HH,to be brutally honest, this is a guy who was thrust into UPND not because of political experience- or any distinguished business achievement, but because he was Tonga- that talk of him being an economic manager is all cr*p- tell me one distinugished thin he’s achieved. As for RB- his recent actions speak for themselves. Point is we are in ahopeless situation as a country. WE need new people.

  19. #28, Please, just think carefully again. We are not in a hopeless situation.HH is the man of the moment! You can never hope for anything better than PANGAs and 3rd Term should Sata become President.You can surely brace yourselves for the worst of the MMD under Rupiah Banda because he has already shown that he is into money -just refer to the hefty-salaries and allowances the Cabinet is trying to have signed under him (RB) to enrich themselves -so much that by 2011 Zambia will be worse off than it was in 2001. There is hope. Fellow Zambians, just think with your heads and not your hearts.People of Sata’s character are the ones telling you to believe lies about HH and Tonga, then fall4them

  20. Sat is an incorrigable lier. The man is so ugly and crude he would scare away all the investors. He says Banda is a tribalist ! Who is more tribalistic Banda or Sata ! Sata addresses his meetings in Bemba regardless of the audience. If that is not being tribalistic what is it ?

  21. Surely, zambians you deserve better. Why do youwant to let the POST and Sata cheat you on HH by their HATE on him (HH). If you want a terrible life, let Hon. Sata and the POST dictate to you not to vote for REAL CHANGE. There is no time for experiments! We all know the history and evolution of Hon Sata. We have a glimpse of RB in our eyes. Even first lady Maureen mwanawasa mentioned that late LP Mwanawasa was for Magande – and some of you want to entrust RB with the State.
    I tell you the TRUTH, you as Zambians will only have yourselves to blame if you make a grave mistake this time around. Vote for REAL change, vote HH into Plot 1.

  22. This is lack principles.You are the same armchair critics loudest calling for Sata to join leagues with Hichilema so that Sata is President and the later his vice.Today just because he has realised the inconsequential value you are here again littering him.What a low grade you are!

  23. Aaaata!!! am losing intrest in PF and UPND now.Pact was way to go but am now positive that RB will defeat these selfish “could have beens”

  24. Thank God you are called into opposition rhetoric without a platform other than blogs.Have principles in thick and thin too prove maturity.You are changing positions like pata patas.So today Sata is a corrupt animal when yesterday he was a Presidential material?

  25. #13 I think you are way off course there – mind you language and leave the dead to sleep in peace !

    Sata – you are NOT going to form the next government due to your greed and selfishness. When MMD got rid of UNIP it was people coming together with different view points but with a common goal – to get rid of the common enemy (UNIP-led KK). Ubwato has started to sink… what a shame !

  26. #34, do not lose interest yet. Hon Sata has always had nothing noble to offer the Zambian People. That is why the clever leadership of the UPND through its well-educated-and-principled President HH could not risk the future of Zambia in the hands of the PF’s Sata, who is a self-appointed PF president who has never been subjected to an election in his PF that he treats almost as Bemba Country since he uses Bemba wherever he goes to campaign for PF and himself.
    Do not lose heart #34, HH has been carefully campaigning throughout the Country ever since 2006. He has taken Luapula Province like I don’t know, Hh will soon take Cent. Prov and Copp. Prov. He has already taken Lus. Prov. Ni Ziiii

  27. HH, ni Zii (HH, he is the shiiii). Kala mpokedde, alakuyasa mamvwa (stay sat where you are sitted, otherwise the thorns will prick you). Kobatama ubone citicitike musa (Just relax and see what will happen). Meanwhile, #34, tell you children, your brother and sisters, father and mother, all your relatives that HH is the man of the moment if you ever hope for a future for your children and the next generation of Zambians after them. Look at Congo DR, Russia now, and America now. Everybody has gone young for President. If old men continue taking the the youngmen’s jobs, where and when shall we work young Zambians?

  28. #29 Maestro Hehehe. I see you’re fervent supporter of HH- nothing wrong with that. But look closely @ HH- there is nothing about his character that places him as a “man of the moment”. His short career in politics is founded on abuse of the party hierarchy in UPND. I am not a tribalist but it does not take a blind man to see that HH was chosen puerly on tribe-otherwise Sakwiba/Patrick Chisanga would have been UPND president. There is nothing the opposition can offer- they are in fact all MMD- Spin-offs- nothing original about them- so they’ll have little impact. Personally I wait for a differt time and party to have hope for my country again.

  29. When Jesus was going to heaven let all humanity a life message that “in his father’s house are many mansions”.MMD a mother of all Zambian political system with UNIP being the father.All you prodical sons come back home.MMD is a parent party that will ignore your emotional moves.You have a place and role to play towards a brighter Zambia.

  30. its funny to watch people change position as pata pata. MMD wins again SATA HH will never see plot 1 thats a fact. i guess it was wishful thinking on people’s part that the two could come together.

  31. Surely bane! Should a website be a point to ponder on? Who can’t have a website nowadays. Lets talk about issues please and if we don’t have any just shut up. Bembas are all for Sata, Tongas all for HH where does that leave me a Namwaanga? I can however give credit to HH who was voted into his position by the Tongas while the bembas ignored their Chisanga and Lozis their Sakwiba. Now the bembas are left with self imposed Sata. We all know what Sata and RB can do or offer as they are old timers. Lets give chance to newcomers in this case HH and my choice is not based on tribe. If he has to mess up lets see what sort of mess he will make before we hang him

  32. #42, I hear you, but there is alot you dont understand about Sakwiba. I wished we could speak personally. However, I will leave you with a simple question.It is a well known fact that Sakwiba left UPND with a lot of UPND defectors to form ULP, but how has Sakwiba performed with his break-away ULP? If he were better than HH in politics and political-party-management, don’t you think ULP was going to be the strongest oppossiton party instead of PF? People must stop ranting about HH’s UPND. HH has done a great job to maintain what Mazoka fought for and built! On P.Chisanga, I will not say much for I personally respect him. He left HH’s UPND quietly without making unfounded allegations on HH

  33. #42 here is more data: “But before that, we want to ask president Sata if what has been attributed to him in The Post today yesterday in relation to the formation of a political force or agreement is true and if he still stands by that; and if that is the case, to form a big force and kick MMD out of government, then we will chart the way forward. Mr Sata’s idea is very good and we welcome it. We will look at ways of working together to defeat this government which has caused so much harm and poverty to the majority poor Zambians,” Kapita said. ht tp:/ /maravi .blogspo t.c om/ 2008/09/upnd-welcomes-pf-poll-pact-proposa l.ht ml By the way Richard kapita is UPND’s Veep.

  34. However, Kapita said the UPND would continue with its campaigns. “Right now, what Mr. Sata has said is being treated like any other statements until we sit and agree on the way forward. But as UPND, we are on course and we will continue with our campaign programmes of selling the party and our president Mr Hichilema,” he said.

  35. #45 you are right the pair should step on that plot. lets be honest bane, SATA once a minister without post that just showed how useless, childsh and a dictator the man is. i have no doubt the man oganised the shotings of other politicians bcoz he had nothing to do as a minister but to force things the way he wanted. i wonder why he removed letter N from his last name. he is not real!!!

  36. Now just see how the UPND and HH have tried to do things professionally, but Hon. Sata in his usual undermining mode has totally made his initial advances into his political death.
    If Hon. Sata is patriotic as he has nament his PF, why does he (Sata) insist on being Zambian Republican President when he is very old and probably sick from his smoking, and also knows that according to the Constitution we may have another presidential-by-election if he dies? Hon Sata knows that the life-expectancy in Zambia is 42 yrs and he is well about 72, when makes him a terrible person to elect as president especially that one former president has just died and 2008 election is impacting financially?

  37. Sata supported 3rd term for chiluba, he is not popular in southern, north western and western pronvinces, HH has denied him a pact. What next LOSER!!!!!

  38. Poor zambians lets not make a mistek of voting for another petiant .sata is suffering from a heart attack .so lets chose a president who will see our country develop and not after 6 months ,having new by elections .we all love ba sata and would like him to stay .

  39. Zambians, we are in what Dennis Liwewe used to call as do or die situation when our Copper bullets – Chipolopolo – where playing a crucial World/Africa Cup match!
    We can not afford to do experiment or play-games when things like our Republican Constitution need serious mending to make it stand the test of time. This not time to put JOKERS in State House. We have a Zambia to develop and not Tongaland to develop in the name of Southern Province. This calls for level-headedness and serious reflection on our actions country-men and women.
    Ourselve, our children and our children’s children and so on and so forth are right now depending on our decisipn in this 2008 election. Vote HH!

  40. #57- to continue our debate. I hate to quote Sata but HH is responsible for the decline in UPND. His rise to the helm in UPND was tainted with moral corruption- and like Mwanwasa MHSRIP- he still had a chance to prove himself by making UPND grow. The ooposite happens, bring into quetion how he will handle Zambia. He failed to persuade UPND to stay together- a mark of leadership is bringing ppl together. Sata’s history is equally corrupt (with panga wielding though), RB has failed to address important issues like salary hikes- busy distributing sugar. We’re looking at 3 SAME leopards- just coming in different spote. God save mother Zambia!

