MMD spokesperson Dora Siliya has criticized people advocating for change of government in Zambia saying they have no heart for the country and the sufferings of the people.

Speaking when she met heads of government departments, parastatal organizations, civil society groups and NGO’s in Mufulira over the weekend, Ms Siliya said the MMD government under the leadership of President Rupiah Banda has scored tremendous strides in developing the country.

Ms. Siliya further said the MMD government under the able leadership of President Banda has reduced poverty among Zambians, a reason she said Zambians need to maintain the current government beyond this years’ general elections.

She said the MMD has changed party leaders and ministers over the past years it has been in power unlike some opposition political parties that have had the same leaders for over ten years.

She urged the people of Zambia to judge the MMD based on what they have done in terms of development as they call for change of government.

She further noted that Zambians should judge the MMD based on what the party’s political opponents have done and what they are capable of doing.

Ms Siliya cited some opposition political leaders that are advocating for legalization of homosexuality in the country and wondered if that is the change the people of Zambia needed.

She said change of government should only be done when the current one fails and not just calling for change without serious reasoning.

She however stressed that the MMD under the leadership of President Banda has not failed because it was revamping all sectors of the economy among them the increase in investments in the mining sector, tourism, agriculture and infrastructure development.

  1. can you tell people what they donot know, just imagine you canot change the tide ,change is inevitable when it is about to rain you see the clouds you cant change the minds of people they have had enough of this govt

  2. Dora Siliya. 
    Maybe we shouldn’t even have election at all, since the MMD government under the leadership of President Rupiah Banda has scored tremendous strides in developing the country. ?

  3. ‘PAMAKA’ ANNOYS SILIYA IN NDOLA!
    MMD Spokeperson Dora Siliya was yesterday infuriated by Ndola residents who screamed the PF Bemba slogan Pamaka (Power) towards her entourage.
    “mulelanda landa fye pamaka pamaka..for what? When you have lagged behind in development. You people of Ndola produced two president, Mwanawasa and Ba Chiluba, but you are still behind because mulanda fye pamaka! Pamaka! Ubunonsh (development) waba in other areas..ku Solwezi..and other areas..

  4. Dora – It is not for you to decide when to change govt. Democracy means people’s choice you ignorant blob

  5. FORMER works and supply deputy minister Lameck Mangani yesterday brought Chipata town to a standstill.

    And Mangani says there is nothing personal between him and President Rupiah Banda except that Zambians are fatigued with the MMD and want change. MANY THANKS MANGANI FOR ACKNOWLEDGING THAT PEOPLE WANT CHANGE BECAUSE MMD IS NOW A NEW UNIP IN NEW FORM.

  6. Ku ya bebele mayo, winds of change are inevitable. Soon you will jobless like most zambians. we shall wait and see, you will also want to change camp.politics of the belly.

  7. Dora, you are one reason why the MMD govt must go.
    You are corrupt and you do not fit even a faint description of a leader. There is nothing that you have exhibited that inspires the general citizenry or women in particular.
    Can you tackle real issues like corruption on your campaign trail?
    Every time you open your mouth you sound like someone who instead of going to school went to screw. You are a fat shameless liar.

  8. But this useless sperm chamber has really gone too far.If BANDA hes doing a good job the people of zambia will see for themselves,if development is conspicous as being purpoted ,the people will give you a fresh mandate.By the way is she at this workshop(whatever) as an MMD spokesperson or as a govt official?? if as a govt official ,she should be reported for using gvt resources for campaign.I HATE THE MMD….!!!

  9. Let the pipo decide!Start worrying about yourself Dora.After all you have said against PF,u do not stand a chance getting a job after the loss of MMD. If u intend to shift camps,make objective statements. Pantu wafwa!Anyway u know how you got your jobs.You have a bad reputation about what u do to get them good jobs. Let us be realistic folks.

  10. They won’t stop abusing the public resources as long as RB plays delaying tactics to announce elections day. George Kunda told Parly that Ministers must be allowed to continue syphoning from the public resources after Parly adjourns. This can only stop if Zambians stopped just talking and took to the streets to show MMD who has the power. But we can’t, that’s MMD politicians take the whole citizenry as fools, and they continue doing what they are doing with impunity, NO PEOPLE POWER. Yes, we are F..O…O…L….S, only good at complaining. It hates me to see my country like this….

