Heritage Party (HP) president, Godfrey Miyanda has said he is a serious contender in the forthcoming presidential election and dismissed as malicious, allegations that he has been bought to split the votes.
Speaking on Radio Phoenix programme ‘Let the People Talk,’ Brigadier-General Miyanda said he was a man of integrity who had always spoken out against corruption and could not be bribed by anybody.
“My political career has been reasonably good and I am not here to spoil the elections because I am not one of those who can be paid or easily bribed,” Gen Miyanda said.
Gen Miyanda said it was “criminal” for opponents to say he had been bought to spoil the elections because that would disadvantage him as people would think he was not a serious contender.
He said he was the only politician who had the right qualifications for the president, having risen from the office of minister without portfolio to that of acting president.
He said he did not need to be an economic genius to develop Zambia because he understood the operations of the Government and would create conditions where the various technocrats would function if elected.
Gen Miyanda said if elected president, he would use the three-year period to 2011 as a transition from the ongoing programme of the MMD to his party’s village concept.
He said self-government, which starts with an individual, should be the starting point when trying to solve Zambia’s problems.
He said by the end of the three-year transition, Zambians would appreciate and embrace the village concept which is founded in the principles that were applied by the Zambian society.
“We are the only unique party with the village concept. The village is your life; a village is land and land is Zambia,” Gen Miyanda said.
He said the village concept was the only answer to the development of Zambia’s economic development, hence, the need to fully implement it if voted into power.
“A lot of people have been laughing at our concept but what should be noted is that it is the only answer to the development of Zambia. I can assure the nation that once this concept is fully implemented, Zambia will move forward,” he said.
Gen Miyanda said it was sometimes frustrating to lose an election even after articulating issues so well but he had decided to soldier on especially after noticing other people doing things wrongly when he had the solutions.
He said he was not a one-man band and opted to contest the elections after getting encouragement from Zambians across the country.
Times of Zambia
Weak general….
No strategy…
Bloggers,I have played a game of chess for a long time now. In chess, the best form of defence is to attack with a caution.I want to all the Tonga peopl who have stated using the Label I am using in my username as I have asked them to do. Now I would like to ask all non-Tonga people who are not TRIBAL to start using that label too.I challenge all Bemba people who are not TRIBAL to rebuke the Bemba-Tribalists who are writing that a Tonga Person will NEVER rule Zambia for this notion only exists in Bemba-tribalists fantasy world. Please, all non-Tribal Zambians let us all stand up and rebuke the Bemba-Tribalists.
Otherwise ur the the best candidate bt u cant win….ur clean..honest..politics is not for honest pipo…I luv u general
cheap politics and stop bringing GOD in foolish blogging activities u pedophiles trying to hide in the name of God.
Good for us PF (MMD) ine i belong to 2 parties. We shall cross the Kabompo with a boat
badala dont worry abou bembas…mos pipo who claim to be bemba are from luapula..kasai ba kaboke…bana ba Chiluba
i think u are the best among the 4,onlly that u hibernate to much and only appear when u in danger
“Gen Miyanda said it was sometimes frustrating to lose an election even after articulating issues so well but he had decided to soldier on especially after noticing other people doing things wrongly when he had the solutions.He said he was not a one-man band and opted to contest the elections after getting encouragement from Zambians across the country.”I like your composure Brig. General Miynada. Go on and all the best in this 30/10/2008 election.Time has come (nako ifitile, ciindi casika) for HH to be Zambian President so that all Zambians can enjoy economic independence.
some are bisa from nabwalya..thye live with hyenas…
Wrong calculation dear general.
28 days to the elections…….would it be possible to hold presidential debates in Zambia. I remember the Late LPM’s supporters casting down that idea because of his lack of eloquence but issue is different now. It just might allow people to see the candidates for who and what they are…..
hh president….another by election coz i will bwezani will poison him,just like they did with mazoka
This oldman is just disturbing the young man HH.he should have just supported upnd.With a bit of reorganisation upnd can be stronger.At least its like hh is a principled young man.
I used to support you but in you went in hiding and I had no option but the change the camp!!!!
