Suspected PF cadres stone MMD candidate’s husband in Nalolo constituency

Share

Suspected Patriotic Front (PF) cadres attacked Movement for Multi party Democracy (MMD) aspiring Nalolo constituency area member of parliament Catherine Akayombokwa’s husband Lloyd.

Police Spokesperson Ngangula Siamana was not reachable for comment by press time to comment on the matter but Mr. Akayombokwa confirmed.

He said he was traumatized and on his way to Makeni Police Post to report the ordeal.

ZANIS reports Mr Akayombokwa confirming the development in a telephone interview, this evening.

He said the suspected PF cadres started throwing stones at him using catapults as he approached
Bama road.

He explained that a number of motorists were stoned in the process by the unruly
youths believed to be PF supporters.

“ Despite pleading with the cadres they continued throwing stones at my vehicle as it was clad with MMD posters of
President Banda and my wife’s portrait, “ he said.

He added that that the alleged cadres blocked the road using stones.

Mr Akayombokwa has described the behavior of the suspected PF cadres as barbaric. He has since called on political parties to refrain from engaging in campaigns of violence.

Mr Akayombokwa stated that if violence continues the country may be plunged in flames hence the need to up hold the peace.

  1. A little taster of what the country would be like if the heart challenged devil got into power (God forbid)!

  2. I am sure those were these not PF cadres. By the way what is this chap doing in Lusaka instead if being camped in Western Province to campaign for his wife?

  3. Yaaa Ne!! every hooligan has now turned into a PF cardre!!?? every thief and thug that has occupied intercity ad KMB for the last 10 years is now a PF cadre, maybe if these thugs had jobs to go to they would not be stoning cars?? the unemployment rate created by MMD in the last 20 years is unbelievable, 70% of Zambian industries closed down in the first 5 years of MMD rule.

    • And Sata was obviously not part of the first 5 years rule of MMD te? And dont try and say ‘He wasnt president’ coz thats a bullshit argument.

  4. but all these articals are coming from bias sources ZANIS, NEWSPAPERS TIMES AND DAIRLY Lt what has gone wrong you not doing your research now you are reproducing of others

    • U must be new here my friend. Ask your friends first and find out wat ‘Lusaka Times’ is all about and their Mission Statement. First time on the internet then?

  5. The MMD apparently attacks its own people as well. Check this article: http://www.postzambia.com/post-read_article.php?articleId=22706

    Don’t be too quick to suspect others all the time! lol

  6. Its fine nabalebatoba…they are enjoying tax payers and KABOVAS are suffering. If they had something to do they cant. No employment for them. KABOVAS these chaps are making our city dirty, when you see them with posters HAMMER…

  7. when a kaponya dies or is stoned no one cares, but when these criminals living in the glass houses receive a few stones on top of their cars they scream louder. 

  8. The answer given by #7 and #8 shows why we should not vote for pf thugs. If they cant condemn violence now, what will they be like if Satana is president. Satana’s greatest supporter on this site Kalos2121 is on record here stating that he would happily hack another Zambian to death with a machete and has never apologised. These two guys dont see anything wrong with violent behaviour. PF and their supporters are a bunch of bitter, twisted and vengeful violent hooligans. DONT LET THEM ANYWHERE NEAR THE GOVERNMENT OF OUR BELOVED ZAMBIA!

    • sakala iwe ngolalya bwino no kwikala bwino te bonse waumfwa…These chaps are on the streets because of MMD…LET THEM STONE U…ITS CHAPS LIKE U WHO HAVE MADE STREET KIDS INCREASE…SO DANCE TO YOUR TUNE. Their only hope is PF…

  9. iwe kayombokwa, how do you know those were PF cadres? were they clad in PF attires for you to jump to conclusions? Is PF the only opposition party in Zambia?

  10. I thought pf was non-existent in Nalolo! Or, have pf brought in thugs from other towns as per their custom? Western only has UPND, and bit of MMD and ADD

  11. MMD cries so loud and enjoy pointing fingers at PF for every little mishap that happens to them.
    How many times has william banda and his Lusaka gang of thugs bitten PF members and threatened to gang rape Nawakwi and all the MMD leadership did was just smile with glee?
    Stop pointing accusing fingers at PF even when the suspects are disgruntled and disaffected MMD cadres
    PF does not condone violence

  12. WHAT MAKES HIM BELIEVE IT IS PF CADRES WHEN THERE OTHERS PARTIES CONTESTING THERE ALSO.IT HAS BECOME FASHIONABLE TO BLAME PF EVEN WHEN THEY HAVE NOT THERE.IS IT BECAUSE THEY ARE THE STRONGEST PARTY AROUND?

  13. Good point @ 16, when did PF begin to influence politics in WP? These should definitely be MMD on MMD, remember the Mongu fracas and the DPP’s directives? Is there an MMD would-have-been standing as an independent with his supportes masqrading as PF. It could even be UPND supporters – the Mufumbwe experience coming back.

  14. N°1. I just to ask you what you do understand by the word “Suspected” I guess you know the mening of that. What of the cadres where from other politica parties what will your view again. How many tutembe parties are in Zambia that F.OOL like you just because you don’t like PF to make such a nonsense comment. The people of Zambia they will decide in this years election and you.

  15. Good job boys keep it up ,but next time target the eyes . i said eyes please not wind screen.

    job well done you are heroes.

  16. It might have been William Banda’s Men. I also Suspect W.Banda, Please we want to know from which party. It could be MMD fighting themselves.

  17. Yela wena ndate mwanana, if you are going to be driving around in a car that is like a poster for Banda, you better start arming yourself with your sikumisa and kaliloze, otherwise kauke libangoki za nahe ye konji liku pwache ona lingandwe lahao leo in malegeni!

  18. Homes is Home, Mwana. You don’t know what you are missing. I don’t even dream of going abroad and work 3 jobs. No.  (Blue Blood says:Mon Aug 22 at 12:59 pmZambia must be a very boring country.)

  19. PF cadres here want to use state media as a scapegoat or to hoodwink us. Sorry guys the pictures of this incident were captured on ZNBC TV, pictures don’t lie. I saw the pictures last night with my own eyes. You want to hear more? Well well well, the reporter mentioned that the cadres had pangas, and I saw one PF cadre with a panga with my own eyes just before the cadre realised that he was on camera and sneaked into a minibus. My wife saw it too and was dead scared. But I think he can be easily identified by police from the pictures, as he and his colleagues’s faces were captured by the sharp camera man before they hid their faces.

  20. Cheap publicity, suspected PF cadres? come on people we need confirmation and some real journalism not this cheap rubbish told from a biased point of view.
