Local Government Minster Ben Tetamashimba has said President Rupiah Banda is not a danger to the nation and refuted the statement made by Patriotic Front [PF] President Michael Sata that some MMD members of parliament want to impeach the Republican President.
Mr. Tetamashimba said nobody in the MMD party wants to impeach President Banda, adding that there is no division in party. He was speaking in Lusaka today.
The minister challenged the PF leader to mention the names of the people who he claims want to impeach President Banda and also to table the motion to parliament and give reasons for the impeachment of the President.
Mr. Tentamashimba said Mr. Sata is not credible enough to think that President Banda has committed an offence and needs to be impeached.
Meanwhile, Mr. Tentmashimba has said Government will continue to purse all those who stole in president Chiluba‘s government, the late president Mwanawasa’s and president Banda’s government.
He said anybody who does not agree with these investigations should be thought to be a thief with no morals, adding that all the malpractices in the previous governments will be pursed.
Mr. Sata was quoted in the local media as having said that some members of parliament from the MMD want President Rupiah Banda to be impeached because he is a danger to the nation if allowed to continue in office for three years.
ZANIS
How much time of the day does this man spend on lip service? I’m sick and tired of getting sick and tired of him!
Teta motor mouth
Following “Mr. Tetamashimba said nobody in the MMD party wants to impeach President Banda, adding that there is no division in party. He was speaking in Lusaka today“, just wait for the impeachment motion in Parliament and the voting results will show us the certainty of the matter should things go that far.
As for “He said anybody who does not agree with these investigations should be thought to be a thief with no morals, adding that all the malpractices in the previous governments will be pursed“, this is good and please don’t leave out the current President RB Banda Administration as the news item is at variance as in inconsistent.

4 He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
Who is suppose to be the official spokesperson between Teat and Shika? Who doent know that its impossible to bite a finger that feeds you? The impeachment bid is a sheer waste of time and energy.
Teta Motor mouth revs up again. I wonder how much petrol it takes to start his mouth!
Not because I support Mr. Sata but I wouldn’t mind an impeachment in the interest of the nation.
this guy still talking?
The opposition should provide convincing reasons for the impeachment.
ha ha #5 u are funny @ motor mouth !!!!!!!!!! mwati bama pulumuka bakazi bake teta? she should be under bombasa govn
Viva impeachment VIVA VIVA. VIVA some MMD MPs supporting us VIVA.
Could someone please give us a brief background of this man Tetamashimba, I find him very irritating and abnormal and reminds me of UNIP’s William Banda
TetaMushala!!! you are the Mushala of the modern days iwe chimudala!! Lameck Mangani wants RB impeached, do you want another name? or you just want to hear the names from SATA? get real Teta, ulimufyashi……
Even Shikapwasha and Katele wants to see RUpiah Banda impeached, are you in cuckooland tetamashimba? Anyway, as illiterate as Tetamashimba is, even the word impeachment is not understood by him and Dora. I forgive them for they have risen either one’s tongue or one’s bottom respectively. No morals, no real education and no principles. You can imagine, if Sondashi made it, Tetamashimba would be the first one to lick his bottom and pretend to have been supporting him. Even Mrs. Mwanawasa if she became President, Teta would be the first one to say its me who proposed her for the job. I have never seen a man like this one. Even Mpombo who we all thought was useless is more principled that Teta, Mabenga dn Katele mfwiti.
#11, u got a good memory, William Banda was TETA,SHIKA,MULONGOTI&JOSHUA MTISA (of the Chiluba days) put together, that dog!!
I thought Sata talks too much. Oh God I was wrong. If this man talks this much, what time does he have to think? Please Mr. Teta, you are killing yourself over nothing. These are politics. The same people you are attacking and protecting everyday are busy plotting against you. Just know that at one point they will leave you bare, alone and lonely. Look at your brother Mpombo. He exit like he never existed.
