Retired politician Vernon Mwaanga addressing a political rally in Luanshya.

Former Information Minister Vernon Mwaanga has said it is unacceptable and an abomination for the opposition Patriotic Front and the United Party for National Development (UPND )to be accusing him and the acting President Rupiah Banda of harbouring intentions to rig the October 30 elections,without providing evidence.

Mr Mwaanga challenged the PF and UPND leaders to provide evidence on the allegations to Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ),the Zambia Police, election observers among them the Southern African Development Community (SADC), European Union before Thursday’s poll so that the matter can be addressed.

He said election rigging was a serious offense and warned that PF should not trivialize the matter.

ZANIS reports that Mr Mwaanga said Zambia and other members of SADC in August 2002 in Mauritius passed a declaration which guides member countries on holding of elections.

He outlined one of the guidelines which demands political parties participating in the elections to concede in advance the outcome of the polls.

The former Minister was speaking at a campaign rally to drum up support for acting President Rupiah Banda at Luanshya’s Kafubu stadium in Roan constituency today.

He cautioned that in the Zambian scenario, people should not only accept elections only when they won but should also do so when vice versa.

Mr Mwaanga said there are four presidential candidates contesting the race and that only one of them would win the elections.

The former Minister said the upcoming presidential election was not about change but continuity of the mandate which the people of Zambia gave to the ruling party (MMD) in 2006.

And MMD Provincial Coordinator George Mpombo assured the acting president that the MMD’s perfomance in this election will be far much better than 2006.

Mr Mpombo who is also Defence Minister said the party has embarked on an aggressive campaign in which grassroots in the province would be reached.

He dispelled reports by the opposition PF that it was in charge of the province saying those who were making such statements just wanted to send wrong information in the minds of the people about the situation on the ground.

Mr Mpombo said the people of Zambia will on October 30 make a decision on who would rule the nation and not a clique of individuals who were bent on misleading the masses.

He said the massive gathering which turned up for this afternoon’s (Sunday)rally was a manifestation of the trust which people in the province have in Mr Banda’s leadership.

He said Mr Banda has good leadership and judgment which he noted were vital ingredients in a leader.

Mr Mpombo has since pledged to ensure that the MMD dismantles the opposition PF in the province.

At the same rally, Luanshya Member of Parliament Simon Kachimba said the constituents have realised that they made a wrong decision in voting for the opposition in 2006.

Outlining some of the developments in Luanshya, Mr Kachimba mentioned that the MMD had resuscitated Luanshya Copper Mine and opened Luanshya Hospital.

Veteran Politician Matiya Ngalande reminded the gathering that the PF leader had said he would never appoint people from North western Province in decision making portifolios.

Using the same fora to appeal to the North westerners, Mr Ngalande advised the people of North western province to vote for Mr Banda for continuity of development in the province.

Political campaigns for the acting president have continued on the Copperbelt Province ahead of Thursday’s presidential election.

  4. VJ needs cash for his ARV treatment that’s why he’s active.
    Mudala, give it up. We’re sick and tired of you.
    Back up now before we come after you.

  8. “He said election rigging was a serious o f f e n s e and warned that PF should not t r i v i a l i z e the matter… Mr Mwaanga said Zambia and other members of SADC in August 2002 in Mauritius p a s s e d a declaration which guides member countries on holding of elections. He outlined one of the guidelines which demands political parties participating in the elections to concede in advance the outcome of the polls.”
    Great stuff VJ. Continue teaching us how to conduct good campaigns without i n s u l t s. You contribution to Zambian Politics is very welcome.
    Thank you Zambians. MMD now is campaigning for ecHi-ecHi. Thank and take care you all. Real Change is by our door steps.

  9. Oh no, Sata’s promises are scaring! Does the Party have a manifesto or its deposited in Sata’s head and mouth? PF cadres, please answer, what is yor manifesto? I listened to your party leaders the other day on znbc, MMD had Kunda and UPND Mwiimbu and your PF Mumbi and vice bale babaika fye ati PF Manifesto not adopted by party, so how do you plan to rule us? Someone PF please answer. VIVA RB…

  11. Just when we thought for the very first time we were going to have free and fair elections VJM pops up! Just the thought of VJ resurrecting from his deep slumber sends shivers down my spine………..VJ pliz let the will of the Zambian pipo prevail this time around!

  15. #12, GENEVA, you asked “WHAT TRIBE IS VJ. ALL YOU BLOGGERS WHO SAY TONGAs ARE TRIBALISTS ANSWER ME” and I respond:

    VJ Mwaanga is very Tonga like me, Maestro Hhehhehhehhe (Mugungulu Hamwaambwa Mwaanga).

    We come from Chief Mapanza in Choma District. I hope this is good enough.

    Enjoy your day you all Zambians.

  16. Yet again I need funding for my hearing so that I get better deals in dealing with mx what's the market price? That's why I have plan b " to rig big time" how do u like me now..

  18. VJ spare us the headache lest we get an ear infection from listening too attentively on instructions on how to rig. VJ toks as if we dont know what happens. His working in CIA does not give him monopoly over inteligence. Who says the KGB, MOSAD, M 16, Gandame, and all of them are only for VJ. Who says all those in The OP are for GRZ and not giving out information. So VJ just shut up. Even James Bond has been transformed several times. Sean Cornery who you started with can not sprint any more becoz of age. So I guess you have become rusty and a liability to the inteligence moovement.

  19. I’m happy VJ’s health is so bad that he has even become resistant 2 ARV’s. He is so useless that he can’t even run a marriage… he has had high level jobs but 2 tell u the truth because i personally know him and do visit his home he literally has nothing no wealth at all. Zambia will be at peace after he dies soon and i mean soon. VITA SATA

  20. Interesting events unfolding..& all the campaign promises..accusations & all…N’way let’s c wat happens on thursday & hope 2 have a peaceful transition & let’s all accept the outcome…May the best man win…

  21. I will accept and have already accepted the outcome of the Presidential elections to be held on 30th October, 2008.

  22. Vote rigging is illegal even in dictatorial states but it difficult to prove that rigging hs tken place. Vote rigging is a subset of the univesal set of electoral fraud. To rig is to set conditions that allow only one result to an election. Therefore, vote rigging is not just an event but a process. It starts from way back at the drawing of electoral boundaries and registration of voters as well as selection of candidates up to the declaration of the winner. UNIP rigged the electons that barred Kapwepwe from contesting the presidency. Similarly Chiluba’s MMD rigged the 1996 presidential elections by declaring Kaunda a stateless person. Perhaps 2008 elections will be the fairest since 1968.

  23. Interesting utterances cumin from u Mastero…hehehe…diversity is nice..they say Variety is the Spice Of Life..heheheGud 2 hear u have already accepted the outcome..that’s what we want from everyone…I beg 2 differ with u naturally as I”M VERY MUCH 4 THE BOAT..WE EXPECT 2 LAND ON THE 30th..hahaha..VOTE PABWATO!!!VOTE WISELY..VOTE SATA!!

  24. “Unless a social contract to increase workers salaries is signed by all four presidential candidates, Bauleni compound residents in Lusaka would be wary to vote for anyone in next week’s presidential by election. All four aspiring presidential Candidates must sign the social contract on the constitution making process if they have to get any votes in Bauleni compound. Attending a citizens’ forum seminar, the residents say the two issues are not strange to the presidential candidates…He adds that these presidential candidates must append their signatures to the social contract agreement so …” Source: http://www.muvitv.com / news / pnew s213 . ht ml

  25. KELVIN FUBE BWALYA should not be belived at all. The man does not know the difference from the truth or lie. He lies in his sleep, he lies when he talks, he is an experct and does not know the the truth any more. GO MMD WIN… KELVIN F Bwalya lies.Do not believe him, his rich from blood money. SATA please do not trust Kelvin, he will bring you down.. he only likes himself… with his 100 women and children out there. CRINMAL money. KELVIN FUBE BWALYA IS NOT MAN ENOUGH, BECAUSE HE IS NOT HONEST, LEADS HONEST PEOPLE AWAY. YOU DOG.

  26. #24, thanks and take care. i wish you all the best that boat of Sata. I am hoping 2nd November, 2008 will not be the last we shall hear of it. We still need some politicians in the oppositions to keep us in check as government.

  30. #28 It’s very easy to rig elections when you’re in power because you’re virtually in control of all instruments of verification i.e. voting centers, staff, ballot boxes etc. If there is no independent body to double check, what can stop them from manipulating results?

  31. Maybe the reader could take time to score the presidential candidates using the table below.
    Score between 1 and 10, with 10 being the highest and 1 the lowest.

    Criteria Candidates
    Rupiah Banda Godfrey Miyanda Hakainde Hichilema Michael Sata
    1. Respect for human rights.
    2. Commitment to fighting corruption.
    3. Commitment to running an honest and transparent government.
    4. Commitment to honouring promises.

    5. Knowledge of people’s problems.

  32. 6. Knowledge of possible solutions to society’s problems.
    7. Ability to work as an equal member of a team.
    8. Ability to inspire the trust of the local (national) community.
    9. Ability to inspire the trust of the international community.
    10. Ability to listen to and learn from others.
    11. Humility to admit mistakes and ask for forgiveness.

  33. Vernon Johnson Simakulika Maliko Mwaanga has committed more abominations against zambians than those accusing him of his intentions to rig. VJ people have had enough of you. You will be remembered more as a vote rigger than an accomplished diplomat and politician you once were. Unfortunately you have no shame of stealing people’s aspirations. SADC is a useless body few members respect its decisions. Ask Robert Gabriel Matibili Karigamombe Mugabe, he forgets about it in between summits and when he goes to one, he dozes just like RB.