  41. HH though was a unza student has no theory to get to plot1. Here is one for free: Agree to make sata candidate for oct 30 and you 2011 when sata will be your running mate (new constitution). That way you will be surely elected presid in 2011. That’s give and take. What’s the hurry? you’re young and so keep safe with God. Ask God to get into plot1 in 2011. Hey, easy!!

  42. #57- to continue our debate. I hate to quote Sata but HH is responsible for the decline in UPND. His rise to the helm in UPND was tainted with moral corruption- and like Mwanwasa MHSRIP- he still had a chance to prove himself by making UPND grow. The opposite happened, bring into quetion how he will handle Zambia. He failed to persuade UPND to stay together- a mark of leadership is bringing ppl together. Sata’s history is equally corrupt (with panga wielding though), RB has failed to address important issues like salary hikes- busy distributing sugar. We’re looking at 3 SAME leopards- just coming in different spots. God save mother Zambia! Sorry for errors- the alcohol is working overtime

  43. You can argue all you want untill the cock crows you guys my eyes are set on www thecitizensdemocraticparty com come 2011. We are tired of old, unproductive, selfish politicians who will say one thing in the morning, another at noon and yet another at sunset. Go CDP Go!!

  44. #65- yes it is in my hands, but the timing is not right- and you Sir know I am right. I am waiting for a different crop of leaders- all of these have proved themselves not worthy of leading our potentially great country. All the best #65. We’ll agree to disagree.

  45. And Hichilema, who welcomed the announcement of October 30 as the election day, said UPND was ready to contest since they have been campaigning from 2006.
    He said the election date had been moved forward because government thought that they would catch the opposition unaware but that they got it wrong.
    “Rupiah doesn’t represent Levy’s vision and values at all because when Levy was dying in France, Rupiah remained by hastening up salary and emoluments Bill to pay himself allowances. He preferred an act of greediness,” Hichilema said. ht tp:/ /maravi .blogspo t.c om/ 2008/09/upnd-welcomes-pf-poll-pact-proposa l.ht ml

  46. Thanks #65. Take careful care and all the best in your activities. May the good Lord God bless Zambia and all Zambians wherever they/you are.

  47. Thanks #67 (and not #65 as indicated on #69). Take careful care and all the best in your activities. May the good Lord God bless Zambia and all Zambians wherever they/you are.

  48. Maestro Hhehehe; Sata’s position seems to have hit you hard. Well, both HH and Sata are going nowhere in this election, only fighting for bronze and silver. So let not your heart break. Its the usual Poor finishing, (PF) being exhibited by Sata, and because of pride,Hakaivotela Heka, (HH). May be in 2011 with the 50%+1 vote rule.

  49. “Levy’s vision was to take the country forward but people who are surrounding Rupiah have unfinished business. It’s us who can do that. What is it that they have not achieved since 1960? Rupiah doesn’t represent the future but the past.” Hichilema said Zambia needed better life for its people and that Vice-President Banda had retired at old age and was later recalled to public service. ht tp:/ /maravi .blogspo t.c om/ 2008/09/upnd-welcomes-pf-poll-pact-proposa l.ht ml
    I am now signing off. Until the next time: Do not forget to campaign and vote wisely in terms of HH for Zambian President Oct 30, 2008.

  50. This Blog is full of bamuselela kwakaba typical of Kaponyas.They are driven by opportunism other than principles or values.Lets get something better to do.Its MMD with the people’s mandate.M’membe and Malupenga balimundoti.They thought they could conspire to finish VJ, little did they know the power of his Shushushu makeup.He has now ignored them and engaged in unstoppable business.A learn to all of us.You don’t mess with Shushushu and think you will have a future.Have you seen how many from that side are coming in? Dr.Kamoyo Mwale,Elijah Muchima and many more as politicians and technocrates.

  51. If Sata sees HH as being under five, then he (Sata) is too old. Sata will never be prezdo. The sonner he accepts that, the better.

  52. Now those who support Sata can see for themselves the lack of seriousnes on his part. Just last week Sata wanted to team up with HH. He was in Monze on Sky Radio begging for HH to join hands with Sata but now he call HH under five. Why did Sata want to bring an under five person to the corridors of power? The man is too old he even has short memory now.

  53. People, just look at that picture. Don’t vote Sata and will congratulate yourself in future.

    #23, what where you doing down there?

  54. Opps! what I meant to say was:

    People, just look at that picture. Don’t vote for Sata and you will congratulate yourselves in future.

    #23, what where you doing down there?

  55. Indeed, you cannot teach an old dog new tricks. During the last polls, Sata claimed Levy will only rule this country over his dead body. What happened in the end, Muwelewele trounced the Serpent hands down. Now, its clear that ‘aBanda ana bwera ku wina Sata’. As for Hakainde, his image is so tainted with wet tribal rot, he is damaged goods and without the support of UNIP and FDD, his spoils i this polls will be ridiculous and only his fellow brethrens blinded by tribal bigotry cannot see this! He should maybe ask Aka why he is not eve considering to run.

  56. HH is the waste candidate of all,we dont hate him at all but he should go and do some political science in the uk or Usa for him to impress the majority illiterate zambians in the rural areas.As an economist I do not have a problem in understanding his language when he tals about policies and other development plans.But the problem is the man is politicallty poor in convincing the people of what is capable of doing.I strongly agree with his idiology but feel I will be wasting my vote to be on the losing sside and third for that matter. Politrics goes beyond economical explanations into more psychological and theological instruments.He should be able to lead the minds of the 12 million peopl

  57. Pragmatist, are you suggesting Zambia needs to go back to one party state by all Zambians joining MMD? Mate you are jocking.I like the way you exaggerate and speculate your fantasies in modern politics.
    Shushushu mentality will not convince well informed and educated Zambians.It is time for us to debate on issues that are affecting our pipo insteady of cheap politics.
    Secondly, Maestro, UPND will not win the 30/10 elections, in my humble option MMD stands a better chance due to many factors, access to national resources, Propaganda machinery, shushushu + other agent to rig the elections. VJ is back. In remote areas where there are less than 10 thousand pipo it will be doubled.

  58. Why so many of you concerned about Sata and HH? These two are like pipo attending a wedding. There is only two persons who enjoy that wedding that is,the bride groom and bride.In this case it will be RB and MMD while Sata and HH will remember that they were just escorting RB and MMD for victory. I personally dont support MMD but greedness and not keen to listern to voters by Sata and HH they are going to pay the price come may 30 Oct. History tells us it is difficult to remove the ruling party. If these two have listerned to pipo change will be in their hands.

  59. All Sata wanted to be the president of the pact not the party and it seems HH refused.Sata wanted to be president of pact and HH president of the repbublic and HH is the selfish one here he wanted to have everything for himself.

    have i not openned your eyes! now you can see and you are out of the cave guys

  60. #81 if you look at the 2006 results you will notice that HH did by far better than Sata in the rural areas. Sata’s 70% votes game from Lusaka and Copperbelt. Please check your facts before you write. Sata even today thinks he can be president of Zambia without votes from Southern, Western and N/Western. He never campained in those provinces so even when people do not vote for him it is because they do not know what he stands for in those parts of the country. This time round all I can do is wish Sata wel because I think he needs more of that than good luck. In 2006 80% of HH’s vote came from rural constituences.

  61. I would like to vote for sata but let’s face it guys,sata is ugly.i wonder how his heart is gonna be when he wins the election.Those of you that are ku mangalade will be told to stay right there for the rest of your lives.Hmmmmmmmm! freedom of speech.

  62. Bwana Sata, there’s a phrase in democratic politics that goes, ‘Being Presidential’. Your demeanor and language ruled you out from achieving that status years ago…

  63. Banda is the image of UNIP in a mirror and Sata is the image of MMD in a mirror. If I have a choice I will go with Banda. The failure of UNIP govt was purely due to lack of skilled people to manage the economy while the failure of MMD was just theft of public funds. People were moving with K2billion cash, simply unbelievable.

  64. Twanwa again mu MMD. Fya pusana fi opposition. HH goes on his web page, Hakainde.com, “I will consider a government of national unity in which Mr sata could be Prime Minister”. Sata goes like this, “I cannot be a vice to someone who is under five and inexperienced…He has never met me to discuss a government of national unity. It’s a lie.”

  65. Just been to HHs website. He claims that if elected president he will increase Zambias economic growth rate to 10 percent per annum. Thats a fallacy. As much as i would like to believe him, Zambia needs to heavilly invest in social infrasture such as education and health for many years. The economy can grow but 10 percent is wishful thinking.

  66. #93 this is why I have been saying that it is better for Banda to win than to have Sata and HH in a merger govt. These two disagree on almost everything and I doubt whether they would even finish a day in govt without fundamentally difering. Please let us avoid useless mergers that just endanger the safety and unity of the country. On a political not HH was clever because he saw that Sata wanted to win the election and then disolve parliamwent and call for fresh elections on grounds that there is conflict in govt. At that point he would have run for five year term. Clearly HH did not want to be used. Even Banda if he wins he can dissolve parliament next year and win then rule for 5 yrs.

