Expelled former MMD National Secretary Major Richard Kachingwe has announced the formation of a parallel MMD structure that aims to remove Dr. Nevers Mumba from the party.

And violence brought up today when youths from rival groups of the MMD clashed in Lusaka.

Major Kachingwe revealed that the parallel MMD structure has been formed by genuine MMD members interested in safeguarding the interests of the party from alleged imposters.

He told a media briefing that Dr. Mumba has brought a lot of confusion since he was elected as party president.

Major Kachingwe said disclosed that the new parallel MMD structure will operate from its new secretariat on Plot 124, Mambula Road off Bwinjimfumu Road in Rhodespark which he said is the legal office for the former ruling party.

He also challenged the party’s National Executive Committee to dissolve itself as it has allegedly failed to uphold the party’s constitution.

At the same, suspended MMD National Women’s Chairlady Catherine Namugala announced that the new parallel MMD will hold a national convention within 90 days to elect its new leadership.

Mrs. Namugala said all the positions in the MMD including that of the President and NEC members should be contested for at the convention.

She said the fight that genuine MMD members have embarked upon is a hard but noble one aimed at protecting the party and its constitution.

Some of the notable people present at the briefing were MMD founder member Bernard Mpundu, suspended MMD District Chairman William Nyirenda, former Ndola DC Joshua Mutisa and some district officials from Muchinga and Northern Provinces.

Former Chimbamilonga MMD MP Brian Sikazwe also attended the press briefing.

And confusion rocked the announcement of the new parallel MMD structure that rival youth groups clashed.

Some Nevers Mumba pro youths started throwing stones into the secretariat offices just when the news briefing was to start.

Running battles ensued leading to traffic jam on Bwinjimfumu road as youths exchange blows and threw stones at each other.

Later Police officers in riot gear arrived on the scene and calmed the situation after the Dr. Mumba led faction had run away and the press briefing resumed.

Police managed to apprehend two youths for their alleged involvement in the violence and took them to Lusaka Central Police for questioning.

    • Major Kachingwe should know that those of us who know how he forged his way into MMD THROUGH a Branch Chairman in Libala are still alive not dead.If he continues to claim that President Nevers Mumba is a high jacker and a conman,we will be forced to spill the beans.The public will know how crooked Kachingwe is.Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones.Be warned.

  1. Where have these miscreants derived their mandate to consider themselves a parallel structure of legally registered entity? Do they really think Zambians are blind of missing greedy, immorality, treachery, delusions and disconnect from what the the General populace want? Because they have found a job of being for hire, they think all Zambians will buy their mischievousness.

  2. Democracy must be seen. The mmd party is no longe ruling.if the can try to be undemocratic whilst in opposition, what shal we see when they form govt.there is nothing tomumbas presidency if it is seen to be imposed.lets improve our democracy

  3. Confusion as wife attempts to retrieve grabbed hubby from Namugala

    “There was confusion this morning in Roma Township when wife to Mbala MP Mwalimu Simfukwe together with her relatives stormed Catherine Namugala’s house to retrieve Mr. Simfukwe who has been living there.

    A Police source told the Watchdog that Police had to be called in because a fight ensued between embattled Namugala and Mrs. Simfukwe.

    After the two were seperated, Mrs. Simfukwe with her relatives drove straight to Lusaka Central Police Station to lodge a complaint against Namugala”.

  4. Kachingwe and Namugala are a total disgrace, they were there when Nevers Mumba was elected president and they did not object. What is their agenda?

    • THE CONFUSION IN MMD IS CAUSED BY OUR SCARED PRESIDENT…IF ONLY HE CAN CONCETRATE ON DELIVERING WHAT HE PROMISED THE ZAMBIANS. NOT TO CONCETRATE ON DISTROYING DR MUMBA.AND EVERYTIME HE ATTACKS DR MUMBA,THE MAN COMES OUT STRONG…MORE PIPO ARE UNDERSTANDING THE FEAR IN SATA.THE BATTLE IS THE LORDS….

  5. ati ba opposition…..
    you are making us more annoyed with your circus.
    whats so difficult with sitting down and iron out your differences maturely, and move on.
    don’t you know that we need a strong opposition to offer cheks and balances to this govt.
    this is why i have always advised the pf govt to just let the opposition have their rallies and see were they will take them to. there is no credible opposition as at now.