# 11, thank you for bringing up William Banda. It is written that he is now Political Adviser to RB. So, William Banda has landed a good job at State House hence the Video we saw RB going after Chibomamilimo and Shakafuswa. That is how William Banda operates. Soon it will be Mpombo being chased around Kafulafuta, then Teta around Solwezi jungles. After that it will Shikapwasha running out the Chisamba, Chibombo farms being hounded by William and Rupiah Bandas.
Ka Teta nako. I don’t understand how so many MPs, even those more intelligent than RB, could allow just one person (RB) to go on with all the corruption, viciousness, disrespectfulness …just about all the bad characteristics one can expect of a leader, to be ruling for so long. 8 months is way too long for a chap like RB who can’t do anything but ruin the nation.
So, all those MPs supporting the impeachment, you earn some respect. Let the foolish ones be driven by RB.
As though he lives in the minds of each and every MMD MP, Tetamalilo is a hopeless chap!
Teta again! Tomorrow it will be Roni Shikamona. Awe nanaka Nine Chale. Same people everyday guys! Guys give us something else please. These two have had more coverage than the president.
I think Sata and his impeachment talk is really trapped in stone age mentality. does he really think the ruling MMD MPs would stand to impeach their President to destroy own party for the sake of making Sata President?
What would be their gain in such when they have all the privileges politics can bring to African ruling party? what would be so special in risking their comfort to a pact that each is coming to the table each with 4 impoverished and power hungry Vice presidents and ministers from each of the pact member camp not ignoring the two Presidents salivating?
Now i understand why MMD is teasing opponents like they are just a bunch of *****s in their eyes.Mazoka had more members in the house than the joint Pact yet Mwanawasa with only 67 MPs won the impeachment. RB has 93 MP with 22 PF rebels and many salivating for carrots that could be at the peril of the acquisition by shushushu’s blank checks if not public loan liabilities blackmail.
And what clause of the constitution would do the miracle for impeachment crusaders? Can some legal scholars here all cadres walk me through to the clause?
I think these weak moves are sinking the pact deep in failure.Emotions other than reason is wrecking this pact.Don’t they have credible lawyers?

Just read that Hichilema Nyelawiladi himself on impeachment reasons
UNITED Party for National Development (UPND) president Hakainde Hichilema yesterday failed to state the reasons for the impeachment of President Rupiah Banda instead he nyelawiladi himself childishly with rubbish.
Mr Hichilema, when asked about the statements by the UPND-Patriotic Front (PF) pact, failed to give the grounds for the impeachment of President Banda but instead said the Government should concentrate on addressing problems affecting the nation.The UPND leader said in an interview that the Government should not breach the Constitution but govern in the interest of the people by attending to issues that citizens raised.
#20 You are a typical Africa. Head burried in the sand! With people like you, the Zambia of today is far much better than the one that will be there in 2020.
I do not see how Hichilema would bring bloodbath on Zambians but i surely foresee his own blood as a mercenary anarchist spilling. Don’t forget that Zambians treasure peace and are ever vigilant.The principle is that it is better to sacrifice the blood of one childish zealots than the nation.I would not be the first and last one.To make matters worse the ***** is not crafty to say the least.
in other countries (like Germany) they have same script, different players, in Zambia it’s same script, same players.
3RqU naine nanaka mani, I’ll join you tomorrow on pictures of the week, maybe we might see some new players.
Goodnite.
I do not see how Hichilema would bring rivers of umulopa of Zambians but i surely foresee his own umulopa as a mercenary anarchist spilling. Don’t forget that Zambians treasure peace and are ever vigilant.The principle is that it is better to sacrifice such childish zealot ichipuba than the nation.I would not be the first and last one.To make matters worse ichipuba is not crafty to say the least.

On the impeachment, its a none starter RB must be just laughing at these ignobles.Their is no constitutional ground admissible before the speaker and CJ Sakala.They don’t have the numbers either to say the least. Sadly they seem not to know the difficult, sensitive and costly procedure of impeachment other than speaking for some foreign powers which have promised them money and false protection.Its a none starter hullabaloo of desperate minds struggling to stamp their politics on people.
