  1. So what? He should have given that money to one of his impoverished relatives in the village…..20METER going to worst….napapa sana..he wont win. Let him change his name ti Chilema Kainde, maybe that way we may consider him, maybe…..

  2. I don’t trust a man who uses the word tribal eighteen times in ten minutes. If you’re half tribal, nothing soothes you more than to think the person you are opposed to is totally tribal.

  3. Tiyeni nazo, 2 are done, is it one or two to go? will c on oct 30. i want to feel safe with my leader. if you promise too many free things it becomes a bit sugar coated. we have gone beyond that now. free this, free that, or more money in my pocket, i want to know where that money is coming from, for my pocket, for free hospital and free education. This is not kaunda days when we used to have coupons for mealie meal. be realistic and promise things you know you are able to deliver. Otherwise it’s politics as usual.

  4. Let’s put away the tribalism as we go to the polls, we are all Zambians. We need a leader who will understand that there is a link between political stability and the good economy of a nation. Zambia is admired by many other African countries for the democracy and peace we’ve been blessed with, and I pray that peace will be maintained as we go to the polls. Peace and love

  5. There was jubilation and ululation among the TONGAS as their leader successfuly filled in his nomination papers for formality s sake.Tongas used to keep cattle but now they keep goats because people like hh.hh has no support this why he had to ferry fellow tongas from all corners of zambia to lusaka.now people are stranded

  6. it’s a pity that hichilema and sata could not come to an understanding to strengthen their chances,believe you me fellow bloggers these guys will cry foul come early november.everyone wants plot one,cannot read between the lines to work 2gether 4common good,1996,2001 and 2006 history will repeat itself and plz do not come and blame voters nor nor the powers that will be,anyway good lucky!!!!

  7. Viva HH the only hope for Zambia. Dont mind all these Kaponyaz, people with inteligence and who are smart are with you, True Zambians, this is the Man. I wonder how a normal thinking person will support Sata when he is sarounded by Kaponyaz! Remember Kaponyaz cant saround a person who is not a Kaponya, So all those supporting Sata think like Kaponyaz. Its Just logical. They have even abandoned their Ubwato for the speed boat. but our Pakuboko is still forward. Zambia forward! Viva HH

  8. The next Republican President President!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you think he cant win that is your problem. Akapondo , u re in denial, and that is dangerous

  9. HH, TOO BAD for you 2 worst your money a pact would have been better for you, the truth is you wont win,as usual you shall come out 3rd mwalibelela.

  10. if mmd wins again, we shall expel southern province from zed, so that HH can rule them, because it will be his fault if bwezani wins

  11. No.13, You are mad mwana, politician of your nature a bad ones. Its not only tongas who love hh mind you. Also copperbelt and some part of n/province has a large following on sata does it mean the same way think about tongas.

  12. All the same not too late try to sit down and talk HH and SATA, I know you can make a good Govt.Common HH if you can work along with a bemba like Sata then you shall prove yourself that you not tribal and people of course will have convfidence in you.

  13. Some are saying RB married a young lady. That was after 35 years of married life to one wife, the late bana Dingane and the new Wife has a ring.

    Sata only shows off one wife Dr. Kaseba and doesn’t show the two other current wifes, Mutale and Petronela. Not to mention former wives.

    If it is a question of morality Sata doesn’t even qualify

  14. #16 it because HH is in touch with reality. Zambia is at the moment heavily divided on tribal lines and any leader who fails to observe this problem is out of touch, if I may borrow Obama’s terminology. Leaders must address real issues and from the days of Chiluba tribalism has become a real problem and ignoring or pretending the problem is not there will not solve the problem. Even here on the blog where there are educated people we have seen comments like “that tribe will never rule Zambia”. Our leaders have a duty to treaty tribalism with the urgency it deserves just like AIDS otherwise the country will end up dividing into provinces.

  15. This tribal thing sucks. lets forget about and talk about real issues. i believe pipo who blog on LT reason, lets not be cheap.am not tonga infact am very much bemba from chilonga village in Mpika, which is next to satas village but HH is my man

  16. Not too late try to sit down and talk HH and SATA, I know you can make a good Govt.Common HH if you can work along with a bemba like Sata then you shall prove yourself that you not tribal and people of course will have convfidence in you.

  17. USING TONGA AS A WEAPON IS TOO CHEAP WINING ON THE LINE OF RAIL DOES NOT ME WINNING THE ELETION.WAIT AND SEE.
    HH YOU ARE ZAMBIA S PREFERED CANDIDATE.

  18. People, stop thinking that zambia is copperbelt. this country has nine provinces. One being masively supoted by one province does not mean he has won elections. Thus why to boot out the ruling part is difficulty because its supoted nine provinces. Sata may be popular here in the c/belt and not the other provinces. be careful guys.

  19. LT give us the picture of cadres jubilating. Dont discriminate. Show us the numbers. The way u did with sata. Supporting Sata is lacking direction. If you are bemba and supporting sata on tribal bases then we dont know what you are doing abroad. Being abroad should somehow change the way you perceive things. If you cant forsee things and cant even think beyond your nose then education has done nothing to you.

    With the nation forward VIVA HH

  20. LAST ELECTIONS SATA IS THE ONE WHO SAID, HE DID NOT NEED SOUTHERN AND WESTERN PROVINCES TO VOTE FOR HIM AND H.H SAID HE NEEDED EVERYONE’S VOTE.SO WHO IS TRIBAL?NOT H.H GO H.H YOU HAVE MY VOTE.

  21. Bayama balikwata under 5 child nabakashi 5 notuma concubine. i benefited from the MERZAF flats inchilenje. so did my 3 brothers and mother. but i will still vote for him pantu nibayama

  22. LITTLE DID I KNOW THAT BEMBAS ARE SO TRIBAL EVEN WHERE THEY SIT AND WALK STINK TRIBALISM NOWANDER THEY ARE NT LIKED IN WESERN PROVINCE.
    HH FOCAS ON ISSUES.VIVA HH.

  23. HH is live at freedom statue in Kamwala the whole lusaka is there for change.pick a phone and advise any PF guy to give you the update from the site.sata to beat HH its impossible the man knows how to do ground work this what the pipo are saying.

  24. No. 34 you are right these two leaders (Sugar Dady RB & This cobra they call SATA) have failed on morality test, they should be reminded. Honestly how many first ladies are we going to have? people think! No. 32 the worst Tribalist have seen to be frank is us the Bembas, am a bemba & am voting on Issues not tribe, Cobra & RB were in politics when HH was born so they had all these years to rule its time for our generation which these two have been teaching to rule. PAKUBOKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

  25. Chifundo ineeeeeeeeee…

    You could have stepped aside and support the REAL leader MC Sata. When are you going to learn politics if you dont invlve yourself with THE politician(s)? Uzadabwa ukapeze Given Lubinda become better than you.

    Swallow your pride, 2011 is so near mwana. Anyway, its your call, wait for Oct 30.

    Word of caution: kosa mwana. KOSAAAAAAA!

  26. FOR THE SAKE OF SANITY, PROGRESS AND CONTINUATION:
    RB FOR PRESIDENT
    HH VICE PRESIDENT

    HH can then gain experience for the 2011 elections

  27. Bembas call their friend hh and the tongas as tribal but here in Mpika my fellow bembas are saying this country should be in the hands of bembas. and if this way said by a tonga by now it would be reflecting in the headlines of any paper that tongas are tribal. infact my tribe bemba is more tribal than any in this country. I have lived in all the provinces in this country i know what am toking about.

  28. YOU PEOPLE THIS YOUNG MAN IS NOT A TRIBALIST IT’S JUST THAT THE PAPERS WANT TO MAKE HIM ONE WHEN HE IS NOT LOOK ALL HIS BUSINESS PARTNERS ARE NOT TONGAS,SO WHY LABEL HIM THAT.
    CAN WE ALL JUST VOTE FOR A BETTER PERSON AMONG THE THREE AND THIS NO OTHER THAN THE YOUNG MAN…..WE ARE SOOOOO TIREEEED WITH THESE OLD PEOPLE PLEASE, LOOK AT THE LATE YOUNG MAN WHAT HE DID FOR ZED…..THINGS STARTED MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION,SO LET JUST MOVE FOORWWARRRDDDD WITH H ,H ,H, H.EVEN HIS WIFE IS NOT TONGA,LET COMMON SENSE SEE THAT ////

  29. I like the way HH articulates what he promises to do for this great country.Let us all be objective and hear him out for us to make the correct choice come 30th.The other two candidates do not inspire much confidence.My advice to HH is to be above tribal inclinations and embrace the whole populace of Zambia to meaniful to this experiment in democracy.I am not Tonga but a true and patriotic Zambian with a desire to see our country develop.Viva HH

  30. # 46 your right on the pics, surely LT you deserve better. Ba Sata speaks bemba throughout if not english and I ve never heard anyone say a word about tribalism. Majority of the accused plunderers are bemba speaking what would one say about that. We should be above tribal lines and face real issues. Imiiti ikula empanga they say in bemba but am afraid this not the case in Zed, the younger generation are truly living in denial and it hurts when the rest of the world has woken. Anyway your vote is secret but 1 day you will say I wish I didn’t vote for that candidate. HH you inspire many amongst the younger generation in Zed. Good luck Mwisho

  31. WAWA MAN! YOU NEEDED TO START WITH COUNCELLOR, PS, ETC AT LEAST UNDERSTAND THE SYSTEM. I FULLY APPRECIATE YOUR STYLE BUT IT IS TOO EARLY…KNOW THE WAY UP THERE MWANA NOT STRAIGHT WITHOUT KNOWING A B C D E …U MAY KNOW ACADEMICS AND ALL BUT JOB PA STATE HOUSE U CAN SWEAT BLOOD, A HAEMORRAGE, FAINT ETC FINGI BA KAAMBA! OTHER WISE ULINSHIMBI SCHOOLWISE! SEE U AND VOTE U NGAWABALANCER FIRST.