General you have integrity BUT I MEAN TAKE A BREAK. SUPPORT SATA, WITHDRAW NOW GENERAL.YESS YOU ARE SPLITTING THE VOTES…WITHDRAW NOW.
It is unreseanable for the general to hope that he can win even when he knows that he can never win.Abash tribalism and vote for real change.VIVA HHHH AND Zambia foward.
#7,I am not worried about Bembas,I am teaching Bemba-Tribalists a lesson that you must do things carefully for always one mistake will be too costly for you. That is how we play CHESS.The one who plays WHITE pieces on the chess board starts the game and has an advantage in the beginning as an attacker, but the BLACK PIECES player follows with a defensive game until the white pieces player makes a terrible mistake.By making an analogy of this CHESS tactic to this Tribalism sccenario, the Bemba-tribalists forgot that, if we TONGA People accept the tag they(BTs) gave us and publicly expose them (BTs),then TRIBALISM will backfire on them Bemba-Tribalists.
Iwe #14 ka Choma1 niwe ka muselela kwakaba!!!
Still support the General Viva Miyanda Viva anti corruption drive; thieves are shaking
#18 – Dude!!! you have serious issues!!
GENERAL WE ARE NOT IN A WAR SITUATION NOW, WE MAY NEED U WHEN ELECTIONS ARE RIGGED. FOR NOW I CAN FREELY GIVE YOU AN ADVICE TO VOTE FOR HH. ECONOMIC LIBERATOR. GO HH GO.
Now that, the label the Bemba-Tribalists put on all Tonga and other Zambians like Bwezani RB has backfired, they (BTs) are busy trying to beg with me to remove the part “- LABELLED as a TRIBALIST BY a group of BEMBA-TRIBALISTS (mainly UNDEREDUCATED or Kaponyas) who are small DISTINCT group from the ORIGINAL NORMAL REAL BEMBA PEOPLE of Zambia, just because I am born Tonga and succesful” from my username. No, nay, no. It is too late Bemba-Tribalists.
I only way I will remove that part in my username is for you(BTs) to stop calling any other Zambian who is not a Bemba person, e.g. a Tonga, as a tribalist.
# 18… u c am from the east bt I can speak tonga, lozi, bemba etc… bembas are the worst tribalists….Sata addresses rallies in bemba…so brace ur selves 4 bemba press conferences…if Satan wins..bemba appointments…kaya
Malabishi
Listen if your re serious about Levy’s legacy of anti corruption, this is the man; its an open secret……..
TONGA ARE ALL FAILERS IN LIFE!!!! FINITO
#26 I mean the General; we are in a war against poverty and against corruption….
Ifi tonga filala ne ng’omba lyonse!
# 25.. u must be from congo….
#21, yes. A Bemba-Tribalists calling as TRIBAL because I was born from a Tonga family is a SERIOUS ISSUE as you have rightly put it in your “#18 – Dude!!! you have serious issues!!”. If you thought it was a joke, I now advise you to know that it is a serious issue and the Bemba-tribalists will not have it easy.To this end, I ask all peace loving and Normal Bemba People to rebuke the terrible words which we are seeing written in Bemba Language by Bemba-tribalists.
I all the Presidential Candicates success in this 30/10/2008 election. May the best MAN win.
#3 ALSO TELL YOUR FELLOW TONGAS WHO ARE TRIBALIST TO REPENT AND EMBRACE OTHER TRIBES.
general was not hidding. he was reflecting on his loss. only it took one person’s life time.
Dear General,
Where were you when we needed you;Follow this order please:
2008: Sata
2011: Hh
2016: Lubinda
2021: Miyanda – learn to wake up early and make decisions. No wonder you struggled with raising the required number of people to register. You are the best but you come in too late.
Ba General if you are not here to split votes, then why are you on the scene bcoz definitely you CANNOT win. So you have resurfaced to split votes.
#28 i am with you in this one; Viva the General
# 29 u sound bitter….typical of genocide causers…
General split the votes’ we are very happy with that’ u can even consult the post newspaper’ viva Rb.. Sata lishilu: HH HAKAIVOTELA HUMWINE.