  11. # 11 I like that ” useless sperm chamber” lol I tell you what I would have a go on it but I’d use protection incase Kunda has been there. I wonder if RBISH has? lol

  12. #13 You are absolutely right…. Kunda is foolish he was side lined in Kabwe at MMD convention and no one gave him any respect…tuma lips yaba…. Dora Siliya is the next VP should MMD win….. why do you think she shows her hips like that so President Banda can see and adore….. Mayo kuyabebele

  13. Dora Siliya thinks Zambians are dont think. She thinks when she stays next to Bwezani and eats the three meal means everyone else is…we mbu wa we

  14. MMD had failed to bring development in 20 years. It’s a pipedream they will in 5, as there a bunch of completely dull Individuals. Our minds are set and change is coing, either by hook or crook

  15. “Sometimes change can occur just for the sake of it. As for the Zambian case, it not about whether the MMD has scored tremendous strides in developing the country or the opposition political parties are promising more or less. Change is inevitable regardless of whether the economy is growing or not.”

  16. “Sometimes change can occur just for the sake of it. As for the Zambian case, it is not about whether the MMD has scored tremendous strides in developing the country or the opposition political parties are promising more or less. Change is inevitable regardless of whether the economy is growing or not.”

  17. Dora knows she will end up in court the month MMD are out. That is why she is begging us to vote MMD. Kuya bebele. Your time is up. 20 yrs is enough. Change is needed.

  18. Sorry Madam your body Guard has just called me that he will vote for Mr Sata imagine no wonder at times, if you have noticed he does some assignments you give him in the wrong way.Remember that year People at State House voted for the opposition and this is what is happening.

  19. Namakwenkwe, you are a younger gen. you should have brought new ideals to MMD, instead you have become their pawn

  20. This one is one big ID oi ts among the many in the MMD. She has managed to destroy the party bcause of her Open leg polocy. Ni Dont Kubeba. beg as Much as you can but its Kuya bebele.

  21. REAL change is inevitable whether you have succsfully scored or not..it gives a good sense & scent of freshness. Can you simply give us reasons why you keep changing shoes,dresses,pants, lipstick?

  22. Dora Dora Dora….I recon it’s the last kicks of the dying horse. Your time is up with your boyfriends. I recall attending your wedding receptionwith Chisha Folotiya at Fringilla farms in Chisamba. I bet the young man did a reasonable thing to leave you as his wife. You have no integrity, manners, above all a prostitute. You are not a good model to our children of today. God forbid, this will mark the end of your politics. Zambians cannot be fooled. What comes out of your mouth is all malice. I would probably advice you to concentrate on one job as a sperm donor because that is what we know you of. LONG LIVE PF LONG LIVE SATA. MMD kuya bebele.

  23. APPARENTLY,APART FROM KUMAWA,THERE IS NOWHERE ELSE MMD WILL SCORE BETTER COMPARED TO THE PREVIOUS ELECTIONS. HH HAS OUTDONE YOU IN MOST OF YOUR RURAL STRONGHOLDS..ELECTIONS FOR 2011 ARE TRICK..LOOKS LIKE THERE ARE MORE RABBITS INTERESTED IN THE RACE THAN ELEPHANTS..

  24. She further noted that Zambians should judge the MMD based on what the party’s political opponents have done and what they are capable of doing.

    YOU ARE USING OUR MONEY TO CARRY OUT GOVERNMENT PROGRAMMES. THE OPPOSITION HAVE NOTHING AND ARE NOT INCHARGE OF THE TREASURY SO HOW DO WE JUDGE THEM IN COMPARISON WITH YOUR PARTY? WE WILL GIVE THEM OUR VOTE SO WE CAN SEE HOW GOOD THEY ARE BECAUSE YOUR MMD HAS HILARIOUSLY AND HURTFULLY FAILED TO DEVELOP THE NATION.

  25. waba ichinyo Dora.how could you open your anus and say mmd has reduced poverty?do you ever move?bitch………..muleya bonse

  26. Please, please fellow Zambians no matter how strongly we feel about the mess created by the MMD in our country let us exercise restraint and avoid insults and swear words.

  27. Rbish’s choices and planning will cost him,how do you send this whore to CB and expect positive results,when she failed to so in the villege of mpika?Just like he brought the out of touch Kachingwe to be national secretary.

  28. gentlemen as we debate lets remember that GOD loves us those online please download and read this Documents from google titled ANGELICA ZAMBRANO very exciting.GOD BLESS THOSE THAT WILL READ

  29. Icinyo ngachauma, ubongo buloma. Ba Mutati mubikekenimo amenshi Dora. Ala ichinyo nachuma. Kuletonafye ululenda. Nimwe twa truster ba mutati mubikeni amenshi Dora. kabili acilamo ukunwa sana kwati…………………………………..

