We shall go our way – HH

Share

HH in 2008 Campaign

UNITED Party for National Development (UPND) president Hakainde Hichilema says the way forward for his party is to continue to offer an alternative to the MMD.

He has no intention of forming a pact with the MMD but is willing to work with other opposition parties who share the ideals of his party.

Featuring on a pre-recorded interview with MUVI TV on the evening of March 13, Mr Hichilema said he has no intention of forming a pact with the MMD.

“The people of Zambia ought to choose a team of leaders which will create jobs and business opportunities, especially for young people. We need to employ youths,” he said.

Mr Hichilema said he had learnt a lesson from the Patriotic Front-UPND pact, that people form alliances for different reasons.

“I thought we were all looking forward to serving the Zambian people but I was wrong. At some point, I was told that in Africa, policies don’t really matter, that politicians are more interested in positions,” he said.

“I was told that positions had to be shared quickly in the PF-UPND because that was what mattered most,” he said.

On accusations that UPND is a tribal party, Mr Hichilema said this is a smear campaign by those who have nothing to offer the Zambian people.

“This is an excuse used by people who are trying to bring down others in politics. Those, who preach tribalism unnecessarily cross the line. Nobody chooses to be who they are,” he said.

  1. Welcome back into the political arena UPND. The Zambian people can now breathe a sigh of relief knowing that the MMD finally has a credible opposition unlike PF. PF is not an opposition Zambians need. PF is full of thugs who bark aimlessly at anything and contradict themselves almost all the time. The only thing PF is consistent at is being inconsistent and 90 day economic miracle. One wonders what kind of govt Zambia will have should the impossible situation happen that PF gets into govt.

    PF does not care about Zambia. They only care about sharing positions and enriching themselves. This is why they do not have any policy on development and insult everyone that disagrees with them.

  2. Chief why all of the sadden u start throwing mad at yo former. HH we are grown up people who cant be fooled anymore. We know the intentions UPND had when joining the Pact. Tell me which one apart from becoming a pact presidential candidate. To b honest with u. Its not the degrees or PHDs which one has tht will make him or her run the country well its about the wisdom thts why if u do have time to go through the word of God most of the kings in the bible were asking the wisdom frm God. Plse spare us with yo degrees. I do not hate u i thought you can read between the lines. This year’s elections is between SATA and RB plse dont waste yo time.

  3. Yes HH,better go it alone than an abusive “marriage” with that unstable minded nattering nabob of negativism.

  4. Ba UPND President you have no mince of the aspirations that Mazoka had. He was a true son of Zambia whose vision was clear and precise. Just compromise with your MMD friends. We know what has been going on. You needed to learn real politics, Alas you are still a baby in the making. VIVA PF we shall meet in the field

  5. # 2
    Ba capitalist HH and his party excite u simply cos he is not much of threat to yr hold on the country unlike PF which gives spineless chaps like u sleeples nights.Sata is such a big threat to MMD/RB such that chaps like and those at stae owned media will postpone going to the toilet in order to post anti Sata stories.But no matter how much u write aganist the MAN people will decide like they did in Mporokoso.

  6. Such are virtues of democracy MMD pioneered and is judiciously Guarding for a better Zambia. Democracy is not a system of tribal collusions without shared values. You will enjoy the respect of the people now.

  7. #2
    Watch the way we play the game this year. Talk and talk and we are busy on the ground. Watch how we will grab MMD strong hold in eastern province. Dont hate MICHAEL, hate the game

  8. we have HEARD you say that before. Show us what u are worth now , since we are fed up with mmd .For as far as we know , you cant form the next govt . You may have good reason , but how do you think the zambian people will take that . of course with a lot of regret. and how do u think that will affect their view of you . negatively of course. GOOD LUCKY because now you need it

  9. Ha ha ha ha, he is going it alone with Kalusa. That will be some government. No leadership, no control. On the job training. This guy must join MMD if he can be of some meaning to Zambian politics. Sata ignored him and for sure Sata has been vindicated when he called HH as under five. Probably even the five year kids are now feeling smarter than this political novice called HH.

    About tribalist party, he should say that to Maestro. In fact the mere fact that he is talking about it, means it is affecting his growth potential. Who doesn’t know the premise under which UPND operates and exists?

  10. Sata is vindicated for calling HH an under 5. His political behaviour confirms this. How can under 5 be obssesed with power that he wanted the PACT presidency at all costs? Now is is busy insinuating as if he is not power hungry when its the reaason he left the PACT becouse he could not steal it as he did under UDA.We wish this under 5 a fullfilling political adventure that will end this year in september when Zambians through the aid of the PVT decide who to take to Nkwazi house as they recall redundant RB.

  11. Walasa Kalos2121

    you are a wise man. Come to Lundazi and we can give u more wisdom. In Lundazi Donchi Kubeba- we sale more PF wisdom

  12. # 17, I will very soon. After all the three wise men came from the East. We have something in common, you are the wise men, and I am from Luapula. If Jesus was a Zambian, he would have been from Luapula. He loved fishermen. He would have been walking on Mweru and Bangweulu. LOL

  13. @ #7 Red Card-abena libala south

    Who would be scared of PF and Mr. Sata? PF has lost 3 elections so far. What makes you think they’ll win this one? Mr. Sata is not a threat, he is just empty. He cannot articulate any development programs besides 90 day economic miracle and his thugs in PF egg him on. He does not have a policy on anything and that is why UPND has deserted him.

    Mr. Sata thought he could get to state house on the back of UPND but it has failed. UPND has given a reason why they backed out and I quote, “I was told that in Africa, policies don’t really matter, that politicians are more interested in positions. I was told that positions had to be shared quickly in the PF-UPND because that was what mattered most” end quote.

  14. cont from #20

    That statement gives credence to my statement that PF does not care about Zambia. They are more concerned with positions than formulating policies that will move Zambia forward economically. Even their cadres cannot articulate any sort of development PF intends to bring to Zambia because PF does not have any.

    UPND is a credible opposition because at least with UPND, intelligent dialogue on issues affecting the nation is possible. With Mr. Sata and his PF, it would just be character assassination and barking aimlessly at anything.

    PF doesn’t even have confidence in itself which is why they (PF) and their NGOs have already started singing the rigging song. It is because they (PF & their NGO’s) know defeat is inevitable.

  15. MMD is not afraid of Sata, but for sure they are afraid of PVT. That is what will defeat MMD in the coming elections. Sata is not the threat, but the people and the PVT. MMD is spending sleepless nights over the two.

  16. 99% of character assassinations in Zambia comes from MMD cadres. Some of them are here barking like bull dogs. You know who.

  17. #7 Red Card-abena libala south
    The Mporokoso seat makes 1/150 or 0.6% of the zambian electoral landscape.It is not enough barometer to measure the popularity of your thug party.If your leader was popular as you claim,why has he not formed government?this is his 4th attempt at the poll and I bet he is losing again, the popular chap ha ha ha.

  18. Mr. Capitalist #20, dont forget the thuggery in Mufumbwe and those thugs terrorising people at Inter-city under william. PF does not and will not condon such behaviour.

    If Mr. Sata is empty why do you talk about him. He keep you so busy and all your b***ls are up becoz of unknown fear and hatred. Talking about HH, with due respect adults behave like adults. I would have loved him to be patient and grow up a bit.

  19. Sad day, vey Sad day Indeed. Mr. Capitalist – 3 E’s steering economic growth # 20 PF gives MMD sleepless nights. The MMD knew OUT of POWER had the PACT succeeded. What else did they get pre-occupied for to see the PACT break??? What was their interest??? If the PACT was not a threat to their hold on to power whey where allover trying to mak it break? Mr. Sata could have lost 3 elections but in the last 2 he became the 2nd biggest Opposition party and that record scares the MMD now.

  20. abena sata na hh nima fontini. they are not carrying interests of Zambians but their own interests when they are seeking these high offices. time wasters they are.

  21. now you PF blind followers dont think you are more Zambian than others. You barely know what is going on. I know mulina Njala but lets work for the things we want to enjoy.

