  1. WOW Maureen mwanawasa kneeling before Sata? Didnt she chase him from LPM’s funeral?? Aint life a bleep…wafukame mwana mutapi

  2. @lisa….they say that days are numbered.. We should watch our mouthes.  Sata has warned about past and current corruption cases a good reason to “be in good terms with him” if you understand. Chimbokaila is calling. Calling all corrupt persons and thieves…….by the way what happened to the money that which was wired to France for the late LPM funeral. I thought the french govt picked up his hospital bill :)

  3. Pic#4: Mr Sata ifimeno ukubola? and I dont like that look on Maureen,, u are too close to him! Also Mr Sata, we dont put things in the chest pocket of suit, it looks dirt and UNIP!

    Pic#9: RB pompe myona, nashakulilako!!!

  4. The president’s suit in the first picture is out of fashion, I bought that for my fiance and he said double braised suits are out fashions. But then again, you would expect no zambian on here to have a sese of fashion at all.

    Saying that also the ties should reflcet certain colours ie for the president have atleast the zambian flag, if in opposition atleast teh colours of one’s party.

    I am sorry if i know too much, but then again with my CIMA, ACCA and MASTERS and soon going for my PHD i suppose you would expect that , and I am only 27

    Thanks

    • Yes you should be sorry that you know way too much of NOTHING……. Just take a minuet to look at your spellings and you’ll see that you really know too much….

    • hehehehehehehehe…..when Sata leaves office after 2 terms as a woman you will have been finished at 37yrs…. what PHD? you mudered a cockroach.

    • Imwe naimwe ba Mushota mulekaila fye. You can’t even spell ati my fyonono(CIMA & ACCA ). What school did you go to? You are embarrassing yourself. Just shut it and sit down.

    • Ka Mushota, wachila mo…Awe, that is too much. I feel I have the right horn for your H.O.L.E. I have some great craving for you. I only hope the media shall permit to publish our clip on this forum. Maybe this will keep you away. You are just an I.M.P.U.T.I

  5. Yes you should be sorry that you know way too much of NOTHING……. Just take a minuet to look at your spellings and you’ll see that you really know too much….

  6. I am not in a habit of responding to the likes of you  but I feel compelled to mention that you contradict yourself this time around. You condemn others sense of fashions but yet you bought the same suit for your fiance ??? Read your article again…..

    “The president’s suit in the first picture is out of fashion, I bought that for my fiance and he said double braised suits are out fashions. But then again, you would expect no zambian on here to have a sese of fashion at all”
    I don’t blame your fiance….How would you feel if he bought you a dress a 74year old african woman would buy for herself…..

    • what the heck Mushota ACCA is good qualification if u went to a major graduate school like oxford MIT, BROWN YALE CRANFIELD , CAPETOWN UNIVERSITY, INSEAD , OR HARVARD BUSINESS SCHOOL i would applaud you acca any zambian school liver without distinctions in his results statement can apply and do via correspondence for your infor its double breasted iwe stupid skanga pa kunya you always boast about your white trash probably one of those trailer park white scotts who have a fantasy for dark girls like blue black colour of test for test for presence of light

  7. LIFE NI ZEE. THE PHOTOS LOOKS GREAT. I AM NOT A FAULTY FINDER BA LT THE OTHER PHOTOS HAVE NO COMMENTS ON THEM AS TO KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING AND WHO IS IN THE PICTURE ESPECIALLY THE LAST ONES.

    GREAT JOB COMRADES

  8. # 16
    Thats Oslo Norway my dear…Mvula and Momoney Besa are in the last picture…’bowtie’ dancer is DicMalo…one good thing about Oslo is that its a very outgoing and career motivated bunch of Zambians…Master/PhD level…amazing Zedians!

  9. #13 Ugly, ooops Pretty

    I bought the suit and he condemned me for buying and refused to accept it. I duly refunded the cost of it, £412 it did cost. All I am saying is It is out fashion, and wearing that is out of touch, its like wearing a suit with sandalls, like having a tie on a t shit, like me wearing my top and a suit

    I regret that I am always one step ahead in a lot of my thinking, MY iQ test I did on my Iphone 4s showed I have a good head between my shoulders.

