Former Defense Minister, George Mpombo and Patriotic Front leader, Michael Sata have have both refused to apologise for the various statement that they publicly issued recently.
Mr. Mpombo said he had no intentions of apologizing for having referred to republican Vice President, George Kunda as the most stupid Vice President Zambia has ever had because it is the truth.
Mr. Mpombo, who is Kafulafuta Member of Parliament, has described Independent Churches of Zambia ICOZ board Chairperson, Rev David Masupa as another government megaphone.
Mr. Mpombo said Reverend Masupa does not even have a Church which he presides over and that he is merely using ICOZ as a tool to reap government institutions of resources to survive on.
He accused Reverend Masupa of surviving on handouts from government because he is a man of misplaced priorities.
Mr. Mpombo told QFM in a telephone interview that he will not allow himself to be lured into such unnecessary apologies by anyone stating that he is sure of what he said.
He has further cautioned Reverend Masupa against making unwarranted statements all in the name of serving Zambians through his church organization.
And PF leader, Michael Sata has vowed that he will neither apologize nor defend himself over his claims that Chadian President Idris Debry recently sneaked into the country to hold talks with President Rupiah Banda on an oil deal.
[pullquote]The PF leader wondered why it had taken the government this long to speak out over the issue when the same officials were quick to respond and apologize to United Party for National Development UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema over the statement that republican president Rupiah Banda made about his wife.[/pullquote]
Reacting to calls by Special Assistant to the President for Press and Public Relations, Dickson Jere, for him to apologize to the nation for his untruthful statement as opposed to creating more misleading statements that the times of Zambia was stopped from publishing the purported visit of the Chadian leader, Mr Sata questioned the reason behind State House’s decision to respond to his allegations four weeks after he challenged government to explain itself that the Chadian leader sneaked into the country for talks over an oil deal.
The PF leader wondered why it had taken the government this long to speak out over the issue when the same officials were quick to respond and apologize to United Party for National Development UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema over the statement that republican president Rupiah Banda made about his wife.
Mr Sata has since stated that he will neither apologize nor defend himself over any remarks he has made pertaining to the purported secret visit by the Chadian leader.

Good, stick to your guns guys \:d/
Deleted after 5 complaints
Yes why apologise now and for what after all that long when they were challenged? No need of course.
Just because some foul mouthed old farmer masquerading as a leader apologised for his embarassing nonsense,then everybody should be made to apologize even for known truths[-x[-x[-x[-x
Deleted after 5 complaints
Government has not been able to prove the allegation convincingly! Besides it is now difficult to trust the current government since they seem to be doing a lot of things in private, For example the ACC clause which they intend to remove from the constitution, had it not been for Mpombo, nobody would have known about the scandal!
i support you me sata .you need not to apology to this irresponsible and dishonesty Government of muwelewele.
Wapya Munzi. Sata and Mpombo have become the good people in the eyes of Zambian people. They can even refuse to apologise. May be they got this from the President himself for refusing to apologise to the donor community. Who knows?
Yes Mr Sata,there is nothing to apologise about.Let fools like Veteran and Wapamya Munzi go to hell.Mr Sata you are the incoming presido and we will not allow you to sink so low as to apologise to this corrupt regime.Viva SATA Viva Mpombo!
Apology is an admission of guilt. RB was guilt of what he said about HH, but as for Sata and Mpombo what they said is the truth. So, why apologies? Just to please a fool.
You only opologise when 100% are sure that you are guilty. why shouls Sata and monkey babptised Mpombo apologise for what is true? This useless govnt has become so secretive to the extent that they want to set all gonvt thieves free by removing the abuse of office close from the constiution. Who can trust this gonvt? They are capable of doing any thing. Dola flew from Mfuwe to South Africa the same days RB was in Mfuewe, whose plane did she use if not the chardian Kaunda?
ubupuba bupuba. I mean what do you expect from sata mpombo duiker combination its comedy at its highest level. these bums cannot say sorry bcos all along what comes out of their smelly mouths is matuvi
Of cause, if you check with civil aviation, a private plane was granted permission to enter the air space during the period in question. Whose plane then?
