President Rupiah Banda has urged the new cabinet to ensure they work towards delivering promises made during the campaign for the October 30th poll.
President Banda expressed confidence that the new team will work to move the country forward adding that cabinet should also remain united in order to achieve its developmental objectives.
Mr. Banda said this when he swore in newly appointed republican vice president George Kunda, who is also Justice minister, ministers and deputy ministers.
Those sworn in included finance and economic planning minister Situmbeko Musokotwane and his deputy Chileshe Kapwepwe, minister of local government and housing Benny Tetamashimba, mines minister Maxwell Mwale and sport, youth and child development minister Kenneth Chipungu.
Others are labour and social security minister Austine Liato, tourism deputy minister Moses Mwangala, sports, youth and child development deputy minister Christopher Kalila, Eastern province minister Isaac Banda, Northwestern province minister Joseph Mulyata.
And speaking to ZANIS after being sworn in Finance and National Planning Minister Situmbeko Musokotwane described his appointment as a challenge.
Mr. Musokotwane said his appointment has come at a time when Zambia is trying to find a solution in order to cushion itself from the global economic crisis.
He said his ministry is also currently preparing the 2009 budget which is aimed at addressing many challenges the country is faced with including sanitation.
And Mr. Musokotwane has said government will devise measures to attract three to four billion US dollars worth of investments into the country annually.
He said the government will continue to provide a favorable environment for investments in order to woo more investors into country adding that there are currently other measures to stimulate economic growth.
The finance minister said government will further continue approaching investors across the globe to bring money into the country for investment in various sectors including infrastructure development.
And Mines Minster Maxwell Mwale disclosed that he had a meeting with chief executive officers of all mining companies in the country to discuss the falling world copper prices.
Mr. Mwale said government will ensure that all the mining continue to operate by dialoguing with the mining companies and considering high cost elements in the industry.
Mr. Mwale has said that government will also actively pursue oil explorations in North Western Province adding that it will also re advertise 16 blocks available for exploration as indicated in the mining act that was recently passed in parliament.
Meanwhile Communications and Transport Minster Dora Siliya has called for measures to overhaul business strategies in Zambia Telecommunications Company (ZAMTEL).
She noted that Zambia’s telecommunication growth has continued to lag behind adding that the recent strikes that rocked the country’s parastatal has led to loss of money.
Ms. Siliya also disclosed that Zamtel is currently owed over 620 US dollars in debts by its clients adding that there is need to revamp the company in order for it to generate wealth for social services.
no ways
I think the team is disgraceful
Bravo RB shame PF
I am reading there is a new party on the Horizon can someone confirm this
WHo is leading i have read Magande and Chirwa, for me it wont work bboth those 2 want to be presidents
Pay miners what you promised them
My instincs tell me Banda will vye for the presidence in 2011, The constitition allows that, and people are now scared , I mean if you challenge him, the chances are you are jobless, if you lose , what a farce
Lets wait and see the continuity in this group.
What are those promises RB promised ?
A lame cabinet can never deliver.Patali!
wrong cabinet with wrong positions
yes RB the choice of Finance Minister is an exellent one those are the CVs we want in govnt. Magande did a good Job as well but then it looks he had a divide allegience and if you are a CEO work with people that can push your agenda of poverty alleviateon. Musokotwane drafted the PASP paper that Magande relied on, he also worked for IMF thats the international financial exposure we need in these times. Kapwepwe also perfomed wonders at national airports even when Membe and Nchito had a deal with Magande to stop payng departure fees.
#8 that was cheap unga, cheap petrol, free sugar… malabishi
It is a share waste of time
Well its better than any that SATA could have appointed. Apart from Lubinda all PF Members of Parliement are not only a disgrace but useless as well. Thanx again Zambians for voting wisely. Lets try HH for 2011!!!
The only part of Zambia that will move forward is their pockets, relatives, maids, pets..etc…etc
#14 ha ha ha people always bringing SATA SATA SATA – ne’s not even in this article
PABWATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i think sata shud not be an issue here,the fact is that cabinet is the worst ever in zambia,except for fiance minister
Malabishi yekayaka.
how can he be confident when thieves have sorrounded him? infact even must be investigated by the task force.
LETS MOVE ON AND DELIVER WHAT THE ZAMBIANS DESERVE!THOSE WHO WANT TO WASTE TIME BY PERPUTUATING THE MYTH OF TENSION IN THIS COUNTRY MUST BE IGNORED AS THEY ARE WOUNDED AND ARE DESPERATE LITTLE FRIGHTENED MEN AND WOMEN TOGETHER WITH THEIR COHORTS AT THE POST! OTHERWISE THE COMPETENT COURTS OF LAW IN ZAMBIA CAN HANDLE THEIR COMPLAINTS.BRAVO TO DR.SITUMBEKO MOSOKOTWANE YOU ARE BRILLIANT AND INDEED YOU WILL DELIVER.SHAME TO THOSE WHO THINK THERE ARE NO OTHER BETTER ZAMBIANS TO HELP IN MANAGING OUR COUNTRY.H.E RUPIAH BANDA YOU HAVE DONE US PROUD! ONLY SOME OF THOSE ECONOMIC REFUGEES FULL OF THEMSELVES ON THIS BLOG ARE REALLY NOT APPRECIATIVE.THOSE ZEDIANS HERE ARE SIMPLY NOT SINCERE.
#16- Its a sign that they love him and(PF) dearly. Pretenders!
I doubted RB at first but the new carbinate is inspiring in terms of the financial sector. At least he looked at the CVs of the people. Those that are against it i think they are just jealousy of RB, Caleb Fundanga has remained, Mutati is still bringing investors, musokotwane has been eleveted, Kapwepwe is an exellent chatered Accounted as seen by the progress that national airports made during her time. Maxwell mwale was one of the most qualified SUPs in ZCCM and you know what that means to a shimine.
#20 what flag is that?
Shani Baby C,how was yo weekend?
