THE United Party for National Development (UPND) has expelled Colonel Panji Kaunda from the party for breaching the party constitution.

UPND spokesperson Charles Kakoma said at a press briefing in Lusaka yesterday that Col  Kaunda’s expulsion follows his failure to exculpate himself as stipulated in the suspension letter of March 29.

“Following the suspension of Col  Kaunda and his subsequent failure to exculpate himself from the charges we put to him, UPND has today (April 13) expelled Col Kaunda from the party pursuant to article 70 of our party constitution,” Mr Kakoma said.

He said Col Kaunda breached article 8 of the party constitution, which compels members to respect and follow the constitution.

“We have found Col Kaunda wanting and therefore liable to expulsion. We therefore wish to advise our supporters and the public that Col Kaunda is no longer a member of UPND,” he said.

Mr Kakoma said the article states that members should uphold and defend the philosophy, vision and objectives of the party and its democratically adopted position on internal and international issues.

He said article 8 further states that party members should safeguard party policies and programmes from ‘undue corruption of thought’.

[pullquote]“This is a free country and the UPND has a right to expel whoever they want to expel. I am currently busy campaigning for my candidate,” Panji said.[/pullquote]

The article also states that members should adhere to collective responsibility and defend their ideas and positions through the established party structures.

Mr Kakoma said any meeting called by Col Kaunda from today onwards should be deemed illegal because he has ceased to be a member of the UPND.

The UPND has also formally welcomed former MMD Katuba member of Parliament Jonas Shakafuswa to the party.

Mr Kakoma said Mr Shakafuswa has indicated to the UPND that he will officially join the party after the dissolution of Parliament but the opposition party says it is ready for a by-election if the Katuba seat is declared vacant before the dissolution of the National Assembly.

Commenting on his expulsion, Col Kaunda said he will not fight the UPND’s decision because his pact is with the people and not any political party.

“This is a free country and the UPND has a right to expel whoever they want to expel. I am currently busy campaigning for my candidate,” he said.

Col Kaunda said he does not have time to discuss the affairs of the UPND because he is busy in the field.

  1. why is this panji fellow subjecting super ken’s name, or whats left of it to further ridicule? this is not fair,,,,,, the old man has done more than any other person ever will for this country and what you are doing is to dilute his standing and stature,. all because of your short sightedness, selfishness
    and bitterness! not good for your own good

  2. Really, what is UPND. Its a dead regional party which can never come into power. Panji knows he has nothing to loose. I support his stance because even my 5 year Dota knows that supporting UPND at this stage is a worst of time and money. Its a shame to Jonas, he cant read through. By the time he realise, he will be 90 and of no value. Come to your senses Jonas, you are vibrant and needed in next govt.

    • What a character, you are following your 5 yr old daughter?!! When you find yourself in a ditch head down, its because you are a blind follower, you follow anything and can never lead others yourself. My dear, you are leading a dangerous life.

  3. Good to see the back of Hon Shakafuswa. Let him drop his cout litigation and measure his popularity in the battle field. We are ready and let have people that will add value to our party than have these charlatans, who subscribe to the diatribe of negativity about our country, living in our midst. Hope Hon Mpombo follows suit.

  4. Panji is free to exercie is democratic right in his free mind is capable to choose a rit candidate for th people 4 me panji has the people of zambia @ heart

  5. Just  finished reading the PF Manifesto…a painstaking exercise- thank God for coffee..it is now confirmed that the PF has no capacity to run a govt. Their understanding of govt is so naive and childlike I begin to wonder if Sata was really smoking cigarettes or PCP during his “rich experience” of politics. The manifesto itself is is riddled with MMD critiques, and the “meat” of it is empty promises. Their so called solutions had to have been written by a Grade 12. But since it is mediocre, most Zambians will love it: NI DONCHI KUBEBA!!!…smh

  6. expelling panji does not address the question he and many meaningful zambians have asked and are asking . WHAT IS THE WAY FORWARD .how do we get rid of the failed mmd democratically .because of panjis questions ,i find it extremely unreasonable for panji to suffer injustice because of his real assessment that HH cannot win an election alone and because of that it would be futile to vote foe him . its like i say it would be futile to vote for me ( the writer as a presidential candidate because iam not popular -common sense).that does not demeen HHor belittle him .it does not disrespect him .its just a fact on the ground.Panji go .go for the facts , they may one day liberate us from our wrong belief

