I will not shield any corrupt person – HH

UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema

United Party for National Development UPND president Hakainde Hichilema has said that his party will not shield any corrupt person. In reference to the insinuations that he has vowed to defend former president Rupiah Banda from prosecution, Mr Hichilema says it is impossible for his party to defend corrupt people.

He said that it is a known fact that the UPND has never supported any corrupt activities as can be witnessed from its pronouncements. Mr. Hichilema said that corruption was a cancer that should be fought vigorously adding that the fight against graft should be comprehensive, non-selective and professionally done. He said that the UPND will not agree to be used to settle scores as this amounts to vindictiveness and abuse.

And Mr. Hichilema has said that Republican president Michael Sata’s speech dashed people’s hopes. He said that the UPND is disappointed that president Sata and the new PF government presented its vision statement that did not address some critical concerns of the Zambian people.

Mr. Hichilema has also noted with concern that the president has created new ministries and abolished some without taking the matter to parliament. He said that the president abolished the position of secretary to the treasury illegally without approval of parliament.

But yesterday parliament approved the abolition and creation of new ministries and government department.

  1. state the specific thing the president left out which has dashed your hope HH donnot generalize….what are poeple in your views UPND or you and your family coz am happy with the president so far

  2. Well it appears everyone is making U- Turns, as for HH, he is disgruntled and must take a vacation off from the election defeat stress and humiliation, otherwise he is sounding like a baby who ordered milk but now wants porridge!

    • My friend Luciferous this HH chap thinks he has power to shield anybody as if he is president,why cant he wait till he becomes president, if he will ever be president.

    • Luciferous this HH chap thinks he is president and can shield anybody, let him wait for his time ,if it will ever come before he can start barking about shielding people

  3. @HH No2, can you learn to be diplomatic and issue based in your writing and not just writing for the sake of it. You should learn to write things with value and purpose, things from which other people can learn something and not issuing statements based on hatred and tribalism. You should learn to value other people just in the same way you would like to be valued by other people and that is the only way you’ ll make your life richer and valuable. Don’ t insult people whom you don’ t know because the curse of God shall follow you wherever you go.

    • bnieutbtoza699 on June 5, 2010 @patchspiritkwolflion i noticed that myself and it’s weird how a computer Text to speech audio program/site could make it sound like that.

  4. Sithembile Mkwananzi!

    I am with you on that issue. Good observation. Lets just be objective about issues and not be tribal. Hopefully we can have a nation with less people like this No.2 HH. Dont you people have inter-marriages in your families? Sick bastards! 

  5. HH be a man and not a baby. People of Zambia and the donor communicate have appreciated the speech of H.E MCS buy u are saying it dashed the hope of Zambians…which Zambians? your self and household including the UPND? Really now I know that you are so petty, childish and suffering from election-loss shock and depression. Please take it easy man..Sata is to rule for the next solid 5 years.

  6. It is surprising that HH has NEVER and mean NEVER said anything positive to the current government as if they never at one time shared a platform with Sata. So, that friendship was just pretense. I at times hate Politics!!!
    HH, seriously speaking you have contributed alot to the looming tension between Bembas and Tongas.Sata has been in opposition for many years and we never had this tension. This was not the case during Mazoka UPND. Sata was still in opposition that time. 

    • 01228912345 on January 31, 2011 @ColorfulMusiicNotes use the front panel of the reiecver, or press power then up if its still not working, pull the smart card half way out

  7. If you say u will not shield any corrupt person, then why do you want to form a pact with MMD. Who in MMD will allow your MPS to vote in favour of removing immunity for RB or prosecuting Kunda and Dora? be objective HH please. We are talking about politics here and not business. 

  8. This HH thinks he is the only educated Zambian, you can even see the hate for Bembas on his face. He can go to hell and kiss the devil’s arse, who cares. He has brought so much tension between Bembas and Tongas.

  9. @pepecho suffering, whom are you trying to deceive ? Are you not the same people who used to insult the late Anderson Mazoka and called him a thief even when you had no proof ? The truth of the matter is that whenever someone who is not a Bemba forms a political party, it’ ll be called a tribal party except when a party is formed by a Bemba that is when it’ ll be called a party for every Zambia. Do you think we are too blind to see the truth which is on the ground and to be frank enough with you if this country is going to divided now or in the near future, that division is going to be caused by you the Bembas because you have a wrong mentallity that other tribes are inferior to your tribe. So be honesty about yourselves and don’ t try to hide your true colours because we know you.