  32. People who are using this site to campaign for their favorite candidates are simply wasting their time. On the ground, the course has already been set and it’s only 36 days away before we finally know who has the people’s choice.
    I unite my voice with #11 Gianfranco, meanwhile, let’s all just make sure peace and love surround the elections.

  33. That picture would make a good presidential portrait for our public offices. For now he could have given the old man MCS to lead since he is in the afternoon of his life. The opposition should have one goal for now, remove MMD from power something that might be difficult if we are not careful.VJ is now happy the more split opposition votes are the easier to rig the election. We should learn from history.

  34. Sata will kick out all foreign investors. He says he is for the chinese now but thats just to get the votes.
    He’ll make Bemba the official language.
    HH is educated but lacks experience
    RB ain’t all that but if he can carry forward LPM’s policies whilst HH gains some experience for the next elections, then that would be good.

  35. WHO TOLD YOU THAT PAINS HAVE STOPPED FLYING TO ZAMBIA AND WHO TOLD YOU THAT AM BROKE.MY DEAR AM A ZAMBIAN AND A REGISTERED VOTER.
    COUNT MY VOTE FOR HH.

  36. In the past bembas accused others of tribalism and people did not respond now they are getting straight answers right in their faces. This whole thing of calling people tribal in nosense and is a weapon used by illiterate chaps who want to scare others. This time round we do not want Sugar daddies or Standard six certificate, Grade D lilayi police constable certificate, experience: keeping council money in personal account, carrying K2billion in a briefcase. It is a shame. Just imagine your president with such back ground heading to US to discuss international issues with US president what language are they going to use. He cant even smile because his teeth is dark from smoking

  37. chi #2 you are a tribalist! those who notice that others are tribalists are the tribalists!!! Come on Zambia lets vote wisely and vote HH….I’m an eastener but definitely thinks HH is the man for Zambia. what are all these old men going to do for Zambia? vote for a man who understands our current woes and is not vying for plot one for the cash!!!

  38. #65 what insipiration are you refering to from HH that capatalist you think is an inspiration. when he goes around employing the young people in this country on casual labour come on man be a bit more realistic. I agree that all the candidates have skeletons in the closets but dont elevate people who are only after ripping this country and intersted in uplifting their business. That HH is a potential DICTATOR look at how could his eyes are

  39. HH is the right one for presidency, can’t you see it,unlike a dreamer like sata. a comedian who exaggerate serious situation into dramer.SATA stop leading the youths astray

  40. Viva pa BWATO, this guy is just fit to be a bank manager or something, we shall appreciate you most in the co-operate world, but we don’t want job on train for presidency. You are good but try next time.Give us just 5 reason why you want to be president, i guess the first one will be: 1. Build mandahill or acades in Namwala district

    mula beja madala heenha

    VIva pa bwato!!!

  41. Akanwa kamilandu kalaibala (The guilty are always scared). Any one who points his/her finger and say to another that you are tribal then they are tribal. Does any one know how this tribal thing started, for instance we atleast know how multi-partism started in Zambia? Any genuine idea please?

  42. HH is not too young. He is just about the same age with Obama who wants to be USA president and effectively President of the world. So stop this age nosense. Bring real issues or else just shut up and sit in your sinking boat. I would never want to take chances to jump on a boat where the captain has a record of heart failure. What are you going to do if he gets cardiac arrest in the middle of the ocean amidst a heavy storm. Only illiterates jump on such boats. Even those chaps who gets smuggled to Spain by boats are illiterates and usaully half die on the journey

  43. What experience does HH need.Was KK born in state house?He started somewhere.Even Obama is starting from somewhere by vying for the highest office in the USA.We are fed up of the same recycled old politicians!We need a breath of new blood in leadership.Go HH.Its your time as well!

  44. VIVA HH, you are asurred of my vote. Lets now face the campain with real issues and not insulting each other openly like this, Leaders like HH and RB dont’ insult but tolk about developmental issues, but the likes of sata have not given us tangeble isues apart from making comedy for the kaponyaz. Lets be serious and vote wisely. VIVA HH!!!!!!

  45. People of Southern province please give HH 100% vote, after all he comes from there. His cousins, sisters and brothers in Western, North-Western, Central and Lusaka provinces should also vote for him. Young progressives such as UNZA students are also for HH. Let us have a new kid on the block not these corrupt recycled politicians.

  46. #59,wateva u r saying is not true.Bemba’s aren’t & will neva be tribalists.they accomodate evryone whole heartedly regardless of the tribe,unlike other tribes,especially tonga’s & lozi’s who are only good to their tribe’s men.mind u am ‘tonga’ so i know wat am toking about..

  47. # 33 Tiger…Sata is not Bemba…he is Bisa..now u chaps who come from Luapula u r not Bemba ur Aushi or munungu or whatever…everyone wants to claim bemba olo uchoka ku Nakonde…tiger maybe ur from kapiri ati Iam bemba olo bamba..dalo chap..Congrats HH

  48. Orderly and slow of speech, HH has done it the way he knows best. Nice fitting photo too.Suit and tie. Contrasts with pics of Sata rowing in a boat!

    But the tribal tag. . .How shall my clean, slow speaking man (thinking too?)shake off the tribal judgement that seems to always come up whenever he opens his mouth? Is the old adage true that there is no smoke without fire? There has been alot of tribal smoke whever HH has been . . .

    Pity.

  49. Bloggers, let’s not base politics on tribes. This is time to deal with issues. Its a pit i have no TV in my office, i could be well ableast with current affairs.

    Now as we go to the polls, let’s vote for a person who is more issue based, and not someone who would die with nametag; to say, they were once president of this country. Besides, let’s move on our country, lets think. This is our own country, let develop it.

    Please, please, throw aside tribes, lets move. The clock is ticking and we need to be very fast to catch up with this world

  50. Now’s the time for young leadership. Now is the time for experienced leadership. Now’s the time for learned leadership. Now’s the time for HH!

  51. He knows he wont win…bt by 2011 both Sata and RB will be looking like pumpkins…at least he will be in his 50s…viva RB 4 now…wait 4 boma…he is oredi acting nway…

  52. Viva HH, you are my man and well articulated. King Cobra’s hear is too weak and he needs to retire from politics or else he will collapse. Ba RB nabo nabakota. We need fresh blood of our generation to carry this country forward. They have had they time and could not make it. Ni pakuboko bakalamba. Pakubokooooooooooo.

  53. HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
    HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
    all the way!!!! Zonda uzalema

  54. Ka HH mwaiche ulemoneka bwino. I am busy campaining for you here in Isoka and so far you will get a good chunk from the Namwangas. Go HH Goooo. You are defineitely going to whip these resurrected political dinosurs Go HH GO!!

  57. No 13 choma 1.you are a disgrace to this nation.you must be the one who posed for the Photo at high court acting to paddle a tiny sinking canoe.U must be above tribe.only Kaponyas like you are perpetuating this cancer.Zambia belongs to all of us.there is no special tribe in zambia.one zambia one nation.
    your PF leader is now old.he should go into retirement.he is not trust worthy and has nothing new to offer.its time for fresh ideas with a promise to lead this country to properity

  59. Afternoon all. This is HH. Thank you all for the good comments. I was told by my advisers to log on to Lusaka times and see for myself your Comments. I however realise that most of the peaople in Zambia don’t want development. Had I seen these comments, I would not have filed in the nomination earlier today.

    I thank you all

  60. bemba’s are not tribalistic! They are real unlike Tongas. we do not want to be seeing cows everywhere. Besides, meat gives one gout!!!!

  61. It amazes me hw zedians choose 2b blinded by sata who simply hs no agenda 4 dis country d@ is suportd by any politico o economic sku of thot. U tok abt H.H lackin xperience,w@ xperience? Hw 2b a politician who only says w@ u wnt 2 hear? A politician who lies thru his teeth lyk sata? If H.H wsnt tonga wud he stil nt b gud enuf? W@ do u call sata’s continous use of bemba?

  62. What are PFs Policies on Education, health and other esentials. I only hear about lower taxes, more money in pockets wat about education? VIVA HH Free education upto your fellow graduates! SATA has promised the police because he was a police.

  63. HH has half of Lusaka city and the entire Lusaka rural, He has CB Rural, entire central province, western, southern, half of NW, and half of luapula. Satana and RB are sharing the rest. Go HH GO gooooooooooogogogogogogoggo HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  64. Good Luck to HH. Its good that Sata has agreed to go for his medical check ups. by the time he coems back, the election period will be over.

  65. #106, Frog like your face. Be objective, we don’t need nonsense about looks. Grow up and you’ll see how “handsome you’ll look if you’ll even live to be anything close to 65!!!

  66. WISELY VOTE HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH PAKUBOKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  67. Even here in Lusaka bembas are publicly saying Umutonga CANT be our president? Isnt that being tribal at worst.When tongas and other tribes gave chiluba 100% votes in 1991 they never cared what tribe chiluba was.Actually gave chiluba 101% of votes.They also voted for KK instead of their tribesmen like arthur wina,Nkumbula e.t.c

    BEMBA are just selfish and practising tribalism publicly.Am Luvale,NOW I WILL VOTE FOR HH.

    zambia forward.PAKWANJA CHABE.

  68. A TONGA CAN NEVER RULE ZED UNLESS UPND , IT WILL TAKE GOD’S INVOVILMENTS FOR A TONGA TOTAKE OVER . VIVA PF VIVA SATA NI PABWATOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  69. 113, thats how petty you can choose to be. Its HH or never. When he joined polics, u said he shall lose his money. You see, today he has 38 Billion kwacha. Just join the brave HH

  70. Pa bwatoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

  71. BA 125, kitwe alone is not enough. Sata in fact had the whole CB last time, but u and I know what the results were. GO HH.

