The Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD) has condemned recent statements by Patriotic Front leader, Michael Sata, on Republican President, Rupiah Banda.
Party National Secretary, Katele Kalumba, told ZANIS in an interview in Lusaka today that Mr Sata’s statements that Mr Banda is the best liar, are gravely unprofessional.
Mr Sata yesterday charged that President Rupiah Banda is lying over the mobile hospitals and deserves a medal for being the best liar the country has ever had for a President.
Dr. Kalumba said he is disappointed that a man at his level can reduce himself to insulting a fellow Zambian and Head of State for that matter.
He pointed out that Mr Sata as president of a political party is considered as a role model for his members but that he has failed to exhibit leadership qualities.
Dr Kalumba said Mr Sata was not in order to describe the Republican President in the manner he did.
He explained that in politics it is important to respect and acknowledge that there are different beliefs and cultures in any given society.
Dr Kalumba said Mr Sata has never been a good example to the young generation because of his hard language that tends to injure personalities in the nation.
He accused Mr Sata of not bringing out real issues to help build the nation, adding that he is in the habit of condemning the government of the day.
Dr. Kalumba has further advised the Republican President not to respond to the comments by Sata.
ZANIS
Iyoo mwaliba ifipuba ubuteko bwesu!
Katele answer these questions-1) Did RB win 100% in North W P? Was Chiluba a damn good President? Was RB the only Presidential candidate who stood in all 150 consituencies in the last elections? Your answers will determine whether Sata is right or wrong.. By the way when is judgement gonna be made in respect of your cases.
Why do f00ls like Katele continue to runt in the media? S!ck and tired of these men without a vision. Tomorrow, Sata will probably call Katele a f00lish witchdoctor from Luapula or something like that. Watch this space.
Elderly politicians insulting each other in the media is cheap politics.
I’m with you # 2 good questions and they ought to be answered?
Why do f.ools like Katele continue to rant in the media? S!ck and tired of these men without a vision. Tomorrow, Sata will probably call Katele a f.oolish witchdoctor from Luapula or something like that. Watch this space.
Elderly politicians insulting each other in the media is cheap politics.
When I was at St. Edmunds’ Secondary School ku-Mazabuka, I used to make up a Top Chart for the top 10 liars in our class every week or so depending on the school term topic. The top one was called Topa and to this day the consistent Topa is called by that name by many or all of my former classmates.
I bet the PF self-appointed leader has been rightly thinking in that lines me and others did some years back. Let us just pray for liars to desist from performing that bad attitude in the open.
Anyway, on “Dr. Kalumba has further advised the Republican President not to respond to the comments by Sata“, this is very good free advice from MMD N. Secretary.
Enjoy.

Psalm 16:8 I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be…
Dr Kalumba Katele, I wonder if you are still your right frame of mind. Sata was just reacting to RB’s recent statements. There are alot of inconsistency on the part of RB. 100% win in NorthWestern Province. What do you expect hard language is the style of Zambian politics. Its rear to find leaders around table discussing critically the many problems affecting the nation. Even at MMD NEC level Mabenga’s reaction to Mpombo’s resignation was hard language. Katele I know you want to draw the attention of RB to be considered for an appointment. We are still waiting for another day when you shall be smoked out from your hiding. Spare us from your blind loyalty. There are so many things which your and the Boss are supposed to explain to Zambians..75% shares in Zamtel, Tazara concessioning,…
The man is surely a liar, remember when he promised zambian people fertilizer for 50 pin. This has never been fufilled up to now. lies for breakfast, lunch and supper
No doult about it RB is a liar, remember how he promised us to contiue with Levy legacy, is appointing the people Levy fired due to corruption, Levy’s legacy????
Kalumba, remember when RB “ze liar” told us that he was only goning to finish Levy term, but what do we see now? he still want to stand in 2011, is that not being a liar???
The Doctor shud use the same advice he haz given the Prezident, “not to respon to the comments by Sata”.
Katele must advise his boss to tell Zambians the truth about government’s intention to acquire mobile hospitals; Is it a donation or is it a business transaction? Zambians have been inundated with a record number of lies, half-truths and outright deceptions since this administration took office. We deserve better than discourtesy.