  22. @ #26 Lundazi Zealot

    I talk about Mr. Sata because he is empty. And following your statement, “PF does not and will not condon such behaviour” end quote. Hahahahahahahahaha, you cannot be serious.

    As for Mr. Hichilema, he has shown that he is more grown up that Mr. Sata. Whilst Mr. Hichilema was busy trying to dialogue with PF on the appropriate policies for Zambia’s development, Mr. Sata was more obsessed with positions. Tell me, who is the grown up in that situation?? Most definitely not Mr. Sata.

  23. # 26, Lundazi Zealot, these people forget so quickly. Read their writing. It is true evidence of Thuggery. Who calls someone a thug apart from the real thug? Who says other people are barking, if not a thug? Only thugs, bullies who cannot scare us because they have no means will resort to such. True thugs at work. Watch their thuggery which has been inculcated in them by their boss William Banda. In their desperation, they will call us all sorts of names. But we shall keep our eyes on the ball. They tried with UPND, the under five HH, fell for it. Now he is left with nothing but, defending the tribalism in his party. Sorry, we are not ready for anything but, VICTORY.

  24. in the first place does sata know what a pact is. Ok what does Zambia need ? to put Sata in as president so that he goes in the History books as having been in state house, wait a minute he has not achieved anything to my knowledge to grant him that. let him work had for it.

  25. HH please dont appologise for being Tonga.You are a zambian just like anyone. The Zambians people will decide wisely this time around ABASH OLD COBRA…over 100 years! VIVA HH

  26. Kalos2121,
    Clever mind, wonderfu progressive thinking. I can only agree with you. I have tried also to analyse their thought patterns. Below the acceptable levels. Kalos2121, lets get busy

  27. I apologies for calling HH a fontini the Man is so honourable that he was couragious enough to announce the Pullout of UPND from the Pact thumbs Up HH. You deserve all respect.

  28. My belief is that probably some people within PF and UPND could have been paid to distabilise the pact, watch Kabimba and Kalusa

  29. Why are people interested in our manifesto. Read it on internet or come to our office. Ask mumbi since he was Secretary. Why has he not talked about it

  30. HH is a under five in politics, he has got no backbone to stand on. His followers will bark like mad hyenas following cow with sleeping sickness or dakete. Discipline is a corner stone for any organisation to grow and mature. How could a man hand picked by his tribemates lead a political party which was founded on principles of we are all one, lead when it is turned into Mwandia Mweka Badala. HH is still amature no wonder Doris said he needs to stand as an MP before he can lead a political party. Imagine any well thinking Zambian will never tolerate even a centimetre to allow HH to rule this country. Ruphia Banda told HH his wife is Mwenye no wonder she is not seen in public. HH is a son of a dog. This shows how Ruphia and the MMD view HH/ UPND. A dog remains a dog so Ruphis is a master

  31. Good bye UPND we will miss you in the Pact. However, you have a constitutional right to go it alone. We in PF will concentrate on the much needed rural vote especially in southern rural if we can only manage to get at least any number will be a plus to us. We will make sure to give people their choice to represent them in the parliament. Luapula is ours I just recently came from the area. The so called ‘rebel’ MPs are unheard of even MMD will not risk adopting them. Let the best party take the day come elections. Be blessed all.

  32. Of the three main parties in Zambia, two are in total disarray. One stands out strong and scares the other two. One is not a factor, the other one is busy kicking out its people in fear of change of intra-party leadership. Only one is a people’s party. The other two are trying to stay afloat. One is an appointments only party, the other is purely regional and has an educated, but lost president. Probably he read a wrong book on Zambian politics. The other one is led by William, oh sorry, Rupiah Banda who seem to have realized that his trips will cost him the presidency. But, too late. We have seen it all.

  33. Im off to work . PF has remained mute beause there is alot of things to expose HH and Kalusa. PF has accepted the decision taken buy UPND and no comments made out of context against HH and his followers. Therefore HH should stop talking about PF/Sata. Your plans HH are well known.You wanted to dribble Sata thinking the Degree Clause in the constitution will stop Sata from standing but this is not a case. Your MP stood side by side with the MMD adopt this clause. Now you see now you don’t. This is the name of the political game. Rest in peace.

  34. #43 Im not insulting HH neither anyone but reminding people who are the followers of HH that the marriage he wants to get into with MMD will be a bitter pill to take. Ruphia insulted HH openly as stated on no 43. Maestro insults Sata every time he blogs. I have never heard Maestro write anything good about Sata/PF .

  35. I see UPND having good chances this year. They have support in Southern and North Western. With serious lobbying, the can get reasonable votes from thier cousins in Western. In Central they have a big chance since it consists of the Bantu Botatwe who cannot forsake the young man. Finnaly on the Copperbelt, the interlectuals can vote for UPND while thugs go for PF

  36. I can see that most of you didnt watch the quorted TV program oN Mobi TV. I also now believe that most bloggers here stay in areas where this broadcast couldnt reach them because they are ku bulaya or in areas where Mobi is not accessible. If only you saw how he articulated these issues you could have been proud to have him as your leader. HH is good and there is nothing you people can say that will subtract that from what he is made of.

    MY HUMBLE PRAYER IS THAT GOD MUST MAKE SATA WIN THIS YEAR SO THAT WE AS ZAMBIANS MAY LEARN FROM EXPERIENCE. ITS ONLY AFTER EXPERIENCING WHAT WILL COME WITH THE PF THAT WE ARE GOING TO KNOW GOOD WHEN IT IS PRESENTED TO US.

  37. HH this is the best move you have made sir, to tell you the truth UPND has gained ground here in the Copperbelt. PF will be shocked to wake up and find CB is for HH. He will regrate having introduced HH to CB. Viva HH, viva HH………

  38. Why is there such immense lack of honor is the so called ‘honorable’. He knew that the Zambian people would go for the pact no matter what, but goes and pulls out just before the race begins….duh. I smell a heavy bag of rotten ptatoes on someone’s shoulder. Eventually somebody will unload the burden……

  39. # 47 ZONDA MU TONGA UZALEMA says:

    You are confusing may be its you who did not watch that program becoz the said was not on MOBI but MUVI TV can you revisit you facts and make them right.

  40. yes its true MMD or SATA has many chances of wining thjan HH,but you we want it or not HH is the best candidate of all to lead thi country forward,the man has brains that none of them has.we love you HH.God bless you in your compains.you have my VOTE!!!!!!!!!!

  41. #50 Tukababwino

    SORRY BA TUKABABWINO. YOU ARE RIGHT IT WAS MUVI TV. ACTUALLY IT IS EVEN ON NOW. THOSE THAT DIDNT WATCH CAN TUNE TO MUVI TV NOW THEY WILL BE ABLE TO SEE HIM

    THANKS FOR THE CORRECTION.

  42. @CLZ Executive Director, what intellectuals are you talking about. the writing is on the wall. its all over for the young man. i really feel sorry for him. believe me soon UPND will be like FDD and people will start abandoning him.

  43. PF Supporter characteristics
    1. An individual highly influenced by populist sentiments without thinking through the consequencies of such an idea. (Eg I’ll scrap RTSA, ERB, etc) 2. Believes in economic amateur ideas by their leader, such as reducing taxes before increasing tax base.
    3. Does not believe in democracy or at least does not understand it – there’s nothing democratic about not holding a convention, Sata has been in the centre of many undemocratic decision whilst in MMD such as barring certain member fro attending conventions, Sata soley appoints executives of his party, never held convetion in over a decade
    4. An individual whose decision to support PF is based on mob influence unlike an independent objective assessment
    5. Comfortable with Satas countless change of…

  44. Imagine the confusion brought by PF arose after the PACT won the elections! It is better this has happened now than after elections. Many bloggers are lumbasting HH when in fact he acted diligently. Sometimes I wonder why people who crave for a better life follow PF, a party without any serious economic development agenda. Poverty will increase and many people will demise due to hunger and youths, especially graduates, will be depressed due to lack of jobs. How can sharing jobs be a priority over a clear pathway to economic development? Funnies and rebukes and all sorts of trivial issues that SATA represent will not feed the country. Wake up Zambia!!!!

