  5. #14 You are a racist. What does it mean to be ‘full Zambian’?. You are either a Zambian or not. When will this backwardness end kanshi?

  6. :)Congrates Mr. Lubinda you are one of the few dedicated MPs we have and we wish good luck in your work towards the fight against corruption globally. I wish MMD chaps like Teta, Mulongoti and others could emulate him and change for the better!

  7. #14 Love Imwe you could have blocked Barack Obama to the White House keys. Twanyanya nabo abena nyama soya type. Lubinda, go for it. I can assure you of my vote if you stood for prezza mwandi.

  8. Hon. Lubinda, most youths look up to leaders like you. you may not be perfect but you live above what it takes to be a leader. the big question among most of us is tha “for how long are you going to hold-on?” please dont let us down like Dipak Patel did, he even dared to say that “history will judge him” at the time of betrayal – you remember when he forsook the masses for the love of Silver offered to him by Levy? now Dipak can not win any election in Zambia!! shame on Dipak, VIVA GIVEN!! Go for it and CONGRATS!!

  9. I heard a voice saying ‘how long shall we let Sata and his two helpers go on attracting the attention of the world? Sata,the white man and Zayelo have congured Zambia and now they want to congure the world. I did not understand the saying..I asked the voice ‘what do you mean?’. The voice said, look Kambongolo! PF is a party of three pipo, sata , the white man and the other is everything(Zayelo), however at election time they have great numbers voting them. A thing which has suprised the Big smokingguns. I shock my heard at hearing this term..smoking guns??? What is this I asked. The voice continued. Kambongolo, dont you know the former presidents? These pipo……..to becontinued

  10. Ba PF, STOP TALKING ABOUT SATA. START TALKING ABOUT LUBINDA FOR 2011. YOU ARE YET TO PROVE THAT PF IS NOT A TRIBAL PARTY. 😡

  11. No.31

    We would not like it if one os us was just referred to dismissively as ‘the black man’, so why do it in reverse? Let us set a good example and refer to the gentleman by his name,as you have done for Mr Sata.

  12. Given, I admire your courage but not your chain smoking. You are jsut like your President Sata. Thank God the sickness stopped him from Smoking, I pray that something will help you stop smoking.

  13. CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU GIVEN LUBINDA. INTERNATIONAL LEADERS CAN ONLY COME FROM PF-EVEN THE WORLD KNOWS. KEEP UP WITH THE PRINCIPLES, LUBINDA AND PF.

  14. I wish pipo can realise the potential of King Cobra and Lubinda to change the social welfare of the pipo of Zed. Zed pipo are blinded by degrees. We need pipo who act like king cobra and lubinda. Pit on you pipo and if you dont decide well in 2011, you are gone into poverty and hunger with your degreed politicians. Vote for actions, not Cvs. Viva Cobra and Lubinda.
