THE Patriotic Front (PF) on October 19 admonished United Party for National Development (UPND) president Hakainde Hichilema for his unrelenting schemes aimed at frustrating the PF and described him as a “selfish politician interested in championing personal gains”.
And the PF has urged MMD members not to allow former republican President Rupiah Banda to “auction” them to Mr Hichilema because he allegedly wants to save himself from the wrongs he committed against Zambians.
PF secretary general and spokesperson Wynter Kabimba said this at the party’s first press briefing after winning the September 20 general elections. “For Mr Hichilema service to the Zambian people only means one thing…he must be the president over all of us. This was his scheme in 2006 when he took over the UPND as president and in June 2009 when he invited PF into a pact with UPND.”
“His agenda is a personal one and our people should judge him for what he is…a selfish politician,” Mr Kabimba said. He said it is disappointing that Mr Hichilema and some UPND members have failed to understand the true meaning of President Sata’s “watershed speech” delivered in Parliament on October 14.
Mr Kabimba said Mr Hichilema has vowed to frustrate PF programmes within and outside Parliament.
He said this is Mr Hichilema’s second vow after the first one when he promised to work with MMD to ensure President Sata does not win the September 20 tripartite elections.
Mr Kabimba said Mr Hichilema is on record to have told Zambians during the defunct PF/UPND pact that he would never work with the MMD because Mr Banda and his ministers were allegedly corrupt.
He said today because Mr Banda has allegedly offered him the inheritance of the MMD “which he thinks will propel him to power in 2016,” the former head of State has become a saint to him.

Mr Kabimba said Zambians should not trust Mr Hichilema with powers of managing the affairs of the country. “In his typical bitterness and anger he went to MMD to try to prevent Michael Sata from winning the election. We thank God that Mr Hichilema’s evil intentions did not come to pass,” Mr Kabimba said.
He said President Sata won the election to Mr Hichilema’s utmost shock and disappointment from which he has failed to recover to date.
Mr Kabimba said it is not surprising Mr Hichilema has now moved to another scheme to block the PF from fighting corruption committed by the previous government.
He said the PF wants to know who gave instructions for the killings which occurred in Western Province, beneficiaries from oil imports arising from blatant breaches of tender procedures and people behind the auctioning of the gold which was in the custody of the Drug Enforcement Commission.
The PF wants to know the circumstances which led to the acquittal of former president Chiluba and his wife, Regina, the circumstances in which two Lexus vehicles costing K3.6 billion were bought and how the privitisation of Luanshya mine and other were undertaken and who determined the fees for the transactions.
Mr Kabimba said the PF wants to know if Mr Banda is a Zambian under the Constitution and eligible to stand as a presidential candidate in 2008 and if the MMD attempted to rig the September 20 polls.
He said if these matters do not worry Mr Hichilema about how Zambia was governed in the recent past then he is a wrong person to lead Zambia.
And Mr Kabimba has appealed to Government to consider compensating the families of people who lost their relatives and property during the disturbances and riots on the Copperbelt on September 21. He said these people should be compensated because they wanted to ensure the MMD did not again steal votes and frustrate the people’s choice for a new political leadership.
Wynter is am incompetent lawyer but let me focus on HH. Mr HH, you’re the biggest moron I’ve come across in my life! Late Levy offered you a pact proposal and you refused; RB did the same but you instead opted for PF. When your marriage of convenience failed, you opted to be a vote spoiler instead. Foo-lish chimpanzee, I now understand why you will never ever rule this country.
IWE CHI HH JUST RETIRE FROM POLITICKS AND GO BACK TO YOUR BUSINESS SELLING AND SLAUTERING THE COWS AT THE FARMS.
though HH and his UPND claim to be educated, politically they know nothing. HH so far have entered into pacts with almost all major political parties because he thinks the way he inherited UPND is the same way that can lead to republican office. UPND + FDD + UNIP (UDA) + = 0. After losing he dumped them. UPND + PF =0. Pf quickly noticed HH’s plan. He left pact before elections because Sata did not die. UPND + APC (after Ngondo’s death) =0. Took over party. UPND + MMD =? Because RB lost and is retiring. He thinks has the answer to MMD. Wait and see. if HH takes over MMD, some MMD and UPND mps will win but who will vote HH for presidency?
Ichipuba chipuba nangula cingakwata ipiya ishingafula nga sand.hh let other pipo lead upnd b4 it sink 2 da bottom of da ocean plz.u re no longer obama we used 2 cal
I have lost even the little respect i had for this “under 5”! Leave the Politics of governing the nation to those who have what it takes. I suggest you go back to some village in southern province and vye for position of village headman. am sure you can govern better in your good language. Please heed my advise young man!