  7. We all agree that Panji has a democratic right to campaign for a candidate of his choice but the UPND has equally got a right to expell any member who breaches their constitution and exhibits prostitutional bahaviour. The difference between Panji and prof Chirwa is that Chirwa only made a confidential proposal to break a political deadlock but when that information was leaked by overzealous PF functionaries he(Chirwa) quickly disassociated himself from it and publicly apologised. At no point did he campaign for or endorse Sata. There is no need for Panji to use his father’s name when he can simply join PF and campaign for Sata. There are equaly a lot of PF supporters who prefer HH to be president and will only show their intention by voting or joining UPND

  8. The way forward to remove MMD is by rallying behind HH not Sata. There is no doubt that HH has the capacity and support base to win the presidency and that explains why Mmembe is jealous of him. Sata represents the worst form of MMD, he is part and parcel of the hated Chiluba regime. That explains why he is attracting the likes of Nawakwi, Chitala, Sichinga, Mpombo, Wina etc. What change do you expect from such characters? Aren’t some of them the architect of MMD? A leopard does not change it’s colours overnight. Forward with real generational change, vote HH!!

  9. change is not just for its sake. it has to be change that continues from the little that the mmd has done. if it’s change that erodes the little done by the current government, hey, i better continue with the current government which does little. ‘chintu chintu umwene’. unfortunately, the credible opposition party leaders do not have numbers to win this year’s election. given this scenario, im better with mmd. we can all make our own analyses and decide. after all its one man one vote.

    • Now here is a voice of reason! You think just like me my friend. I agree that the people who should be leaders dont have the numbers…and in as much as I hate the MMD I honestly would rather have RB than Sata. We have a leadership crisis in our country, partly due to gross corruption and ignorance which compromise the judgement of the voters.They go where “chadiba” rather than where THEY feel they should be. Kwalola mwela instead of decisions based on principle and morals. God help us!

  10. Jonas wants another 5 years in parley because he cant imagine himself without his room at the infamous Parliament motel(slaughtering them bi.tches).

  11. Good luck Jonas. I hope this time you be sent to parliament to work and lobby for your contituents so that they see meaningful development and not to slaughter women at parliament motel.

  12. PLIZ we need that bye election in katuba, I am telling you the truth it will be a good test for all the parties.

  13. Well done kakoma ed the UPND.to remove the bagger,let him go to his homosexual gay leader SATA he support.i think he is too childsh this man,how do you belong to the might UPND and then busy campeigning for that homosexual gay party leader SATA? that is nosens Panji goooo. we dont wnt you anymo live the UNITED PEOPLE ALONE WIRE IWE. VIVA HH VIVA SHAKAS VIVA KAKOMA SHOW THEM THE WAY FORWARD.

  14. Time of this futile expelling and recruiting of new memberz in political partiez iz long gone. What iz required now iz mobilization of every available Zambian to make a meaningful contribution to the political dimension of the country, irrespective of the party they belong to.

  15. No.1 Chilombo. U allerge panji is bringing the name of KK to riducule. On the contrary KK is using his grown up sons to attack RB. If another person wins the polls, u will see super Ken publicly condemn RB. The thing is outwards KK smiles when they meet with RB. i’m close to the Kaunda’s, I know KK habours bitter hate of R for his association closely with FTJ. KK blames FTJ for the killing of his son Wezi. Rememebr KK has publicly said Chiluba Killed KK’s son WEZI meanwhile RB defends FTJ to the bone.

  16. THE BOY CALLED JONA, EVEN IN THE BIBLE JONA WAS EXTREMELY REBELOUS EVEN TO GOD HIS CREATOR, MAY U BE SWALLOWEDED IN ANOTHER SHARK FOREVER THIS TIME! AS FOR PANJI PANJILINJILI NO COMMENTS….. :)

  17. Shakas we ar confident very confident that even if they declare it vacancy today you will tak the katuba,welcome to the UNITED PEOPLE you deserve to be in this might UPND. live those old magogo welcome to the young people we still hav the future.

  18. Let upnd also expel prof. chirwa and not just panji. jones has to re-think his joining upnd…its better to remain in mmd or join pf.