  45. MY BELOVED ZAMBIANS AND THOSE WHO CHERISH PEACE,RESPECT FOR ONE ANOTHER,SOCIAL,ECONOMICAL AND GOOD GOVERNANCE I AM URGING YOU TO LEAVE ARROGANCE,INSULTS,TRIBAL SONGS AND CORRUPTION TO SOME CURSED MMD AND PF SUPPORTERS FOR THEY ARE ANNOINTED TO DO AND PREACH EVIL AGAINST EVEN MAN MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD -IN SHORT THEY DONT NBELIEVE IN GOD THEY BELIEVE IN EVOLUTION.
    ADVICE TO HH/UPND SUPPORTERS IS THAT VENGENCE IS NOT A VIRTUE. KEEP AND PREACH LOVE AND SOCIAL,ECONOMICAL AND GOOD GOVERNANCE NOT FOR HH,BANDA OR SATA BUT FOR ZAMBIANS .
    ZAMBIANS THE WAY FORWARD IS HH/UPND.

  46. I would rather watch the calamity in Japan than this lost guy. What is he going to say that he has never said before? He failed to control Kalusa, to me that is the litmus test for a good leader. Now, let him disappear. He is just wasting people’s precious time. He clearly had it, right in his hands, but due to lack of foresight, he let it slip away. Probably he has no advisers. Next time you meet him, give him a rope. I will reimburse you.

  47. HH for Zambia!!!!! Kwa Bulozi, Luapula, North Western, Copperbelt, Central, Lusaka and Southern. Now geting into Northen and Eastern. Youths are for HH! Old people cry for their grandchildren.
    Bravo for the Mumbwa Rally of yesterday. Thousands of people braved the heavy rains, never moved away just to listen to their Younger President to be, Hakainde Hichilema and other bright leaders.
    Vote HH for President!

  48. Stop writing in capitals. It is not the size of the words that matters. It is the logic behind. Check your bible. Is it in capital letters? Ya, everything kano fye twaponena mofye. When are you going to learn?

  49. SUNNY CHINTOMBWA ALIAS HH IMWE TETI MUTUBEPE ATI YOU CAN STAND ON YOUR OWN……YOU CAN ONLY SURVIVE ON OTHER PEOPLES BACKS, TEIMWE BA UNDER FIVE BUSHE?……..DURING THE DAY YOU SAY YOU CAN GO IT ALONE…..IN THE NIGHT YOU’RE BUSY COURTING BA MMD….KWATI MAULE…..BYE BYE POLIO!!!!!!! IFWE NI DON’T KUBEBA MAYO!!!

  50. PF characteristics cont’
    6. An individual who believes in young vibrrant leadership contradicts oneslef by following a 70 year old smoker.
    7. An individual high drwan to controversy, rumours and name calling sentiments than straigh, progressive ideas.
    8. Most likely knows nothing about the PF manifesto apart from the logo, maybe because it changes many time and any where.
    9. An individual who prefer a leader who sing about his suufering unlike how to get one out of it

  51. It’s obvious from the comments above that only Kaponyas who are scared of lossing elections will bark around without thinking. Well done Mr. Capitalist – 3 E’s steering economic for trying to pump some sense into their thick skulls!!!

  52. #39 your PF is tribal…we know it. stick to the princilpe of democracy. look at the top of PF it is all bemba’s, except for Bo Inonge who we are not sure what she is doing in that party. do not hind beyind the truith. You can insult all you want but facts remain. PF was formed based on dreams after Chiluba showed Sata the door out of MMD. I would like to thank Chiluba for us for having done this nation a fovour.

  53. INSULTING HH/UPND AND CALLING TONGAS ALL SORTS OF NAMES IS NOT A MANIFESTO.
    AND THOSE WHO ARE STILL CRYING OVER HH TO JOIN MMD MUST ALSO KNOW THA THAT IS NOT MANIFESTO. SO BOTH CRIES AND PROPAGANDA WILL NOT GUARANTEE ZAMIANS SOCIAL,ECONOMICAL AND GOOD GOVERNANCE .
    MY BEST AND HONESTY ADVICE IS THAT THOSE WHO MEAN WELL FOR THEMSELVES,THEIR CHILDRN AND FUTERE ZAMBIA FOLLOW HH/UPND WHO GUARANTEES SOCIAL,ECONOMICAL AND GOOD GOVERNANCE.
    I LOVE YOU ZAMBIANS.

  54. UPND have leveled the playing ground for politics in Zambia. Now let us put the ball on the ground and have fair play no insults let us bring real issues for Zambia to go forward. The best decision UPND has made this year is to leave the pact.

  55. # 60 KALOS 2121……EPAKWABATI CHAKUKALIPA NGAWABELENGA……YA, YOU THINK SMALL, AND ALL ABOUT YOU IS SMALL………SMALL HEAD, SMALL EYES LIKE THE CHINESE, SMALL BRAIN, SMALL PARTY SMALL **** AND SO ON AND SO FORTH!!

  56. zambia is not ready for political change bcos MMD is doing very well. the opposition is very weak and has no spine or balls. the opposition is impotent and canot get a penile erection bcos of no stimulation from the population who are solidly behind RB and MMD. ba sata naba hh nibachibola nobukala teti bwime

  57. PF supporters tell us why we should vote for SATA tell us the base line economic and social development programme on your Agenda. Tell us how our land will be distributed when u form government. Are u going to use the Lusaka City Council FORMULA?
    When we oppose you in government are u not going to match with tugs armed with guns and matchets like u dd in Chawama? are u not going to be withdrawing money in trunks like u attempted to do when u were priniting the 3rd republican constitution?
    Are u not going to go for the 3rd term like u supported Chiluba?

  58. Did some one see the PF shadow cabnet? Useless and un inspiring. definately, we do not need such a cabnet and govt in zed. this will be taking zambia centuries back. even the RB cabnet and govt is better. Just wait and check the UPND cabnet. Yes i said wait and check. You will definately give them your vote!!

  59. It is not HH and Sata who have broken the Pact.It is the devil and his deamons.We should not blame these two.The pact was formed on the premise that it will remove Zambians from poverty and backwardness.The devil being the author of backwardness has made it sure that it is broken.Zambians should open their spiritual eyes and see what is in the spiritual realm.Sata and HH are good leaders that can perform wonders if only they work together.Those of us who are blaming them,I pause,this question to you.How many of you prayed for God’s intervention in the survival of the Pact?The devil has stolen your baby and you are there rejoicing.It is a big shame!People should learn to be on their knees and not critising always.We need to pray for our leaders and our nation.Time is now not tomorrow.

  60. president Rupia Banda called HH mwana wagalu kaibwa katoto…SATA has been very respectful of HH and his political prospects under PF were very promising but this guy decides to leave by exaggerating problems….the problem with southers or Tongas is that they think they are very educated high rated and yet they are NOT!!THESE are just tribal chaps who will never rule this nation…PF Political PROWESS are have reached the highest peak and am very certain that they will beat MMD

  61. #69 Cont…..
    Are u not going to continue to insult and dethroning chiefs like u were doing when u were MMD
    are u NOT going to call all ZAMBIANS above the age of 35 yrs under 5,
    are goping to appoint all important Ministerial positions from your non Tribal BEMBA land like u have done now, and the way you dd when u were in MMD where all important parastatal positions and govt. Agencies where occupied by Bembas.
    Are going to stop belittling all other tribes and call them names, and respect only your tribes men BEMBAs……..
    ARE U GOING TO STOP INSULTING US?