  72. 113, thats how petty you can choose to be. Its HH or never. When he joined politics, u said he shall lose his money. You see, today he has 38 Billion kwacha. Just join the brave HH

  73. Zambia forward. Pakuboko!!!!!!!!!!!! My household and i are voting for HH and we have our voters cards. Sorry fellow bembas but we (my family)are not ribal

  74. Dee (#116) you don’t know what I am going through. I only have you people from my home land supporting me! This is bad. What have I done to the rest of the tribes? I am no longer a trabalist!!

  75. HH is the best man for Zambia. he has all that it takes. If you dont belive HH try Sata, we shall not come to rescue you when he comes to hammer you.

    Its your fot. U shall see.

  76. when even pipo want to commit a crime, the use bemba, lets b wary of politicans that use bemba. i hv not against the Bembas, me being a NGONI MAN, EKANA KUTWA!!! Insults and Promises will not take us anywhere. My worry is that pipo r being lied to and the get xcited over nothing. the pipo being promised money in their pockets don’t even hv jobs. Zambia wake up and smell the coffee. se ndese Angoni.

  77. In kitwe there is commotion. All kaponyaz have abandoned there stations and flocked to freedom park, to help padle the speed boat since there is no water on the roads.terible situation.

  78. NOW,THIS GUY IS REALLY THE PERSON WE NEED,GOOD CV,ARTICULATE ON NATIONAL ISSUES,LEVEL HEADED,HE IS NOW WORTH K40.2 BILLION,WOH! THERE IS NO WAY HE CAN PLUNDER THE NATION.NO WONDER THE CHIEF JUSTICE IS SMILING ON THAT PICTURE.

  79. With these tribal comments Bemba that, Tonga that…It is even better ba RB ba winefye (And that is likely).Who told you that there are only two tribes in Zambia.Umwine Lesa alishiba ifyo afibikilako ifi mitundu. By the way Sata is live on 93.2 FM from the copperbelt rally.

  80. Tongas don’t need to enter into some pact with some monkey character to prove anything. Any coalition must be based on principle and if you think your principles are not compatible with the other guy’s, irespective of their extending an olive branch, you don’t need to join them. VIVA HAKAINDE.

  81. I agree with Lindy. U must be pretty. I wish u were a first Lady. Thats a GUD Idea. Keep it going. Even me and my children, girlfriend annd wives, concubines shall all vote for HH

  82. HH CHABEE VIVA HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH VOTEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  83. PEOPLE, PLEASE BE CAREFUL. IF HH EVER GETS TO PLOT ONE (WHICH I DOUBT WILL HAPPEN IN THE NEXT 13 YRS) HE WILL LEBERALISE THE MOVEMENT OF CATTLE TO URBAN AREAS. ARCHADES AND MANDA HILL WILL HAVE GRAZING AREAS FOR CATTLE. HE SAID IT AT A RALLY IN MONZE

  84. Jubilation among the kaponyaz in Kitwe, most of them don’t know waht a voters card is…they are just sinking the boat further in deep waters.

  85. #134, the numbers of PF cadres with cards spoke for themselves in 2006. You think PF rigged to scoop all those votes (Lusaka, cb etc)? Change your ID because “Frank Talk” is nothing close to what you’re exhibiting!

  86. #13 choma 1. listen to sata on radio qfm live. tell us if this is the man u want to rule zambia. he is so irrelavant nothing to offer at all.
    think big my friend

  87. HH should have waited for 2011. The priod between now and then he could have deputised Sata and get more votes from other parts of zed and as it stands the perception of him being a tribalist hasn’t not reduced. He is still young theres no rush. whats yours is yours no matter how long it takes to get to you.

  88. SATE HOUSE IS FOR HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NOW!

  89. Over the past few weeks, Sata and his ilk have made all manner of wild allegations and accusations, all based on the paranoia. It’s just like the Hitler days. Now, it’s some foreign mercenaries, Europeans, Garry Nkombo, UPND involved. Who will they accuse next?

    It reminds me, just to go down in history, how Sata, at the height of the fight against KK and UNIP around 1991, claimed that UNIP had established a cache of weapons and ammunition in Eastern Province’s Sindamisale area to be used to wage a civil war against the MMD government after losing the 1991 elections. It was a phantom story, it turned out later, though Sata went on to grab public attention.

  90. #146 (stanford) thats a good one my brother. u ve cracked me. Dont forget to educate your house manager and gardern manager to vote wisely pakuboko

  91. SATA and HH have NO CHANCE!! But anyway, I don’t want to spoil your day. Keep on believing your Sata or HH will win, may be that will minimize pre-election violence! It’s good to believe…even if you are not winning.

  92. In this election, it appears issues of lower taxes, more money in our pockets and jobs are no longer attention -grabbing. So, without anything to use to mesmerise and bamboozle us, Sata has had to resort to scare-mongering tactics not because there is truth in his allegations but to achieve this one objective: paint the picture so horrific that the weak among us should tremble with fear and, seeking safety, surrender our future into PF hands come October 30.

    No, me and my family will not be intimidated this way by Sata. Come October 30, we will all march to the polling station to put an end to this nonsense, as we did in 2006. This time, for good, hopefully.

  93. #124 and you are busy saying tongas are tribalist what about you. Don’t be dull u would rather vote someone with not vision just because he is bemba. shame on u!

  94. CHOICE yaboola.Mr Incoming President to-be HH, Sir, I wish you the very best in this October 30, 2008, election. Please, remain true to your promise and make sure you ran your race effectively.Please, make sure your retire from active politics at 54 yrs in 2016 so that I too can have a chance to led Zambia to another level.My full weight is in full support of the UPND management as a whole. My heartie regards to your families, UPND National Management members, as they put up with your hard work wherever you go to campaign so that ALL ZAMBAIN CITIZENS can have a better future starting on November 4, 2008. May the best MAN win!

  95. I find this tribal issue being abused. None of us can or could influence which tribe to be born in, But once we are born there are no limits on who we can rule as long as we acquire the required skills and most of all volunteer to lead.
    The way the campaigns are going, since there has been no chnage in the voters’ register, the trend of results will be same this time as they were in 2006. Only the one candidate who will change the campaign song will change the trend in results, so far one is talking about the legacy (of a 2006 song), the other on tribe and one like a broken record without a twenty ngwee on, on investors. Change your song you will influence my and many other’s voting in 2008

  96. Dont understand why u insist on Sata, do you honestly want to start spending money on a State funeral again, wake up people,open your eyes this guy will be so stressed with State house and will just end up like the big man,vote wisely

  97. In my life, I will never vote for a thief (Bemba candidates). 1991 was my last vote for northern thieves. to prove me right, name a Tonga/Lozi or Luvale who were prosecuted of corruption/plander apart from you ethnocentric thieves suffering from celebral hygiene. Bembas can be educated with any high qualification on earth but will never be civilised. Remember,’you can get the monkey out of a bush but not the bush out of a monkey’. thats what you are.
    Federal Zambia is the way forward. Southern, N. Western & Western wake up! No HH, opposition forever………………………!
    Viva the sane HH not the insane Diabulosi……
    Akwaanzaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Foward

  98. PLOT ONE HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHVOTE FOR HH

  99. you guys, HH is a liar, he is promising free education in zambia. is it feasible to have free education up to university level. someone educate me, i seem to be ignorant of these things, is an economy sustainable when things are free. we need empowerment and not free coupons

  100. PA KUBOKO

    ITS HH HH HH HHH HHHHH HHHH HHH HHH HHHHHH

    HH Worthy over 30 Billion!!.Indeed the CV speaks for itself,he has worked for it no doubt about it.Only THIEVES THEMSELVES think that one can ONLY be rich through stealing because stealing is their culture anyway!!!!!

    LETS GO HH LETS GO all the theives are scared. HHH HHH HHH

    ZAMBIA FORWAD…NOT BACKWARDS

  101. am listening to QFM thanks
    SATA should not be given a chance to rule.

    We really need someone with a plan for us to survive after copper prices fall.
    HH u are the man. We need you

  102. I have just been listening to SATA on QFM. what a waste of time. He should also learn to use a language everyone will understand. Who told him evryone understands bemba.

  103. Am sure kitwe residents are laughing their heads off for free-i mean they are being entertained by zambias’ best comedian/clown. wish i was their so that i could also relieve my stress by laughing at the clown.
    Better to have a handful crowd which is going to vote than have 100s who are just there to have fun and wont even vote

  104. # 78 I can tell you have never been in business, HH has businesses operating within the laws of Zambia. If at all HH has broken the law then why hasn’t he been prosecuted. This is the same thing we are fighting for to have better laws which will benefit all Zambians. How are Civil Service Conditions of Service and why do we have so many of our younger brothers and sisters flock abroad for work. You are among the many that blame HH for the flawed privatisation programme by FTJ and Valentine Chitalu, Chiluba introduced Capitalism and you don’t blame him!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  105. These are stone age politics where you only have support among your tribesmen. This is twenty-first century, I think we can be more civilized than this. Zambia has one tribe called ZAMBIAN. Let’s stop worrying about which tribe our next president will come from. VIVA HH

  106. Dont worry, Sata will never rule. I dont think Zambians are that careless. SATA is a Joker – simple.

    How can you run a nation when you cant run your own political party or even your own family?

