Patriotic Front (PF) in Mpulungu has welcomed expelled MMD

Mpulungu Member of Parliament Lameck Chibombamilimo if he decides to re-contest the Mpulungu seat on the opposition party’s ticket.

A PF source in Mpulungu told ZANIS that Mr Chibombamilimo is welcome to contest on the PF ticket, if the Speaker of the National Assembly declares the Mpulungu seat vacant.

” Mr Chibombamilimo is a Zambian, an indigenous person from Mpulungu for that matter. So there is a general feeling within the party membership that any person as long as they can perform and help in lifting the standards of living for people in these parts, can contest on the PF ticket,” the PF source revealed.

He said that the opposition party yesterday held a meeting to discuss political developments in the constituency that has risen following the expulsion of Chibombamilimo from the MMD.

Mr Chibombamilimo and former Science and Technology minister Jonas Shakafuwa were expelled from the ruling MMD on disciplinary grounds. However the expelled duo have sued the MMD seeking the courts declaration that their expulsion from the party was illegal.

The source further revealed that Chibombamilimo will be very easy to market to the voters considering the current developmental projects going on in Mpulungu district.

” As PF, we are aware that he has differed with his party MMD, a situation that has led to his expulsion together with his counterpart Shakafuswa, but you see, the man works hard.

” Just look around, I mean you are the information guys so you can know better than us that he has been fighting for the Mankonga boarding school, the first of its kind in the district which is under construction including the first ever General Hospital that government intends to build,’’ said the PF insider.

He also cited the ongoing transformation of Mbala military air base to a civilian airport and the Kasaba bay development, he said Mr Chibombamilimo started marketing for tourism boosting in the Northern circuit even during the reign of late President Levy Mwanawasa, as some of the developmental initiatives Chibombamilimo must be credited for.

‘’ Now the fruits are beginning to show as evidenced by the billions of kwacha that government has pumped into kasaba bay. We are also aware that he differed with some minister who opposed the tarring of the Kasama – Mpulungu road even when this road had been neglected for a long time.

” But now we have seen how well the rehabilitation works is progressing where even some businessmen have demolished structures in Mpulungu to pave way for construction works, these are the developmental programs we are talking about. So all in all we are saying the man (Mr Chibombamilimo) is a fighter who must be given a chance to continue,’’ the PF source stated.

The source further added that the face of several schools in Mpulungu has drastically changed, a situation he attributed to chibombamilimo’s prudent use of the constituency development fund (CDF).

‘’ So you see, these are the issues and we are saying that he has only been in office for two and half years! This is about one of the best MPs we have had in this place who deserves the support of all well meaning Mpulungu residents because in my view, he has a heart for this place although he is being crucified in some sectors,’’ said the PF member.

But when asked to confirm some of his party members’ feelings, PF Mpulungu District chairman Charles Mazimba said he could not comment on Mr Chibombamilimo but that the grass root is ready to support anybody who the PF’s National highest organ shall adopt in consultation with the party on the ground.

He however warned that MMD must expect a tough challenge if there will be need for a by election saying PF in Mpulungu is now equipped with transport and man power and is capable of mobilizing teams at short notice to reach areas like villages along the shores of lake Tanganyika which were not touched by the party during campaigns for the October 30 presidential by election.

‘in the last elections, MMD beat us by about 800 votes, this time we want to turn the tables and leave the ruling party by 100 meters,’ said the rather elated Mazimba.

Mazimba said PF will patiently wait to see the caliber and charisma of the person MMD will adopt to contest the seat in the impending by election.

  1. Here we go again!! Let the man decide for himself. It is not easy. He may fear being expelled by RB later!! Very testing indeed.

    • Helow their!
      lets just first of all give credibility where it is due.
      The man has proved the capacity of his sinus.
      why then,can we advice him to join the winning team?PF.
      He knows by now that:”he aught to be careful whose advice he should buy,but,patient wth those who supply it. Kwapwa!11

  2. this habit of accepting political trash from other political parties for the sake of winning elections is very retrogressive. that’s why we have the same recycled scum we call politicians running our affairs. when are going t retire people politically for good.

    • You are right! Same old brains will continue rulling us until the coming of the Lord , if we are not careful. The likes of VJ, Jazzman, Sondashi is really sickening.

  3. On “” Mr Chibombamilimo is a Zambian, an indigenous person from Mpulungu for that matter. So there is a general feeling within the party membership that any person as long as they can perform and help in lifting the standards of living for people in these parts, can contest on the PF ticket,” the PF source revealed”, firstly hhe hhe hhe hhe.

    This is real good news. I hope the nicely releasing praising data about Mr Chibombamilimo will support him even if he does not stand on the PF/Undereducate political party ticket. All the best to the PF and Mr Chibombamilimo is particular.

    • i hope the pf source will echo those praises on mr chiboma… should he decide to run on a ticket other than PF!

    • Iwe Chi Maestro wayamba kapoli,Let Mr Chibombamilimo decide for him self.The man is still young and energetic.If he joins PF thats his on liking.Continue studing your airspace fimo fimo.

    • The educated Maestro Hhehhehhehhe,
      do you know anything about Henry Ford?At one time he said that,”an educated man is not necessary, one who has an abundance of general or specialized knowledge.An educated man is one who has developed the faculties of his mind that he may acquire anything he wants,or its equivalent,without violating the rights of others”.Above all, no person has sufficient inclination and intelligence.Hopefully ,this will help you understand why other people you might consider uneducated can be more successful in life.What difference can Chibombamililo can make in PF?

    • I can say Preparions X opportunity = Lucky.By this i mean every person is bound to make it if he is a hard worker and has self confidence.People with without education have made it big time.