What votes can General Miyanda split when he will get almost nothing? at the last election he got just over 46,000. he will be lucky if he even manages 5,000 this time. Let him do if for his personal record. Sorry General, but maybe 2011 and NOT WITH YOUR PERSONAL HERITAGE BECAUSE IT WILL NEVER WIN YOU ANYTHING – I wonder if you even have followers NOW. I MEAN IF YOU COULD NOT EVEN MANAGE A PALTRY 200 TO FILE YOUR NOMINATION, COME ON GENERAL, you could have even donated that K20million to charity than waste it like you did. move with time, its RB’s turn to serve Zambia.
so if its zambia u r concerned about and you are just not itching for power why didn’t u just share yo solutions with parties that actually matter. both yo wife and i know that u just wasted twenty million,… u r indeed a man of honor but every election year u only come on the scene a few weeks before election day, clearly politics is not yo thing.. so i’m guessing u know u stand no chance but need the ka brown envelop.
Soldiers take orders without thinking but not generals, a general must be good planner if not then his unit is doom. This is what has happened with Miyanda’s unit (Doom). generals are in PF Viva Sata
Its time people removed the tribalism tag from hh and conNcentrate on real issues affecting the country.All tribes are equal and any tribe can produce a president.No one should describe other tribes as being thieves nor should people describe upnd as being tribal.
first and foremost, am disgusted by tribal comments coming from # 3. whats your problem kanshi? focus on real issues and not cheap, petty tribal talk. remember its one zambia one nation. and as you are busy forstering tribal division think about burundi and other countries which thrive on being tribal. and for goodness sake, think about your children. you dont know what you are fueling. maybe i should sponsor you to go to burundi and see what tribal wars can do. you are a shallow minded citizen. what about us who are half bemba half tonga? where does that leave us? mwatusabila badala. it seems you are full of hate. get a life and change your mind set my brother
Yes General, you were bought to spilt votes, but you are wasting your time. Why last minute!!!
Sata is on radio talking no sense.
I strongly feel the General has entered this race late. I would have loved him to join HH to strengthn UPND which has a good economical plan for Zed,then incorparate his village concept which has worked well for countries like Bots. The two should consider working together in 2011 if they fail to make it now,which is highly a possibility.
#45 which radio station?
I find the General A bit out of touch with reality. He still thinks Kaunda is still in power has to get rid of him.The Concept of Village regrouping as he articulates it only works well in a socialistic or communists environment. In this era of chiefs even when they dont have subjects,would be difficult.He needs to be reminded that we are in a capitalistic era were every one is important and feels they can do and say any thing.The question is how do you unite these villages. Is the general going to ask every one to identify were their villages are. What about those who are citizens from outside Zambia what hapens to them.So bwana it will not work. Just abandon the idea it is far fetched.
Why are upnd supporters always talk about tribal issues ,is it because they are worst tribalists. #23 if you were lenje or chewa supporting upnd i would have joined you in calling bemba’s tribalists now you are tonga and supporting your fellow tonga, no my dear i won’t .I will go for pf since i want change ,go pf go
mr miyanda i will vote for you
# 45 as usual speaking in bamba thinking that everyone speaks or understands bamba….
Iwe chi boooo, mind you talking!
tonga lozi bemba ngoni nsenga luvale bisa kaonde, whatever tribe,we are zambians, thats the bottom line. i don’t understand how learned pipo like you bloggers can be dwelling on petty issues when there are important issues of national inerest at hand. sometimes i wonder………… may God have mercy on us, all of us.
#29. I wish to correct you. No Bemba has ever ruled Zambia. Chiluba could speak Bemba but was not a Bemba. KK was from Northen but was not a Bemba. The only Bemba you can talk about was Kapwepwe who tried to be leader.Abashala muli fye ba kabolala. Ba kabolala ta mwakatekepo.
Its funny how the biggest ‘tribalists’ all have foreign flags next to their user names – maybe it says something about our apparent loyalty.