  67. Don’t think pipo are against Sata. Most of us who are close to the birds (forigners) are supporting him – and come 30 October ni pa bwato. HH said what do you expect when you put a monkey in the maize. So what does he expect when you put a cow in the maize field. A monkey will eat cobs only but a cow will even uproot the plant itself. So SATA will carry the day

  68. Some of you are missing the point. HH published a false claim on his website claiming that he had been endorsed for presidency by Sata – a tactic presumably meant to woo PF supporters to him. This is what Sata is refuting. Either because some of you are not very intelligent or you are blinded by your hatred of Sata, you are reading something else from this article. Very strange and sad indeed!

  69. And those saying Sata is sick did not create him. LPM retired Sikatana on medical grounds and replaced him with Kapita. You have seen for youselves who has been retired by God. So you don’t posses some ones life. Only God – SATA for presido

  70. You chaps, just form a politcal party and choose a better candidate among yourselves instead of posting opinions and critcs from USA, Britain and wherever you have sought refuge. You are cowards and have run away from the boiling politics in your own home country and today you want to act professors of politics. Mwenkoko imwe. Sata is the man for the job whether you hate his face or not. Whether you hate his age which is equally facing the MMD’s candidate RB. The MMD had attempted to push a clause in the constitution through the NCC to bar anybody who is above 65 years to stand. This was apparently aimed at fixing Sata. Now what do they have to say now with their old candidate 72 years old?

  71. Lets not always think of the past. What happened in 2006 will not happen again this time. The party with a good campaign strategy will carry the day, it does not matter whether this includes distribution of sugar and mealie-meal. My only wish is for Mr. Sata to get into plot 1 and sort out the mess this country is in. The ones I did not mention? Niba Ngwele!!!!

  72. HH IS USELESS. HE CANT JUST RESURFACE FROM NOWHERE TO BECOME PRESIDENT. THE GUY HAS NO PRESIDENTIAL QUALITIES WHATSOEVER. LIKE SOMEONE ABOVE SAID, HH WAS PICKED TO SUCCEED MAZOKA BECAUSE HE IS TONGA. THE WORST MISTAKE ZAMBIANS CAN EVER MAKE IS TO VOTE A TONGA. THE ALL OF STATE HOUSE, CABINET AND GOVT DEPTS WILL BE TONGAS. THATS THEIR CULTURE. ABASH HH. I CAN ASURE YOU BLOGGERS, COME NOV. RB WILL BE IN STATE HOUSE. THE LESS I SAY ABOUT SATA THE BETTER.

  73. Its virtually imposible to unseat the sitting government going by what has happenend in the opposition camp. The pact could have worked 4 the betterment of them, but each one of them wants to become president at all costs. This puts the RB led party to victory. Wake pipo and see sence. Ine Nalanda bane. Bye bye Cheerio!

  74. Sata did not have a heart attack, Medical Personels. He had a clot in the vein of which if there was no medical intervesion was going to lead to a heart attack.Thanx to the late, he was rushed to SA and it was removed. His heart was not affected. Are you telling the world that all pipo who die in Z die as a result of HA? If not then vote for someone who will never die, coz no one knows when they will die.

  75. Well said #98, the people are missing the point. HH is making false claims and SATA has a valid point by saying the following

    “In 2006, I had more presidential votes than H.H, I had more MPs than H.H, I had more councilors than H.H . In 2006 when he represented 3 parties, H.H reduced the Mazoka led UPND from 49 to 22 MPs, he reduced FDD from 11 to 2 MPs, he reduced UNIP from 15 to 2 MPs. So what credentials has he got to consider me as vice?”

  76. Samora died in a plan crush. Did pipo of Mozambique say all those pipo who use planes should not contest or become presindent because they will crush?

  77. People what did I say last time On Sata’s call for Unity with HH, I strongly disagreed with Sata’s suggetions. I did so because, i had to predict that Sata won’t stick to his words.

    Last week, Sata was busy, saying he should team up with HH, if HH wants to be President, then him can be Vice, insn’t it?

    And now the Chap is busy saying HH is underfive and inexperienced.

    What kind of a person is Sata, who does not think before he opens his big mouth. This really shows that Sata has no Diplomacy and Leadership qualities. I think the best he can do for Zambia is simply to quit Politics, because it shows he has nothing to offer.

  78. #105. Typical African always in denial.The point is who is more at risk!!

    The stress of being a president should not be over looked as we have just learned.

  79. I was just visiting HH’s site. I read it but unfortunately, there is a lot of talk about what he is going to do, but now how it is going to be done. He talks of free health care and free education, but he fails to tell us how he is going to make this possible. He talks about other revenue measures but fails to underline them and actually be specific..this is crap!! if i have to vote , i need each candidate to come up with a clear and detailed plan of action, not just pamilomo.

  80. Whilst there is confusion in the opposition, the MMD is busy campaigning and RB to be the next president. We need mature people with integrity who do not just open their mouths and spit poisonous venorm like the Cobra. Viva RB.
    LT AM NOT POSTING TOO QUICKLY. WHATS YOUR PROBLEM?

  81. before you totally condemn sata, did you read yesterday’s post 16th Sept 2008 where UPND SG said sata is not fit to become president and you thought he’d keep quiet over such a harsh comment. UPND called for it and so they should be ready to be told off as well. my view and conclusion is that RB will be in state house coz of vote split by PF & UPND simple. they (MCS & HH) should have learnt from 2001 & 2006 polls how vote spliting can work against the opposition, but it seems they’ll never learn hence the status quo continues MMD will be celebrating victory come november…am not a cardre of any party.

  82. Sata is just a joker whose in politics to fulfill is selfish ego, hes merely a flip flopper on issues of national importance.

  83. Wow! Mr SATA you are the man, we are behind you. My polling station is NIPA. HH will again be #3 coz of his advisors. Viva PF

  84. HH(Palin) has more to loss by not having a PF-UNDP alliance.

    It is a fact that PF is stronger than UNDP. Hence it is naive for HH-Palin to suggest that he lead such an alliance.

    It is suicidol for HH(Palin) being a politicalnovice to be perceved to ‘I know it ALL, only me can be presido …and other negative labels. This will damage his reputation.

    HH(Palin) can even start as MP and work his way up the political ladder. HH has downplayed the achievements by Mazoka to build the party to where he found.

    Being a businessman, he must surely know that you can expand the company thru alliances and acqusitions.

  85. imwe ask pipo who worked for grant thornton how much this rat hh paid them,and he says he’ll reduce taxes and increase salaries,maybe for tongas only.abash tonga bullsh#t

  86. Osama bin zed, pliz no insults. be a gentleman my brother. SATA for president. Guyz i wonder who advises HH coz he seems as if he doesnt stay in zed. Pipo we respect your party affiliation but you know that HH on his own cant do anything.BY the way who is his VP in upnd?

  87. ine ndafulwa.these cockroaches supporting hh and rb are some of the poorest in zed.guys we just want you to live like us,enjoy life a bit more.only more money will do that for you.vote sata for more money in your pockets

  88. and dont even think of saying crap about my financial position,remember i have enough to waste on bombs.i’ll bomb your father while he takes a crap

  89. I really want HH to win. I have been to his website and the policies he plans to implement are very economically sound.

    Too bad RB will make it to plot 1.

    I really really want HH to win but….I don’t know.

  90. Why do some analysts sound disappointed that Sata and HH can not form a pact? The two leaders are different in their own rights.They perceive things differently.You can form a pact if your manifestos are the same.This is not a matter of being selfish by any of the two.It is a matter of principles.They would be lying to the nation if they did so.Do not put new wine in an old wine skin or patch a torn trousers with a finished piece of cloth. That mending will indeed be temporally.The two parties should continue in their on ways.

  91. You guys, why do you always talk about tribal issue? Hoever is going to rule the country comes from a trible. You are being to cheap by giving HH a triblist tag. Unless you will tell me that we expect a tribless person to rule Zambia. Wake up and stop this illusion. Let him try his lucky!

  92. Now just see how the UPND and HH have tried to do things professionally, but Hon. Sata in his usual undermining mode has totally made his initial advances into his political death.
    If Hon. Sata is patriotic as he has nament his PF, why does he (Sata) insist on being Zambian Republican President when he is very old and probably sick from his smoking, and also knows that according to the Constitution we may have another presidential-by-election if he dies? Hon Sata knows that the life-expectancy in Zambia is 42 yrs and he is well about 72, when makes him a terrible person to elect as president especially that one former president has just died and 2008 election is impacting financially?

  93. did anybody listen to Qfm this morning?they said MMD is too strong 4 the opposition.sata is only lusaka,hh is only southern.but if they come together,maybe they can win.listen to hh on Qfm at 18:30hrs zambian time.