  62. misrepresented RBish story. HH please just tell the people who you are, what you have done and what you are going to do. Simple. Because all i know about u is u went to UNZA from a village in SP and made money from the privatisation of Zambian mines in collaboration with Dr Fred and other plunderers

  63. SERIOUS CHALLENGE TO BRAINY AND REASONING ZAMBIAN YOUTH ; ARE YOU GOING TO CONTINUE BEING USED BY PEOPLE LIKE VJ,MABENGA,RB AND OTHER OLD MEN WHO HAS BEEN SAYING YOUTHS ARE FUTURE LEADERS WHILE THEY DONT WANT TO GIVE YOU CHANCE.THAT IS WHY SOME AND MANY OF THE YOUTHS YOU HAVE NO JOBS BECAUSE THE OLD MEN HAVE OVERSTAYED IN GOVERNMENT TO SECURE JOBS FOR THEIR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES.
    SOME OF YOU YOUTHS YOU ARE BEING INDOCRINATED WITH TRBAL SONGS AND INSULTS JUST TO BE USED TO PROTECT YOUR OLD PRFERED TRBES MEN AT YOUR CURRENT AND FUTERE SOCIAL,ECONOMICAL AND GOOD GOVERNANCE WHICH GUARANTEES YOU JOB CREATION ON MERIT NOT ON ONLY RELYING ON BEING USED FOR POLITICAL PURPOSES. MY SINCERE ADVICE TO YOUTHS IS SUPPORT HH/UPND NOT FOR ANY OTHER THAN JOB CREATION AND OPPORTUNITIES. I AM A PARENT,

  64. useless underfive chaps your so called angel failed to answer the question from mwansa.thats why they say**** can be educated but are very dull pipo you can tell the way they talk on skyfm.eg cloud ,mweetwa ,hamyanze and proud from garden.

  65. What is HH’s reasoning, how will he win the presidency? It just does not make sense, he is not Mazoka who took Lusaka and Copperbelt those have now being taken by Sata and PF. So how is he going to win?

  66. It is depressing how all of a sudden Zambians have sunk so low as to debate they Nations development on tribal lines!!! Wake up Zambians we are not looking for a Chief but a PRESIDENT for our country!!!! Its about a person of integrity,hardwork,national and international appeal not a chief u guys!!! THAT IS CHEAP.

  67. People please, let us get our facts straight! Zambia does not have an “ELECTRAL COLLEGE” system (winner takes all) like the USA. Say if one wins a province, they take all the votes/pints from that province. So even if HH wins, say SP, WP or Central P, there will still be plenty of votes to be had by the other parties. It is the “total votes” from all nine provinces that counts. Therefore, even if the the so called “Bantu Botatwe” in Central Province were to collectively vote for HH, which is a silly conclusion to begin with, HH is still not assured of a victory, or even coming in 2nd. That is why regionalism is bad politics in Zambia. Sata also runs the same risk!!!!

  68. By the way, Central Province is not home to Ilas, Lenjes, and Tongas alone. There are other tribes like Lalas, Swakas, Solis, extra; who might not necessarily base their vote on grounds (tribal) some of you are hinging your opinions on—-lets get real here! I think Shikapwasha is Ila or Lenje (if I am not mistaken), so to say all “Bantu Botatwe” will support HH is really shallow thinking!!!!

  69. Ba LT, what is “Your comment is awaiting moderation” when I can already see my post?!! Are you guys simply testing out your technology on my inocent comment on what is suppose to be #81 above?!!!!!!!!!

  70. #78 Dont tell lies, Copperblet was never taken by Mazoka. its actually the province which made him lose to MMD. Bwacha continuency. Chiluba campained there in BEMBA , while mazoka sttugled. Bembas puplicly said they can not vote for a TONGA.yet no one called the tribalists.

  71. Ba HH twalishiba mwaliba tribal ilyo mwilafisa.Your intention was to be president but not to serve Zambian people and you sponsored the degree clause and age limit.Now that things could not work out please join your friend in MMD so that you can remain an under five party for ever.Mazoka was a great son of Africa who practised no tribal but fair politics.We will see how many sits in parliament you going to have apart from your sourthern strong hold.

  72. PF says, “In Africa what matters are political positions and not policies” what kind of thinking is this? what a party!!!!!!! Glad UPND disengaged from this group of Kaponyas. Viva HH!!!

  73. #67 you are write about kalos 2121!!!!!!!!!but you should also change your tiltle.dont call UPND useless coz it you who is useless!!VIVA HH/UPND.

  74. Huuh!!!
    Zambian politics are really getting rough by the day and has even lost meaning of what Politics and leadership really should be. Frankly speaking – I dont see a leader for Zambia come these elections!!! Most of these guys are busy forming parties simply because they are all “Power Hungry” and some have taken the Presidency like a Personal to Holder thing! Why is it that everybody wants to be president! PACT – both wanted to ride on each other’s back – SATA; Namukula; you need to RETIRE! HH – be focused and stay on; you will one day get there.

  75. The truth is that ZAMBIA wont change much after 2011 elections. Politicians are almost there for themselves and leave crumbs for the marjority. This is how the game has been played for centuries in the so called democratic world. Even Kwame Nkrumah used to pretend to be socialist when his bathtab was made of gold. The North Korean leader lives like a king in a so called communist country when his peapole are starving.
    Why do you think the USA, with all their money still have poor people. I mean a country that gives BILLIONS in AID having poor people.
    So as usuall, people will vote for the same politicians and life will be as is. Thats the reality of life.
    Meanwhile HH/SATA/RB will remain comfortable and GOOD LUCK TO THE POOR SUFFERING MASSES OF ZAMBIA!!

  76. I think most PF supporters on this blog have personality disorders. I wonder what type jobs most of you PF chaps do because from your contributions (its all insults), i wonder if you chaps can get a serious job. What a shame!!!!!!

  77. On “He [UPND president] has no intention of forming a pact with the MMD but is willing to work with other opposition parties who share the ideals of his party” which he expressly repeated in ““I thought we were all looking forward to serving the Zambian people but I was wrong. At some point, I was told that in Africa, policies don’t really matter, that politicians are more interested in positions,”” I salute HH and the UPND and also inform MMD and PF that tough luck for you who think you can ride to State House on HH’s and UPND’s back.

    To all well meaning bloggers, UPND has moved on and let us move with HH on discussing real issues that effect ourselves as Zambians instead of wasting time on the PF and PF cadres that have a manifesto policy of insulting all…

  78. The under 5 sentiments from Rupiah and Sata are demeaning to Youths and am calling on youths not to vote for such leaders because if they mention that to HH they mention it to all youths and that means youths will always be sidelined in terms of senior positions in these parties coz of lack of political experience..am calling all youths to vote wisely and think of the majority of zambians who are suffering and lack of development in many parts of zambia.. lets put people whose interest are for zambians not people who have selfish interests..viva UPND!!!!!!!!!!!and HH

  79. #73 The Inquistive_ you are not different from the Boers or the white Americans who once declared a black person would never rule South Africa or the USA. You are a useless person who is far worse off than an uneducated racist. Your hatred for Tongas is a strong inferiority complex and you will die a very hopeless chap. in thhis day and age, there is no way you can shamelessly state those words of hate. Your children will unfortunately grow up with the stone-age mindsrt and none in your generation will amoungt to anything if that is your attitude in a free zambia. You should be ahsamed of yourself.

  80. HH you will never rule Zambia!!!the best you should do now is just to join the MMD so that you can help them to lose this years elections.for those who are thinking that PF wont win this years elections you need a medical doctor before its too late because even a blind man can see that Ba Sata baleteka unomwaka!!since 2001 yes we have being losing the elections but in each election we have being reducing the gap and our party has being growing big and bigger each election year!2008 we lost with a very small gap and remember that ECZ was using 2006 register to vote but all the same they felt our heat,so this time around with the new young voters we are winning,we dont even need HH and his kantemba party to win these elections……donchi kubeba!!!!!

  81. this is what i want to hear what you will do to create jobs and business opportunities. we need a detailed plan so we can make informed decisions on polling day. that same should go for PF tell us your plans. the one thing am sure about the MMD’s economic plans which are actually good

  82. Sata-n will never be president. Am MMD but if we were to leave office, I think HH would be the best. Not this analog man Satan.

  83. Anything to do with Tonga envokes reactions based on tribalism. Historically, Tongas are known to have relinquished power to support the Northerners (read Samuel Chipungu ‘Guardians S. ‘Guardians in their Time’). Simon Kapwepwe openly declared his hatred for Tongas (ZNBC archives, 1971/72). I expect the new information age generation to be a little bit more tolerant than our forefathers were. we can tone down language against the Tonga people because we never know what God may be preparing them for. Hitler hated the Jews to an extent he killed over six million. But he died a loser while those he hated control half global wealth. The Enquisitive #73 ( should grow up).

