MMD spokesperson Dora Siliya has urged Zambians to develop political careers by joining the ruling party.
Ms Siliya said the leadership in the party is friendly and embracing, adding that those who join the party are assured of being given an opportunity to aspire for various positions.
She said Zambians, especially the youth, should associate themselves with the MMD because President Banda has their interest at heart.
Ms Siliya said the victory which the party recorded in the recent local government elections is evidence that the party has support from people at the grassroots.
She said most Zambians are happy with the policies of Government as witnessed by the voting pattern in the local government elections.
Ms Siliya said the youth must be sober-minded and consider joining the MMD as they stand to benefit from a number of opportunities
She further encouraged the womenfolk to join the party saying MMD is all-embracing.
Ms Siliya said the economy is growing as the private sector has also expressed confidence in the leadership of President Banda.
She said it is highly unlikely that the private sector would want to see a change in policies and programmes of Government.

Ms Siliya said Government has put in place incentives to make business transactions flexible in the country.
“The President has been so embracing to the private sector that I do not think they would want to see change in policies and programmes of Government,” Ms Siliya said.
Meanwhile, former secretary general of the National Energy Sector and Allied Workers Union (NESAWU) Yotham Mtayachalo has advised PF president Michael Sata to respect President Banda and desist from scandalising his office.
Mr Mtayachalo said it is unfortunate that Mr Sata has developed the habit of making wild and unsubstantiated allegations against Mr Banda in an effort to gain political mileage.
He said this in reaction to an article in yesterday’s edition of The Post newspapers in which Mr Sata was quoted saying the conviction of Kafulafuta member of Parliament George Mpombo was secured by Mr Banda.
Mr Mtayachalo said the remarks by Mr Sata are a mockery to the independency of the Judiciary.
He said the judiciary is independent but that the opposition usually deems it biased when a person who is perceived an enemy of the State is convicted.
“When the judiciary rules in favour of a member of the opposition, it is all smiles but if it rules against them, then the Judiciary is deemed compromised.
“It must be realised that in all countries where the judiciary has been undermined, there has been no peace. Mr Sata should stop the habit of commenting on everything for the sake of political mileage…this is not the first time he is making allegations without facts,” he said.
Mr Mtayachalo said Mr Sata should produce evidence to prove his claims that the judiciary is working in favour of President Banda.
He said a person who is aspiring for Presidency should desist from making reckless and wild allegations which have no substance.
Mr Mtayachalo said the office of the President must be protected and respected at all times.
He said Mr Banda has nothing to do with Mr Mpombo’s conviction as the law on bouncing a cheque is clearly stipulated.
“The President is not the one who came up with the law on bouncing a cheque so he should not be blamed for what has happened to Mr Mpombo,” he said.
On Friday, Ndola Magistrates court convicted Mr Mpombo of one count of dishonouring a cheque amounting to K10 million.

Madam, keep hallucinating like……sorry to say but, like the muppet you resemble, I mean, Ms. P.i.g.g.y. from the Muppet Show.
This is a multi party democracy country madam. Please if you have run out of praises for RB it is better you dont say anything,
Madam MM spokesperson Dora Siliya, why join a party that has metamorphosed as UNIP 2- why not just join the original UNIP! It is clear for all to see that MMD is a party for thieves, political prostitutes, ancient failures (who failed to make it 45 years ago when Zambia became independent) and indeed a party where you can enjoy the party (by stealing)! 45 Years ago our forefathers sought and achieved the independence that they sought! In the next generation of leaders, they cleaned out the coffers! Then came a man who tried to reform the country and died (MHSRIP) in the process. Unfortunately, somebody went and called from retirement a self confessed die hard UNIPIST and who became a revamped democracy and promised that he would not go for a second term! The rest is history!
Our system of democracy must be designed to encourage both differences and dissent, because the checks and balances are designed to preserve the rights of the individual and the locality against preeminent central authority. For me, the PF/ UPND is a pact that recognises that distinction on how we must be dependent upon the other, for the successful operation of a unique and happy form of government. Our system and our freedom must permit the legislative to be pitted against the executive, the province against GRZ, the City Council against the Rural Councils, party against party, NGO’s against Church, all in competition or in contention one with another.