  35. “…winning and losing elections, as long as we remain a multiparty political state, should be a normal occurrence and should never be a matter of life and death as Mbita Chitala, one of Rupiah’s campaign managers had put it; it should never be seen as the end of the world for the losers…seen as such, then people will be tempted to do all sorts of crazy things to retain or win power.If it is time for Rupiah to go, he should go peacefully. And if it is time for Godfrey Miyanda, Hakainde or Michael Sata to come in, they should be allowed to come in peacefully… politicians should come and go, political parties should come and go.” Source: maravi.blogspot.com / 2008 / 10 / rigging . ht ml

  38. Maliko mwanga please as you said retiring from politics was the best.zambians are mature & civilised now.Advise to politicians dont only talk wat will happen wen u win also think of wat u shall do wen u lose.Zambian which constitution are we going to follow fifty plus one or just a slight win where entire province no representatives.Anyone to answer me???

  39. V j. This time around i wud sapot riging mwandi. Do it2 save us from the impending doom if this fisherman won. Kamu chita rig mudala hw i wish hh cud just giv all his votes to mmd. If this fisherman won, mugabe wud look like a todler ruthleswise

  41. VJ & your well wishers!
    – you are a womaniser
    – why are you so activy in politics now,
    – there is no smoke without fire
    – evidence is that you were seen campaigning with RB.
    – you leave on politics .
    cum on prove me wrong!!!!!

  42. There is a proverb that tells us to pay attention to the message not the messenger. If a person that you hate warns you to avoid a path where there is a vicious cobra, do you take heed or do you proceed to your death?

  45. Wow, most of you guys are just driven by hate for this old man that you can’t even listen and reason… I also don’t want MMD to win this elections but I think this Mwaanga is talking sense here.

  47. #39, These kaponyas have nothing to lose if zed was taken backwards. They are simply practising the bemba proverb “Tukafilila munsenga”.
    Levy (MHSRIEP) left a will because he knew that he was a mortal. He wanted to groom a leader for 2011 but this was not to be. But being the visionary that he was, Levy left us a VP to guide the nation in his absence until 2011. Fellow citizens this election should only be a transition and a stabilisation period while we gather ourselves from the tragedy. The three years will allow us to scrutinise the candidates for 2011 more thoroghly. Sata is in a hurry because this is his only chance to get what he has always wanted, plot 1 even for 90 days.

  48. Continued from 47: As for HH, we have heard you young man. But wait for 2011. You are only 44(?) and you should not be desperate or impatient for your turn. Jakaya Kikwete of tanzania wanted the presidency earlier but he listened to similar advice from the elders. He was then groomed for the position through diplomatic postings and foreign minister before he was adopted for plot 1. I am not suggesting that you join MMD to be groomed, but you can groom yourself or be groomed in many ways. For now let us allow RB to go during this stabilisation period, but certainly not that dunderhead who thinks he can build a road through a flood plain during the rainy season in 90 days.

  50. If it calls for MMD to rig elections so as to avoid Sata coming into power and convert Zambia into another Zimbabwe, they are very welcome. It is better the elections are rigged to avoid the conutry get into situations such as those Zimbabwe is in just because of tribalism. I want to warn tribal bembas that shonas in Zimbabwe are suffering despite Mugabe being shona. Sata is even worse than Mugabe. Save Zambia by voting for HH. He is the only candidate that has signed the social contract commiting himsel to deliver his promises. Should HH get to plot 1, civil servants will be getting a minimum of K3.5M if not HH will be held accountable and he has accepted those conditions. Please VOTE HH

  51. I think we have now pumped enough sense into these dunderheads to do something sensible on 30 October. It’s just that they are used to bwata bwata, but I am sure they will sleep over it and come to the side of sense in good time.

  52. Ba #41 ubututu politics is a career in Zambia you didnt know? even Sata leaves on politics hiz been one from a long time ago. Is it a seen to live on politics?

  54. Mwaanga, if you think we are docile, dare this time to rig elections, we will teach you a good lesson.
    You robbed Mazoka of victory in 2001
    You robbed Sata of victory in 2006

    This time Sata is winning, no matter what.
    So Mwaanga, watch out. Tukakuponona

  55. Mulekeni VJ naimwe let him enjoy being zambian. If u pipo are dull such that u ‘ll be bwakamene while VJ is rigging nishi lwenu. How can one VJ rig da election? U just hate his CV.

  56. Cili shani ba senseless sensible namukolwa? Nangu libange? You are not the fountain of wisdom just end up to the point of making your contribution. You cany change our minds ni pa bwato fye!

  58. Sata walya makomona ku choma . He found a firm foundation 4 HH here . I hope he ‘ll not safa from mutima

  59. it’s people like VJ who give our politics a bad name. How many times is he going to make a come back. We need fresh blood, he presence is not good for zed. When are we ever going to have politicians who retire willingly and never come back. This is a disgrace, how are we ever going to move forward. We need a new strategy on the political scene it’s inevitable at this point in time. Sata and Rupiah are not moving us forward at all, we are going backwards.

  61. Can see sum folz advocatin 4 mmd to rig elections?and tht tels me ur nt normal.u cnt wish 4 such js coz u hate sata.wat ur actualy advocating 4 is tht any1 cn disregard ur democratic wish by manipulating results..and hu tod u tht satd wil be mugabe,are u able to c th future?lets be serious wth wat we say pipo and nt advocatin 4 riggin wich is a crime.

  62. Phobia bane! how can one man be so intelligent than the whole country? How can he rig with all our eyeys open? i think its not possible to rig coz all votes are counted at the polling station and announced before being sent to Lusaka or the central place. Just buy your party monitors enough food to ensure they do not go to sleep in the midst of counting and accuse others of rigging. It happened in 2006.

  64. Whatsoever people will say.You can argue,fight,insult,swear,cry,laugh,point fingers of tribalism.But the fact will stand,A NEW LEADER WILL BE BORN,come 30 oct.After elections,that is when you will see the true characteristics of these politicians.I repeat,who thought Teta & Ruphia would be MMD,that Lubinda would be PF,that UNIP would support MMD.Welcome to politics,be ready to face the realities of politics.By the way dont you wonder where Mwanangiti is?These politicians who are attacking each other will be dinning together in a few months time,take it from me,history has it.Dont get excited yet!Just wait because better excitment is in the making after the elections….

  65. #62 i agree with you.These chaps should provide evidence that indicates how V.J is going to rig the upcoming formality elections,’formality’ in the sense that its still MMD,S mandate until 2011 thats why the majority zambians who do not read the post are determined to vote for R.B.Those of us who read the post have also analysed that the paper is not objective and actually we shall vote the other way so as to teach Membe ‘wife grabber’ that is not everything…

  66. I don’t think it’s so much about Vj rigging, it’s in Zambians hands to decide which way we go. We have to power to vote for the next presido, this business of rigging as state by some of u needs to be proved. The mazokas and sata s lost simply because we have 2 large oppositions. Once we have 1 large opposition and a smaller opposition then only can the individual vote be taken serious by the opposition. Lets move forward

  67. It is surprising that VJ has buried his head in the sand forgetting all the lies that he manufactured when he went to DRC and his subsequent dismissal by Levy on issues he uttered but denied while in DRC. Imagine if The Post didn’t have hard evidence on him, he would have gone continued with his disgusting political rhetoric. What can make Zambians trust the electoral process this time around when ECZ has gone to the “dogs”? The likes of VJ have resurfaced going to South Africa during the printing of ballot papers? Enough VJ don’t take Zambians for granted, PF or UPND will do some inventory for US to look at the plunder RB has inflicted since the demise of Levy.

  68. Statements that Zambians are taking elections for a joke are neither fair nor true. What should be bone in mind are the two levels of perception. The elite are concerned about the economy and the need to change. Listening to a conversation among regular people, issues of tribe, health status of candidates, fertilizer, lubuli (bullying) unfortunately occupy the highest priority. For example, people are not buying stories of salary increase, tarring of the roads, inflation, impending global recession etc. What their key issues produce is a forecast of better PF in the north, better MMD performance in rural areas in general, better UPND performance in central province and poorer PF performanc

  71. Three of the four presidential hopefuls have refused to sign a social contract being spearheaded by the Citizens Forum, a local NGO. Only UPND candidate Hakainde Hichilema has indicated that he will append his signature.

    Acting president Rupiah Banda has described the social contract as illegal. Heritage Party candidate Brigadier General Miyanda has said the contract is tantamount to blackmail.

    PF leader Michael Sata also has rejected the idea saying he can’t be part of the contract whose formulation he was not part of.

  72. Speaking through his agent Ben Tentamashimba, acting president and MMD candidate Rupiah Banda says the electoral commission of Zambia has told him that the action is in contravention of the electoral code of conduct.

    But the UPND says it sees nothing wrong with the idea of signing the contract as the party intends to deliver all its campaign promises.

    The concept of social contracts as advocated by some the Citizens Forum is meant to be an effective mechanism for holding politicians accountable.

  73. It is espoused as a mutual agreement between the elected and the electorate that they will deliver on their promises based on the policies outlined in their manifestoes.

    This effectively entails that the aspiring candidates enter into physical contracts with the electorate specifically acknowledging the existence of an outlined set of development challenges and their pledge to address them.

    ————————-
    Comment: All you PF cadres, can you please justify why Sata has not signed the contract. If he says he can deliver within 90 days, why has he refused to sign the contract. Please VJ, if it means rigging, this time around I fully support you. We must keep Sata out of State House. Africa does not need another Zimbabwe.

  75. Provide evidence of intention to rig?

    Very simple, your track record of rigging in the past!

    You in particular are an opportunist and want to write in your memoirs how you managed to worm your way into the close circles of the first, second and third presidents of Zambia. Your time is now up. Insansa kuchinjana!

  76. That is yo only defense, produce evidence. What more evidence do we need when u yourself is enough evidence of corruption,crookedness and all sorts of evil politics. Which president in the history of Zambia has not worked with you and found you wanting. You have no shame, go and rest, you are expired.

  78. (Onus of proband) in law it means that He who alleges must prove beyond reasonable doubt. I have read from comment # 1 to the last there is no one with satisfactory proof that VJ plans to rig or rigged the election. Therefore, VJ is clean of rigging period.Viva VJ Viva RB.