Lets wait and see what the new guys and the two ladies will do. It was impresive for RB to appoint Kunda as Veep and Situmbeko too is good. But Situmbeko has come in when there are not many challenges at Finance unlike when Magande came in. Maganded had to confront IMF and World Bank policies to reach the HIPC completion point and get Zambia to almost zero foreign debt. On the way, people including the Post hated him and viewed him no less than a mad man.
Someone might mention the global financial crisis as one of Situmbeko’s challenges.But no. He will just be sleeping while the west deals with the crisis.
#4, the new party (CDP) rightly wants to fight the personality cult haunting some political parties in Zambia; viz PF arround Sata and UPND arround HH. Individuals’ details are yet to unfold.
Luckily for us in MMD; already we are founded around ideology and core values and NOT personalities like our brothers and sisters in PF and UPND.
Zambians do not need any further divisions but unity. CDP think again.Why not encourage people to rejoin and join MMD so that personality cult parties can die a natural death in the political free market of ideas.
ACTION TIME NOW NON-STOP FOR CABINET AFTER BEING SWORN IN.
Shani Baby C,how was yo weekend?
i feel a lot of chaps have bn misplaced eg Dr chituwo.
This is the best cabinet we can get now because PF would have given us first of all a Grade 4 President who in turn will have appointed his class mates.
Zambians you remain the best because you vote against the expectations of all selfish people.
#24.
Am now fine Man Kunde.Had a terrible hedek on saturday.And how have you been?
No ways!there is no much difference with the previous Cabinet,may be the only ministers who will make a difference are those who have just been introduced to the offices,unlike those who have been there before.Bakulaiba fye.pipo like VJ,TETA,LIATO,and many others have been in the goverment before so there is no way they can make zambia move forwad.they should done that a long time ago.
ALL THOSE ARMCHAIR CRITICS FROM THE DIASPORA MUST LEARN TO BE REALISTIC ABOUT OUR SITTUATION IN OUR BELOVED COUNTRY.DONT SHOW US YOUR SHALLOW THINKING ON THIS BLOG! WE NEED TO GET AND MAKE ZAMBIA A MIDDLE INCOME NATION BY 2030!ZAMBIA IS FOR ALL ZAMBIANS AND UNLESS YOU ARE TRAITORS HIDING IN THE NAME OF FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION, WE NEED EVERY SANE ZAMBAIN TO CONTRIBUTE POSITIVELY TO THE DEVELOPMNENT OF THE COUNTRY.THOSE WHO WANT TO CRITISE MUST DO SO CONSTRUCTIVELY AND NOT TO SOW SEEDS OF GENOCIDE LIKE YOUR DESPERATE FRED MMEMBE AND OTHER CONFUSED PRIESTS AND FINISHED POLITICIANS. IF YOU HAVE BEEN TO SCHOOL YOU SHOULD APPRECIATE THE PEACE THIS COUNTRY IS ENJOYING.
Lusaka Time, The Finance Deputy Minister is Chileshe and Not Mulenga please.
#31 what flag is that pliz
What a cabinet!
You Zambians why cant you just over the lection result.Whatever you say nothing will change and none of you Kitties will benefit. Labenikofye fyalipita. Concetrate on making zambia a better country which i doubt will happen. Chalipwa we have capsized in the middle of zambezi river.
#30 Matworld(Faimat)
Why are you talking about a difference in Carbinate when our campaign massage was continuity with positive developments. with MMD the policy does not depend on who is at the helm. the 1991 menifesto is still in effect all we do is adjust to suit current economic climate and challenges like we have done at the finance ministry remember ours is vision 2030. middle income economy by that year.
Why shud we alwayz be v best judges for others becoz the same will be done to us one day.Lets give them tym and see if they will perform or nt and nt judging someone before he or she does anything.
SATA SATA SATA we will always mention him becoz he is the one crying the loudest. The BIG LOOSER. Always remeber that the THE HARDER THEY COME, THEY HARDER THEY FALL.
Congrats bA bWEZANI and MMD
CHILIFYA and PF sank with the submarine ubwato, never the rise again,
VIVA HH for life
#38 unless southern ceases to be part of Zambia HH will never win
No. 32,
Please, what is the difference between Chileshe and Mulenga, completely nothing, they are both stinking thieves!
LT Editor, correction in your article…deputy minister of finance is not mulenga kapwepwe but chileshe kapwepwe.
Thugs of shades have once again ganged up to disparage RB’s new cabinet. These incorrigibles do not know that cabinet provides policy guidelines, leadership, inspiration and motivation while technocrats, workers and citizens actualize these.Some go on to say the cabinet has “thieves”! Which thieves are you talking about? This is the best cabinet for some time now mixing the young and the old. Get down to work, you gangsters.
#18 Georgia Russia is one of them. Give us a reason why this is the worst cabinet?
only one appointment of the ministry of finance is the best the rest are doubtful. We will wait and see. What about the shadow cabinet of Saki, Nawakwi, Nervers,Ngondo Machungwa and the like? And Tilyenji kaunda?
No 35 it’s sad to not that you cannot swim. Well some of us have crossed the Zambezi countless times. As a matter of curiosity…, what were you doing in the boat?
Have you heard that Anonymous is the Press secretary to the President. Check out todays Post Newspaper. Bloggers are landing jobs ka.
#42 big Mule,you give us tangible and convicing reasons why you think this is the best cabinet.And which new young faces have been appointed.You ask which thieves,are you serious.For example VJ is a self confessed drug dealer-Time magazine,1985.What has been the successes of some of these ministers in their previous portfolios.
#44 we had some AGIP passengers…
#40 hands off from the Kapwepwe’s family. For your information the three daughters of Kapwepwe are very disciplined learned and well cultured don’t dare to call them thieves they command respect from the cross section of the society.
When you say this cabinet is the worst or best give as some analysis how you have graded so that you convince other bloggers. Otherwise grading without a basis wont help!!
Same old Zambian circus
#42 at the Time when VJ sold those tranquilisers, it was not an offence in zambia to sell those drugs because they where neither classified as narcotics no prohibited drugs. they were merely part of the usual stock in his drug store. dont you wonder why he is not convicted and yet he readily admitted to the accusation when UNIP used it for political reasons. its like a pupil who carries a cell phone to school before the headmaster Bans the use of mobile phones then the child who nolonger posseses the phone admits to having carried it some time back. would you punish such a one.
