Five hundred police officers will on today be deployed at the Lusaka High Court, ahead of the Supreme court ruling on a petition to recount last year’s Presidential elections.

Acting Inspector General of Police, Francis Kabonde, says an additional five hundred officers will be on standby to maintain law and order.

The petition has been presented to the supreme court by the opposition Patriotic Front, which is asking the Court to recount the 2008 Presidental ballots.

Mr. Kabonde told journalists in Lusaka that the Police will not tolerate disorderly conduct around the High Court premises during and after the ruling.

And Mr. Kabonde disclosed that the Police service has increased rewards to people who give up illegal firearms.

The amount has gone up from two hundred thousand Kwacha to three hundred thousand Kwacha.

He said 76 million Kwacha has been set aside for the exercise,this year.

The Zambia police service has collected over four hundred illegal firearms in two years and will destroy them during the course of the year.

  1. It means they know that PF has lost the petition. The end of undereducated Sata’s poltical career due to PF (Poor Finishing). And anyway, its good riddance, we do not need his type of politics – too destructive in many ways.

  2. 500 Police Officers to be deployed at high Court? The number is too much 200 hundred officers maybe enough. I know Sata has already lost the petition.

  3. Known already of the outcome. Please maintain law and order. Some us have seen the way people in other places are suffering due to lack of peace. What you have is precious

  4. Do they think RB can leave that position even if they won the petition.He`s way too busy enjoying being a tourist across africa.I wonderwhen he`ll finally sit down to perform his duties.God save us!

  5. “The Zambia police service has collected over four hundred illegal firearms in two years and will destroy them during the course of the year.”

    Great move Zambia Police Service now and not Force! Does the Undereducate have licenses for the guns he declared during last year’s Presidntial by-election nominations? I am curious as the man is a former policeman who could have abused his office to acquire such dangerous munitions.

    Please, ZP do a check for on on this.

    As for the PF/Undereducate political party cadres please deal with them accordingly this day. I hope they will not be overly drunk to make annoying noise at the High Court buildings.

  6. 12, Maestro – PF losing the case will have no positve bearing on your ‘overeducate’ HH. Like it or not Sata is a more seasoned politcian than the whole opposition bunch and MMD.

    UPND is a regional party, TONGA, and will never rule Zambia unless they resolve this dirty identity about them. Mazoka had two vice Presidents, Sikota and Sichinga, and after his death the tongas insisted that the leader had to be Tonga; come HH.

    Your party has never refuted this and the Zambian people will never trust you with power!

  7. Clearly based on the fact that they have already been informed of the verdict. Isn’t our court system beautiful? What a circus!!

  8. #14, don’t talk about tribalism – we don’t need it. Talk about how PF or whatever party you support can help develop Zambia. I don’t see tribalism as an issue when I deal with people because I know most of the people who have helped shape my life are not from my tribe, country or race. Wake up and embrace globalisation. It means more than you think.

  9. #12 Maestro is another sad chap with nothing to do on earth but blog since he has a computer or the internet cafe is just round the corner. This blog now is full of saddists. Educated people don’t even beat their own drums. And who said being educated means absolute perform and know all?

  10. #14 Dark Knight, you are just waisting your time on !d!0ts such as #12. Just discuss other worthy beings rather than these so called overeducated people.

  11. #17 I am not a tribalist, you must be new here otherwise you will know that Maestro is anti-Bemba and pro-Tonga through and through. Tongas themselves insisted that the Prez must be a Tonga, how does that make me a tribalist?

  12. #21 Peter, I agree but sometimes this guy gets on my nerves. He claims to be a space scientist but is always blogging, what time does he work?

  13. Sata Shud accept & respect the outcome.
    Come 2011 Zambia need new blood. For the sake of mother
    Zambia Pliz RB & Movement for mad dogs mmd do not rig the elections

  14. Very good, bring news !! It has been very boring on LT & Zambia anyway… This RB is a sleepy farmer, even LPM was more interesting. Sata is back with entertainment, na bola tukawina

  15. World over thugs are systemically lendered into lifeless barking rhetorical dogs which ba Sata has become.Eventually they are crashed and that is the development today.He can rant and and fantasise some kaponya here, but Sata will never ever become President of Zambia.I realised this last year.Fi MMD and the Zambian public will never let that happen on their watch.I just learnt that the man is uneducated, worser tribalist,disgraced liar and perenial thief KK has repetedly forewarned us against risking with.Even Chiluba could not risk the country with him.Only f-o-o-ls cheerlead his tales.

  16. How can zambian people have a president with eyes red as if
    his head was brewed in Kacasu? Eyes red, that guy Sata is
    a Marijuana smoker like Chiluba.

  17. I read some of the Anti Sata comments and wonder whether the so called learned colleagues blogging here have any education of what Zambia is really like today. In the absence of Sata, you may well forget about the so called ZED of yours because Zambia would be the bungling MMD (UNIP) state. Much of the LT readers have lost focus of what the future for this country looks like without PF. You may as well decide to stay in the diaspora. Long live the opposition.

  18. 32. Zambia Prophet

    You and your personality cult thinking is cursed beyond self redemption.When did Sata became the efaliable one to Zambia-the beginning and the end of our nation-state?

  19. Zambia is now a democracy he has always fought against. We have constitutionalism which he belabored to crush as usual for personal interest with his third term insanity. We have evolving intra-party democratic presidential politics where other parties are entrenched in mandated leadership against which he resists to undergo due to his phobia behavior for functional democracy strong in Zambia.9 years no elections and people mandate with 4 defeats on his heads as if no one can make a try.

  20. Ka Chewe,

    Ulikwi? You call yourself a registered thug for Sata.This is the time he needs your thuggery role than the 24/7 demensia rhetoric you spill here without a life.Its not your blogging rubbish matters but thuggery on the Ground to prove your better or worse support.