  107. No one influences what tribe he or she be born in. But, you can attain leadership skills that can enable you rule whatever tribe or race on earth. Most important you must be ready to volunteer these leadership skills.
    I can see a lot of celebrations already in all the 3 camps. Without getting too complicated, with the same voters’ register the trend of results will be the same in 2008 as was in 2006 unless the candidates chnage their campaign songs. One is singing on legacy (LPM’s 2006 song), the other still singing on the tribal song and the old man still sings investors. Nothing new. Change the song you might change the views of the voters including this registered voter

  108. 30/10 PANKOLOKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  109. mudala napena.QFM please censor ur broadcast. amatwi yalatulika kusenle sha kwachisata. napena mudala. no issues jus isults. PF cardes must be ashamed. VIVA HH

  110. HH should have allowed Sata to represent the opposition during these elections and gone for Veep and then start after 8 years. He still has time on his time but he is not ready to govern.

  111. Watch his pace. If u are dreaming he will not, u will wake up to find HH at state house. In all honesty & sobriety he is the best of the three candidate, period. Viva HH!!

  112. 53 you are right. Zedians lets move forward.KK, FTJ, LPM = small,smaller, smallest.For us not to break the series we need HH for Presido.God will grant him the wisdom and power.Madalas should rest and watch Zambia get better.

  113. sata -minister of health clean hospitals but colera no madecine deposited money
    in personal account.pipo died
    – governor belt flayover bridge, bought buses, mazarf flats gave contructs
    to the comapny he formed. exergarated the price. concil became broke
    -minister without portgolio suported 3rd tame. beat up those against.
    chased ministers from convention
    HH – very successful businessman and very clean hands, still a virgin in politics

    RB – Old successful politician no bad things mentioned about him
    clean hunds. was liked by many pipo at namboard- very cool man but acts with extra ordinary wisedom.- Acted president in namibia

  114. poor pipos party is the right party all zambians. NI PA NSAPATO WITH MR MULYOKALA GO PPP GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOPPPGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOPPPGOGOGOGOOGOGOGOPPPGOOGOGOGOGOGOGOPPPGOGOGOOGOGOGOGOGOGOPPPGOGOGOGOGOGOGOOGOPPPGOOGOGOGOGOGOOGOGOGOPPPGOGOGOGOGOPPP

  115. Which UNZA students #88? UPND has no way! Mazoka was the best. After his group was removed on tribal lines, we know for sure that the party is tribal. We are not speaking from without. Where are all the men who were with Mazoka? The MPs who were forced out on tribal matters? Be serious! HH has a tribal weakness, that will always cost him. We have also noticed his dying to rule and losing chances for 2011. He may end up with just potential but real ability!

  116. GO HH, DONT DESPARE, WE ARE WITH YOU ALL THE WAY TO PLOT ONE. BAKASHALA BALELILA NGATWAYA. ALL THOSE AGAINST YOU ARE JUST JALOUSY.

  117. Lets go HH uyumuntu mulefwaya Sata mukapapa sana. There will be no order in this nation. Yes we are desparate for change but I dont think Sata should be a person to bring about change. Mwebantu it can only be HH or RB if we need some peace in Zambia. I dont want to see Vigilantees coming back whipping us women in public.

  118. #174.Focuss on issues.if you have nothing to post step aside.Let us the wise show you how it is done.one zambia ona nation.VIVA HH

  119. Most Zambians are deeply tribal. Such sentiments as expressed by most people here shows one how deep the problem is. Same on you! Let us grow and learn to judge the real issues.

  120. #202 so only Sata has been known to work with the people? All the rest is either personal or totally personal? I will go for Sata! Besides what can each of them offer? MMD played down his policies. LPM spent all his life implementing them. RB is even a worse copy now hes telling us Zambia has exaggerated prices – when we all knew that – duh!

  121. 133(HH). why do some people have shalow minds to think that it is our HH sending those blogs. Mind you we are not dull like you, its only that you have nothing to offer by impersonating our next president, Grow up, VIVA HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  122. #196 TEMWANI WALITUPA. Your mind is so pulluted with fackal. I`d want to believe that your mind is disturbed and no wonder you speak or write rubbish.

  123. #198,Lovestone Gal, we always tell you that tribal politics will not take you anywere. You are fighting a loosing battle. Abash HH and VIVA PF.

  124. 192, Bemba, Bamba is underwear, you saying King Cobra, went to QFM in his under wear,Bwezani!!! Please you made my days. Bambas what do you have to say?

  125. The insultant is busy insulting HH on QFM WHY? Because he has felt his weight.Why not attacking the govenment of RB. If HH store why is he not convicted or arrested the way SATAN was arrested for Stealing 2 billion with Mandandi? HH has never been arrested for stealing!

    This unprincipled snr citizen has lost his senses.He is also addressing the gathering in BEMBA as if everyone understand the language.At least NYANJA can be understood by almost everyone.Am calling upon all other tribes LOZI,TONGAS,NSENGAS,LUVALES,KAONDES,KACHOKWES to be very careful and not be used by overzelous bembas with their illeterate satan.

    VOTE WISELY COUNTRYMEN.

  126. #205 so you think everybody staying in southern province are tongas ka? if you think he will just concertrate in SP only thats your own ndaba,tukofwilamo bwino ifwe ku L/stone.

  127. #217 Kwaanza you know its polluted with fackal because you clean it dude!!!You clean my s*** and thanks for the good job you ve been doin and because of that i wont fire you.

  128. Here is another one-

    At the rate at which SATA is insulting, he might have a heart attack earlier than expected. Let us wait and see.

  129. I’m supprised that most critics of HH are just Kaponyas just like their PF President. Zambians need serious people. Go HH. why should you give up to a king kaponya and a tired RB. Zambia Forward1

  130. From the look of things non of you bloggers benefited from the ‘great leader’ ,may his body turn in the grave, coz you seem to be perfect examples of bitter elements………..!

  131. Felloow PF supporters.I think HH is making sence.Ba sata has no issues but insults.Lets put Zambia first this time.Tribalism TWAKANA.Its not to late to change our support.VIVA HH

  132. The man was busy pulling his friends down instead of selling himself. Ati he will divide the land to Zambians heeellloooo… another Robert Mugabe

  133. HH now you look like a statue or robot your face is stiff and smile fake. wait till 2011 you have just donated that 20million to orphanges instaed of wasting it.

  134. If possible LT, give us verbatim of what was said in kitwe and kamwala.this will enable pipo to see who was making sense and who was yapping. the media edits too much so pipo fail to make informed decisions.

  135. Arithimetic………Satana + Hichilema = Satanichilema….hehehehehehhehe bamambala baleyangala ko fye…RB this is your vote

  136. Ladies and Gentlemen let’s not cheat ourselves. If what I saw as I was driving into town today around lunch hour is anything to go by then HH is wasting his time, money and breathe. After filing in, there was a shadow of a rally at Kamwala opposite the govt complex.It was a sorry site for someone aspiring to be president. It was the exact opposite of yesterday when Sata filed in business came to a stand still in the central business district. Whoever is dreaming or hallucinating that HH has gained ground is in denial and is likely to suffer from depression after 10/30.

  137. Zambians love comedians the likes of Bikiloni and difikoti but most of all, Sata. We don’t need clowns and comedians to run this country.
    King Cobra!my foot. We don’t need a serpent(Satan, Diabulos) to run this country. Be wise! Don’t put satan in state house.

  138. Sata is not consistent.He cant be trusted.RB is old.Child defiler.HH is intelligent with skills of the moment to take zambia forward

  139. All i have read on this blog are tribal issues and nothing sensible. You mean you canot discus something sensible. Mind u its only whites who can develop zambia and not u blacks, thats the truth.

  140. the reality is come the day of voting Zambians will vote for stability, unity and continuity with change. Sata is so desperate he is just insulting everyday and RB will never respond because he is not Levy who was always responding with insults of his own. RB is mature and will carry the nation forward we do not need undemocratic and unlected people like sata in state house. we also do not need an ego maniac in HH who thinks zambians owe him a vote just because he has money and is a village valley tonga who is not even accepted by the real true tonga bulls of monze and choma

  141. # 167 Finland doesn’t have the blessings in natural resources as much as zambia. However education in finland is free from grade one to university. so it can be done bro!!

  142. #251 YOU SOUND MALAWIAN PLS WE NEED REAL CHANGE IN ZAMBIA,HH IS THERE FOR US ALL NOT RB WHO IS THERE FOR THE OLD ONLY,AND SATA FOR BEMBAS ONLY

  143. growing up mimi na wewe learnt form the school recess ground that is tribe is bad or so and so is not a good person to play with just because…….
    That demon inculcated in us as kids has been suppressed only because Kaunda tried to make the surface look good. There is a tribal inclination in all of us, but we should practice restraint and learn to live harmoniously just like in marriage, where the surface is good but only the walls and roof know what really goes down in any mairrage. Letrs live and prosper together.

  144. VOTE WISELY ALL ZAMBIAN WORKERS AND UNEMPLOYED,HH IS THERE TO MAKE OUR LIVING STANDARDS BETTER.VOTE HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  145. HH will get more votes in central, northwestern, southern, western and Lusaka provinces. Marketeers are cheating themselves and think by voting for Sata they will be better, they will continue swallowing dust at markets. HH has become richer since 2006 so no need to tell him that his money will finish. he is an inteligent businessman.HH is setting a good example for younger people. No sensible human being should trust Sata unless you want the Zimbabwe problems to spill over to Zambia. Remember during last election he had invited Mugable to give a vote of thanks.

  146. HH has taken Lusaka by storm.All intellectuals and well meaning citizens are in full support.We dont want recycled politians.Viva real change

  147. # 165. you want to know which other tribe is full of plunderers. Michael Mabenga – Lozi, Anthony Shansonga, Richard Sakala, JKatele Kalumba Ushi, and finally yourself coz u want to plunder mabenga into a bemba. read your history bembas are in kasama. For your own information HH said in kitwe at edignburgh hotel that i know i can’t win but iam just marketing myself. Sata too good for taxpayers, RB means well to farmers and UNIP. As for brother HH hold your fire! finshi ulebutukila kwata walafwa nombaline. Ngawacibalekelafye ama MADALAS baipantaula.