Professor Chirwa has denied any association with the New Party, he says he is MMD and he is coming back to Zed next year for good to contest the MMD Presidency. So, stop yapping if you have no data
#51 that is so lame, so why does interpol and the german police still want to talk to VJ?
Labour Minister Liato, the ball is in your court.To achive the PF
slogan of less tax for employees and more money in there pockets
Liato should come up with a revised labour law which will benefit Zambia workers.
Liato recall when you were at Zesco,you fought for good salaries for Zesco employees.So do it for the Zambian employee especially Miners on the c’belt they are waiting they may just forget about PF.
Iwe ka Syvia. Now you are hoping that you are on the missing page like Akashabatwa, Nevers and Mbita.
Gentlemen first of all could steal the missing page from Kapiah Banda.?
Can someone confirm
55 Can say that in English? … Poor grammar!
Its really a shame for zambia cause very soon he start saying that he needs more time cause three years is not enuf.a person who can support this cabinet must be very dull,any this is Zambia the real Africa.myself its go go with pf and no one will change that. Hi Maestro,sarah,Baby c and V.concerpt.
same families, bootlickers, corrupt chaps, child molesters since 1964, atase malabishi. There are so many educated zambians in and outside zambia better than this group of guys. Anyway we wait and see.
Ms Siliya disclosed that Zamtel is owed 620 US dollars in debts by clients. Is Zamtel that broke such that even 620 US dollars is an issue.
RB Your Excellence you suprise me too much.You talk of job creations without realising what and how jobs comes about.
Look at the labour involved in the smelter project,driving tractors, in kcm they are all foreign.RB,don’t just read what they draft for you without looking at the facts first.
We shall wait and see the promises being delivered
What team will move the country foward, 3 changes is what you can talk of, come on it is sad to know that even after people spoke so clearly yet one VJM went ahead and did the trick he did in ZIm.well too bad Zambians, at least my base is in Canada iam not affected by this rubbish i came to put my weight behind people who wanted change but no peaceful effort can bring about change so it seems.Sad you guys have to live with lunatics like Tetamashimba and mulongoti by the way your Vice President speaks Bemba-english
Bravo! Zambia is considering troops to DR Congo. Lets help our friends in Congo. We need to send a clear message to the rebels that there is unity in SADC. It pains to see women and children suffering at the hands of power-hungry bandits like LAUREN KUNDA
I dont have words because these are jokes happening in Zambia.The Kwacha is depreciatin at a very faster rate. k4550/$ imagine

#46, Tonga Bull, I’m not sure chief Whip is a cabinet portfolio nor am I sure whether VJ was ever convicted of you imaginary charges. Can you suggest any of the MMD or PF MPS who is better than Kunda , Simbao, Kapwepwe, Msokotwane, Chituwo Mpombo, Shikapwasha, Mwale, Mwansa etc.At least just in traceable knowledge if you do not recognize their past achievement. Look at the people which RB is legally bound to chose from man!
Besides, it is time that will tell. For now just watch. Ok?
Hope you are not another Pwabwato skunk.
45 years ago, Kibaki and Michuki were in Cabinet and Kennedy was running
For President. Obama was 1 year old. 45 years later, Kibaki and Michuki are
still in cabinet, and Obama is a candidate for the same seat Kennedy was running
In 45 years, Kennedy is dead, then there was Johnson, Carter,
Nixon, Ford, Reagan, Clinton, Bush 1 and Bush 2 in USA in between as
presidents but in Kenya the same guys in their 70’s and 80’s are still
trying to tell Kenyans they can make development models that work?’
Makes u think??
#48 – Thats what it means to invest in a child’s education. I wonder if any is married or has children. Please these should be lessons but takes us back to the same issue – education is expensive, government schools operate for one term, the other two teachers are on strike because they need housing allowances etc. We can’t progress as a country in this way. Education brings development. I invite comments
Worst thing that happened to Zambia. Meanwhile, Kitwe still remains tense.
RB robed the westerners this time around a veep.What a shame.Come 2011 Western Province will have to vote with conditions not you vote and get nothing.Western Province has been cheated.Political power must be shared in all the provinces.All the MPS in wester province are MMD apart from those 2 in Lukulu.You mean all the MPs in western province are not capable of being Vice President.We are watching the situation.
Can someone please explain to me what motivates people to act like this. Here is a maize stuck and someoene for reasons best known to him or her chooses to talk about a single grain on an isolated maize cob from all that heap of maize.
iam suprised that people dont see anything wrong with this team there are people who are far much better than those guys you have mentioned Big Mule just sober up you will see that,dont look at the situation through the eyes of MMD but as a Zambian. Is this the best for Zambia really.
Even here, bloggers, SERIOUSLY,
I think the NCC should SERIOUSLY consider the question of qualifications for one to be president. I mean, we can’t rely on the fact that one performed when he was sent to the market, the hospital and when he was made free man of the city. Seriously, if one wants employment, there are qualifications required. If I need qualifications, the minimum being Grade 12, for me to be a cleaner, what more a REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT? Grade 4, no ways!
#73
This was a Presidential bye election. It was not a general election. It would be very funny for the president to appoint outside the current members of parliament. Things dont happen like that ah a.
Big mule # 67, are u a comedian?
# 75 i beg to differ with you. The Finance minister is a nominated MP.
#77
Good point, however, the President has limited appointments to make. I believe most of his appointees have been placed already.
MMD will deliver, This is the A team
#53
Iam not aware that VJ is on interpol and German police wanted lists. if that was the case then LPM could have surrenderd him along time ago. infact he could have disapeared during KKs reign. by the way VJ represented Levy in german in 2002 why dint they arrest him?
#77
What I was trying to say is that, he has limited choice to make over the appointment of cabinet. To completely overlook the previous cabinet make up would have been more like a policy shift to put in another way. Do you suppose he should have just overlooked the previous cabinet and appoint a completely new cabinet? Think about it.
The current cabinet is a perfect example league of adishonorable individuals!