  94. The two leaders are different in their own rights.They perceive things differently.You can form a pact if your manifestos are the same.This is not a matter of being selfish by any of the two.It is a matter of principles.They would be lying to the nation if they did so.Do not put new wine in an old wine skin or patch a torn trousers with a finished piece of cloth. That mending will indeed be temporally.The two parties should continue in their on ways.

  95. Guys some of you seem to be posting on this blog all day long,tamubomber bafikamba? C’mon zedians laziness is the worst enemy we have pa zed dats why we lag behind in developing.pliz get to work guys.ine ind off lelo so I can afford to relax like this. Oh, you probably wash dishes at night in some eating place or you prostitutes so you don’t worry about being evaluated huh. Don’t come back to zed theres enough whores as it is pliz,we tired of lozn unza students to aids

  96. It was evident from the start of this elect. pact between the PF and UPND that you cannot have two bulls in the kraal. What would have been a great way of change of GRZ is developing into a farce now, who said what? what was said by who? , etc.Both of these Gentlemen could have given the victory most of their followers dream of day and night.Tough luck guys, RB will carry the day and do not blame “rigging” becoz when someone is in power, you need a comnbined force to remove the incumbent e.g. MMD for KK, MDC have teamed with the person they want to remove, etc, etc.So to the PF and UPND members go campiagning, not on websites, we do not vote most of us here, go Munungu,Mweemba,Chama,etc.

  97. #145……I THINK U ARE THE WASHING OF DISHES IS THE JOB U DO….U CNT SAY FROM WITHOUT….ITS POSSIBLE THAT U ARE OFF…COZ ITS NOT NIGHT…..SHAME ON U…

  98. Looking at the current candidates, I am at a loss to decide, and I know that I am not the only one. To crown it all, I only have slightly over a month to decide. I could have been happier with Magande;but thats now history. Any body give a 10 point reason why I must vote for MMD,PF,UPND,UNIP(are they still alive??). Please bloggers, do not insult me, just answer in 10 point form as requested. Thanx

  99. Chi #1. May be you are on crack from the look at how you are writing your comments.

    Sata can never be HH’s vp. Sata is very right, HH is dreaming.

    HH may you continue dreaming while your friends go to the polls.
    Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!

  100. At the age of 46, HH is the best candidate for this country. He has a rich CV. Succeded every where he has worked. National Service(military training), UNZA (graduate), Managing Director and a stable family man. You may call him a mansonist, but he has better humane values that many who we only so as christians when they prayed for LPM. A gentleman we would not be ashamed at world fora. An intellectual who will interact every where in the world. Not a chain smoker which is an achiac life style of the Nothern Rhodesia District Commissioners.

  101. sir/madam osama bin zed number 121, you need Jesus as your Lord, i have been reading your comments it seems God is very far away in your life.

  102. MEDIOCRITY AND ZAMBIANS ARE SIAMESE TWINS.IN SERIOUS COUNTRIES SATA AND RUPIAH CANT EVEN BE CONSIDERED FOR A COUNCILLOR.CHILUBA OPTED TO GET LATE LEVY THAN PICK ON TRASH LIKE SATA TO LEAD ZAMBIA.

  103. Yeah Mr MCS,guess we don´t need pipo like you cos you know all the tricks hence some under five as you put would do wonders.Maybe there shoyuld be some five or so state houses as you guys are realy power hungry.Wonder those who are voting for such pipo with such undiplomatic language have in their mind when they vote for pipo without a vision for mother Zambia.Seems you have dreams and not visions.Go plant some plants and waut till them ready

  104. Zambians,please ask yourselves this question.

    Why is that Sata is not considered to be one Zambian freedom fighter ?

    Please do some research..

  105. #151 stop dissing me.this show aint about me, i hate taking over all the time.lats talk about sata and his statements or rat boy hh

  106. we shud just forgive #1…lishilu lya pa chainama…so today thats wen he had access to read news on LT…SO he thot by writting that…its normal…wen its madness…

  107. # 168 He was NOT a freedom fighter period. I have two quetions; why has SATA not heeded his own advice to Levy not to stand as he was a sick man? So these words are good when you are telling some1 and not apply to yourself.

    Secondly, Are the Taiwanese still funding PF? It looks like PF is struggling financially, maybe that was the reason of the much talked about pact with UPND.

    Is there any indication of the veep for RB? He has to grrom a leader if he will be regarded as a good leader or he also wants to go the distance 2001 …. another Mugabe, Chiluba, Museveni, etc.And no Mandelas are being produced in these politics of today.

  108. sata’s potrait in bars banks everywhere,..ala katwishi,our babies will never stop crying,twalaleka ukutwala abana out mukulya ku zed ka.but who cares less taxes,i’ll be richer and the poor will ahave two meals instead of none

  109. I read HH’s website I must say iwas impressed, not personal attacks, but issues based, and Zambian issues being addresses.But he lost his chance of national leadership thro a pact with PF.

  110. everyone check #121 text. dont you think its woundaful having people like this pa Zed…

    YOU HEARD HIM RIGHT VOTE 4 SATA… BA HH

  111. Allow me to comment on #1’s “opening” remarks. Its unfair that you should decide all of us bloggers gay.That was really uncalled for.

    Back to todays story…Miceal Sata is in my opinion, not fit to rule the country. He is a man who operates out of emotion. Today he says this and tomorrow its a different story. he seems to be a pro at name calling as well! let us be wise in our voting this time!

  112. Chisokone Chisokone Chisokone, we are back with a bang. One Zambia – One Nation
    We told you MMD were not serious in 1991, they have confirmed their inability to govern the nation, UNIP waikatako wapya!

    Vote for experience, Vote RB

  113. no bush we dont.these are seriuos matters,there pipo starving in zed,be reasonable consider the plyt of others.vote sata for less hungry mouths pa zed

  114. imwe ba SATA and HH you are wasting time why are you being greedy and defiant. You two should unite and stand as one then later one can be president. Why do you want to give power to the current governemnt. HH you just came into politics reduce yourself and become vice when SATA becomes presidnet is it not better than what you are now? You pls think!!!!!!!!!

  115. People why has the PF foreign policy changed? Remember the Sata’s Taiwanese friends lost and are now in the oposition, so no more Taiwan support hence the shift in foreign policy. The other thing is Taiwane is in good books with China main land.

  116. I just read Michaelsata.co.zm, I must say, yes also addressing issues of Zambia.But 1 thing caught my attention, The mission statement is right at the bottom and rhetoric all over the page. I had to look for the mission, but very presice when I found it.I have two contradictory statements, can some1 help me;

    “the separation of powers (and specifically to the introduction of a Government effectively headed by a Prime Minister along British lines)”

    “respect for Zambian traditional values”

    When you use a british admin. set-up without coming up with a zambian one, how are zambian values being respected?

  117. Its good. They have websites. But apart from informing Zambians abroad, who don’t even vote, the websites will not add any value to their campaign.
    SMS is the best way, these guys can campaign in Zambia.

  118. Ba PF mukonda ma deal. On one side you say you are strong on the other you say you want a merger. Those who are not sure of themselves are the ones calling for mergers. Each man for himself and Zambia for us all.

  119. I don”t think if Zambians are willing to vote for a comedian.We need a serious person not someone who will come and create enemies for us due to lack of diplomatic lauguage.

  120. #188 My exact sentiments manje no matter how many pipo tell them they will just go there own ways. Fyaliba greedy ifima leaders ifi so power hungry.

  121. Let me propose a wise idea for HH and SATA listen very carefully, bite yourselves hard until the following occurs:

    1. The VULTURE’s beak breaks and goes nimb.

    2. The HYENA stops its tuanting laugh.

    3. Mutual agreement in greed is reached clearly (peace settlement).

  122. SATA is the one who is selfish, remember he had to fire all the other members from MMD so that he can become the sole runner after Chiluba. He was disappointed hence the formation of PF where he has appointed himself party president. Whoever talks against him is booted out (Dictatorial tendencies). He proposed a pact and UPND welcomed it but again changed his staement (Inconsistence). Basata Taata katusheni twapapata. Lekeni umwana a teke.

  123. pa number 121 pali insult and you think people can vote for Sata by insulting them thats why his loosing even this time coz people dont like this behavour so plse osama we want people to vote for Sata stop this nonsence.

  124. We are indeed in a hopeless situation as a country and we need new people to come on the political scene. Lets us pray to God to give us a leader who cares about this country. RB, Sata and HH are just as hopeless as the situation we are in as a country. God heal Zambia

  125. My advise to RB is, win the elections and arrest all those plunderers remember what they did to the big man KK, what goes around comes around.

  126. There should be no pact between Sata and HH, period!It would be wrong if they did so. Sata is a finished leader without direction. A man without a foreign policy will take us no where. Even the US has fear and respect for China. We have so much debt with China and yet we continue to borrow to survive. Sata will do well to continue as an opposition leader for checks and balancies only.Remember that the world is watching. The kind of leader we come up will simply show whether we know what is good for our country.Recyled politicians will make us poorer.RB will never follow LPM’s ideas. Each person is unique and has his own leadership characteristics.

  127. Sata will never be president of Zambia because he is only popular among Bembas. Unfortunately the other two candidates are also sectional ones : RB is popular among Easterners and HH is popular among the Southerners.