  148. You blacks amaze me. Surely you will never develop if you refuse to use your heads. You like shallow solutions. Go ahead and vote for SATA or RB and don’t complain when this country starts moving in reverse.

  149. I dont know why HH keeps saying that pipo must not vote along tribal lines.Only Tongas vote along tribal lines.So HH must tell his tribesmen to stop voting along tribal lines.Only then will he get our vote.

  150. RB got married after the first wife died leave him he has morals but Sata is a person who like marrying all the time what kind of a president is going to be when elected that is the only bemba I have seen who like marrying all the time. The bembas are the people who stick to one wife. Alatusebanya Sata konaulafye vote ukumusala icishele ngaba kateka akalabulafye abaice mu musebo nga PF munankwe, MP wa Mpika central.

  151. If really you want to see what type of politics we have in Zambia you can easily see it from the blog on how people are debating, no maturity and substance just insults. People lets grow up this is our only country.

  152. MMD is busy campaigning in rural areas while PF (Poor Finisher) president is busy campaigning in lusaka jumping from one radio station to another as if lusaka is zambia, he will cry again,its good for MMD. Viva RB.

  153. #250 has anyone ever told you that you suffer from acute inferiority complex? Not even white people think the way you do. If you were American, I would have blamed Michael Jackson but I fail to guess who in Zambia might have brainwashed you.

  154. all those in support of pf,are sick and do not think properly,how can u forget so easily the cobra that bite u no so long ago,,,choose wisely other wise u are going to have a dictator very soon

  155. I am tonga and will vote for Sata, because when I was in Zambia He built Mezaf and I now leave there and bought one. He also built Avondale, He also built the sadam hussen road, He also improved maternity services in lusaka and ndola when he was minister of health. Like him or not he is the best among the candidates. What has HH done apart from stealing during privatisation, RB run down Namboard.

  156. you wasting your money young HH. You are not presidential material at all. You will nevre rule this country just as i had told mazoka becos of your tribal nonesense.

  157. Happy to not that there is one candidate who espouses sense in this election. If we have to choose on the basis of one who shouts the loudest, Sata would get my vote. On the basis of issues articulated? HH, runs away with it.

  158. if you have a brain vote HH, if u want another Bemglish(bemba English) speaking president then by all means drink ur life away pabwato….. TONGA BULLS

  159. I heard some bus driver saying when SATA wins they will be getting salaries of K 1,000,000 and above.Hm interesting,indeed.I wonder if SATA will be paying those perks…

    SATA is an inconsistent person, he has U-turned on a lot issues. I wonder if he wont U-turn on his supporters. It is a good thing HH didnt pact with him. The gap in principles is just too wide.

    I am surprised how people have forgetten the SATA of yesteryear. He was firing professionals indiscriminately when he was minister of health. His merzaf housing projects were a scandal. He supported Chiluba on the third term which was unconstitutional.

    Just sit still and think for a minute about SATA if you can manage to think…

  160. #287 Chengelo, Are you normal? What has befallen you to an extent all your discussions are Tonga based? What are you doing in the US? Man, you amaze me. You will make your candidate lose. People might have other reasons to vote for HH, but when they read your rants about who is Tonga, who is not Tonga, they might have a problem having a Tonga at plot 1. How about talking about who is Zambian? Doesn’t that make sense to you at all? Please grow up.

  161. For most of you Die hard HH supporters you fail t realise that the UPND Tribal Thing is a “Real Issue” Just as any issue. Most people actually admire HH including PF and MMD supporters but the issue of UPND being Tribal is very real and that puts off a lot of people. UPND is actually HH’s down fall. They should have done something seriously about changing the image. I think if HH had brought on board the Chisangas of this world public perception would have started to change. MMD and PF are thus National parties. Even though I don’nt fancie RB, his Platform just like Sata’s PF is better Foundation than UPND. Thats Why people have been calling for a pact, the pact would have benefited HH more

  162. How about how HH was the salesman and chief negotiator on the mines, to an extent we made a huge loss? How much was he given to give away our mines? It was after those sales HH became a “rich” man. Are we going to look back and see what happened? Sata firing those lazy bastards at MoH was the answer to our Health System. Do you know how many people die everyday at UTH due to neglegence? Do you know what time those bastards get to their offices and what time they leave? SATA made a difference in every department he worked.

  163. want it or not we are going forward with HH you will soon have to accept it. not every one is a kaponya in ZED. But i wish Sata good health because the challenge is huge.

  164. Yes you can have HH as President, but remember what happened to USA when they put back Bush for the second term. Make a mistake and put a novice in at that Plot. HH has not told anyone what his agenda is apart from going to Mufulira and asking people not to vote on tribal lines. He has never said the same in Monze, Kalomo, Choma, or any other Tonga area. WHY? HH is a totally an empty suit.

  165. Gentlemen and beautiful Ladies who are Zambian in Zambia and abroad, Makani ya bija!! Kani yalula!! Ala niyibipa game Bane!!

    From my simple survey conducted, All the 3 presidential candidates are likely to cry. No one can say they command a bigger following. Despite most people wanting change, MMD commands a good following of sympathizers.

  166. 293. Ama Elders ,that a lie,its makes sense for some u to see zambians speak bemba,but if its tonga and lozi it becomes tribalisim.do u remeber how chiluba’s cabinet was full of bemba’s.did any one complain,y do u hate the young man.in any case the voting patern in zambia shows that every province in zambia vote on tribal lines except lsk.gud nite

  167. Kalos2020, If you were a professional I would have agreed with you. People die at UTH coz the place has got no equipment. Its not negligence. For starts the patient to doctor ratio is to high. The perks they get are too low. Can you imagine that the resident docs get K570,000 housing allowance? A decent place in lusaka goes for K2,500,000.Start by motivating them then address the gaps in performace. The MMD govt has failed and SATA was part of this govt at some point.

    I hope you or your relatives will be sent to Morning side clinic or Percy Military Hosptal to die from there.

  168. UFO u are a dangerous man… Kalos2020 ur statements are washed down rhetoric, we have heard all this crap already…

  169. Evening, members of this August house.
    NO. 291 you could not have said it any better! Am a proud ZAMBIAN fisrt and Lozi second. I understand Tonga and i speak Bemba better than most who claim to be.
    However am disgusted by the immaturity of most bloogers here and i speak on behalf of the more serious blogger when i say, those shooting Tonga or those shooting Bemba are silly and need to find something else to do. Its not about Tongas and Bembas its about ZED!

  170. Am actually at home, thats why i post sensibly bcoz i can be tracked to my crib unlike you cafe bloggers(not all) who yap anyhow bcoz u cant be tracked to your PC.
    I am for intellectual discourse my dear brother, and if i have offended you, i am profoundly sorry.

  171. Chengelo Alumni u disappoint me sometimes bra man up homie. You seem smarter than what you write in this blog.You are too tribal for nothing it makes u comeout like a ku klax klan member

  172. No 305. Am actually at home, thats why i post sensibly bcoz i can be tracked to my crib unlike you cafe bloggers(not all) who yap anyhow bcoz u cant be tracked to your PC.
    I am for intellectual discourse my dear brother, and if i have offended you, i am profoundly sorry.

  173. While the PF and UPND are busy splitting their votes, we are busy campaigning in the rural areas. You think you have crowds in the cities, wait till we add up all our support in the rural areas.
    You are actually helping our cause and we pray that you carry on till E-day. Viva RB!

  174. Chengelo, the evils of tribalism are way too much to handle. Remember Rwanda, Kosovo, Congo, and your brother HITLER? Man, I would rather have a thief at Plot 1, than a damn tribalist. You guys scare me. HH being surrounded by people like you makes me quinch. HH could be educated, look at you, you are here in the US, you still espouse tribalism. How about HH? How come he has never told Tongas not to vote on tribal lines?

  175. #301, he is haunted by it. he thought it was a good thing to ride on. He can do better by making an apology on behalf of his party over what had transpired. At the moment he is not at peace.It is at this time that you realize the importance of the other; even those you have called names publicly or in private.

  176. Proud young man couldnt even team up with the cobra. Now he will be to blame for the split of votes that could have made them win

  177. HH is is not a tribalist per say but the people who are in the party’s congress HH was ready for the pact the UPND CONGRESS refused him to do so just like in the ANC in south africa the majority are the butelezis(zulus) they have turned the party to be a tribe party only zulus should lead ANC and only tongas should lead UPND, satana is a displinarian and we need him to prepare a way for HH 2011, HH could be a good leader for this nation but we need some one like satana to drill the people to resposible not where by some one works up at 0600hrs just to enter a drinking place and strt drinking what time are we going to develop our country it is not the duty for the president only to develop

  178. why use tribal grounds to degrade a wise and deligent leader.hh for president not the cheap talkers, they speak of tribalism wen they are being tribalist themselves.remove the logs in satas eyes then remove the stick in hhs eyes

  179. RB Is winning,HH and SATA have failed to go for a checkmating move. These guys needed to go for synergy sorry to opposition supporters who can’t analyse and u soon be cryin.

  180. PLEASE ZAMBIA. MOVE THE COUNTRY FORWARD.

    PLEASE VOTE HH….PLEASE.

    WE WANT TO SEE THE COUNTRY MOVING FORWARD.

    DONT VOTE FOR RECYCLED LEADERS (SATA).

    PLEASE….WE NEED FRESH IDEAS….VOTE HH.

  181. No 292 excellent comment. I used to like HH until i read the Tonga rantings by …….HH”s worst enemies are his Tonga zionist supporters. HH will never get to plot one with this kind of rhetoric from his so called supporters.Magande lost i guess due to these same fears people have of …….