  21. Kuku

    Who is there for Zambians right now apart from Michael Sata. Let’s talk about deeds and not wishes. Give me a man who has stood up for Zambia in this dispensation, not dreams. Name one who can be counted right now, apart from Fr Bwalya, Pastor Chiluba and a Given Lubinda. The rest are snoozing away while the country is on its way to a one party state. Be real. It’s not those that say ‘hear, hear’ from the ivory towers that count. Zambia is in short supply of real men. I wish you were one.

  22. #36 Zambian prohet.
    you are right but there is HH also who is he speaking for i wonder? His cause is it not for the zed pipo?

  23. Pankwa

    For HH I am not sure what his strategy is really like. He is not proactive on issues. I for one would have loved a more active HH but so far I find him rather reserved, almost as though he expects things to serve themselves before him. Also, he has to do something about the perceived ‘tribalist’ tendency he has. He is not tribalist I know that, but he has not managed to reorganise his party to reflect a truly neutral mix. I wonder what he needs to do to escape this image for 2011. He may have to change his group of followers to a more mixed society. Yes HH is one of them but could do better by being more interested in issues affecting non tongas as a way to demonstrate this.

  24. Pankwa

    This has been a topic of my research. That is why when you really look into look of looks, we need a leader. It could be you. We need a guy who will disregard all the chaff and move us all into the new dimension.

  25. Next appeal judgement, it will be the whole army that will be deployed. All these policemen would help to keep the town centre of Lusaka peacefu.

  26. pawato wants to rule over the land of Zambia,well maybe in the next elections.but we all know this petition is just a waste of time

  27. #1 Intel. Why do you hate Sata? You think if MMD lost they would behave differently? No. All political parties in Zambia have ruffians in their ranks thats why a self respecting gentleman like my self would not get involved with any party. Any way who are the police going to protect? Your guess is as good as mine

  28. The same nonsense again…why provide for such in the Law if it will never work? Its just a waste of time and money. The new constitution (if at all it comes around) should make these things clear and binding! twanaka…every election will be followed by a petition? [-(**==

  29. # 32 spot on. Zed will be milked without PF. UPND is in deep sleep, coma. This Acting Inspector general of Police, unless he is privy of the ruling, how can he be threatening PF in advance?? Suddenly he has marshalled 500 police with another 500 in reserve. when there is crime in our neibourhood, the police dont respond giving shortage of manpower as reason.We know he is acting & trying to impress NyamaSoya.Other day threatening whistle blowers saying there is no such thing. But if it’s ruling party breaking the law, he keeps quite.Arrest Dora for abuse of offfice. Atase.

  30. #47 Deja Vu ask Intelligentia nonsense.I also fail to understand some of these creatures.It seems some of these chickens were born with abnormalities in their heads.And that makes them hate Sata for no proper reasons.The creatures whenever they open their mouth whatever they say is rotten and their breath just pollutes the air.

  31. It is not easy for the opposition to win a petition/election. Free advise to PF and UPND, Come 2011 make one party for you to win and save Zed.

    As for today’s petition, Tapali icesu.

  32. its true police hve already been deployed in large numbers around the high/ supreme court premises. i want clarify that actually thee is no ruling due from the supreme court. the police in there statement announcing the deployment of extra police have created an impression that a ruling on the petition is due.

    The main case of the petition has not even started. the court was only dealing with preliminary issues.

  33. Am sure u now know why RB he failed to choose a justice minister in the first place? Red Lips (Kunda) is a smooth operator.

  34. Why not sale the firearms to raise money for the poor in society .the arms can be sold outside the country.That worthness is over K250 million which can go along way even for drugs in hospitals or educational books for children or a youth agriculture project.

    Lets be postive in our approach in doing things and move forward. 😕

  35. 41. stripper paka pole

    Morning to you Stripper!!

    Yes its morning in Germany and Zed !!

    So I wish you a good night ku states!! Or rather work well :d

  36. #58 Please don’t rob any bank. I wish I could take you on a tour of Chimbokaila prison. I’m sure you’d think twice about getting into such trouble.

  37. A lot of bloggers comment fall below critical analyses.Your comments about sata are very personal to say the least.Sata has in history of zed politics more support than any other opposition leader.The whole of Lusaka as a city is PF,copperbelt is sata,s,nothern,luapula and most parts of central.Some of you so called educated fellas can’t even garner a vote in your own communities.Atleast sata has presented his agenda for Zambia,perceived or real is left for public consumption.Tell us what you can do better instead of naively saying,sata won’t be president of Zed.The man for God’s sake lost by 35,000 votes,the smallest marginal presidential loss in Zambia’s history.

  38. Lets be honest with ourselves we all know the out come. why provide for such a collossal number of police officers if the decision will please the majority? 2011 is is the only sure bet.

  39. Rather than display,emotional fragility,lets analyse sata with facts.The man has a rich CV,not academically but in terms of his political career.He was third in hierachy in Chiluba’s regime.Today,he is the biggest opposition leader.His campaign strategies appeal to the masses.Being educated without having a direct connection with the economic harsh realities that the masses face amounts to nothing but political fantasy.Even,KK,Chiluba and them have publicly confessed that sata is a hard worker.He stands on the podium and outlines what he has done and achieved as minister.Chiluba didn’t choose sata coz he wanted a puppet in levy,but he got a shock of his life.

  40. The large number of combat police officers to be deployed at the Supreme Court will just incite PF cadres into provoking the police officers who equally get excited and jump on every opportunity to engage the cadres. Its unfortunate that each time agrived parties resort for redress in courts of law. The other arm of GRZ is there to cause trouble. Ba Franklin Kabondola, in this modern age do you need force to control political cadres of PF by using force? We are all Zambians and need protection from the same police service you are heading.I ve just realised that former IG was more professional in his approach. Its is your duty to ensure that every Zambian and their properties are protected

  41. Imwe pipo just deploy them somewhere so that they can continue performing there duties nicely.Ifyo ifyakubabika pa high court ma rubbish.And why are the opposition waisting Rupiah when they know that the ruling will be in favour of the Current president.Ala bane tatwasekelamo bonse but I think you are just waisting your money,time,energy and Nzeru on this matter.

