Former Works and Supply Minister Mike Mulongoti says it is hypocrisy of the highest kind for President Rupiah Banda and the ruling MMD to claim to have loved late former President Fredrick Chiluba now that he is dead.

Mr. Mulongoti expressed sadness that the ruling MMD could turn around and claim to have loved Dr Chiluba dearly and condemn Patriotic Front, PF leader Michael Sata for not attending the funeral.

He questions how the ruling party expects Mr Sata to visit the funeral house when MMD cadres have threatened to harm him.

Mr. Mulongoti says despite security assurances by Chief Government Spokesperson Ronnie Shikapwasha for would be mourners; the funeral place is still not safe for certain people.

He expressed disappointment that General Shikapwasha at his level as a minister could issue such a statement encouraging people to go to the funeral house to be harassed by MMD cadres.

He states that it would have been better if president Banda had assured the public of security at the funeral and asked the Inspector General of Police to provide security to opposition political party leaders with their delegations as a sign of unity and peace.

Mr. Mulongoti however said that people will still find a way to visit the family of the late president after burial despite being barred from attending the funeral.

  1. Fumapa kaswaini. If you were not fired it would have been you opening your gob about Sata

    The only people who lose out are Zambians. 

    By the way the past week has been the longest ever. All because of a certain Lazo

  2. Whoever participated in the removal of FTJ’s immunity back then,Mulongoti inclusive and all MMD members of parliament who are shedding crocodile tears are a bunch of hypocrits. I can excuse RB because he wasnt in parliament then,but the likes of George Kunda,Shikapwasha,Mulongoti need to bury their heads in shame really.The moment the stripped FTJ of his immunity,thats when they signed his death warranty,the man was dead from the inside,he was haunted,he was not a happy man.I still have no kind words for him

  3. Oh please shut up. We don’t want politics concerning the late Dr. FTJ Chiluba’s death. If you have nothing constructive to say, please shut it.

  4. The funny thing about this whole thing is the shameless Post today trying to make capital out of the dead Chiluba. Trying to make the chiefs appear aggrieved and hoping that RB will say that the body cannot be sent to Mansa and appear totally uncaring. If he sent the body to Mansa, wouldn’t other provincial centres also want the same? Then the story would now be RB trying to get sympathy votes. Shameless indeed. And this Mulongoti. I used to think he was dull, but his comment here begs belief. I thought RB had attracted the ire of all Zambians of all shades because of his association with Chiluba and his (Chiluba’s) purpoted ‘acquittal’ from his cases of many years. Where was this ka man all this time when all this was happening. Madness or what?

  5. Mulongoti and others are just scared of their own shadows. If one visited the funeral lodge and got beaten up then the law will take its cause. The problem that we have is insulting each other day in day out and when things like funerals happen we fear to attend coz of what we have been throwing at each other. Why should RB as head of state do the job for the police. RB is not GRZ Chief Spokesman its Ronnie and why should he be doubted when he makes an assurance that no one will be harrased by MMD cadres. Its fear of the unknown. To quote Super Ken “Little small men scared of their own shadows.”

  6. Mwebaume what does this mean ”The 68-year-old Chiluba died of an “unknown attack” at his home in Kabulonga in the early hours of last Saturday. His children had demanded and signed a consent for a postmortem to ascertain the cause of his death, but elderly family members warned them that they would be cursed and run mad if they insisted on their demands” The Post.

  7. Sorry,the problem here is that MMD does not know how to say things,how do you invite President Sata and your voice and face are panicking.Be humble and make friendly invitation not bring ma thugs on ZNBC and you thing human being is Mad.Pastors I feel you are also a problem ,preach Jesus and not chiluba and Sata,is it a love of Money or you do not know your callings.

  8. Mulongoti is proving to a nuisance in Zambian politics. We do not expect any sane person who rose to position of Minister would sink so low to the extent of exposing insenstive immaturity at this period of national mourning. He is the most dangerous pretender we have ever witnessed in the SADC region. What does he hope to achieve by his downright dirty and inhuman attacks on the very colleagues whom he interacted in Govt? Mulongoti will soon develop the most lethal stress that will triger compicated psychosomatic illnesses. Silent observation would have been the most civilised option. Otherwise regional issues at play through FTJ’s demise will haunt him and his entire family.

  9. Iyoo ka Chiluba kashupa, ala the thief is dead, just rejoice. I hope the 8 million US wont be given to the family pantu Shikapwasha na Rubbish Banda amano tapaba iyoo. CHILUBA WAS A THIEF and NOW A DEAD THIEF. I hope he rots in hell.

  13. Yaba. Everything its politics. The late is ex-President. I wonder why Cabinet Office did not print the GRZ chitenge attire for this solemn national event instead all mourners are being treated to the MMD?RB robes! Adios FTJ. MHISRIP.

  14. #7 It is long time you were in zambia if you are beaten by mmd nothing will happen to them infact they say you provoked them by going where they were the did in self defence.

  15. Mulongoti popularly known as a ‘ political mosquito’, will always remain cunning, it’s only people like Mpombo who knows him very well.

  16. Politics is really a dirty game!!! Mulongoti is now speaking from the terraces. The man who supported chiluba’s aquittal cannot even attend his funeral for fear of being beaten. He said one can even visit the funeral house even after burial. Why not now? Muyopa chinji a mulongoti? Nkoyani ku malilo ya ayanu a chiluba!!!

  17. Why do people even bother to give this man any media attention at all?
    Mulongoti is a loser!
    He is corrupt because he wanted RB to be President so that he can hand over to him. They planned together with Teta that RB, being an old man, would make Mulongoti Vice President and hand over to Teta as President. That is why they supported RB’s nomination. Mulongoti is a selfish and corrupt man. He has no integrity to talk about, so let him not pretend.

  18. Bane mulelemba bwino icisungu please.Is it internal or eternal peace?

    m

  20. Mr.Mulongoti you are the founding father of hypocrisy. A betrayer of the Zambian democracy. You have no principles and are jumping from one party to the other just because of greedy.