Sometimes it’s wiser not to respond to anything Sata says. If you do, you will be playing to Sata’s game and you cant win. His character is on eof a kind.
My advice to other political leaders is get on with your own message. Let issues and substance of your programes speak for themselves. If you bring yourself to the level of Sata, you are dead meat. No use in doing that. Zambians are not fools. They want credible and capable leadership.
I dont think Mr.Sata said anything atrocious to raise the hell.He used those sarcastic words just to give RB a kick up his a.r.s.e (sabotage).So it’s not a big issue because we all know that Mr.Sata will never say anything good about RB.
course RB’s a liar. any level-headed person will tell u that. wats the fuss?
Sata is the biggest liar. Remember Sinda misale solders?
SATA calling RB a liar is like a POT calling a KETTLE black. To be honest I’m bored to the bone by Sata and his dagga-smoking mind. If he thinks he is so wise what has he been doing all those years he was in government? I personally do not want to be ruled by a ruffian president who is 90 years old and thinks like a kaponya. I’m not a kaponya, so him and I can’t see the same things alike. But he better learn to shut up sometimes, no matter how much he likes the sound of his own voice.
Is this politics or critics? when somebody outside goverment says anything its an insult but when its from the president nothing to say.Why should we fear to crisis the president when it is wrongand commend him when things are ok? lets avoid cheap and old politics instead concentrate on real issues
Being elderly is not a big deal. Yes Sata has lied before. But look, him and the Repulication President differ interms of local and international reaction to what both can say at any one time. What the President says is policy and the other is usual politics. Therefore, RB must realise that lying, especially on those outlined issues, as a president is emmbarassing, dissappointing, uncalled for as a president, and above all KUTUBELESHA and NOKUTUTUMPIKA. And number 16 Bembas say ‘akanani kantu kali pabwali’ . So RB is in the present and must be condmned as such. katele knows that his boss is a liar. So the best for him is to advise Bwezani not to respond because will be emmbarassed
I remember at school if one reacted angrily to a nick name that nick name would stick. But if one ignored it people would stop calling by that nick name. What I mean is Sata enjoys the reactions by Rupiah every time Sata talks. Iam sure Sata is getting a big kick at this game of ku cholekana.
Katele is simply mouth piecing simply because he has those court cases. He is like a KUWE (Coward dog) who has to wag his tail and bark to please the master lest he is not given food. Anyway i cannot blame him……………………………
Imwe nanga computer inayenda kuti?
Mr Katele, we are not retarded. someone needs to bend you over and penetrate you, prison style then you’ll stop lying. Everyone knows how bad corruption is in Zed. we have all had to bribe a public servant in zed just to do his job, its a way of life. Mr.Katele, your mother gave birth to you from her backside.
#18. BK. At the best it can be described as ‘CHIWAMILA GALU KULUMA MBUZI’ mentality.
SATA is worse than rupiah,he shouldn’t even be talking on issues bodering on good governance all are the same wrong UNIP offsprings.
Ba LT what happened to the hi-tech Laptop kanshi,i need to get one of those.
So he got 99% in n/western…..so he stood in all 150 constituences….yes he was off by 1%…SO WHAT !!….can that be compared to the great lie of KK HIDING WEAPONS in Eastern Province or THE CHINESE PORTER who STOLE THE PASSPORT or that HE IS NOT A TRIBALIST despite leading a 99.9% bemba speaking party or THAT HE NEVER SAID CHINESE WILL BE CHASED ONCE THE WORLD CAME TO AN END AND HE BECAME PRESIDENT ?…..or that the Post staff go for months without getting paid…or buying a cow and telling people that it was a gift from some Lozi induna……or sufering a heart attack and getting a triple bypass and yet says he is more fit than HH….People pls, even the move to publish such things shows how LOW mmembe is and how desperate he has become…
Everybody is condemning everybodys statement. What the hell? Pointing fingers at each other all the time kwati fyayiche. YABA!
Okey, iwe Katele Kalumba, what do you call a liar in your language?
Bushe, is RB not puuti?
The Zambian charter of the Murderous MMD (Mexican Drug Dealers) are at it again. This morning, they beat up a Post news reporter Chibaula Silwamba and harassed photographer Collins Phiri at Lusaka International Airport who went to cover President Banda’s return from Kampala, Uganda.
