Richwell Siamunene prayers at Statehousejpg

Republican President Michael Sata has directed Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) Mutembo Nchito to establish whether UPND president Hakainde Hichilema can be prosecuted over his wealth.

President Sata says it is well known that Mr Hichilema allegedly stole all his wealth.

Mr. Sata has accused Mr. Hichilema of diverting resources from the privatization of companies to his personal accounts.

Speaking when he swore-in re-elected Mpongwe Member of Parliament Gabriel Namulambe as Foreign Affairs deputy Minister at State house this morning, President Sata says he sympathizes with Mr. Hichilema because he has never worked hard for anything that he has.

President Sata also swore in Sinjembela UPND Member of Parliament Poniso Njeulu and his Kalabo Central counterpart Chinga Miyutu as deputy ministers in the ministries of information and broadcasting services and youth and sport respectively.

He says it is very unfortunate that the UPND is no longer the same party it used to be under its founder leader late Anderson Mazoka.

And President Sata says it is funny how MMD president Nevers Mumba is claiming to be taking care of the party when he cannot take care of his hair.

he wondered how Dr Mumba can take of the people of Zambia when he can not take care of his own hair.

He has also accused Dr Mumba of duping his church of resources.

Meanwhile, President Michael Sata says youths in the opposition UNPD and MMD are at liberty to shun the youth day celebrations the same way the women in the two opposition political parties shunned the Women’s day celebrations on Friday.

The head of State however stated that government will not be blamed if the youths do not take advantage of the day to make known to government the challenges that they face.

  1. IWE SATA HH WORKED HARD TO GAIN ALL THE RESOURCES HE HAS…..WHILEST YOURSELF YOUR WERE BUZY CONDUCTING FI MA BUSES…….JUST TALK OF DEVELOPMENT NOT THE WEALTH OF HH…

    • How can a normal MP in UPND stand being sworn-in while the King conducting the ceremony is busy calling his leader names.
      I strongly suggest these so called Deputy Ministers revisit their positions. This is an attack on your party and you can’t stand their as if you also castrated. This is not normal and is unacceptable to people of your standing.
      I now know the President needs medical attention not only those other parts of the body but the brain too before he starts demanding to witness how HH bonks women.

    • I personally don’t have a problem with HH being wealthy for as long as he legitimately acquired this wealth.

      The question is what did HH have before he was given the job to oversee the privatisation programme? What did he own and how much?

      We should not only hold those in govt accountable but equally do the same to those aspiring for office.

      How can we trust HH with more of our national resources if he could cheat on the companies that he was entrusted to evaluate and consequently sending so many people out of employment?

      Let him come clean with his wealth. If he is clean and hardworking we will salute him, but if it turns out that he stole from the poor, let the law take its course

    • Sata,Sata,Sata how many times did I call you? Stop wasting our time,If HH stole do u think levy,RB and Chiluba would have left him go scot free ? Now just in case your brain is not in order let me remind you on three issues.

      1. It’s you and ka Chiluba and derick chintala who floated a tender to any abled company to help in privatisation. HH then at Grantthornton submitted their BID on how much they would charge GRZ to do the work and you agreed , this is what any business man would, unlike yourself who embezzled mezarf flats fund and banked it HH didn’t do that.

      2. May also remind you that unlike PF which has never gone for a convention , UPND has had 3 in a role the first one was when HH was voted by all provinces , Unlike yourself who just anointed himself. The other one was…

    • @Sisi, the same Zambians you are talking about voted Sata as president even when they know Sata was involved in the MERZAF scandal. And Sata has never come out clean. Today we are told that Sata only has 7 guns – I ask u a question, where has his many houses gone? Would I be wrong to assume that he has laundered them?

    • just held a less than 2 years ago you u just went to Kabwe to sugar coat and no elections but u anointed yourself

      3. Sir your are wrong and not befitting of a leader of a country to direct the DPP to prosecute any citizen as the DPP is supposed to independent and not be subjected to commands by any arm of government, Sir this just shows how the judicially is not independent

      Lastly sir I regret worsting my vote on you and I wish 2016 can be like Tommorow.

    • Who appointed HH to oversee the privatisation programme? Did he charge fees for the work that he did?
      Let HH be a model to us zambians that even a Zambia can make wealth.Why pull him down now? HH IS FOR SURE THE NEXT PRESIDENT.

