I have not resigned, Angela Cifire

Share

Deputy Minister Angela Chifire (l)

Luangeni Member of Parliament Angela Cifire has dismissed rumours that she has resigned from the ruling MMD.

Ms Cifire who is also information and Broadcasting Services Deputy Minister has described the speculations as unfounded.

She told ZNBC News in Luangeni Thursday morning that she has no intentions of resigning from the MMD.

Ms Cifire who is on a tour of her constituency, has pledged her continued loyalty to the ruling party.

On Tuesday, MMD Chairperson for Elections Gabriel Namulambe and Labour Minister Austin Liato also dismissed as false speculations that they had intentions to leave the MMD.

Mr Namulambe wondered why some people were peddling lies about him when he holds positions as cabinet minister and party chairperson for elections.

And Mr Liato said he and Mr Namulambe are still strong in their constituencies and wondered why they cherish the idea of ditching the MMD.

  1. I remember a blogger yesterday referred to MMD as banakapelele. Very befitting. These people are always flitting around aimlessly and fluttering to the ground in a wingless mess.

  2. The embassy in Washington DC is holding a prayer service ‘for Zambia’ at the end of the month and they are asking for people to join them.

    Now that the cloud of unemployment is looming they want our prayers! Awe sure Ms. Siwela and Ben Kangwa, that sounds like your own problem, don’t implore us.

  3. Thats the way to go Madame. POST is finished . You are not as cheap as Masebo and others who want to adopt the 1991 model of defection. You see politics is dynamic, what worked in 1991 may not work in 2011. So never be fooled by the serpant.

  4. RB just dissolve Parlia and announce the election date and you’ll see dirty rats swimming away from a sinking ship ‘cos you won’t have control over them!!

  5. If at all you decide to resign Angela just go to the village no one needs you or better join your useless political bootlicker namesake of yours Gregory.

  6. Donchi Kubeba iliko bad. They are on a mission to milk the oldman and then dump him on “Donchi Kubeba”. Wina azalila.

  7. let’s wait and see. when we say that we need change it’s true no one will stop us. iwe ka Angela remember those old good days at Zesco vintu vichinga and this time RB you are going back to the farm mukudya tumbeba hahahahaha

  8. I thought I told you that I will resign after parliamnet has been dissolved becoz I’m currently enjoying allowances and free govt fuel. Do you know how sweet it to enjoy these facilities? Ask Gabriel.

  9. I think the people who say there will be a mass exodus from the MMD once parliament is dissolved and election date announced. This is causing the president sleepless nights and panic.
    A report elsewhere says some state house staff suspected of leaking information to the opposition and the ‘hostile press’ are being hounded out and transferred to districts. Indeed these are signs of the times.

  10. A minister who says that “there is nothing sweeter than being a full cabinet minister” is not a good Minister. Problem in Africa being a Minister is not for the people, but for your pockets and survival. I feel sorry for Zambia and its people if this is what Minister think about their positions. The words from the Minister meant a lot things about of all of them, none had anything to do with service.

  11. On a serious note, any MP, MMD or PF is very free to resign if s(he) sees all the signs that s/he is not being adopted by the party.

  12. Chifire, just defect ’cause there is no time to waste! Remember if you are clean and not corrupt, this is the right time to make a decision which inspires the electorate. Do not say I wasn’r sure, be brave…Ubwatoo is cruising with Captain Sata. You are welcome in PF….

  13. cifire the doors of an ark are not yet closed hurry up cause a heavy down pour is expected once the election date is announced,and you will drown if you wont board it.

  14. Please all my cadres here, dont embarass me by silivating for MMD members like Cifire. The change Iam trying to bring should not just be in NAME-PF. Its supposed to be different even in manpower. What can Cifire add to Pabwato? Look,I am now stuck with the likes of broke Chitala, kapitao Mulongoti, cheque job Mpombo,fuel thief Mwanawasa, leg power Masebo, local court cases Nsanda, primtive GBM,serial thief Mark Mushili,tribalist Kambwili,parliament fighter Mumbi Phiri, swine fever Guy Scott, completely finished politician Wendy Sinkala, tasintha professor Luo, the list is endless. Dont embarass me. I needed proper material from UPND but my lust for GAYS almost ruined me .DONCHI KEBEBA! ITS 90 DAYS.