Ka katele you are full of liars like you boss RB. You Guys have you heard that MMD cadres have bit up post reporters and his cameraman at the airport this morning.MMD have become thugs. They did want us to see the porno the show RB at they airports.
RB and his gang are going to have a sad end. After all the bad things people said about poor Levy just goes to show the man tried, really tried, this is going to turn out badly. LET’S ALL PRAY VIOLENCE DOESN’T ERUPT IN OUR COUNTRY (deliberately had that sentence in CAPS).
Katele should go back to the hole he came from when he went into hiding
#24 Boma Ni Boma- Do your arithmetic(Grade 7) Your sponsor didnt get 99% 1) RB 718 355, 2) SATA 683 150, 3) HH 353 018 and 4) Miyanda 13 683. Does that give 99%. No wonder your MMD party cannot see the truth. You are all liars. He beat Sat by a mere 1.06%. This was inspite all the resource RB had eg Choppers, limitless money, ZP Op etc. Lastly there is no partial standing in presidential elections.
Ketele Mfwiti Kalumba doesn’t think like an educated man. No wonder he was running away from the police and hiding naked under a shrub in his native Chiyengi School of Witchcraft. When is this witch going to jail?
Mudala dont waste time mu politics commercialize tuma laptops kabili am sure the world would be happy to buy them.
34 Deja Vu greetings.

And the award for the Best Liar 2009 goes to…….(drum roll,round of applause,standing ovation)OMG….RB.The audience is excited && RB walks up the stage to collect his award.end of story.Good day bloggers!!!
MMD cadres beat-up Post reporter in full view of Lusaka Police Division Commanding officer “I asked why they wanted me to leave but they just said because I was a Post reporter and others said it was because of the MMD woman whose pictures of praise for President Banda at Mansa Airport recently have been published in The Post,” he narrated.
“One of them grabbed me by the shoulder and started pushing me, before I even started walking, another one slapped me heavily on my left cheek. Then almost immediately, another one slapped me on the right cheek and they lifted me in the air in full view of the Lusaka Division Police commanding officer, Greenwell Ng’uni and other senior police officers. When I saw the commanding officer [Ng’uni], I called his name and asked for help, but…
Katele Kalumba or is it Katele Kabwalala. He thinks Bwenzana will give a post, chalipwa mune
On “Party National Secretary, Katele Kalumba, told ZANIS in an interview in Lusaka today that Mr Sata’s statements that Mr Banda is the best liar, are gravely unprofessional“, all I can write is that the self-appointed PF leader has mentioned a statement which entails that he could be a liar but not just the best liar. May he considers himself a good liar or a better liar or indeed whatever classification that he feels suits him, but it is great that he did not mention what category he falls under in the case of liars.
Thus, do not panic and may be approach him to tell you the position he holds in lying.
Be blest all.

Tuka pokola twa ka Zambia bongo bongo tapaba, ni as per tutu
l thought a person who tells lies is a liar,so rupia has lied several times so to me sata is right
He is liar, is there any other word we can describe him. He is lying, even a 5 year old knows the facts that he is lying.
It is suprising that Sata respects the President. He fail short of calling him the Great St Upid Fool to live on the African continent after the common era
If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, looks like a duck; well guess what? IT IS A DUCK!
I would have loved to answer Katele in a language he understands. Regrettably, I don’t speak “Stupid”.

When it is their women parading naked before them, it is okay. dDemented thinking. Old UNIP ways are back of praise-singing. I wonder what kind of husband would let his wife show their underwear in public like that?
Ba Katele, you should know that there is a cultural problem here. In Western politics, especially the British parliament, it is very rare to hear a politician accuse another of lying. It is unparliamentarian language and uncouth. On the other hand, it is not so serious in UK to call someone ‘stupid *****.’ But this is the mother of all insults in Zambia! (Sorry KK! You are responsible). Mr Sata meant that the President has misled the Zambian people. I actually think so too, although I supported the Mobile Hospital project, it was never clearly stated that it was an offer from a friendly country. I am not Sataphiliac but I think RB should have been more forthright instead of announcing this through an obscure radio station. I am sorry that my President shoots himself in the foot.
RBISSSH. Katele foolish.
nice to be the speaker all times. but when its rubbish u wud wish not.