    Unfortunately, RB is going to win because the opposition is in tatters. In addition, RB is going to use state resources. What a pity that the country will be lumbered with a president who is everything else but presidential material.

  128. sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata

  129. Mr. Sata is a dictator, he is not democratically elected in his own party PF, how can he lead the country democratically? He knows about everything, how are proffesionals (economists, engineers, lawyers …) going to advise him on issues that have potential to affect national development? I simply enjoy his commedy, if you found me at one of his rallies its not that I support him, I would be there just to have fun, to release stress.

    He has alot of potential to be the next Mugabe. HE IS A BOSS NOT A LEADER!

  130. Ba Sata and Ba Hichilema please twapapata form a pact dont look at yourselves but us the people of zambia. We are the voters and we know what we are talking about. We shouldnt split the votes again. Make it extremely hard for mmd to rig the elections by forming a pact. Sata president and Hichilema vice or the other way round.Twapapata or else it’s beta not to waste time voting and change nothing!

  131. Look at Ian Khama (Botswana), Kabila (DRC), Kikwete(Tanzania), etc.Young and able.The freedom fighters era is gone. Therefore, to vote for Sata or RB is being unti-revolutionally, short-sighted, tribal, backward, sleepy,stagnated, etc. The country needs to go forward. Why should the contracts supported by both Sata and MMD for government officers be selective. In the defence forces, only officers are allowed contracts. Non commissioned officers are denied contracts.These people get their pension money and are put back on the pay roll. This is plunder of national funds!May God help Zambia. The world is watching all this.

  132. guyz i have seen these hands symbols just after the date and time of every comment. is it for UPND, it looks like for upnd but sata for president

  133. # 212 I have given up and alot of others here. These two bulls in the same kraal, something has to give, and democracy has just done that.

  134. Its interesting to see how Tonga’s can’t come to terms that they have no political strategy. You are using John McCain tactics whilst forgetting that this is Africa…very few people access your silly website. Dream on because your HH is going no where. SATA for President.

  135. Have observed that most of you posting on this blog are abroad, now whatever you bad you say about SATA,HH or RB is useless coz you wont even vote. We are the ones who are suffering here and we have a choice of voting. If u are not in zed and wont vote just shut. We are serious about the future of this country thats why we are voting. Say what you say but you cant change people’s minds, we have already decided just waiting for 30/10/08

  136. sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata sata VIVA,COPPERBELT, LUSAKA, VIVA

  137. Ka Mulongoti…

    UPND followers try to be realistic regardless of how much you corrosively hate Sata. Lets not ignore the issue at hand…HH lied on his website that Sata had endorsed him and PF is refuting that. So why the panic and hate speech from UPND supporters? Its either you are not too intelligent or as usual trying to sound sharp whilst garnishing your arguments with tribalism. You are going no where basa…Don’t even cheat yourselves because already there is a PF team in Northwestern Province. VIVA SATA VIVA SATA

  138. The truth hurts. Sata is poor because of his long over working bolo. In future, if at all he still has a future, tell him to invest in agriculture.

  139. What worrie me is the excitement in among Tongas when it seems one of their own has go at Plot 1. I will never forget when it seemed Mazoka was winning on man insulted the all street.

    I will never make that mistake again

  140. HH has nothing to lose by not supporting Sata to form PF-UPND PACT. HH is protecting Zambian against users in the name of Sata and PF. HH is too smart to be tricked. Without HH’s support to MMD, RB would not stand a chance. Viva HH for saving Zambia.
    HH is building his own UPND so that no one will doubt his potentail and capabilities in future. No one will say HH only rose to power because of Sata. And so, let PF got it alone if thhey have what it takes to win this aand future elections.

  141. What worries me is the skepticism by tribalists who always want to paint us Tongas as excited people when they can not remove their own log in their eyes. Shame on cheap cold-heart and ill-motivated tribalists.

  142. After listening to sata on radio phoenix this morning, im shocked that there are people who actually support the guy. I think it is just blind-followers who can support sata

  143. Well maestro it wasn’t PF cadres who beat that old man VJ (even if he probably deserved it), and we don’t make up ridiculous stories about people being ‘poisoned’ when in fact it’s just plain old kadoyo… So you can understand how people get the impression of “excited people”. Denial is not a river in Egypt

  144. #226 you have driven the point home. It appears PF which claims to be strong is the one looking for this merger with HH. Sata even went to Monze to beg on radio sky for HH’s support yet he claims he can go it alone. Those who are strong like RB and HH are campaigning on their own. Now even before the election is held PF is already blaming its loss on UPND, what nosense is this? PF you say you are strong so stop talking about mergers. HH is not in this election as a matter of life or death, he is their to offer people of Zambia a choice, period. Also in 2006 HH promised that if he does not win in 2011 he will return to his business. He does not want to be a career politician.

  145. For heaven’s sake where is Pro.Chirwa! come and stand on independence ticket we will support you, we are tired Hii Hii with no vision no brain except tribe Tonga!

  146. the diaspora people are making the most noise on this site and that noise wont translate into votes! 218, please brief those of us willing to listen, what is on the ground and what chances do RB and Sata have seeing as they are the front runners? Do people take Sata seriously, coz going by the media reports we see in the disapora he looks and acts like a cameleon. Is RB better placed? I dont like Sata’s language and public demeanour he does not have the stamina for Presidency in the area of mannerism and I wonder if he is trainable at his age. RB, looks like we are stuck with him? Please pipo at home, comment maybe am wrong and prejudiced!!!

  147. osama useless huh? my friend one you’ll also be useless,if ever you have a rich dad to send you to expensive schools out of zed, oh u dont dats why you wash dishes hahahah. dats what money does mate,nindalaba shantumpika so

  148. osama useless huh? my friend one you’ll also be useless,if ever you have a rich dad to send you to expensive schools out of zed, oh u dont dats why you wash dishes hahahah. dats what money does mate,nindalama shantumpika so

  149. #229 It was poison, not made up, and very unfortunate. dont bring this up again. Nkumbula was murdered…all fingers point to the north….VJ deserved what he got, u see in the north you guys insult each other and come together when its time to steal. in the south we do not like “Judas” and VJ is just that Vernon Judas. Tonga Bulls

  150. Osama and I have Said good bye for now.. but remember to vote wisely pabwato, we need a positive change, dont be scared God is with us, we are giving a best example of barabus.. God will annoint the leader we will choose( he will annoint Sata)Amen.

    Osama and Bush, I and I HAVE SPOKEN, those who have ears let them hear… the Ship is heading North with Captain Sata. Good bye for now

  151. I holder a voters card but so far no one has impressed me.Im lost for choice wish we had other candidates as well.We are not looking for a perfect person but people lets be careful with who we entrust to run the affairs of the nation.

  152. Maestro Hhehhehhehhe Cheap lies wont do any Good for your Tonga posse
    do it your own way. The qualification for state President is different from the qulification for UPND president.
    Qualification for UPND President – Tonga

  153. I woul not mind if sata won and declared this nation a one party state. No politician at the moment gets closer to him. Viva pa bwato

  154. This chi Maestro Hhehhehhehhe reminds me of how exited Tongas were in 2001 at our compound, when mazoka (mhsrp) was leading, stating that ‘state house yanwukila mana’ they were rejoicing, drinking and finished all the money given for campaign and started using person money which also finished and at the end went block and after the final results they all went in Limbos and were never seen for days! I presumbly thats what will to this guy Maestro Hhehhehhehhe!! INSANSA SHINYA UBULANDA!!!!!!!

  155. wow! president SATA that was nice on Radio Phoenix. Conraturations big man, we are behind you. obviously listners have seen how popular you sre now. VIVA SATA

  156. sata is not bad if only he can work on his vulga language,i think HH would be suitable for 2011,then he will have gained a little exposure and experience,this is no time for political erros or job on training. being president isnt that simple,i have confidence that sata can turn arnd things in this country RB isnt bad either

  157. Sata is the devil’s son he comes from the world ruled by his father satan as the name sata from the name satan he is a prince in the kingdom of hate

  158. Viva Sata to all right thinking Zambians Vote for him,He is the only capable leader,please Zambians lets stop experimenting RB will take us no where with his Crooks.

  159. hh can make a good leader from the look of things as he is young, dynamic and intelligent. he must only be careful not to be drawn into cheap politics whereby he forgets his agenda.

    he should avoid the quarells with sata etc and concentrate on genuine issues. pull yourself together hh, otherwise rb will carry the day if you guys(the opposition)continue publicly embarrasing yourself.

    we all know that rb is no presidential material but has the state(financers) behind him. so it means 24/7 campaining with help of the cadres flat out and do not forget the rural areas. the rural chaps need to see you in person. i remain watching

  160. If we vote for Sata its better we even vote for Diffikoti or Biklon coz they are o the same. We cant trust this old man today he says this thing 2mor another thing, thats why he even supported 3rd term and remember he was the last one to get get out UNIP to join MMD. He imposed himself as PF leader and no in the party talks. If you want try him go on, but me I see another Zim in Zed.

