The Law Association of Zambia -LAZ says the barring of public media journalists from covering the opposition Patriotic Front-PF General conference shows how much the media has to do in order to win back the confidence of people with divergent views.
LAZ President Musa Mwenya has however encouraged the public media not to relent in their efforts to change the perceptions held by people with divergent views.
He was speaking to ZNBC news in an interview.
Journalists from ZNBC, Times of Zambia and the Zambia Daily Mail were on Monday barred from covering the opposition Patriotic Front first ever general conference at the Mulungushi University in Kabwe.
The action comes barely three days after LAZ President Musa Mwenya issued a statement in which he threatened that the association would consider pursuing legal options including public interest proceedings if ZNBC did not stop what he termed unbalanced news coverage.
Mr Mwenya says LAZ has observed with growing concern that news coverage by ZNBC was mostly skewed towards coverage of opinions and activities of the ruling MMD to the exclusion of other stakeholders whose opinions are not given requisite coverage.
But when contacted by ZNBC on Tuesday to comment on the barring of a ZNBC a news crew from covering the PF general conference, Mr Mwenye simply said the action shows how much the public mediums have to do in order to win back the confidence of people with divergent views.
And in his comment, PF Vice President Guy Scott said it was the policy of the PF to deny access to what he termed media institutions they consider hostile.
Meanwhile public media heads, media associations and unions have condemned the action by the opposition Patriotic Front.
ZNBC Director General Eddy Mupeso says the development comes at a time when the Law Association of Zambia -LAZ- has accused ZNBC of being biased in its news coverage.
He said ZNBC has always tried to cover all political parties and is disappointed that the PF has taken such a stance.
And in a joint statement, Zambia Daily Mail Managing Director Evans Milimo and Times of Zambia Managing Editor John Phiri said the behaviour of the PF leaders has openly shown their intolerance towards some sections of the media.
ZNBC
the big brains have now spoken. you can really see kwena ati aba mano balanda. well spoken LAZ president.
LAZ president ulefwaya fye bu attorney genera kuli ba sata.boss teti awine umtufya uyo.
It was good riddance yesterday.
Just how detached from reality could an embacile be! Read this: “ZNBC Director General Eddy Mupeso says ZNBC has always tried to cover all political parties and is disappointed that the PF has taken such a stance”. Does this S.O.B. ever listen, in case he is blind, or watch the kind of “masalamusi masipa a donki (MMD)” his station is roving down the throats and eyes and ears of Zambians everyday? When the opposition unseats Bwezani soon, the likes of Mupeso must be shot in the head, then we declare a day of national celebrations!Â
Why shld Mupeso be dissappointed,The so called Director General.does he follow ZNBC
Just do two things iwe kolwe/ nyamasoya,
announce the elction date what are you afraid of?
disolve parliament as soon as possible what are you afraid of?
“And in his comment, PF Vice President Guy Scott said it was the policy of the PF to deny access to what he termed media institutions they consider hostile” Hypothetically speaking, if PF was in power, they would close down all media organizations criticizing them. Thank God Sata will never rule Zambia.
Mwenye, we know you, you have always been a PF member and your wife is related to Sata’s wife but don’t drag LAZ into PF politics. The barring of journalist is unacceptable, this not Zimbabwe or Syria.Â
this government thinks we are fools. does this boy eddy mupeso know how angry we are against this so called state media? Mupeso be careful and don’t make us more angry with your useless comments.
Mupeso my child be realistic. First remove the log in your before worrying about the speck in my eye. When you went to college I advised you to stick to professional ethics but because of love of money you have become very subjetive and opinioned
Its rather unfortunate the we’ve gone so low as a country in terms of media coverage that we tend to favour certain politcal parties.this should be a learning curve honestly for the state owned media.they should not complain but just raise up a gear and grow up.in a democratic society this should not happen.we should look at the west and learn one or two things or go on and privatise some of this so called state media.its a wake up call.
