PF claims its preliminary results give Sata 56%, Rupiah 32%

The opposition Patriotic Front (PF) has announced that party leader Michael Sata is leading the presidential race by 56% against MMD’s Rupiah Banda with 32%, according to its preliminary results.

And the PF has since challenged the Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) to immediately release the results stating that the Commission already has the results.

PF Secretary General Winter Kabimba says it is unfortunate that the ECZ has not kept the nation updated on the election results when it had given an assurance.

Mr. Kabimba has since appealed to cooperating partners to advise President Rupiah Banda and the MMD to respect the will of the people in the elections.

Speaking at a press briefing in Lusaka this afternoon, Mr. Kabimba also questioned why State house has been sealed by armed soldiers when Mr. Banda is on record urging parties taking part in the elections to accept the election results.

The Patriotic Front has since written to the European Union Election Observation Mission to intervene in the turn of events which he says may lead to civil strife if not brought under control.

And the Patriotic Front Secretary General has expressed sadness at the act of one presiding officer, Given Muleya for Bauleni South A, who allegedly forfeited results for newly elected PF Kabulonga ward councilor Mulenga Sata.

Mr. Kabimba has since questioned how genuine the loses suffered by its candidates in Chilanga and Chongwe constituencies are with such irregularities in place.

  1. This happens all the time. ECZ announces results were PF have a stronghold & towards the end of counting MMD pulls through.
    Lets not get too excited people. Stay calm!

  2. What is wrong with Kabimba? Is he normal? He is supposed to be a lawyer but alas – very dull. There are procedures to be followed.

  3. Kabimba, the wheel hass run dry and now wait for every vote to tally unless you believe Zambians are only those in the line of rail. Have all the 5.1million votes from 150 constituencies been posted by ECZ? Please share with us the link or you believe Zambians are only those on the lines of rail.

  4. BREAKING NEWS

    PF HACKED INTO ECZ WEBSITE AND POSTED FAKE PRESIDENTIAL RESULTS SOME YOU MAY HAVE BEEN SEEING.

    PLEASE AVOID BEEN RAISED BP NEEDLESSLY. ECZ IS YET TO POST BONAFIDE RESULTS.

  5. @vigilantcitizen I agree with you. We know that trick and it is so sick. Anyway we are still waiting and keeping our ears / eyes open.

  6. MMD NAMUWA. WE DON’T WANT ANOTHER IVORY COAST.RESPECT THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE. STATE HOUSE IS FOR SATA.LETS BE FAIR BA MMD. YOUR PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE HAD NEVER THOT OF BEING A PRESIDENT OF THIS COUNTRY, IT WAS BY SHEAR LUCK.

  7. BREAKING NEWS

    PF HACKED INTO ECZ WEBSITE AND POSTED FAKE PRESIDENTIAL RESULTS SOME OF YOU MAY HAVE BEEN SEEING.

    PLEASE AVOID RAISING YOUR BP NEEDLESSLY. ECZ IS YET TO POST BONAFIDE RESULTS. THE WINNER WILL COME FROM A SUMMATION OF ALL VOTES FROM 150 CONSTITUENCIES.

    • whether MMD liks it or not the results announced by by the so called PF are derictly from the ECZ. we are leading this elections and the MMD are trying by all means to manupilate them but they have failed. GREAT. this year is for PF. ILI LYENA TULEWINA

  8. IMWE GUYS, MMD HAS LOST. THE PATTERN IS VERY CLEAR. SATA HAS DONE IT THIS TIME. MY CANDIDATE IS HH BUT SATA HAS DONE IT. LET THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE PREVAIL. JUST LIKE RB WAS GIVEN 3 YEARS WHICH HE SQUANDERED.
    IF MMD TRIES TRICKS, I AM READY FOR ANYTHING BECAUSE ITS LIKE KILLING US.
    DON’T SAY YOU WERE NOT WARNED.
    DEMOCRACY IS A PAINFUL BUT NECESSARY REQUIREMENT.