Our new generation of leaders should come from us ourselves in the age of RB’s children and our task in joining any party must be to reform this country and to weave from all these tangled threads a fabric of law and progress. We are not permitted the luxury of irresolution (as show by the ongoing constitution mishap).
We (all Zambians) must join this race to fulfil our forefather’s dreams as without this, we shall go nowhere and remain on the hour of one o’clock!
IN YOUR SICK DREAMS LADY!
What has R.B done or is doing for the youth, Miss Piggy? A lot of youths have passed out from vocational colleges, polytechnics, business colleges and even universities but are busy roaming the streets whilst investors like KCM bring unqualified boiler makers, artisans, and laborers.What a shame! How many young ministers does R.B have in his cabinet? How many qualified youths have been appointed to important government positions? Please stop cheating yourselves and bring out real issues!
Miss PIGGY
Some youths wouldnt sink so low as to use bottom power as you did to get to were you are,they respect their bodies,and if your RB had the interests of the youth,he would have presided over a constitution to stand the taste of time,not marabishi aya
How can i join the Movement for Mass Destruction (MMD)? This party has run out of ideas!!!
:(( Miss Piggy, that is all rubbiss
miss Piggy, that is pure rubbish
DELETED
to be honest, joining MMD
Maybe in the next two lives
A politician thinks of the next election; a statesman thinks of the next generation.
dora all these pipo insulting you niba kaponya ku USA balepipa amafi yatukote, they are bitter to see you doing so well as they kasabanya amafi, you can forgive them they are illegals stranded in USA working on fake social security numbers or get paid under the table. go work ku UK or other euripean countries like yor friends in diaspora who come to visit ku zed.
We have plenty of Confidence in this country, but we are a little short of good men to place our Confidence in
Hey Dora just because you have made a career out of MMD dosn`t mean that we all have to do it.
you guys in USA you do dehumasing and shameful jobs which cant be done by yankees thats why you are so annoyed bcos you are stuck out their. why cant you go ku europe were zambians do decent jobs according to qualifications. we here uko ku USA be it doctor, lawyer engineer as long as you allien and illegal you just wipe a white mans’ arse. is that life honestly no wonder you want to vent your anger on a very successful lady in Dora. She has earned her success due to hardwork and determination not you lazy bunkums who want the easy way out thinking USA is milk and honey hell no
mama DORA don’t be discouraged by some section of society who are jealous of your success.TIME IS YOUR TIME TO WORK FOR MOTHER ZAMBIA.PEOPLE SHOULD ALLOW YOU TO GOVERN. KEEP IT UP.WE ARE OBSERVING YOUR PROGRESS. YOUR COMPETITORS WILL NEVER APPRECIATE YOUR PROGRESS.
KWACHA NGWEE
I don’t know is it rational to go onboard a sinking ship!
You have terribly failed to run Trades Traing Institutes where we expected the majority of Zambians to get their life skills. But you and Chituwo decide to underpay lecturers so that the whole TEVETA SYSTEM is stinking with unqualified personnel.No mmddddddddddd
Politicians are the same all over. They promise to build a bridge even where there is no river. All of us who are concerned for peace and triumph of reason and justice must be keenly aware how small an influence reason and honest good will exert upon events in the political field of our mother zambia
You Guys, Why are u attacking our USA brothers? Do you benefit anything from this Government? They are not providing any employment that is why some of our brothers are in USA. Dora is just an A.S.S. HOLE who was just put on that possition to satisfy the masses. Who can join the MMD as at now??? She should just keep her mouth shut! AND ALSO U GUYS WHO ARE SUPPORTING HER ARE F##KING U.S.E.LESS LIKE HER!
#22 whizz jejj yes we benefit from govt and dont have to go mukupipa amafi ku USA. Dora is educated from unza not some obscure univesity mu europe were pipo dont fail exams as long as they have money like pa canvidish. yes Im MMD and very proud of it we are not failures twalisambilila with very decent jobs. teti mpipe amafi ku USA and start insulting a hardworking lady in dora, jealousy kano nibo
# 23 ba diasporic slave
if only you knew what dora used to do ku ruins and school of education offices and behind NELT then you will stop blind praise and worship
Dora will be punished after her party of thieves has gone in 2011.
Nobody wants to feed on a rotting corpse.