I am UPND, but what difference will that make since I am thousands of miles away and cannot vote?
talking about tribe. my FOOT!!!!! In this day and age?
by the way ba General, before you filed your nomination i had no choice, but now at least i can vote for you even if i know you wont win. i cant endorse wrong things being done by the rest. so General be assured of my vote.
general u wasted ur 20 mita . what makes u keep on donating cash to grz
I am getting worried by the hatred that is being exhibited here. Tone down guys, we are all zambians! Pliz
vote PF
Going by the 2006 election results General Miyanda you are going to be a factor in these election,now i understand why u had a tough time raising 200 voters for your nominatons. levy got 1,177,846,Sata got 804,748,HH got 693,772 and Gen Miyanda got 42,891 so you have just wasted your 20,million.the diference beween Sata and levey was 373,098 of which Bwezani wont get this time around as Sata has done his home work by going in the rural areas to look for more votes this time last time Solwezi was a mmd stronghold but not this time PF is coming out strong and with his coming over the weekend all the kaondes married to the miners are joing ubwatooooooooooooooo.more money in your pockets
Maestro mwafisenda sana serious naimwe ahhh, no wonder we call you bloody and f@#ken tribalists.
?ountrymen tribalism does not pay in anyway,lets discuss issues here at not tribalism,we dont eat tribalism.lets analyse the candidate s manifestos and their plans to make zambia a better place.HH and upnd are not tribal,its high time we removed that tribal tag from hh.Though i am mmd but upnd is not a bad party
#49 BEMBA FOR SATA!! Isnt that tribalist???
Why is it that out of the 7 majors tribes its only Tongas who want to rule so much.Please be patient yo time will come i guarantee you just remember the more you want something badly the further it shall slip from yo fingers.Iam Lozi and i dont care who runs our country provided he uplifts the lives of all zambians.I know for a fact that one day a lozi,luvale or kaonde shall be president it may not happen in my lifetime but it will happen.
This Maestro Hheh–whatever is very bad element and a disgrace to the
Tonga brotherhood. It is because of three or four ‘Maestro’ figures
around HH that is costing the young man his political career. Maestro
please Shut up!!!!!!!!! ONE ZAMBIA, ONE NATION!! I WUD LIKE TO FIND OUT
WHERE YOU ARE BASED SO THAT I CAN APPLY A ‘MAPATIZYA’ ON YOUR DULL HEAD!
If you went to many districts in Zambia this Language “Bemba” if used is associated nabu kabolala.”Masholi”. Am not saying Bembas are thieves but that is the perception about it. Because many thieves use this language.There is no need to be so pround about it.
dont be cheated about this election. guys Zambia is voting for RB; change from MMD or RB might only come in 2011. and for those of you oabroad, apart from southern which RB will share with HH,Coperbelt and Lusaka which RB will come second to Sata, MMD will sweep east, west, get north-west, share Northern which is the swing province and spoil luapula. its an RB win. Sata is nothing outside lusaka radio stations. watch oct 30 and remember this analysis when sata cries rigging yet wed have voted
MUBWATO means Human private parts either Rear or front So PF stop insulting before we call Mateyo to arrest you.
A Tonga will never rule Zambia unless the population of Zambia is out numbered by cattle!!
mr miyanda you are the man dont stop on the 30th octeber see beyond that and coz this was going to be your year but people are saying where was he….ngatwalimu votela.
Please country men, we are all Zambians lets be reasonable. As long as we are Zambians, lets be in unity,free men and women standing under our flag of our land and voting for the right candidate on 30th Oct.
# 68, you are foolish, that is not acceptable behavior
# 68 ur great galu….
Can LT please flash out tribalist like #68; its neuseating at the worst.
# 68 is a galu and not kalu!
Village concept is plagiarised Ujaama of Tanzania’s late Nyerere. We all know what mess/economic malaise Ujaama brought to Tanzania. General keep on going to church and being a good citizen. Prtesidency is not for you.
LT, do something. This is becoming unacceptable. We cannot have people like #68 saying what he is saying.
FULL TIME ‘GENERAL’ CHANCER!
BA MIYANDA BAIL OUT AND TRY IN 2011..THIES ELECTIONS IS VERY SERIOUS AND WE DONT NEED SPLIT DECISSIONS.. OK!!! RESPECT!.
well said Nationalist at #70; i wish to hit the road, am rushing for a meeting at the taj pamodzi; remember its RB
Not commenting on #68 would be great injustice. that is a foolish comment from a big fool who is not worth of anything in this civilization. and stop using the tag of a Great Man, the Great Kalu’s mind is no where near your shallow thinking. shame on you.