Even if Mupeso and his boys and girls were to attend the convention, what was he going to report about? after all, who has time to read and listen to lies? we stopped a long time ago listening to his lies. Warning, if you have stolen anything from us, bring it back before its too late.
Ba ZNBC , why even get disappointed, is there surely any news to cover at PF convention.
Barring of journalists is unacceptable. It should not matter whether you consider them hostile or not, journalists have the duty to inform the public on the happenings of the nation. This is just PF exposing their intolerance with divergent views. Just the other day, Dr. Guy Scott launched scathing attacks towards the Zamb.ian W.atchdog, calling them all sorts of names simply because he perceived them as not reporting favorable on PF. This is the kind of intolerance one finds in PF.
Zambia is a nation that enjoys the free press. No one (including Dr. Guy Scott) should dictate to journalists on what they should publish and what they shouldn’t. That is a privilege journalists enjoy. Dr. Guy Scott and PF are trying to bully the media into reporting in favor of PF. We are not Zimbabwe.
Dr Scot even have the audacity to talk freely in Zed, Do you know how your friends were chased unceremoniously in Zim. Learn to respect Zed, its all we have. You chaps have dual citizenship and never cause a fire in my land. We would rather sort you out first before innocent lives are lost by greedy shameless politicians who enriched themselves in the name of swine flue.
Why make blatant borderline racist remarks…whether you like it or not he is a Zambian and making a contribution to his country and I bet if you were given an opportunity for a dual citizenship you’d take it with open arms.Â
jojo(jm) now u talking rubbish!! we are all zambians and dont try the zimbabwe propaganda here. thats for cowards and failures who cant think beyond there noses!!! people like you are dangerous to this country!!! just go vote (if u are even a registered voter) and dont bring hatred in our peaceful country!!!
Racist cow.I didn’t know we had bigots in zambia as well!What a shame.
Capitalist shut up and dont pretend
PF is done with the convention. Everyone has retained their seats. They were all unoppossed. This was to facilitate democracy and show our working together, we can do more. PF kimulilo. Ask KK if you need news
@14 znbc have put words in GS mouth. Typical of
ZNBC 13.15hrs news bulletin reported an email posted on Zambian Watchdog today. The email is allegedly from Given Lubinda to Winter Kabimba about some serious goings-on in PF. Has anyone seen it, is it true? Or is it libellous to comment on it? Please LAZ, advise soon.
#6 Mashimba the people of Zambia will the person they think will deliver.Look Ruphia has gone to Chongwe to do what to ask for forgiveness with a big brown envelop. Senior Chief Nkomensha is not like these Chiefs with no moral standards. She will speak on behalf of the voiceless and under priviledged .
#12 spare us with your crap MMD broadcasting company, MMD Diarrhoea Mail and MMD Times bomb have got exactly what they deserve. The MMD media Companies are a skull of the remienence of UNIP days when there was one party state mentality. What we have to acknowledge is that Kaunda will continue to be remembered as super Ken because he accepted that plural of political parties means all the parties should have access to the public media to air their views, political ideologies and concepts.
times of state house, Rupia Dairly Mail and zambia nonsense banda and his cooperates (ZNBC) should never complain if have conscience because are swallowing their own tails.
Media or Not Zambia is a disgrace, the quality of these ‘newspapers’ are pathetic riddled with advertisement anyway.
They should have been privatised to bring better coverage, impartiality and probably taken to a new better level. They have not changed quality wise, and they are not worth what they are worth (If you know what I mean)
ZNBC is even worse. Riddled with old programms , outdated and people reading the news who are old style and no life in them really. The websites are not updated on time, at one time I checked the Sunday times and the headline was a 7 months old newspaper.