Ni zambezi yeka yeka,wafwa na panga!!
Read between the lines. The impeachment is a political gimmick to RB sleepless. There are no issues to excite the electorate at the moment.
Wrong No.
What you need to know is that playing alarmist games that have no constitutional basis and which the proponents have absolutely no control to realize only hurts the alarmist themselves.Too many alarming pronouncements with zero action on all of them withing a short time plant a perceiption of kawaya wayas about alarmist on citizens as the case at hand. Presidents have too much tools to see all this rubbish as strait jacket delusional rubbish talk show of loser + loser. Zambians know that such a move is unrealizable under prevalent circumstances.They also know that such things with a direct bearing on national security and stability cannot be possible without a a formidable ready alternative leadership to fill any foreseeable power vacuum.?
You don’t go to war without a chain of command. Your so-called joint Presidential Haka-Sata Pact is nothing a futureless fierce power rivalry circus with overflowing volcanic rava. Zambians are too smart for them. One thing i can rest assure you and stand to be vindicated on is that both Sata and prince cobra Ichilema will never ever serve Zambia in plot one.They have failed a criterion borderline test of national interest when they have called for bloodbath through ungoverned Zambia to help them get into plot one and share power.That means kill Zambians to get into power.Its unforgivable sin before Zambians.i don’t see how they will exorcise themselves of this demon perception they have sold to Zambians about the animal in their playbook.Miyanda is ever rejected because his past…
Breaking the news:
On the PF and UPND pact, Prof Chirwa said the pact was welcome and MMD should not feel intimidated. He said MMD should in fact, up their performance in view of the challenge posed by the pact.
And Prof Chirwa said MMD national chairman Michael Mabenga was not fit to serve as lands deputy minister because the Supreme Court established that he abused about K30 million Constituency Development Fund (CDF).
Prof Chirwa said Mabenga did not deserve to be a deputy minister since there was a Supreme Court ruling against him.
Prof Chirwa further charged that it was a disgrace for the country to have low caliber ministers like Tetamashimba who he said he could not employ not even as a secretary.
Chirwa is an internet party President but power chambers where power is made are on the ground not the internet or in tabloid papers.If that was the case every john solye ubwali could be president and Mmembe who has opposed with insults the MMD since 1996 could have had his way.tell him that MMD candidate will be born at the convention.let him go enter the convention and tell the delegates to vote him in.MMD delegates, strategists, gate keepers and architects don’t even have time to read the internet blogs or the post.Let him go on a campaign trail around the country canvasing for votes.MMD is not in Lusaka only but in Chavuma, Zimba, kalabo, sinjembela, mwense, Kasaba, tembwe, Popota, mapanza, mukuni, feira, lukanga, nkambo, ibenga and so forth.
Sata’s talk about impeachment materializing and working with MMD legislatures is pure strait jacket rubbish talk of an ignoble whose party has been infiltrated and turned cancerous beyond recovery.If he has the armor let him initiate it now so that he he win character as an action man from Zambians who take him for a parody drowned in rubbish.
A simple challenge if he is working cordially with MMD legislatures in conspiracy is for him to realize his opposition to the bills just tabled in parliament and kill the payment of gratuity.Lets see how many PACT MPs and anti MMD Mps will vote against the bill and refuse to take the immoral gratuity if it is.Lets see all PACT MPs shooting down government motions.
If their marriage of convenience is worth its salt, they should shoot down the…
If their marriage of convenience is worth its salt, they should shoot down the bills government is presenting to Parliament.
One thing he forgets is that there is no court ruling that Mabenga should not serve as minister or member of parliament and that his vice president Guy Scot famously called Mr.Swin fever scammer was fired as Agriculture minister for stealing US $2 million worth of livestock meant for Zambian farmers during the livestock restocking program under Chiluba. It took the UK to plead with FTJ not to prosecute Guy Scot and yet that the man second to Sata.
