The Southern African Centre for the Constructive Resolution of Disputes (SACCORD) says the people condemning Foundation for Democratic Process (FODEP) President Dr. Alex Ng’oma on reports that he allegedly attempted to steal a ballot paper in South Africa should wait for him to come and give an explanation on the matter.
SACCORD executive director Lee Habasonda has told QFM news that it is not fair for people to come up conclusions before hearing from the person being implicated.
Mr. Habasonda observes that it will only be fair for people to conclude after Dr. Ng’oma comes back from the South Africa so that he can give his side of the story.
Over the weekend, Dr. Ng’oma was accused of stealing a presidential ballot paper in South Africa where he has gone as part of the team monitoring the printing of the ballot papers for the September 20th general elections.

Some of the stories LT have shocking grammar in them, like this one above
I know I am educated and I probably can’t do a better Job being a journalist here, but you are let yourselves bad seriously.
You see When I had my CIMA and ACCA and 2 Masters I was told spelling and grammar are paramount, If someone is to take one serious. But Hey! You are not alone, a lot of cockroaches on these blogs are even worse; sometimes I curse myself knowing I belong to them species as them
I love LT don’t get me wrong, just that I am happy to pick holes in your articles and belittling the bloggers who are not in my class. Thank you
This Man looks like Kalusha Bwalya
Thanks

Apa peka makolo ako sanabale mwe Kayobela katuntulu ka mushota
Lee has overstayed at his personal to holder NGO. A video of Mr Ngoma’s actions would be better than waiting to listen to his cover up when he comes back. All preogressive people would agree that Ngoma has to resign on moral grounds. how can he attempt to steal… and expect to stay on.
Send him back if you hv found hm with impurites.
Why should someone sane, be accused or let alone steal a ballot box?
Things like these are very hard for me to comprehend let alone accept
Why do people do things they should not be doing. Apprently this man should wait for him to give a comment on the above after he has been acused of stealing a ballot … Well first f all he is guilt, now I dont know much about law, but from my exquisite judgement, this man shoiuld have defended himself especially in the posistion he is.
Its no wonder we blacks and theft are mentioned in the same sentence especially men!!!
Thanks
The video cameras caught him stealing the ballot paper. I am sure he wanted to bring it to Zambia to use to print more ballot papers and produce them as rigging ballots evidence against the MMD
Iwe Lee, the man was caught on camera, what explanation would you want?
Point of correction. He did not attempt to steal. He is reported to have stolen and was caught
BORING STORIES…TIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lee Habasonde is playing double standards. When he heard a stray story last week that Zambia Police would engage Zimbabwean Police to assist during the polls, he rushed to condem RB’s administration without verifying the story with the Police. Today he wants the story of his friend(fellow UNZA lecturer) stealing a ballot verified and getting the story from the accused. This is how zambian NGOs have lost credibility. Well the best we need is a video footage since the accused was caught on CCTV. Surprisingly, he was exposed by the Vaik guy at UPG that TIZ is pleading with ACC to remove from the printing team in Durban. Am told that ballot was supposed to be used by Lubinda as evidence for his wild claims that ballots are already in Lusaka.
I miss Stand Up for Zambia. By now we would have watched the clip of Ngoma doing a quick one with the ballot paper
Kekekeeke
I don’t think that Dr Ngoma could have failed to follow simple but important instructions, I honestly think that he stole the ballot paper so that he could implicate the MMD and have a reason to nullify the election results. These guys have an agende mind you….they are a number of them including Meembe the hom……..
Lest hang him by his b*lls
Mushota you suffer from an inferiority complex.
That is why you think being in UK is an achievement.
Yet serious people like some us some rush to leave UK or USA the moment the business we are doing that side is over.
Grow up moron!!!
Lt, bring more stories and photos on the garbage  in Lusaka so that bloggers can educate our toothless Lusaka town council on how a true city is supposed to function.
Lusaka Times, please ban Mushota…please.Â
Mushota is bitter about everything and negative in every way. I suppose she is a product of adultery or just a bastard or she was sexually abused as a yourng girl, or rejected by her family or something in those lines. She is seriously deranged. Who can brag of being a whore in a foreign land?..she behaves has if she is the first to ever set foot abroad. Matuvi yamunthu, for your information mahule from Africa are plenty all over Europe. Stupid.
# 1,2,3 & 6 Mushota, by the way that is you being described by the name at # 16! LOLest! Mushota how can you be self appointed critic of LTs’ grammar when your own spelling and grammar is as inferior as your thinking itself! Gow up you moron!
The failure by Dr. Ngoma to obey simple instructions can rightly raise suspicion as he is a well educated man. Can we have access to the CCTV that caught Dr. Ngoma, so that we can independently analyse if he tried to conceal the ballot paper or he is just an extremely forgetful person? Forgetfulness is a normal process of againg, but since Dr. Ngoma is below 55 years, he should not be that forgetful!
Spellings in ACCA or masters don’t matter. I was doing my masters in Investment Analysi with Chinese and many Unis in England and Scotland depend on the Chinese to fill their courses many of whom hardly speaks and later on writes good english worth talking about but they are still able to complete their masters and even ACCA and CFA. anyone if determined can do CIMA, ACCA or CA. I speak from an informed position because I have done one of the two and because I qualified many years ago today I am a Fellow member.Â
How for heaven’s sake should we call other beings created in the image of God as cockroaches? Does it mean that we Zambian when we go to other country we lose our culture to the extent that we can say what I see on this platform? God save us!
Ba Saccord Lee, didn’t you see the good Doctor Ng’oma giving his side of the story on TV?
The UNIPist PF party, after Guy Scott showed you that PF is more UNIP than anybody else in both word and deed, and after you had condemned everything UNIP, what do you stand for now? Please answer me if you want my vote.
There is something that is being overlooked by many Zambians. Maybe, just maybe this attempt to steal Ballot Papers by Dr. Ngoma was part of a PF (& Sata) ploy to rig the elections. It is not only the ruling party that can rig the elections but PF under Sata can also do the same. Imagine if Dr. Ngoma succeeded in stealing that Ballot and then reproduced several thousands. Filled the ballots in favor of Sata and somehow found a way to introduce them into the rest of the ballot pool on election day (With people like Kabimba and Kambwili and GBM this is not out of the realm of possibility). Please, friends, LET US RETIRE SATA for good so we don’t have to deal with this Dangerous man any longer. Have you forgotten what he was like when he was Minister without portfolio. Vote Wisely, Vote H
People, People , People Good People Of GOD, please please never never comment on anything that mushota writes. This Person, software or Robots does it deliberately and is playing all of us as his/her/its game.
PLEASE DON’T FALL IN MUSHOTA’S TRAP
Please bloggers, ignore that thing called Mushota. That is the best way to make it become inactive.
ZAMBIANS. DO YOU KNOW THAT DR. NG’OMA IS AN INTELLIGENT, HONEST AND GOD FEARING MAN. THAT IS THE REASON WHY THE MMD WANTS TO EMBARASS HIM. BY THE WAY MHANGO, FORMER FODEP BOSS, A TEACHER WHO WANTS TO LIVE BEYOND HIS MEANS WANTS TO CONTROL FODEP AT ALL COSTS. MHANGO IS MMD. HE IS ALL OUT TO EMBARASS NGOMA. HE GAVE A CONTRACT TO CHIPENZI SUCH THAT NOW THIS ILLITERATE CHIPENZI IS SERVING AS FODEP EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR.