It is rediculous Thanks
Rupia Dairly Mail
Times of State house
Zambia nonsense Banda and his cooperates (ZNBC)
Why has not Flag changed :(
Thanks
#12 ZWD is pro UPND and MMD, as a private elctronic media no one will tell ZWD to change their way of reporting, When MTV was no barred because they cover, MMD, PF and UPND in an impertial way. In the recent past Sata went to complain to these Public media about their bias reporting and they resorted to threatening Sata of legal proceedings only stopped by laws by reminding them that Sata as a citizen and a prominent politician running a second largest political party deserve better. To day you MMD cadres without shame start vomiting your usual crap bla bla bla the symptoms of the minds of diarrhoea. Infact the would have been given a good beating to remove their stupidity.William Banda has been terrorising innocent people, shikapwasha insulted the Catholic Ruphia remained mute upto now.
LAZ should be more concerned with Mmembe, the journalist whose distortions and falsehoods about MMD and Rupiah Banda are abundant. Mmembe fakes interviews by inserting verbatim quotes that were never said in the exchanges. Just three weeks ago Mmembe showed his latest flamboyant breach of decent journalism by reporting that Gen. Miyanda had given his support to Michael Sata(his preferred candidate). This disregard for journalistic ethics clearly shows that Mmembe has no interest in accuracy and balance — and is inclined toward anti-MMD forces. Mmembe’s editors should take note that he has shown himself not to be an unbiased journalist but rather one who feels all-too- happy taking sides.
“counter balance” talk facts bwana. im sure if what u say is true the post would have been sued and have many cases in court!! what do u have to say about the state owned medias reporting??????????????????? BE FAIR AND CALL A SPADE A SPADE. all papers are partisan!!!!
@ #15 Deja vu
Whether you tell me to shut up or not (which I wont because of freedom of speech), the fact remains Dr. Guy Scott and PF are a danger to the media. They are intolerant of divergent views and the proof is when Dr. Guy Scott launched scathing attacks towards the Za.mbian Watc.hdog simply because he thought they do not favor PF.
The barring of journalists is unacceptable. Dr. Guy Scott and PF should realize that Zambia is not Zimbabwe. Zambia enjoys the free press. Dr. Guy Scott and PF should realize that they cannot and should not intimidate the media into reporting favorably on PF. PF cannot and should not thug its way into a favorable story.
At last someone to stand up against the wannabe dictator pig of a man RBish.
How did the lawyers elect a PF kaponya to this important post. Look here Mrs Laz, two wrongs dont constitute a right. Even if the public media is wrong in not covering your pf, it is also wrong for your party to bar pressmen. This is the begining of tin pot dictatorship. Your are unmasking yourself too early as a PF stooge looking to be attorney general
Capitalist be honest with yourself. MMD media are there to finish of Sata. Why should your daily mail mention Sata 35 times in one edition negatively. I dont like what the Post do and I dont even read it but y our so called public media i s being abused beyond limits by cadres like ronnie. Have a blessed day
The Public Media should realize that short of praising Sata like the Post does,they will never tolerate journalists from these media houses.Just boycott them.You have nothing to lose.They will on their own come on their knees begging for coverage.Remember they will need publicity and its only ZNBC which has the largest outreach.
LUSAKA TIMES = (Times of Zambia), Daily Mail + ZNBC are all useless. You don’t want clowns to come and cover you. THANK YOU VERY MUCH PF. KEEP CHASING THEM, LET THEM GO AND COVER STATE HOUSE AND TAKE AS MANY PHOTOS OF BWEZANI AS POSSIBLE FOR HIS MEMORIES (PHOTO ALBUM). Bwezani is living this time, he like it or not. I don’t like this chap and his machination. We needed someone to HELP us, God has given us SATA the chosen one
Its obviously a pay back day for public media i believe they have learnt a lesson, if PF convention bothers them.
@ #28 Deja vu
This is not about the stories run by the TOZ, DM, ZNBC. This is about media freedom and how PF is trying to stifle it. I cannot believe you would try to justify the intolerance shown to the media by PF. Whatever the motive, the media should not be treated this way. President Banda receives attacks from the Post on a daily basis but MMD did not bar the Post from covering the convention. This just shows that PF has no respect for the media.