Somebody help me please knowledge is power. Does the general have any mps or councellors and if so where? i am in the dark on his party.
IFI BABEMBA NE FI TONGA IF THEY WERE SHARING A PROVINCIAL BOUNDARY SHOULD HAVE FOUGHT A BITTER TRIBAL WAR. LUCKELY THERE SEPERATED BY LUSAKA AND CENTRAL PROVINCES
monique, youre too sweet not to have this data. the general has no mps, no councillors, no ward chairman, no branch chairpersons and no national executive committee. he is alone and borrowed 200 supporters for his nomination. we’re trying to establish whether his wife Angela even supports him. let light shine on you and know that he is alone
Ipepala lyelyashi ilyalelo ala naliwama sana. I even bought 2 papers today. Shrek nasebanabaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!!!!!!!
I’M TIRED OF THIS BEMBA/TONGA CHILDISH TALK. LET US REASON ABOVE TRIBAL LINES. ONE ZAMBIA ONE NATION IS A GREAT SLOGAN. MY APPEAL TO THE TONGAS AND BEMBAS ON THIS FORUM IS THAT THEY MUST NOT FORGET THAT ZAMBIA IS MADE UP OF MORE THAN 72 LANGUAGES, THEREFORE MUCHINJE!
Stop this tribalism rubbish, u simple minded cowards! Stick together and see the way forward! One zambia one nation. Mwefipuba mwe. My mum is Bemba from Kasama, my dad is Tonga from Mazabuka. I’m a zambian! So what? There is no point insulting one another online. Mweka mweka ba Zambia. Find better things to do. Other nationals balemimwenamo!UBUTUTU.
sure ba General you have lost it…you are too docile to be president.i think ubu soldier bwalimyonaula ba mudala.just pull out before you waste your little resources and time or kapena munatenga ka brown envelope from RB?
IWE 30, just assess the calibre of some members of LAZ, and the things they are doing. Why are you being emotional, are you one of them? Just blog sensibly and bring issues here not vulgar language in the absence of common reasoning. Anti rigging have the right to approach the courts, I didnt take that from them. However, b4 wasting time and resources u need sound advice, that was my point in case u missed it.
Chief whip ur a leader…we need pipo like u
# 168 does not deserve to be Zambian…must be somalian
# 68 does not deserve to be Zambian…must be somalian
#68 and a bemba who addresses the Zambian public in his stupid kaponyas language will never rule this country.Over our dead bodies!
#51 what is bamba?
#94 meant
‘over your dead bodies!’
#26 you are very right they will never be a tonga in plot 1 chess or no chess, we know you too well too well to allow,you will bury your tribalist leaders as we shall take them out
Of all the four presidential hopefulls, general Miyanda is the only one (followed by HH) who is sincere, honest, with a lot of integrity (better than Chiluba)and firmness to combat corruption and bring a change wich every Zambian would appreciate. But as one has already alluded to most people don’t like honest people. In as much as they hated Jesus Christ for no reason, it will take heaven to make Miyand the president of Zambia.
Lets try him in 2011, because this year it’s late, he hasn’t started his campain yet.
Chenjelani
LT has got to do something about the tribal posts that are always coming up here. It really is an embarrasment in this day and age to see the way some people think. Time and time again some of us ask people to tone down their language but nothing happens, which means that LT should take he responsibility and not allow tribal comments to infiltrate its pages. Do we really want our country to be like Rwanda, Congo, Sudan, Nigeria etc where tribalism has not only cost people’s lives but national development? LT you need to step up and remove all tribalist posts. We are supposed to be having informed and intelligent debates about the future of our country not trading insults.
maestro-blablabla stop this hatred God will deal with u. Zambia 4 all zambians. Why do u hate bembas so much?
the tribalists mwali tumpa. Don’t watse our time, stick to the issues ata
Maestro repent and be a nice guy.No tribe is better than the other nor inferior to the other in Zambia.Zambia is ours and we need each other.Lets love each other as Zambians,Lets work together.say no to tribalism.Yebo Maestto mwenima cousin bapati mu kabole ukuno.basimbi a ba koko ndila ku janina
I SUPPORT YOU #99 it seems this tribal thing will not end unless LT Steps in.viva one zambia one nation
#102 choma1, you appear to have a problem in comprehending issues. I have been calling for anyone to quote any of my alleged TRIBAL STATEMENT on here – LT.