  79. im told that some prohet from Nigeria dream that in one country in Africa if people vote for a wrong person there will be a civil wall….

    in explaining the prophecy its like if people vote for either SATA or RB there will be a a civil war.

    come on peace loving Zambian… vote HH and keep the PEACE

    on the HAND vote HH for PRESIDO

  80. BA VJ MWAANGA,MA POLITICS YALEMA NAIMWEE MWAMENE VIAMBAA VINALEMELA NAIMWEE.MWASILA MWAKOOTA MWASALA CHABE NA CHIMPUNO.NI PABWATO CHABE.

  83. Ba vj mulibe nzelu,ndimwe bo pusa monga nshonkonono yamene inkala pa mitundo.YOU ARE A FINISHED MATERIAL,YOU HAD YOUR CHANCE BEFORE!!YOU GAT TO SHUT UP AND SHAME UPON YOU..

  84. Ohhhhh VJ, how you have fallen, fallen from the highiest hight. You can mock men but not God almighty. One day you will come before your maker and you will have to answer these questions: did you practice justice? The chance to freedom you robbed the zambians will cry before God and you will never escape VJ.

  85. Mazoka’s spirit will haunt you forever. You accelerated his demise and robbed your brother the glory to the presidency, hhhhhhhhhhmmmm and now today you come out shamelessly to challenge the opposition to provide evidence, okay wait, we the people are watching this time. If at all the people in the villages are going to be cheated, it will spell doom for you

  86. RB has misfired by bringing pipo whom Levy sidelined because of Corruption as his campaign agents for him and he has further sidelined Levy’s people more especially those who campaigned for The finance minister Magande who challenged him for MMD candidature.
    Kuyabebele this time ni pabwatooo.

  87. #78, the same law that protects the guilty and incacerates the innocent will visit you. We can no longer hide in the law which has been seen to work one sided. Imagine, suddenly the presidential entourage has become so big and helicopters and ground transportation has swelled. You call that a priviledge or day light robbery? I bet these guys have spent real big and come 30th, they will start burning files to hide incriminating information.

  88. Sata introduced rigging to Zed politics. 1991 was a free and fair poll, 1996 was not a fair poll because Chiluba and his cohorts wanted to serve their own interests. Chawama went to the opposition when Jeff Cherise Samukonga from FDD went thru. The panga theory came in because Sata and OP had stuffed boxes and wanted to swap these with what was already in the polling booths. When the locals sensed danger , they raised the alarm and Sata unleashed the pangas so that he can deliver Chawama to Chawama on a platter.

    As long as Regis keeps out his boys and no premarked ballots are exchanged for cash or people dont vote twice then a truly Zambian verdict will emerge.

  89. bamudala ba VJ, go and rest..you did in 2001.
    we are sick n tired of you…. dont let us use tumunkwala on you.
    God himself will punish you……
    twakomba…….let the ryt man rule da country. actually, if i may ask, wat more do you want…. werent u out of our syt??????
    amana mali badala

  91. SATA worked together with VJ. Why up to now has Sata not told us how elections are rigged. VIVA VJ, MAY GOD PROLONG YOUR LIFE YOUNG MAN

  92. OP operatives at the highest level are engaged to manipulate the system. When sata was MMD National Secretary he worked with OP operatives in ensuring that the ballots were stuffed, multiple identities were created so that cadres voted twice.

    What I see happening on 30th October is PF will try and rig the poll by continue to campaign on the voting lines. ECZ needs to watch out for this kaponya behaviour from the hooligan whose life was extended by Levy’s goodwill.

    RB deal with the family when you get to state house. Though Levy tried his best, the relatives went too far by exerting pressure on the first family so that they can get jobs in missions and extort parastatals like at NAPSA

  94. #92, if Sata rigged, how come he lost in 2001 and 2006? Can a sane man who really knows how the game is played just keep quiet even when he knows the game? If Sata really knew how to do it, he would have been in the forefront of ensuring that this machinery is used to his advantage coz he seems to be in a hurry to go to plot 1. Let me have your comments. And for your info, non of the crimes committed by the chiluba govt have been instituted on SATA. Does that ring a bell in your head? If Sata really abused his authority, LPM would have been the first to deal with him so that he get rid of his opponent but not even LPM in his law firm held sata to account.

  96. # 94 Zambian – He has woken up to reality and he has regrouped with OP accomplices hence the rampant searches done ramdomly and the introduction of Anti Rigging. Che – rigging can done from within if for example teachers are the returning officers and these are in your pockets. They will basically post wrong figures to lusaka and you know that only a court case can reverse that.

    Read my earlier post at # 88. Sata is part of the game that rigged Emmannuel Kasonde’s Malole bye election by playing with the system. Are you aware that Mwanawasa’s results in the last election were not real. In Africa Che, the secret police keep leaders in power and you blaming VJ may not help.

  97. SINCE SATA HAD A HAND IN RIGING BEFORE CAN HE TELL THE ZAMBIANS WHAT HE DID? HE IS SO SURE BUT LETS HEAR FROM THE HORSE’S MOUTH? PEOPLE IF HE THINKS HE CAN WIN BY JUST CAMPAINING IN LUSAKA AND COPPERBELT YOU HAVE WON AWE WHAT KIND OF INSESITIVITY IS THAT ONE? 60% OF POPULATION IS IN RURAL AREAS SO GET YOUR ACTS RIGHT. BUT STILL THIS TIME PEOPLE WILL RIG FOR THEY WONT JUST VOTE FOR YOU BECAUSE YOU DONT PROVIDE LEADERSHIP THEY WANT. YOU CAN LEAD THE KAPONYAS THATS THE TYPE OF PEOPLE YOU WANT TO LEAD. WE WILL RESPECT YOUR DECISION

  99. # 97 you are one of the most backward advisors, who told you Sata is just campaigning only on the copperbelt and lusaka provinces?Taubelenga news from other sources like post, daily mail and times of zambia? Tell me is Sata rigged elections for Chiluba how can he be so daft like you to have forgotten the formula he used? Some of you chaps are the ones who are tarnishing the zedian legacy by debating or blogging from your sitting flesh rather than the upper chambers in your small heads.

  100. #97,unless you say the whole CB and Lusaka provinces are full of kaponyas, we chipumbu we, you are blogging for the sake of blogging while your so call comments carry less than an iota or pinch or quart of water.
    Kambwanga iwe, try to see how POLITICAL HISTORY is made. When Chiluba was being prepared to come into power, who were in the forefront, the same people u are calling kaponyas, if this is so, then the person u are working for or supporting is the chief kaponya, coz kaponyas like selling sugar and cooking oil like some MPHUNO somewhere.

  101. #96, i was there before you even go to Emmanuel, why did he lose and ultimately got dropped from finance min? Much as i very much know Sata and visited him when he was min without port and when he was MMD SG, this person was just used as a catalyst while the higher ranks in the OP, ZP ZAF and FTJ’s core group of which SATA was not privy, got on the ground. Just look at the court cases and you will realise why the LAW has not visited him up to now. What happened in Chawama and Mulungushi was heaped on Sata but ask Gen Tembo, Nawakwi, Richard Sakala, and Ben Mwila. These guys will tell you a nasty story. Can Sata be so daft and dull to have shelved the strategy in 2001 and 2006? Zedian come on

  102. Fellow Zambians, today is 27th October 2008. 3 days before voting. By now we surely should know who our next president will be. Without insulting me or much ado, tell me, what are the opinion polls saying? who is leading the race? who will be our next president?

  103. #88, there was no rigging in 1996, Kaunda was barred and the late Dean who was not popular actually date stamped those elections as legitimate. If you follow Zedian politics you wont even go to 1991. Just as the elections in the Kaunda era were mere announcements and census type where the leader wanted to know his popularity. Kaunda’s popularity sunk in 1967 and when 1972 came, he had lost ties with the Israelists and automatically he fell off the US support for your information, the noise we started making in the mid 80’s were just the final blow to his 27 year rule. This is how history repeats itself,the wheel of change continues to spin and only those who are not ready will be left behind

  104. vj please leave us alone just go and rest
    this time ni pabwatooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

  105. ITS TWO [2] DAYS BEFORE THE ELECTIONS AND EVERY ZAMBIAN SHOUD EXERCISE HIS/HER RIGHT TO VOTE.YOUR VOTE WILL BRING PROSPERITY OR DOOM TO ZAMBIA. VOTE WISELY.

  108. # 103 . For your info I am an insider when I say 1996 was rigged. Dean was the HH of that time, FTJ had started losing favour. His only ammo was to bar KK , and barring someone is tantamount to impacting on the impact of the polls.

    Since your hero name is Che, let me give some food for thought, Bush rigged the florida vote, the british used civil servants to rig elections in nigeria before it got independence. Mossad does it for self preservation. So Sata as a former constable who tasted prison for stealing suspects funds can take a shot at enhancing illegality. Even mwanawasa was not clean. I hear he owns Konkola and Luanshya mines. More from Langley Virginia (CIA Hq)

  109. VJ our election nightmare. Mwanawasa fired him after the 2001 elections. Just before the 2006 elections VJ appeared. Now we have him again…. Awe chapwa ba Rupiah ba wina.

  113. Sata is destined for a big shock, RB waste still, but the young man HH for sure will pull a suprise. He will carry the day.

    Viva HH, muchikasaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

  114. If Sata wins and god forbid he dies in office in the next 12 months coz of stress, are we going to have elections again ?

  116. Am back from Vaccation, I can see that Pf is still strong force to reckon with…. VIVA SATA!!!

    VJ we are watching you!!!

    PABWAAAAAAAAAAAATOOOOOOOOOOOOOO>>>>>>>>>

    MWAMMMMMMMMMUKKKKKKKKOOOOOOOOOLOOOOOOOO>>>>>

  118. VJ,YOU ARE SHOWING US HOW BAD YOUR OLD ENDING WILL SOON BE.
    GIVE CHANCE TO US. WE CAN ALSO BE BETTER MINISTERS,INFACT GOOD LEADERS THAN YOU.
    GO BACK TO YOUR VILLAGE BEFORE ARE TOTALLY FINISHED.