I cannot believe you would try to justify the wrong committed by PF. I cannot believe you would try to justify the way PF is trying to muzzle the media. Do you also support the unsolicited and scathing attacks on the Zamb.ian Wa.tchdog by Dr. Guy Scott??
Mr Capitalist get yor facts right at what happened to the post reporters who TRIED to enter the MMD convention then talk!! Oh suddenly u worry about pro gov media??? hypocrite!!!
Interesting debates indeed…Lets see what this new site (www.tumfweko.com) has in stock for us guys. I hear its blazing up already where comments are not deleted like LT and ZWD.
u done bafikala ba znbc and daily…. Â
people working for znbc should realise that they are paid using our tax payers money and tv licence. Be profetional guys and we’ll tune in back to znbc. It pains so much to pay for mahara…
The biased coverage of state media is indeed a disgrace and does not serve the nation well.
Guy Scott’s remarks that PF will not tolerate a “hostile media”, however, are also a disgrace and show that his party will do no better in bringing us balanced coverage than the current crop at MMD. To win an election (any election) the opposition must to offer something better, not more of the same.
why does Capitalist support even unjustifiable things. Is it a case of sensiless head tossed right left and centre like a headless chicken. Am a your boy but see this man is a wrong person.
Hi Folks , lets discuss issues not petty craps
On “But when contacted by ZNBC on Tuesday to comment on the barring of a ZNBC a news crew from covering the PF general conference, Mr Mwenye simply said the action shows how much the public mediums have to do in order to win back the confidence of people with divergent views” is it mediums or media?
Also, there was no need to defend PF because PF did not chase the PF Newspaper reporters who are biased in their reporting of other parties and non-Bemba by speech Zambians a thing that has probably caused PF to lose popularity in non -Bemba areas of Zambia.
Anyway, lets keep watching how events unfold now that the PF so-called Convention was just a terrible gathering ben to deceive Zambians that there is democracy in PF.
Be blest all.

Matt 6:33
but what happens on znbc about thics chinba charp
Press freedom means just that! It was wrong for PF to bar the public media from covering the event. That would have given the public a more balanced picture, other than having only the journalists that are friendly to them. It was also a MISSED OPPORTUNITY to demonstrate that should they come to power, they will be more tolerant of journalists that are not friendly. There was a better way to demonstrate that the public media are a$s h@les, other than barring them. The more players there are in the media business, the better it is for DEMOCRACY.
Is it tit for tat now? This shows what sort of government PaFwaka will have. This is one of the test of leadership for SATA. It means he can not co exist with opponents side by side.
LAZo president is not making things easier for himself, he could have sounded like he loves press freedom( although it appears he does not) and left that tirade to kaponyas.
Musa Mwenya is being real. viva LAZ abash Lupiya
Ba capitalist I only said 5 words but there you go 500 0 sentences explaining non sense
Signs of things to come!! If Sata(na) comes in power mwapya pa zed!!
And these Kaponya’s – they keep on commenting without understanding what they talking about :) You can’t ‘ban’ a media organisation in a democracy (of course Zimbabwe or Syria is a different democracy :)) Because you do not agree with what they write. imagine if Post was banned because Rupiah did not agree with what they write. I m very disappoint with this chap from LAZ, a person in that position should be above politics
RB ifimatobo ege tole lyansofu, mukachimona bafeekala ba mmd come Nov
Mwenye does not hide the fact that he is a pf stooge. The same mouth that threatened litigations against public media is now undoing his earlier position by a contradictory statement. What a cheap and dull cadre.
Mwenye is like most deluded P(oo)Fs standing on a mirage of Sata win and so he is eager to buy his way into his assumed government to be. Such a talkative yet empty moron.