  6. And police did not arrest them for lack of a permit indicating that they are in PF books. All genuine opposition can not hold a meeting without being arrested like these sell out

    • Excellent observation my friend. How did they hold a meeting like this one without a Police Permit??? I have always known that Police have never been professional in the way they ar administering this so called POA. Mwasebana ba Kapokola…

  7. Dear Dr. Nevers Mumba,

    This is an appeal to you and your integrity. You have laboured all this long but this is going to hurt your reputation badly. If I was in your boots, I would stand down and not fight it.

    Instead of you fighting it, I would think there would be honour in you announcing your stepping down. The temptation would be to fight it but the struggle is not worth it. Drop it man!

  8. How many were they? Was it lawful assembly. You f…..rs are cheating nobody. Who does not know that you are sponsored by PF. If you were genuine opposition like HH CNP would have arrested you. DO NOT FOOL ANYBODY bastards.

  9. All these stupid things happening are driven by ukwa, namugala and kachingwe are being used by ukwa to disturberise mmd so that we remain with one party state dictatorship. *****S

    • @Kolwe Mwanakolwe. Just go to hell. Youre as !diotic as Kachingwe. I am old enough to be Kachingwe’s father and I am old enough to be your grandfather, but this is besides the point. We are not going to let foo.lish politicians to hide behind the statistic of age. You are just too primitive my boy. Now go and wipe your butt!

  10. My perception is that the two giants ( Nevers Mumba vs Catherine Namugala ) will bruise each to the point that there will be no MMD and the winner in that case will be Catherine Namugala and her group.
    I just marvel at her determination to make sure that she and her group either wins the battle or both parties lose by destroying the party the in fighting, because thru these in fighting No meaningful party program would be carried out.

  12. MMD you are finishing yourselves for nothing but selfish ambitions.Nothing of this sort is progressive in your quest to attain stability. Better dissolve yourselves and start afresh with all positions open for contesting.

  13. ZambiaN reporting is hopeless. The pictures of this storY are not explained anwywheree in the story. Why is a cheque for 14 ngwee being written for Mumba? Captions are tied to the news. They are not supposed to be mere labels

  14. That is your end Mr. Kachiingwe. the two of you cant upset the tables. You are not heavy weights. Test your weight by standing in the pending Kabwata by election if you think am dreaming

  15. Sata fears Nevers too much. U cant ve bold nation with a coward president. As for Kachingwe and Namugala,MMD is not their personal to holder property. People ve come and gone in MMD and they can just go if they think Dr Nevers cant b their leader. If they are popular,they can form their own party. If anything,I fear the worst befalling them. God hates rebellion of any kind-Psalm 109 and Isaiah 7:2-5

    • GOD IS INVOLVED WERE EVER SOULS ARE.SINCE YOUR PRESIDENT HAS FOR GOTTEN THAT THE PIPO HE IS RULING ARE NOT HIS,BUT GODS,AND THAT EVERYTHING WICH HAPPENA UNDER THE SUN,GOD KNOWS.THE BATTLE IS THE LORDS

  16. There is/will be only one MMD in Zambia.
    Who has the certificate of registration?

    One group is masquarading falsehood as MMD.

    Registrar(not PF cadre Andeleki) at PACRA should inform the nation.

    • Ignorance! Political parties are not registered by PACRA but the Registrer of Societies. Andeleki Resigned and is no longer registrer of Societies.

  17. Its checkmate! 4 nevers mumba i think de bro is being punished 4 neglecting God’s flock.the mmd shud cal 4 a national convention 2 elect new office bearers and folster party unity coz a house divided by itself cannot stand

    • YOU SHOULD SAY THE DEVIL IS FIGHTING HIM BECAUSE DR MUMBA WILL TURN ZAMBIA TO ISRAEL OF OLD,WHEN IT WAS RULED BY KING DAVID OR KING SOLOMON.HE WILL RULE BASED ON THE TEN COMMANDMENTS…….THE BATTLE IS THE LORDS…..

  18. As usual, LT, your reporting is atrocious, very poorly written story, poor grammar, everything is just low standard. From today, I will be marking your lead stories out of a possible mark of 10. For this one, you get a paltry 2/10, FAIL.

  19. hule namugala, two events in one day. keeping mwalimu Simfukwe nude under lock and key at her residence and attending a press briefing.

    atase… ama hule want to rule us….