    RB ALSO DOES NOT THINK GOOD,HE HAS CALLED ALL HTOSE PIPO THAT LEVY FIRED.WHAT A LEADERSHIP?
    YOU ARE SURLY LOSING.

  119. Mbuzi my friend use your head for something sensible my friend….

    The BOAT on its way to Plot 1,

    VOTE FOR SATA AND VOTE FOR PF AND VOTE PABWATO!!!!!

  120. lESSON 1 BY SATA, VJ & FTJ

    just vote for RB

    HAHAHAHA SATA has failed again….the boat capsized and was devoured by crocodiles. HH try 2011

    RB for HE

  121. BA VJ TWALIMISIBA EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE WITH YOU,I’M SURE YOU HAVE ALREADY STARTED PREPARING THE RIGGING…NOMBA THIS TIME AROUND YOU WON’T PULL THRU…………..VIVA PF

  123. MMD has just created its own problems, RB is not a competitive candidate and I am sure most of us wouuld have voted for MMD if Mangande was a front runner.There experiments will cost them

  124. Ba VJ can`t there be elections in Zed without your involvement. please twakana.the public moneies you have eaten are enough give others also.What kind of greedy is that?

  126. Sata cant be a president. All those who matter in Zed including the entire Police, Army and more important the Shushu’s have to make sure that VJ does his work nicely and deliver Plot 1 to RB

    Imagine a country with SATAna as HE….

    should never and will never happen. Zambia is not Mpika! Zed is much lager than these Bemba sycophants….Better Sata does what he konws best smoke dagga and womanise…..

    RB will be HE like it or not…

  127. vj must be burned to ashes!! How can his treatment in SA coincide with the period of printing ballot papers in the same country? Was he just sick between September and October 2008? How come all of a sudden the same sick donkey has found strength to accompany the LOST RB on his visits to chiefs? We know you vj and this time we will lynch you. You used to deny that you were involved in Mandrax until you were brought to book.KK why are you quiet about these vultures and busy attacking Sata simply because his performance in Govt. was a threat to your popularity? Change is HERE for Sata and PF in just two days. I still reiterate my prediction of 49% Sata, PF; 27% RB, MMD and 24% HH, UPND. BWATO

  128. What exactly has this VJ accomplished that everyone is so scared about him.Who is this guy anyway.

    If he is a master rigger,who caught him in the very act of polls adultery.

    Personally i dont think this VJ guy has been four steps more clever than the 12 million zambians.Is he a star that he cant be caught,let someone catch him not just blabing

  130. Freedom is not merely the opportunity to do as one pleases; neither is it merely the opportunity to choose between set alternatives. Freedom is, first of all, the chance to formulate the available choices, to argue over them — and then, the opportunity to choose…therefore, choose your leader Micheal Chilufya Sata and be freed from economic oppression…

    PABWAAAATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO>>>>>>>>>

  131. Why was VJ discharged before 30 Oct? He should have stayed in hospital so that we have electoral peace before and during the polling day. The older people grow the wiser they become, in VJ this has proved to be the very opposite.

  133. VJ, I feel so sad to see you still trying to cheat Zambians even when your health has failed you. For me, you are a baaaad man who has contributed to bad vices in this country. You have rigged, done drugs and married several times. You are not even an inspiration to young people.DO YOU EVER ASK YOURSELF WHAT WOULD HAPPEN WHEN U DIE…..WE R GOING TO CELEBRATE!!!! Please its time you repented. And stop torturing yourself, go to bed and rest you are sick…… For once, dont rig!!!!!

  134. maestro Hhehhe

    i like your loyalty to UPND but i guess you don’t know the real situation on the ground but all the same you stick to what you believe in that’s wonderful

  135. Catch this VJ guy, dont just blab.You mean we dont have guyz in opposition parties who can act as Intelligence officers.

  137. I cant wait for a toss vancouver after the expected vvictory of king cobra. One good thing about him is that he can insulate the state agaist cheap opposition of development unlike other learders

  138. LUAPULA FISH I AGREE WITH YOU MMD MADE A MISTAKE RB IS NOT ZAMBIAS PREFERED CANDIDATE THIS WILL RESULT IN VOTING FOR A WRONG OPPOSITION LEAVING OUT THE MAN OF INTEGRITY GEN. MIYANDA I WAS GOING TO VOTE FOR MMD IF MAGADE OR NEVERS STOOD BUT CANT GIVE SATA MY VOTE EVEN IF HE STOOD WITH FROG I WOULD LATHER VOTE FOR A FROG. AS FOR VJ RIGGING WILL BE ACCEPTABLE IF IT WILL BE FOR THE HP TO COME IN NOT FOR RB THE MAN DOES NOT DESERVE TO LEAD US

  139. sata worked so closely with vj.my question nw is did’nt sata observe what his friend was doing when rigging 4 chiluba?surely he can use this to his advantage nw.why is sata so much scared to talk about vj openly.is it that vj knows a lot about sata or they are both crooks

  140. DR bILL ,i also agree with you that if they fielded Miyanda or Nevers ,I was going to vote for MMD. The way the situation is ,it is more dengerious to put your card on RB because we literally know very little about this man and is not articulate about the his economic Plans for the nation, is quiet differnt from HH who can put a piece and you spent your quality time analysing that.

  142. #108:Zambian at Heart, please bring more data. thats interesting to hear.

    Now pipo, has anyone heard the prophet who had prophesed LPM’s death?…i am told he says he is seeing blood shed in Zed. if they is anyone please give more data on this……..

  143. Awe VJ na bandage sure just for the sake of a job. Mudala ole ebwelamo ata. Tusha. Pabwatooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

  144. My will shall shape the future. Whether I fail or succeed shall be no man’s doing but my own. I am the force; I can clear any obstacle before me or I can be lost in the maze. My choice; my responsibility; win or lose, only I hold the key to my destiny.

    Do not avoid voting in this weeks crucial presidential elections… Especially that you know who your next leader is vote for sata!!!

    VOTE PABWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO>>>>>

  148. #143…my concern has always been is the way God wants it to be for Zambia?! The Prophet is TB Joshua but I am not really a keen follower of his works,can any one educate me on his workings and deeds, especially the prophetic work…and why is God not speaking through our Spiritual leaders?!

  149. Man of Action – What kind of action ? The man was worthy K 4b in 2006 engages in action,which results in him being worthy K 3bn(based on 2008 declaration).Another is worthy K 24bn ,engages in action and is now worthy K 40bn.The question is who is a man of action ?If you insist on the usage of word action ,then we need to qualify it.Sata man of action but HH MAN OF VALUE ADDING ACTION.
    Let’s think again

  151. If Dollah is going to fetch K10,000.00 in the next 3 months then its SATA’s fault.How can you have PF threaten investors, does this guy read stories by his post image builders about the cause of Kwacha depreciation.

    I dont like his 30 days ultimatum to SUN Int Hotel, he has now seen that his more money in yo pocket slogan is failing now he wants to divert attention to SUN Hotel and other investors.

    Its our fault intellectuals,we have allowed Ba Kaponya to shape these elections,these guys know nothing about economy magt.I can safely predict Zimbabwe situation here in our land, for me if PF wins am going on a self imposed exile,I will not be their when you suffer.

  153. VJ is a king maker and he is doing yet again!!!!! To unseat a ruling party in Africa you need a revolution like the one of 1991 with only one strong opposition leader. Both Sata and HH are selfish and they will swallow this bitter pill. We told them to unite but opted to go their way, once again MMD is winning with a small majority.

  154. #151, have your facts right, which investors did Sata threaten? Oh you mean the labourers from China? If you have access to the BBC, hear Sata telling the BBC reporter. Sata said his stance on the Chinese has not changed. He wants real investors not chinese labourers. Where are our own casual workers going to go if simple work like digging trenches is given to the chinese cheap labor force?
    China invests in the US but you will never see casual workers taking up jobs which americans can do.

  155. Instead of advertising our manifesto to the electrocate through MUVI TV, we are busy making Sata popular, but baMMD yashani? Let’s advertise our manifesto pliz. We have only 2 days to go. Leave Sata alone. Why not attack HH? HH is not a threat ka?
    VIVA SATA, VIVA PABWATO!!!!

  157. We can learn from history how past generations thought and acted, how they responded to the demands of their time and how they solved their problems. We can learn by analogy, not by example, for our circumstances will always be different than theirs were. The main thing history can teach us is that human actions have consequences and that certain choices, once made, cannot be undone. They foreclose the possibility of making other choices and thus they determine future events….The impostor Spectator learn these facts and you should school your leader….

    I can unload further, but in a middle of something, i am doing a research on TB Joshua….

  158. Nothing under the sun will change our minds. No amount of intimidation will tilt our thinking. We have already made up our minds to vote Pabwato come 30th October 2008. Twachula pafula. Let’s try another leadership. If they don’t perform, we shall vote in another goverment. The power is our hands. In the meantime, ni pabwato fela, mwamukolo fela.

  159. Bembas should be ashamed of themselves, Look at clowds in Southern and Western provinces.They were bigger than those he held in Northern and Luapula his home ground.

    Now where is the tribalism.

  160. Like it or not,SATA can point at his success in all the ministerial positions he worked .I challenge RB to pointat his achievements .

  162. THOSE OF US WHO CAN PRAY AND FAST, THIS IS THE TIME,CHRISTIANS ,WE GAT TO BE ON OUR KNEES.TALK ON YOUR KNEES TO GOD.WE REFUSE ANY BLOODSHED,WE CANNOT ALLOW THE ENEMY TO TAKE ANY OF OUR BROS N SISTAZ LIFES DURING THIS COMING ELECTIONS.PRAY FOR PEACEFUL AND GODLY INTERVENTION.IT’S NOT TIME TO GOSSIP, FOR THOSE THAT CAN PRAY AND FAST LET THE LORD SPEAK TO YOU TO FAST THIS WEEK FOR ZAMBIA OUR MOTHERLAND.AMEN

  163. Those who have felt the pain, misery, poverty, injustice, anger, and extreme poverty will cast their vote wisely. One good thing is that the above category is the majority (70plus%). Brethen do not dispair. We shall meet on 30 October, in two days time to be precise.