  10. THATS WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU DO THINGS IN A 90 DAYS RASH-DUSH ORGASMIC MANNER. HH is RIGHT SATA IN LESS 30 DAYS HAS COMMITTED ALOT OF CONSTITUTIONAL BLEACHES TO WHICH HE MUST BE CHALLENGED OR GUIDED AND WHEN HH CONDEMNS THIS PF ORGASMIC WAY OF DOING THINGS, HE IS JUST TRYING TO DO  HIS BEST SO THAT THE GUY IN STATE HOUSE IS NOT IMPEACHED OR GROUNDS OF HAVING RAPED OR ABROGATING OUR CONSTITUTION . WHAT ANNOYS ME IS WHY PF ARE SO JITTERY WHEN SOMEONE CHALLENGES THEIR ACTIONS, ANY WAY MORE DRUMMER COMING  

  11. HH is a symbol of hate in the country, he is devastatingly disgruntled and he languishing in self denial. HH is not a progressive opposition leader and he does not really have a set of ideals. Because a party that affiliates itself with everyone has got no direction. HH’s qualities have been taken over by Elias Chipimo. Chipimo is the new ‘educated opposition’ and thus far, he has a plan. There is no need to oppose in the honeymoon period, oppose when key election promises are defied!

    • shawn5042 on May 25, 2011 These are made like the old water pmunipg turbines as far as the blades are conserned.There is a reason why these type of blades are no longer used to generate power.Its a good idea but i see there isnt a power curb on the videos i watched so far.Just percentages you will save in what they call low winds.Id like to see a full power curb.I even seen one up close at a local country store they are sel;ling but again no real specs.they say it produces power in 2mph winds what 2 watts?Interested but

    • bsrkloaiy15 on July 19, 2011 hey bro i have a problem with my remote every time that i push bottom on my remote the light from aux change and it doens work hoiw can i fix this ?

  12. @Luciferous, who doesn’ t know that you support Chipimo bacause he’ s your fellow Bemba ? To hell with your tribal tendencies after all Southern Province is highly developed than your primitive village.

  13. Headless chicken at it again. Simple and plain statements are not valued at all. When you say he left out this and that, you must be able to elaborate fully what you think was important and left out. We really do not need more leap services from HH. He simply needs to take a break from all the shock surrounding him, he sounds tired and not sure exactly what he needs to stand for. Rest is very important after a humiliation defeat from all avenues!

  14. Go Go HH. Tell them Tongas are made of steel and will not bend on national issues just because some Bemba chaps feel threatened by quality leadership.You are trully Zambian and deserve to be heard on issues of national importance.Dont allow these Bemba thugs to mismanage our country’s affairs.The whole TONGA TRIBE is behind you.Let them support their Ka Chipimo who we hear is a HOMO.Bembas have no manners and no wonder the majority of them are thieves and are not liked by other tribes.

    • SANTA MARIA, YOU SOUND SO TRIBALISTIC. IF YOU ARE TONGA, LISTEN TO THIS . I AM A BEMBA MARRIED TO A GOOD TONGA LADY AND I HAVE 5 CHILDREN WITH HER.WHAT TRIBE ARE THESE 5? LET US UNITE AS ZAMBIANS……………….!

    • mibiygaal100 on September 25, 2011 did u pay the tax for those each of ur suave products ??????????????could u tell me what suave product these are? whether hair spray or shampoo or body wash???did u buy theses all 3 suave products in a single target shop itself while checkout???didnt they say anything? ?? because 2 free products per person know!! but u bought 3 suave products .how?

  15. What HH means here is that the speech did not address the issue of mining taxation which has a direct impact on the ‘more money in the individual pockets’. In their usual tribal manner they are now trying to sell Chipimo even when it is clear that HH, Milupi or Magande are far much better presidential candidates just because the latter three do not come from some province. You guys, do you thing the rest of the Zambian tribes are so dull as to fail to see through your divisive scheemes? You should understand that most of us voted for Sata just for the sake of change but deep down our hearts we support HH. We just couldn’t stand another 5 years of RB’s misrule. Come 2016 tables will change. I don’t know what HH has done to you *****s for you to keep talking about him.

    • Be serious you never supported Sata, You are saying so bcoz he won your underfive lost and he will continue losing. As for UPND 2016 will be its fifth time to lose if they continue with HH the underfive.

  16. I have a dream that my… little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin (or indeed tribe of their tongue) but by the content of their character.