  161. EVER HEARD OF -OPPORTUNITY COST…I BET THEZ NEED TO APPLY IT ON THIS CASE.

    AS FOR #1-WACILAMONA ATI BALAKUTASHA,KANSHI BAKUMWENAMO.U’V MED YO FATHER A SAD MAN,I FEEL SORRY 4 HIM,SHAME ON U.PIPO LIKE U ARE A PITIFULL EXCUSE 4 HUMAN BEINGS,AND A SHAME TO YO FAMILY AND ZAMBIA AT LARGE.

  162. 262 Ask Magande if he has support from Southern. HH shares the values of Southern province. He is a true farmer. In 1991 and 1996 Southern voted for Chiluba who neglected farming and reduced tongas to beggars. We do not want to vote for traders any more. If HH does not stand southern will vote for RB because he comes from a farming province and he is also a farmer. Lusaka and copperbelt people like sata because they are traders like him. HH has farms across southern province so when he says he will fix agriculture they believe him because he is truly a farmer.

  163. Mwebantu tamufwabwino if you have not said anything on Joyce Nonde. What has this woman done kanshi? ala muletwebako. I have not seen any thing wrong in what she does apart from just speaking on behalf of the voiceless that is all. Iwe no. 11 uletekanya otherwise mwakulailetelela.

  164. Ba chris niboza iyo, they only vote for him coz he is from there. Lets say HH wasnt standing and Magande stood. they would have voted for him

  165. HH panse, plz dig his past. Da chap minted frm FTJ gov. during privatization da chap got nchekelko frm buyers K23bn frm where withn 10 yrs, bufy. this chap is a Mason, jst like da Mazoka used to be. He practices rituals…Tongas do not be deceived.. you home boy can even walk on air…we want true leaders not a capitalist like HH…out. SATA for plot 1. as for chi matobo RB – out ….

  166. How did chiluba reduce Tongas to beggars?#266 try to be more objective. U niggaz never cease to amaze me how personal you are with people you dont like. your boy HH hasnt made any significant investment in his home village and you still blame other tribes for that wake up.

  167. Sata’s rubbish talk has just given RB a clear way to plot 1. Its clear to me he doesnt have the country interest at heart. I guess even this time around am not voting

  168. Bunch of desktop political analysts, you’ve got nothign more constructive to dow ith your time? While you blog, people are earning cash … ba chule.

    Vote at your own peril, election results have already been given to RB.

  169. #257 No way we are not of our minds. how can we vote for PF if we are right thinking? we have not forgotten that FJT is PF so is Xavier Chungu. we need to take these thievs’ heads to the block. Sata is on record ahving said that he will end the fight against corruption; and by the way he is the only candidate who has been blutant and straight to the point on that. for now however we wish him a stress free path to the resting place. Its over.

  170. Sata rocks,he is a crowd puller whether you like it or not,he is rulling this time. If sata is on radio,the whole contry tune their radios. when did you ever hear RB talking sense? As for HH,he does not even appeal to an average illitrate zambian. Bonse imwe muleibepa fye,zambia is just more than these useless bloggers. Viva Sata

  171. george bush wamano sana.only a wise person praises his foe if it benefits all.sata ku plot 1.ala ndebwela pa zed.why waste the bally’s money learning here.pa bwato.bush i’ll send you an air ticket mate

  172. #266, do u know how yo home HH aquired those farms across Tonga Land?
    if u do nt know this calculator boy is a chance. Bought thosr farms using underhand methods during privatization of companies and state farms as well those farms which owed lima Bank money… today u r praising him for that.. get to the past u punk..HH has jst punked u.
    remember he is a member of the World Secret Masons fellowship. HH wares chimukanjo cha black and white gloves a that joint. open is boot for his ride!! no one opens it. HH & RB panse
    SATA for plot 1.

  173. Not that photo again. LT dont you know that this site can be accessed web wide eh. Osati kutisebanya na chi gabhenga ichi.

    At least try one when he has cleaned is teeth and buttoned up.

    Please let us try to be smart eh.

    LT,I thought we had talked about this before.

  174. #268 the reason why MMD did not pick Magande is because he can not marshal support from southern. He has tried to be an MP in Magoye but he was told “no thank you” and also do not be cheated about HH’s wealth. HH’s wealth is mainly his cattle. As for the theft part of it we shall wait and see what you will say about Chiti Bwalya the one RB is courting to be VP. Chiti Bwalya owns Goldman insurance its clientel is 75% goverment. These are businessmen who nogetiate for good deals and if the chaps in govt cant negotiate properly whose fought is it. People like Sata in govt cant read and understand a 200 pages contract

  175. HH Is Under 5 Why warry about some one who is still getting Injections,Think twice my fellow country men and weman.
    VIVA SATA VIVIA PF

    You Pipo outside the Country talking bad about Mr Sata, just know we are voting for him wetheir lose or win PF is the one. RB Sugar DAdy should go back to the farm and look after the Babies at 71 Ah

  176. Just read the news. So it means that RB is going to state house. You only have to do the maths. The govt has also announced that it will increase the price it pays for a bag of maize and will increase the number of people eligible to receive fertiliser subsidies. This basically means that people in all rural areas except southern and northern will vote for MMD. The opposition is bickering amongst themselves whilst MMD is busy actually campaigning!

  177. WAKO NI WAKO…BA LENJE BA TANSHI…ABESU….SATA IN PLOT 1 COZ HE HAS KAM OUT TO ACCEPT EVRY TRIBE. ABASH CALCULATOR BOY! ABASH SUGAR DADDY! BANTU BOTATWE KWISA! NANGA BALOZI BALIKU?

    viva PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

  178. tongas are the same sda chaps always talking about the anti christ,i gues they’re trying to pave the way for hh the anti christ

  179. #280 you are so ignorant about issues. HH never bought a single state farms. He bought all his farms from individuals. He sarted with 1 in chisamba with twenty cattle and as they multiplied he kept buying farms. If you have limited information it is better to ask than to make unfounded allegations.

  180. Come October 30 the man who has been concerned about Zambia all along will carry the day it is long overdue. RB taken from retirement cannot claim he knows better than someone who has been in the fore front all this time. HH having made some cash does not warrant plot1 where have you been all this time when the people of Zambia have been suffering? This leaves just one man who has been concerned with the plight of the poor and the Zambian people in general, his track records speaks for itself and that man is Ba Michael Chilufya Sata!

  181. Ron ati osama needs jesus? which ron are you shikapwasha,the whole lot of you hon. minister shooting me like this c’mon get back to work.you dont have long ka, sata abwela

  182. Sata has never said anything concrete, but people’s character and tribe. RB is nyanja, HH is tonga, sata is bemba, and all these love it. They can die for what they are. They will never change. It is not wrong for them to love it. It is wrong for rthem to say they are better leaders becuase they are bembas,lozis, nyanjas, etc.The tribal arguement aws used in 2006, it never took nobody nowhere.

    We want frsh arguement or improvements on 2006 arguement.

    Mazoka, Mwanawasa had foreign treatment, after 2years they are gone. Sata is just from treatment, is he different? Give him 2years and we can dicuss. Chiluba is trecking RSA. He is still there because he has no stress!

  183. Sata is not a good leader….he likes uplifting himself and thinks that others are nothing. Pl…se basata we have had enough.

  184. Sata alibe ma paper that is why alimbikila ma politics. His friends are now in private businesses. Tina mupuzila mu civics but namanje akali mumapolitics. Muuzen mutu wanu ati kuli word called retire.

  185. CAN TELL FROM YOU COMMENTS THAT YOU ARE BORED PERSON AND USE MOST OF YOU TIME ON THE INTERNET WAITING TO BE THE FIRST TO WRITE NONSENSE.

  186. RB sugar daddy cant go thru he has no manifesto HH mand sata please merge mwala splita amavotes dont alow MMD to go thru they will hefty salaries mean while the common one is fighting.

  187. To be president of Zambia, you need to be atleast 35 years old. To say HH is an under-five when he is 46yrs old is a serious insult to all of us 50years and below. Please comment.

  188. You people condemning ba sata, what have you done for Zambia yourself aparting from washing dishes in m’cdonalds. WE R in zed and we will vote 4 sata coz he relates to our suffering. Big up osama bin zed

  189. Sata is so agry. I wouldnt want to be going to the airport in a foreign country to receive such a person. The mouth is dark due to rotten teeth.

  190. #310 we are in foreign countries studying because Sata and company destroyed standards at UNZA. Other countries now even question the ligitimacy of unza degrees. This is what happens when kaponyas are allowed to lead a country. They do not value education so they destroy it. Here I know it will take me 4 years and I will be through with my degree but at UNZA it can even take 10 years because of closing opening closing.

  191. # 13. So you see the people that matter are us because unlike you we will vote and for Sata for that matter. So keep yapping on this blog and c all sata names but aleteka.