  9. No. 7 last I checked Northern, Luapula, North Western, Central, Southern and Eastern Province are all rural areas, so which rural votes are you waiting for to swing the vote the MMD way? Can one province seriously swing the vote and make MMD win? Well nothing is impossible but let’s wait and see

    • There are only 17 constituencies remaining and those if you go by the figures the are less than 200,000 registered voters the margin between RB and King cobra is about 130,000 unless Sata polls Zero in those areas and RB get all the polls which is not practical. Sata has carried the day, I therefore declare Sata president of the Republic of Zambia like it or not.

  10. ECZ DOES NOT HAVE THE WILL TO HACK. THIS IS SIMPLE LOGIC..ONLY MMD OR OP CAN DO THAT. ALL THE PARTIES HAVE MADE THEIR TOTALS AND THEY KNOW THEIR RESULTS. ECZ CAN TAKE ITS SWEET TIME BUT FOR HOW LONG.
    THAT’S WHY HH IS QUIET.
    LET THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE PREVAIL.
    TRICKS THIS TIME WILL SET THE COUNTRY ABLAZE AND I AM MORE THAN WILLING TO RESIST ANY ATTEMPT TO TRICK THE ZAMBIAN PEOPLE THIS TIME AROUND.

  11. How do the above I’d!0ts sleep at night ( 1-8)? I mean is your reasoning obscured by your need to see the party you are aligned with? People are talking about the will of the people prevailing and you are driving right by the point. We do not have an independent organ enduring elections are free and fair and you buffoons know it.

    • its you mother , who is dull, and she probably passed the deffective genes to u .we are zambian dont insult us because of you sick reasoning.

  12. Please the Engineer, spare the man. I think every person has a right to question anything as long as it does not agree with his or her conscious. The writings are so clear on the wall of many irregularities with the results. Honest with elections a seemingly simple attribute is failing us. What a failed State. We deserve better.

  13. This is not true and Winter knows it in his heart that he is lying. If indeed the PF has 56% and MMD has 32%, where do you put the UPND which has really done well especially in Western Province.

  14. ECZ WEBSITE IS A CHEAP INSECURE WEBSITE AND ANY PRIMARY SCHOOL KID IN THE WEST WITH BASIC WEBSITE/NETWORKING SKILLS CAN HACK IN THAT….
    RESULTS ARE WELL KNOWN BY ALL INCLUDING ALL CANDIDATES SO ECZ CAN TAKE ITS SWEET TIME..BUT FOR HOW LONG AND FOR WHO’s BENEFIT. RBs?? its not worth it.
    BOTH RB and SATA are not worth dying for BUT I AM READY TO DEFEND THE LEGITIMACY AND DIGNITY OF THE ZAMBIAN PEOPLE….LET WISDOM PREVAIL

  15. mmmmmh awe mwalandwalika BP nobufi bwenu. can ECZ please announce the results and take us out of this misery of lies and counter lies. twanaka nobufi.  

  16. Good evening

    The rush of adrenaline and excitement within the PF camp is understandable but it would be wise for Mr. Kabimba to await the final results from the ECZ before making any public announcements to the press. Eventually, everyone shall know who will be Zambia’s next president and the way things look right now, a lot of people need to prepare themselves for the element of surprise.

    • No ba Chale, The ECZ need to be aware that they are being watched every second. Keeping quiet till the end is a recipe for disaster. Remember last year they just disappeared from the scene and went home leaving Sata looking for them.

  17. If RB and the MMD have lost, they must not try to rig the elections in broad day light. It’s unjustifiable and a recipe for Kenyan style atrocity

  18. MMD has scooped 76 out of the 150 Constituencies with 12 of the 14 Constituencies from Luapula Province scooped by the PF including 2 seats from the 3 in Serenje. Notable Ronny Shikapuno has kissed the dust so has Peter Daka, Bradford Machila and Mutati. Wanya bakolwe

  19. People are vigilant this time so NO rigging will be accepted and some people at ZNBC should expect losing their jobs when Sata forms government for misleading the nation for announcing false figures from eastern province against Sata contrary to official figures ECZ had announced.Sata lost by small margine in Eastern province to RB. 14,0000 against 11,0000.