  17. The tribal tag will be difficult to erase because of how he ascended to the leadership of UPND. The Post clearly documented what happened at convention, but HH decided not to condemn those that preached tribal hatred. This explains why the likes of Hon Sichinga, Dr Mulwila, the entire provincial team from Western Province, etc have all moved to PF.

  18. HH, please take a rest. Otherwise you’ll end up like Goerge Kunda, visionless and untrustworthiness. Think thoroughly before you utter a word sir! You are embarancing yourself and your supporters. Be wise and consider others as well. You are too selfish, man.

  19. I think I understand HH’s approach – keep the fire burning – let your voice be heard! I think he needs to continue speaking – but he needs to organise his ideas well. The current statements is making are actually antagonising him with the people. He needs to be systematic – to learn how to undermine PF. You see, people believe that the systems that MMD put in power are corrupt, so what SATA is doing using his presidential powers has a lot of support at the moment even from Parliament. The way to go is therefore to be analytical rather than reactive. For instance HH would have made a cost benefit analysis of reducing the size of ministries verses the actual expenditure those ministries will incur. Have we really saved the money? That kind of thinking you know!!

  20. @17.. am very happy to read your comments.where you also being probed that you went silent or you were crying over the terible lose? a bitter mouth stinks like yours… come now to terms that sata is now presido

  21. hehehee…HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..suffocate the tribalists ..memeba and kabimba..with sata..tell them what you are made of man..!Lubinda can’t be a match to you..very immoral chaps..children all over atase..viva 2016..HH is the only opposition!!

  22. PF must know who their real caring friends are. Even in life if you announce to people around you that you intend to drive at 160km/hr on the Luanshya – Masangano rd & b4 you jump into the car HH comes over and informs you that its not safe try to slow down & consult so you can avoid an accident becoz that road has plenty of pot holes which must first be fixed b4 you do so. Is HH doing so out of hatred or love for you? Think seriously about this one… the Kwacha is loosing value very fast & Jobs on CB are being lost. Inflation is going to go above the single digit soon with the measures being announced. Education also is going back to the days of grade 7 drop-outs!!! …………..hope we won’t soon start having coupons.

    Has fertiliser & seed distribution started yet??? PF plse focus!

  23. i thot i heard scot asking kunda y mmd did not take the breaking of ministry of agric into two ministries agriculture and livestock to parliament for approval 2 years ago when they were in power.i also need to ask HH here y he ddnt take MMD to task over that issue then.its only an issue when its PF or elo mwakwata amano nomba after losing an election.

  24. Hahaha…HH will continue being number 3 always. We told you that HH will be No 3 you could not agree with us….where is HH with his insipid pride? …he is mourning now. Now you are talking about 2016 that HH will win, Mhhh guys, just face reality that HH is 100% finished politically coz he is proud for nothing. May if you change leadership from HH under five.

  25. UPND says MMD is corrupt. UPND to work with MMD. HH visits RB to see how they can work together. HH says he will defend RB. HH says he will not shield any corrupt person. Nomba finshi twalabulapo. HH try to stand on one thing or else you are making us believe that you’re indeed under 5

  26. Muslim brotherhood,
    I doubt the attributes you have credited to President HH. For me, he needs serious advisors who are frank and objective to tell him, he is doing more damage to his dwindling political fortues (check HH’s performance in past three election results) than good!!! If I were him, would congratulate the winner, sit down with Party, undertake complete postmoterm, map out strategy of engagement with new Government, which wins you hearts of the people and then forge on. He has lunged forward without analysis and he is not endearing himselof to the voters, they decided recently and are eager to give PF chance to deliver!!!!

  27. mwebantu help me on this one, did MMD change the money printing company from DE LA RUE to Gieseeke & Devrient? check this on the very new notes and old notes

  28. HH is a corrupt b.astard lest you all forget how much he stole from the privatization schemes. There are more educated Zambians. Chipimo is more articulate on issues than this tribalist I.diot

  29. Are you saying HH was voted by under fives? Intersting that the under five is right in this matter compared to Sata. True or false?

  30. VIVA CHECKS AND BALANCES, I FEEL FOR DR GUY SCOTT, HE WILL NEED TO DO A LOT OF EXPLAINING IN PARLIAMENT. COZ HIS BOSS’ MOUTH OPENS UNEXPECTEDLY.

  31. No president has ever changed ministerial positions before parliamentaly approval, and since the secretary to the cabinet post was an act made by parliament, then why did Sata announce to abolish it alone as an individual without parliamentaly approval. Creating a new province needs the approval of parliament and even moving provincial capital but Sata did it alone, is that not dictatorship at it’s best. All what HH pointed out is correct, only those who do not think independently can condemn him for saying the truth. Even in a house, just because you are a father and head of the house, you do not change things without consulting your wife or your family. Grow up guys, what Sata is doing is not good and the only person as at now who has guts to tell him the truth is HH.