  15. The MMD MPs or ministers who are trying to jump on the boat will have a shock of heir lives when all of a sudden the boat will start shaking and the captain will point fingers and they will be dumped into the sea to keep the boat afloat. You cannot trust the boat captain because he believes in not telling the people what is on his mind. WHAT WAS IN HIS MIND WHEN HE PUT MASEBO ON A GORGEOUS SEAT AND POOR INONGE ON AN ORDINARY CHAIR – By the way I thought Inonge was the Chair Person for the Party. Cadres just help me understand this – the pictures about this are in your Post and all over the internet.

    • If you have relatives in MMD sorry it’s DON’T KUBEBA. you are going and PF coming in. Are you watching ZNBC to see how MMD is scared of Sata? they are panting like a rat that is suffocating. If you are in USA continue eating because your relatives will be no more after the elections.

  16. “She told ZNBC News in Luangeni Thursday morning that she has no intentions of resigning from the MMD.” which thursday?

  17. Thats why rupia is scared to dissolve parly and announce the election dates! He knows that a catastrophic political tsunami is looming and will hit em hard in their faces!

  18. The party with members who don’t know which direction they are heading!!! Just as well their leader doesn’t know which direction he is heading, thus running around like a headless chicken, firing OP officers, ministers!! Hopefully he might just fire himself one of these days, “inshala!!”

  19. The PF and its minions (Post) are feeling the heat and that is why they are busy spreading false rumours abt defections,all in an attempt to paint a picture that PF is gaining ground. well, only shallow minded people will believe this foul mouthed propaganda which will not work. They are jittery becoz they got drug money from Afganistan and the drug kingpins will be on them once elections are over bcoz they will have nothing to pay back for the money they have goten.wapya munzi,watch this space…………………

  20. MMD is done. The president Banda is scared to announce the election date and he is further scared with the wind of change in all directions of the country. Every where it is Don’t Kubeba. They have tried to use chiefs and ZNBC to propagate lies about PF but it is Don’t kubeba. You will be surprised that come election time Mr. Banda will be alone with hero worshipers. Let Mr. Banda dissolve cabinet and he will see that indeed things have changed. Defections are not a lie but it is Don’t kubeba. Is the defections of mulongoti, silvia, mangani and Kazabu’s false rumours. More are coming because MMD is done. With or without Angela Cifire PF is forming government after elections. DON’T KUBEBA

  21. WELL, MAYBE NOT JUST NOW YET………..BUT , THE CHIBWATO IS STILL WAITING FOR ALL THOSE WHO FEEL HAVE BEEN GIVEN A RAW DEAL BY THE MOVEMENT FOR MASSIVE DRUNKARDS (MMD)…….ABALEYA, ABALEYA, ABALEYA………….BYE, BYE POLIO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  22. PF are inviting those frustrated to join them. HaVE YOU FORGOTTEN HOW THE MACHUNGWAS JOINED AND NOW YOUR ARE CRYING.

  23. Why calling for prayers for Zambia in Washington DC. Let Ms Shiela Siwale, Ben Kangwa and others pray for the MMD to win to keep their jobs. I have never heard diplomats accredited to Zambia praying for their countries as they go to elections. All I hear are functions for their national days. Why are we Zambians pretend to behave as though we are the only annoited pipo on earth such that each we kneel down and offer prayers God answers them instantly. We neet to have unfailing faith in the Almighty God as we offer our petitions and prayers all time and not only remember him when things are not going our expectations. That is being unfaithful. May the embassy staff if tghey know MMD will out start packing their katunda for Lusaka.