Viva MaLozi alubotele ki HH. Stand up MICHAHA, Nako ifitile (Time has come). HH has come (HH waboola, HH abeela.) Wina azali YES pakati pa NO (someone will cry out YES in the middle of shouting NO) come 30/10/2008.
Vote for the UPND’s HH the only man of the moment.
Bembas are waist trabalists in africa,chuluba, sampa, sata the evil genius of trabalism dirty men
Tongas are selfish like monkeys
Lets face it Bembas are more likable.I would actually vote for a bemba tribalist than than your useless HH.He is a born loser.Tatwakamuvotele .Am not bemba by the way.
If we look at the different issues facing our country – poverty, HIV/AIDS, agriculture, deforestation, education, taxes for the mining companies, malaria, energy, access to clean water, housing etc. It is really frustrating, annoying and embarrassing to come here and find people who are completely obsessed about tribe. Which group in Zambia is not affected by the issues I have listed above? Instead of using the priviledge that we have (most other Zambians do not have access to electricity, never mind a computer) we waste our time in exchanging tribal insults again and again without ever getting tired of it. It is no wonder then, that Africa is in the state that it is in! Mulungu ati sunge
#108 THE BULL YOU HIT THE MARK…..I NO BEMBA BUT LIKE ALL TRIBES CAN NEVER VOTE FOR TONGA PARTY.THEY KNOW, WE KNOW THEY HAVE NO CHANCE
Al u quaks claiming to be tongas and trying to devide pipo thru ur useles tribalism,wat point ar u trying to prove..u wnt to fyt tribalism by tribalism,hw do u clean up wth dirty.use ur common sense..ur insulting bembas wil nt at al make a tonga win.remember he wil nid votes frm al ova zed,and tongas and bembas are in almst every district-so grow up u dogs!
There are so many issues our country has to face-poverty,HIV/AIDS, education, agriculture, deforestation, malaria,housing,access to clean water and yet us who are privilidged (most Zambians dont have access to electricity or the internet)only come here to trade tribal insults. We are the elite, the ones who should be exchanging ideas that will benefit the whole nation and yet we behave like unruly kids in the playground. What then the future for our country and our continent?
ANONYMOUS we have said ‘do not attact tribes on this blog’talk about issues not tonga this, bemba that, be mature and listen to advice.Zambia is for all zambian regardleess of tribe .
It is HH. He has the plan for the country. We need to look at real issues not this tribal nosence. HH talks development. He is level headed and is not corrupt. Vote wisely! Vote HH.
Iwe chi #7 do u understand(know) the history of Zambia?Your tribe is the most tribalistic in Zambia,be smart my friend,it’s one Zambia one nation.Ala ngamwasambilila kutumpulukako,tribalism has no place in Zambia.Foolish!!!
they never learn teza clear, like we always do
saki has gone with Rb to western provice ,i wonder what he will tell westerners “vote mmd ,vote mmd and RB, me i’m not fit to be presdo ,ulp has no idea on how govt is run please vote RB” in 2011 what will he say to the intelligent westerners about his ulp and himself?
Facts are that, you don’t need to have your tribesman in Statehouse to better your life. Whether HH wins or lose, it does not change an equation in a Tonga man’s pocket. I don’t see how Sata and RB’s winning will improve a man in Chadiza or Kaputa if they don’t have sound economic plans.
All am advising is that, you work hard and vote wisely, otherwise you die poor with hatred.
General, I salute you for your unequalled interity in and outside gvt. But you shouldn’t have joined this race now, all odds are against you. All said and done, move on.
It seems some people will not change…Stop this hate or else you perish in it, if not by drowning! shaa! No wonder we are going backwards ever, forward never!! Zambia twasebana. Cant we try for once to do things together? And you say you will go back home to develop Z..since when did devpt become tribal??