  165. gentlemen things are tough now. a Vote on HH is a Vote on the PF leader. a Vote on sata in more money in your pocket, no tax, no medical fees. that can only happen in Zimbabwe thats where you can have a lot of money and buy nothing. come 30th say No to another mugabe by voting RB. if you love zambia please dont split the vote by voting HH, just go strait on MMD, we want Magande to continue, we want Mutati to continue, we need Pande and we need Masebo at the councils. fundanga must also continue.

  166. #163

    You talk like you are from the congo. Do you know what extreme poverty is? You seem to be jealous of other peoples well being and you suppose sata’s coming into power will give you that kick. Too bad sata wont make it again. Just work hard and God will bless the efforts of your labour.

  170. That’s my preferred candidate and I believe you have yours. So just concentrate on campaigning for your candidate. VIVA Pabwato
    Pabwatoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

  171. #167 Ichombo

    Dont try to say that Zambians are in extreme poverty. Laziness and total dependance syndrome is what brings poverty. No one given an opportunity to perform will blame another when he or she has failed. The dependence syndrom I am talking about is the type that uplifts a human being to a level of a saviour. Sata is your saviour. That is principaly wrong. No wonder their is abject poverty inspite of plenty. The foreign investor is seen as an enemy because he seems to be suceeding in the midst of poverty. If you dont work hard, you will remain poor. Sata cant and will not perform your miracles.

  172. THOSE OF US WHO CAN PRAY AND FAST, THIS IS THE TIME,CHRISTIANS ,WE GAT TO BE ON OUR KNEES.TALK ON YOUR KNEES TO GOD.WE REFUSE ANY BLOODSHED,WE CANNOT ALLOW THE ENEMY TO TAKE ANY OF OUR BROS N SISTAZ LIFES DURING THIS COMING ELECTIONS.PRAY FOR PEACEFUL AND GODLY INTERVENTION.IT’S NOT TIME TO GOSSIP, FOR THOSE THAT CAN PRAY AND FAST LET THE LORD SPEAK TO YOU TO FAST THIS WEEK FOR ZAMBIA OUR MOTHERLAND.AMEN

  174. PF cadres! Stop your rhetoric and get down to serious thinking. Your SATA has been the greatest joke of the year.To tell you the truth, i can even surport rigging if it is there just for the sake of saving our country from this SENSELESS BUNCH of KAPONYA’S who just want to die in state house but with nothing to offer us.Already investors are dead scared coz of the propaganda by the POST & FRED. How do you expect these dull heads to rule as with no MANIFESTO & PROGRAMMES? Wake up you cadres in the SINKING TITANIC.We don’t want to move 30yrs backwards. GO RB.

  175. Certain people from certain tribe do not want to work, they want quick money, max in 90 days. It is not in their blood to toil and wait for the fruits. Even the money the intend to acquire at the speed of light, they do not wants to share. Just look in the near past and you know what I am talking about. So well meaning Zambians, let them not intimidate you by loud shouts, the elections will be based on 2006 register and thats all that counts.

  177. #172

    As someone said else where and I join him to say that if Sata becomes President of Zambia this will be a sign of Gods displeasure or Judgement on Zambia. Zimbabweans thought Mugabe was their saviour and instead of repenting they lifted him higher. Look where the Zimbabweans are. Zambians are grambling for manna. ‘My people perish for lack of wisdom’. When the bells ring in thier heads, it will be too late.

  179. 171 KSO
    Mind your ignorance. I have a good job and I have 3 meals a day and I owe my blessings to God. My supporting Sata has got nothing to do with trying to uplift my living standards. I’m doing it for those who are less priviledged than me.

    Have a nice day and nice blogging.

    Pabwatooooo!!!

  181. The Roots of Violence:
    Wealth without work,
    Pleasure without conscience,
    Knowledge without character,
    Commerce without morality,
    Science without humanity,
    Worship without sacrifice,
    Politics without principles.

    We are saying no to Violence and we are going to Vote for SATA!!!!!PABWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO>>>>>

  182. If MMD wins i will give the first blogger my Laptop worth 7million and ZAIN USB internet connector free. watch this space,

  183. #109 Mwana wisakamana Chi VJ chile bomfyafye psychology tapali ifyo chili. RB chilemulila ndalama akachita naregret.God is with the Zambians once again. Unip had 3 more years to in 1991 and now MMD “had” 3 years to go-coincedence? No this is the cycle got has give to Zambia KK 27 years MMD 17 years. Will it be 7 years for the next party?

  184. Shame on u stuggies surrounding the great thief ,if u ar really sane in yo heads ,y do u think chiluba chose Levy who stopped active politics t come lead u at yo expense?. He knew u were fooools.RB will do the same thing again by bringing

  185. inga chi bandage icho ba VJ, atase, sorry sight. what are you trying to show us the children of today. vima signs veka veka.
    Abash bakabolala.

  186. Ba VJ that bandage you have on the back of the head will be permanently on your face should you and your clonies try to rig these elections……

  187. Patriotic Front, whose leaders have strong reputations for “getting the job done” and a strong commitment to modernisation of Zambia in all important political and economic respects, is committed to
    • the separation of powers (and specifically to the introduction of a Government effectively headed by a Prime Minister along British lines)
    • free market principles in economic management
    • tax and interest rate reductions to spur economic growth
    • reduced Government spending, particularly at the political level
    • rooting out corruption, torture and other violations of Zambian citizens’ and other human beings rights
    • strengthening the health and education policy to improve fallen standards
    • ad

  188. Luapula and Luapula provinces are very rich in terms of fertile lands and rains are almost guaranteed season after season. But the people there dont want to work, there is hardly any serious subsistence farming to be seen across vast territories of these regions. What is seen however is the highest number of rural emmigration to towns and cities from these Provinces. This charge cant be disputed by anyone and this should be taken as an indictment rather than a campaign gimmick.

  195. Heard Sata is leading the opinion poll. What a sad day for Zambia if he carries the day on the 30th.
    He’s made it loud and clear that he is not interested in us going to the polls in 2009 if he wins
    thursday’s poll, is that the kind of leader you want? He’s promised 2 international airports in
    northwestern province, oil pipeline & refinary, schools and healthcare facilities every 10KMs throughout
    Zambia, roads, powerstations in every province, more money in people’s pockets and lower taxes
    amongst other things, all which is good but let’s be reallistic… Sata has 3 years to lay the groundwork for these projects. His
    fantasies will cost billions of dollars, where will he get that

  196. SATA IS WINNING WITH WIDE MARGINE ON 30TH. THIS IS A PAINFUL TRUTH TO MMD. SATA WILL BE THE FIRST, SECONDED BY HAKAINDE AND RUPIA BANDA WILL BE THE THIRD WHILE MIYANDA THE LAST.

    IN NORTHEN PROVINCE SATA WILL WIN WITH MORE THAN 80%, IN LUAPULA MORE THAN 70%, IN COPPERBELT MORE THAN 75%, LUSAKA MORE THAN 65%, CENTRAL MORE THAN 50%, NORTH WESTERN AND WESTERN MORE THAN 40%, SOUTHERN MORE THAN 40% AND EASTERN LESS THAN 20%.

    THANK GOD THAT MMD IS NOW PACKING FOREVER BECAUSE JUST AFTER LOSING THE PARTY WILL BE DISTORTED. DONT TAKE PEOPLE FOR GRANTED.

  197. FELLOW ZAMBIANS I IMPLORE YOU NOT TO SHUN VOTING BUT CHOOSE A LEADER WHO WILL FOSTER DEVELOPMENT OF THIS RICH BUT POOR COUNTRY

  198. It appears that the feeling of change is a very strong human feeling. It comes with devastating side effects which include suppression of reasoning and analysis. The unemployed youths want SATA because he has promissed them jobs and more money in their pockets. Serious indeed! Well, money needs to created before it gets into pockets. A man who would disturb investment will never manage to put enough in anyone’s pocket. Of caurse yes, it can be possible due to inflation such as we have in Zimbabwe; Zimbabeans have so much money in their pockets that even their pockets cant hold. So now they are using wheelbarrows and vans to carry money, which cant buy any reasonable item.

  199. 84 u are right GOD cannot be mocked vj our days on earht are numbered GOD is talking to you right now thats the evidence is that operation take heed

  200. VJ please save us from this fisherman. if he wins , mugabe will look like an infant, cruel-wise, amutugwashe mudala , i know uken do it.

  201. Shame on u stuggies surrounding the great thief ,if u ar really sane in yo heads ,y do u think chiluba chose Levy who stopped active politics to come and lead u at yo expense?. He knew u were fooools.RB will do the same thing again by bringing TILYENJI.

  202. The human mind is very complicated yet very easy to decieve due to underutilisation by humans. This and the 2006 elections have shown that even professionals who are genearally perceived to have capacity to reason lamentably fail to escape deception. There are some politicians who are so canning that doctors, professors, economists, accountants, etc fail to survive their lies. The POST had shown in the past that they analyse issues, but now they have stopped. Could it be an act of desparation? Well one can only guess. The POST claimed to know SATA, but they have now totally denied that fact. Whatever agreement with SATA, the POST must prepare itself for a shock from SATA’s volatility.

  203. How does PF intend to govern with one branch of governement (legislature) entirely controlled by the MMD… gizmos out there just don’t understand the turmoil they will throw the country into by voting PF

  204. VJ don’t under zambia sucide commandos, just try to rig the election will come in with full force.Iam watching 24 hrs.

  205. VJ go back to Germany and speak to the cops about that mandrax. Ni
    PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
    BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
    OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  206. If at all SATA won these elections, the most shocked people will be the unemployed youths. Educated professionals will be full of regrets as a result of what the so called ‘Man of Action’ will do. SATA’s role model in the name of Mugabe is a great man of action but not every action is beneficial. Mugabe’s actions have led to Zimbabwe being where it is now. It is one thing to run a ministry where you just receive money from ministry of finance to carry out projects and it is another thing to be at the helm of the economy where your policies and personal conduct have a bearing on the general economy of the country. At the helm you are responsible of raising the money you need to spend.