    • Listening is the foundation of any good Leadership, two ears, one mouth…..
      When a true genius appears in this world, you may know him by this sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him. . One may be intrigued to Question, who is bitter, jealous, and egocentric in all these persecutions??
      The study of history is a powerful antidote to contemporary arrogance. It is humbling to discover how many of our glib assumptions, which seem to us novel and plausible, have been tested before, not once but many times and in innumerable guises; and discovered to be, at great human cost, totally false!!. Did Zambians benefit from Chiluba’s blundered resources, vehemently NO!,only the task force team tandem of thieves whose choir master we do know at Bwinjifumu rd and his deacon in the DPP

    • This is almost absurd now. HH had nothing to do with privatisation of companies in Zambia. His firm only acted as receivers on behalf of Lima Bank and RAMCOZ. As far as I know or records stand ZCCM was privatised by a Committe that was chaired by Francis Kaunda. ZPA was responsible for the remainder of companies in Zambia and HH was not even a board member of ZPA.

      This is the problem and PF are doing this knowing Zambians are not very well versed in many issues. Medieval Politics!

    • Ba Zebige, what do you mean? think government must start checkng everyone on how they get to be so stinking rich in a poor African nation like Zambia, infact the rich nations do it, we are all checked, the government here know how much am worth, how much we make every month and how much tax we pay, how many hours we work, be it billionaire or otherwise, thats why the west will always be on top of their game, i can’t believe people are even bragging!This is moving in the right direction, you laugh at our president saying he’s not educated when he surely his acts are more of a fellow than all those calling him names? this should extended to everyone not just opposition members, but everyone making ends meet in the country, this will bring about more money for our land.

    • If you are only looking at the opposition leader then it is victimization. Look at all who did the same work with HH at that time. We know them all & they are there.

    • When your father and sata were busy hooking,young HH was busy investing what do you thing?will he be at par with them? No ways baba.and as a young man if you are one.take HH as your role model not that old burly whose chorus you are coerced to sing.idddiot

    • First of all HH is nt th richest man in zambia in case u didn’t know. Let sata start wit rajan mathani, GBM,kavindele etc before comin 2 HH. We shud congratulate sata if adreses issues like inflation,weakening of th kwacha,late distribution of farming imputs etc.

  2. PERSONALLY HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH HH HAVING ALL THAT WEALTH, ESPECIALLY IF HE WORKED FOR IT. MY ONLY PROBLEM WITH HH IS WHY HE SEEMED TO HAVE UNDER DECLARED HIS NET WORTH IN LAST GENERAL ELECTIONS.

    • Haven’t you heard of capital appreciation? Mind you valuation is a subjective concept. Free lesson for you my friend.

    • SATA declared 7 guns and pistor so what the hell are talking about. I wonder if Obama can do the same on Bill Gates or Donald Trumph

    • Don’t be a hypocrite my friend, what about your president who only declared 7 guns and one or two houses. Is it true that, that is all sata has or he too grossly under declared what he has? Why should you take what Sata says as a true and fair reflection of HH’s assets? Does Sata has the capacity to carry out a proper inventory of someone’s assets really if he cannot know how many jobs (zero) his government has created from the time they assumed power. Is this the guy you can depend on for proper statistics really?

  3. Choking with envy ba CNP president. U mean it is a crime to be rich? This ***** of a president has no shame whatsoever. If it is a well known fact, then he himself as third most powerful person in Chilubas government is an accomplice. How could they not stop him from doing what he claims HH did? How much of the so called diverted wealth relates to fees for HH’s work? Was HH working as an individual or as consultant under a professional firm?

    When did Sata the under grade five president takeover all the functions of governance? He is now judge, DPP, ACC and so on. When Kabimba and GBM both told the nation that they stole, this selectively allergic fool kept quite and instead castigated ACC. What the hell is he doing now this shameless moron?

    • Before Mutembo investigates HH on his wealth, why doesn’t Mutembo first carry out a self investigation of his (Mutembo’s) ill gotten wealth. I am sure his master doesn’t see any wrong in how Mutembo got his wealth from being private prosecutor in the plunder cases.

    • You are the worst moron.You guys are upset because you know that HH chewed money for the privatisation of some companies including Luanshya mine.Please dont be emotional because all we want to know is the truth.The president has a lot of information on most people which most of us dont have.There are things that the common man dont know that the president knows.So please stop calling the president names and let him do his work.There is no smoke without fire!!

    • @ Life is a journey
      you are a sorry thing.iam even convinced that your neighbour screws your wife which you even know but dont want to believe.what facts does the so called president have over HH if not petty jelous. Just learn your lessons if you don’t give your child a decent education he’ll end up like sata or sakeni if you give him a decent education and comes out tops he’ll end up like HH or dambisa moyo.HH made his money out of his consultancy job he was a PARTNER in GRANT THORNTON.maybe you pf misfits do not know who a partner is thats where the problem is.

