The United Party for National Development (UPND) has dissociated itself from the killing of Western Province Minister Obvious Mwaliteta’s cook, who has been murdered in Livingstone.

UPND campaign manager and Mazabuka Central Member of Parliament, Garry Nkombo, says the incidence is regrettable but that his party has got nothing to do with the killing of Johan Lyakoka.

Mr Nkombo says it was also wrong for Mr Mwaliteta to make assumptions and accusations that the UPND has brought youth from Lusaka into Livingstone.

Mr Nkombo said he understands that the death of Mr Mwaliteta’s servant was an emotional affair but that Mr Mwaliteta should allow the police to investigate instead of accusing the UPND.

“It’s a regrettable incident to see a life being lost in unclear circumstances of that nature, but Mr Mwaliteta should not make assumptions and accusations to link the UPND to that,” he said.

“I understand it is an emotional affair but it’s also wrong to say we (UPND) brought in youths from Miles Sampa’s Constituency into Livingstone,” Mr Nkombo said.

“Look, the only person who came from outside Livingstone is only me the campaign manager and not anyone else,” he said.
He said it was wrong the PF campaign manager to link the UPND to the murder case because that was a wild insinuation which also violates the electoral code of conduct.

Mr Nkombo advised Mr Mwaliteta not to make accusations and conclusions that the UPND has ferried youths from Lusaka in order to bring confusion in Livingstone.

Mr Nkombo said that if Mr Mwaliteta knows where the same youths are camped, then he should take the police there.

“Mr Mwaliteta should not make accusations and conclusions that the UPND has ferried youths from Lusaka to Livingstone to instill fear in the PF. That is it not correct,” he said.

However, Mr Nkombo demanded that the perpetrator of the murder case be
brought to book.

He said that it was the intention of the UPND to see the elections being free and fair without any violence of any type.

Mr Nkombo, who also sent a message for condolences to Mr Mwaliteta, said it was the hope of the UPND to see the law take its course, adding that the bereaved family should wait for the final report from the medical practitioners to ascertain the cause of death.

Johan Lyakoka 19, a cook for Mr Mwaliteta was murdered in Livingstone in unknown circumstances, the incident which many PF members suspect to be the infamous Mapatizya fomular which is mainly associated with the UPND.

The body of Lyakoka was found on Saturday morning lying on the tarmac along the Lusaka road opposite Crossroad Lodge a few meters away from where the deceased and his colleagues were sleeping.

  1. This is a confession of black sheep coz no one said it was upnd dat was behind de killin of dat innocent poor soul. I implore our police 2 quickly move in now dat we v a prime suspect in de name of garry nkombo n his bitter upnd

    • suspect everybody,, then use elimination method, first suspect mwaliteta, then the 100m away pf camp, then girlfriends and wives,,, the upnd

    • Ba “Da Genius” – Please read the previous article entitled: “Kafue MP, Obvious Mwaliteta’s 19-year-old brother-in-law murdered in Livingstone”.

      In this article Mwaliteta clearly insinuates that it is the UPND and the Mapatizya Formula that orchestrated this heinous crime. In fact Mwaliteta should be picked up for questioning by Cops because he seems to know more than meets the eye.

  2. Its always regretable to lose a human being,who ever is responsible should know that they can hide from a human eye but not the creator.what if it were your own brother,plis let’s value human life.why behave like those who butcher mbuzi kuchibolya

  3. Arrest Mwliteta the way Ruth Mbagus parents were arrested . Why did he carry a cook to Livingston. Are there no such services in Livingtone. Why accuse the opposition before the police would investigate. Thats a pre emptive stratagy.

  4. Death is a sad, cold, lonely, poignant and an emotional situation that strikes at the very core of our human existence and what makes this one potentially explosive is the political insinuation being made by the bereaved family.
    No one wants to lose their loved ones, but we must understand that there are always bad people out there who want to inflict misery on others.
    Not all deaths (murders) are politically motivated and to point an accusatory finger at someone without proof, is a recipe for disaster!
    Nkombo is right, if Mwaliteta knows the killers let him pass that info to the police.

    We refuse political demagoguery.

  5. I have been told by many that it was on news and that Mapatizya formula was behind the killing . who ever said that must give more information to the police.

    • Mapatizya formular is a way of using all your powers, knowledge to win an ellection in a Tonga Land. Sacrifise and do the things taht will saticify you.This formular doest not include VAIOLENCE NO. Use your Brains to campain and win.

  6. Was he a cook , brother in law or Garden boy .youths stay away from politics ,the real old men the politicians are not dying.

    • yah y are these pipo changing statements, in the morning i ready that he was a brother-in-law to mwaliteta but now he has changed to being a cook next a hired youth, sorry indeed, mhrp.

  7. 1. He was at a lodge
    2. He went outside to answer a phone call
    3. He went out side bare footed
    Questions

    1. Why did Mwaliteta come with a cook at a lodge
    2.Why did he go out without shoes
    3. Are their any marks to show a scuffle
    4.Why Mwaliteta breakin down constantly
    Action
    1.Arrest Mwaliteta so that he does not interefer with investigations
    2.Go no net work provide and retrive phone . recieved and dialed

    • everybody is a suspect at this stage… retrace the victim´s steps the last 48 hours leading upto his death…. used elimination method,,, start with mwaliteta,,,

  8. what has a cook got to do with affairs of Livingstone Central.>?forget ..the chap was killed by pf cadres for ritual issues..

  9. WHY THIS LINK BETWEEN UNPD AND DEATH? SOMETIMES IT (UNPD) IS ACCUSED TO WANTING TO TAKE OVER POWER FROM PEOPLE WHEN THEY DIE. THIS EXPLAINS THEIR MAPATIZYA FORMULAR. I JUST DON’T UNDERSTAND. COME OUT CLEAN OR YOU WILL BE MISUNDERSTOOD.

  10. OF ALL THE FORMULAS, THEY CHOSE A PROVOCATIVE AND UN PEACEFUL ONE – ‘MAPATIZYA’. THIS SHOULD TELL YOU THE KIND OF PEOPLE THEY ARE – SECRET SOCIETY.

  11. any normal human being would link this to upnd becoz they proudly said that they would use the mapatizya formular. what a bad coincidence. kanwa a kumene neshamo.

  12. Guys, I wonder why you are winding round and round. This is simples and the solution to the puzzle is as follows:
    -The deceased is brought to Mwaliteta’s home to work as a Cook by the wife.
    -Mwaliteta start seeing some strange closeness between the Cook and his wife.
    -In order to dispel suspiscions the Wife to Mwaliteta gives a fake revelation that in fact the new Cook is related to her and that he is actually her Cousin.
    -Mwaliteta does not buy this deep down his heart and plans for a revenge when time is ripe.
    -Chance shows up for Livinstone campaigns and Mwaliteta hires his thugs to eliminate the cook in their outing.
    -Cook is found dead and Mwaliteta is in the forefront pointing accusing fingures.
    Where is the wife? What is her story? ziiii – Why? Balopola Boyfriend