  30. The MMD should use a popularist to speak for them and not someone that is so much disrespected by the public like DORA.

  31. Nitrogen Chemicals of Zambia has just signed a K20 Billion Kwacha deal with Nyiombo Investments to produce 20 thousand metric tones of D-Compound fertiliser. The RB administration has created such an enabling environment that even old parastatals seem to be reaping the benefits of this economic growth engine.

    Ms. Siliya is very right to warn the people about the opposition (mainly PF). PF has no development agenda for this nation. I have asked PF cadres to explain Mr. Sata’s 90 day economic policy, no one has been able to explain it.

    If the people want to continue with the development Zambia is experiencing, they should not vote for PF because PF will ruin this economy. PF has no development agenda for the nation.

  32. Mmembe is not in a position to give advice in his editorial comments to any media organisation, because his paper is full of misrepresentations and falsehoods. A paper that fakes interviews, invents interaction with its subjects and inserts verbatim quotes that were never said in the exchanges cannot be said to credible. The disregard for journalistic ethics by Mmembe has taken his paper from the gutter to sewer pipes.

  33. @ 41 Mr. Capitalist – 3 E’s steering economic growth
    even if this 90 day economic roadmap as it were was to overshot, i dont think it will take 20 yrs to realise as it seems to be taking MMD. 20 yrs and we have more than 80% unemplyment considering Zambias natural reasources, That record can not be broken, even by a deplited PF.

  34. when this useless chitundilo cha a bwezani opens it’s mouth Zambians everywhere know for sure that her remarks are going to cost them.

  35. Good morning

    Very good point from #2 The only living Jay. What’s the purpose of holding elections after all if not change of government? Dora’s “advice” sounds as if she is upset with anyone or anything that does not revolve around MMD. The people hired MMD because at one time they agreed that it was time for change and the same people can fire MMD once they agree on change. Don’t push them, madam – just give them the election timetable and they will show you through the ballot box whether you can come back to work for them after elections or not. That’s how it goes.

  36. How come she is not addressing the masses, BUT POOR CIVIL SERVANTS WHO ARE FEARFUL OF LOSING THEIR JOBS IF THEY DON’T ATTEND THE MINISTERS MEETING!!
    FEAR NOT CIVIL SERVANTS!! Ni DONCHI KUBEBA, attend all meetings, even CLAP VERY HARD, & even when they shout “THE HOUR”, reply loudly, “HAS COME”, then in a hushed tone, finish off by whispering,” TO PACK YOUR BAGS!!!!”

  37. #34 I agree with you 100%. Let’s use clean language. We must show our politicians that we are more civilized than they are if at all they are. Let’s make the blog a forum for educating each other. Let’s show the politicians that we have it upstairs and we have the data about them and about the economic situation in Zambia that we can accurately present. By the way, democratic elections are not held for the sole purpose of changing government. Elections are a constitutional provision for mandating leadership – fresh mandate or renewal! Siliya is devious she knows that the use of government resources for party purposes is culpable, hence her targeting the poor civil servants.

  38. KA CHIKAMBA KA GK,BUSHYE ULANYA UTU CHILICHILI,WHY IMILOMO LIKE THAT,SO U ENJOY IT AD U ARE THE ONE WHO WANT TO ABOLISH IT. JST KIP ON DRINKING KA BILI NI TU MMD DRINKS.

  39. Lets change the language guys on this blog as we need change also.insults wont take us anywhere i know it hurts us so much & we are angry about this mmd chaps but not to that extent of using deep language guys please.atleast dont kube that words for a while.

  40. Lets change the language guys on this blog as we need change also.insults wont take us anywhere i know it hurts us so much & we are angry about this mmd chaps but not to that extent of using deep language guys please.atleast dont kubeba that words for a while.

  41. ok guys twaufwa,ni dot kubeba.insults out,lets jst vote wisely.nomba dora na chilamo sana.she is provoking us,through abusive language she is using.

  42. Dora is right, RB has scored a lot in terms of development. True True!!!! Only if RB can just reinstate the Anti Corruption Bill that was removed can this greater development be fully accomplished!! RB please you are a hard politician and a person who build bridges among people as you did to Kaunda and the late Chiluba, in your next term (after elections) just extend your hard working in the fight against corruption, and majority of Zambians will love you!!!!

  43. Sorry i meant, “RB please you are a hard WORKING politician and a person who build bridges among people as you did to Kaunda and the late Chiluba, in your next term (after elections) just extend your hard working in the fight against corruption, and majority of Zambians will love you!!!!”