I agree with the ruling MMD national secretary Katele Kalumba when he described Sata’s claims that some parliamentarians in the ruling party support the opposition’s bid to impeach President Banda, as extreme wishful thinking.
Kalumba said no MMD parliamentarian had approached him openly or privately to intimate to him, as the party’s chief executive officer, that there was an internal rebellion against President Banda.
” I think that my big man may be dreaming and I would like to say my big man, because I do not like to use abusive language,” Kalumba said in an interview. “If it is wishful thinking, it is only one of the extreme kind.”
Kalumba said no MMD parliamentarian in their right sense could even entertain thoughts of impeaching President Banda.
“I can confidently say that all our members of parliament are fully behind the President,” he said. “It is a time-wasting exercise. I do not know for what political capital they want to do that but I see it as a fruitless exercise.”
Kalumba urged the opposition politicians to behave in a statesmanlike manner and avoid situations that would enhance tension in the country.
“Talk of impeachment of a sitting President does not come easy. It is a very serious matter. It sends some signals not only to the political community but also the investor community, both locally and internationally,” Kalumba said. “When you begin to talk about impeachment you are signifying a political legal impasse has been reached.”
On Wednesday, Sata said President Banda had created several scandals…
44 Senior Citizen greetings. I am impressed by the way you are uging the POST newspaper, which you insult, data without acknowledging them as your source. This is tantamount to pilfering or is it plagiarism.
On “Mr. Tetamashimba said nobody in the MMD party wants to impeach President Banda, adding that there is no division in party. He was speaking in Lusaka today“, how about MMD MP Shakafuswa who openly said that he was going to expose who MMD GRZ machinery operates during elections in his campaign mode to retain the Katuba or so MP position should the MMD manage to expell him form that party? Impressive MP Muteteka has now been appointed D. Minister after his initial displeasure at the way President RB Banda was running GRZ if I’m not mistaken.

Senior Citizen- I am confident that you know the deference between Governance and Politics. Lets not confuse the two issues as we debate.
Teta must be the “stupidest” political creature to have ever crept the political landscape of Zambia. He truly does make Kamalondo (for KK), Sata (for Chiluba), Kadobi and Scorpion (for Chiluba), William Banda (for KK) look like brain surgeons.
Teta politics… here we go again…. well, that’s where he gets his daily bread and butter….can’t blame him much for his daily yellings….
Same goes with Shika..
Zambian politics have just done hey wire. Sata is too old and without education to face todays’ problems, HH has two women on his side, it is as good as being ruled by a chief. RB is old, he can’t have a second term, he should retire and enjoy his young wife. Whose next? we need new blood.
# 47 Wrong No,
Yes i do very much because i served for some good years in the public service before joining the corporate world ending up into Private business Applications consultancy industry where i have a more brighter future and social security of my beloved family.What new thing you got to tell me about Government and Party politics?????
By the way,LUSAKA lawyer Dr Rodger Chongwe is not only a far left liberal but but like Mmembe, a pathetic “Queer theorist”.Besides his dangerous incompetence in the first Chiluba administration,that is one principle reason he was fired and has failed to tick in Christian Zambia to succeed with his Liberal Progressive Party(LPP).
Personally i have never expected Rodger Chongwe as queer theorist to get rattled with pornography he takes so much pleasure in.His party and life has for long been funded by the ILGA – International Lesbian and Gay Association he was recruited by the Australian group some years back to promote it in Zambia with members like Mmembe and Harrington veteran gays.
Ba TETA Have you asked every MP in the MMD want they think of RB and they have responded to you. Dont think for the other MMD MPS. Your mouth will be full of sores at the end of it all. You like talking too much ba guy. One day you find you have no mouth.
If only Teta can leave govt. we can have peace! Even him wants to be president of MMD. Deep down his heart he knows Rupiah is not doing fine! Secretely, he supports the impeavchment!
