‘Sata was already exposed before Chiluba became a politician’

Share

The Patriotic Front (PF) says Party president, Michael Sata, was already a politician when Second Republican President, Frederick Chiluba, was still a bus conductor.

Party Spokesperson, Given Lubinda, told QFM in a telephone interview that Mr Sata was already Branch Chairman for UNIP when Dr Chiluba was a bus conductor.

Mr Lubinda was reacting to Lusaka Province MMD Chairman, William Banda, who was quoted in the press saying people like Mr Sata should stop insulting Dr Chiluba and instead thank him for exposing them to the world.

Mr Lubinda explained that the PF leader was Governor of Lusaka when Dr Chiluba was nowhere near the helms of power.

Mr Lubinda saidMr Banda must be out of his mind to insinuate that Dr Chiluba is the one who exposed Mr Sata to the world.

He said it is everyone’s knowledge that Mr William Banda is still a legal deportee to Malawi who owes his stay in Zambia to late President Levy Mwanawasa.

He added that Mr Banda owes his freedom of movement to President Rupiah Banda.

  1. Can any sense come out of Gifteless Rasheed Lubinda a Pakistan native taliban??? What history does know about zed when in the madrassas he went through they only articulate 10 virgins awaiting him?

  2. so what?? does it matter who came into the political field earlier? petty politics typical of africans. peter tosh taughty bob how to play guiter, and who came to sell the most records? please talk about sensible issues, its a sunday morning and i woke up nachimwela thinking i will read something solid. ba shiti imwe. elo zambia is losing by the way. zambia 0 comoros 4.

  3. # 2 & 3
    and what history do you know about Zambia, please yap when it is necessary and not just for the sake of being an MMD Cadre, what proof do you hav tha Lubinda is from Pakistan,he is very Zambian than you and your fellow bootlicker William Banda. Unreasoning racist you are

  4. Comrade in 5, your widom cannot be comprehended by cadres like #2 and 3. They are quick to talk and slow to think if ever they do. These cadres call patriotic Zambians as foreigners. Lubinda is a son of the soil than FTJ you are defending. For once, please stop and whink before you say anything. We know you are practicing how to wite but this is not the forum for that.

  5. I am not a fan of Sata but there are bench marks that he has left in these country which no one can deny have helped Zambians. eg Napsa and the Great East Bridge in Lusaka. As a presidential material I will let the voter decide. As for those calling Lubinda a foreigner check your history- you are all Congolese and came to Zambia almost at the same time as Europeans were coming to the Cape of Hope.

  6. What’s wrong to be a bus conductor ?
    What’s wrong to be poor…
    Does it means that US, we not good enough for the king SATA..

    Are we just a tool for the King to become president ?

    Maybe after he will go and see his best friend of the mines to get..!!!

    I hate Politic anyway and i don’t understand anything

    SORRY MY FRIENDS

  7. #6 – You said it in one sentence my brother. Tuma mmd cadres are empty tins. Willie banda was deported by chiluba to malawi, LPM made mistake to bring this dic.khead back to Zed.

  8. #9. NOBODY SAID THERE WAS ANYTHING WRONG WITH BEING A BUS CONDUCTOR. LUBINDA WAS JUST TRYING TO HIGHLIGHT WHAT THE TWO HAVING BEEN DOING TO CONFIRM THAT IT WASN’T CHILUBA WHO SHOWED SATA THE WORLD. IN FACT IF YOU READ KAVINDELE’S CONTRIBUTIONS TO NEGATIVE THE ACCUSATION THAT SATA WAS A CONVICTED THIEF 52 YEARS AGO, AFTER INDEPENDENCE SATA MIGRATED TO ENGLAND. AGAIN, ITS UP TO YOU TO FIND OUT WHAT KAFUPI WAS DOING BY THAT TIME.

  9. What’s the point – what leadership attributes are we looking at here? The labour leadership contentedrs here in the UK have just concluded their isue-based debate on Sky tv; but look what the press in Zambia is covering!

    The dodgy Zambian media is doing that country a very serious deservice – they do not ask the right questions and just cover mediocre stuff.

  10. The truth of the matter is that , at the time Chiluba was a bus conductor , Sata was a police constable. When Sata became a governor, Chiluba was chairman of ZCTU. Both of them have a track record. In this case the misguided guy is Given Lubinda. Both Sata and Chiluba contributed to wellness of Zambians in some way and both contributed to poverty bieng experienced in Zambia now because of their greedyness.
    As for Given whom I used to play darts with at Peacock Bar, I know that he has some sort of asian blood in him. He is not authentic like some of you are meant to believe.

  11. #4 a very good prediction of the football results, only that the situation is opposite of what you had predicted, Zambia 4 Comoros 0. keep blogging man!!!

  12. I thought that Sata was supposed to be pro-poor? Why should it matter if Chiluba was a bus conductor? Why is Sata now insulting the people who most support him – the urban poor? Atleast Chiluba is not on record as being a colonial collaborator. As for being Congolese, Malawian or whatever, that is just a load of rubbish. What happened to African solidarity? The country called ‘Zambia’ is artificial and was created by bazungu in Europe with no African present, so what is so special about being Zambian as opposed to Malian or Namibian?

  13. #23 Lubinda has no issues, he was simply responding to William banda’s wild allegations. LT has issues for making a simple talk a headline.

  14. Given Lubinda, Pakistan, Guy Scot British. Now who is a true Zambian in the PACT? HH my brother, you are waisting time with Bemba monkeys and thieves. Lubinda gave Sata all the support and after all he is very intelligent, but today they are calling him a Pakistan to show he cannot even stand for V/P, more so if he tries they will say he is a lozi. You go so low to merge with a baboon that regard itself coming from a popular tribe but loosing 3 times? Satana snake will never rule Zambia because he was cursed by your cousins the Lozis. He openly challeged the Lozis that he was going to meet them on the battle ground. Who is the looser now? He is the first Minister in the history of Zambia who has no respect for traditional leaders and Lozis beat him up at Mwandi in the mid ninties.VIVA RB

  15. So what if someone is of mixed descent? Big deal dont people have anything better to debate than race? Mmm abena copperbelt! Very backward as usual.