  84. Only one resolution for 2011. Vote HH or Sata. I, my family members and friends will vote any of the two, whosoever seems to have higher chances of winning and kicking MMD out. finish school in May and shall be home well in time to go round seeing elderly folks and tell them to take all the goodies from MMD but without remorse vote for HH or Sata. Period!

  85. Well said indeed President HH. I have listened to the interview and you have convinced my conscience is voting for you. Your entry into the pact was well intended except these PF just said twakene fye fipuna without ironing out how these ifipuna shall operate interse. Thank you so much for spelling out the issue of tribalism. I had a problem with my Wife. I am Ngoni and she is Tonga. Please bloggers no more tribal tagging but lets jointly fight common problems affecting us. Hunger does not discriminate whether one comes from East, South, West or North. My wife earns more than me and extends wealth to the East without discrimination.

  86. Interesting why does MMD trying to ask UPND to join them. Looks like they understand that UPND has credible people. Good thinking MMD.

  87. HH is the man of the moment. His character brings sanity to Zambian politics and exposes the schemers and liars of the type of Sata.

  88. Honestly, Zambians ask yourselves this question, Why can someone be in politics for over 40 years, what is that which makes one not to leave politics for others as age catches up with you and the answer is greedy, taking politics as a Job and that you are not employable anywhere, hence without politics you cannot survive. This time around these are not the leaders we want as they have caused more damage to our society of reducing us to zero for their own benefit. We cannot be creating Jobs for people when us remain in poverty. Remember that people like Sata, VJ Mwanga, Rupiah Banda, Munkombwe etc have been in politics for many years giving us the same lies that they are the best when they are the worst. All meaning zambians regardless of tribe, lets move forward as we have only one ZED.

  89. #94 Please lets be realistic the writing is on the wall, if we really want MMD out of power the one with a formidale force against MMD is SATA. If more people concentrate on SATA then there will be a change of government. As for HH he is hard, very hard to sale.

  90. # 95 Maestro on your “blah blah blah” the word if affect not effect

    Matthew chapter fimo fimo verse fimbi fimbi

  91. HH is the best man for our nation now. We need people who can get to politics for service and not Jobs. HH move forward, those who call you names are incompetent guys who have nothing to offer Zambians. We know these recycled politicians are scared of you because they fear that when people test the best, they will never go back to them as they will lose value. Honestly they are not there to share jobs on the expense of our poverty. We need new blood in the name of HH, Mlupi, Chirwa, Mutati, Simbao, Kakoma etc for Zambia to move forward. Some of the people representing us in our GRZ are so embarrasing that they cannot articulate any issue internationally, because we have gotten used to having poor quality leadership. Can we have people of Knowledge and substance as leaders in Zambia.

  92. For sure HH is a better candidate than MCS however SATA has undisputedly more support than HAIKAINDE and this is a very tricky situation that we find ourselves in as UPND supporters.
    I am one person who has called MCS and his supporters names but this has not changed anything in terms of the political support that SATA enjoys especially in Urban Areas.

    Maestro what is the best strategy of winning this years election if is we go separate as UPND?

  93. The problem I have with HH is that he has no CHARISMA. To me he does’nt have anything LEADERSHIP on him. Sad but true. He can make a good MP though.

  94. ….#98 ….Kopala…………You seem to miss the point yet right at the same time.You said ‘HH you will never rule Zambia’ . Well, its is true HH will never RULE Zambia but he shall instead LEAD ZAMBIA. You seem to be stagnated will old rulers like SATA mentality but this modern era is for LEADERS and HH is one. Its good you admit.

  95. #106, sorry this time around we are not looking for empty tins who make the loudest noise, as such Sata as a recycled politician has no room, hence we cannot vote for him. It is not just about winning elections, but about substance and quality. It is better to lose elections with principles and be in the opposition than winning as a bunch of jokers without any agenda for the nation. Responsibility, dignity, quality and attaching meaning to politics is what matter to some of us, we have to feel responsible for our nation for us to move forward with the development agenda. So as long as Sata remain one of those who failed us before by taking politics as a Job to ruin our economy, then he does not have our vote. VIVA HH WITH A TEAM OF QUALITY.

  96. # 105 Muyangana …..Well said indeed. you are wise. In addition to it why should a sane youth continue crying for the likes of Sata & RB? when the very youth has potential to become leaders just as they were already leaders at 18, 28 and 30? unfortunatley there are youths over 30 that still advocate for these old madalas. Muyangana.. you and i should continue being objective by bridging the gap. Let these guys retire coz continuously supporting them is suffocating ourselves, children and later generations.

  97. #110, we respect your opinion, but this time around we do not need Charisma as the criteria for choosing any leader, as those with such qualities have failed us before. It does not matter how louder you speak as long as you are a recycled politician, depending on politics for survival, you have no room to lead our nation. Our zambian politicians have taken advantage of our poverty and continued to manipulate us in the name of experience, but now we want to show them that they cannot be practicing their experience by reducing us to zero while we are watching.

  98. Ba Anne #100 What leadership charisma are looking for? Insulting other people publicly like what sata does? HH is just the best candidate amongst the top three contenders and the truth must be said the way it is. Its sad in Zambia we dont pay attention to what political parties have to offer but Just looking at who is saying what and what tribe are they. USA is dominated by whites but they voted for a black OBAMA because they listened to his promises not his tribe or colour. He has my vote to clear my consious.

  99. @108, wanji,

    Monkey tactics will not help you. PF is not more popular than UPND for your own info, it used to be three years ago – it is history. 2011 is open for all and a 50-50 for all players for that matter. PF rides an old canoe that capsizes midway the river. This time it will not even be a river, but sea! Your paddling sticks will not help you. The Taiwanees have ditched you. Very soon they will even revoke that fake degree they gave you.

  100. #112 Muyangana, I wish we had more sensible people like you in Zambia, unfortunately the opposite is true at the moment. Zambians enjoy suffering! We have a very good opportunity this year to get rid of the thieves but here we are, we want to replace RB with Sata who are basically the same. The one one we want to replace with is even worse. I really pity the Zambian children, as long as fossils like Sata are still around Zambia is doomed!

  101. we are behind UPND not a thug without a vision but politics to earn a living and insult other tribes,no one is more zambian than other,HH in 2006 came third coz he was just 4 months in politics as to Sata who has been in politics for over 40 years,in 2008 he was 2 years 4 months in politics Sata was over 42 year failing in politics,this year HH will be 5 year and some months and getting momentum on politic scene as a credible guy,those who have poor analisis on political games we say watch the space,by the way who told you that a tonga person will not rule this country,are you God’s spokes persons???wait for God to decide for zambia,just imagine if Sata was to quite politics how can he look,he is looking for a living…look at HH very vibrant,energetic,intelligent and good management…

  102. #2, 22 Mr. Capitalist – 3 E’s steering economic growth,

    From your statements, you sounds like a real MMD THUG at inter City Bus Terminal or Kulima tower in Lusaka terrorizing Zambian travelers, in this case online bloggers.

    At the same time, you afraid of Sata and PF, as it appears (from your statements) to be a credible threat to President Banda and the MMD in the forth coming General Elections.

    I can tell that Sata and PF are winning the General elections (mind you am not voting Sata nor PF), but your mercenary action of attacking Sata for no apparent reason makes Zambians to support Sata.

    Ulibe nzelu in your head, iwe mambala iwe.

    I have respect for HH (as he represent our generation and not Rupiah Banda and his MMD which is old) but your support for HH is suspicious…

  103. #113 He is hard to you because maybe you choose who to listen to, but if you will one day listen to what he says, he will be eacy to sell. I know the easy to sell ones are corrupt and will use every lie to win your heart and by the time you realise that you have been deceived it is too late, as they say easy things to come are so dangerous. This time around, it’s not about who sells faster but who has to ability to drive the economy for all zambians to benefit not only politicians the way the situation has been. We vote for them, when they win they remove their kids from government schools and take them abroad on the expense of our poverty. They want to benefit on our sweat, if they want luxury, let them work for their families before getting into politics to serve us.