    • PF IS HOMOSEXUAL PARTY WITH NO DIRECTION THAT IS WHY THINKING PEOPLE CANNOT JOIN SUCH A MADALA PARTY.VIVA HH ,VIVA UPND NEXT GRZ

  19. #2 JB, Dont abuse your 5 year child and plant hate in her/him like muslims do.Allow your child to grow at his/her pace and not your pace.Give education instead to your child for her/him to learn and be educated to make choices and judgements based on reason and wisdom from God, and not based on CHULDHOOD INDOCRINATION OF HATE WITH EMPTY HEAD.
    “GOD SERVE THE INNOCENT CHILD FROM PARENTAL ABUSE-Amen!!”

  20. Plse dont be cheated that H.H. is winiing.this year.No..No H.H. wil be be no 3 .PF no 1
    Rb this time will be no 2.
    So Panji is right.he has nothing to loose.Only Kakoma and H.H will loose.Pantu H.H. will not be a presindent.of zambia unless He stand as an M.P.
    NotJust jumpingfrom no where awee.tefyo.I like him ine palwandi H.H. wake up go back to the big man he is just going to be in power for 1 then as per R.Banda said.

  21. While Panji has the privilege to utter his say-so, UPND have made a good decision to expel him. He has been destruction to UPND. Let him now go and drive the communiqué for PF.

    If he can go in the public and endorse Sata, he is better off eating from the same table as PF cliques.

    The nation must be allowed to see politicians who have visions to lift the realm before casting the ballot and not those that just want to seek being given chances as protracted by Panji in the media a few days ago. The playing field is open for all to sell their visions. The beauty is that the winner takes all.

  22. If Panji you’re a listening son, listen your father’s advise: Kaunda told the nation that Sata is not fit for presidency: Now you, you’re going against your father’s instruction; proverbs 1:8 says: my son hear the instruction of thy father. proverbs 4:20-21 says: my son attend to my words incline thine ear unto my sayings. let tem not depart from thineeyes keep themin the mindst of thine heart: proverbs 21:27 the sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more when he brings it with a wicked mind?

  23. In mozambique the independence party is in power. In South Africa the independence part is in power. Look at the shameful end our independence party has met. Its now fit only for the museum and the history book. Shame, o what a sham!

  24. In mozambique the independence party is in power. In South Africa the independence party is in power. Look at the shameful end our independence party has met. Its now fit only for the museum and the history book. Shame, o what a sham!

    • DONT TAKE THE COVERAGE OF THE VUVUZELA THAT YOU WILL WIN,WE WON THE CHILANGA SEAT WITHOUT THE PF POST OF HOMOSEXUALS AND GUYS.VIVA HH ,VIVA UPND.NEXT GRZ.

  25. Hon Jonas Shakafuswa is a highly rational young person this country has ever produced. imagine leaving grz for a rational party.

  26. Welcome back to UNITED PEOPLES Shaka! This isa morale boost for UPND as everyone knows Shaka is not a light weight KATUBA is already taken back by UPND!

  27. Great move,now comerade panji can campaign for our leader michael sata.Mr panji is a sober,realistic character who speaks for the people.Why is mr sata so popular??Simple,he articulates issues in a way easy 2 relate to by the ordinary Zambian,then backs it up with his unbelievable scores when he was minister.If he was just a conductor & did so much,how much more the box seat,the drivers seat.Sorry to those that hate him but for us HE IS OUR MAN!!

  28. Wait a minute! How old is Panji??? I gather he should be early sixties or late fifties?? Is this why those born after 1964 still behave as though they are still teenagers. Bloggers, grow up; how can you begin to expect KK to police his children at this stage? Should I assume that those of you respectable family men and women are still crying mummy whenever you have situations to resolve? Remember that at one stage one KK tried to post the sins of Sata on his over-eighty father when there was discontent in UNIP. Family honour is fleeting and highly symbolic. Let the man do what his conscience dictates to him!