  16. This is intense, I wonder what I am doing on this site, I am not learning anything apart from listening to my uncles, aunties, nephews, nieces, cousins, brothers and sisters tearing each other apart, PLEASE ZAMBIANS, understand that we are admired as one of the most stable countries in the world/Africa/region. What we are exposing does not work well for our pride, unless you want this country to go to destruction/war and works out for you.

  17. Thats the big problem – always being racial, what do you foo/ls get out of it? So what if Given is of mixed race? Given has more brains than you ba chimbwiz. Talk about real issues not personalities thats why monkey peed on your dull prez.

  18. numbala 26 u condom! eh? are u normal iwe? where are u stationed? what do u do for a living chikalaa iwe. awe mune u are a useless chishupu.elo u got pact as yo name too. u skeedmark

  19. William Banda is an EMPTY TIN! I fear for the people because this notorious thug is up to nothing and there is nothing he can offer except violence and misleading blind follower! We need to cage him, he is a threat to the nation!

  20. # 25

    You are too foo..lish to know who is a zambian and who is not,what can you tell me about Lubinda bootlicker,he was born and raised in Zambia, its not his faulty that u have that color! the foreigner is ur William Banda.
    You Retard,argue when its necessary and with facts.

  21. Given was responding to deeportee William Banda’s sentiments about Mr. Sata. The same MMD that deported William, thats the Party he joined so that he is in good books with it. William Supports MMD not because of love but because he owes them a gratitude for bringing him back and because NyamaSoya is also NOW at the helm. Let him make all sorts of NOISE. When the PACT comes into power, he will Defect to it. This is william Banda style to win freedom, but we wont welcome him. he is not a factor. The stage managed defections he is parading wont win MMD votes in Lusaka.

  22. On “[PF/MC Sata] Party Spokesperson, Given Lubinda, told QFM in a telephone interview that Mr Sata was already Branch Chairman for UNIP when Dr Chiluba was a bus conductor… [Hon G.] Lubinda was reacting to Lusaka Province MMD Chairman, William Banda, who was quoted in the press saying people like Mr Sata should stop insulting Dr Chiluba and instead thank him for exposing them to the world” I like that fact that Mr Chiluba FJT has been cut to his size although the details provided here have some time-era error I believe.

    I hope MMD’sWilliam Banda will check himself and do the needful because at the rate he is going, I think he needs to visit a doctor for assessment.

    Have a blessed day all.

    Matt 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all…

  23. How can anyone in his right senses support William Banda? It just shows that those supporting MMD are no different from the way William Banda thinks. You guys have lowered yourselves to his level.
    He might as well start packing because we are going to deport him back to Malawi as soon as the PACT takes over government.

  24. Saddam Hussein is living in zambia…in the name of pf….Given Lubinda, Pakistan…in zambia we know our black iwe ci numbela 33 ukubipa…Lubinda ba ku Pakistan…..for you number 31 i hv no words for you because
    you are very foolish …and i don’t want to kn what you doing that side because it is a shame and i can just see ur flag and already know the story ..you can’t come up with something solid chikala saatanyoko iwe chikala

  25. The Issue is the Time ba SATA was Police Constable, that post was very powerful. No African was allowed to asume managerial posts and we needed people to be inside the system to spy on Bamwisa. Even Chiluba, he could have been ONE. The Problem is the Police had and has rules up to today. No one who is 1metre tall can Join the Foce. Hence Chiluba was not going to be admitted on account of tallness or lack of it.

  26. Sata was never a UNIP Branch Chairman when Chiluba was a Bus conductor.The first time Sata became Branch Chairman of UNIP in Bauleni was after Independemce.Remember that Sata spent most of his time as a police constable during struggle for Independence.Kaunda appointed Sata as District Governor for his talkativeness and nothing more.However Sata later proved than other than being talkative,he could also deliver.It was therefore during his tenure as Governor for Lusaka later to be retitled Senior Governor that Lusaka City Council bought Buses.These buses have been run down and never replaced after his departure.

  27. PACT numbala 40! sataanyoko iwe! what is your problem eh? wat do u think i am doing here? i am working in a top firm and i have assets in that stupid country called zambia of which i relinquished my citizenship for reasons of embarrasment. mambala iwe! walipena iwe ayi? u youself tell us what u are doing? shit head

  28. Well well well, tribal and racist bigotry is flowing freely here just like the waters of a busted sewer tank. We already have strong cessationist sentiments in Barotseland and for any sane Zambian who knows the history of this country, calling a man or woman called Givens Mutafela Lubinda a foreigner is just asking for trouble. The man might be Lenje but from his name you can trace his roots to the West and pushing him around in this racist and tribalistic manner would just collapse hell on the head of this country.

  29. Don’t waste time discussing who is Zambian and who is not.Its time to make a change,the 10 year rule by MMD is a total embarrassment to all Zambians.We are boasting about development brought by the MMD govt,what stupid development???Should development be only on paper????Think of development when the purchasing power of the Zambian kwacha increases.Let the arrogant BWEZANI change his fiscal and monetary policies to see us out of these economic miseries,he’s borrowing too much and spending too carelessly to be acceptable by Zambians.From the look of things PF has a vision for Zambia,the fiscal policy is very well attended to through the reduction of Taxes to create jobs and add more valuable money to people’s pockets.Thats what everyone needs.