  104. @110, Anne,

    I assume FTJ Chiluba is good for you since he is charasmatic ? Beware of charismatic people; most of them are cornmen. Get a boyfriend who is charismatic and he will most likely break your heart ! Choose politicians of substance and you will be taking this country forward, ba Anne.

  105. # 104 MUYANGANA Well said indeed. In addition to your wise incite…. imagine some youths still cry for RB or Sata when they themselves could take up the challenge. These old folks have been leaders at 18, 28 and 30 and up to now they harbor a notion that we cannot take up the mantle ourselves. It is a flawed perception. These old guys should retire and pave way to the new era coz their continuous hold on to power is causing political constipation to us, children and generations to come.

  106. 110 Anne…. Though i respect your opinion you seem to miss a point on the subject of leadership..There are various approaches to leadership studies. You point CHARISMA as one factor you look for in a leader. You however, negate appreciating various leadership skills such as THE CONTINUUM APPROACH which looks at leadership from the perspective of AUTOCRATIC and DEMOCRATIC. Going by your thinking SATA exhibits Autocratic tendencies and HH can be plotted on the Middle point of the continuum (in my case its ideal). Autocratic leadership does not appeal for modern times as these. This makes SATA ruled out. HE IS NOT THE RIGHT CANDIDATE.

  107. We need to bring sanity to politics, by choosing quality leadership, as this time around politics has no meaning in zambia, because we have left it to the unemployed, people who cannot survive without our tax, and such people can go to great heights to even divide the nation for their own good. Losing elections for them means no jobs, but we cannot be suffering for their good. We should learn to learn people’s truck records before putting them to power and these same recycled politicians have taken us for granted because we forget their dirty deeds so fast. If Sata can take us forgranted like this by believing that we have forgotten his dirty deeds, tomorrow it may be V.J Mwaanga wanting to become president for our beloved nation, Zambia.

  108. # 113 you said ‘hard to sell’. Well even in marketing lunguage ‘ Selling is a process’. Remember the Marketing Guru – Philip Kotler said : it is not what you do to the product to make it sell but what you do to the customer’s mind’. in this case i take a product as ‘An economic package HH is offering to the Zambian people’ . with this product we can all agree that its a good product that has to be spoken about and encourage neighbours to buy it then we shall do right to customer’s minds (in my case customers are the Zambian people). Muyangana and Wanzelu what do you say??

  109. 108 Way forward… you said ‘change of government’,’ voting for sata’….. Sorry there wont be any change but repeated change. its like all you are doing is watering the gardern after heavy rains. The action worsens crop growth or yield. Actual change is stamping out old politicians including Sata.

  110. We shall really see who will be crying in the name of rigging after failing to read the writting on the wall. MMD will be smiling and the biggest loser will be PF and Sata while the rest of us will keep saying i knew.

  111. #131 Walasa,

    What really do you know?

    Since you already know that MMD is winning and you are in a country where Zambia prints its ballot paper. Are you involved in printing out of ballot papers and stuffing of this stuff in extra boxes?

    Shame on you Kabwa…

  112. # 60 you seem to be very emotional that the only would have been saviour for your PF, President HH, has stood by principles. Mind you PF lost it after hounding Lubinda out. You now have Kambwiri, Kapata and other mute parliamentarians.

  113. UPND,labeniko game over as we implement the 50% plus one abali mu game balifye babili elyo bambi cababipila nomba ilya PVT ya pa CB tuleibomfya Zambia yonse chief riggers balwala na master dribler wabo caught off guard “oral-rrhoer balwala yalapwa.

  114. HH IS so stubborn and lacks wisdom.first and furmost.I THINK he was wrongly advised on what his position was in the PACT.HE REALLY wanted to be the president when he had a minority following compared to SATA whose following cannot need not to be clarified going by the number of paliamentally seats each party has in parliament.HH WAS TOLD TO TAKE AN EXAMPLE OF THAT FROM THE UK about NICK CLEGG and CAMERON WHO is now the prime minister going by the majority he has in parliament.CLEGG IS HIS VICE Coz he knows he has the minority.EVEN chibamba kanyama mentioned this that if TONGAS DONT integrate with others ,they will never produce a president if at all they are interested to have one.HH you have lost an opportunity and this is the end of UPND COZ IT WILL ONLY exist in southern province.

  115. #110 what makes HH the best man. i have not heard him selling and economic programme of any kind. unlike Mazoka, HH is known more for hi alliance with pt than economic change. since you seem to want us to vote for him, on what should i base my vote

  116. JOHN PHIRI, you **** chap, you cannot hide. You have now changed your name to: “Lundazi Zealot”
    We must realise that IP addresses, DNS Services can be can be tracked.

  117. PF is crying because they know that without UP ND’s popularity to ride on they are going nowhere. They may call UPND tribal but that surely is not taking them anywhere. No sane person can vote for sata, only thieves, thugs & kaponyas can. MMD is winning this years’ polls much to our dislike but we are better off than to be rulled by thugs with no vision for the country

  118. #105 PF Talking Point
    Do you know why MMD likes HH? They can mix their tricks easily. Read Todays RB & William’s comments.
    William Banda Likes Dora, VJ, RB, FTJ & HH. All corrupt people are in MMD & they seem to all like HH. RB, the darling to FTJ, whilst selling Zamtel & buying land at Napsa scruplously only hates Sata. I wud rather go for a person the devil hates than the devil’s cohorts. Listen to their comments. It makes me now think sata is the right guy for Zambia. Their praise of HH makes me think it is either he is their type or he isn’t a factor to them. BEFORE AN ELECTION, MMD IS PRAISING AN OPPOSITION LEADER IN THE NAME OF HH- FUNNY!

  119. During the just ended elections MMD won four,PF 3 THUS including the Mporokoso byelection and UPND won 2. To me numbers show me that MMD is still popular.What is your take Kaponyas?

  120. Guys lets be objectives and not flow with the noise. lets get rid of some names on the political arena as they have been here too long,they have nothing new to offer…wake up zambia…….look at wat the old leaders r doing to africa clinging for power…awe mwandi

  121. HH is very hard to sale because he is simply not inspirational. “Andy K” or Mazoka now that was a man who Zambians fell in love with. I am not Tonga but I was on the queque at UNZA in 2001 from morning till 22:00 just to vote for “Andy K’ the Anglo boss, true son of the soil, brilliance par excellence and when you heard him debate on TV he was the creme de creme. As for HH even the name ‘HH’ is just wrong it does not have a ring to it. In these elections he will do far worse than ‘Andy K’ trust me!

  122. HH is very hard to sale because he is simply not inspirational. Andy K or Mazoka now that was a man who Zambians fell in love with.

  123. #129 Oh yes! we are selling a quality product in HH, and this product represents the change we need as a nation. If it could be an apple, I would say it is straight from the farm, it is not rotten like these recycled ones ba Kule niwena walekisa ku bamwi. We need this product to bring senity to zambian politics which is feared by those with integrity. People with integrity are scared of politics in our nation because it is too dirty where mud smearing is the order of the day for recycled politicians who have nothing of substance to show for their pursuit to remain surviving on our tax, when us remain in poverty. Viva HH you are the man for our generation of equality for all.

  124. “They shall go their way” donchi kuba konka kuti bamilufya tabishibe uko balelola,katungulula nashibata.

  125. These old have got a culture of dny them so that they can be kneeling begging for handouts, because if they have they will not accept to be used. We really have to wake as youths of Zambia to the fact that the same people say they want to help us but instead they do the opposite, and that is to reduce us to beggers. You have to sing for them at the airport for you to get something from them in your own country, Shame. This time around am voting for quality leadership which can benefit everyone and not politicians only. We are all entittled to these things and these politicians are using our money. When Sata, Mwanga, Banda have a knee problem they are flown to South Africa for medical treatment, but for me I have to kneel and sing at the airport for favours. All youths WAKEUP PLEASE.