  20. These things happen all the time.Hillary Clinton thought she was winning based on early polls but Obama pulled thru,the ex Massachusetts governor was winning at first but then came McCain,Raila Odinga was leading at first but in the end bwana Kibaki prevailed.Even the hare thought it was to win the race but the turtle pulled thru.

  21. BREAKING NEWS

    PF HACKED INTO ECZ WEBSITE AND POSTED FAKE PRESIDENTIAL RESULTS SOME OF YOU MAY HAVE BEEN SEEING.

    PLEASE AVOID RAISING YOUR BP NEEDLESSLY. ECZ IS YET TO POST BONAFIDE RESULTS. THE WINNER WILL COME FROM A SUMMATION OF ALL VOTES FROM 150 CONSTITUENCIES.

  22. I did not see this new headline,was still on the results one. How come here its PF giving out results? What happened to ECZ ? What’s going on ? Kabimba reading out results why only the final % what about the statistic of these % ? So can we prepare now o come home in 90 days? Yes yeeeee yeeeee yeee 

  23. as far as am concerned RB is still at state house and considering how people have been reacting its only fair that he is protected until such a time when he hands over power or is sworn in himself.
    Kabimba and PF need to be patient they know very well the type of system we have of simple MAJORITY so as long as the numbers can still add up for person running second you take it to the wire till mathematically the second person can not accumulate enough votes to win

  24. 133/150 – SATA 42%, BANDA 37%, HH 13%, 8% OTHERS………….If this is correct, then MMD are winning which is unfortunate for Mother Zambia as we needed changed. God bless Zambia.

  25. Mushota we are going back home babe, leave that old man in 90 days. Why are you so silent to day,meditating or what?

    RB come on are you not saying something,have we lost? Uuuuuuh I’m so scared I don’t understand the why the last results are taking long to come out.

  26. My boyfriend and I are having a meal in a chinese restaurant and wish all zambians the best in hallucinating about these results.

    I hate zambia but I am awake and hope the winner wins. Thanks

  27. Lets not fool ourselves with these results good or bad as they may seem.Fact is,just by going with the past,we will have alot of these results overturned by the courts for one reason or the other.Truth is a lot of by-elections are coming and some winners today will be losers then.

  28. My estranged father has texted me for no reason that PF will win. Not that I care about him, but just to let you zambians know. my Dad is foolishly excited like a baby, as it it will change his life.

    Anyway good riddance the MMD Thanks

  29. @ 32 um okay moving along………. can’t the pf wait till the results are compile and verified , + the ecz website was hacked recently showing pf with 56% …its been taken down now 

  30. Kabimba is a big mess and so is pf! We all know they have won lusaka,northern,copperbelt and luapula but dont have majority!upnd cant get majority also!mmd will or form a coalition.As for President its either Banda or Sata.MMD will handover power when they lose,i know that but i dont know if pf will accept defeat!Does kabimba know that the election is about state house and parliament?The man is dull very dull!The honourable thing to do is wait for all 147 constituences,not 150! Dont ask me why!!GOD BLESS ALL ZAMBIANS AND ZAMBIA.Kabimba is a big mess and so is pf! We all know they have won lusaka,northern,copperbelt and luapula but dont have majority!upnd cant get majority also!mmd will or form a coalition.As for President its either Banda or Sata.MMD will handover power when they lose,i kn

  31. MMD TWAWINA. pf we wanted u to get excited. boma ni boma. soon ba sata ni heart attack. soon we will be called a bunch of criminals. u have policed these elections so if we win noti fya nyo nyo rig ..uko kwina kwa nyoko sitaaaanyoko bonse ba pf.

  32. These election results are being sent from constituency centres so even if the results are hacked into there must be a record of these results at the constituency centres. I now understand why we some people become freedom fighters.

  33. The Dog Kabimba should be arrested for high treason.

    Facilitating the hacking of the ECZ website which would have led to unrest as he and his fellow Pathetic Fools would have tried to claim they had won.

  34. O k here we go… latest verified results by ECZ from 33 constituencies Sata 265,843 and RB 192,166. Game still very much on!