Apology just becoz RB apologised to the Mwenyez? Hahahah!
Two foolish ilitrates
All of you fantacising that Hakasata will lead this country will be shocked because neither Sata nor Hakainde will ever live in state house.Sata is a commedian while Hakainde does not smile and is childish.A college has opened in Lusaka which gives tutorials on how to smile to win people’s hearts.May be Hakasata should enrol there.
I can’t say it was not expected. Mr. Sata apologizing, that is totally laughable. Even some of his cadres will not apologize for wishing someones family be hacked. What makes you think the head of this one man dictatorship party without direction is going to apologize? It is ok. After all, I expected this.
sata sees no wrong so cant say sorry or thanks. Tabatasha. mpombo is a chatter box whose political career is about to end. those are last kicks of an arse. soon mpombo will have no platform as the post will discard him when they have no use for them. this time the more he shouts the more post will use him. im sure he has realised he has nothing new to say. mpombo in his warped thinking gave up a lucrative job thinking the majority of ministers would follow him but to his shock he is a lone wolf. two weeks after quiting he fails to pay 10million. he was depending on his govt salary and now wallowing in abject poverty. how much does he get from post for being spokesperson and megaphone
Did Mususu ask RB to apologise? RB did this without Musu2 advice
How do you expect a despot like Sata to apologise? Sorry is NOT in his vocabulary now, has never been in the past and will never be in the foreseeable future……..
People have confirmed the entry of a plane during that period-and Dora’s queer movements also support the suspected UFO. Look, chaps- this world is now very global. Whatever you do there is CIA, FBI, and other interested parties who track every moving objects from point a to b everywhere on earth. And mind you Zambians with empty heads- that’s how they are selling your country. One day you will wake to find out that even your wife and children have been sold to Chadian who has bought 1million hectres of land for extracting oil from grass.
By the way what is Sata going to appologise for and to who? In any case, its BY who complained and not the people of Zambia. He is not the spokes person for the grz neither MMD mad men and women. He’s in an opposition party. Although with only one member and that member is BY. Never mind broke BY. He’s applying for a job.
Read yesterday’s post if you are in doubt about the chadian presido incognito entry into Zambia and the sequence of events that followed. Or check with other organisations if you are one of the many chaps with an infiriority complex about the Zambian products/news.
\:d/ cawama yakaba!!! private jet entered our airspace and there are no explanations? govt esheni ko bwino. U R GUILTY!!!!!!!!!!! SELLING US!! Muletulya pamitwe!
Sata and Mpompo do not need to apologise to anyone. what they are saying is the truth and the facts are there. Nyamasoya and his crones are thieves and will leave zambian bankrupt the way things are going. All the donor monies is going to their pockets and their trips overseas.
CAN LT APOLOGISE ON BEHALF OF THAT POOR GUY SHOT BY ITS MINISTER!?
Some “people”it will be difficult to apologize,because they will start to tender the apology to:
-the chiefs
-the tribal cousins(icimbuya)
-the voters in certain provinces
-the list is endless…………………………..
You do not insult the crocodile when your bottocks are still in water!
Ahahah.. I like this………man of misplaced priorities.
Now are the favourite words to use in the political realm.. urged, cautioned, warned and allegations or could it be that the journalists use same words lyonse?
#21 Peter- We are being ruled by Mafia Monkeys of Death. They are panicking that what they thought would not come to surface is in public domain. Just like the ACC art 37 manouvors nothing can hide because we have patriotic Zambians even within the MMD/State House. These Zambians will pretend to be with RB, but they will not let him manupulate the system to his advantage. We are at war until 2011
HOW DARE YOU EXIST…APOLOGISE!o->
thez no need for our president mr SATA to apologyz to ths useless government, wat mr SATA said is the truth and also wat Mr Mbombo said is the FACT ! so y shud our president (SATA) and Mbombo apologyz?
MMD officials from all the six wards in Chifubu Constituency have rejected the adoption of Ndola businessman Frank Ng’ambi, accusing the party’s top leadership of having been corrupted to impose Ng’ambi on the electorate.