  182. One thing that surprises me with zambian political leaders and their supporters is that leaders get blind and deaf to see and hear good and sound advice from the general public. They only see and listen from their supporters who are in turn on their payroll. I am not wishing HH hard lucky. But, its plain that the election battle is between Sata and RB. Most Zambians are fed up with MMD and want it out of power. In fact its a need n not want. If really, HH’s interest is to offer a service to Zambians, he would have listened to the cries of Zambians about a pact with PF…

  184. with the current discoveries in zambia,are you people sure you still want to talk of tribalism.think of the impact it has on the country.you are killing the nation

  185. UFO 300, Get your facts straight. Am not a kin follower of Sata but i can attest to you that he did his very best to improve the health sector.

    I’ve nursed my relatives in these our health institutions, before and after he was minister of health, things improved. Have relatives and in the health sector some are now in the diaspora, can surely agree with me that their lacking was cusioned by his presence.

    Fellow bloggers lets stop politics of hatred.

  186. On behalf of all readers on LT please keep in mind that most of the comments here are sent by young sponsored children of well to do families hence no meaning are advaced debating.
    A few are mature enough to debate the esure at hand and i would edge you to pay attentions to those that are actually raising issues that matter for instance Zambia now and the future and consquences of choosing certain leaders explained in a meaningful manner and not just talking to irritate otheres as if its the first time to have such access to the internet. Seriuosly people like Advice, Nameless have left the forum because of childish comments by fellow bloggers am sure mo wil leave

  187. LT, you shouldn’t be cutting bloggers points as if we are not investing time resource in trying to contribute to your blog. I spent time writing the points and you just cut them off. Be serious-pipo could ve benefited from my complete contribution.

  188. HH should start by telling people in the Southern Province to stop voting along tribal lines and then the rest of us will listen to him. Southerners have been doing this since 2001 and the rest of the country has noticed this voting pattern in the Southern Province. Somehow it seems that HH is not bothered about why the Southern Province voted the way it did in 2001 and 2008 but since he can never win with only one province he’s telling everyone else not to vote along tribal lines.

  189. Some of you argue as if one needs to have been President somewhere else (experience) before they can be President of Zambia. The fear of new ideas has brought us down over the years – are noises of wamuyaya still reverberating in your heads? A good candidate with a clear vision only needs to surround himself or herself with the right people in order to take a country forward. I am sorry but SATA is a populist, has no integrity, tact or progressive ideas communserate with the 21st century.

  190. @ # 331 Aiwonde

    Can you grow up and read the digital printing.

    HH is not saying, “all the 8 provinces excluding southern province, don’t vote along tribal lines”.

    HH is talking to the whole Zambia (Southern Province included) not to vote along tribal lines.

    Stop trying to demonise HH. It is not surprising that you would use such cheap tactics to attack HH as you are part of the PF-SATA Camp.

  191. HH,Zambians are dice to deal with and later on please. i think you will get the feel of this election to prepare you fully for the next one. It will be very difficult to win as you know the other candidates have serious backing. all the best for your own sake..

  192. To the LT Site Administrator
    There’s growing sense of tribal hatred on this blog that if not stopped could put Zambia in flames. Could you please act on these blogers insighting tribal hatred, I have not lived in Zambia the past 10 years but I still have relatives across the country from many tribes in Zambia. All I knew the time I left Zambia was “One Zambia One Nation”, what has gone wrong?

    I’m totally disturbed by these sentments on this site, It’s leaving me marvelled.Many people are abusing the privaledges of the internet to distroy Zambia. Please, if you can, contact me privately through my “TCP/IP ID” so that I maybe of help to trace these hooligans posting hatred blogs.

  193. 340 POINT…..There too many kaponyas in this country..that is why ZAMBIANS MUST FORGET ABOUT DEVELOPMENT..No direction on this blog…very disappointed

  194. I am deeply disappointed by the level of insults on this blog. Zambin Citizens, please let us have respect for the elders. I have consistently been disappointed byt postings referring to Honourable Sata as Satana. Please, my fellow COUNTRY men, we can do better.
    I now, ask all UPND’s HH supporters to show maturity as we approach the elections. In fact, let us leave PF insulters to insult on this blog if they want but let us go and campaign now that the MAN of the MOMENT HH has filed in his nomination.The race will be long and hard, so we all HH group have to pull up our socks. My we all repent of our sins before it is too late.

  195. Everyone writing on this blog is probably below 50yrs. Why do you think Sata or the Snoppy Banda should be leading us. Look around you, your CEO, director or whatever is probably a young person <50yrs. Tell me why we should go back to people who were educated before Zambia was independent. This is a serious misbelief in your own peers to lead and really in yourselves as individuals. The fella will have less than 3yrs if Zambia is not happy then think of another leader in the mean time HH. Lets change the face of politics because we must.

  196. From K23billion to K39billion. The young man knows how to make money. All those who thought he gonna get broke must be dissapointed heaps. HH is wise as he just keeps buying farms and now am told his cattle has increased to 13,000 from 8,000 in 2006. MMD tried to frustrate him by banning cattle movement in Southern province but he instead made his own arbatoir in Kalomo. So he kills the animals and brings cancas to Lusaka and C/belt. You need a leader who can solve problems instead of crying foul all the time. I am told Sata doesnt even have a small holding with at least chickens. All he has is a katemba in front of his house in Lusaka. I wish Sata good luck because he will need it

  197. At least HH won’t be tempted to loot the state coffers. Not sure about Sata though. That guy is another Chiluba, come in poor yet he’ll leave rich.

  198. Let us imagine Sata wins the election and also Obama wins and the two are to meet. With Sata’s education of standard six ungraded certificate and Grade D Lilayi police constable certificate, what will he discuss with Obama. What what level of intelect will their discourse be at. Zambians must stop think that Zambia is an island. We need a leader who understands comlex problems of 21st century and no matter how intelligent you are you need education to be in a position to understand and deal with such problems. This is why I say that HH may not be the best brain in the country but in this election he is clearly the best candidate. VIVA HH

  199. Visit the thepicturemonger. blogspot . com under the thread “SATA FILES PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATIONS ” to see how much money hon. Sata has declared as what he had as on 31 March 2008.

  200. #346, I hear you. I have always wondered why a Zambian President has never – if I am not mistaken – sat to discuss issues with a sitting US President on bilateral terms. It has been the level education e.g. Chiluba – education can be traced up to about Grade 8/9. What more with Hon. Sata? How can be the situation in terms of international relations for Zambia?

  201. Patriotic Front cadres have allegedly burnt a fence belonging to Kasama Central Member of Parliament, Savior Chishimba’s parents in Lusaka’s George Compound
    Savior’s Father, Emmanuel Chishimba told MUVI TV News that the cadres burnt the fence to ashes using petrol and dismantled iron sheets of the fence last night. Mr. Chishimba appealed to the Patriotic Front leadership not to engage the family into politics. He challenged the Party leadership to show maturity in its campaigns in the run-up to the polls. SOURCE:www . muvitv . com / news / pnews127 .ht ml

  202. I am not surprised because Sata is a thagerist himself. MMD was very violent when Sata was MMD national secretary. In this election Zambians have a clear choice; to look to the future with hope or to look to the past which full of hopelessness. People have a choice to look to civility or to go for violence. The choice is very very clear.

  205. Using simple arithmetics, HH has improved his money in approximately 2 years by 57% ~ (38-23)billion/23 billion * 100. I can just imagine, what HH will do for Zambian if he will be elected President of Zambia.
    2 years, fellow Zambians. There is MONEY in ZAMBIA, what is lacking is management skills. There is hope for mother Zambia and all Zambian Citizens in VOTING FOR HH come 2008 Oct 30 elections.
    Vote for RBB or worse Hon MC Sata are your loss and risk for our future.

  206. HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  207. My analysis is that HH nomination has been the most commented on topic on the blog. In two days comments are heading to 400 comments.

  208. HH is man of the moment, for the registered voters know who to vote for come October 30, 2008.
    Viva HH.Vote for HH for a real ray of hope and change that all Zambians can believe and trust in.
    Q.What is experience?A.Experience is nothing but lessons learnt from a collection of mistakes.
    Q. Who has the Zambian Presidency experience among ALL the candidates vying for Plot 1 in the Oct 30, 2008 elections?A. Non, the best Man who will win will be learning with his/her mistakes in time.Viva HH and vote for REAL CHANGE in the history of Zambian politics.

  209. #168 .In bemba they say umwana ashenda atasha nyina ukunaya. If other countries can offer free education why not Zambia.Vote wisely otherwise our country will be a country of illitrates like some of the presidential candidates. VIVA HH

  210. HH needs to tell us whether he would consider it ethical for one of his ministers to be sent to negotiate on behalf of Zambia with some investor and immediately thereafter accept to become that company’s board Chairman. Would he consider that to be ethical and above board? Would that be synonymous with fighting corruption? If his answer to these questions is “Yes” then he has no business aspiring to be president. If his answer is “No” then why did he accept to become Board Chairman of Sun Hotel immediately after negotiating “on behalf of the Zambian people” the privatization of Hotel Mosi-o-Tunya?

  211. No 53, I agree with you 100% when you say, HH has made money last few years. I say “So this is the difference with HH, where you see a problem HH sees an opportunity.” Thousands of Ramcoz workers saw a problem and HH saw an opportunity to make billions. Thousands of Lima Bank workers saw a problem and HH saw an opportunity to make billions get cheap houses and farms. Hundreds of Sun Hotel workers saw a problem over the withholding of their ten percent service charges and HH saw an opportunity to get billions on the Company profit sheet. Zambians see a lot of problems and in his usual way HH is ready to seize the opportunity!