Whether HH or not, we need a strong opposition, PF’s divide and rule tactics wont work. You think E/P is happy to be deputised to kaponyas? why so much hate for HH?
People don’t worry, Nevers Mumba is taking over MMD presidency and will work with HH to provide checks ans balances in parliament. Why do you want a one party state? PF should concentrate on delivering the promises they made to the masses and not saccumb to Diarrhea because of HH. If HH is an underfive, then why is the PF so worried about him? It seems HH is so powerful in the eyes of PF? Just do what is right and allow the opposition to do its work.
The source of HH envy and frustrations:
1. He has taken a lot of money from his business for political activities and yet he has continued losing the elections.
2. He thought PF would never win without him
3. He miscalculated on the pact when he pulled out and missed the chance of being the vice president.
4. He thinks Bembas have dominated the presidency because the man is a tribalist.
5. The Post stopped covering him thereby making him even more frustated.
6. The man he picked (Mr Kapita) to be the speaker lost.
7. He thinks people have made a mistake for not choosing him because he is “young and educated”
Wrong priorities Bwana Kabimba.If thats the case open up how Zambia has been governed from 1964 todate.If you dont we will in 2016.Pls focus on developmental issues and giving jobs to Zambians.One mine has just fired 1 000 Zambians.You have your job cut out. GOD BLESS ZAMBIA.
You are blind to the facts. Tolarating corruption is like drawing water in a basket (baskets have holes). The multiplier effects of your plans/policies is less than 1. Meaning only a few resource would reach its intended target. You have to resolve to fight corruption acts in the past, now for times to come. Currently the so called economic policies are there but implimentation without checks and balances is what is killing the country. Lets not be too protective to a few people at the expense of the suffering majority. People get arrested for stealing a cob of maize to eat what more those who steal billions just for luxury?
HH is the worst politician i have ever seen…how do you take everyone for a ride especially the people that belong to his so called TONGA WAJYATA NGOMBE PARTY…HH grow up and behave….you will never be president if you continue with all your nuisance.
Kabimba is DULL that is why he has an inferiority complex and hate towards HH. How can HH frustrate PF government?The truth is ——PF has realized they have no capability to deliver the many promises they made, especially to the youth. Isn`t it weird that this is Kabimba`s first press conference since they formed government and the guy is ranting about HH. Isn`t Kabimba supposed to be talking about the vision that PF has for all the 9 provinces and the strategies PF is going to initiate in all the 9 provinces to realize their vision? Why is PF so jittery when HH speaks? And yet they refer to him as under 5.
HH will never ever rule Zambia, his TONGA WAJYATA NGOMBE PARTY can always put him in plot 1 in Ngombe compound or but still plot 1 in choma.. the man and his tribal followers have no manners or class. Obama my black ass
Tongas and Bembas will never be in good boots.That we should always REMEMBER!
tongas and bembas on this site inly. Not all bembas and tongas in the streets. They coexist and intermarry.
Why?
HH shld have the interests of Zambia at heart, even if u are in opposition, wen the ruling party is doing well pls support them cos i dnt believe it can all be bad.
My advice to Kabimba——– PF`s enemy is not HH. Its the promises PF made to the people.
PF prescribed its own poison by making wild promises to the people, especially on the issue of job creation. When people realize that PF actually has no capability to create meaningful jobs, PF`s popularity will be pricked in a big time.

You pipo shud learn to have patience.Those advocating for early Job creation are Anti PF.If you shift into a new but dirty House, first you sweep it clean then put your furniture in order.I think ma jelus and you are just distroyers.
HH is dull bully, i wish him to retire coz he will never rule Zambia, he is a loser in all the elections ever participated by him, why? the problem with him is if he loses, tribalism is mentioned, and if a winner choses the people who supported his oppnent, then its tribalism. i hope papers should stop covering him completely in Zambia
surely mwebantu eh calibre yabantu iyi in the name of wynter,i mean everytime he talks he irritates me this man is js too dull,tho hh aswell is following suite too many blunders this chap shud hav made a pact with us stupid chap
Double tongue Winter Kabimba, on the other hand he is eating with MMD and on the other hand refusing HH to form an alliance. Stupid *****, we know your schemes, viva HH
As part of the proud Bantustunian nation in zambia, i am amazed to see how many Zambian who are online that seem not to use their GOD given faculties.Democracy is about choice and free choices to oppose a good idea or bad one.opposition in a natural phenomena the universe is by design like an interaction of opposite chemical and biological reactions:THE BANTUSTUN POST :THE ZAMBIAN DECEPTION
#15, walasa. My advice to Kabimba——– PF`s enemy is not HH. Its the promises PF made to the people.

Ati “HH the man”….when infact he is “HH the underfive spoilt brat”. HH will never ever, ever rule mother Zambia.