Is he one of the 60 MCCs who have just ‘won’ at the convention?
who was watching sabc tv stations during there local government elections??? or who watched bbc during the u.k elections, thats what u call responsible and fair reporting!!! cum on people we can do it too if we have the will!!!
Leave us as ba PF,we dont need ZNBC coverage any where we go.Just cover William Banda,Lifwekelo,Mumbi,Chifire,Joe Malanji,Chanda Chiimba and RB.since the PF convention has been a success,we will go flat out and campain with our heads up.Other media organisations will continue covering us since its paid for unlike ZNBC which operates using tax payers money.Beta coz we didnt even beat the crap compared to MMD cadres who beat up Jounalist at inter airport in full view of Kabonde and the police command.Sori bt PF is forming Gov
@14 Racist cow.I didn’t know we had bigots in zambia as well!What a shame.
@45 Deja vu, school shapes people’s thinking, it looks like it has done nothing for you. munabwelako chabe bambo, you can’t even read three sentences, eishh!
“Ye shall…proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof;” Leviticus 25:10
“Ye shall not therefore oppress one another…” Leviticus 25:17
“…the LORD will abhor the…decietful man.” Psalms 5:6
No allowances for ZNBC, Times and Daily Mail, shame. Twalingana.
znbc and other public media should just ignore pf. the action of pf is ill advised and short sighted as per pf custom. just watch this space, pf will come back pleading as surely as the sun will rise from the east. pf has given up its right to complain if the public media ignores them during the forth coming election campaigns. balibe nzelu ba pf they can’t see beyond their noses, znbc is the only tv that can carry the picture of bwana sata across the country, and yet epo balenyela. and wait until the post differs with pf, as surely as pf differed with upnd in the pact……..watch this space. very soon mukabwela ukupapata in the usual flip flop.
Mr Mwenya be transparent when discussing national issues.Just because you are lawyer doesn’t make you a big brain.Your involvement in this issue is totally biased.In a week you have issued 2 contradicting statements.People are able to read in between the lines.If PF(GOD FORBID OO!) or UPND comes to power ,ZNBC,DAILY MAIL & TIMES will be aligned to them.It is not something new.Stop being petty for nothing
The essence of the whole thing here is that The MMD think and operate as though they are above the law RUBBISH, they don’t want to do to others as they would want others do unto them shame. The MMD government from the bigginig has been on the fore front of mis-treating other political parties in Zambia, they have monoplized all institutions including the media to suit their demands and selfish desires again what a shame. During the late chiluba’s funeral, the MMD party is on record for issuing threats to Mr. Sata, the public media was used as a champion to trade these hatred messages and william Banda was let on loose deliberatley, to vomit sentiments of hatred using the poverty riddled police service and yet nobody condenmed those actions.
pf has short memory because they can’t think beyond 90 days. it was not too long ago when bwana sata differed with post and the post vowed to ignore pf in their paper. well, not long after bwana sata with tail between legs went back to mmembe. history has a way of repeating itself, this time with the public media eyo mulepontela. when the public are advising them as citizens with foresight, they think that we are pleading with them, pf cadres awe mwandi, eishh!!
ba finyo ba fikala ba ZNBC why cry foul?
its funny
There is no corruption in Zambia, said rupiah the crook in Ndola yesterday
Today his asslickers say the state owned medias are free
Carry on !
Take us for retards ! LOL LOL LOL
cha mibaba ba mmd,why are so much concerned abt our convention,look at wat the laz prsdt has said uku chila na vise prsdt wenu GK,this guys are big brians. MWANYA umusala wali pesamba walaba pamulu.ba muvi,radio chengelo,phonix,qfm etc were there,these stations are transparent in media covering than your so called ZNBC mupeso and mmd,nga niwe ka william banda watch out,how can you involve witchcraft in politics,now we has known that you are a MMD WIZARD,INGANGA YA BA MMD.Chongwe people viva.