  207. #188 kso,You are joking , Luapula does not feed the nation but grows enough to feed meet feed the province and does not rely on relief food like the so called productive provinces who depend on cheap government programmes to meet their seasonal requirements.

  208. Zambians should learn to work hard for themselves and inculcate this in all our young people if we are to have any hope of coming out of our economic malaise. Government should concentrate on provinding conducive environment for private economic participation, reasonable public welfare, service deliverly, idustrial and fiscical framework policy formulation. Education should be accessed by the majority of our people. SME’s should be battressed by real policies that will ensure growth of entreprenuership. SME’s growth and participation is is the back bone of any nation’s economic growth.

  209. The adhesive bandages on VJ’s lukobo, are they as a result of ear surgery or what? Maybe he underwent some surgery where they implanted something to coz him think like he is young again. Otherwise, the man looks more sick than Sata.

  210. Thank you zambians in foreign countries making noise about VJ,one thing you need to know is that he(VJ)retired from active politics so why should a retired politician address a political campaign rally in support of his preffered presidential candidate.I thank God because Zambians on the Zambian soil have seen the people surrounding Rejected Banda(RB).It is evident now that Mwamukolo,Ubwato or the Boat is sailing everywhere pa zed.Viva Sata Viva PF.UBWATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

  211. While!i just cant wait for the swearing in of president michael sata,hallo zambia,happy birthday.Nipabwatoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

  212. vj you went to south so that you can rig our elections.God shall panish you and what ever you are doing God is watching you.Rights and complains of the zambian people shall haunty you.No wonder you were implicated in drugs.May death take you soon together with your bandages.I think i will be ready to join sucide commandos so that i can defend mother zambia.

  213. #191 since you have access to internet always check what you doubt or need clarity with google. I checked the search engine google for lol, it means “laughing out loud” abreviation for anything like “ha ha ha” etc

  214. osama bin laden are by any chance connected to my friend osama bin zed? i have not heard from that mind in a long time!!Sony Ericsson Phiri you never cease to amaze me my friend!!!

    Nipabwaaaaaaaaaaaatoooooooooooooooooo chabe!

  215. We been counting days and now it’s only 72 hours before we meet at the valley of decision…then we shall all see who holds the handle and who holds the blade.

  216. KSO, Zambia is not a developmental state, state deriven economy will always be important to give the right direction to our economic development.Growth is neccessary but not everything to foster development,we attained high literacy level than south Korea but did very little to improve the other development indicators. We need a government who will command some relative autonomy and shape the development of the country without interferance.Too much of democracy at this stage will just yield enough insults and corruption.

  219. Big up ba Spectator keep it burning I’m busy today so I can’t mince my words… PABWATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  220. Another remainder…It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

  226. # 205 it’s that kind of stupefaction that threatens to bring this country to its knees..empty calls for change no matter what, should not be entertained by those who genuinely understtand what’s at stake.

  231. SATA is a very tricky person. I believe the reason why he would not want elections in 2011 is that he know he wont fulfil the promises he has made. He is very likely to make things much worse than they are today. If SATA won, most of the roofs of our economy will be ripped off by his whilwind, and that would mean SATA would be very unpopular in 2011, so there is no way he can allow elections to go on. He is already known for not holding elections. You may argue that Zambians will not allow that to happen; well Zambians will only continue to enjoy rights for as long as freedom and democracy are available. Otherwise ask those who have lived under dictatorship they will tell you.

  233. LOL means laugh out loud. Yaba ka VJ ka croock if those plasters are for real he wouldnt be shouting in the sun like that, he just went to rig!

  237. #228 LOL is an abbreviation for “Laughing Out Loud”.
    Those pictures are somehow horrifying. It looks like VJ just escaped from the ICU, “walking dead” with half his head plastered. Someone call the Paramedics, please!
    My prognosis for Thursday may not be quite accurate since I’m not on the ground, but I feel MMD has virtually all of it’s forces trained on PF leaving UPND unguarded. Time for HH to break through?

  239. FINE , Where is the freedom if people are langishing in chronic poverty,should democracy be at the expense of development.NO, almost all the nations who have transformed their economies from agrarian to successfully industrisstion did not democracy. Recent asian miracle of Korea under military leader park and Taiwan is a best example of how state apparatus should be applied to foster development.

  241. As for the four candidates we need to wish each one of them well and pray to God who knows them better to make way for our nation. But for acts of deceipt and falsehood we have the ability to judge and we must understand that things are said and done so that we can make good judgement.

  242. shame on RB, KAUNDA, CHILUBA,NEVERS, NGONDO,NAWAKWI,SAKWIBA AND THE REST WHO BELONGS TO DUST BIN OF POLITICAL HISTORY BECAUSE SATA IS WINNING.

  244. Ba VJ you should known that your reputation grows with every failure…you are a failure mudala….

    VOTE FOR SATA!!!

  246. 239. Luapula Fish,
    I appreciate you views, but I believe that it is better to have social freedom and less of economic freedom than to have both taken away. You are better with one or two out of five items that to have everything taken away. What a person has is normally most appreciated when it is taken away. This is normally how the human mind works. SATA was in power with and an adviseor to Chiluba for 10 years, but the economy he is promissing did not come, yet people are expecting the whole world from him. This is not strange; it’s how the human mind responds to promise. Some people have convinced and married women based on the strength of their lip promiss which they can’t honour.

  247. VJ DO NOT GET WORRIED WITH PEOPLE WHO FEAR FOR UNKNOWN.US WHO ARE MAJORITY RURAL AREAS WILL VOTE RB CUASE HE HAS GIVEN US WHAT WE WANT IS FARMING SEASON.TAXI DRIVERS ARE SUPORTERS FOR SATANA. US VOTERS IS MMD

  250. #114 How on this earth can you wish someone to die. Why can’t you wish your mother or father even your children or any of your relative. Grow up you goat

  253. #243 why exactly do you plead for us to chose this man what really does he have to deliver. get beyond silly and cheap promises

  255. State embeded autonomy should always come first if our country is to move forward.Ladies and gentlemen ,Can someone convince me Y I should vote for RB if they have better reasons than the distinctive work of PF comrade in the Lusaka city and the country over.

  258. attention Zambians. I am looking for a patient answering to the name of VJ. he escaped from my hospital in SA. last seen spoting a bandage at the back of his head

  260. I feel so ashamed with vj why can’t you just rest and concetrate on your health. are you not tired of being talked all the time.REST Pliz, pliz,pliz agaga aisha.

  263. Sata has the propensity to sink Zambia to be another somalia. Ignorant supporters who have taken Zambia’s peace for granted cant see this.

  264. Shameless Job seeker. This chap should be telling us how sustainable drug dealing is and not election stealing! Talk of sending a thief to catch a thief

  265. I pitty VJ everyone in country including my 2 year old daughter knows that VJ is a thief and a master rigger, why can’t he just rest there are free ARVs now so let not be scared if MMD looses.

  268. Imwe bantu SATA’s rallies in South were all artificial & fake!!!I was coming from Monze over the wekend and i couldnt believe what i saw.The majority of those people that attended PF’s rally in Mazabuka were ferried from Kafue & Chawama!!I was shocked.I dont know how much Sata has paid Mmembe & The Post “an independent paper” to ignore all such old kind of tactics.

    The God of Abraham is watching.

    HH remains the best.

  269. Some colleagues went to Eastern Province on duty and came back with White/Blue pens saying RB 4 President. They were also given Chitemge materials although they are not for RB may be this is what someone is saying RB has done a lot. I am looking forward to a time when people will be voting for some one’s good manifesto and not because they have been given Shake shake, chitenge etc.

  270. #259 not omly are the promises empty they are utter falsehoods. Its amazing how gullible people can get. I guess if there messiah gave them cynaide laced kool aid they would all shout coca cola.

  272. is there a way of asking VJ to go and rest with those bandages? he is just irritating everyone even the children in the street know him for being a rigger of elections

  277. #268 That is good observation. You mean you met buses/tracks taking people to the South or you found them at the rally?

  279. Sata is capable of saying anything. He will just talk whatever comes into his heart. Anything goes for him and his supporters are excited to death by his eccentic blabbings.

  280. Those who think HH has SUPPORT in southern province only will be shocked. DO NOT BE deceived by the post pictures.

  281. Can some one please explain just how possible it was for the Kalabo Driver to accidently load Kalabo ballot papers on the kalabo vehicle and not anyother ballot papers? And how possible is it that they were in the drawer of the said table? Objectively speaking, the ECZ is responsible for all utterances and actions concerning election rigging. What ever it is,we hope MMD will easily accept the result of the forth comming election just as they expect others to accept though they have been saying that they have already worn. We also don’t know if they are rigth to say that even before the elections are held!

  282. #268, you are bitter bcoz your tribal pres has lost his province to SATA. walapila, we will see how many votes your under 5 president will get in Southern Province!!

  284. #263 Thats a very good opinion you have given,though you have just made one mistake by saying igorant supporters.it is just unfortunate that you have not dislosed you preference.you know what,lets face reality which ever candidate one votes for its on their own peril.You might say Sata has the propensity to sink the zambian,but iam also saying that RB will destroy the country because of his corruption,this is also my opinion.so which ever candidate we vote for we all take risks and one thing we should all have in mind is that any candidate mind bring light or darkness to this country.Iam puting my risk on the boat,where are you puting yours?hOP YOU ARE NOT ON THE NYAMA SOYA,COZ IT IS DOOMED

  285. Ba #1 muli cipuba. Are you equally looking for a Job, read today’s post some people were paid K150,000 to endorse RB cheap people like you.

  286. 262. Luapula Fish,
    Life is not only about majoritism. In fact, for your own information, majority of Zambians are uneducated. So if you think being in majority is presitigious then you are mistaken. And which Majority are you talking about; kaponyas and those whom kaponyas have influenced?