  42. Let the loffing officers attain experience.some police officers pa ZD are lofers.some join the force to indulge themselves in criminal activties and hid in the police uniform for imunity.We already know the outcome yet some boot leaker cop wants to prove he is working by deploying such a #.Remember There was Mateo phiri who backed the loudest on such issues.Only Time will tell

  43. Maestro you are black skull of the moderate Tongas who believe in togetherness and living side by side with others. Your education you talk about was born out of chance coz you spent your childhood looking after cattles in a remote village. Well educated contributors on this blog do not talk or boast about their education.
    The people you call uneducated are those who actually vote. You call your own people names. Just wonder what type govt your HH can form ? Not enclusive without respect for humanity I think that is the type of govt. People with shallow mind like you make pipo think HH is a bad guy coz of your bush mentality compounded with boarderline personality.learn to respect others

  44. The Police batons are dripping with zeal eager to taste the flesh of PF thugs who are a natural nuisance. Will their luck prove true again then I wish I would also have a baton specifically for the head of Chitonfwa himself.

  45. Iwe # 1, you ve made me =))ati PF (poor finishing), to me it looks like a predetermined judgment. Like I always say that Sata is just reaping what he was sowing because when he was in FTJ’s admin he made sure that Zambia was a police state and carders were on top of things. Too bad, this should save as a warning even to those in GRZ right now. Lets do things for the benefit of all Zambians regardless of who is in opposition or Government. If it’s in the interest of the Republic let it be implemented. God bless Zambia and the land of Israel.

  46. Well done PF!!!!!! Atlease the police will work today and we’ll have something to talk about. I didnt know we had so many cops in Lusaka, but why so much crime?

  47. Intelligentia i wonder if you when given a chance to stand before the zambian people and presented your vision for the country, if you can manage even manage to attract two coc-roches,learn to be objective in your comments and not imitate the activities that an empty tin can undergo if dropped on concrete

  48. #77 At night when you are being attacked in Chibolya, they say they aint gat no manpower. Manje bachokela kuti bonse aba ba buju ?

  49. Zed and laws, let the courts do it’s work.That is democracy and this is what PF wanted and let us wait for the ruling.
    At first we wanted SATA and PF to go for a petition and now the courts have granted the cause, now we are suspecting the courts to be corrupt?Then we do not know what we are looking for pa Zed and Elections :((

  50. Hello guys,I think by now we have all seen what the najority of zabians were avoiding in RB and therefore prefered SATA.The miners have agreed to stay in the country on condition that govt pecks the USD at ZMK 10000.at the moment the dollar is at 6000. at times like this I’d say yessssss to a MILITARY COUP because I cannot even afford for DSTV, what will the twins watch???

  51. # 17 Am not Tonga but am not of the idea you display your ignorance like that, lets put tribulism aside and embrance onelyness and we will make zambia grow one.

  52. #88

    i concur with you! some of us dont even have children but life is becoming so unbeareable such that we cant even afford to look after ourselves!

  53. #36 Zambian Prophet. Very good observation. That is why I have so much respect for the old man, SATA. If the petition had been presented by one of these small and dwanzy parties, they wouldnt have been so much fuss. The ruling is in Lusaka, mind you, a stonghold for Sata

    I dont want you to be president, Mr Sata, but I want to thank you very much for standing up for the people of Zambia. No other oppositon leader will ever be like you. Even LPM had respect for you.

    I ALWAYS BELIEVE IN FACING FACTS.

  54. If only we had 1 more opposition party that can measure up to Mr. Sata, Zambia could be a very good country. Most times he is a lone voice for the voiceless. I concur with #93 SISTER, though not sure about Sata not being president.Yes the whole Lusaka will be at virtual near standstil, all because of PF, not the fear of violence but the fear of the un-known. MMD has told it’s cadres to clear the streets and not to interfere. Why, the show of POWER by PF on Display.Long live Ba SATA, LONG live PF. LT give us pictures & updates today!!! Not weekend or next Monday, Today!!!!

  55. We are just like headless chickens.We are at the tipping point to a chaotic situation and with little chance of redemption unless we make an emergency brake. The recipe that leads to a failed State in Africa is present in our country. Indeed our plate is brimming with the ingredients. There is a creeping sense of institutional decay. The erosion of State institutions is growing fast and furious. The Inspector General has folded the law books and smiles at criminals. Corruption is endemic.

  56. #60 General. Yes I fail to understand why these people can not accept that Sata is the mostpopular politician in this country. Facts are there; Last election Sata had 683,150 votes against RB’s 718,359. With all resources at his disposal such as OP, Helicopter, endless source of cash + VJ RB should have double what he managed to garnner. Sata was demonised to the ruralite by MMD especially in the western part of the country. This was in addition to lack of campain material. If he is not popular then I dont know what popular means.

  57. #95 Mpangula Mputyu. Out of the 1000 police officers deployed and on standby, 900 are PF. Its not a joke ladies and gentlemen. I am not PF but…..the fever is always there when this man appears. PF still has the power to bring this city to a stand still

    If only, if only we had one more opposition party……..

  58. Sata may loose the petition, but the TRUTH is He won the Election. According to my brother who is working in the office of Rupiya bwezani Banda. Thats why Mr Sata has been advised to petition on 7 provinces, All the best to Mr Sata and the entire Zambia.

  59. People who sing praises for this thieving snake Sata really amaze me. Why can’t people heed the warnings that this guy is dangerous and not fit to rule this beautiful country.

  60. Why I don’t support PF is..there is too much foul language from the supporters eg that one is Tonga, inkoko, amaka ie fighting, support for unknown ie no direction, most but no all cadres of PF lead a hand-to -mouth existence, they don’t like working hard eg producing goods but like endless re-sales ie tomatoe can be handled by more than five middlemen, they think they are ordained to rule Zambia. Never again will they ever rule Zambia we tried them through Chiluba, now we are watching the RB group.

  61. PF cadres return to the land and farm, you will just die of hunger.. no ruling for you. Look at this Kitwe father.. when a goodman Mazoka was dribbled by MMD he did not complain..when a relative Sata lost he ended up in police custudy complaining.