# 77 the president has a limit to the no. of MP he can nominate. He cannot nominate the entire cabinet.
George Kunda was picked because he is dull. That is the usual criteria for VP. Saki and Aka are too intelligent. Sidelining of Magande in mid-term shows how petty RB is. Obama is tapping Mrs Clinton and even MacCain. When are yo going to learn, pilizi?!
imwe imwe ba #74,bushe ba grade 4 aba formingile cabinet, pliz lets not insult just bcoz you know how to,you are educated so lets see some maturity.
#83
That is a much better way of putting it.

I LOVE AND VALUE EDUCATION.INFACT I JUST CAME FROM A COURSE SPONSORED BY THE EUROPEANS-EDF.ONE THING SO CALLED TECHNOCRATS SHOULD BE REALISTIC ABOUT IS THAT THEY ARE VERY BAD SUPERVISORS.I WILL ALWAYS SAY THAT GOVERNMENT WINGS HAVE THE MOSTS EDUCATED PEOPLE BUT I ALWAYS WONDER WHY THESE SAME WINGS ARE SO DIRTY,HAVE TOO MANY WORKSHOPS,SERMINARS,SCHOLARSHIPS E.T.C BUT VERY LITTLE IMPROVEMENT!

How are you my friend? can I ask you some questions?why are you there? when are you coming back to our beloved country? Iam not happy to be in a foreign country but our economy will stop me coming home.I know you have some faith that our economy will improve,which is true but not under MMD.can you believe it that a Malawian Kwacha is stronger than our currency.in short in my first comment I said there is no way it will make zambia move forward coz they have failed to do so before.May be I just don’t know,what are some of the things that you can say VJ has done for our country apart from closing radio phinix.
People please, What new team??????? are these not the same names Levy had, Some of them Chiluba had in his government and some where even in the Kaunda times?? Am wondering who is new in the team…
@95 Mama jinx
There are no changes, never any changes, the same old politicians are recycled year in year out! and that is why our country is going to the dogs!
#94
AMEN!
Fair enough they are a few up anc oming new politicians there, but the bulk are just career politicians who do not hesitate to change parties or ideologies as long as they can continue to eat and misappropriate government funds!
pipo, it seems LT has become a web for shallow minded people. Can we analyze things intelligently and critically.mwilalembafye cikulu kulemba.

The new broom is sweeping but honestly George Kunda seems to be sickler we don’t need another 1 month national morning.

Good observation,most pipo think they r stil the only educated zedians when we r now too many.They will continue to b treated like that until we do something.Don’t ask me what we should do bcoz i don’t know.
Am trying to convince my beautiful dog, spookey, to contest the presidency in 2011.Kaili tapali ifilebomba

@108 anonymous sychopant
I wondered how long it would take before you came on to defend your Father Rupiah Bandas suspect government!So I am giving you the opportunity to attack my youthfulness now before you embarass yourself with silly insults! and in response to your view that I should show you respect cause of your old age, i would just like to say BOLLOCKS to that cause respect is earned and your narrow minded clearly compromised position does not engender respect in me at all, so you can do one!
The New president has no ideas look at the people he’s brought back, a bunch of unproductive politicians. Zambia is going backwards.
gentlemen during the press coneference where RB was announcing his ‘new cabinet’ we were told a page was missing. apparently this is the same page where we assume Bradford MACHILA’s name should have appeared. does anyone know what has happened to this page – whether it was found and which ministry is Machila heading. he was assured by RB that he was still a cabinet minister – now suppose all the ministries were called out and allocated – hwere is MACHILA?
sata could have made a worse team call boys and bus drivers now turned millioners. You can take the mokey out of the jungle but you cant take the jungle out of the monkey poeriod. Sata not presidential material when are you going to learn.
The mealie meal prices have shot through the roof, today’s dollar Kwacha exchange rate is K4,700 per US $ and inflation is double digit.
If I was one of them, I would be very worried and avoid talking carelessly. They have alot of work to do. It is time to get down to serious business and talk less.
#115 Miss President
I have noticed these days that we Old men are targets of young women. I am very hot if you want to know. I am fully capable of meeting taking care of you. But dont jump on that one yet, if only you are beautiful. I see you missed me. I am one piece of creation. Try a denzil Washington who just happens to be my age mate. In looks I can easily say I am a match if not better than Denzel. So try me, If you are lucky, You might just convince me.
There is a plane crash in IPONGO in Chibombo district
Miss President
But I see that you are more attracted to urgly Sata and snakey priest. You are very mischievious eh. Come to Kazungula,and I will take you around.
But the most loud women are the urgliest around. No wonder young men are running away from them.
#115
I am a pleaser of the good. I am an ardent hater of the mischievious and liars. I have a holy hatred for the life style of hypocrites and liars, those that bring about chaos.
@ 122 Anonymous psychopant
Considering you are a staunch RB supporter I am not suprised that you are the type of sugar daddy (aka dirty old man) that prefers to be with younger women, they do say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery so I can see what you are probably trying ( and hopelessly) failing to do.
If you can not get it into your thick gertiatric head, that I am not a partisan supporter but a nationalist, ethical and idealistic patriot who wants the best for her country, then you old man are beyind saving and I will pray for you.
#119Zambian.
sorry I didn’t believe you,but I know believe,though I can’t believe what seen on the currency conventer.
@124 i have interperated what you really mean:
1) You are pleaser of good = psychopant ass licker
2)ardent hater of mischevious liar = Vehemently opposed to Freedom of speech and expression.
3) hatred of lifestlye of hypocrites and liars= Hypocrite cause you are greedy theif and liar!
4) Hate those that bring about chaos= Unless it is the Government and the police oppressing the opposition.
RB and sick zambians should not be prouud of the fake cabinet in place.The only thing RB did was to appoint minister on regional basis.I still wonder why did he drop MR MAGANDE?politics of hetrad and ungretfulness.Let us give thanks where it is due.
