Suspect Patriotic Front (PF) and the Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD) cadres clashed today at Kamwala and the Town center in Lusaka.
The cadres were allegedly fighting over the market stores at Kamwala.
Zambia National Broadcasting Corporation (ZNBC) reports that Police were called in to calm the situation that was feared to turn into a riot.
All the shops at the Kamwala shopping centre were closed for fear of being looted.
The residents have since called on the Local government and Housing Minister to ensure that their is no politics at markets.
MMD Lusaka Province Chairperson William Banda denied that his members were not involved in the fracas that erupted today.

Kicks of a dying horse ! Be like UNIP just give in…Its over. The opposition are forming government.
Colonel Panji Kaunda sounded a timely warming and MMD in its self-effacing effort twisted the story for political expedience to satisfy their violent desires.
MMD and its leaders enjoy unleashing their violent cadres on innocent people and then twist the story in their favour.
Be warned rupiah that your hour of reckoning is near and you will be held to account
MMD Cadres have gone too much. Ba PF defend yourself.
Do you think that william banda will accept …this guy needs to be caged otherwise he will cause chaos in the country.People are fed up wih this useless RB and his govt.Panji told you f.o.o.ls but all we could hear is that he was the prophet of doom.These are the first pains of the woman in labour.I.d.i.o.t.s spent money on a white elephant,you think people are happy.Go and deceive villagers since thats what you are good at.This is another year.
did it look like 50-50, any indication of who had the more superior physical force, please? Kambwili’s or Williams?
mmd and pf ..yaba ..wina azafa this year…you 2 parties have to behave!
Zambia is indeed sitting on a time bomb, i was on my way into town when this started at Kamwala, all i could see was utusembe namalegeni while pass by’s were running in all direction and same thing happened in town. The so called police were nowhere to be seen. From what i could see, it was the MMD that were to blame and i believe that this has William Banda written all over. Just like # 1 has put it, these are the kicks of a dying horse which in this view is the MMD.
LT, the word is ‘looted’ and NOT ‘rooted’, thanks.
This is so unsavoury!I was at kamwala the other day & there were so many MMD cadres of intimidating stature,practically trying 2 impose themselves on goings on at the market.I felt unsafe & uncormfortable.As the ruling party,MMD must show responsibility & need not involve themselves in such.Besides,they are using taxpayers money to fund such.We want peace in zambia
BA MMD GO IN PEACE. OR DO YOU NEED TO BE MUBARAKARIZED?
let them fight each other while UPND is busy campaining. Please all you decent people dont worst your votes on these thuggly parties. VOTE FOR BEST! VIVA HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
WILLAM BANDA WILL SET ZAMBIA ABLAZE….MMD KUYABEBELE..THIS SHOWS HOW FOOOOOOLISH THIS GVT IS. ALLOWING THUGS TO TAKE OVER MARKETS.
RUPIAH THROUGH WILLIAM BANDA IS SENDING THUGS TO ATTACK HIS POLITICAL OPPONENTS.
RUPIAH’S PREFERED CANDIDATE WILLIAM BANDA HAS TAKEN OVER MARKETS AND BUS STOPS AND RUPIAH IS QUIET ABOUT IT.
IMAGINE THE HELL OF 5YEARS UNDER RUPIAH AND WILLIAM BANDA??
LET US CHANGE GOVT AND FORGET ABOUT WILLIAM BANDA.
VOTE PF COME 2011.
#11,Sata used to run the markets through Nakawala before William took over.
MMD Lusaka Province Chairperson William Banda denied that his members were not involved in the fracas that erupted today.