  287. Can u stop arguing manje bola ili mu injury time…..One thing is the boat will suffer the same fate as in 2006… pwetetepwetetetete

  288. why are Bembas naturally tribal? i say this because each time a bemba opens their mouths they are accussing others of being tribal. I was at function all the bemba where supporting SATA not because of his policies but because he was thier tribes mate. but the same bemba will tell you that supporting HH is being tribal common guys you cant have the cake and eat it at the same time. Of all the canditates HH has an upper hand interms of policies SATA is just a story teller and RB well an opportunist

  289. The Titanic will sink this nation…Sata is just like Mugabe…vote wisely….njoka ni njoka…if u want Z tobe like Zim vote Njoka Satan

  290. #284

    The lesser evil is to CONTINUE with MMD and continue with the gains made under the late LPM. There is no room for taking chances. Sata has very limited understanding of economic issues. This is not to insult him but just to state the facts. Sata has made more unachievable promises that any other candidate. To try and pretend that Sata can be that ‘messaih’ is simply to choose to be dellusional.

  292. You people who suport sata don’t you know that he is fold of street vendors(bakaponya, g’wang’wazi) he he comes into power there will be no repect in town

  293. If God allows Sata to go into state house then he is definately punishing us for our sins.

    If he gives us RB then he has given us chance to repent.

    If HH wins then GOD has pardonned us our sins.

    VIVA HH. VIVA HAKAINDE

  294. #268 you lier! I attended that rally. You just couldn’t believe the man can be that popular..
    VOTE PABWATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  295. Hey, what is that bandage on VJ’s head?
    Please mudala, go and rest in peace,How many deaths do you plan to die.ZWWWWWWAAAAAA!!!!!
    VJ must die for Zambia to live.

  296. TO STAND FOR SOMETING IS NOT ABOUT WINNING OR LOOSING BUT REPRESENTING SOMETHING… I STAND FOR CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN WIN OR LOOSE.

    WHAT DO YOU STAND FOR ??? THE CROWD, THE MOB, THE CHANTS?????

    LET YOUR VOTE COUNT. VOTE FOR THE BEST!!! HH FOR THE FUTURE OF ZAMBIA

  298. I CAN NOW SEE THAT UPND IS NOW VERY SCARED OF MIKE.THE TRUTH IS,MIKE IS WINNING.EVERYONE CAN SEE IT.THATS WHY THEY ARE JUST ATTACKING MIKE.THOSE WHO WANT TO LEAVE COZ THEY DONT LIKE PRESIDO SATA THEY SHOULD DO IT FAST.HH NEEDS TO DO A LOT OF WORK IN ORDER FOR HIS PARTY TO GAIN NATIONAL ACCEPTANCE AND APPEAL.HE NEEDS TO MARSHALL SUPPORT IN OTHER PROVINCES.HE SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET MPS IN OTHER PROVINCES,OTHERWISE THATS WHY WE ARE SAYING IT IS A PROVINCIAL PARTY,A TONGA PARTY.WAKE UP,YOU WILL BE LEFT BEHIND.GOOD LUCK MIKE AND ALL THE BEST.

  299. Is that a wound on VJ’s head? Imwe bantu sure please,the man is sick, chifundo ine, nachape, what a man can do to put nsima on the table!!!

  300. #288 I beg to disagree with you. I will repeat my comments from yesterday:

    A community can only live in peace and harmony if personalities of quality and virtue form the main segment of society.
    Zambia has lived in peace and harmony all these years. Now ask yourself which tribes form the main segment of the Zambian community?

    We Bembas actually fully uphold and practise humanist virtues like integrity. We believe in integrating people, regardless of their origin. We like to say “umuntu wesu” (a human of our own) implying that we treat people with mutual respect and genuine appreciation.

  301. No. 268 & 274 come home and see with your naked eyes that the people you see on Sata’s rallies are not computer generated but real.Viva Sata Viva PF Mwamukolooooooooooooooooooooo! Pabwatooooooooooooooooooooo!

  305. Why is RB and MMD claiming that people gave MMD up to 2011 so they should continue. These guys don’t understand, because its the same people who have changed their minds due to poor performance by MMD and wants change now. RB wake up and pack your bags.

  307. #274
    Those pictures are not computer generated i was at the rally in Ndola and i can send you the pictures if you want

  308. # 286 you seem to be very backward sure.Who tells you that majority of Zambians are not educated.I think you are one of those village mentality chaps who fail to accept facts.Mwana politics is a game of numbers and not education kabwa.When you say majority you think all those Mazabuka residents,choma & Monze are all not educated.What papers do you have if i may ask because only a dual person can think like you think.Umuntu niulya umwene and that is PF

  310. Are we that unlucky as a country or may be cased,coz we can hav ba mudala VJ coming from the grave and telling wat ever he has to say so that he can be offered a job.
    Comeon guys its time for change.

  311. The dead will raise and the Movement for Mad Dogs will be burried forever.

    Vj again in this business?guys let us be serious with the 30th Oct 2008 by elections.The oldies are coming back on the stage again, leave it for the younger onces please.

    Vote for H H

  312. Doesn’t refusal of appointing people from North Western Province equate to tribalism?!

    I doubt VJ is looking for a job, he is old and ill. Does that mean that if you are a party member and you show your support it means you’re job seeking. It means that all those supporting their parties are job seekers then. Ted Kennedy came to endorse Obama’s nomination with half his hair shaved off from chemotherapy. Does that mean he was job seeking or supporting the young man.

  313. You people who a claiming that Sata’s followers are computer generated and that the people are not voters.Please people lets face the facts the man is popular and if you can notice in almost all the area is being followed by large group.Even if he was to be Bill Gates can he manage to carry all those people everywhere he goes is it realicitic.Why ids HH not doing the same because the competition is between two people.If HH was wise he would have swolled his pride and choose to follow PF

  314. VJ did you have to go to RSA to have that horrible dressing applied to the back of your head -An Ear operation?- My foot ! It looks more like you had an excision of some growth at the back of your head. A better dressing could have been applied at Kalingalinga Clinic. When is it supposed to be changed ?

  315. trueleader of this end is SATA.PAABWATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  316. # 298 bados….
    and who told u we are all from southern province??? we support him because he’s plans are viable and he has proved to us that he has the man power and brains to carry out what he says.. not because he’s from where ever… check his companies if u’ll find any tribalism in his companies.

    I have voted two Bemba’s so far. They impressed me, now it is HH and i dont care what tribe he is because i dont subscribe to this tribal nonsense u and many i have rebuked in this blog.

  317. the real pipo!!
    HH cant work with HH the two are completely different. as u may have seen…. Sorry guys but two former president know better that pipo like sata need to work under someone because they are not balanced in their approach…

    SATA cant carry the One Zambia One Nation Tag

  318. You see time will come when God himself will deal with Vernon mwanga because he may be powerful but imposing the will of the people is not right.Let him know this once that his time will come and it is coming very soon.You see it’s not right everytime it’s him in the business of hurting people with his selfish desires.We know he may have his secret agenda about his properties and businesses but should it be done on the will of innocent people sure.You if anything happens to this country am telling you MMD members that you will suffer terribly and also your childrens childrens because we are not talking about your selfiness and a country for that matter.Why put someone who a cant even stay

  319. VJ you may think you are clever but am telling you time is coming because God will not let you impose a leader against the will of the people.Time is coming and am telling you it is coming because i have seen the rich go down.Whatever you may own am telling you time is coming when you will be punshed.Continue with your cartel because it will be destroyed.Let people’s wish stand because people are praying and if you think God can fail to sort you out he will this.You managed with Mazoka and you may manage but lets hope it works for you because am telling you you will be sorted out with your group by the power of God.Continue my friend getting rich on the expense of innocent people but watch o

  320. Stand for something dont flow with the crowd … u dont just stand join forces with pipo because they seem to be in the majority…thats the kind of politics that we’ll sink our nation… can we base our choices on issues….

    VIVA HH

  321. VJ your time is up just concentrate on looking after the children you produced in kitwe with other peoples’ wives

  323. Dollar at 4580 because of SATA MANI…
    Your president doesnt even understand what effect this has on the economy… he’s on radio questioning the importance of this… i’ll write down a few notes that upi can copy your president… he needs to be educated…

  324. VJ CAN NOT BE TRUSTED EVEN RB DOES NOT TRUST HIM.HOW CAN HE HAVE THAT BANDAGE ON THAT SIDE .PROBLEM WITH RB IS THAT HE CANT TRUST HIMSELF SELF.WHEN FRANK ,ZNBC,INTERWIED HIM, HE KEPT ON READING SHAME!.WE KNOW TILYENJI KAUNDA WILL BE MADE VICE.WHERE COZ RB IS NOT WINNING.PABWATOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  326. Go tell sata that
    -Govt accounts are in US$ and an increase in the rate means you have deficits
    – pipo buy cars in japan in US$ if the rate goes up then the cars become expensive( no visiting our mbuyas in the village)
    – Fuel prices are quoted in US$ an increase means the costs increase and pump price we’ll increase
    – Traders like my self who import goods from abroad we’ll have reduced profits… and i’ll support others as much

    Go tell your ignorant president the facts!!!!

  327. Time is of the essense and we hav no prob wth pipo endorsing any1 but wat we are tired of seeing the same old pipo take the centre stage of politics,were are u the young & freash @ heart.

  329. Muleke uku lelemuka ( talking irrelevant staff) Zambia deserves better… some of you lack entertainment and think choosing a president is a joking matter…

    kanga lileni panse… ( go play outside) you’ll mess our beloved country….

    VIVA HH

  330. VJ come on, rig the election. Let’s not allow that joker, that grade four police constable to take our country back into the 1800s. Rig the election for mother zambia and we shall be proud of u forever!

  331. Ndipo imwe bantu baliko ma image builders? I say so because njala is a problem some women have sold their voters muma komboni umu with Chitenge! Could it be the new way of rigging??? Look at the voters card photo and compare faces at the polling stations. People caught cheating should be jailed.