HH will never rule Zambia. In the history of politics, I have never seen such a self centred man. His ego means everything, and Zambians mean nothing to him. In my view, Hakaivotela Humwine (HH) = you will vote for your self. So you will never rule Zambia.
HH IS SO SILLY TOGATHER WITH HIS MPs WHO ARE SO DULL. GROW UP HH AND WAKE UP FROM YOUR CRAZY DREAM OF BEEN A PRESIDENT.
hh ni mumbwe alya ifyo baipaya kale,mazoka alefwafye alitole kelamo,thinking that sata alefya he joined pf thank God he kept sata,after ngondo died he grabed the small party and upon hearing that rb has retired he wants to get mmd.chi colour iwe stand on your own and don’t frustrate what the govt is doing.think how many top officials are leaving your tribal party mambala.
Winter Mabimbi is as useless as was Mulongoti in the MMD Government.Saiko Mata will do well to do away with this blatant politician whose statements manifests his empty mindedness.I know Kabimba has diarhoe of the mouth and should not be allowed to continue chairing the current commission of enquiry.He lacks direction.
PF is scared of HH. No bemba presidency in 2016. 2016 presindency has to go either western, north western or barotseland.
Chi ngoma na chi jomie tamwakwata amano, you are hating so much baiche this is politics the so called kaponyas are ruling you *****s just accept the situation coz whether u like it or not tuleteka. Dodoo do do nch kubeba bigge!!! inshimbi ninshmbi, interlectuals have failed us give a chance to kaponyaz also may be they can redeem us from the evils that have been perpetrated by the so called interlectuals coz bakaponya are closer to a common man languishing on the streets of Zambia and they are better able to understand the levels of poverty prevailing in the country just give PF chance ba mumbwe imwe these people are serious and they will deliver.
Kabimba sounds really scared of HH, so MMD should only be auctioned to PF not UPND?
PF can choose ministers from MMD but UPND should not asociate with MMD……chiwamila galu kuluma mbuzi….
#28..are u advocating for rotational system for presido… where we have president from diferent provinces…I say NO…We are following the NATURAL SELECTION process…Only the cleverest, strongest and most durable politician will take over from Sata..And HH does not fit this bill..he is too dull
Kamalasha! PF is not scared of HH! nobody takes HH seriously nowadays! HH should also just keep quite about issues he does not understand! By the way Mr HH, the quicker you realise that The Post are more politically powerful than you despite the number of your oxen, the better for you! Every politicians that has endevoured to fight The Post have had their political careers badly damaged in the process! Just give up the fight with The Post before you are completely finished! Stop listerning to your Tonga cow boys who are giving you wrong advice! The other thing is that you or any other person can never be president of this nation without the kaponya’s (Bemba’s) vote no mather how rich you are! Deal with these facts!
I dont see how HH is frustratin PF when he is not even an MP. The only thing Wyinter is good at is confrontation. If he is not attacking HH, he is in the courts suing, if not he is attacking MMD. PF chaps still have a campaign hangover. I am shocked by the blatant incompetence in the manner he (Kabimba) is handling the ERB commission. The chap has no clue waht he is looking for aand cant even adhere to a simple conflict of interest requirement.
HH is not PF’s enemy. PF’S enemy is their false 90 days promise. They’re already looking for escape goat and in this it’s HH frustrating govt policies! PF thinks Zambians are foolish eeeh! All you PF kabovas, we’re not going back to a one party state, we need the oposition, your hate HH is because you are jealous of him.
#13 Why do you say Tongas and Bembas will never be in good books? I know of a number of Tonga/Bemba marriages here in the UK. Also, I have a lot of friends who are Tongas.
Of course we know Tongas are tribal but to say they will NEVER be in good books is not the way to promote unity. Lt’s strive to build, not destroy the little unity we already have.
UPND is not the largest opposition party and neither are they likely to form govt soon. PF should not make them a factor. Why bother about HH and UPND. HH should do the honorable thing, resign.
bonse mukomenta fye ifya bupuba
ukutumpa fonse mwe balelemba i fikalata. those are our leaders regadless of the party where they come from. muli fipuba bonse
Sata Akota HH dont give okay. never mind cheap comments from silly people
90 DAYS WILL SOON ELASPSE. JUST BUSY FIRING PEOPLE NO TIME TO WORK. HE SENT KAUNDA TO ANGOLA WHAT OF MALAWI
the p.f is failing to do what it said it would do in 90 days instead HH becomes their 90 days deliverance on atacks nd so on….. but its quiet clear that zambians wil not continue feeding on empty promises, but who ever promises and dosent fufil in the next election he’s out trying people of their words and right now HH IS THAT PERSON