    I just want to pass my wisdom, education and Intergrity and Intelligency I have accumulated for the last 7 years, because when i was 20 I pretty much knew nothing much

    Thanks

  10. @9 Mushota, you need a Best Critizising award, Ever finding something wrong with Zambia and our leaders, don’t worry that’s old stock as older fashion is coming back. Have just ordered 50 new suits for the President.

  11. Maureen, hope you have reconciled with President SATA. While, life is a Journey, We have leant something that we should not look upon people you never know what tomorrow holds.
    Lovely picture and proud to be Zambian. Well Done President SATA you seem to be bringing everyone together. We missed this for years

  12. I can’t believe Moureen Mwanawasa keeling down before Mr. Sata. The way she told off the old man in Chipata was embarancing. The oldman looked soaked as the security personnel led him away. Do unto others as you would want them to do to you really. Days are numbered. It’s a good lesson to all of us.

  13. #19
    In branding reseach has shown that people who enjoy brands(like you going about a suit or when i did my IQ test on my Iphone 4s) are either less educated or have poor back grounds…the idea is that they want an idea of self actualisation or to belong to something great…a subjective feeling-NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT…Deeper thinkers-regardless of education and indeed the educated do not put great value on brands because they have already achieved a sense of belonging…they is alot to think about and do then value three piece suits! This is the group Sata is identified with… Finally, your head is above your shoulders!!!

    • Wonderful comment Dojo do #26. What I have realized with this Mushota “thing”, she likes attention, and when she says something, she would brag so that people would recognize her input which turns to be useless most times. But you really picked her and put in her place

  14. @Mushota . . . . .God has blessed me with looks so your oops is understandable. And I accept it . . . .  . .you had to SEE me to prove that I am what I call myself. 

    As for your arguement  “it’s water under the brigde”. 

    Have a lovely day :)

    • Pretty, dont waste your time on that mushota! the woman is in her late 40s and still struggling to find genuine love. thats why she ended up with that old man.she is really desparate to settle down. so just understand.

    • baby strawbwerry, (28) what are you talking about? Bemba’a do not have nyau dancers. If you do not know this, you probably are one of thise people who masquerade as Zambian with a forged passport. I’ll get home office you to check you out

  15. LOL mushota you always give hints that you are a mumbwa mumbwa village transplant , i mean what normal sane black person would be so impressed with Scotland which is a dump . What is a double braised suit? you must have memories of a mbaulu seered onto your brain because it’s a Double breated suit not double braised. , all that haggis and oxo cubes your white man is feeding is has made you lose touch. Sata just needs a tailor for his suit because it’s obviously oversized but his suit is timeless and double breasted suits will never go out of style, even new suit collections like that of tom ford and Canali. Class is something you clearly crave and do not have Mushota , and funny thing where did you even get the ‘double braised’ because thats sounds like you got it from Oxfam

  16. I remember as a child, i used to go to the dentist for a procedure called ‘scale and polish’. it is expensive but being the president mike chilufya sata can afford it. SMILE!!!!!!!!:::

  17. Maureen’s kneeling before Sata shouldn’t come as a surprise. I have always known that politicians will fight publicly but meet for a cup of coffee privately to laugh at the masses for believing that every political drama they witness has truth to it. Just the other day (independence day) RB was asked how it felt to be back at house – for celebrations. His response? “I do come here…” The question is: When does he go there? Who does he go to see? Etc. Here’s is what I think ( just assuming). MCS tells RB; don’t worry my friend,  I will lock you up for a month then pardon you soon after. That no one will say I turned a blind eye to all the accusations against you. RB says, “good idea, let’s drink to that, good night my friend.” Just think, HH and RB are now good buddies…

  18. Guys here never have something nice to say,BE FAIR in your comments,everything was lovely the reunion Sata does keep grudges eish,let love one another and stop this unecessary critism ,so what if hes teeth look rooten u shud know he’s god’s creation,,,careful go will punish u

  19. @ Infidels Baghdad Zulu  . . . .I wouldn’t count on that “luck” this time around. My feeling is that he is visiting State House in order to “gain sympathy or whatever”. Rupiah Banda cried when he lost and also his people cried.  If they knew they were friends with the incoming why was he crying.  He is going there to strike a deal. Am sure he would rather pay back some monies then be tormented with court cases. One month in prison may no be a big deal but the mental anguish having to go to court is torture, and at his age hmmm

    Have you been following the issues between HH & MCS, HH  & RB.  HH went into the pact with MCS to lead the PACT.  Some tribal reasons. But anyway I know politics is a dirty game just like him visiting State House can still land him in prison.

