FORMER Patriotic Front (PF) Secretary General Edward Mumbi has said PF leader Michael Sata has now resorted to using the language of callboys because he has no campaign platform which he can use to gain and hold the confidence of serious-minded Zambians ahead of the 2011 elections.
Mr Mumbi said the callboys language which Mr Sata was now using should make the PF leader’s sympathisers to doubt his caliber to provide quality leadership like President Rupiah Banda had done in the last two years he has been in office.
He was reacting to a story in some sections of the media where Mr Sata was quoted telling Lusaka residents to get geysers that the MMD Government had brought, but “don’t Kubeba.”(Don’t tell them)
He said Mr Sata was shaken with the achievements made by the ruling MMD and President Banda because he was aware that the MMD had set the stage for victory in the 2011 elections.
“Mr Sata may think don’t kubeba is against the ruling MMD, but he will be shocked that the same don’t kubeba works against him. People may be saying do not tell the PF that we have turned against them because of their hooliganism,”
“Looking at what the ruling MMD under President Banda has done, I can safely say the ruling party is set for victory and this is why even Mr Sata is shaken. He is shaken, but instead of campaigning on issues that will help him gain and hold the confidence of the electorate, he has resorted to using the language of callboys. The man is totally stuck and the only issue he has is to explain to the Zambians his support for homosexuality,” he said.
He said Zambians should realise that Mr Sata was totally blank and had no platform on which to base his campaign because everything he would want to tell the people that he would come and do, had already been done by President Banda.
Mr Mumbi also said if Mr Sata was elected as Republican president in the 2011 elections, he would easily get rid of the rich traditional culture of Zambia and replace it with the culture of homosexuality and lesbianism.
He said, unlike some opposition leaders who attend some traditional ceremonies together with President Banda or Vice-President George Kunda, Mr Sata has never attended any traditional ceremony to show regard for Zambia’s traditional culture.
Mr Sata was a very bad leader and that it was not coincidence that whoever had worked with him, was complaining about his dictatorial kind of leadership.
He said even those misled Zambians who think their lives would improve if Mr Sata became Republican president would live to regret because PF and Mr Sata had no plans for Zambia.
Zambians, especially youths would live to regret in an unlikely event that Mr Sata was elected because the PF leader had no plans for the country while the governance of the country would overnight become dictatorial rule.
He said Mr Sata has already exhibited bad leadership through his inconsistences and he should not be entrusted with the authority of Republican presidency because he would easily put the Zambia’s economy and security at risk.
Meanwhile, Anglican Church in Central Africa has re-affirmed its stance against the practice of homosexuality.
Anglican Province of Central Africa overseer Albert Chama said in Kitwe at the weekend that the church would continue to make it clear that it would not condone homosexuality.
Archbishop Chama said the church wanted to ensure every member in the province was aware of its stance on the subject.
He said the church should not be misunderstood when it interacted with the rest of the Anglican community around the world, some of whom could have allowed the practice.
“We have made it very clear even to churches around the world that we interact with that if there are any members or priests that practice homosexuality, they should keep them away from us,” he said.
Archbishop Chama said it was not an issue that the church would shift its position and that the Anglican community in Zambia and the rest of the province should be assured.
The Anglican Central African Province comprises Zambia, Malawi, Botswana and Zimbabwe.

Mumbi has now taken over the roll of MMD spokesman. Just address him as Mumbi and not Former SG of PF. Why cling to PF tag? This cleary shows that PF is a force to reckon with and Mumbi knows it is only PF that makes him popular. That is even LT would not stop using the former title for Mumbi.
With the coming on board of young pipo like Muhabi Lungu, Elia Chipmo, HH, etc, pipo like Sata, William Banda who only know insults politics of UNIP will now be irrelevent.
iiiiiiiiiiiisssss this mumbi guy surely normal????
DON’T KUBEBA
I’m loving it.
Get the incentives from corrupt MMD but in the BOOTH NI DONCH KUBEBA.
Bring the eleventh hour development,boast about your achivements and developmental projects,bribe us and we will tell you that we are behind you BUT come 2011 NI DONT KUBEBA.
VIVA WIND OF CHANGE.