  29. PLEASE DONT BE CHEATED THAT PF CAN WIN THE ELECTIONS THIS YEAR THAT CAN NOT HAPPEN.YOU AR BUSY THINKING THAT THE OLD GOODS TRAIN DRIVER SATA CAN BE THE LEADER FOR WHICH COUNTRY?GUYZ WE AR NOT FIGHTING FOR INDEPENDENCY,THIS IS NOT 1964 WHEN WE HAD FEW EDUCATED PEOPLE LIKE HURRY MWAANGA NKUMBULA ED KK EVEN THAT TIME SATA HIMESELF WAS NOT EVEN QUALIFING TO BE THE PRESIDENT.FO YOUR OWN INFORMATION GUYZ WE NEED PEOPLE WHO AR EDUCATED LIKE HH OR RB BETTER THAT WAY NOT YO OLD GOODS TRAIN DRIVER NOT IN OUR COUNTRY.LET HIM TAKE THAT BOAT FOR FISHING IN LAKE TANGANYIKA BCOZ THAT IS NEAR TO TANZANIA WHERE HE IS COMING FROM.NO CHANCE THIS YEAR ONLY EDUCATED ONES WE NEED PERIOD.

  30. I like HH as a person and his cool nature, tho he is not perfect. however, the issue in this year’s election is not about personalities but rather what needs to be done that the MMD has refused to address: the windfall tax or equitable tax for our natural resources. For some of you try imagining the Cbelt 40 years from now (biggest man made lakes in the world) with no tangible evidence of investments of these resources being harvested making any tangible benefit for us. what of the labour laws? a driver can be allowed to lead an illegal strike at ECZ but this cant happen at Shoprite or the chambishi mines? the selling of zamtel? need i go further. i will personally vote for PF and the same day i vote for PF start taking a demanding stance from them just like what i expect from the Post

  31. PF is winning this year’s eletions because it is the only largest opposition party and people want change.Just wait and see what happens when campaigns start.There will be mass defections to the PF. UPND is on the same level as Milupi’s ADA ,ULP and other small tribal parties. Magande and HH will share their Southern Province thereby weakening UPND further.
    VOTE SATA AND PF COME 2011

    • WHAT A SHALLOW WAY OF LOOKING AT MATTERS OF NATION INTEREST.UPND IS NOT A REGIONAL PART IS LUSAKA SOUTHERN,IS N/WESTERN SOUTHERN IDONT KNOW WHY YOU PEOPLE FORGET THAT .ANY WAY IT IS KNOWN HATE MAKES PEOPLE FAIL REASON.

  32. No 30 Chali – what is education. there is a notion that education is only knowledge acquired in a classroom. this is nonsense and the ealier you get your facts right the better. look at brazil lula. its not about being educated otherwise we would just pluck any educated elite in zambia from theoretical/academia platform and usher them into the political front to ran this country. i can vouch they wouldnt ran this country any better. isnt RB more educated than the late Levy? . As for Jonas, i think he is intelligent but i think just like mutati they have failed to connect with their constituencies. find out chali about education and have your mindset realigned before you get into a delirious elusionary trance called mediocrity

  33. #16 So what you are saying is that in fact it is PF which more UNIP now than the current MMD? Your logic is suspect, is KK and Panji foolish enough to forget that Sata was very much part of the administration of Chiluba that allegedly killed Wezi? Between Sata and RB, who would have more blood on his hands – RB who was at his farm in Chipata at the time of Wezi’s death or Sata who was pushing for Chiluba’s third-term?

  34. I am extremely surprised to see how shallow minded you analysts display.U think Sata can win the forth coming elections without problems,i tell u the truth this man will never be the president due to his dictatorial tenets and childish manifesto.Old pipo shud rest this time around.Why do think like this? We need a leader like His excellence Mr.B.Obama.Koma muma developing countries,awe mwandi……

  35. Jelous PF guys! Look when job seekers like kabiji panga and panji join PF no one makes noise! noe shakafuswa rejoins MIGHTY UPND and Zambia forward not backwards! you are all jitterry.. you claim to be popular so dont complain we shall meet in the battle filed this time around.VIVA

  36. Counting chiks before they are hatched, welcoming Jonas to the UPND and will join when Parlaiment is dissolved my foot!!!!!!!!! Please any Vote for HH is for RB dont say you were not warned. As for panji yo part is too domant to have such vibrant individuals.

  37. WAT INTEGRIT HAS SHAKAFUSWA BROT TO UPND? SCREWING GRADE 9 GIRLS EXPERIENCE AT PARLIAMENT MOTEL AM SURE….!! VIVA PF

  38. Commenting on his expulsion, Col Kaunda said he will not fight the UPND’s decision because his pact is with the people and not any political party.

