  1. Yes, but be careful. Nevers is still government property as former Vice-President. He still deserves a measure of diplomacy.

    • Hamiyanza,read the bible very well.King DAVID was a man of God,but ruled over Israel.so nothing wrong for Nevers to be perident so that he can rule this country based on the ten commandments.The battle is the LORDS

    • Oh shut up Mr Hamiyanze and go and read your bible! Im guessing you were there when God was telling Nevers what to do huh? Read your word and study it, for the righteous are called to rule nations. If you want to stay in the four walls of your church and not spread the gospel to other areas thats your business! I am so sick and tired of hearing ignorant christians telling people to stay in a box! God is bigger than that!!

    • Sweetie.There are very few people who are real christians,the rest are fake,including the so called pastors.How i wish people can stop using the name of God to get what they want ! Hypocrites,and you hear them claiming to say and do something because God told them.And when you critically look at their lives,there’s nothing christian about them.

  2. Mr Mumba, you really like media briefings and press conferences. Do you remember that Levy Mwanawasa sacked you on such pomp and over zealousness. Stay calm, get police permits, you will rule Zambia one day. But at the rate you are moving, you will make a big mistake again.

  3. This will be the order of the day for politicians in zambia from today until ukwa is out in 2016. Police State, confirmed.

    • get permits to do meetings. even when hh comes we are we going to do as we please? jast because its mumba/ thats why the boss is going all the way up to 2026.

  4. Dr. Mumba tamwatekanya ba Mudala… GOD is calling,go back to where you belong iwe shimapepo!! You can not fight the spitting Cobra.

  5. Please Hemiyanza don’t show ignorance on the blog.You are just jealous of Nevers ka chabe,he is just doing what you have failed to do.let him speak for the many voiceless who can not be head than hid on the blog.Nevers,before a he became pastor he is a full time Zambian who I guess is free to chose what he wants.Nevers persue your dream as it fits you.

  6. Political witch hunt by master puppeteer MCS and servile police being used for political purposes like house niggas.Our party president has a right to assemble because zed is a democracy with rights.Sata shud go and be president of North Korea if he wants to dictate and deny freedoms.

  7. European Union countries have noted with worry how Zambian political landscape is slowly being erroded with undemocratic signals. Commenting on BBC on the recent stance the Zambian government has taken with the opposition and upholding the Public Act law with regards to freedom of assembly and other libertities, the secretary of foreign affairs mr. William Hague expressed sadness at events unfolding with the Zambian government that was in recent times being seen as a promising democratic country in the southern African sub region.

  8. I wonder if these courts are just interested in making money from peeolple. How can they charge two million kwacha for an offence which does not even exist. Don’t they feel ashamed of handling politically motivated matters like this one? I thought these people were honourable but they just accept any case no matter how trivial to be heard in court. Shame on judiciary

  9. I cant stand men without hair
    Why on earth are men scared of showing the baldness instead they shave all their hair
    One word ‘YUCK’ Zambian men must change that is why some of us have now stopped dating you and we are being taken by foreigners, you need to raise your game
    Thanks

  10. ba pf naimwe. dont make a hero out of that failure called nevers. by arresting and releasing him will make alot of zambians, including me, to start sympathising with him. learn from the FR Frank bwalya’s brushes with mmd. who came out tops?

  11. This is not good for Democracy, why Ba Sata…..? IS Nevers a threat? why afraid to detain HH in the cells?

    VivA Mumba….

    • let HH conduct a meeting without a permit and you will see him being locked up. the police are now vigilant. even when we want to hold a private party we get permits from the police,who is nevers not to get one? atase

  12. Where is HH to give solidarity? Nevers was always there for Him…….HH worries me alot by being so personal……Nevers please don’t u ever go to bail out HH if he is harassed by Sata..ungrateful under 5.

  13. Dr.Mumba and all those MMD top leaders who were incarcerated on trumped charges by Michael Sata will triumph as darkness cannot rule over righteousness.Amen!

  14. This is SATA for Zambia.what about the PFs publc order act,mwanya ba opposition,you will dance to their tune.Ba Nevers you can’t be the president of two political parties………….Arrest him and throw him into jail..he bringing chaos in the most BELOVED MMD party.the party with VISION and A HEART FOR ALL ZAMBIANS NOT theessseeeee the PAYYYYYYA Farmmmmmmmmer…..useless

  15. This chap will be spending X-mas day and boxing day in the cells! so if this chap was sacrificing for us the Zambian people why did he pay the 2metre bail money so very very  quickly.why? You missed home your hot meals and hot baths eh? This chap can’t take a bullet for anybody not even his missus sanctimonious fake pastor iwe.