Sata and Mpombo, apologising for what???[-x[-x[-x[-x
You better apology,why to what to be caught up in the web of lies?You invited lies so defend yourself.
Thanks mr President now waiting to appologies for mfumbwe saga where lives where lot
#27
You have squarely hit on the centre of the nail,Mr.Sata and Mr.Mpombo will really find it hard to apologies.
#35 Openess – He only apologised because his insulted covered his financiers the INDIANS
What a team of lunatics in the country………these people lack wisdom indeed
why make everyone apologize, for what????? if one has diarrhea, does it mean that everyone else should have????
you cant force a horse to drink water just because you can drink it…nononono guys…
please leaders get wisdom and get understanding… dont politicize apologies……….
you cant force pipo to confess just because have done it yourself—-what a shame this Nation is… God will judge eachone of us according to our deeds>>>>> dont be a fool get wisdom
What is going on in our lovely country when we are asleep? Why does this mmd grz like to do busines shrouded in secrecy? Thank God that when the rest of us are asleep, some partriotic Zambians are awake keeping an eye on these mambalas.
Those whom the gods want to destroy, they first make them mad. Mpombo and Sata fit this adage to the letter.
@ 40. I think your hand made a mistake. Surely you meant Rupia and MMD fit into that adage unless you…..
1991 is repeating its self in 2010
Get some pop-corns and watch how this Political Movie will end in Zambia.
The Chadian corrupt leader camer into the country and it’s a fact. Why deny it? Typical of MMD just like they lied that RB going to Namibia only to see him watching a soccer match involving brazil on tax payers money. Ala, Dickson Jere keep quite fooolish badly brought up boy.
Why apologising whe they did it in secret viva Sata
Theres no smoke without fire, who are the investors
that RB met at the lodge?
We are going to ask the USA military to tell us if they did not see unIdentified flying object(UFO) moving from chad to mfuewe. The USA has all the data about flying objects in Africa. You are ashamed that this data is known. state shushus released it. hahaha…RB you cant cheat us man. And of all things, you come to question Sata’s allegations after a month, why didnt you do it right that time? You MMD-thieves are really dull cratures.
Maybe its George Kunda who should first apologise to Zambians for indulging in illicit “fimi fimo”, catching a wicked disease and making Zambians foot the bill for his amanthenda ya kuiletelela umwine!
An apology with no remorse is no apology at all. Its as good as fooling God. RB’s apology does not merit an apology it lacks the spirit of confession, remorse, and reconciliation and forgiveness. Not even our All Mighty God will accept it. Why force people to apologise basing on a wrong and suspicious premise.
Extracting an apology from the two is failing to know who they are. Would you ask Bikiloni and Difikoti to apologise for their utterances? They are nothing but comedians/clowns. Followers of these people need to know that the large crowds they pull are there just for people to hear/watch the circusfrom the loose canons. You cant expect sanity in a leader who has never undergone an internal party election because he believes it is his property and no one has the right to take it away from him. Even the Scotts, Kabimbas, Lubindas ought to be ashamed for ascribing to the drama exhibited by SATA. I for one have more respect for HH. Mazoka was even more civilised than SATA. This is why i tend to question the Post’s wisdom in preferring SATA to HH on account of previous experience.
Bloggers bloggers bloggers, throw those frustrations elsewhere. I can guarantee you that when the western capitalists read your comments they really get happy. You will forever position your strengths on wasteful efforts and be forever be beggars. VIVA RB for not apologizing to the donors and VIVA for apologizing to HH. MMD has continued to show maturity and Sata supporters you will be doomed again your president cares for himself only trust me even people that campaigned for him last have run away to MMD. Apology is healthy thus failing to do so where is it just is a shame. Of course we should not apologise to the Donors they are busy milking us.