    • sseazysalelman on November 1, 2007 I havent been able to Keep all wheel drive acadia’s on my lot, even with the $50K Canadian price tag, or higher. since they havve come out my dealership has sold app. 45-50 of the bastards. may not seem like much but we only got our first one in late may.

  32. PF stop blaming HH just deliver, fighting corruption and delivering development can be done simultaniously, just accept that you have failed on your promises.

  33. HH is the only one with balls to stand up to Sata’s dictatorship at the moment. The rest including the post have been cowed into their own shells. Keep it up young man, all these morons who are insulting you will very soon realise how foolish they have been when their serpentine fails to deliver on the promises he made prior to elections. Already some miners have been fired; even if some are likely to be recalled the damege will have been done. And pls pf cadres don’t take lightly the demonstration your fellow cadres did yesterday against their own party!

  34. @34, yes they did and they never informed the public. one of the reasons why BOZ governor was fired coz the contract with G&D was done at state house..

    • She11y on August 9, 2011 @CherylKimberleylover Yeah I was just thnkniig about that the other day! That would’ve been the most ridicilous luxury SUV ever!

  35. Ba HH but the one you want to defend is corrupt to the bone, zambians must be accountable to what they do, zambia is not for the few rich people to plunder the wealth of our country, let every leader be accountable it is not being vindictive

  36. Can HH tell us what Sata left that dashed the people’s hope, may be he was expecting PF to offer him a vice presidency. The man would have been the vp but short sightedness, pride and arrogancy prevented the man. Its a pity, never in the history of Zambia had we ever had such a myopic , arrogant and self styled politician in the name of HH. The man is a danger to the country bcoz of his regionalism politics. He has tried so hard to paint all Bembas black and he accuses them of all sorts of things. Can some one term this Mpongo (Mbuzi) before he destroys Sp. Look at is it not amzing that most prominent non Tongas have left UPND. Sakwiba, Sichinga, Chisanga and recently ten leader from wp have ditched him. Let the man cry but one thing is certain he will never rule this nation.

    • wodenrboyjohnny on March 7, 2008 Yeah, we knew it was messed up before we even opened it oh well. They still sold tickets to the, apparently paid for back in 1957, event! $20 a pop to watch a rusted pile of crap be raised from a hole that caused traffic delays and required lots of construction to fix.Yay

  37. HH whats you problem, give PF time, the 90 days is not over. After 90 days we shall have Zambia and Barotseland, more money in the pockets and all the Kaponyas will be at ZNS. Just shut up HH and let Mr. Sata abuse the contitution in peace. Leave Sata alone as he employs his relatives and fellow tribesmen. He is a man of action and has fired professionals at ZESCO. HH leave Sata alone its okay if he illegally abolishes the ST position and the vice president says the opposite. Sata is a man of action dont say anything if he changes the map (provinces) of Zambia without consulting. HH keep quite when we the PF are doing wrong things because you are bitter. HH you are a tribalist even though you visited almost every part of northern province you are a tribalist. HH you have K40b and bitter

    • Why do people fail to understand the perception that HH is tribal. 1. The way he ascended to UPND prez. 2. The people surrounding him (hounded out all the Bob Sichingas, Chisanga, Sikota etc and remained with the Mweetwas and Hamududus only) 3. Last three elections show he does not seem to have national appeal but Southern porovince only 4. Some of the utterances he’s made like “once you give the Bembas power ninshi kwasila they will not give it back…” No other party has had all these…Milupi, Nawakwi, Rupiah, Mazoka, Chipimo…not even Siulapwa. Hey where is Chanda Chimbwi?

  38. This fool is digging his own grave, instead of making trying to steal seats from MMD strongholds by showing he’s not a Tribal party all he does is preach hate!!
    Elections are over you foolish chap, stop campaigning!! 

  39. @#49 Just keep quiet, go home & eat finkubala we mwana wa mbwa. Just your language defines the political poverty you possess in your ka small brain. You ran away from your primitive village came to settle in town wherever you may be nokushita ka laptop and you think you are rich. Stop writing nonsense and learn to speak wisdom which can benefit the hearers. Do you think you can compare Southern Province with primitive/ ancient village where you come fropm we mwana wa mbwa.