  192. Vote the UPND’s HH for serious and real change. What did they (70 years and older) not do since 1964 that they (more thena 70 yrs old) think they can do now and in the future for Zambia? Someone said, Zambia was at par in level of Malasia in 1964, but where are we now compared to Malasia with Hon Sata and his so-called experience in UNIP and Chiluba’s MMD that plundered the nation? Same goes to RB, what does he think he (RB) will do for us now that he failed to do in his UNIP days? Vote wisely ffor the young generation of Zambians -real Zambians for that matter – and not characters with questionable Citizenship from Congo.

  193. #315 I have already bought a ticket on emirates specifically to come to vote so my mbuya HH has my vote. At least he will not be humiliated like Nevers Mumba ba former vice president no vote.

  194. Tribal tirades flying all over.Why can’t you people discuss issues here.People saying Tonga supporting HH only crap …. Which bemba supports HH anyway? Why should I even go there. Sell your candidates and their manifestos period.This tribal rubbish is meant for the uneducated, please discuss issues here.

  195. The competition is between PF and MMD. UPND stands no chance. You cannot win elections with support from only one province. This time FDD and UNIP are not supporting UPND.
    SATA, this is your chance.
    Wi and sweep the country clean.

  196. One thing UPND and HH must know is that SATA asked for a merger becoz that is what the poeple asked for.Its a shame that HH thinks he is that popular to win the elections.HH will never rule this country coz he has shown us how greedy and selfish he is.He does not care for the poor who are the electorate.
    to my fellow PF supporters,lets go in very large numbers on 30/10/2008 and vote for our President mr Michael Chilufya Sata.
    PF PF PF PF
    forever with PF.

  197. Nice one #320, allow me to re-phrase your comment as:
    “This accusation of TONGAS AT BEING TRIBAL is tribal-rubbish and is meant for the uneducated, please discuss issues here.”

    Can someone please tell me which non-Bemba supports Hon. Sata genuinely using English or Lozi or Nyanja (Tumbuka, Ngoni ..) or Nyengo or …?

    What educational credentials does Hon Sata have?

  198. #321 and 323, I urge you to wait and see the results for the October 2008 elections. Then and only then shall you understand why the most-careful politician UPND’s HH has not merged with PF’s Sata.

    You are in for a RUDE shock, my fellow Zambians!

    Ask yourselves why it was Hon Sata who was busy pressuring the UPND to merge with PF and not vice-versa? Sata’s PF are broke – not Taiwan this time around! HH and the UPND have been campaigning since 2006 and the fruits of their hard work will testify come November 4, 2008.

  199. FORKS, THERE IS MORE TO LEADERSHIP THAN JUST BEING A FORMER UNVERSITY STUDENT. GET A LIFE. THATS WHY SOME ATTACKS ARE SO BASELESS.

  200. Sorry Bane but ba sata balewina, iam not bemba and definitely not from northern or luapula but i support sata because he puts the interests of zambians first. This is probably the only country in the world where foreigners come and treat you like slaves.

    You guys washing dishes uko ku mangalande know that when u misbehave there, you will be on the first flight home but here its different. We want a zambia where we the owners are dignified whether rich or poor.

  201. is mwiinga terminally ill or what. he is missing this debate. we needed his tuchawa very much. bum dread say something now my friend. where you in the sondashi camp or what.

  202. 283 You know MS well!! Read 283 comment that is what MS is known for. Like him hate him he is our man. People with brains behave like Lubinda. Very intelligent and not in a hurry but he has sold himself as a good leader and he is working for the people. Others want to rush to State house on ideas they did not work for neither did they have any plans! Bwato – bwato – bwato!

  203. I think we should give someone like Sata a chance now to do what he had promised from 2006 and then try HH for what he is promising now in 2011. As for RB what has he promised us previously…nothing, that is very worrying indeed!

  204. #327, we are on national duties in terms of education here. We are not washing dishes – at least me personally!

    We have been though UNZA and other respectable UNIVERSITIES in the WORLD and we are carrying the BARNNER FOWARD for failures in school- who failed to get college/university. Have you heard of PROFESSOR CHIRWA, some of us are getting near to him in education now!

  205. Sata may have no papers but he is running for president and if you are honest enough you will agree with me that he is quite popular.
    the questin is why he is so popular?
    If you u find the answer to this then you will no issues against him. HH may be a good guy but he hasnt done enough to sell his-self
    Alway talking bout macro economic stuff.
    its like he is only for those who pride themselve to be more learned than others. To rub solt in the wound he is just like any other Tonga always mad about something get a life man….

  206. Now that Sata believes that the chinese are no longer infesters but investors does that mean that all you PF supporters are in agreement with him?

  207. Take a leaf from Hanif Adams who wanted to become a FAZ Presido from No where without belonging to any FAZ committee. NDIYE BA EH EH ABO.

  208. Basa amubaleke aba batasilwi mabege. Those in support of real change go underground and start working. You cant beat some people with aguements. Its in their blood to ague from without. Some people make good salesperson. They can sell anything even TOSH. Wise men dont join them in the aguements but they go underground and work and produce results. There is that saying about empty tins njindaluba achali. And the other one about agueing with……. Amubeleke no bachende aswebo kuno tulibajisi mbuli bwa momu. ATI NKUYUMAYUMA.

  209. you are just hurting each other for nothing. politics is about good governance. whether MC SATA or HH come to power, the fact is that every zambian would be able to benefit or suffer from their policies.it would be naive for these two rascals to come up with policies that would benefit a single tribe like you maggots would want us to beleive. if SATA reduces taxes everyone would benefit. if HH scraps educational fees all would benefit. so whats this hurting going on here. you are all sane enough to debate well. unless you want us to beleive that you are all damcels then continue with your tribal debates. as if you are kids sure. i hope you will all be ashamed of yourselves you dogs.

  210. My comments disappeared. Anyway, I smell a political struggle and this pact wasn’t going to work. Whilst the Post, HH and Hon. Sata attack RB, they’re not talking about the real issues at stake.
    I’m disgusted with the Post and its editor. After telling us all to hoot agains the 3rd term, they are now siding with the man who instigated the 3rd whilst insulting us Zambians. Hon. Sata should tell us why he supported the 3rd term and why he left MMD when LPM was picked. What changed then and what has changed now. We seem to forget very easily don’t we. Has RB attacked any HH and Mr. Sata? Let them discuss issues and not accuse RB of tribalism, his late wife was bemba.DOH!

  211. guyz im organising a party for pf suppoters and we are going to invite our friends in mmd to celebrate our victory on the 5th november,2008. sugar daddy, bin laden zed. george bush,von goeth, kaoma and many more, you are real pipo. Lets keep the spirit and come 30 october we are ruling. pf

  212. #333 Mbala Boy it’s not that simple. Firstly at the rally where Sata was misquoted as saying he will “chase the chinese and the indians” what he said was he will chase investors who are either not bringing anything to the country (e.g. some Chinese market traders I can think of who have no earthly reson to be given an ‘investor’s’ license), OR not treating their employees as they are required to be treated under Zambian law (e.g. blowing them up, shooting them or making them work barefoot in a coal mine). If they don’t fall into these two categories then they are welcome, and that has always been Sata’s position as I understand it.

  213. Well well well…I wish ngakwalebokumona umuntu uuoavotela,pantu bambi ukulanda balanda fimbi noku vota baka vota fimbi…awe mwandi.

  214. #338. Conman you have spoken sense. You are a very well baked Zambian.Now One important point to note is that RB has just been drown by selfish MMD old fishes to become president. He has no political agenda what so ever.He may now bring back all the old fellows (UNIP and MMD)who are failing to make it wherever they are.There shall be no retirement of government workers who are 55yrs and above. His argument will be that if him who is 72 is serving why should all those 60 yr olds retire? On this matter, MMD has twisted and thrown away the constitution.Retirement in this govt has been selective. Please comment Conman you sound ndiwe wa nzelu.

  215. ITS ONLY LOSER CADRES OF SATA AND HH WHO ARE MAKING NOISE US WINNERS OF RB ARE QUITE BCOZ WE KNOW PLOT 1 IS OURS FOR KEEPS. LET LOSERS KILL EACH EACH.

  216. MMD believes as a party that the best kind of togetherness is built on the right kind of apartness. All people of all shades and colours with their divergent views are well come. It is not a one man show. It is democracy at play. Such dismal blend is what constitute democracy. Woe to the opposition, their party presidents are their gods to who they accredit their livelihood and whoever dares to challenge these false immortals is declared a lunatic fit for expulsion. I’m not shallow minded in analysis. What works is a team and not one man. You should appreciate this. What is the point in buying a finished Tonga or Bemba wreck of a vehicle on the basis that it has one good tyre?

  217. sorry guyz im so excited about the victory we are going to have hence forgot to tell you the venue. its either state house or parliament building we have to wait for the aproval from our next President MR MICHEAL CHILUFYA SATA. thanx guyz for supporting PF

  218. Why is this news? I said it last week. There is no way that HH and Sata can form an alliance. Both are power hungry chaps who are fiercely eyeing the Presidency. But anyway, who cares!

  219. This pride already means defeat.For how long has he(SATA)been trying to get into statehouse?Wow!! it’s a pity that he doesn’t see things as they really are.