So Banda agreed that his members were involved?
Eesh! Zamnglish has now reached the heights.
William Banda is a nonentity and will not set this Country abraze. We will sort him out and very very soon. Let this be the last time he will think he is important.
Rupiah has failed to provide Jobs for the youths and now using them just because there hungry and need to feed. We shall not condon this anymore and will sort them out one at a time
Markets are trading places where we do our shoping.Why should MMD victimise innocent people just to take control of markets?then where will the councils get money if MMD cadres want to take over all markets?Have they run out of cash for campains?
HH ma zee yanyanya! We need brave men like Miyanda to rule…..Abash cadrerism…
I thing Zambia has gone to the dogs. On the constitution, MMD has failed and now they want to intimidate pipo. George Kunda shud live to the next govt coz the chap must be caged. He cheated Mwanawasa and now another foolish leader is depending on him and William for advice,what do you expect? My prayer is that both these chaps shud not die so that they face the temerity of their cunning deceit.
Cage William Banda.let not these foolish mmds intimidete anyone.They must be beaten up like hell.
markets have turned into fighting grounds.
PF should show they control Lusaka. Why should MMD cadres harass citizens at will? PF have the numbers and once they react, the MMD cadres and their regalia will definitely disappear from markets and bus stops. PF where are you? Strategise in a non violent but effective way…
Arrest all these fools MMD PF UPND, throw in Siluapa aswell while you are at it.
I heard that the MMD had their makeshift flags removed and had their backsides kicked! The MMD can’t win a fight in lusaka!
And if william banda is not caged, he will one day wake up with ash in his mouth!
#5 it can never ever be 50 – 50 in Lusaka. #s 20 and 22, spot on. So……PF are not really “kaponyas”, because if they were, they would have taken over Lusaka with no problems.
#11 dream on…..
#24 The PF Youths have been restraining themselves for a long time now. Now we can no longer watch our city decend into anarcy , without doing nothing. If Nyama Soya does not cage his dogs, will shall cage them for him! ” Its better to be violent, if there is violence in our hearts, than to wear a cloak of non violence to cover impotence!” – GHANDI
# 11 George Kunda revealled that UPND wants to go into a pact with the MMD, the party UPND calls corrupt! The conduct of UPND has damaged its image and many Zambians would be wary of voting for these elusive hypocrites!
SAD situation developing. RB will make sure he brings to book those who assulted an MMD cadre in Mazabuka. This is a blessing for William Banda, the president of Zambia seeking revenge!!!!!!
No sane person can waste his time to talk about UPND because it is no longer a factor in Zambian politics.UPND is a finished party who dont exist anywhere apart from kucuundu.So you UPND supporters just think using your brains and not your tribe, then at that point, you will know how naked politically you have been.
Start to p[repare your minds to have MC sata as yopur president any time this year.the sooner you realise this, the better for you Chaps.
William banda should seriously be caged for the betterment of this country during this year’s elections, otherwise, he will be a menace to society.
Tongas, wake up like your colleagues from western, who dont want to spoil votes this year, vote with the rest of zambia.God bless the PF and its leadership.
# 29 I can not agree with you more comrade!
Ba fikamba ba pf , why do u assocate any thing violent to mmd and william in particular. You pf koponyas u ve caused too much violences in lsk when ever we are near elections . Any this year election mmd has fully prepared for pf. Viva mmd viva upnd.
But william Banda!!! Chiluba was very right to chase u from this country… he thinks hes all that
So ba (U)seless( P)eople with( N)o clean hands and (D)ouble standard you were eatin with two hands pretending to be for the mmd on the other hand you are with pf.God is great he has shown how cruel your party is especially hh.you tongas wake up with your obama he is more dangerous than the so called cobra .your party will soon go into archives .;
# 33 We are not violent as PF, if we where this country would be un Governable! And every party has ba kaponya and the kopnya’s in MMD are more dangerous and blood thirsty. We will no longer allow thieves to use politics to intimidate people, this year tule minyela imwe baka tyetye mwenda mwalimwa!

William Banda doesn’t even know how to spelll “DEMOCRACY”, he only knows how to spell and understand the word “VIGILANTE”.
B.a.p.o.n.o.n.e.ni ba MMD; akanyelele ngawakabala kalasuma. This WB ( William Bully) is such a I.d.i.o.t that he behaves like a konto mulimba chitumbi