    “This is a free country and the UPND has a right to expel whoever they want to expel. I am currently busy campaigning for my candidate,” he said.

    Col Kaunda said he does not have time to discuss the affairs of the UPND because he is busy in the field.
    Smart guy indeed. Please continue working hard whilst some people are busy talking. Last week Panji was at bana Tonga’s residence in Chingola at no.34 8th street Nchanga south. Today panji at village Mwekelo in chief ba Kapinjimpanga area. This is one of the most densely populated villages in Southern Africa.

  39. Welcome Jonas Shakas. Lets show them Mwadwa Mweka Daddies that it does not pay to take people for a ride. I am sure Mulongoti who expelled you from MMD will now eat his head and regret his actions. At least you and UPND will have the last laugh.

  40. Shakafuswa one time called Tongas all sort of names after he left UPND for MMD and later had a quarrel with Habeenzu at parley motel in Lusaka. Lenges and Tongas come from one tribe, but the main tribe is Tonga. Lets learn to treat each and every person with honour and respect because we are one and fighting for one goal as a country. Zambia is for all Zambian not few individuals.%%-

  41. #6 I quite like the PF manifesto – if they are saying MMD has failed it’s simply because it is true. patriotic-front dot com

  42. INE WINE PLIZ TAK THAT OLD GOODS TRAIN DRIVER TO THE NIGHT SCHOOL IFU WNT HIM TO BE THE PRESIDENT ONE DAY.AS FOR RB ED THE LATE LEVY U AR TALKING THOSE AR UNZA PRODUCTS INCLUDING THE YOUNG MAN HH,NOW WHAT OF YOU AND YO OLD GOODS TRAIN DRIVER,WHICH SCHOOL DID U GO TO?DNT COMPARE ZAMBIA ED BRAZIL THIS AR TOO DIFFERENT COUNTRIES ED EVEN ECONOMICALY THEIR AR DIFFERENT SO DONT THINK CHILDSH LIK YO UN EDUCATED LEADER WHO HAD ALL THE OPPORTUNITIES FO HIM TO BACK TO SCHOOL BUT HE CUDNT.GET OUT I CNT WAST MY VOTE TO GIVE HIM NEVER.

  43. Shaka thanks very much. this level of humility is what we lack in many politicians. wellcome back. the family of UPND loves you. let alone the pundits and nay sayers that UPND is a regional party go to rot in PF. PF will nevever form goverment,i repeat PF will never form goverment.

  44. On
    “Following the suspension of Col Kaunda and his subsequent failure to exculpate himself from the charges we put to him, UPND has today (April 13) expelled Col Kaunda from the party pursuant to article 70 of our party constitution,” Mr Kakoma said.[] He said Col Kaunda breached article 8 of the party constitution, which compels members to respect and follow the constitution
    this is very good by the UPND and I wish Panji well in his activities with PF’s Micheal Sata.

    I hope Panji will be useful to PF and wont come back running to the UPND. However, he is still welcome to join the UPND Group if he reforms from his current confusion — since UPND has shown that they can welcome people who left to be in other parties for a while like MMD Katuba MP Jonas Shakafuswa.

  45. On
    The UPND has also formally welcomed former MMD Katuba member of Parliament Jonas Shakafuswa to the party… [Hon MP] Kakoma said Mr Shakafuswa has indicated to the UPND that he will officially join the party after the dissolution of Parliament but the opposition party says it is ready for a by-election if the Katuba seat is declared vacant before the dissolution of the National Assembly
    Im very glad that the UPND has DONE this great honour of welcoming former UPND member Hon Jonas Shakafuswa to his own party. I wish to invite other people who had left UPND to re-join it again. Even new members are welcome to join the UPND as long as they will be joining to help the UPND Group to meet its mission.

    I hope Mr Ng’nadu Magande will also consider taking his NMPP to UPND…

  46. UPND is just a group of spoilers, who know that they have no capacity to win, expelling panji is just loosing a soldier who could have helped UPND fight a good battle at some point. its a pity that UPND characters have no independent minds, what panji pointed out was an independent mind. thereb are alot of us tongas who dont believe on the UPND ‘s path of destruction.

    shame on UPND, and VIVA PANJI.
    Tonga Bull

  47. Wen the up nd down part was formed, it was led by a mature,articulate and down to earth man who was surrounded by men with clout. It was a might part indeed until the man who cares only about himself (anda 5) grabbed the leadership usin his tribal card trumpet. Pipo claim,he is educated; but the only education ve seen coming out from him is selling companies wit ftj, donating cows, campaignin for ward elections. His rally speeches are les inspirin. They lack conviction and charisma.