  20. @Pretty I like your analysis too. Just the kind of blogger I would love to sit down with and talk these things through. Thanks for being an open minded blogger.
    Anyway, what is Maureen trying to gain by kneeling before MCS?

  21. I still think MCS is still trying to dribble us Zambians on RB’s future. Long before LPM scooped RB for Veep. MCS was always calling on the latter -RB – so he could help him convince the Easterners to help put PF in power. Back then, pictures from the press captured  the two in bear hugs calling each other my “favourite mbuya.” if that relationship has since deteriorated, then something rather serious must have happened. Anyway it’s like CIS – still unfolding…

  22. Mushota, ACCA or CIMA is not a 1st degree. the university that accepted you to do a masters should be ranked very poorly i guess. you are so full of yourself, i dont know the kind of background you have BITCH.

  23. Mushota grew up suffering, and she cant believe shes overseas. Please understand her, shes a fromer Tasinta, and what do you expect of her,useless bitch who has been on a cargo container and mistakenly reaches Scotland.

  24. Ba first lady looks great Dr kaseba, maureen knees for Sata that should have been the headline, days are number for real ba maureen teba tamfishe Sata at Levy’s funeral? Anyway nice to see zambians coming together and celebrate independence despite different political views, thumbs up RB, KK and the rest who attended.

  25. #9 Mushota,
    You probably meant to say ‘double breasted suit’, there is nothing like ‘double braised suit’.
    I’m sure you have eaten ‘braised steak’ in Glasgow restaurants with your fiance and you thought it also applies to suits.

  26. @ Infidels Baghdad Zulu  .  . .. Check my comment @ 5 . . . .My gut feels tells me this is “utuchawa”  . . . . .nice favors.  Kneeling is to humble herself before the same public she had humiliated him in front of with the view of appeasing him. Of course for reasons …. he is in charge. There is some issue of outstanding. Min.of  Finance wired $1million to France when LPM was in hospital. ………….. Like a spouse who is caught in an adultery case .. one has to make up…..

  27. Ba Mushota do what you can in 10 yrs you are going to be 37yrs… as woman you will be out of fashion. hehehehehehehehe!

  28. I love reading comments but why is it that most bloggers fall for Mushotas tricks.She will pass one comment and the entire thread will be full of people attacking her/him and nobody comments on the actual story or pictures.having said that..in pic#8.is the lady standing next to the first lady their daughter?

  29. Mushota

    I think you are an attention seeker. In social stratification strata, You are trying to find where you belong. I can already predict that your branded as upcoming psychiatrist’

  30. @mushota;

    You are a Zombie, are those the kind of (academic) qualifications you can boast about in a public blog? Those are next to nothing. Consult!

    Im sure you dont even know the measurements of your own shadow!

  31. First of all, I have made tiny minute transgression and by my standard and with my education I should have known. I know breasted and was merely testing some people, and I get ridiculed from the onset. The perception that I haven’t got my qualification, am useless, spellings mistakes, is a joke really, I use an Ipad 2 to type and the keys on those can be small. I know some people don’t even know what an Ipad 2 is. Well i have 3 of them but that is not the point.

    All I want is to educate, enlighten, share my wisdom, be a benchmark for the mentally underprivileged people. Be an inspiration and be admired so people say, “I wan to be like her.”
    Instead of being hated without any no reasons whatsoever. It hurts; people grow up and accept me as I am. I am Zambian too
    Thanks

  32. nice photos…good tha Ba Moreen has apologised to Sata by kneeling. Ala bane Musalu wali pesamba alaya pamulu. Be good to all people even mad ones.