Deja vu  needs help his blogging is so useless,he can hardly see beyond the face of Sata.stop replying to his nonsense .
A list of MCCs that mr Sata scribbled at the back of an envelopehas been adopted unopposed as the PF ‘convention’ closed. No one actually voted, ballot boxes wewre returned without ever being used. Lets wait and see what the POST make out of this type of ‘democracy’
Please watch the ‘effort’ in the attempted dance on MUVI website, I am mauless.
MMD cadres have been harassing and beating reporters from independent media houses with the blessings of RB and William Banda. Times of Zambia, Znbc, Daily mail don’t have professional people at the moment, they are been run by MMD cadres. Why should PF allow MMD cadres in their conference? They did well to bar them and avoid MMD thugs to infiltrate and cause chaos which they are good at. Â
@13 Mr Capitalist, you sound like you have an eye glued to the media, could you also tell the public how Zambia ranks on the press freedom map.
we don’t have leaders in Zambia, they are all job seekers who mind only there own pockets. chamusebanya
“ZNBC has always tried to cover all political parties” – What a big lie from this ZNBC director. He is such a big liar!
@67, I thought even Times of Zambia reporters were also harrassed and beaten by MMD cadres.
Michaelme: I dont need MMD help. Dont insult my freedom of expression which your media have thrown to the wind. When I was i high school I was priveleged to attend a 7 days journalist seminar at Mindolo and one of the things I learned was NEVER TO ADD YOUR OPINION TO THE NEWS is znbc abiding by this simple rule? Who knows may be your reporters were MMd Trojan Horse to go and cause confusion at the convention
Even Mushota makes more sense than mmd media
@64 Michaelme, good advice mate, good advice. your observation on Deja vu is well founded, you can’t put it any better than that.
It was good for PF to bar Daily Smell, Times of Statehouse and Zambia Nuissance Broacdcasting Crap(DeadNBC) because all they report about PF are rebels MPs talking abt Sata nd UPNDs HaHa talking sh1t such as Sata supporting Homos/conducting a roll call @ funerals nd see who has come or not…..in the end people pay TV levy…nowonder i really on medias such as LT though i authenticate the story by checking out the source…
@ine ndiwasele. ulicipuba uletasha umuntu nga alanda ifyamano. Ba LAZX president apa nabalabilafye ifyamano.
74 Jury – What advise? Is game fixing included in a Professional Footballers conditions? This what your so called media houses are doing
Let them cover their Non Governmental Individuals,these begging chaps Lifwekelo,Chifire, Dora Castle lager, and Ronnie air driver
Its Tit for Tat !
It iz common knowledge that when the so called public media sayz anything about PF, they are either condemning or finding some fault. So they went to conference just to find something negative to publish and they got what they wanted.
All media houses in this country are pathetic i would personally chase them if they approached me with a view to getting a comment from me on anything.They have simply lost all professinalism and as the adage goes the media in Zambia has gone to the dogs. The current debate is therefore neither here nor there. All they do is misform instead of informing.
80 THE ONLY LIVING JAY – Ever heard of the Trojan Horse? This is exactly what those reporters were. Their aim was to enter the centre and start paying money to some deligates who were in turn going to disrupt the proceedings. Old tricks cant work on an old fox like Sata.Always one step a head. For those who have never read this story of the TROJAN HORSE, just go to your dictionary
From 82-The Trojan Horse is a tale from the Trojan War, It was the stratagem that allowed the Greeks finally to enter the city of Troy and end the conflict.
In one version, after a fruitless 10-year siege, the Greeks constructed a huge wooden horse, and hid a select force of 30 men inside. The Greeks pretended to sail away, and the Trojans pulled the horse into their city as a victory trophy. That night the Greek force crept out of the horse and opened the gates for the rest of the Greek army, which had sailed back under cover of night. The Greek army entered and destroyed the city of Troy, decisively ending the war.