I feel pity for Miyanda. I think he tries hard to be a good man, but politics is not for ‘good’ men. The General should’ve tried 2011
stop i beg, stop it bemba’s marry tonga and vice verser….shame on you two tribes you are just making LT dirty with you ma rabbishi talks of who is who….
MIYANDA back off from this election and prove to us that you were not given a blown envelop.start working on plans and methods of winning 2011 elections .Even in 2011 don’t come in the race like a thief, pipo like you but you have dissapointed them ,please make amends ba general twapapata tufweni!
Integrity in politics please. Tribalism out.
Those of you supporting some candidates….. articulate real issues. Just because you want some kaponya to be President is neither here nor there!!
The issue is about delivering what the people want… DEVELOPMENT.
Anyway, KAPONYAs and KABOVAs out!!!
HK how are you my friend?
#45 WHAT RUBBISH DID SATA UTTER ON THE RADIO. IS TELLING PEOPLE THEIR HISTORY IS RUBBISH? WHAT KIND OF A DUNDERHEAD ARE YOU?
VOTE PF OR MMD NOT TONGA PARTY
Leave the tongas alone.Bring issues and not tribalism.You people are just scared of hh s intellect.
MIYANDA’S BEHAVIOUR SIMPLY DATE-STAMPS THE FACT THAT ZAMBIANS ARE NOT BUSINESS MINDED AND THAT THEIR THINKING IS VERY SHALLOW. HOW DOES ONE SPEND MONEY ON A NON-STARTER BUSINESS? IS THIS HOW HE CAN BEHAVE IN POWER? ZAMBIANS! BE BUSINESS-WISE.
The General is right to stand, if he loses it is in preparation for 2011 and if he wins it will consolidate HP for 2011.He is the most upright of the candidates and we should give him the chance to lead this country forward.Have you heard him calling other leaders names or indeed other leaders calling him names? He is a man of intergrity.
Icongweni ba tata, mwalitukalifya imitima. Kuti mwacita icamusango uyu. Am not saying u were paid but why making the line long when we were asking HH and Sata to work together. Am telling you, you wil be Ngondo of this year, Brg Gen Miyanda zero.
#3, even Tentamashimba, who is not Bemba strongly says HH (a Tonga) can never rlue Zambia. Why are people like you, cowards, want to bring in tribalism is every discussion? When you objectively look back over the years, you will notice which tribes have been really tribalists – definately not the Bembas.
Piece guys we are all zambians.Watch my show tomorrow on nikelodeon.My friend Patrick has a message for all Zambians.
No substance.
Ba ntungulushi we have been looking for you since 2006, you where quite kwati menshi mu mulonga, ngalelo mwafuma kwi.
You are the only one we didn’t see during the funeral and you have been quite.
Why can’t you just continue to do your besiness because i dont think the party is still in existance.
We heard that you struggle to raise 200 supporters.
Well buy us beer we will drink but we will not vote you, we supported you in 2001, that was it.
General we ideed respect you ,but winning yena i think muleibepafye,i cant think of any other better person in this race than you but lets call a spade a spade and illusions illusions.Your time has surely expired bosses.so probably think of retiring, after all its not everything we seek in life that we get
Ba General, let us face facts, you are not doing yourself any good in coming to stand as presidential candidate the last minute. I donot blame those accusing you of being sponsored to split the opposition votes in order to allow the MMD winning outright. My advise to you is that withdraw to avoid embarasing yourself-you will not get any votes.
GENERAL MIYANDA YOU ARE THE MAN OF INTEGRITY AND EVERYONE KNOWS ABOUT THAT BUT YOU NEED TO BE ACTIVE AND CAMPAIN IN ALL PROVINCES IT PAINS US YOUR SUPPORTERS TO SEE U BEING SILENT. BUT YOUR STANDING IS A GOOD STATEGY COZ EVEN IF YOU LOSE PIPO WILL NOT FORGET ABOUT YOU BUT MY PRAYER IS THAT PIPO MAY CHANGE THEIR MIND AND VOTE FOR THE GENERAL FOR A GREATER CHANGE LOVE YOU MIYANDA.