A chopper has been seen headed towards the crash area
lets wait and see
Does anyone know what has happened to handsome Bradford Machila? Has RB found the missing page on which machila’s portfolio was listed down? I hope he sends him to Ministry of Justice if the missing page is never found. The new VP can not manage 3 things: (1)Ministry of Justice; (2)the vice presidency and (3) his health. He needs help if he can perform effectively
SATA IS MY MAN; how are you bro? You’re missing from this site today, whats up? Nursing the old man’s bruised ego? Good luck.
How can this cabinet deliver when they are failing to provide even the basics; they promised fertiliser which is now almost impossble to access.
$129, please tell us more about the plane crush. Commercial? Chartered??
Job offers are based on remarkable success one has made in the past positions. 50% of this cabinet is recycled with no hope of new ideas for zambia. What is it that they started and need to finish in the next three years? They all wallowed in the vision of levy including RB. Now that Levy is gone, we wait and see…..NOTHING!!!
SARAH YOU ARE TALKING. MORNINGSIDE CLINIC PATIENTS VJ,VEEP, MULONGOTI WHAT A GOVERNMENT.
The reason Western Province did not get a Vice-President is because Western Province already has the SPEAKER of the National Assembly.
Zambia is large and it is not good to monopolise positions.
We thank the people of Western Province but please be generous and let another Province have the VP.
As you know there is no Bemba or Bisa Minister at all. Mutati is Lungu, Kunda is Lala that is why the Bembas and Bisas are so angry
#125 Miss President
To set the record straight, I am much older than Mr Denzil Washington and I am not interested in young ladies. I am happily married and I am glad that I have a faithful wife wh has been a a companion all these years. So, I am not anything close to what I intimated these last postings. I was just pulling a leg.
The thing that is clear is this about you. Whilst you may have some ideas about politics, youare yet unfortunately immature. I say this based on your interpretation of the freedom os speech. I might have hate you by stating that you are dull. You are simply still reeling over that issue. As a matter of fact, you are dull as much as it may appear unfair.
congratulations!lets just hope we wont see any dissapointments
The simple facts before us is this, you believe what that priest said was very much within his right. I can hardly believe that you are so blind to the impropriety committed by the priest. I dont believe that a young person like you can disregard context and just jump on the conclusion that the priest’s rights were infringed upon? In essence you are saying that the police were the causers of the riots.
If you are familiar with the bible, the situation here is similar to the prelude of the crucifiction of christ. Pilate asked the crowds, who should I release for you, Barabas or Jesus, the cowds shouted ‘give us Barabas’. A riotus fellow was prefered over Jesus. And you know what,

If you are a married man then your wife must be so ashamed of you because you are very immature!! How many times do I have to spell it out to you that I acknowledge that they are limitations to the Freedom of Speech for Hate Speech ( racism /homophobia etc…)and Pornograpy et al as interpreted by the governing authorities.
#139 Cont’d Miss President
the priests and teachers of the law were very much in support of the riotus Barabbas and infact made sure that the innocent jesus was crucified. You completely talk about ‘freedom of speech’ isolated from the issues on the ground. I find it hard to believe that an educated person like you, probably exposed to higher democracies fails to see these things. If you were to support another person, other than sata, perhaps I would give you a benefit of doubt. But here you are taking the side of a riotus character, who is a well known abuser of the rule of law, sata. If the sata I know is the same sata you are supporting, then we must be from two different worlds or
#22,36 – you never doubted yo rb,you’ve always supported him.So dont pretend.Rb woud have appointed all the condemned politicians and still you would have supported him.
#116 Samson Sinkala, Who did you want Rupia to appoint? Yourelf. Don’t make me laugh. You are just a tramp. Even Obama has to appoint people who campaigned for him. Any successful team has to be homogeneous. Did you want him to appoint stragers from the diaspora? What have they done apart from jumping on a boat to the Canary Islandas.
The people who campaigned for Obama will be on his team. That is how the music plays. Mulongoti and Teta risked their backsides for RB and you want him to throw them away and appoint you instead. You must be a junk head
#142 Miss President
You underestimate the magnitude and implications of those ‘limitations’. To put it simply, If the jugular(lol) vein is even slightly cut, the person or whatever victim is a gonna. The premise or the spirit of the law takes into cognisance the dignity of man. You cant not say the priest has the right to speak freely when in so doing, he may be offending others. There is an argument before the courts, whether elections wee rigged or not. The priest cant not jump and take a partisan position. Notice, I am even not bothered to mention what he actually said. His position is well established. He claims that the elections were rigged.
146 And please God would not want you to use the bible to justify Police Oppression, that is manipulation of the scripture, something that islamic fundamentalists are fond of doing! You are not mentioning what he said becasue you Can’t even PROVE what father Bwalya said because not once did he say go out and riot, he just expressed concerns about the LAW, that is all and if you think that that is inciting violence then you are an evil and deluded psychopant!
The kwacha has lost value because of the dismissal of Magande lelo lelo
#142 Miss President
How can mywife be ashamed of me? You dont even know her. That is simply childish talk.
If you were standing and supporting a young person like HH, i WOULD HAVE EASILY bared with your misgivings, but you stand supporting a person like sata. I am simply amazed. I suppose you want to make me believe that by supporting the idea that the priest’s freedom of expression was infringed upon means you standing up for human rights. Iam afraid, you are highly mistaken and I have no better way of putting it milder than I have said before, that is dullness.
Missing list is being crazy on part of those who Nyunyared RB on positions. Teta and Mpombo nyunyared RB instead of having a page which had the name of Machila instead they put a page that had Liato. Liato according to Nyama Soya was to be appointed as deputy head boy in the ministry of labour. What kind of a president who goes to address a press without going through what he is about to tell the nation and the world atlarge. Plz Zambians fire Nyama Soya he is such an emabarassment to our nation’s intellectual capability.VIVA HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH for 2011
@147, 146, Madam Miss President and MR Anonymous, Lets stick to the topic at hand
#140Zambian.I have just checked,hey it’s terrible.Iam powerless,Zedian where are we going kanshi?Iam one person who loves to be on earth but sometimes,I wish Jesus could come soon to rescue us.
The police and the MMD caused the riot because they over reacted, If we all didnt say things because we did not want to cause offence,then nothing would be said and done and we would still be living under colonial rule! Where in the bible does it say that those who cause offence must be apprehended?