  44. hahahahaha what change now all those who will be defecting to PF from MMD would want to be ministers then what change

  45. Iwe chi Dora do you visit our compounds for you to claim that “leadership of President Banda has reduced poverty among Zambians,” I.D.I.O.T. In fact poverty has worsened. How do you pay someone a minimum wage of K400,000? Budget for a family of three you B.I.T.C.H.

  46. Iwe Dora bushe kwena walikwata insoni we mwanakashi iwe? I think RP CAPITAL yalimilisha bwino na ba boss. You call yourself a degree holder and yet your reasoning is that of a grade four. At no point has MC has advocated for gay rights. He said there are laws in our constitution that deals with homosexuality. He didn’t say he supports homosexuality. You are the people that were saying that MC is not educated but how come with all your degrees you can fail to understand simple English like this. Folotiya ali kwi maybe thats why he divorced you. You like double crossing men. This time around its the father and the son. Ule umfwako insoni ci mayo iwe.

  47. Zambians let us climb down from HIGH Horses and start talking serious business. We are seeing the MMD busy abusing state resources and state media. They have dispatched their “Non Perfroming bloated bellied Ministers” to provinces to campaign. we the zambians should take to the street to protest against this sad state of affairs. We Zambians viewed as fools by MMD. It took a monkey, an animal to urinate on RB toshow disgust at him cause us humans seem to be tolerating him. maybe we need hynas or baboons to take over this country. No. 18 G. K. The Patriot spot on with your comment.

  48. Another castle, another foolish speech, it u and ur boss Bwezani who have no heart for Zambians busy abusing state resources. I wonder how many bottles of castle and men can make this woman sober. Awe uyu mayo lishilu ni soko cannot see reality in front of her.

  49. MMD: 1990 – 2011 (26 years four Presidents)
    Arthur Wina (one year as President)
    Frederick J.T. Chiluba (11 years)
    Levy P. Mwanawasa ( 6 years),
    Rupiah Banda (will clock 8 years in 2016)
    PF: 2001 – 2016 (15 years)
    Michael C. Sata (will clock 15 years in 2016)
    UPND: 1998 – 2016 (18 years)
    Anderson K. Mazoka (8 years)
    Hichilema Hakainde (will clock 10 years in 2016)
    The question is which party is more democratic, diverse and dynamic?

  50. PF Calibre
    Sata, resigned from MMD after losing the presidential candidacy to Mwanawasa. (Does not believe in democracy). Still believes in Kambilombilo and kanakantapa projects.
    Guy Scot, fired minister of agriculture for paying himself with government funds after outbreak of swine flu. He didn’t know where to sell his pigs had to use government money to pay himself.
    Mbita Chitala, fired diplomat for indiscipline.
    GBM, wife barterer
    Willie Nsanda the hooligan that stormed a radio station in Kitwe
    Max Mushili, the person that defrauded Indeni/Tazama
    Sylvia Masebo, husband grabber and does not believe in democracy
    Given Lubinda and Wynter Kabimba, people who want to mortgage the country.
    George Mpombo, lol.
    Mike Mulongoti, lolest.

  51. There goes the drunk again. Oh no, save us LORD. Her min skirt may reach her skirt soon as she promoted homosexuality! Shame

    Copperbelt—MMD-30%, PF-45%, UPND-20%,others -5%
    Lusaka MMD-30%, PF-35%, UPND-30%,others -5%

    Southern MMD-35%, PF-15%, UPND-50%
    N/Western MMD-55%, PF-10%, UPND-35%
    i rest my case

    • Copperbelt—MMD-30%, PF-50%, UPND-20%,
      Lusaka MMD-30%, PF-50%, UPND-15%,others -5%
      Luapula MMD-55%, PF-35%, UPND-10%,others -5%
      Central MMD-40%, PF-30%, UPND-30%
      Norhern MMD-30%, PF-60%; UPND-10%
      Eastern MMD-55%, PF-30%, UPND-15%

      N/Western MMD-55%, PF-10%, UPND-35%
      i rest my case

  53. No. 73 – Continue dreaming. MMD has been cooking up figures and easily so in the rural areas. The PF together with the catholic chruch will put in at least 4 monitors per poling station and will conduct PVT. My take is Sata will win by around 70%, Just watch this space.

  54. ##74,u have mentioned the catholic church to be monitors of the PF,thats interesting to note.i dont know when the church left the pulpit and started monitoring elections,especially for the PF,it explains the calibre of our clergy in some churches and the language they use, the kaponyas are better.i expect you also to criticise my analysis,but you should also give yours to see how you see things in our country.mine might not be exact but its almost there,watch this space too