  20. REAL MMD YOUTH, GET READY THESE THUGS NEED TO BE STONED IN THE HEAD PERIOD, START WTH KACHI N nAMU GAGAGAGAGA. STUIOPET CHAPS

  21. this is very good hyenas hijackers(hh) from mmd should be removed.yes namugala has a big follwers and mumbwa or sorry mumba will go. next it will be upnd to divide ntundu do it also.

  22. I now appreciate Shakas strategy ” Never leave your enermies behind” Kachingwe’s beating did not serve a good lesson to that sell out,next time tie his balls to a moving vehicle.

    • Kachingwe is old enough to be your father. Are you telling them to also tie your fathers balls to a moving vehicle?

  23. All these comments are UPND sponsered. U will never see HH enter state house. Kachingwe and namugala are just right. Moreover,insults wont take you anywhere. Criticize positively

  24. Ba Pastor please go back to church. am very sad on what is happening to you. politics kills please hear me for the last time. your first church member

  25. MMD is not a personal to holder Messrs. Pipo have come and gone and if u are not hapi u ve many alternatives including forming yo party. Test yo popularity! Zambia is stil a democracy.

  26. This is a problem that MMD have caused on their own, leave PF alone. Blame yourselves for your undemocratic tendances of choosing your leaders. Why is Kaingu and others not commenting on this issue!

  27. You bitter and frustrated people , why always blaming PF for every thing? PF was in opposition and it survived well for 10 years. They (PF) never accused MMD of killing them but they even helped MMD to get the label MPs ……… But how come now a former ruling party is being killed by PF? Nonsense in your blaming PF. The fact is that MMD is destroying itself period.

    Peace and Prosperity to Mother Zambia.

  28. This is a very welcome development. I pray and hope that once Lubinda is hounded out of the PF, for which I am extremely excited because the PF has no life after Sata and these five years, He will join this Major Kachingwe’s and my dear, lovely cousin Cathy Namugala’s renewed MMD. Then, the MMD will return to power in 2016! I will join this revamped party, soon. Kudos to the principled Major and my Nams for taking the bull by its horns! and riding it.

  29. I’m sure you are aware of the King Solomon story KK used to quote. The baby is MMD and the warring mothers are namugaala and Nevers. What will Nevers do now?

  30. I wish the founders of the MMD party could come and see this rubbish. Chiluba, Mwanawasa,Chitala,Chintala,Wina,Rodger Chongwe,Remmy Chipili,Robby Kasuba,Kabunda Kayongo,Bunda Chisenga,Dann Pule,VJ Mwaanga, and other original (1991) party members come and see the rubbish in your party- MMD. BaKelenka bawonaula. Balishiba ubonaushi.

    • You 4got mulemba,aka,chipimo,kasonde,dean,mushota,katele and many more.Those who r still alive pliz speak out 4 the betterment of your party.

  31. Kachingwe find something else to do you have suckled tax payers money stop wasting time nevers is duly elected.did you get a permit from police I know who is backing you and that hussband snatcher without shame.go to the farm you lazy bones MMD will be intact people are watching

  32. How do you call yourself parallel if you are genuine? kachingwe ni chipuwa. Whats wrong with the secretary generals of all the big parties in our country?

  33. It is childish for the two recently discovered moles and national traitors, such as Major Kachingwe and Namugala, to present themselves as the sole custodians of the MMD. They are just displaying a variant of warped logic. Their behavior consolidates the peoples’ assession that the two betrayers do not believe in democratic procedures. I personally had wished Dr. Musokotwane as President, but a democratic procedure favoured Nevers Mumba. Their true constituencies are only vested in areas dominated by the PF. The two hyebas nust, therefore, just openly join their beloved PF which is rich with corruptible money. As for Namugala, her extramural social behavior thru marriage interferences missions will attract the most hostile reaction from legally-married women of Zambia.

  34. Nevers Mumba must serious ponder over his situation. What is happening to him could be attributed to his turning away from the call to serve God which he initially received abundantly. Just as it was in the beginning, God created the first man Adam. He placed him in the beautiful garden of Eden with all the good things at his disposal. But Adam betrayed God by falling prey to the temptations of Satan through his companion Eve. And so Adam automatically lost the favour and grace from God. Inheritance of the curse of death and suffering ensued henceforth, save for the divine intervention and compassion which God had for humanity by sending his begotten son Jesus Christ to redeem the world and reconcile humans with their creator.

  35. but guys can some one tell us what happens when a person has dual membership? we re told ka pastornevers finds himself in that situation.