  62. lelo lelo PF! the outcome is already known. Just get up and start all over again. Kuyamba muma yamba bwino manje Poor Finishing. PF die hards, dont hang me, am just poking fun!

  63. Tug of war
    East vs North 2-3
    South vs West 3-2
    North vs South 1-1
    East vs South 2-3
    East vs West 3-2
    North vs West 2-0
    current league talking standing
    North 7
    East 3
    West 0
    South 7

  64. The man on the right in the picture is too old to still be working. You mean there are no younger capable police officers to manage our police service/force.

  65. Sata’s case adjourned to March.There was no need for 500 police officers jst a wate of much needed time and resources.

  66. Hypocrisy at it’s best, 500 men and women to be deployed at the High Court, obviously we will require 5,000 police officers to move in on Dora Siliya as she fails to follow Tender Regulations.
    If I was to ask, how does the Anti Corruption Commission perform its functions? Is Dora above board?

    :-??:-??:-??:-??:-??:-??:-??:-??:-??:-??:-??:-??:-??:-??

  67. Zed police is not security conscious.How do you advertise the number of police to parade at the high court?.Now I know exactly when to stage my bank robbery.:)>-

  68. VIVA PF!!!THOSE TALKING TOO MUCH AGAINST YOU ARE OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY AND WILL NOT EVEN BE THERE TO VOTE FOR THEIR LEADERS .THEY WILL CONTINUE TALKING ABOUT THEIR DEGREES,PHDS EVEN IF NO ONE ASKS THEM ABOUT HOW FAR THEY VE GONE IN EDUCATION.DONT BLOW YOUR OWN TRUMPETS TOO LOUD.TALK ABOUT YOUR OVEREDUCATION WHEN ATTENDING INTERVIEWS AFTERALL ON LT ANYONE CAN HAVE A PHD (NO ONE KNOWS, WE ALL BLOGGING AND CAN SAY ANYTHING ABOUT OURSELVES )

  69. ba Chapi mulelanda kwati nimbutushi ba kalamba!mwaishileko lisa ku zambia ifintu fyalibipa.The fact that you ere reading a news paper on the net doesnt make you see how pipo in Z are suffering.Sata is a very good politian he doesnt go into hiding wen he looses.We love the man cashupafye!

  70. SATA IS ONE OF THE MOST EFFECTIVE LEADERS ZAMBIA HAS EVER PRODUCED.WHETHER IN OPPOSITIN OR IN GOVERNMENT.INFACT SATA SHOULD RECEIVE ALOT OF CREDIT FOR THE GAINS MADE UNDER LEVY BECAUSE OF THE CONSTANT CHECKS NOT THE RUBBISH GOING ON NOW. NO ONE SEEMS TO BE LISTENING.

  71. So this police force is fully staffed enough to go and stand idle at the High Court while the city weary of unending crime???
    Mr Zambian Inspector General do you even have priorities???
    WE would have appreciated if you addressed the journalists on combating crime in Zambia especially in the cities…any way you are not bothered.

  72. I have a strong feeling MMD will rig the elections in 2011, why deploying 500 police men and women and y dont they deploy them in places where there is some robberies.?

    your day is coming teta, mulongoti, and ka vj!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  73. PF is a den of futureless, unproductive and heavily disillusioned thugs.I advise all noble citizens to seize every opportunity to legally build your fortune while thugs are busy peddling bathtubs in market centers and street corner airwaves.After that they go home hoping for a miracle on the table and education fund for their Children.Serious Zambians are preoccupied with mechanics of building a future for their children than gainless fantasy in PF day in day out.Sata at his age has failed to educate a single child out of his loins beyond Grade 10 but drugs addictions.What future can he give the nation whe has zero mark on own family?

  74. There is enough room in hell for corrupt people, the revnd has led the way. We wont sleep until justice is heard. Next week someone is going to jail.

  75. #136 Kuku. Do me a favour. Please open your eyes so that you can see to think or go back to the village. We are talking about facts here. We are saying PF is the most popular party. Not even MMD has come close. Not all PF members are thugs. PF members are there in offices working hard.

  76. #136 KUKU I pity your luck of information. I am of sound education and I fully support PF and what Sata stands for. What have you, the so called educated who build your fortune legally done about all the theft that has occured in govt? so many political leaders have gone to jail and more are still going while you the educated lot are sleeping and none of you has even tried to put a stop to the actual theft, maybe that will give you an idea of why MMD is so scared of the Cobra, because he is capable of uncovering their filth to spit into their thieving eyes.

  77. I dont know if Kabonde was born before 1986 otherwise he should have known that even deploying the entire Zambia Army can not scare Zambians. It is just that now people are not very angry, but there is a real cause this man will see how a brave an angry Zambian can be. I wouldnt be in his jombos

  78. 139. SISTER,
    I candidly understand your blind cheerleading of a few thug Sata is born out of incofidence to step in and count yourself a leader.Sata is a thug and PF is a den of thuggery primates.What scientific measure or research methodology you used to ascertain that your boss is the most popular?What is popularity in your understanding? Is it measurable if so how.I have done a lot of real life Research design and methods and can assure you your assumption which a lowest level of knowledge is based on pure fantasy deductions of fellow kaponya deceived with more money in the pocket.No wonder you have become professional loser.Be empiricists with provable measurations otherwise,fantasy.

  79. My own intelligence officers in the field tell me, this case has been pushed to 11th march 2009. Any Blogger in Lusaka who has the full detaisl what transpired to push the case to 11th march???

    NyamaSoya is playing with our lives. we ned to kick him out of that seat, Zambia is not his but for the citizens,and currently he is taking us into the ditch with all of us eyes open. PF, Civil Society, UPND in a coma wake up, Churches, lets unite for the common good. Kwacha K5700 to US Dollar scandles and now this!!!! We too docile as Zambians even a Goat can rule over us & accept!!!