  212. i have been to thepicturemonger . blogspot . com and I have seen the behaviour that Mr. Sata has portrayed.

    It is very appalling. Seriously Zambia, is this the kind of president you want to elect….SERIOUSLY:o????

    Let us be serious. HH has said, we must sit down and discuss things in a civil and calm manner. Mr. Sata wants to use violence and shout at the to of his voice.

  213. top of his voice.

    Arguing with a policeman surely. That’s the president ou want to elect.

    Zambia, if you vote Sata, you might end up regretting your decision.

  214. I choose to vote for someone who can have approx. K21 billion and increase that amount (in 2 years) to K31 billion.

    Imagine what he can do to the Zambian economy in a period of 3 years.

    Zambia, this opportunity will never come again. Let us vote HH.

  215. In the Guardian Weekly Puta the reknowned lawyer says, to quote the newspaper lead story, “He (Puta) also said there was no need for people to oppose Banda and that such a move would mean double standards on the part of those claiming to admire the Late President’s legacy ..Puta also said the next president should have character and proven track record and added that one’s age could not be used as a barometer to determine their suitability for leadership. He said Ronald Reagan has remained one of the best American presidents who rose to power in his 70s”

  216. Beware of rich men. Take note that when a rich man takes what is not theirs he will not take peanuts. When a richman pilfers he will take billions even if it means thousands of miners getting nothing. When a richman steals he will take billions from workers such as the Sun Hotel workers service charges without batting an eyelid. If given access to state coffers what guarantee do we have that he will not rip off the Zambian people as he attempted to do with the Sun Hotel Workers? He only paid back after being taken to Court. Is that what we need in State House?

  217. Zonda uzalema. “muunthu niwa kalijo, niwa kalijo, niwa JEALOUS.” – MC Wabwino.
    Vote for the UPND’s HH for a real ray of hope and change that all Zambians can believe and trust in.

  218. Viva HH, Zambia forward! We need to move on to new ideas. Those interested in pre-modern times, you have a chance to become modern.

  219. Bembas are the most tibal people in Zambia.
    Imagine if HH was as illiterate as our Sata!!
    Come on now Bemba’s, stop just supporting a log like Sata.
    Give the nationa a serious candidate like, Valentine Chitalu, Bwalya Ng’andu aba soma, abapitako musukulu, abasambilila bane!

  220. No. 370 Proud Zambian and No 368, are part of the new ideas and ray of hope you are talking about denying workers at Sun Hotels their legal dues? Are part of those new ideas and ray of hope negotiating on the opposite side of Sun International and after giving them extraordinary perks becoming their Board Chairman the following day? Can we have someone like that in State House and hope that ethics will be upheld?

  221. Mark my words, Sata will never respect the constitution if given a chance to go to State House. We would have given ourselves a Mugabe.

  222. No. 372 Zeus, we must remember that people were butchered and lost their lifes in Chawama because of some known politicians that are vying for office. These very same people have been in power since Zambia gained independence and more of us are poorer today and they have not made any change or difference. The country would risk spending further finances because it has become apparent that these same politicians have health problems. How can anyone think of entrusting power to such individuals? We would all be butchered like those in Chawama! A fresh of breath air and new blood is what we need. Anything else is retrogressive to the plight of our people. HH, Zambia forward!

  223. It appears the PF have uplifted the UPND’s motto Zambia the way forward. Are there any legal proceedings lawyers that we can follow up this case?

  224. #376, The same politician/Bemba-comedian is believed to have served under the British colonial government against the people who liberated Zambia from the colonialists then!

  225. HH u are trying to work before u crow, start as an MP if not ward Counselor, people need to see your actions from these levels, then move to presidential platform. we dont to know what u can do for the country if voted as president now since u have no such political experience.

  226. If I were HH I would rather have no political experience than have the political experience that Sata and RB boasts of which has left 80% of Zambians in abject poverty.

  227. LOOK HERE YOU CHAPS NONE OF OPPOSITION CHAPS IS GOING TO WIN WHEATER THE POST WITH IT’S INTENSIFIED LIES ORO NOT RB WILL TAKE THE DAY.THE POST NEWSPAPER IS NOT ZAMBIA,DOES NOT FEED THE POOR PIPO OF ZAMBIA.FRED MEEMBE IS SUPER RICH MAN COZ OF HIS LIES AND PIPO LIKE YOU WHO DO NOT ACCEPT THE REALITIES THAT MMD HAS CHANGED THE FACE OF THE COUNTRY.VIVA MMD,VIVA RB

  228. Lets put these presidents in a dancing competition. Some of them cant even shake their bodies!! HH where is your vigour? I think Sata can beat them all. So supoort pabwatoooooooooo!! We want an entertaining and action oriented president!!

  229. Lol! This is sad…..you can cut the tribalism with a knife. Good luck to all the candidates. I look forward to reading the comments after the election, once Sata and HH realise that, once again, they have done the country a disservice and missed out on an opportunity to topple the MMD by forming an alliance. What a shame!

  230. I always wonder why we as Zambians always find it difficult and we are always jealous to vote for the best man for the job. There is no reason why anyone cannot see that HH is the best candidate Zambia has ever had. It is for this reason why he keeps reminding people that you should not vote along tribal lines, but for the best candidate with credible credentials. No more, no less. HH, Zambia forward!

  231. we Zambians we like to hear good things like more money in pukets and changing things in 90 days.We must think before we vote,same old people who were in KKs days and now they want to rul Zambia.I hate people who talk about tribalism,this is Zambia(ONE ZAMBIA ONE NATION) we should be like these other countary there at war because of tribalism. VOTE HH

  232. this man is playing a veryn dangerous game leveling acussation against RB that he can not prove. this is reflecting very badly on his crdebility, but then zambian politics are full of emotions and not transparency, intergrity, dignity, integrity sincerity. just the one who buys more booze
    yaba we are a wasted people mwe

  233. Only uneducated, those from the bemba clan looking for jobs are with Sata. Progressive, educated, true democrats and the youth looking for change and butter and break on the table see HH as the best hope for Zambia. Vote for HH.

  234. It amazes me that ZNBC could black list Sata’s rally in Kitwe and could not show the multitude that came to witness HH’s nomination and his rally. They only showed people that surrounded HH at the supreme entrance.
    Surely what nonsense is this? Give us full information so that we judge independently.
    By the way I listened to Sata’s campaign on the radio, as usual the man was just ranting about,insulting,teasing and doing his trademark comedy. I must say the rally was packed with drunken call boys. Meanwhile word on the street NIPA Kuboookooooo

  235. Zambia’s best comedian yesterday was performing in kitwe(SATA). Total comedy. Zambia is not interested with comedians. We want real change. And please Lusaka Times show us the pictures for HH’s nomination. i saw the crowd. Why are you scared to show us the pictures. HH has gained ground in Lusaka while PF is losing ground. Everyday pipo are resigning from PF

    The work force for HH and kaponyas for Sata. Viva HH

  236. How can a presidential candidate with a large following of unregistered voters win an election.He doesnt even campaign in rural areas.We shall see.This puts HH at the brinx of becoming republican president.come 30/11

  237. ba njombwinjo ninshi imwe you are the only one who is intellecftually capable to discuss politics? please since you have made us aware of this fact please enlighten us since you are so enlightened.

    atase mulelanda bwino mwalitumpa

  238. 371 VJ Valentine Chitalu has not explained what happened in the privatisation of the companies and where the monies realised have gone. I don’t understand why he and Stuart Cruckshank have not been visited by the Task Force!

  239. NI PAKUBOKO…..VIVA HH, WE WANT HH…, WE WANT HH…, IN FORWARD MUKWAI! WE DON’T WANT PEOPLE WITH VISION APART FROM WE WILL CONTUNUE FROM WHERE NSO..NSO… LEFT AND KAPONYA TYPE OF PRESIDENT, EMPTY BRAINS. LOL…..

  240. #407 NI PAKUBOKO…..VIVA HH, WE WANT HH…, WE WANT HH…, IN FORWARD MUKWAI! WE DON’T WANT PEOPLE WITH NO VISION APART FROM WE WILL CONTUNUE FROM WHERE NSO..NSO… LEFT AND KAPONYA TYPE OF PRESIDENT, EMPTY BRAINS. LOL…..

  241. is it really posible for zambians to vote not based on tribal grounds. first of all lets look at history and precedence set before us. honestly speaking lets call a spade for a what it is. tongas are known to be highly tribalistic that is snot to say n other tribe is but when you lok at the degree to which it is practised the variation between tongas and lozis is quiet high compared to other tribes.

    why did HH even make such a statement in the first place? did nyone say they wouldn’t vote for him because of his tribe? by virtue of him making that statement implies that even he knows and agrees the general feeling of people otherwise he wouldn’t have made it.

  242. Proud Zambian you still have not answered on whether you think it was ethical for HH to sit on the opposite side of Sun International when negotiating the privatisation of Mosi-o-tUNYA hOTEL AND GIVING THEM UNBELIEVABLE CONCESSIONS and the day after being rewarded with the Chairmanship of the Board of Sun Hotel. You have also not answered whether you think it was right for HH to try and take away the legal entitlement of ten percent service charge from the workers. These are the issues you should try to address. Ofcourse this is unless you just firmly believe that, “It must be a Tonga”

  243. I WOULD RATHER SIT ON A NEST OR RED ANTS NAKED THAN VOTE FOR HH. this will be a family affair kinda country if we do that. toangas and Lozi are genetically predisposed t be tribalistic. its in their genes.

    once we do that we will not have a say as this country’s public offdice will be full of the hakaindes,hamuboonos and all the h’s we can think of. TETI

  244. well said zeus. indeed let somebody answer that. i think it would be a good idea to find out from his surbodinates what kind of a boss he is. the kind that is also after their welfare anbd not only the makuta

  245. Come what may HH for presidency .latest news HH has more support in Lusaka ,Western,central and southern province .King lewanika has endorsed HH and advaised his subjects to vote for HH .