Tracy Phiri#50 and mk#49 both of u are fuz ! to hel with yo fulishness ! if u,a male take yo tuma small M.B.O.L.O to hell n if u,a female go to bwezani so dat he nyengaz u
Once again we seem so much to be in a state of diversion from the real issues. We need to be discussing ways of how we shall lift the many Zambians out of poverty, the youth need jobs, the country as whole needs a better international standing, this country needs to be seen to be working with its neighbors, we need to be a key trading nation in the region. It strikes as very petty to be so concerned about who comes in or out of the country, besides, Chad is well known for its oil, so what if reasonably priced oil was being negotiated to be brought into our country..African leaders must get together in diplomatic interaction for we are on the same team..our President must be given credit for good international relations, such skill is cardinal in a globalised world economy. Its excellent th
Its excellent that President Banda has been able to lure the leader of Brazil..Brazil is big nation on the world stage, it has a powerful voice. This government has many flaws within it, but they have yet I see no credible opposition to take it on..Zambia depends on many of you bloggers on here.
Also, it must be noted that the President was right in his outbursts against the relevant western donor country. Our country does not need their money…its well known that nothing comes for free, all they do is buy our sovereignty..we have been receipients of this money for many decades now yet we fall deeper and deeper in poverty. It must be made clear to the western countries that in this decade and further, no Zambian and African will be a beggar any more, we won’t sell our power anymore, power to develop, power to make our decisions! In as much as donor money does help where the conditions for receiving it are fair..Zambia does not need AID MONEY.
Those CHIEF BOOTLICKERS,why are they failing to tender apologies.Sata was a chief bootlicker,who licked Dr.Chiluba’s boot or rather “HELINGAZA” for the third term bid,were the 22 M.Ps expelled in MMD.He(SATA) was the author of that scheme and thought Dr.Chiluba will endorse him for Presidency.
Mpombo licked the boot and was always kneeling down.We are sick and tired of your outbursts.Please give us a break.
8-|8-|8-| Sometimes I do wonder the thinking in some blockers. Honestly, did those people who have ever stayed in State House had certain qualities which anabled them to do so or did they just come from Heaven upon God’ declaration that one day they shall occupy the house. Please, I urge you not to speak so abusively about Sata or Hichilema because one day any of the two could become your leader.
#51 i dont think we need to get to levels where we insult one another. You dont know who i am and might just turn out to be your father or mother-n-law. Its not about the size or anything because if i were to show you the pictures of SATA’s item you might change your mind. Becareful and dont dare do that. Ethics stop us from doing certain things.
So many apologies flying around… thats why Mpombo and Sata Dont feel like filling the air.
#49. If you just fatten yourself on BIG Macs all the time don’t be illusioned that even your relatives in Zambia do the same. They have nothing to eat and are just walking naked. In short let those (SATA and MPOMBO, etc) who fighting for your naked relatives do so with no disturbance from hopeless chaps such as you who have nothing to offer to fellow suffering Zambians.
THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL SPENT 40 YEARS IN THE WILDERNESS, ON A JOURNEY THAT COULD HAVE TAKEN THEM 7 DAYS TO FINISH. BECAUSE GOD NEW THEIR ATTITUDE AND CONDUCT WAS VERY BAD
SATA & HH WILL NEVER REACH TO THE PROMISE LAND. THEY ARE NOW FIGHTING EACH OTHER BEHIND THE SCENES ON WHO WILL BE THE PRESIDENT AND PLAYING DOUBLE STANDARDS.
FORMING A PACT WAS BASICALLY ACCEPTING THAT NEITHER WAS STRONG TO WIN THE ZAMBIAN PEOPLE
HH IS JUST TOO DULL AND HAS NOTHING TO OFFER ON EDUCATION, HEALTH, POVERTY, JOB CREATION, INSPIRING THE NATION AND THE LIST GOES ON AND ON. THE ONLY THING HE KNOWS IS PERSONAL ATTACKS ON RB. THERE IS A LOT THAT HE CAN CAPITALISE ON. BUT HEY, THE MAN IS POLITICALLY DRY.
SATA AS THE NAME SAYS COBRA!!. HE IS FILLED WITH ANGER, RAGE, ENVY & JEALOUSY. ABOVE ALL HE IS…
people who apologise find peace with their God and people surrounding them….
when you say the truth it will remain the truth no matter how hard some people try to make it look the other war round.VIVA SATA/MPOMBO VIVA.