  48. It appears the PF intends to rectify the ills of the MMD rather than offer freshness. The ideals of both parties are the same. The leanings are different with the PF being more socialistic while the MMD is leaning towards the centre.In the final analysis, it will be down to who has the best record and team to implement the programme that best meets the aspirations of Zambians. Rude as it is sounds, the PF manifesto is a watered down version of the current MMD’s. In a word it is a gong’a! It is Zambia “B” verses Zambia “A.”

    Walasa!
    I quote, “PLEASE DONT BE CHEATED THAT PF CAN WIN THE ELECTIONS THIS YEAR THAT CAN NOT HAPPEN.YOU AR BUSY THINKING THAT THE OLD GOODS TRAIN DRIVER SATA CAN BE THE LEADER FOR WHICH COUNTRY?GUYZ WE AR NOT FIGHTING FOR INDEPENDENCY,THIS IS NOT 1964 WHEN WE HAD FEW EDUCATED PEOPLE LIKE HURRY MWAANGA NKUMBULA ED KK EVEN THAT TIME SATA HIMESELF WAS NOT EVEN QUALIFING TO BE THE PRESIDENT.FO YOUR OWN INFORMATION GUYZ WE NEED PEOPLE WHO AR EDUCATED LIKE HH OR RB BETTER THAT WAY NOT YO OLD GOODS TRAIN DRIVER NOT IN OUR COUNTRY.LET HIM TAKE THAT BOAT FOR FISHING IN LAKE TANGANYIKA BCOZ THAT IS NEAR TO TANZANIA WHERE HE IS COMING FROM.NO CHANCE THIS YEAR ONLY EDUCATED ONES WE NEED PERIOD”.

  50. Listen to Panji on the radio, he is in Chief ba Kapijimpanga doing the great damage to MMD and UPND. However, the most important factor is that he is busy selling ba shikulu ba Sata to the electorates in the field. The guy is our modern “John the Baptist”

  51. The good news is that PF still maintains its popularity in all its strongholds and they do not need to compaign their. But they have gained alot of ground in areas they were previously not popular such as Northwestern, Western, Eastern and some parts of Central provinces. I am sure they will never get zeros in these areas again. Atleast they will be getting something better than the last elections. The 30,000 votes btwn MMD and PF was a very small gap.I think PF does not UPND to win this elections though and alliance would have been better. PF is outrightly winning this year-2011.

  52. LT, i have a question for your moderator, what does he moderate if foul language is allowed on your Blog? To my fellow bloggers, lets be honest, how can you claim to be zambian when you are promoting the ideals and beliefs of another country? I laughed at Panji the other night when he appeared on Qfm. he says in USA senators vote accross party lines on serious national issues but he also forgets that in an election demos will always vote demo and reps will always vote rep, all political parties do is to fight for independent voters (pipo without party affiliation) he also deliberately forgets that some demos resigned from the party to join reps when Obama was adopted as the demo candidate in the last election. People are guided by morals you don’t have to wait to be expelled……

  53. Zambians there is nothing wrong with Panji supporting Sata, Why worst his time and efforts on a party that will not go anywhere? UPND is not serious, they broke away from the PACT.

    Fellow Zambians abroad, call relatives back home. Tables have changed. MMD is gone whether you like it or not. It is SATA this time around unless VJ rigs as usual.

  54. Hi guys just let COL panji alone he is a true man he knows what he is saying. VIVA panji and the PF my vote is for you guys.

  55. SHIK#63, we will not tolarate one person continue deciding on behalf of 13,000,000 people. Who is VJ?? His he god?? No……………….This is why there is a revolution in North Africa. God is great and he won’t allow VJ continue stealing our votes. VJ alafwa nomba line kuli AIDS before this year’s elections. Wait and see!! Ours prays are not in vain. We want change in Zambia. We want ba shikulu ba Sata ebo bateke. Supoort Panji’s noble call!!!!!!!!!!!!