  80. **==**==

    #36.
    You are a false prophet. Hell is waiting for you. Sata was once labour minister and did nothing to change our labour laws. He is no worse than Mugabe. in his time there was chorela that claimed 587 lives on the copperbelt (1992/93) somewhere there. Local govt and started issuing land which is not serviced (chalala, kamwala south,Misisi compound, john laing, Kanyama no roads, no water,all sheet. SATA = MADNESS.

  81. 141. m’make mpundu,

    You are another fantasised cheerleader of fellow thug Sata haah? Join me in establishing leadership in yourself that is emerging to fill the gap the challenges of age and time are pushing on us.I have no doubt that you know very little about sata than me.That embecile is the most useless primate that has ever been overlooked by time.Cheerleading useless Sata will not add value to your place in the leadership domain in the making.He belongs to fellow thugs like willie Nsanda,Mwila,GBM Geoffrey Mwamba,Kambwili,Mumbi,Jane Kapata, Joyce Nonde and Timothy Walamba.Do is some symmetrics characteristics?

  82. I salute PF supporters(even though I am not one)for putting up a stand against this worst leadership since independence.
    To all those calling themselves ‘educated’ what have you got to show for it?Education does not mean cyber-arrogance!

  83. #112, this case is still at preliminary stage. Pf was asked to bring evidence of why the courts should order a recount. this evidence has not yet reached the court, therefore no ruling can come forth. I was shocked to hear of the ruling today. this is the position.

  84. m’make mpundu]

    SATA is only popular among a certain specific type of people for his talk. He is the worst kind of person to have as President. It is no bother among his group that no elections within his party have taken place and yet still, they regard him as a good leader.

    The simple exercise of democracy is unknown in PF and yet followers of SATA believe that such a person will bring about progress in the nation.

    The failure to deal with these basic things is proof of serious bigotry in PF.

  85. #136.Kuku, I pity you. Hate Sata or love him, with his humble education he has been a voice of the voiceless, talked sense and has a beta vison than SoyaNyama. The so-called educted ones I dont know who you imply.In Zambia the areas where you find a high concentration of educted Zambians, is Copperbelt & Lusaka. In rural areas you find few due to no Industries nor Jobs. Now check the afluent suburbs and ask yourself who is the councillors in those areas? PF. So who did the educated vote for???

  86. **==**==

    #69
    500 POLICEMEN. Yes because PF chaps are thugs. I dont think there was any theft in the town centre because all the thievs had gone to High court grounds. No wonder why Kabonde sent the 500 saviours.
    #141 ka m’make mpundu.
    dont boast. educated and learned are two different things. we know you are of sound education but not learned. no wonder you support blindly. shame

  87. Mpangula Mputyu

    It seems docility to you means ‘not reacting in such a way as to meet your expectations’. It appears that you have a different understanding of what docility is. I know of people who think that not to steal when opportunity avails is docility. That cheating is only a crime when caught. Is this your understanding?

  88. 146. Mpangula Mputyu,
    Stop insulting Zambians for ignoring your Sata.Because you are empirically a wasted course ignoramus daily cheerleading a fellow thug Sata in your fantasy world of illusions, that doesn’t qualify you to generalize your deficiencies on the citizenry.Zambians are smart and pragmatic.They are rationalists ever forward looking than risking their future with a useless lying gong uneducated and unfit for executive office embecile.This is not an age of thuggery but Political-Economy and decision sciences.You talk of common good which you have no clue about.What do you understand by common good? Sata is fantasy isn’t synonymous with the Common Good.

  89. KUKU and ANONYMOUS, I still dont see any constructive criticism in your words apart from your personal attack on a man that keeps a whole govt sweating for 365days!!you ask why I support Sata, what other option is there? KUKU who are you cheerleading and what do you have to show for it,I’ve told you the leader I support and what I have to show for it, all the minions are scared of him.if it were in my leader’s realm,Dora would have lost her job by now! but look at how RB, the leader for the educated is handling all these issues in his slumber.your anger and disgust for Sata just shows all of us what heat you supporters of thieves would feel in Sata’s world. I rest my case.

  90. Start looking at yourselves as alternative leaders instead of pushing useless primates like Sata on a pragmatic, forward looking hardworking and sober citizenry that has established itself with dignity and fame.

    Brand yourselves as potential leaders entrenched in the power mechanics for the time.Cheerleading an embecile like Sata is the unpardonable wasted syndicatism.Cheerleading sata is wasted course.

  91. 158. m’make mpundu,

    I’m a self made leader with a rational mind impossible to support fantasy of more money in the pocket without explicated mechanics of that magic money.

    Secondly, your cheerleading fantasy is heartbreaking.Why did late Mwanawasa resign if your sarvior is immortal? What dou know about the Avondale houses,Merzf project and all fired Doctors?

  92. m’make mpundu

    It is of no use to try and reason with you because SATA’s three time loss has had a bad effect on you and you still believe that he is popular. A popular candidate does not lose 3 times and to insist that SATA is popular is to defy logic and simply choose to continue to wonder in fantansy land.

    We have a President who emerged victorius and this FACT does not need defending. The popularity of SATA is only among your type and crew who are to demented to accept reality.

  93. KUKU pick on a leader that you can support with something to show for it, I consider you to be a dreamer who copies and pastes big words that you dont clearly understand. at the moment all bloggers are discussing current leaders and analysing the current situation in the country, while you are busy attackin Sata and offerin advice that wont count. wake up

  94. KUKU #159, 157, U REMIND ME OF SOMEONE LEARNING HOW TO SHOOT! YES WE ZAMBIANS MUST LOOK INTO OURSELVES TO TAKE OVER, THE YOUNGER TURKS. BUT ZAMBIANS ARE A COWARD LOT THATS WHY SO MANY WRONGS HAVE TAKEN PLACE, SATA TALKS FOR US, BECAUSE YOU AND ME CANT! WE HAVE ALLOWED NYAMASOYA TO TAKE OVER BONSE TULI ZEE…THINGS GOING FROM BAD TO WORSE UNDER SOYANYAMA’S REGIME.THE BEST IS REGIME CHANGE. THERE IS NO ALTENATIVE COMING FORWARD BETA, I MEAN BETA THAN M. SATA IN TERMS OF TAKING THE COUNTRY FORWARD, NAME ANY I CHALLENGE U!! IF U NOT IN ZAMBIA AT THE MOMENT THEN YOU DONT KNOW WHATS HAPPENING. A GOAT CAN RULE OVER US & IN OUR CURRENT FORM WE CAN ACCEPT!!!WE DOCILE BEINGS

  95. m’make mpundu

    You are completely offside there when you say we cant discuss SATA under this thread. The cause of this case and the reason for deploying this number of police is entirely as a result of SATA’s not accepting results inspite of all channels and facillities declaring a free and fair election.