This Mumbi is a lousy stinking character. From the blogs I have come across, the “Don’t Kubeba” phrase is used by very educated, young, energetic youths who have access to information and know how to use their influence to swing things in any way they like. Watch out Mr Stink Mouth Mumbi. The phrase might just work against you and your MMD. Don’t underestimate the youth and don’t underrate any of the opposition.
this seed mmd has planted shall last for a long time of hiring people for personality asassination in politics even if sata will go this will remain and we have drawn our own democracy backwards. it interesting people of non factor how have found govt media coverage. rb said will use they all means to win that the means is using hiring i am sure tomorrow will start to hire even to kill
The MMD is forever talking about Sata, day in day out. He’s always in the news making headlines. He’s more popular now than even when he was in the pact. Strange. Anyway, only the voters will decide the outcome of this election. Whether you like it or not, once a voter is in the booth, their choice is theirs and theirs only.
Awe kwena ba Mumbi bena bapuba!
Bye bye Mumbi soon we won’t have to hear your drivel
Mumbi wa lu lumbi!! mumbi wa lu lumbi!! mumbwe wa lu lumbi !! MUMBWE WA LU LUMBI!!
MUMBWE WA LU LUMBI ba MU LIYA ku chibanda !! Chi banda nshi?? Chi banda MMD!!!
I wonder why mmd still listen to Edward Mumbi. What has happened to the US$100,000.00 case against Mr. Sata?
It is clear to me that this thug is being funded by the Tax-payers. Where does he find the money to hire body-guards?
MUMBI ULIMBUSHI SANA!!BUT WE WILL SHOW YOU MWAICE.
IT IS YOU FOOLISH MUMBI WHO HAS NO CAMPAIGN PLATFORM…AND YOUR RAMBLING AND NOISE MAKING YOU HAVE BEEN MAKING WILL COST RB SOME VALUABLE VOTES…
Ba Mumbi – have you forgotten that this same Sata presented a lecture at Oxford University??
I thought MMD consider ‘donchi kubeba’ as a coded message to homosexuals?
Mumbi…. having a ka secret beer pa state house will not gain you anything…..soon you will be a prodigal son to ba Sata…. mind what you vomit it might be your next meal
ala e Mumbi uyu beba. Mwebantu Lishilu lyamwana.Twalekula nao. Elyo alitemwa ukulya amafisa kanwa. Mambala he stinks corruption,sleeps corruption,think curruption, moving in corruptions and he has a corrupt face. He need spiritual intevention. abakwete holy spirit should pray for this man. He is a devil advocate.
Aka ka muntu kapuba bane. He seems to have lost even the little morals he remained with.
Those who don’t know corruption, don’t be fooled by Mr Sata and the Post, corruption is another name for PF. PF is the Alpha and Omega of corruption, the Dons in PF are just hoping that fools will give them the mandate.
You cant stop the unstoppable….I have been to university and dont mind using the “Call boys language”…so here goes….”DONCHI KUBEBA”….
Fullish Chap, LT ba fi colour naimwe everything niku “times of Banda” . . .mwaba armour fee.
shut up….just say you are looking for food you *****! you politicians have no shame…you will soon start condemning the MMD after they kick you out…..
Mumbi knows what he is talking about, lets be honest the best person who knows someone, is the person who spent a lot of time with them
ANy of you here mumbling and cursing Mr Mumbi are deluded and needs mental interference, This man what Mr Sata’s right handed man, If you think he is delusional you probably are and need your head examined. Silly pretenders, dullness of these ‘zambian men’, You are looking but you cant see, Mumbi is an achiles in Mr Sata’s life and let is all hear and respect him?
Thanks
Mushota ka shinde.
This stupid annoying political vuvuzela annoys me. Doesnt he have other pipo 2 talk about? Marubbish ya muntu. Atase!
poverty hs gotten to this short man is head
Honestly, who escorts Mumbi? I would rather be a call boy than escorting this nitwit. Are these bodyguards RB or William Banda detailed? Cause, unemployment.
Mushota amilasa bakaponya imwe. You muppets should realise that your leader the King Snake has run out of ideas. RB is delivering on all fronts. Schools, roads, hospitals, are springing up all over the country, mobile hospitals are a big success delivering quality and free health to the poor and restoring sight to the blind. Bumper harvets are there for all to see, free electricity connections, free geysers – leaving Sata with nothing to lie about but shout don’t Kubeba. Lousy slogan.
@ Mushota
Tell them, that is the way to go!!!