  56. Viva PF……………………………viva Fr.Frank Bwalya!! Viva Panji…………………!!! Viva Prof Chirwa………..!! Have you heard?? Prof Chirwa is declared his total support for bashikulu Ba Sata in this year’s elections. And claims he still remains a staunch UPND member. Latest news…………..!!

  57. WELCOME BACK HOME OUR LOST SON! WE LOVE YOU SHAKA AND WE WILL SUPPORT YOU IN THE FIELD. THE NEXT GRZ IS WELCOMING ALL TO JOIN. WE ARE SO READY TO FORM THE NEXT GOVT: VIVA HH! VIVA SHAKA! VIVA UPND! VOTE FOR REAL CHANGE!

  58. CHI PANJI YEE, NIKWISA CHAWININE MAILECTIONS KANSHI?
    TIRED BAGGER, HE IS NOW BEHAVING LIKE alice simango WHO DEFFECTEDE TO PF IN 2008 AFETR SEEING THE DECEIVING PICTURES BY THE POST MAGAZINE. THE CHAP CAME BACK TO MMD IN NO TIME. PLEASE ZAMBIANS, ITS ONLY UPND THAT WILL CARRY THE DAY THIS TIME AROUND.

  59. In 1991 KK told us that Chiluba is NOT fit to be President, we dd NOT listen. KK knows what it takes to be president of a country. You work long hours, your read long hours, u attend to different people of different back ground. On top of that u are in Control of the arms amd guns, the intellegence and the Armed forces. In case of Zambia u have fragile democratic institutions and constitution that u need to strengthen. You need also to have a vision of where you need to take this country in terms creating wealth for the country that will reduce poverty. Chiluba was former Grade 7 pupil, he destroyed the country to reach the last poorest 10 nations in the world…..now from a grade 7 u want to vote in SATA a former grade 6 pupil. Its very sad……where are we going…..KK said SATA is not

  60. #70 continued…………… KK told us that SATA is NOT fit to be president of this Country….Chiluba also told us that SATA is NOT fit to Lead this Country. These people worked closely to SATA and are warning us NOT to vote for this person. We the people of ZAMBIA are the EMPLOYERS and we need SATAs reference from his former SUPERVISORS….and they have given US reference that SATA is NOT fit for the JOB. IN 2001 they gave us LEVY who performed meaning that CHILUBA knew the difference btn LEVY and SATA. So You want me to DISREGARD this REFERENCE which KK and CHILUBA gave people of ZAMBIA and VOTE for SATA. On top of that he has very limited knowledge of hw to move this countr

  61. This shows how shallow African politics are. Panji is just an ordinary member of the party. How can you expel ordinary members of the party. They are the ones who are supposed to decide the direction of the party. Oh, I forgot. There is no democracy in our parties. Gordon Brown, David Cameron, Barak Obama – they were all elected by ordinary members of the their parties, some of whom even used abusive language against the prospective leaders. But the leaders have no authority to expel them. It would be a bit like the republican president expelling ordinary Zambians from their country for ‘insulting’ the great leader.

  62. I have always believed that the difficult part about selling one’s presidential candidate, like Panji is doing, is that you don’t ultimately know for sure if the people you are talking politics to will turn your talk into voting for them. So is the fallacy that when you are drawing unprecedented number of crowds at campaign rallies, then that is a good measure that you are assured of votes, no. The open secret is that the VOTE ultimately is secret, period.

  64. I am pleased to inform you all that Shakas is very good riddance for MMD and he is very arrogant. The people of Katuba will never vote for him again because they have realised that that whole family is full of themselves, they boast too much including his brothers who sold land belonging to ZESCO in Livingstone. Why do we Zambians except me seem to have a very short memory. UPND has just welcomed back a bag of problems and I can see HH getting rid of Jonas soon because the chap is too arrogant. And you #8 waht do mean Panji should stop using his dad’s name? You want him to adopt another surname, no it doesnt work like that, his surname given at birth is KAUNDA and it is not necessary to change that now just because he supports Sata. Word from kachepa is that the old man is for Sata in…

  65. Jay logic, u are marely trying 2 make yoself feel better. Consuling yoself coz up nd down part is no crowd puller. U really ve a smart way of ducking shame.