    Obviously SATA has right to challenge any one for whatever cause thru the courts but for all fairness reason must prevail and SATA is entirely unreasonable in as far as facts on the ground are concerned. SATA is known for his public nuisance and thus the deployment of this contigent.

  96. 156. UILO, DOCILITY IS NOT WHAT YOU HAVE IMPLIED. YOU HAVE DEFINED IT ALL WRONG, WE ZAMBIANS ARE A SPECIAL BREED OF DOCILE HUMAN BEINGS! WE LET THINGS MOVE FROM BAD TO WORSE WITH OUR OWN EYES OPEN. SEE HOW IT TOOK TO GET RID OF K.K, SEE HOW CHILUBA PLUNDERED, SEE HOW NYAMASOYA IS MESSING UP THIS COUNTRY. UNTIL IT IS DOWN TO IT’S KNEES.MAYBE BECAUSE ALL THE TRIBES IN ZAMBIA RUN AWAY FROM WHERE THEY CAME FROM WITHOUT A FIGHT, WE HAVE THAT SPECIAL COWARD GENE. WE NEED TO LEARN TO TAKE GOVT., TO TASK TO DO THE RIGHT THINGS INCLUDING SOYANYAMAS REGIME.

  97. Ka Kuku where did you originate from? Because creature like you are not supposed to be found amoung normal human beings.Your heart is full of filthy and hatred against innocent Sata.You just have a chi big head which is full of nothing. You were born without an umbilical cord.

  98. #163 Mpangula Mputyu

    You have such an unusual over estimation of SATA’s capabillity at the same time such an inadquate view of yourself and you want to believe that the Zambian society should join in your worship of SATA.

    You are clearly hero worshipping SATA and thus you entirely empty yourself for this deed. Let this worship of SATA stay with you and dont even attempt to uncunningly invite others to join you.

  99. 162. m’make mpundu & 163. Mpangula Mputyu

    You are futureless thugs misapplying your lives for a fellow futureless thug.I have candidly asked you Why did late Mwanawasa resign if your sarvior is immortal? What do you know about the Avondale houses,Merzf project and all fired Doctors?

    Give me the mechanics of more money in the pocket in 90 days, Universities in every Chiefdom in 90 days, referal Hospital every other 100 KM distance all in 90 days.You buy that rubbish because you a fantasised ignoramus.Dont expect to stoop that low.

  100. KUKU where are you from,I’ll tell to wake up again. Sata is known for standing for the truth that you people hate to know. If the elections where free and fair and if MMD is confident of their victory then why would they worry about Sata’s reaction over a false rulling??? think my dear,you people claim that Sata is only popupar to hooligans, well he got most votes from towns that have good access to the media,and your current govt claims to have won from votes from villagers.who is worse and where does education, class and hooliganism come in?? I dont think you and I are on the same page here

  101. Mpangula Mputyu

    You have the audacity to show forth your worshipping of SATA and you careless that you do this in view of all! Your view of matters concerning SATA are completely out of reality and you even show how blinded you are about SATA.

    This is an amazing display of blind loyalty and bigotry only associated with cults.

  102. 167. Chewe the Virgin,

    Bring logical arguments from the rationalist world view not your demensia here.I’m a realist with strong inclination to logical analysis.Maybe you can justify post below from economic reasoning:

    Give me the mechanics of more money in the pocket in 90 days, Universities in every Chiefdom in 90 days, referal Hospital every other 100 KM distance all in 90 days.You buy that rubbish because you a fantasised ignoramus.Dont expect to stoop that low.

  103. 167. Chewe the Virgin,

    Your feedback to # 172 will reveal your brain power or emptiness.Command on issues or stranded thug in the diaspora by default which i long believed you are.

  104. Mpangula Mputyu

    Now it does explain why PF followers dont explain or see the fault of not having conventions within their system. What SATA pronouces is ‘gospel truth’ and anyone challenging it is declared anathema.

    In all reasonableness, how is it that SATA has managed to have a grip on such a strange lot of followers.

  105. 170. m’make mpundu & Mpangula Mputyu,

    Your blind worship of that Primate called Sata has turned you into availabled devil worshippers period.You have no future under the sun.

  106. Useless things like Kuku,Maestro, Chapi,Intelligentia and free market nonsense.If these things were to form their own political party,i doubt if they can even pull 2 flies as part of their crowd.Maybe just pulling them because of their stinking rantings.And yet they want to be saying rubbish against the man(Sata)who has managed to pull even very educated and respected people to himself.So much support from people of all walks of life.You failures.

  107. Mpangula Mputyu

    Hold that view to yourself and dont attempt to extend that to the entire nation. Agillity and unsettledness of mind is common among the lessor species. Incapacity to reason and choose the best available options are your failures. You are the type that will not even blink twice given an opportunity to perform a devious deed.

    Confusion at the expense of peace is your preference and not to have fracas for you is to be docile.

  108. You guys insulting Sata here are indirectly insulting the Zambian people, look at the past two general elections and numerous bye elections you will see that he is the most popular politician in Zambia; like him or not that’s a fact.

    Sinking your head in that dirty sand and hoping the opposite is true will not change the truth.

  109. Dark Knight

    You fall squarely in the same category of your fellow Mpangula Mputyu. You clearly refuse to see that SATA is not as popular as you fantasize him to be.

    The fellow has failed and lost for now three (3)! times and you still shout his is more popular. This is despite the fact he is heading a one man show party with no democratic structures and practice.