    • Maestro, you might be educated but to me you sound like one of those frustrated fellas on the streets. some ‘uneducated’ as you call them have even more important things to do in life than you the ‘educated’ ones, who spend ninty nine persecent of your time on LT because you have nothing else to do. I would rather be an ‘uneducated’ Bill Gates or king Cobra than an educated loser like you anyway.

  4. we need new generation politicians…not always the same politicians. whats the probability that if he joins PF he will b loyal?? find young and fresh politicians. am tired of these old politicians. is it a must that politicians must b above 50?? empower the youths, let them get the experience.

  5. #6&2.1
    you people cliam that you are civilized but i don’t believe you despite am one of the young generations as wel. we should learn to understand our words/comments if we are to become better analizers of other people’s words. i believe its not only the young people we need for the new generation i repeat, ‘NOT YOUNG PEOPLE’ but BRIANS SUITABLE for the new generation no matter how old. if you are still thinking in those lines of miss-using the word, RECYCLED’ in order to suit your own selfish ambitions, then the so called young generation is lost and will never rule this nation. lets use our young brians in both intelligency and wisdom of expience for without history their is no…

    • Ok dear! its not brians but brains papa!! and its claim not cliam! go through your comment and see if its making sense…

    • ANOTHER PRIMITIVE WAY OF REASONING EXPOSED. I GUESS ITS IN THE BLOOD AND CAN’T BE REMOVED. AMENSHI YAKONKA UMUFULO (blood is thicker than water).
      LOVE YOU DEAR!

    • We have had young educated people but when they become politicians and get exposed to easy money they stop thinking. look at educated people like, katele, Eric silwamba, George kunda, derrick chitala, Dora the explorer, etc there contributions were to the political development of this country was very dismal, instead they were swallowed by the cadre mentality. there thinking is no superior than the likes of kamalondo, mpombo, steven bwalya or worse still those women who dance for presidents at the aiport!

  6. there we go again perpetuating political prostitution,mpulungu like any other district in the nation has so many pipo that can deliver.this kind of attitude has much to do with sponsored cadres,hope the party leadership will not dance to such tunes.

    On a light note,yu too look great baby c,for real PF cadres in the picture above look presentable compared to the usual koponya photoes associated with PF,Hahahahahahahaha! viva pa bwatoooooooooooooooo!

  7. What profession is Mr Chibombamilimo if I may ask? It seems like He is a political heavy weight to me.

  8. Apparently, some people never learn.Isnt this same decision which which saw PF end up with the rebel MPs.Are we being told that Zambia and PF in particular is short of leaders who can take over from those who have been before? Bamudala ba Sata should look from within his members who have been loyal to the ideals of the party. Mwebantu bushe kanshi mu Zambia tamwaba abantu bambi?

  9. Political prostitution! Two years ago Chibombamilimo was campaigning on MMD manifesto against PF manifesto. Now that was wrong and he switches sides. Granted that he has the right to change his mind, he will join PF and try to do the same things that he did in MMD (uwa kamsango, taleka) and they will soon be calling him names. He will be treated as an outsider who is not true PF. There must be some gain in politics for some people to stick to it like this. It has nothing to do with service and principles. It is prostitution.

    • Impressive, my sister linked to a very serious PF cadre released data some one week ago or so that Mr Chibombamilimo had joined PF. I am surprised that he has not yet indicated his position although he has now sued the MMD.

      Let us wait and see what will happen. I hope he will defy the logic of people thinking that he will join PF by either standing as an Independent or joining a serious party without links to chasing or having rebel members from its ranks.

      In fact, PF is currently a congregation of rebel and non-rebel MPs with a recycled leader politician who moved from UNIP, spent some time distabilising MMD and now OWNS PF.

      Very interesting undemocratic principles indeed.

  10. Some politicians don’t know when to quit. It’s time to leave the stage and try your hands at something different. If you excavate deep into your mind you will discover a worthwhile project than keep struggling to regain your reputation.

  11. PF adapt him, but caution him to give respect to the party president. he should not cause another by election. All in all i hope he accepts to contest on PF. Iam told that he has sought a court injuntion to restrain him from being expelled, meaning he is still MMD. Food for thought though!!!

  12. Thats politicians for you! Just the other day, he was insulting Sata. Now he is ready to call him “My president”! Where have morals gone to?

    • Its true man….this is not good. We dont need Chibomba in PF. He is so dull and irrational. Ba Sata why Chibomba???? Awe not this person bane.

  13. Chibombamilimo–PF…..shakas UPND we know u guys u were just passing time in MMD esp after the death of LPM …..MHSLIP

  14. Ba LT whats up? Is the info on the site new or what you ‘ve already published on (rewinded to) Thur 12/03/2009.

  15. Go ahead, bro. After all, PF is full of POLITICAL REJECTS AND POLITICAL PROSTITUTES. Are there any fresh ideas in this party? Please, go ahead. You need more such finished products in PF, and then Zambia will go forward…. indeed……

  16. Ba sweetie, point at any political party in zed that has no political rejects and all these that you have mentioned? In fact the party you are calling finished has a better manifesto as compared to the others. We need you also to be in the political field otherwise we will continue to have the same people leading us and jumpimg from one political party to the other like monkeys do from one branch to the other.

  17. Zimandola you are right. Ambuya was a Kaunda’s reject. But all the same, Awe mwandi Bachilamo. Ndiye kuti Kulibe bena banzelu kuMpulungu. Same faces?

    The biggest problem is apathy from “Opunzila”. Who will develop zed if not Opunzila?

  18. You see, thats what politic is and that is what it has been, just about politicking and not about views or beliefs after all they are one and the same, whether in MMD or PF or anywhere it does not matter.