  66. WE ARE AWARE THAT SOME BEMBA BLOGGERS ARE TRYING TO PRETEND TO BE LOZIS. GUESS WHAT WE KNOW YOU AND YOU WILL NOT CHANGE OUR POSITION. YOUR SATA INSULTED THE LOZI PEOPLE AND KABIMBA INSULTED THE TONGAZ. WESTERN PROVINCE IS FOR UPND SO DONT WASTE YOUR TIME TO PRETEND TO BE LOZI. WE WILL NOT FORGET WHAT SATANA DID AND HIS STANCE ON THE BAROTSE ISSUE WHEN HE WAS IN MMD. SO SATA AND MMD THERE IS NO DIFFERENT! VOTE FOR REAL CHANGE! VOTE UPND! VOTE HH!

  67. We need to reflect on why UPND expels Panji and quickly admits Shakafuswa into the Party. Panji lacks a capacity to read the mindset of current UPND leaders. The character of UPND drastically changed after the death of Mazoka. The Party flushed out non-Tonga prominent leaders such as Patrick Chisanga, Given Lubinda, Bob Sichinga, Sakwiba Sikota because they needed to field a Tonga for Republican Presidency. History reveals the existence of an ethnic group called Bantu-Bo-Tatwe (comprised of Ila, Lenje & Tonga). This group conspired to compete against the Bemba ethnic grouping that Sata (a Mwakyusa) has been exploiting to his own advantage. Students of political science must take note and advise Panji accordingly.

  68. No77 you have a brain the size of an egg with your crap analysis which funny enough sounds like ‘convinces you’. any way .its people like you and ka Membe who are making people become awere of their ‘stone age’ tribal inclinations and loyalties. Look, Panji is a finished man and he is trying to chance which party might help solve his huge money problems whenits in power, mistakenly, i thought sata would get into state house, but alale, bamudala baloba ilya uma. Now, face reality and know that the same Bantu botatwe you speak about helped us get independent because its their money which paid for Kaunda’s air ticket and also its their areas which were bombed during raids by hostiles, up to now, go to the gweembe, you will hopefully step on one of those land mines and u will understand !

  69. Ba Jones Kalunga, we understand your plight. Get to the archives to fully appreciate the true picture that was well projected after the demise of Mazoka. Bob Sichinga, Sakwiba Sikota, Given Lubinda & Patrick Chisanga were vibrant men who projected a national character for UPND, the reason I voted for Mazoka then. Stop burrying your head in the sand. UNDP cannot win by banking their votes from Southern Province and parts of Central province, while Western Province is to be shared by all political parties. Remember, Inonge Wina is an Addis Ababa PROSTITUTE flirting with Sata. Arthur Wina must be turning with pain in his grave to note how the Lozi are being sold to a Mwakyusa tyrrant, MHSRIP.

  70. I see the PF is strong in the US. PF is a bemba party. The sad part is if PF wins the elections Zambia will b subjected the bembalism – theft, tribalism, thuggery, etc. We will soon be back in the era of FTJ where life was all about “walala wasala”. Get as much money as your hand can get from the national till. Its Sad.

  71. Shakas..welcome to UPND the next party to rule Zambia..and Ba Panji..you are sick you poor soul..Sata is just using you f.aka..you don’t have pact with any of us you f.ull

  72. I really am baffled by people who compare HH to Obama.Whts worse is that HH himself views himself as a Zambian version of Obama which is a big shame becoz the man is just lying to himself. HH has ridden on the popularity of the late great man Anderson Mazoka’s (mhsriep) popularity for far too long.He was even luckier that his widow Mutinta endorsed thgh b4 that he says “he was in the background”.When Mazoka was alive I never heard of the man.Can UPND even hold your party convntn to see if the man will not be chllnged bcz i know deep down Siakalima,Moono,Simenda,Hachipuka,Hamududu,Lumba,Mooya,Muntanga,Mwiimbu and especially Nkombo would like to vie for the presidency and i bet if any of ths dcde to go for it, HH is finished afterall most of these i have mentioned are original Mazoka…

  73. Shakafuswa from the family tree legacy…Why wait for the dissolution of parliament before you eat humble pie? You owe on the ML you drive? Dont worry we shall keep you on the bench for 2011 so that you learn a lesson…no slaughter of women at parly motel…just for 5 years…in 2016 reapply for a job with the Katuba Constituency..maybe we shall have forgiven you by then