  35. Iwe Enka,  of course that is the reason there was blood shed in kenya bcoz kibaki rigged the elections. it was necessary 4 pipo to fight for a noble cause. and this tym zambians nid that courage, its too much. if RBwins ,seriously i support the kenya Style and then we can move a step forward 

  36. THE LEVEL OF U/STANDING BY BLOGGERS ON THIS SUBJECT IS APPAULING!
    PF HAVE DONE A PVT JUST LIKE UPND, MMD, NGOs, CARITAS, etc USING POLLING STATION AND POLLING CENTRE RESULTS DECLARED BY ECZ AGENTS.
    THE COLLERATION OF THESE RESULTS IS AVAILABLE LEGALLY AND CAN BE PUBLISHED WITHOUT FEAR OR FAVOUR.
    THE MMD STILL WANT TO BURY THEIR HEAD IN THE SAND HOPPING SATA’S WHIRLWIND WILL PASS-BY AND NOT knock THEM DOWN.
    ITS TIME TO BITE THE BULLET AND REGROUP FOR 2016.

  37. #50, You better tell them to hold on to their PVT. Certainly they should not hack a website and place it there illegally. Tell them to be patient, ECZ clearly said within 48 hrs and that time is not due yet.

  38. if rb wins,we are doing something that wil never forgate.we want change also.iam 4 the ECZ.THEY ARE the first culprits.so be ready we are coming in from copperbelt.iam nt hapy wit the delay.

  39. TONGA TRIBALISTS WHERE ARE YOU WITH YOUR 20HH CRAP, WE TOLD YOU UNDER5 AND HIS TONGA TRIBAL PEOPLES PARTY HAVE AND SHALL NEVER HAVE A CHANCE

  40. Ba MMD mwayamba nomba nokwikata kuli NWTWORK so that we get lost completly and then you still. come back to your senses. pabwatoooooooooooooooooooo!

  41. I hate change because it always come at a cost but this does not blind me from asking why we are still stuck at 22 costituencies when at 12:00hrs News ZNBC told us over 20Costituencies have been counted?

  42. #56 it is either you are illiterate or you suffer from mental disorder.I really advise you to see a Psychiatrist before your desease eats up all your brains

  43. Why is there stealing of PF volts again people of Zambia want change what is the problem with MMD we don’t want war in the name of God

  44. we have already seen the results through PVT and all the results have been posted on all polling stations. just go and check these results and confirm, stop dreaming about what percentage is in rural or urban area the fact is that PF has done better this time even in rural areas. you are behind 

  45. Bafana Boma ni Boma RB nachita campaign Silvia alelila ku chongwe, Mangani alelila kuChipata. ba PF mulibabufi. mwaletubeba anti Ba Mangani bakawina ku Chipata nomba balikwi? naapapene mwalalila ngayafuma amaresults yonse. Mwilaba ukuti ba Sata balilwala umutima balafwa ngamwalusa. mufwayefye indeke kubabutushisha ku south africa pantu BP no mutima fyalashupa

  46. If you analysed the figures released so far i have observed the following: In most const. where PF has won it is with a high number above 10,000 and MMD has 2,000 to 3,000. And where MMD has Won it is a small difference with PF. I do not see MMD catching up with PF. Check the 2008 Election results and compare with what has been announced so far, you notice that it is the same winning pattern but PF has increased the numbers by a big margin. Or may be it is a high voter turn out. Remember also that UPND is quite a force to reckon with in some areas such as Western Province where MMD has become unpopular due to issues that all Zambians Know(Barotse????).

    Above all all Political parties know their Presidential results by now apart from Lukulu in Western Province. What makes me say this is

  47. Above all all Political parties know their Presidential results by now apart from Lukulu in Western Province. What makes me say this is because if you had listened to Mrs Mambilima’s Last update after 12:00hrs today she said the following:
    As agreed all Political parties are signing for the results at the const. before they are transmitted to ECZ at Mulungushi.

    What do others say on my observation?

  48. Magnificent beat ! I would like to apprentice even as you amend your web site, how could i subscribe for a blog website? The account helped me a applicable deal. I have been a little bit familiar of this your broadcast offered bright transparent concept