Miss president and Mr annonymous let’s not fight but think of how we can help our president and his cabinet.Both of you sounds like Good pipo.Let’s show pipo in the countries where we are that Zedians are good piponot hooligans.God loves you.(miss president and mr annonymous.)
hey kapwepwe women mahule fye! why was chileshe crying during sworn in ceremony? why did she lose her job at national airports? pls shade some light?
Ba sikota sakwiba is sick, skin grey sorry, no viceee position even Aka disapointed these lozi starving chaps.
@ 149 ditto! then dont make comments on my character and age , since you dont even know me ,old man!
@ Mossad-kgb: apologies, this is a contiuation from last week, I just can’t belive the idiocy that this man aspews,I’ll get back to the topic!
Miss President
What if the priest had taken a peaceful stance by complying with the demands of the police when they warned and cautioned him. What if he used his priestly obligation to behaive in a manner that would ensure that no disturbance ensued. What if he simply obeyed the scripture and said for the sake of my brothers I will keep quiet. That would have been more christian than taking a stance or playing victim. Did he not estimate the implications of his stance? The good christian man will not put his brothers at risk by deliberately taking a position that would result in a riot. A riot occured as a result of the priest position.
Zambiana,you are A Sata hater, like lou dobbs the Obama hater, take it from me come 2011 Sata will rule, and by the way talking of grades what is Vera Tembo’s qualifiction? when she was ftj’s wife ther were rumours that in fact she was a maid cum- wife! if we can have maids for ministers, we can have former police officers for president, after all it is on record at least for ZAMBIA that it is the humbly educated(KK THE FORM 2 TEACHER) who deliver because they are nearer to the common man not the lawyers or economists of this world they come in to plunder big time! AND SPEND 17YEARS MENDING POTHOLES, AND CONVERTING COLLEGES INTO UNIVERSITIES, NO SINGLE ROAD BUILT NO NEW UNIVERSITY BUILT!
I n all honesty, would you rather support Sata over and agaisnt RB? I can hardly understand why a seemingly exposed and educated young girl like you can choose a maniac like sata over RB. In essence to choose Sata is more like choosing Barabas over Jesus, though not implying that RB can be equated to Jesus. The fact is that put side by side sata is by far worse than RB when it comes to human rights violations. The violent incidencies in chawama have been attributed to no other than sata. Just last week, whilst the verification exercise was going on, sata assaulted an innocent person. Sata’s language leaves much to be desired.I can go on and on. Here you are a seemingly morden lady,
@ 157
Even you know yourself that Father Bwalya did not say go out and Riot, not once, nor did he say anything relating to violence. Why do you insist on defending the curtaling of civil liberties? are you happy that Zambia is now returning to KK days of opression and supression. And you call yourself christian but are happy to see a man of God be arrested for voicing an opinion.
It is a known fact that the new Veep is an invalid, very seropositive and thanks because all the people living with HIV/Aids will be taken care of.We just hope he does not use the new position to infect job thirsty women in Zambia who cannot get anything without using their backs.What a sick nation.
Please give decent women what they dewserve.Chileshe, we know where you slept last night and the hard work it took for you to be where you are.We know your acca was not enough to land you the job.
Mwaanga again!!!
We learnt nothing from Obama about change.
We voted Mc Cain.
We deserve what ever we get from now on.
#157, Iam obliged to think that the priest’s radio messages did not cause the riots but the unthinkable decision to arrest him.Radio chengelo has broadcast similar messages before and people were not moved to riot, the problem I see is that the days of freedom of speech ushered in by FTJ are now over WE ARE BACK TO UNIP mulilo waikatako wapya! slogan! very retrogressive!!
I reiterate I am not a PF supporter, but I support their ecomomic policies cause as a political economist they make sense to me as the best model for Zambia to develop, I support Pro poor economic policies!! thats my perogative! I do not support RB , because the first I heard of him in 15 years was when our President died!He had no policies, except for promising to contiune LM’s legacy, he lacks charisma, he has a 27 year old wife ( what happened to his first one?), and he will be contiuing the legacy of foreign investors plundering Zambian resources at the expense of the poor!
@ anonyomus
Who is your source? the state owned Times of Zambia? becasue I am 100% belive that you are a government mole, pretending to have some knowledge of the bible!
God is watching, you can not lie to him and he can see through heresay and people who use his word to justify their corrupt agenda!
#160 Miss President
There lies your problem. It fails me to understand that you are educated yet state and ask such shallow opinions. You must bear with me, this were you completely miss it. You cant see this priest as having gone beyond his limits, then in all honesty cant help you. You are simply dull and extremely immature. The premise of my argument is clear and yet you continue to state what I have already clearly stated before.Do you think the devil comes knocking on your door saying ‘ I have come to harm you’? You completely shadowed and blinded by the office of the priest and declare him innocent regardless.
Some of these people don’t look so bad. I think that the opposition and fellow citizens should give any democratically elected government time roll out their plans and wait to see if they are implemented. This does not mean, however, that we cannot actively and constructively criticise the incumbent and his cabinet’s policies.
There is one issue in particular that I would like to raise. Dora Siliya “has called for measures to overhaul business strategies in ZAMTEL”. How about deregulating Zambia’s international gateway, would that not be a start? I don’t know what everybody thinks, but this is hurting our telecoms industry. Apparently it now costs the mobile networks in Zambia $19.5 millio
for international gateways licenses. This makes Zambia the most expensive democratic state in Eastern and Southern Africa for private telecom investors to do business, in comparison to $214,000 in Kenya and $50,000 in Uganda. The status quo also means that the government can record every call made, sounds like communism to me! Now I know many of you are saying so what’s the problem, it’s more revenue for Zambia?
Well it’s not really because the people that suffer, ultimately, are you and I. The higher the license fees the more money it will cost you to top up your mtn and your celtel mobile, and for those of us that want to call family, the higher your bills. How many talk direct phone car
Ba Mwaba mulecindikako ama ladies. And pliz stop being tribal no one is interested in vulgarity on this site. with people like you any wonder we cant develop as a country? Is it a sin to cry? Kapwepwe’s father worked at ministry of finance so her appointment brought back memories of her father.Its not our fault that you dont love your father.