    PS. Next time please apply for a permit; the law is very crystal clear its not there for decoration.

  16. This is real politics. U want to rule without sleeping in a police holding cell! Ask KK,FTJ,LPM and MCS. U have just been initiated.

  17. How come he is the only person doing the MMD sign “the hour sign”? Currently the opposition look like lightweights for the Cobra.

  18. Mr. Mumba, please….Resign, Repent and Reform. That is your only hope because this downward spiral of events will only get worse. I have said it one too many times…you’re not cut out for this job, period! You’re not a politician, you never were. Take my advise seriously boss!

  19. This guy wants a short cut to power. I saw him organinising a public meeting with Shamanenge ( Chief Nkana) without a permit. MMD never allowed that so why is he complaining. I insist the bagger is not MMD but a maggot opptunist. Ask him why his family is still out of Zambia

  20. @22 Aipepeta- Are you in Zambia. Ask HH. The roads are good and the fake maize shortage has been tackled. Nervous is a devil that needs to be checked.

  21. P F President Maiko Sata is reasoning through his black tobacco stained anus becauser his brain is polluted with dagga

  22. Iam dissapointed.I thot PF is going 2 change politics of vindictiveness.This is a blow 2 democracy.Lets concetrate on building our nation not occupying ourselves with trivial matters.

  23. Number 15 the one who never misses pa Nsaka koswe, everytime you open your mouth it is like kutoyileti. Stool pid fu. You must find yourself a wife and stop posing as tho’ you are a womanfu.

  24. Pastor  Nevers Mumba!  The men of God and kings in the bible days took  heed of the advise, rebuke and correction from the prophets of old, PLEASE  go back to the pulpit, that is your calling , you abandoned the church and the sheep just to be in this dirty games of politics for greed and selfish reasons.Its not too late, you can still choose the right path God ordained you to walk and fulfil his purpose for your life here on earth, that is establishing the kingdom of Heaven here on earth.PLS take Heed!

  25. And we wonder why zambia hasn’t developed in 50yrs?This is it zambians.We expend all our energies on finishing off political opponents,on opportunistic defections and on “our tribe”.In the meantime we neglect things that need far more focus,diligence and discipline.Look how dirty Lsk is you’ll understand how zedians lack focus,diligence and discipline.Sata is just exhibiting these unfortunate zambian traits by focusing on Mumba or UPND yet some of you f.o.o.ls are glad he is giving you his 4th best effort.Roast in your own fo.o.lishness and self inflicted poverty ama zambians bcoz you love mediocrity.

  26. This guy is planning to hold rallies without a permit so arrest him. MMD never allowed the opposition to hold rallies without permits. Even when they obtained one this would be cancelled at the last minute. I saw this guy at Nkana with so many expensive vehicles trying to organise a meeting. He was VP(fake) and was in the fore front trying to justfy the Public Order Act so what has changed now.

  27. 17 Kangwine – He is just a Nuisance. I pass through Chief Nkana every day and on Monday afternoon I found Mumba & Co arguing with the police over holding a rally without a permit. His arguement was that as a Zambian he had every right to hold a meeting without asking for permission. Right, but when he was in the system why did support the Public Order Act? Why didnt he fight to remove it? Never(pun) thought he would be on the other side of the fence. He used the same police to hound Mr Sata so let him taste his own medicine. The guy is fake. I remember when Gen Miyanda told Nervous jut to come out in the open about his political ambitions. This guy said that politics were below his standing. So whta has changed now. Arrest the demagogue.

  28. just get a permit iwe ka mudala, no sympathy from me, at least he’s now visited kamfinsa not on a fact finding mission but as a detainee.

  29. ….. it is better to encourage diversity in opinion than stifling debate on national issues. This attempt as history spells out for those with ears, the current environment might just end up selling Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD) and Dr Nevers Sekwila Mumba as a political heavyweight. My plea is for the Patriotic Front to focus on delivery, putting into practice or better put implementing election promises as time is running out

  30. I am shocked that so many Zambians still do not know that you don’t need a permit to hold a meeting in Zambia. The Public Order Act was struck down by the Supreme Court in the State versus Christine Mulundika and others case. All you need is to inform the police so that they provide security. The fact that so many Zambians can not defend the right to assemble especially for political enemies makes me cry for my country. How shallow can we Zambians get. An abuse is being perpetrated, and we Zambians should be unanimous in defending the right to assemble whether we are Sata’s supporters or not.

  31. Who is right between Mumba and de police? Is de President involved in dis? Wat does de law say abt public meetings of Mumba’s maginitude? However,i would like 2 advice de police 2 b wary with fellows like Mumba nd HH.Dey’re v bad deciples of SATA.