Lt how come the Green and Red marks are not showing?
Ladies and Gentlemen! Why do you accuse Bembas of being tribalists? Someone please explain why you do that because I strongly think its not fair. My parents Bemba and Tonga, if Bembas were tribalists I doubt if they would even marry Tongas. Many tribes in Zambia may favor their tribesmate in most cases. Look at chaps in MMD those in from North western province the way they behave during election time like now, they are the biggest tribalists.
Then what are u here for if not spliting votes? tell us!!!!!
GENERAL YOUR TIMING IS BAD. JUST HOPE YOU DIDN’T RECEIVE ANY BROWN ENVLOP.
VIVA PF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wise men dont talk too much, but empty tins (PF) will preach about policies which they dont understand and cant implement. My advice is go for a pact with HH, you two can make a good team. Its not too late General……..
#3, watch your mouth – not all of us are Bemba, or Tonga, but have parents and grandparent from different parts of Zed. That said, we cannot rightly claim one tribe or the next, yet we still know that Tonga’s are tribalistic. The moment HH sets foot in state house will be the day we start seeing cows roaming the streets of lusaka as all of the southern province will move here.
THEN WAT ARE U HERE 4 BIG MAN,MWAMBWENESHAMO NAIMWE…I HAV SO MUCH RESPECT 4 U…U AND I KNO THAT U CANT SCORE SO Y WAISTE PRECIOUS ENERGY AND TIME.
#104, #105 AND #127. MWE BANTU, WHY TALK ABOUT TRIBES NOW? THINK OF THE BEST CANDIDATE FOR STATE HOUSE. SOME OF US ARE BEMBAS MARRIED TO TONGAS AND HAVE NO PROBLEMS. PLEASE DONT POISON OUR CHILDREN WITH THAT KIND OF LANGUAGE.
i wish to advise LT to kindly leave the tribal user name and comment. this is a good plantform but we are slowly losing the purpose of this site.
as zambian we should strive to attack and differe with each other on principle thatn tribe or colour
do not just support HH,SATA,RB or GM just because you come from the same part of the nation.
lets support pipo with programs that are workable and can lift zambia from poverty
Regional grouping is going to divide our country,in olden days people use to settle in any part of the country and felt welcomed nomba telelo, pamulandu wa ma politics people are now divided. This is the bad seed that we are sowing in our children, they will start thinking that you will be needing a pastport to go to Choma from Kasama. Can we be realistic for once and be rational when voting.
#147 Viva
#147 I AGREE WITH YOU. WE SHOULD TALK MORE ABOUT SUPPORTING PEOPLE WHO CAN MOVE ZAMBIA FORWARD. TALKING ABOUT TRIBES AND OTHER IRRELEVANT THINGS IS A VERY CHEAP WAY OF CAMPAIGNING. IN MY OPINION, ZAMBIANS SHOULD BY NOW BE ABLE TO CAMPAIGN WITHOUT INSULTING EACH OTHER. WE ARE EDUCATED LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, LET US RESPECT EACH OTHER. AFTER ALL KK BROUGHT ONE ZAMBIA ONE NATION, OK. IAM BEMBA BUT MY VOTE IS FOR HH. 1. HE IS EDUCATED 2. YOUNG AND COMPOSED. 3. ECONOMICALLY AWAKENED TO MOVE OUR ECONOMY TO A DIFFERENT LEVEL
I totally agree with # 147.Thats really true,we dont want tribalists here!!!!!!!!!!!!
Exactly all well-meaning Zambians. Let us denounce and rebuke those who are insulting. We have insults in my language but I have not seen any. However, all insults (Insele) I have seen on LT are in Bemba. Though the insults are in Bemba, this does not mean that all Bemba people insult. All that has happened is that a few people masquarading as Bembas, i.e. Bemba-Tribalists, are tanishing the good name of Zambian Bemba People in particular and all other Zambians in general.
Viva “One Zambia, one Nation.”
Show me someone who dosent know a bemba insult…and i will show you a hypocrite…………..all the same all pipo should respect ecah other no insults please