MISS PRESIDENT MADAM,I read RB’S profile in the Post where he quoted that his first wife had died
Akulu Mphuno can you pliz give Miyanda akafulo? the dude is in peril. after several efforts for plot 1, he is hurting badly.
Miss President
The priest aught to never indulge in activities that would put innocent people at risk. You think he was representing the peoples opinions. Where is that stated that that is his duty? The priest should only speak and act in accordance with the word of God. The priest taking a partisan position is deliberately and consciously abrogating his duties as a priest. No where are we told that the priest’s duty is to speak on behalf of people, infact his only obligation is to speak according to the word of God, which often is agaisnt the wishes of men. To be popular with men is to be agaisnt God. The word of God is very specific on this matter.
@ 166
Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one, even Old men like you! Your only arguement is that, as a Preist he shouldnt comment on non spiritual matters, that does not mean he should be arrested if he does. He may be guilty of having spoken but he is INNOCENT of the charge of inciting violence! as anyone in Kitwe who isnt paid by MMD can attest to, why can you not understand that?
But why are some bloggers condemning appointment of Kapwepwe? Did you expect RB to nominate the low calibre women of NAKAWALA’S class? Those of you who are against Kapwepwe, can you give me some names of women RB should have appointed? Its also sad to learn that even some women are against her appointment
Miss President
In your honest opinion, this priest, was he standing on Gods principles or men’s? He priest who shares the same view points with characters as Sata is a suspect priest. A priest who can agree and and defended by criminals is a highly suspicious priest. For how can light and darkness collude. A criminal who loots other peoples property is the priest’s defender? I am simply amazed. You say he speaks on behalf of the poor? I very much doubt.
Sala kahle
As a priest and a broadcaster Fr. Bwalya should carry out his duties with a sense of responsibility. He carries a lot of respect and he should not abuse that by going on the mountain to proclaim that Government is illegitimate without taking that evidence to court! and he was preaching that in a very sensitive area where youth unemployment is high! what did he expect? smiles?
@ 166 so you say that to be popular with men is aganist God? am sure you have no problems with that, becasue I doubt anyone likes you!
Look we will have to agree to disgree becasue I belive if you are going to uphold the prinicples of democracy it has to be all encompassing and not selective( yes and observing the limitations relating to hate speech, pornography etc..).
Zambia is in a dangerous state and people will have to be vigilant not to let the government resort to Hitler/Idi Amin like tactics to suppress the opposition! it is our right to speak up aganist injusitce and hold the government to account!
Mossad some people are just good at criticizing they cant even wait for people to report to their offices before they start criticizing. Kapwepwe to me is well qualified. we can only condemn her when she fails to perform.
the government has a mandate to the people to be fair and transparent, put Zambian intersts first above all else ( not foreign nations and multinational companies and mining corportations!. They have a responsibility to be defend us not oprress us, and allow us our personal and civil freedoms, without fear of arrest and intimidation!
If Frank Bwalya is so interested in the welfare of the poor can he tell us how much he pays his workers and other conditions they enjoy. Hypocrite!
@179, spot on! Too mush jealous amongst our countrymen/women. We don’t want to support those who are seemingly doing well. We must learn to give credit where its due.
goodnight bloggers! and anonymous am sure your and your old self will be back again tomorrow defending UNIP/MMD/NAZI rule to the maximum!
Love or hate the Priest, he should have the freedom to express his opinions. That is what takes place in a real democracy. I don’t think you have to support his views to support his right to free speech. Where are we headed if people cannot express their opposition to the government without fear of reprisal? All those who are against him and support his arrest should remember that TODAY IT’S HIM, TOMORROW IT WILL BE YOU. Isn’t it funny how people perceive this type of archaic behaviour as acceptable and warranted as long as it targets their political enemies. How are people expected to hold the govt accountable when they can’t critisize it?
Sikatana if you have information of the cabinet officials being involved in corruption why can’t you report them to ACC? Just come out it seems you know them very well. But if you don’t act then you are a coward and your allegations are baseless better keep quite.
These are all rejected products,and they have been dumped in the Zambian cabinet. RB is there to stay,come 2011, this man wil stand again.Dora Siliya can you shut plz,you have failed. This bloated cabinet,this i just a burden.These characters are there just to syphone the national treasury. Just making noise.
Out of curiosity, how many Ministries does the Zambian government have? Anyone?
#16 THATS HOW THEY DREAD SATA. THEY ATLK ABOUT HIM EVEN IF HE IS NOT IN THE TOPIC.
HH will never rule this country, his party is too tribal.RB has a very shallow cabinet except DR Musokotwane.
what is it that Mwaanga patient does that even a layman cannot do plz help me
Some of you who are excited,and you are seemingly optimistic,about this cabinet.Are you in the right frame of mind? Because as far as am concerned,these are the same people.There are very few new faces and reshuffles here and there thats all. Why are some people so sleepy?
#189 can you tell us how shallow the cabinet is ? or are you just generalising? as far as i know people like, mutati, simbao,Kunda,Chituwo, kalombo Mwansa,Dora, Lungwangwa and others are all very qualified.. unless your shallow means something else.
Miss president please spare us. Hopefully when you return to this blog don’t forget to put on some Red lipstick for a showdown with Anonymous. And Anonymous grab yourself some beer before she returns for round three. This time brace your yourself for a cat fight.
Don’t just sit there and criticise the cabinet. If you think you can serve our country better than them, why not join them? Some of you on this blog are well educated and have the potential to bring positive change to Zambia, what’s stopping you from going back home and making things work?
Layman look at VJ’s history then maybe, just maybe you get the answer e.g the guy served as director of the intelligence service for Zambia( i dont think you need an illiterate for that) He also served as managing editor of the Times of Zambia, and he served as Zambia’s permanent representative to the united nations for years . these are just what i know they could be some more. He apparently is not as dull as many people would want to portray him. Read his books.
‘Mr. Banda said this when he swore in newly appointed republican vice president George Kunda, who is also Justice minister, ministers and deputy ministers.’