Iwe 24 spill the beans tell us
VERY SORRY INDEED
Iwe # 23 diasporic slave, visit Brain drain website by Mwape and see how educated Zambians are mu Europe and U.S.A .See the profiles and the universities they have been to and then you will shut up! Dambisa Moyo, Harvard school business is an example. How many Zambians do you know who have studied there? Zed diaspora are getting education from World class varsities like Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham ,Delft in Holland to mention a few.U,N,Z,A and C.B.U is way out the league of these institutions. Just because u do not have money and brains to afford such university, it does not mean every Zambian in the diaspora is in a kantemba college.
Miss Piggy, it is not a secret that you have F.U.C.K.E.D your way up the social and political ladder but be reminded that not all people have your kind of skills and mindset. So rather than encourage others to join M.M.D, I would rather you enjoy your “hard” earned privileges whilst they last!
Lets just go to one party rule and avoid all sorts of election violence and hatred amongst Zambia brought about by belonging to different partys. Every candidate will be campaigning on his/her own will and be elected on merit.
And lets embrace Our motto *One Zambia One nation* which is now undermined by in-fighting .. A zambian against another Zambian just because they don’t belong to same party. No good development will be achieved as jealous of another party continues.. finest brians are sidelined cos they don’t belong to the ruling party.. What does government REALLY mean?? Should it be made up of all ministers coming from one party in a multiparty system?? ( Kanjimaan = the wise)
#12 when you insult a woman in bemba think of your mother and wife they have the same organ. #29 achimwene you are an economic slave in bondage with a belief that you have arrived. no place is sweeter than home. how can you seek refuge in foreign land. if you out their for school and work then you come back thats fine bcos thats what we went thru but if its bcos you couldnt make it back home then sorry. let me let you know some of you that side in USA are now homeless
You guys giving surpport to dorra ,who is she? look at her face even my puppy is pretty ..is supprting knowing that the wiggy is putting on her funny heard was bought buy MMD so dorra give a support becouse mailo tawakafwale wiggy…keep quiet and go and tell your parents to join MMD…I CALL YOU………………….GUESS!
# 31 diasporic slave-Don`t take it personal bro.Everyone has a right to decide what they want to do with their lives.The fact that you decided to settle in Zambia doesn`t mean that the person next to you has to do the same.Respect individual decisions.
#12 drop the insults for shameless dora. I wouldn’t go to that extent. #18,#19  are liars. Dora hasn’t ascended the ladder due to had work as could be evidenced by uproars in her appointments. she’s been to courts and RB organised her acquittals, came back from his aimless trips and re-squeezed her into cabinet. That is Dora. We have alot of people who decided to leave dor Us 7 other countries in search of better lives because MMD can’t give zambians what they are mandated to provide. They want all zambians to join MMD so that they dance for Rupiah and get coins. Sorry Dora! try something else. MMD has outlived its usefulness and it’s high time Dora started packing. MMD is insenstive to the sufferings of zambians which is why RB cares less when people complains
This diasporic slave chap, surely theres is nothing wrong with uku pipa amafi if it earns one a living and they are ok with it. In zed you also have abantu aba pipa amafi, the medical practitioners. Is there anything wrong with that. You are just some childish jealous Ma-th-er f-u-c-k-e-r with nothing better to do. If one has chosen to be an illigal what business have you got with that. Many of us have professional jobs which you would only dream of, bugger. Your support of rupiahs cohorts clearly indicates that you are an ignorant a–r-s-e licker and a blind follower.
I’ve tried but I can’t resist it. . . Miss Piggy!
LOL
We won’t forget what Miss P here did over the Zamtel Privatization saga. She may be re-elected by the rural voters who do not anything because they have never heard of RP Capital but where people know, she stands no chance. She’s definitely not someone who is liked by many and so Miss PIggy she shall be untill she resigns from that position that many of us think she does not qualify to hold.
#35 pandapa b$ I log off I will tell you that if you see nothing wrong in cleaning a white mans’ arse ukupipa then you are sick. if its ok to stay as an illegal allien in foreign land thats breaking the law like bouncing a cheque. I dont work for RB but govt and Im proud of it bcos I got my education both locally and abroad and now have a decent job. grow up mwaice b4 you deported