  126. the OLD politicians like recycled SATA know very well that the YOUTH and other YOUNG MEN are the majority in ZAMBIA. They know that blind folding them and telling them lies and singing to them POVERTY SONGS like MORE MONEY in your pockets in 90 DAYS is the only way to keep they stay in the political arenah. The have created BARRIERS to ENTRY into the POLITICS by telling lies that u need experience, etc…..
    The question to aks is:
    1. Where dd Neslon Mandela get his ministerial or presidential experience before becoming the one of the BEST PRESIDENTS in the whole world
    2.Where dd seretse khama get his esperience before becoming the President of Botswana which country he modelled into one of the best performing economies in Africa?

  127. HH, I am now proud of you and your team because you have refused to be used the way we have been used in the past. To day is my happiest day. We shall as from now onwards campaign tiresly. For your own infomation we have been preparing for this because we long saw it coming. And we have resources and capacity for the campaign. Dont listen to these frustrated PF cadres. They are bitter because they have lost it all. They will do any trick in the book to divert your attention. Remain focused. Let them say what they want, we shall not be shaken in an way. VIVA HH, VIVA UPND

  128. If the political experience we see among our recycled politicians of imorality, corruption, insults, reducing young men and women to poverty by stealing GRZ funds, poor medical facilities, to be flown to south Africa for flu attention on our tax, thuggery, no press freedom etc, then thats not the one I need or rather the experience is not worth it for me. I do not need the experience mentioned above and would rather choose no experience as it would be better for me. HH, Milupi, Chirwa, Kakoma, Chibwe etc move the country. We are behind you and am ready to campaign for you.

  129. YOUNG PEOPLE OF ZAMBIA ……STAND UP
    only u can bring real change. These recycled politicians are getting all the jobs in govt, diplomatic services, all government ministries, all ministerial positions……and the PRESIDENCE….
    Why can’t they retire. Like recycled SATA has been telling lies for years. In UNIP,MMD, and now PF. why can’t he retire? because he is riding on young people who are the majority at there own expense.
    Its our time to change the pace of economic development for all. OLD POLITICIANS out u go this year

  130. Sata is just interested in manipulating us, honestly how can he say more money in our pockets when him even at 74 depends on our tax to go for his heart treatment in South Africa. He almost died in 2008 with heart attack had it not been for Mwanawasa who took him to South Africa on our tax money. How can a dependant be a provider at 74 years of his dependancy syndrome. How can he put money in our pockets when he does not have it, and Taiwanese are on his neck for their money he used for his campaign in 2006 and 2008 presidential elections, on auctioned land colateral. Shame these recycled politicians who can preach what they cannot do. Beware of this man auctioning our land as colateral to foreigners.

  131. If you know that you are one of the recycled ones, stay away from politics this time, but rest assured that we will take care of you.

  132. not supprised at all it was expected that shall be like that. now it is time to compaign and the most popular candidate win.we want PVT and i think it time that we have a truely elected President in state house.i think PVT is the way to go

  133. Only HH the best man ed we here where am we wish him all the best this year,go my man go fo it,we kno you are not a failer ed wil be alwayz behind you .may God bless us all.

  134. 111 wanji greetings. On your “Maestro what is the best strategy of winning this years election if is we go separate as UPND?” firstly, the strategy has been that of exposing Sata MC and Wynter Kabimba of PF as powerhungry characters. Now that all other opposition parties are not interested in working with Sata MC, UPND has to convince them to support HH as Zambian President in the 2011 elections.

    UPND has to allow Milupi Charles to stand as Luena MP on ADD but ask him to support UPND’s HH as Presidential Candidate. Similarly, small party presidents like Ng’andu Magande can be asked to support HH for President of Zambia while UPND can support him for MP in Copperbelt or Northern Province. Former UPND members (or UPND informers) in PF have to be requested to re-join…

  135. Its HH chabe all the way. Those who want to remain in the stone age with homohabillis and proconsols of this world can do so as for me its forward with the nation. Nkuyuma yuma nobana. Uno mwaka pakuvota tusale kateka wamano, Hakainde Hichilema eo tusale bane. We do not want an orator for a President niether do we want a politician, All we need and want is an economic manager and that’s HH.He can only be hard to sell to those who are petty minded. We want substance not rotten teeth in State house lol.
    VIVA HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. He

  136. HH IS RUBISH ONLY CONFUSED CHAPS CAN VOTE FOR THIS CHAP…………PABWATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  137. # 160 if you have nothing to say,u beta just keep zeeeeeeee.no one will lough at you than bringing your RUBISH on net.if HH looses MUKAMWIBUKISHA 4 real.

  138. GEY is not allowed in zambia. SATA if that is your agenda or manifesto because we ar told you dont even have any manifesto you old magogo ed then you wnt to take that GEY manifesto to the state house,then we ar giving you a big NO magogo.your GEY issue is not allowed not even in the BIBILE meaning GOD do not even support it ed then who ar we to support you with your GEY issue forget old man this IMMOROL in presence of creator.VIVA HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH PAKUBOKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  139. OLD OLD bakudala goods train driver ed kapokola aaaaaaaaaah NO, you wnt me to stop supporting the young pipo no it better flesh pipo imwe.i think HHHHHHHHHH,CHABE PIPO.

  140. This PABWATO thing…..can’t it 4 once tell us what programmes this nation are in the BOAT. Those who were ther in UNIP and MMD days, do remember that him as Local Government Minister has come up with and idea with Chiluba……to construct OAU village to host OAU Head of State summit. They wanted to come up with a piece better than Mulungushi Village. However, what was astonishing was….they went to get briclayers and labourers from Malaysia. This scandal was at the time when many companies were closed by Chiluba cabinet and many Zambians had lost Jobs. The question is….has this SATA changed….when he could NOT provide employment to many Zambians BUt went to hire bricklayers and Labourers from Malaysia……This OLD Man does not change….the way we knew him 30 years ago….he is…

  141. @ # 160 You are a political cadre.. talking without reasoning….what can sata offer to zambians..he has been part of MMD for a long time they failed to improve people’s lives while they were still in power .. have u forgoten that sata was part of the chiluba govt. which ploughed the tax payers’s money..

  142. Realistically speaking who in the opposition has a better chance of unseating the MMD. Is it HH or is it SATA? We all have our political affiliations but we also have to be realistic, self deception is the worst kind of deception.

  143. Quarrels, name calling, courts cases, insults, fault finding ………………………… the list goes on is the game for the PF President. Him is very perfect and does not make mistakes at all. A state president in him is a far fetched dream. ITS TOO LATE, old man go in the village and tell your grand children stories about freedom fighting, policing, Russian scandal, monkey tricks and many others. You have faught a good fight Mr SATA, you have run a good race and now is the time for you to rest. KALEBALIKA mwa chitulika village in MPIKA

  144. This is NOT Chiefdom where even crap….grade 6 are able to rule…..noooooooooo the time has changed. we ask for quality, skilled leadership. The Problem with OLD MEN is rigidity. when u take them into state house, they will refuse to come out. thats what happening in North Africa….even in Zimbabwe.

    ALL YOUNG MEN LETS TEAM UP……..this is our time to bring credibility to the Political land scape of this country for good.

  145. 50% of Lusaka to HH, 50% CB to HH, 40% Central to HH, 50% of Western to HH, 99% of Southern to HH, 20% Eastern to HH, 3% of Northern to HH, 2% of Luapula to HH and 60% of NorthWestern to HH. HH in State House.

  146. Those who think Sata can be the presindent of this country should for get, the man has no principles to stand on,so un predictable on any issue.

  147. SATA got more Votes in 2006 because there was a major break away by SIKOTA’s led faction. and also the confusion bread by Nawakwi. But all that dust has settled and many people have gone back to UPND. A lot more people have realised the deceit and lies by the OLD COBRA. He can not be trusted. The 16 rebel MPs from Luapula are also making the damage. There were also 931,000 voters who dd not vote in 2008, who can upset the tables.
    The most interesting thing is that over 2 million new voters have been captured and these are young vibrant people who read papers, surf the net, and have fair understanding of these lies by old recycled Politicians. They will deliver the fianl nail om the head of a lying cobra

  148. hakainyenawila hichilangwanalesa you are very stingy young boy your so called interllectuals are very few but we the kaponyas are the majority.we need mature pipo to run this country like sata and rb.no cow shits at state house.selfish tribe.mazoka was not a tribalist like you.he had pipo like chisanga,sikota and sichinga well balanced but you .awe mwandine kukamona kumasaya ayakosa ngakalelanda you can that akamwana aka nikaka .