  246. Losers are fighting each each (SATA+ HH)while RB the winner is just watching and enjoying every bit of it! haha haha hahahaha how amazing!

  247. AKALIJO, KALIJO MULEKE GUYS, THATS WHY THEY DON’T WANT TO VOTE FOR HIM, THEY CAN’T SEE WHAT THE MAN HAS TO OFFER ALL THEY INTERESTED IN IS TRIBAL ISSUES WHICH WILL NOT TAKE US ANYWHERE, DALO..DALO..VIVA HH

  248. CHIPONDA CHA LAST I THINK SATA IS A BETTER CANDIDATE HES THA MAN OF WORKS WHY SHOULD CABINET MINISTERS INCREASE THEIR SALARIES ON THE EXPENSE OF POOR TAXE PAYERS
    MMD ABASH ,ABASH

  249. Tribal talk is nonsense. Realistically, who can deliver better?

    HH: He has excelled in Business but people say he has enriched himself at the expense of poor Zambians. – (ZPA)

    Sata : Every ministry he has worked in , something Good has come out.

    Conclusion : Any sane mind will give Sata a chance.

  250. PABWATO FYE CHAPWA HH IS TRIBALIST TONGA TOO MUCH KAPATULULA
    SATA 1 NOVEMBER PRESIDENT RB BACK TO HIS FARM AND HH CONCETRATE ON YOUR FIRM SATA FOR THE PEOPLE

  251. mmd has been in power for more than six terms and people get low salaries pensioners not being paid people being unlawful detained without goin to court for two years i wonder how much they need to deliver abash mmd mmd or they should rule in chipata with rb

  252. i never contribute because your system is always saying too many people are posting.This is irritating please sort it out otherwise its not worth my time at all.Disappointed

  253. let the Tongas and Lozis vote HH the rest of zambia will vote Hon RB or Hon SATA, let them tribalist do the maths……..mukalila muchi lozitonga…….muzalila muchi tongalozi lets see your comments on 3/11/20
    buy loads of paper towels,cry u will.have you ever wondered why the late Arthur Wina( a very good man,with zambia,s best interest at heart )never won MMD leadership against chiluba(a thief)OR Chona/kk
    you tribalists scare us all

  254. i fear violence more than i fear tribalism. even thogh none of them is cool. But i treasure Civility. leaves me with one choice i guess. Viva HH.

  255. #423 nec MARTHA…..wapatulula against HH for pantu mutonga and RB pantu ba n,goni you are no different dear…… iwe ukalila pa monday the 3rd november 2008

  256. COME 1 NOVEMBER 2008 WE ALL SING: SATA FOR PRESIDENT

    CHORUS
    SATA FOR PRESIDENT indeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee x 3
    SATA FOR PRESIDENT enshaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa x 3
    SATA FOR PRESIDENT cacineeeeeeeeeeeeeee x 3
    SATA FOR PRESIDENT inyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa x x
    SATA FOR PRESIDENT yessssssssssssssssss x 3

  257. yesterdays comedy rally i saw only street kids and street men attending the rally! is educated zambian ready to ruled by streetkid and kaponyas? GO RB GO RB “the hour as come”

  258. you should ve left sata to beat rb now and yours was going to be 2011. you guys dont learn, it seems you didnt see what happened in 2006, the same will happen rb will win with small votes while you guys we love and wnt will share votes, mmd will always remain in power if you do not work up.

  259. #427 Batata l hear you, my mother is Lenji/bemba and my father is n,goni/lala l speak all 4 lingos and go to all four villages when in zambia.we all get along here.so this tribal thing coming from people is a shock to my system, its only now l see true colors .we should all treasure civility…but not divide our country on tribal lines

  260. Its unbelivable that omost everyone on here is being sooooooo tribalistic, it would really help if people stoped being so personal about thez issues. A president rules evryone whether bemba or tonga, whether u like it or not, if HH wins, he will be your president. if Sata wins, he will be your president. so lets forget the tribalistic manners and behave like people with a good vision for this nation.

  261. Hey guys, you’re not deraling with computer illiterates here, how can I receive a “too many people pasting now, hit the return key and try later only to be faced with ”Duplicate comment detected; it looks as though you’ve already said that! when I try later? If this is censorship Lusakatimes.com style, its cheap and alright damn.

  262. HONESTLY HOW CAN SOMEONE WHO THINKS VOTE FOR SATA. IS HE A NEW SATA OR THE SAME CHAP WHO LED TO THE FORMATION OF FDD AFTER FIRING 22 MINISTERS IN A VERY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. DONT BLAME HIM WHEN HE FIRES YOU TOO.

  263. HH ni SAKALANYONGO – Let him bring back our money from RAMCOZ which disppeared mysteries when he was in-charge! KI SHOLI ZOONA!

  264. atleast sata fires people who dont know what they are doing blind followers i would not vote than vote for people who get rich stealing poor people s money go sata chilufya kalubula wa bachushi mu zambia

  265. All well meaning Zambians should vote for HH, he is healthy unlike the other guys. RB runs on one kidney and Sata’s heart is in a terrible condition. There are more merits to HH than the other guys.

  266. HH should have waited for 2011. When he looses this time UPND will think twice in 2011, because the man would have lost two elections already. PF-UPND pact would have been the best deal. This one is between SATA & Sugar Daddy Rupiya. I am in Zed and I know whats going on. HH will as usual be a good loser. UPND should do their home work by sorting out tribalism in their party first if they have to get into plot on

  267. I agree with #340. Bamakaka imwe stop this tribal nonsense! Remember what happened in Rwanda between the Hutus and Tusi’s. In case you dont know what am on about rent or buy a DVD – Hotel Rwanda(if you can afford) and watch.Bamwansakabinga imwe wake up and see reality. For me its The Tonga Bull. GO HH

  268. #445.Do you come from a home or a house without people who induct children with sound education on simple matters of life.Please, I beg you mature one, the PF_UPND PACT will never take place and it is time you forgot about that day-dream.Hon. Sata has already filed in his nomination under PF support. Sir HH has equally filed in his nomination under the might UPND.We are tired of telling you that HH, the Incomig Zambian President to-be, has more national representation than your Sata. So, this 30/10/2008 election is there for you to know that HH is widely supported the Sata. This will be clear on Nov 4, 2008. just wait for results instead of wasting your time.

  269. Vote for the MAN of the MOMENT HH, for a real ray of cahnge and hope that all Zambians can believe and trust in.
    Sir HH has declared 38.8 billion ZK as his total money after an easy compilation of all his stuff. This is 57% increase in terms of his 2006 declaration of 23 -26 bili ZK for Sir HH.
    PF (Poor Finisher) Hon. Sata has failed to tell us Zambians how much money he has except bla bla bla, some guns here, some share with STANCHART. Hon Sata does not even keep track of his money properly. We want a figure from Sata instead of doubts.
    How can Sata lead Zambia if doesn’t know how to calculate his money due to undereducation?

  270. My advice to Sata & HH is simple and yet benefial to the Zambian pipo. As separate parties u will not defeat MMD.This is the only time to remove MMD from power because in 2011 they will stronger. Form a pact, let Sata stand, after winning HH will b veep & HH will stand in 2011 and be president.
    election results:
    RB = 43%
    Noah = 20%
    HH = 25

  271. #251 has a point. Some of u blacks are so simple minded. U think u are different from each other-wooo.Ever heared a white person talking rubbish about another white person? Bantu languanges are so similar but u are fighting-primitive indeed.How come u try twisting ur tongues trying 2 make an impression on English but pretend 2 be distance from other people of your kind?

  272. #448 30 October is not very far. Lets wait and see. May the most popular candidate win. its not the question of best candidate but the most popular.

  273. Using 453 formula, Unfortunately the equation below wont work

    Noah+HH=57
    RB= 43

    But what will happen is this
    Noah= 43
    RB=35%
    HH=20%
    Bad ballots=2%

  274. Please, save yourselves some would-be shocking heart-attacks with unnecessary percentages for the 2008 Presidential elections! November 4, 2008 is not far from today!

  275. Vote the Man of the moment HH for Zambian Preisdent.
    I call upon all the UPND’s HH supporters to relax our campaings on the Internet and focus on the campaign on the ground. We need to map out a strategy. Let us organise a website called IntellectualsForHH . com. I also urge all business men who have real billions of kwacha to come up with a KwachaBillionairesForHH . com sot that we all can give the Incoming Zambian President to-be HH the much needed morale and moral support.
    Viva Ijanza, Viva the Forward-point-hand, Viva Kwaanja, Viva Mazoho, Viva Ukuboko, Viva HH and HHHHHHHHHHHH……

  276. I have now seen that non- and under-educated characters are now throwing insults on almost everyone who does not agree with undereducate Hon Sata and his PF in the language which is used for insults in Zambia and stealing. Let us all well-meaning Zambians condemn this satanic act of insulting people.
    Insulting is very unproductive and dangerously to our Zambian community.
    Strategy now, HH supporters. We need to reach those in the rural arears and compounds as soon as possible.
    Vote the UPND’s HH for a real ray of change and hope that all Zambians can believe and trust in.

  277. HH waboola, HH has come, HH abwela, HH aataha….
    Fellow Citizens, I am now signing off. We continue our door-to-door campaigns for HH regardless of what is happening around.
    Nkuyumayuma taata, nkuyumatyuma. Nkuyumayuma baama, nkuyumayuma.
    HH yomwe (HH is the one).
    CHOICE YABOOLA (CHOICE has come).
    May the good Lord God bless you all as you blog.