  220. iwe james du know how many times abraham lincoln lost elections,yet his recorded to be one of the best presidents of the u.s.a. leka sata his time has finally come.thanks sata for you endurance tukamivotela basata wesu

  221. HH will never rule this country as long as a remains Tonga.Let him accept a pact to form the next govt with Sata, so that he can prove to us that he will never practice tribalism.

  222. By not entering into a pact, Mr Hichilema and Mr Sata have endorsed Mr Banda as Republican President for the coming three years. All the noise that people are now making now are just for formality so that we can continue being counted as a democratic nation. Selfishness doesn’t pay. When are we going to open our eyes to reality as political parties in Zambia. Let us be strategic guys otherwise we are doomed with the MMD for many years to come!

  223. #356 stop contradicting yourself….. you want HH votes, u want to steal UPND votes and when ur ubwato gets to state house you will do whatever u want with HH… heck nah, did we ask PF for a pact…heck nah… we dont need PF but it looks like all PF members are asking for a pact… we dont want ubwato we have enough modern transport. Sata can only live for so long

  224. #259 Chris, I agree with you , Sata is a moving rotten muggot fested coffin, can’t anyone see right thru that? He looks like a toothless bulldog in this picture anyway!

  225. i know bro thanx for the concern.with that good heart am sure you care about the poor,if you’re not among them that is, pliz vote sata

  226. HH===== HAKA WHO? Who r u anyway? wouldn’t vote 4 a Tonga anyway, why vote 4 someone who will speak a language I will never have interest to know? Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooser HH! together with SATA, Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooser!

  227. #367 I am praying that the wrath of God who created mankind, including the Tongas, fall upon you. Tongas did not create themselves, they were created by God just like anyother tribe.

  228. #369 egyptianz were also created by God but he destroyed them for abusing his pipo.wrath on tongas instead.ulichipuba wemutonga

  229. Sata was in the Kaunda and Chiluba governments. RB was in the independence government. Let the young ones have a chance. It can be HH or someone else but let us move on.

  230. Go HH goooooooooooooooooooooooo. You can insult as much as you want but when God says yes no one can say no. Those who say HH is masonic whatever that is, be informed that Hakainde is a member of the Seventh-Day Adventists Church. If that is what you mean by being masonic then I agree with you. The guy is simply good and now because the Sata supporters have seen that their man cannot match up to HH’s credentials, they resort to insults. God will judge your every action, word and thought. It is just a friendly warning.

  231. Iwe Ichilema too much lies. You think by taking cheap lies you can convince strong PF members monga ine?? Desperate situations brings desperate measures. hh is panicking big time. How about being “endorsed”? Was that his tramp card. Xpose taikonda………..

  232. HH FOR HAKAI VOTELY HEKA, THE ONLY TONGA WHO GOT TO RULLING ZAMBIA WAS MAZOKA HH WILL NEVER BE A LEADER EVEN THE PEOPLE OF SOUTHERN PROVINCE ARE NO LONGER SUPPORTING HIM CHECK YOUR FACTS AND U WILL FIND THAT HH HAS LOST POPULARITY IN HIS PROVINCE.VIVA SATA

  233. The King Cobra has been de-fanged!! HH has taken a lot of of his urban support base and RB has been quietly but effectively campaigning in the provinces…verdict RB to Plot 1 HH to regroup for 2011 and SATA…hopefully the end of the road!

    my work is done…

    Zambia deserves better!

  234. london girl at #105

    are you absolutely sure about what you are saying?

    Milpark Hospital clinic confirmed Sata’s admision.
    “He has been admitted to the cardiac care unit, which is a cardiac intensive care unit,” said Amelda Swartz, spokeswoman for Milpark Hospital in Johannesburg.
    “He is in a stable condition,” she said.
    Swartz said Sata had suffered a heart attack before coming to the hospital, and would have an angiogram on Saturday afternoon as part of his treatment.
    Lusaka Times April 2008

  235. If all the Tongas were going to vote for HH and all the Bembas were going to vote for SATA then who is going to be the next president? Stop tribal politics. If the Bembas were the kawalalas, why do you have courts and prisons in all the nine provinces? You shallow minded pipo.Go for issues. You will not get rich just because someone from your tribe is in State house. Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

  236. HH ni Zii (HH is … – shhh – don’t mention it as of now). Vote for the ray real of change and hope that Zambains can believe in by casting your vote on UPND’s HH.

  237. Rupia pashi! lesa ku mulu.

    Rupia !wamuyayaya mwayayaya abelelele.

    Chisokone chisokone.

    vote for Rb and you will see all the above coming back.Even school and markets will be closed to go and receive him.Viva change

  238. Not wanting to merge with someone whos’s party’s manifesto you do
    not share is not selfishness. Why do people form different partys’?
    Why merge merely for convenience of grabbing power? Labelling HH as
    tribalist without any credible basis is backward. Look at his policies and issues. Why do we Zambians still have this tendancy of
    fear of progressive ideas from youthful intellectuals? We still want
    to fetch leaders from under the rocks in the Jurrasic park. Zambians
    will have to be dragged screaming from the ‘comfort’ of their stone-age habitats to the 21st century.

  239. I like that one !!!!!!! looking for job with birth certificate ???
    you guys are funny enough…you need honourly degrees in joke breaking.

  240. Ubwato bwakwa Noah did not sink and that`s what is going to happen to ba sata, go on with your hate comments but we are still pa boat on the way to state house, tuleteka come november 2008

  241. zambia is ours. let us find a leader who will make our country be a place of pride to our children and greate grand children.let us make a wise vote and ensure a credible leader is put in place.

  242. osama nifwebo.. come on guys lets not wast time writing when we all know that sata is winning. i and osama have stated. vote PF

    2011 OSAMA AND I, VOTE VIVA PF, VOTE BUSH, VOTE OSAMA…

  243. ba shikulu ba sata ala muichusha fye you will nevr ever rule zambia.I REPEAT MR SATA YOU WILL NEVER RULE THIS COUNTRY NO MATTER WAT.MULEKE UKUICHUSHA

  244. Osama, The flags do not represent country of posting, but rather server hosting country.The EU flag appears to illustrate that there are several linking portals that have been used to facilitate fast internet access and information transmission( they call it Bandwith)Because of this server portal colaboration access and transmission is managed efficiently without drag.They are more internet users in EUrope at any given time than the whole of Africa so just imagine the level of traffic.Hence the colabo leads to efficiency and above all productivity.The same for Sata and HH wish they could learn from this scientific achievemnt.

  245. Funny things happening here. Zambians abroad you are missing the fun.I attended the rally. The big man endorsed HH.Now says he didn’t.was he on crack? He should at list said it was a slip of the tongue.I should have respected that.Not what he is saying now. I will vote RB. The way he cared for his late sick wife amused me.The man is strong and has a heart. HH should join MMD if we wants to president in future.SATA is time was in the mugabe era. Very primitive. I respect the man though.

  246. Sata is a good man was #3 to chiluba in MMD then. He did completly nothing. he was kicking matcheting pipo in chawama the.The kaponyas have follwed him in PF.I can see the future. R.B was in unip. He doesn’t believe in tribalism and partism. Thats way he is a cool sugar daddy. He will be the president ,will make the boy HH foreign minister to be groomed.violent SATA minister of local goverment to fight with maketeers and bakaponya,Magande vice president,maureen minister women and child divelopment…etc wait and see. Viva R.B

  247. Lets all get some sleep please. Let the peoples mandate prevail and be willing to contribute positively in which ever capacity you can.Whether marketeer,Pastor….Miner etc,(with the exception of Kaponyas ofcourse,they are such a nusence, they should be sent to the ZNS or something).

    ONE ZAMBIA, ONE NATION.

  248. #207 what an erronous analysis over Sata coz C/Belt & Lusaka is not Bemba so before you display your ignorance check your facts well. the only person whose voting pattern was clearly tribal was HH in 2006 coz the facts are there for any sensible & logical person to see. as much as he may be pro-Bemba give an objective & correct analysis of issues. by the way am neither PF, UPND nor MMD, am just a Zambian who is worried about the regional politics being practised. amongst the candidates only RB is at least known by more pipo in the country coz he’s MMD (state machinery ofcourse).

  249. All this yapping and back and forth talk is pointless. The sooner both HH and Sata get it into their heads that they will not win individually, the better. I don’t support any of the candidates but I can see that neither of the two can stand alone and expect to win. The problem is neither of them can put self interest aside and join forces. If HH and Sata joined forces, the MMD would be in peril. Anyway…..I guess a person can only dream. We really need new, vibrant and educated people in parliament so that future selection of a President is not as painful tedious as it is now. The options we have are gastly.

  250. I agree with # 411. bringing change does not always mean being the main man.Sata sholud swalow his pride.Equally H.H should weigh himself and see if he is a capable leader at this time.given the opportunity, all the candidates should have been sidlined for better and vibrant crop.off course I don’t see such crop in the MMD!
    Zambia should move forward.We lost our Moses,we need a Joshua to lead us to the promised land.And for sure non of these can be our Joshua!