Good job Mr President RB Banda. Let us now move on for we have people complaining of hunger in parts certain parts of Zambia that need food and other basic needs of sustaining their lives.
Imwe ba annonymous naba miss presindent lekani ndewo wen you come back. It looks to me like you fancy each other. Maybe arrange to link up.
RB’s cabinet if full of retirees.I would have loved a much younger but experienced cabinet.He isd also a disappointment that he has taken vendettas against those that dont agree with him
#198 dont generalise. how many retirees are there?
Southern province are biggest losers in this new cabinent!
Whatever…mukudya ndiyo bwanji lelo?
#22 iwe u r a shame, u r incoherent and ur english is pathetic.ndiwe engine yachani? motoka yama doti?????
This is emotional but a clear punch in the Sata crusade wrecking his Regional hold in Northern province.
Ms Kapwepwe between tears
Finance Deputy Minister, Chileshe Kapwepwe almost wept when she was being sworn-in by President, Rupiah Banda, on Monday morning.Ms. Kapwepwe later told ZNBC news that it was an emotional moment for her to be sworn in as Deputy Minister.She said this was the same ministry where her late father, Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe served as Minister in the first Republic.She said her father would have been very proud of her appointment because she was following in his political footsteps.
Mr. Kapwepwe was a freedom fighter who helped to liberate Zambia.He also served in various ministeries and was later appointed Vice President in 1967.Mr. Kapwepwe in 1980 after suffering a stroke.
RB AKA “RABIED BULLDOG”
B Liato bena! awe mwe! nga waya ku office kumyabo fyonse fye ki ma Lozi fella! driver, secretary, etc.
Imwe ba #14.Chilufya HH Bwezani…..your HH will never rule. can you read between the lines??? 2011 RB will still win if the two opposition parties dont come together. Learn to look at things correctly. Posistions in goverment are there to serve the people. Even if you try your HH mu 2011 as things stand he will not win. trust me!!! Look at how badly he performed in the last election. I hope you agree with me that the time we have had the MMD in office they been a let down.
Please RB and new Cabinet , patch Livingstone Zimba road ….A giraffe can easily hide in the potholes actually the ditches now…we will now vote for you MWAVELA ABANDA don’t forget us
Mwanga’s time is up. This is the luck of seriousness we talking about. the man is so sick and his been appointed as chief wip just to keep him going. Medical bills wise. Why show dullness by say cos he work at the UN, cheif Shushushu. Do we still keep him cos he worked at the UN??? How many more zambian people are today working mu World bank, IMF, UN and many other important places in the world? Look at that Mweenda guy at the world bank, zambian ku nasa etc. we have learned people who can also move the country. wake up!!!
Kunjani Ba fwetu, ngiyanibingelela.
#167. Amenso truely walikwata amenso!!!!! that international gate way thing is long over due. We cant go on protected Zamtel monopoly when zamtel can run as a business but as an election money maker. we have a duty to look at things in another way. Look at the infrusture zamtel has had. cell phone market share they are # 3. how do we go on?? this company has to start running as a business not a company where MMD goes during elections for money. NO!!! They are always last in introducing services. just watch them if you have not been following.
Ma dodani , nkosikazi, bonke ngiyanibingelela. Sawubona
Nothing will change mu zambia. til next election. its the same people guys. they will spaend the 2 yrs plus remaining fighting and pushing the people who opposed them. watch this space!!!!
Just another puppet regime toting the west’s policy of “one world government” or perhaps, worse, Chinaman’s brut force aggressive occupation of my BELOVED country, Zambia, and soon all of sub-Saharan Africa. Either way real losers are the Zambian people. Mostly because we put up with this crap. Most of us are passive. We need to CHANGE folks!
#84 Iwe factologist what are you braggintg about.dont talk about issues you dont understand very well,you think the only people that can change things in this country are those that were in the former cabinet NO!we needed a change of cabinet for things to change and dont even waste your time talking about Mc cain and mrs Clinton coz this is not america,you have failed to achieve what other african countries like south africa have achieved so then how possible is it that we can be like america think my friend dont just yacket…development is a process and that is what this country is going through right now.we will get there through Gods Grace.
Too bad for Magande should have left honourably he has done a good job.Such is life.Not good to be too ambitious sometimes,should have left just when he lost to Akulu Mphuno in that MMD thing,he had it coming.Now he should concertrate on his party and push for change of that 1 percent constitution.The constitution needs changing its a sham and a rigging friendly constitution.No President who wants to stay in power would push for a change of that constitution.Its very uncivilised sorry to say Zimbabwe constitution is better than ours by farAnd VJ is back from retirement?circus pa Zed.
To be honest they are all rejects and pliz dont expect anything new from them..
Unip is back.Please which legancy is RB using it is like he was telling lies when he said he will continue with levy’s legancy.Mwanawasa would have not fired Magande,Mwanawasa would have not brought VJ in the system. VJ is roating starting from his ear.what has masebo done to be fired as well.RB is full of Ma rubbish. This is the most rubbish Cabinet i have ever seen.
MA Rubbish
The R&B team is rubbish
THE DISORGANISATION OF THE PRESIDENT AT LAST FRIDAYS PRESS
CONFERENCE, LEAVES MUCH TO BE DESIRED. MISSING PAPERS. APPEASEMENT APPOINTMENTS BASED ON HOW MUCH ONE CAMPAIGNED NOT ON CAPABILITY & ABILITY. I FELT SORRY FOR MACHILA BEING ASSURED THAT YOUR NAME IS ON THE LIST. TO DATE WE DO NOT KNOW WHICH MINISTRY HIS HEADING. LETS BE SERIOUS! 3 WEEKS WAS ENOUGH TIME TO PREPARE THE LIST TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE THERE WAS NO BACK UP COPIES FROM BANDA`S ASSISTANTS. HOW EMBARASSING! CALLING DIPLOMATS TO WITNESS SUCH………
I’m really impressed along with your writing skills as well as with the structure on your weblog. Is this a paid subject matter or did you customize it yourself? Either way stay up the nice quality writing, it’s rare to look a nice blog like this one these days..