..Did anybody expect any civility at the convention? Do Kaponyaz behave in a civil manner? Do real Democrates ban the press from an event? This was expected, and it should not come as a surprise.
You are a very big fool. You mean you cant see how the whole country contributes K3000 each TV holder to support MMD campaign on ZNBC. At what level of Sebana Wikute are you? Those characters have no manner and we know they are paid. They went there to twist issues and come up with funny documentaries such as Chanda Muchende. How much money is MMD paying for his body guards anyway and whose money is it? Tax Payers Money.
I support the move by PF because the motive for ZNBC, Daily Mail and Times were wrong, going by their cadre behavior. In fact, MMD is promoting violence in this nation by sponsoring characters like Chamba Chende, Lupwekelo and academic failures like Gorigori Kifile (the guy is actually a CBU drop out, part time once and excluded twice) and all those Sebana Wikute dunderheads.
If MMD are true leaders, they should campaign objectively instead of only talking about individuals. It really hurts me to contribute my hard earned K3000 every month to MMD-ZNBC to facilitate their campaign junk. In fact, ZNBC is an institution made of human robots headed by the chief Sebana Wikute who was deliberately fished from his poverty trap to redeem himself.
Just to add that Lifwekelo is just a grade 12, who failed to even get into college – now he is a nation opinion former and leader! This is a sad joke.
he’s a cadre for PF ..we know them..
86 Pulamasaka – Lungu was an MMD cadre. His brother is an MMD district chairman somewhere
Rupia Dairy Mail, Times of State house, Zambia nonsense Banda and his cooperates (ZNBC) these cannot not change the way of working as long we have undemocratic govt who are thieves fearing thier thieft to be exposed when there is change of govt. for mmd is death and life.
i hope this will serve as a lesson to the public media, it was too much and now they were emarrased, guys have you checked out this site? google ‘tumfweko’ i’m liking it,Â
Don’t be fooled…this LAZ President is a PF cadre from time immemorial, even his wife and father in lwa are PF, his father in law even lost elections under PF in 2006 after being sacked as Auditor General who even did everything for the wedding of LAZ president to his dota using officice money…shame today this mouth is sayn what?
Does LAZ have a mechanism for desciplining an erring president who is embarrasing the organisation, or is it srtructured like the PF?
Musa is a good guy.I dont think he can be used by kaponyaz.
Thanks #13 for a well balanced comment.
# 13 & # 93 – is misinforming the public media duty??
Zambia ( – education x media propaganda) + poverty = W.A.R??
ZNBC, DAILY MAIL and the TIMES OF ZAMBIA are just cry babies who are trying to win cheap sympathy from the unsuspecting Zambian public. Since when did these characters ever positively cover the PF. They were there hoping to nitpick on the goings-on at the rock of authority and come up with screaming headlines against the PF. They got what they deserved. If they cannot learn to respect others in society, why should they expect others to treat them with respect! Journalists in developed democracies are not just with a certificate or diploma from Mindolo or Hone or a mere masscom degree from UNZA. They are specialists with higher degrees in politics, laws, economics, business etc. We need highly qualified and experienced people in the media and not cadres with no ethics posing as journalists
can you trust someone who rapes you everyday to “cover” you fairly?? publice media is responsible for its own Sh*t that is what he is saying. So ba media, please find some tissue and do the right thing for goodness sake.
i feel for the people working at ZNBC under such an environment. mind youi all ZNBC workers are PF, or sorry Donch kubeba!
bad environment yes, misinforming public Noooo!! that is what he is saying to the guys who have takeover public media. no hard feeling against brothers & sisters there bt someone hs to show the wrong which can coz trouble if the election is deemed unfair on account of baised media – which is very serious for all of us.
bad journalism is as dangerous as an engineer building a sky scraper with poor materials becoz the boss threatens him to use such material!!
Thank you for the auspicious writeup. It actually was once a enjoyment account it. Look complicated to far brought agreeable from you! By the way, how can we communicate?