  149. Cobra kuya bebele. VIVA new blood and fresh progressive ideas. We the youth of Zed will speak this time around. HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  150. Foolish Zambian politics, foolish zambian politicians, foolish reporting, am fed up with anything Zambia. My family and I We are just watching the SUNAMI in Japan and the uprising in North africa and Middle east. Nothing to write home about in zambia. Bye bye i have stopped blogging!!! See u in great poverty after election!!

  151. “Young people CAN die. Old people MUST die”, so goes an old saying! VIVA HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  152. HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH all the way…..viva UPND where democracy is the oder of the day. ise nipali HH chabe…….go go forward. State house here we come..!

  153. APC elected president Chosy? Ng’uni and vice-president Silungwe has endorsed HH and UPND to form GRZ Administration this 2011 and full support to UPND in this year’s elections according to radio Phoenix.

    Mr Silungwe said that the APC could have long supported UPND but were scared of PF in the failed PACT. He said that as soon as the PACT crumbled, APC did not need any more time to waste to offer their full support to UPND and HH.

    With the above information, I hope this is the start of all progressive persons, churches, civil societies, NGOs and political parties to support UPND’s HH for Zambian President in the 2011 elections and beyond.

    Be blest all and let the UPND strategy be fruitful in alienating all sensible people from giving PF any of their votes in the 2011…

  154. Sata will never say the truth about that short bemba thief from Musangu village. Let him win, you will see them embracing each other again.

  155. According to MUVI TV news, Mr serpent Sata MC has maintained that the PF-UPND PACT still exists because he has not received any official notification that the UPND has pulled out of the PACT.

    Sadly for him and his PF, Mr Sata MC has only remained with a shell of the PACT as well as a shell of PF while the mighty UPND Team has moved on and is now receiving support from well meaning Zambians in form of a new alliance and alliances with APC (which was lead by late Kenny Ng’ondo but now) lead by Chosy?Ng’uni.

    I feel sorry for the PF serpent who has now been left alone to suffer without support from any sensible person.

    APC vice-president Obby Silungwe has released data that PF frightened his party from associating itself with UPND earlier but now, UPND can be supported by it…

  156. SATA can not win….THE YOUNG PEOPLE of ZAMBIA will this year DRIVE the real Change. ALL the OLD Grand PAPAs are going……they ve been in POLITICS for 50 YEARS. what real change can they bring. WE all know that the OLDER one gets he becomes inconsistent, 4getful, short tempered, slow, loss of vibrancy and energy, less innovative, etc
    So why VOTE for dead wood

  157. 180# Maestro Hhehhehhehhe for 2011 would-b President of Zambia HH

    Its because he wants to give an impression to his sponsors that things are all OK and that he will be the Pact President and deliver the results. They are on him and he is panicking.

    The Taiwanese want their money and the UPND has dumped him.

  158. HH has wasted people’s preceous time and it will take us another 5 years to participate effectively in presidential elections. UPND should serious remove this time waster from the party leadership.

  159. 182 Kasumba Lesa thanks for your data. I wish well in their endeavours (especially those of becoming irrelevant in our Zambian politics).

    Be blest and vote for the UPND and HH to form GRZ Administration this 2011 so that we can fix our terrible Consitution for the better as well as our economy which is limping compared to many others arround us in Africa and the rest of the world.

    Matt 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you.

  160. IS LUSAKA TIMES PART OF GOVT CONTROLLED TIMES OF ZAMBIA & DAILY MAIL…WHY DOES LUSAKA TIMES COPY AND PAST STORIES FROM TIMES OF ZAMBIA AND DAILY MAIL/ZNBC…READERS WOKE UP; YOU ARE READING TIMES OF ZAMBIA ON LUSAKA TIMES..HOW MANY STORIES DOES LUSAKA TIMES GET FROM POST NEWSPAPERS OR RADIO ICENGELO? NIL…ALL THEY COVER IS TIMES OF ZAMBIA, DAILY MAIL AND ZNBC!!
    PLEASE BE OBJECTIVE, GIVE US POST NEWS AS WELL..READERS…BOYCOTTY LUSAKA TIMES READERS TILL THEY COVER POST NEWSPATER TOO…CONCERNED READER!

  161. dishonest people always gives in ba Sata now is asking the young man to be back. If PF has the numbers why not go it alone? Ask Sata this question… I am sure he has no answers. We are not voting for age or tribe. let us get it right, what is the program for the nation. PF is now talking about guy issues, well that is not the reason there is so much suffering. UPND stands for clear policies on job creation for that Universty graduent and school leaver. these should be the issues we need to base our votes on. Go HH and do not look to PF (Poverty Party)

  162. # 185 Edmund let us allow LT do its job by informing us HH/UPND and the NEW YOUTH GENERATION allows press freedom,unless the press turns itself against certain societies or people by selling people of so called charisma in insulting,tribalism and sharing positions. LT, HH/UPND says continue with your objective and balanced reporting you are an asset to national building.

  163. ATTENTION ALL ZAMBIANS!!
    Dont hate one another because of tribalism song .It is being being perpetuated by some people in MMD ,PF AND UPND who are trying hard to derail THE ZAMBIAN YOUTH MOVEMENT so that they continue using youths for insults after buying them beer(ABUSING YOUTHS) for the old men and women to continue exploiting ZAMBINS.ESPECIALLY VJ,SATA,MABENGA,RB, SIKOTA WINA AND THEIR AGENTS. HH/UPND ONLY HOPE FOR REAL CHANGE. I said in UPND as well because MMD has some in plants as their destablising agents under cover.

  164. when did SATA and RB join Politics? It was more than 48 years ago, when they were below 30 YEARS. Now they want to block YOUNG ZAMBIANS from joining Politics OR getting Positions of responsibility. the question is WHY? this is because POLITICS is their LIFE LINE. If they leave POLITICS what else will they do. RB is better off…he knows farming…WHAT about SATA what farming and business does he know? This clearly shows that we YOUNG PEOPLE have been used to supporting OLD recyscled POLITICIANS who keep us under employed, less educated, poor, for violence against each other while them continue to act parasitical on the coffers of the nation.
    YOUNG PEOPLE STAND UP THIS YEAR FOR OURSELVES……LETS RETIRE THESE OLD RECYCLED POLITICIANS AND START REBUILDING OUR COUNTRY…….VIVA HH

  165. Who is going to vote for HH? The majority of disappointed and DRIBBLED Zambians will abstain… I am not a prophet of doom but if you happen to analyse properly this is the reason even the CHIPOLOPOLO no longer attracts large crowds in soccer, it is mediocre performances like the one just displayed by HH and SATA.
    Prepare for the cries of RIGGING! Why do you think SATA’s attention has turned to the Parallel Voting Counting system. So that he can have backing when he’s cry baby again! Read between the lines. Sata and HH have just messed up and should not take us for granted.

  166. I don’t know why this man still even wastes his breath denying that his party is a stinking tribal vessel. We are not endowed with a diminutive length of memory like him and Sata, we all know how Sakwiba was hounded out of UPND, the words “tulamu jaya Saki sunwe ka” still resonate in our ears. You will have to kill me first before I vote for Hicilema, never will I ever do so in this life. If he wants votes, let him ask Sejani and Mwananjiti to find them for him within Tongland.

  167. HH, you said it in black and white that the pact was the wish of the zambian people and not sata and HH. Now you have withdrawn without consulting the people who told you to form the pact. do you think your campaigns will be better as that of 2008? your MPs have been quiet on the whole issue of late. do you think you are still enjoying the popularity you had in southern,copperbelt and western and north-western provinces? may God help you to realise how you have betrayed the Zambian peolple.