    • srehtyheawtsmakaup1 on November 7, 2011 to be honest i have never been asked this question but for you i’ll answer, well my favourite food has got to be chineese noodles and the soup just the best

  40. Why hate on Sata? Hate on the people that voted him in…the Zambians that celebrated for days afterwards. Also, hate on MMD for pushing the Zambian people to a psychologically dangerous edge. I have yet to figure out hh’s part in all this.

  41. Lets face it..HH and UNdp have no capacity to protect anyone…HH failed to even have his friend elected as speaker.,…from here it will down-hill for HH.even MMD is now allegic to HH..eish… Sory if you’re hardcore HH fan or senseless tonga-bull..but like they Love is blind…

  42. Money can make people stop thinking. Suppose Choma is developed, is he going to campaign against? It sims HH is supperceded by the approval of parliament. He is still stand and or sleeping in the curve of the past. Let him suggest now how best Choma and Muchinga can be developed. We can’t just be paying attention to one person.

  43. And Mr. Hichilema has said that Republican president Michael Sata’s speech dashed people’s hopes. He said that the UPND is disappointed that president Sata and the new PF government presented its vision statement that did not address some critical concerns of the Zambian people.

    WHAT CRITICAL CONCERNS. CAN YOU PLEASE ADDRESS US

  44. Dont worry about this good for nothing HH, he is finished already. He talks just because he has a mouth. Always shifting goal posts. You will never rule this country with behavior. Sit down and reflect on how you came out distant third in the last election. 

  45. Good points, HH. Don’t worry about Fraud Mmembe and his useless attacks. His evil actions will catch up with him some day. YOu will outlast this despot from Bwinjimfumu. It is clear to all fair-minded Zambians that Fraud Mmembe is jealous of your success and has a pathological hatred for you. Keep on criticising. SHAME ON FRAUD MMEMBE!!!!

  46. Does HH seriously think the Zambian people will ever take him serious, he is finished and should just accept that fact. He has no direction what so ever, right now the man is thinks he can hi-jack mmd and be the main opposition leader, he could have been better served as a mp to make his points in the house than make useless statements to the press to be noticed as the saying goes an empty vessel makes the most noise. HH is the fraud PF is going to govern for the next 3 terms. what is HH going to do after a fourth defeat ? Does he want the record for the real LOSER. Even his hardcore Tonga followers will need to give it up now

    • DarkkiraraGT on September 16, 2010 I’m hnivag the same problem? as semoo201 but nothig seems to work even when its on dual mode. I also wanted to ask does the SAT button have to be red like in 1:02 because mine shows up green instead?

    • lava172 on September 19, 2011 @littlewolf789 kids find neoteps FUN.its FUN to use your imagination and pretend that stuff is real

    • mraypslraer on November 19, 2010 UM what is you have 2 controls and the both tvs show the same channel like each control takes control of both tvs how do you make the second control only work on one tv?

  47. I really do not understand why everyone has believed POST campaign to smear HH as tribal which is a lie. Someone gave the reason why HH is hated by POST and if you people do not know it is all about shares in the POST that Mmembe tried to buy off Madame Mazoka but HH being the business advisor discouraged her from selling, in the end he schemed to marry the daughter of late Mazoka but she discovered that he was a double dealer so she left. Leave HH alone PF is a dictaorial government worse than Idi Amin, now you are all seeing what KK and Chiluba were telling Zambians even the enlightened Zambians are just following a boat that they know in deep seas will one day sink. Loleleni

  48. # 58, Yes we zambians take him very serious. Its PF and its tissue paper POST that demeans such an intelligent and successful young zambian. This man is supposed to be a role model for any aspiring young zambian, telling themselves its possible to be successful without politics. Not beene Sata, government employee since independence.

    • rickiZEbabe on August 30, 2011 i like how i am quiet psisotive about myself. i don’t go around saying i’m fat’ i’m ugly’ yes i’m not the prettiest girl and i know what i would like to change about myself, but i still think i am quiet pretty xx

    • Nytherr on February 19, 2011 Cadillac Escalade beats Lincoln Navigator with her dgisen, Lincoln Navigator beats Cadillac Escalade with her features.

  49. Post has been right on a number of issues, RP, Zamtel, Sata etc etc. I believe there s no smoke without fire. There is something about HH, the chap cant even smile. This campaign period he danced at rallies, did side kicks at rallies to show how young he is compared to RB and sata. HH wasted energy!!!! He he he he he. Age is not what wins elections but a heart for the people, HH,learn to relate to the ordinary people of chibolya, misisi etc not where you perch your self up there “I know how to create jobs” continue creating them…..