  33. Beautiful photos, Thank you God for the peace in my country! Lots of Love Zambia!.. Its a Friday, the dancing shoes are on, where the party is at?

  34. I have no issues with Mushota but i have issues with people who respond to her sick hallucinations, its either you have a much lower IQ than her or you’ve too much time to waste than your senses to fall for her childish antics. enough said already.

  35. I agree with # 50 & 54..& 55…if i may add ,my sense is that Mushota must a first yr student at one of glasgow cheap college…….Here is hierachy of needs in order of occurance..physical requirements (food, shelter etc), Safety and security, social needs (love affection ..etc), Self -Esteem, Self Actualisation (Power, Affiliation)…Sata is on the last need hence fashion (social need) is the least of his worries. Besides he is hard core so fashion is not on his agenda.

  36. I think i like Mushota. She or He for that matter knows how to entertain her/himself and annoy people that have nothing much to do but read his/her intentionally provoked postings :)

  37. Nice pics…People why spoil the party and start responding to sad internet trolls like that man/woman in this common thread…please don’t feed the troll !!

  38. Could it be that HE Sata didnt invite Vera and Regina. I feel they deserv such an invitation since they test the same fruit.

  39. Yes nice pictures.. was the President dancing with that band in picture #13?
    LOL Mushota why do you have 3 iPads? You know you are very fun and creative I have to say :)
    Hahaha @53 Maria… kinda agree with your comments. Can’t believe people are getting worked off by Mushota. Do you really believe a sane person who knows how to write and has access to the internet can be talking Mushota’s language? That’s just an Avatar and the real Mushota probably just laughs at your responses for taking her comments too seriously. But I think most people who fall for her comments are the new bloggers. For your info this lady has been around for few years now and I gotta give it to her she has not changed her Avatar and her style or writing.

  40. Greetings all

    It’s simply great to see Zambian leaders joining hands to celebrate Independence day. These pictures speak louder than any political speech on national unity.
    Reading some of the comments above, one feels the urge to remind some people that:

    1. This forum is not a bragging wall for our educational achievements.
    2. Freedom of speech does not give us the right to disrespect other people (including leaders) or say bad things about them.
    3. Finally, if you are not happy with anything about Zambia, why not do something to try and change it yourself rather than sit down and criticise others (including leaders)?

  41. Bafikala webali nagative dont be, Independence cerebrations at State House were great.Did you see the excitiment with KK, he has not shown such  happiness at State House since he left office 20 years ago,this was approval of President Sata’s goverment by our founding father.long live President Sata, long live KK and RB I dont know what to say but mwaba etole daddy  

  42. Micheal Chilufya Sata . Truly a President for all Zambians.Nomba plse bakateka dont forget to sortout the stupid chaps.  

  43. Congrats Mr President for uniting Zambia, it would be great to hear that the President pardoned us Zambians owing Council Rate etc.

  44. Mushota is just a monk guys. Lets not be cheated. She/He is a rotten duck and says rubbish all the time and spoils everything. Mark my word he/ she is a mad person who needs phychatric help.

  45. I think maureen should work with kaseba. let then renegotiate the maureen mwanawasa innitiate. ithink it was gud and they can start something together

  46. Gud Mr Sata,u r uniting the nation Zed is for every1,in power or out of power.u ll be remember like K.K as a great a leader.

  47. But you CHI-MUSHOTA #9 – what is WRONG with you? What is the relationship between your so-called many DEGREES and independence day? I don’t think your so-called fiance will ever marry you…but don’t come crying onto this blogsite when he finally runs away from you BECAUSE we will all celebrate.

  48. Heya i’m for the first time here. I found this board and I in finding It really useful & it helped me out a lot. I’m hoping to offer one thing back and aid others like you aided me.

  49. I love and appliciate you mother Zambia. this goes to DR KK,  you are a true father, leader and a hero who knows nor colour nor tribalism coz we all the same and deserves the best. we love you dad Kaunda,  you my Hero. God bless you and this country. 

  50. I like the significant facts you offer you on your articles or blog posts.I will bookmark your blog page and look at once again below on a regular basis.I’m fairly confident I will discover considerably of recent stuff suitable below! Superior luck for that subsequent!