    The number od people who loathe SATA are far greater than those that worship him and proof of this is his three(3) time losses.

  110. Let him stand again in 2011 if chance will allow and he will lose again. This time he will not just be buried, we will incinerate him as someelse said.

  111. When a highly notorious criminal is being paraded, the chances are that a sizable crowd will assemble to have a glimpse of him, over an above the increased reinforcements of the police.

    To suggest that the criminal is popular just because a sizable amount of people turn up is both true and false depending on which angle you see the issue from.

    Popular maybe for his notoriety, infamously so. But this negative popularity which is akin to SATA. The insurmountable number protests from good people provoked by any item covering SATA is enough evidence.

  112. #184 UILO,

    MMD won the elections, even Chama Chakomboka would have won if they fielded him and used state funds and machinery. The last person who won elections in Zambia mostly due to his appeal and not just his party or state tricks was FTJ!

  113. 71. Pafwenamwine greetings and thanks for your self-deceived opinion. On “Maestro you are black skull of the moderate Tongas who believe in togetherness and living side by side with others. Your education you talk about was born out of chance coz you spent your childhood looking after cattles in a remote village. Well educated contributors on this blog do not talk or boast about their education.” I don’t boast but rather I JUST WRITE the TRUTH about myself.
    Why should my CV be confidential? What do I have to hide? My friend, Information and true information is POWER and stop leaving in self-deception and put up your CV on LT if you can. Trying to throw mad at me wont help you in any way.

  114. 189. Maestro Hhehhehhehhe continued.
    71. Pafwenamwine, on “The people you call uneducated are those who actually vote. You call your own people names. Just wonder what type govt your HH can form ? Not enclusive without respect for humanity I think that is the type of govt. People with shallow mind like you make pipo think HH is a bad guy coz of your bush mentality compounded with boarderline personality.learn to respect others”, I am surprised at your ignorance!

    The only people I referred to as “undereducate” and not ‘undereducated’ are PF Leader Mr Michael Chilufya Sata and Mr FTJ Chiluba (Hon. Doc., Malawi). So your accusation is misplaced.

  115. 190. Maestro Hhehhehhehhe continued.
    So what do you mean?
    On “Just wonder what type govt your HH can form ? Not enclusive without respect for humanity I think that is the type of govt.” I am glad you wrote that YOU THINK meaning that it is your mental illusion because you do not have proof. Wait until you will see what will happen if it will in your lifetime.
    On “People with shallow mind like you make pipo think HH is a bad guy coz of your bush mentality compounded with boarderline personality.learn to respect others” I am not related to HH neither do I hold UPND pol. party membership! So this is nonsense from you.
    Having written all that, what “learn to respect others” do u mean?

  116. 14. Dark Knight greetings. Your “12, Maestro – PF losing the case will have no positve bearing on your ‘overeducate’ HH. Like it or not Sata is a more seasoned politcian than the whole opposition bunch and MMD.” is just your personal OPINION.

    If the Undereducate was “a more seasoned polit[i]cian than the whole opposition bunch and MMD” why has he been losing presidential elections for now the 3rd time in a row?

    The simple answer is that Mr Michael Chilufya Sata is an undereducate and he always reaps what he has sown as the Holy Bible suggests that “you reap what you sow”.

  117. 192. Maestro Hhehhehhehhe continued.

    On “UPND is a regional party, TONGA, and will never rule Zambia unless they resolve this dirty identity about them. Mazoka had two vice Presidents, Sikota and Sichinga, and after his death the tongas insisted that the leader had to be Tonga; come HH.

    Your party has never refuted this and the Zambian people will never trust you with power!”

    Firstly, I do not own the mighty UPND! Secondly, I am not a member of the UPND. Thirdly, the UPND operates according to their set rules and regulations. So if you can’t beat them join them. Otherwise, shut up on their activities or continue having sleepless nights depending on your choice.

  118. 19. Peter greetings. On your “#12 Maestro is another sad chap with nothing to do on earth but blog since he has a computer or the internet cafe is just round the corner. This blog now is full of saddists. Educated people don’t even beat their own drums. And who said being educated means absolute perform and know all?” I respect your opinion!

    However, I am enjoying the TRUTH about me. I will also continue giving out my CV as I do not have anything to hide.

  119. 23. Dark Knight. Funny how you tribal characters want to paint people like me as “#17 I am not a tribalist, you must be new here otherwise you will know that Maestro is anti-Bemba and pro-Tonga through and through. Tongas themselves insisted that the Prez must be a Tonga, how does that make me a tribalist?”.

    However, any normal person, Zambian or non-Zambian will notice that in all my postings above, I have not mentioned any one’s tribe. My first posting on #12 has nothing to do with me being pro-Tonga or the accusation that I am anti-Bemba. However, I take pride that I am a REAL TONGA person. I believe in all men a equal in the eyes of God, our Creator. I have thus ever championed

  120. 195. Maestro Hhehhehhehhe continued.

    I have thus ever championed that “One Zambia, One Nation” slogan of the former President KK era.

    If you are an undereducate too bad for you, but it is not too late to improve your status for the MMD GRZ is now offering free education for all Zambians. However, the Undereducate in all my postings refers to the PF leader Michael Chilufya Sata for the reason that he called UPND president HH as Underfive and also calls others as ng’wang’wazi who can’t convince UNZA people (see one of the recent POST Newspapers).

  121. 24. Dark Knight, you wrote “#21 Peter, I agree but sometimes this guy gets on my nerves. He claims to be a space scientist but is always blogging, what time does he work?” and I will simply ask you to mind your own business.

    If I know how to manage my study time, why is it your concern? Your tribalism which you have exhibited by bring tribe issues will never take you anywhere my fellow Citizen, World or Zambian.

  122. Reading the many insults against people who have opposing views to Sata, I wish to put up a clear case for the intellectuals.
    When I criticise an educated person, his immediate reaction is not that i hate him/her. It is why am I being criticised. If I criticise Sata, you the illiterates thinjk I hate him but none of you has ever asked why I criticise. Isn’t that an essential ingredient to problem solving? No wonder PF has lost three consecutive elections without any meaningful postmortem because the illiterates (mostly PF cadres) are incapable of it. Abash illiteracy and long live the intellectuals. If yuou think education is expensive try ignorance and Sata will tell you its full cost.