    Mu wato tilimo…………..

  334. This is not olo- fare. Zambia deserves better…
    SATA wont inspire investor convidence
    The world bank and countires that support devt programmes are the ones he is insulting….

    “Let the governer do what he best does… “execute what he is told”

    Presidence is not for mental infants who are stubborn and cant listen to anyone…

  335. Ba change you can believe you and i know that the reason Sata cannt work with HH is simple HH is tribal and talking about the two former presidents is it not Dr Chiluba who said in 2006 that he is in support of Sata and that KK in support of HH why the sudden change in direction sure.It’s you dont see the facts straight iye you are like the followers of HH.Lets hope you are not one of them.When you look at politics you should first understand why the all group of dirty and corrupt thiefs are following RB and do you know how much the government has spent during this period sure for you to sit and write about what you are saying.Face the facts straight becos you may be behind in politics

  336. #326 excellently put.
    All this boat nonsense is hurting the economy at the end of the day.
    For a man who idolizes mugabe its clear where the economy will go if he becomes president.

  337. WARNING TO VOTERS!!!

    IF IAM ASKED TO CHOOSE BETWEEN TWO THINGS, VOTING FOR SATA AND DEATH I CAN CHOOSE DEATH. I KNOW I CAN DIE WITH A PIECE OF MIND. SATA IS SATA EITHER YESTERDAY ,TODAY OR TOMORROW HE IS THE SAME. DO NOT BE CHEATED THAT HE IS A CHANGED MAN.

    WHATEVER PF/BEMBA SUPPORTERS SAY.
    1. HE DOES NOT WANT 2011 ELECTIONS IF WE WINS NOW.
    2.WE WILL HAVE 23 BY ELECTIONS FOR MPS IF HE WINS
    3.INVESTORS ARE PANICKING SOME PROJECTS ARE ON HOLD
    4.MUGABE WILL BE THE GUEST OF HOMOR IF HE WINS
    5.POLITICS OF ANTAGONISM DEFENSIVENESS AND VINDICTIVENESS WILL BE BACK.
    ETC

  338. 355
    you cant come here and claim you know politics better than me. stick to your guns…

    The point is they are not adopting him. Chiluba didnt when it mattered the most and only wanted to get a pardon for his cases….

    KK is now adopting a UNIP fellow… and am not an RB supprter for the reasons u have rightly pointed atleast we agree on one thing… u miss the point though because those were sata’s buddies!!

    VIVA HH… he’s the cleanest of all the candidates

  339. LPM acted urgently to save Sata………Zambia needs him? Why? Sata calls a spade – a spade!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Nili na matu na manso!!!!

    NOW! BWATO BWATO PERIOD…

  340. # 336 Change carries with it some costs.When Mike gets to Plot one,some poeple like yourself will not be happy.Equally,some sections of both local and foreign investors will be unhappy,but the most important thing is for Mike to carry the aspirations of the majority of Zambians forward.Think of Presido Morares of Bolivia.Thats the way we should look at Presido Sata.

  342. I HAVE KNOWN ZAMBIANS TO BE COOL AND INTELLIGENT BUT AM WORRIED I MIGHT HAVE BEEN ON THE WRONG SIDE. I WONDER WHY OR HOW A NORMAL ZAMBIAN WOULD OPEN THE MOUTH AND SAY “VIVA SATA” HEYYY WHATS HAPPENING BAANE. WHY CANT WE REFUSE TO BE THE TAIL AND BE THE HEAD. HAVE A LOOK AT THE ECONOMY TODAY AND COMPARE HOW IT WAS WHEN SATA WAS IN LEADERSHIP TOP THIRD MAN FOR THAT MATTER.GUYZ LETS REVISE,WISEUP,OTHERWISE WILL NEVER RISE. VIVA RB

  344. 337# Zambia needs strong leadership this is why people who want to see development in Zambia are angry with Miyanda – he is fearless but unfortunately somewhere somehow things are not right. Zambia too much lagging behind as we have ministers who just go out instead of attending important meetings are busy shopping for designers suite and perfumes. Look at some of these people’s residences….SHAME! We want good living starting from Kombonis. UNDERSTAND! We need a strong character to steer Zambia to prosperity not CORRUPTION ORIENTED!!!
    UBWATO!!!!!

  345. October 30 is just 2 days to go.Many zambians are about to get the shock of their lives. those who have the misconception of satamania hitting the country or RB having an easy win. will have to come to terms with facts of on the groung. Three days from now HH is being sworn in because many zambians have come to differentiate between politians who need to retire and Men who are ready to serve. Vote HH for REAL CHANGE. Vote PAKWANJA

  346. In most instances the same people attend meeting of all political parties. Thus will make their final decision before voting!!!!!

    Another observation: These resurrected politicians have felt the hunger – the short time that they have been out of office. How about ME! Thus I will vote for someone who has time for ME – Kaponya, uneducated, poor person…………

    Mwa mukolo………………

  348. #151 ba Munyono, Sata is not the cause of the weakening Kwacha. He is not in Govt. today and so has nothing to do with the dip the Kwacha is taking. If at all the economy was very stable and strong, the Kwacha would not have dived so sharply even in the face of elections. No excuses bwana, the truth is that the Zambian economy under MMD leadership is not sustainable. Experts used to advise and warn the MMD’s Govt. on how to use the income from the commodity item copper properly to firm the economy but you thought people were joking. Now you want to blame Sata, awe bane imwe ni ZWAAAA. Viva UBWATOOOOOOO Viva Sata. Two days to go!!

  349. Is mwaanga retired or not? Which is which mwana mudala?
    Retired politicians never go on elections campaigns. So are you retired or not?

  350. Zo kamba pa ma tribe niva puba cabe……. In every tribe there are tribalist. I don’t know about HH I can’t lie. Sata I know he is not. If you are a bemba lazy, or relative you will find it difficult to be near a Sata. It is only empty tins talking about tribes. Ask around…… This is why you will find he may not be popular with some bembas who wanted to use bemba tag for some favour….. Please ni change yamene tufuna………..

    NI WATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THE BOAT…………………

  352. #342, Iwe ka Mike. Currently Zambia is at the tail of every animal you name. Can you give a capital city in the world that looks like Lusaka? Is this what you call economic boom? Let me tell you, I love Zambia so fondly but we live just like animals, sorry the truth hates. Everything is dead, starting with councils, water utilities, schools, hospitals, road infrastructure, social services, environment, public facilities (e.g. toilets, libraries, restaurants, parks, driveways) they are all pathetic. We have every right to change to a candidate and a Govt we believe can make public servants accountable. Viva Sata we are ready to firm Zambia economically!!! Pa BWATTTOOOOOO natunina…

  354. #340 A revolution has to be wholesome brings me to an earlier question I asked how is PF expected to govern without one arm of govt not in your control. PF has 20 something MP’s Loyal to the party how do they face a parliament with over 120 opposition MPs…….disaster

  356. VJ kozwa yawe, twakatala, you are a proffessional rigger, thats the reason why you went to SA but you failed and you come with a bandage on your head so that pipo should think you went for treatment. ARVs are everywhere musa, why go to SA?

  359. RB talks about experience (in corruption and bribery) and continuity (unemployment and poverty). Can someone explain to me please

  360. #47,48, Pls Note: LPM did not prefer RB to be his successor, he had Magande in mind, so all you are seeing today, is what going on in MMD is all because of other people’s own preferances.

  361. Munyono,ula munyono mbuli zina yako.Me,am not a tribalist.I can even speak beta tonga dan u! Its just dat i support a person wu can deliver,and dat is Sata.so mulilemeke badala!

  362. VJ NGANAWUFYA BORG KUYAFWE MUKUNYA DONT TELL THE PEOPLE OF ZAMBIA SHEETS OK.
    YOU RETIRED AND I FELL TO UNDERSTAND WHY YOU ARE CAMPAINING FOR RB

    PABWATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
    00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
    OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO VOTE SATAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

  368. The will of Zambians supporting Sata is to have everything for free.
    If it means stealing they will want to do so.
    If anybody thinks employment in a private company without skills will be possible, mwailasha.
    It shall be more poverty.
    No sane investors will want to invest in Zambia.
    I blame FTJ and his LPM for all this.
    Now MMD has no credible candidate after LPM died.
    Woe in Zambia.

  371. RB, econmist Lund University
    Gen. Miyanda, Lawyer. Private studying and specialist in military law.
    HH, economist UNZA, and University of Burmingham, UK.
    Sata, no formal education qualification. Not even standard six. Last known employer Northern Rhodesia Police Force. Qualification: 6ft tall, physically fit. Discharged from the Force because of theft. Bembas give us a better candidate, and we shall back you.

  372. Ba VJ. Be sorry for ur self. why should u put the white staff around ur head. we are not young. Zambia wats change this time around.
    Look at the three past presidents which zambia have had before, they all, their names comes from the bible. david, Jacob and Levy the tax collector, a thief. and who among the four whos name comes from the bible? Rupiah, NO. HH, NO Miyanda, NO Vote wisely, vote SATA. Vote st Micheal. VIVA sata
    No tribalism pabwatooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
    Mwa mukoloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

  373. VJ MWAANGA’ULI CHITOTOLI SANA.MPUNO INAKUSOKONEZA.NEXT TIME WE SHALL NOT VOTE.UZAVOTA WEKA.WE VOTE WELL BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY WANYELAMO CHIMWAANGA.ZAMBIA IS NOT YUOR COUNTRY ALONE.YOUR DAYS ARE NUMBERED .WAYOONDA.WANYAYAA.SHAAAAME.

  375. I’ve been exploring for a little for any high-quality articles or blog posts in this sort of area . Exploring in Yahoo I finally stumbled upon this website. Reading this info So i am glad to convey that I have an incredibly excellent uncanny feeling I discovered exactly what I needed. I so much no doubt will make certain to do not omit this site and give it a glance regularly.