  123. #198 and #197 being educated does not in anyway mean having titles and titles.
    From my analysis Mr Sata has the ability of interpreting his knowledge into practice compared to this current leadership.
    I for one am disgusted with our parroting politicians who don’t deliver anything.
    I don’t necessarily worry so much about what educational degree someone has acquired as long as UTH and other general hospitals are up and running not when you hear that premature babies died as a result of power failure.

  124. #200 Kuku I think you lack analytical skills.There are good PF supporters just as there bad ones.I find people like Given alright and promising.

  125. Sata is not a leader. He could be a good foreman. The reason being that he is not a strategic thinker. He pushes and shouts and there is no room for shouting and pushing at the staregic level. If you want to know the difference between a strategic thinker and a foreman, visit Rwanda and stay near state house on a Wednesday and listen to Paul Kagame explaining his vision. The man is a strategic thinker. But listening to your Sata, I have never heard any real visionary pronouncements from his loud mouth. Its all comedy and sattire. The man is a clown.

  126. 200. Hola!, I respect your opinion and learn to respect other’s opinions.

    Why is this simple thing difficult for PF/Undereducate political party cadres? Is it because they are dull like there self-appointed leader, who showed us Zambians and the whole world that he doesn’t understand the Zambian Constitution on the Presidency, dissolution of the National Assembly and by-elections when the man served in the Parliament that ammended the constitution to block former President KK from participating in the 1996 presidential and general elections?

    If PF cadres are dull, this doesn’t mean that all Zambians like me are dull too! So, learn to appreciate other people’s opinions. OK!

  127. #203 I do respect other people’s opinion-don’t get me wrong.But for one to judge the entire PF wrong is what I find difficult to accept.
    MMD has become so corrupt that they think they can get away with anything.They rigged Mazoka’s election then PF’s and we cannot just sit and watch them like that.
    For now the only strongest oposition we have is PF and even though I am not PF I want this Govt to be accountable right from the elections.
    You and I can debate the whole night about the most educated politician but do you kow how many people are dying for lack of medical treatment in Zambia?

  128. #202. The Real Deal greetings. You have hammered the nail on its head!

    The Undereducate thrives on nothing but deception of dull minds.

    Unfortunately, many tribalists see sense in useless talk the old man vents outs. I was just shocked to read some Dark-night character referring to tribe on #14 and also accusing me on #23 just because I hold the Undereducate in his own real status.

    He even tries to link me to the mighty UPND just because I am a TONGA person by tribe. My surprise is that why should I support a Bemba-Undereducate when he sent thugs to machete my fellow Bemba and other Zambians in Chawama just to prove that I’m non-tribal since I’m Tonga by tribe? Very sad indeed!

  129. 204. Hola! thanks, but who is judging the whole PF/Undereducate political party to be wrong following your “#203 I do respect other people’s opinion-don’t get me wrong.But for one to judge the entire PF wrong is what I find difficult to accept”?

    Please, be honest and I need your response to this question!

  130. Well it’s not possible for me to take down all the names calling all PF thugs and undereducated just as I do not agree that UNDP is entirely tribal.
    I wouldn’t care less about party politics now as long as those vulnerable citizens of ours have a voice.
    You and I (and most bloggers) have lost touch of the realities in Zambia.I have the choice of what to eat or wear where as in Zambia,it is a matter of what are we going to eat?

    #202 Paul Kagame has been a partaker of what is going on in the DRC so I have no commets ther.

  131. 207. Hola!. On “Well it’s not possible for me to take down all the names calling all PF thugs and undereducated just as I do not agree that UNDP [sic: UPND for the United Party for National Development] is entirely tribal”, I understand your position now.
    It is really important for bloggers to avoid being emotional, but read and understand what their fellow bloggers are putting across in context.
    The sad part is that PF/Undereducate political party cadres are used to fighting like their Undereducate leader and his MPs – both labelled PF rebel-MPs and non-rebel MPs.
    Whenever PF/Undereducate cadres fail to backup their claims, they resort to calling the mighty UPND as a Tribal Party.

  132. 208 cont’d.
    The most interesting thing is that the same PF/Undereducate cadres who call the UPND as a TRIBAL PARTY are the ones who are advocating for the joining of PF/Undereducate-UPND political parties in a PACT to strengthen the opposition to the MMD GRZ.
    While such may help remove the MMD from power,my belief is that we don’t need such a PACT but just that the PF/Undereducate cadres SHOULD shift camps and join the normal opposition UPND which has a totally NEW U-Team to Zambian politics compared to the failed recycled politician Mr Michael Chilufya Sata/Undereducate. In fact, Mr Undereducate can do Zambia a good service by re-endorsing president HH and honourably retiring from pol..

  133. So let all those PF/Undereducate MPs, both rebel and non-rebel, prepare themselves for a shift to the ONLY sensible opposition political party UPND in 2011 when the National Assembly shall be dissolved.
    This is will be good as the U-Team will hold a UPND Party GENERAL ASSEMBLY to elect new leadership for the following 5 years that will solve all party problems and seek to form a FRESH GRZ that will bring real economic development to Zambia.
    With the support of all Zambians,we can help any then UPND presidential and Parliamentary candidates to form a brand new GRZ in 2011 without a history of characters that sponsored the macheting of fellow Zambians in Lusaka’s Chawama compound,3rd Term,etc.

  134. 207 Hola!, on “You and I (and most bloggers) have lost touch of the realities in Zambia.I have the choice of what to eat or wear where as in Zambia,it is a matter of what are we going to eat?” I disagree with you as people like me were in Zambia last year in August being bashed by the dusty since tar roads are rare.

    So, while some of the foreign based LT bloggers have lost touch with the activities in Zambia, I personally haven’t as I was there recently and also here from my family and friends on what is happening on the ground at home.

    Later and keep well.