  4. The end of UPND is near. HH has been holding his MPs captive for a long time but now they want to be part of an all inclusive Government of the people by the people rather than be part of a bitter tribal enclave. The writing is on the wall for all those who have foresight. The PF is the only party with a programme for the transformation of mother Zambia. This country is headed for unprecedented development under the PF and i wish to urge all the people of Zambia to reject bantustan bitter tribal polticians who are blinded by jealousy and envy. Viva Sata, Viva PF

  5. Very petty….Who under declared his wealth…at least the declaration was close to the figures being cited, not 5 guns and a cressida!!!

  6. thanx mr president we have to know were the money for the sale ubz,lima bank .lintico assets went under this chap as liquidator

  7. Havent we hear this speech before mwebantu – where he was asking the same DPP to look for evidence, and also talking about Mumba’s clean shaven head? The only change was the names of the people being sworn in – maybe it is even the same Ministries, for 1st or 2nd deputy ministers. Does it mean each Ministry or set thereof has the samen speech?

  8. Some guys here supporting Sata will rot with jealousy. U must analyze certain comments by certain people before agreeing with them. For years HH has had his money but no one was talking,SATA is now in power and talking,well,i wont be surprised cz those are the results when yo junior has more than u. Wen u buy guns,thats not investment, but wen u buy shares,build and farm,thats investment so may someone please advice our president. If u ve 7 guns in yo house,do u expect 2 find 14 after a year?

  9. HH be strong and ready to rule Zambia.This is prophetic.
    A person who is always on the mouth of kings will be king.
    Please get ready spiritually,pychologically now. Physically
    You are ready.God is using them as tools to proclaim you as
    The in coming leader.

  10. Maybe its in everyones interest to get those riches from HH and give it to the poor Zambians.Guys can anyone tell me what HH has done in his capacity to help the poor?

    • Do not say things you do not know. For your own information HH has been doing alot for residents in lusaka – sinking boreholes, roofing market stalls, sponsoring students to colleges and universities etc. For all you know the clothes you are wearing could have been subsidised by HH.

    • Hahahaha…..ati this is prophetic!! My friend HH will never rule.Change change someone to lead UPND maybe it might happen and that is after 2021

    • The one and only, i don’t think its a good idea to target HH, let him be but you my friend lie don’t about HH helping communities, and the issue of clothes that is just lame.

  11. Mr Sata’s agitating for the prosecution of HH for his wealth is a clear demonstration of envy and bitterness. This is unbelievable that a head of state takes issues with its citizens with such adurcity that was experienced by late dictators like Mobutu, Amin, Bokassa (canibalist) and Mugabe of Zimbabwe. The sickness is definitely taking its tore in this man. We will continue to talk till he dies since Zambina already know how freedom is felt in Zambia. It is now possible to date the the beginnings of Michael Sata political demise as he takes leave of his senses. PF govt officials must be worried as they will out live Sata and Zambian future generation will demand answers when Sata will be long gone.

  12. Jealous president!!!!! workhard and earn yours. Shame on you! VIVA HH.. The old guy is busy campaigning for you. Come 2016 we will teach this old guy a lesson and that is if he will survive upto 2016.

  13. Exactly mr president ,We must know how he accumulated his wealth .You are a rare spicy presido .We pray for your Good health sir.

  14. I had the opportunity to listen to Phoenix news and what he said at state house. Confirmed, this man is mad

  15. He is right to ask for that, is Mr president
    No ordinary Zambian should be so rich so young, unless they are as educated as someone like some of us
    I understand the president and I am 100% behind me, if you are against the president you have mentally challenged and need to go where the sun doesn’t shine forever

    I am sorry I have said this but I am tired of seeing trolls bully me here as well as facebook which I have just joined, wither way I am all the way in support of the president here

    Thanks

  16. This man is a comedian, he has always been and can never run a country. We have seen for ourselves, including those die-hard PF Kaponyas who always attributed any criticism on Sata to bitterness and envy. How can you envy a man like Sata who does not know what it takes to be president? How does Nevers Mumba’s hair become an issue; how is it connected to governance? This is total madness. Even the declaration of 7 guns as the aspiring president’s wealth is comedy at best. This tells you that Sata has never been serious from the beginning; he took politics as a game and not a channel through which one can provide leadership to a group of people. We are in a mess and it is up to us to correct this mess. We made a mistake and now it is our responsibility again to have it corrected…

  17. Our so called president really spooks me. Why start things he cannot finish? How long is it from the time those companies were privatized? Does he mean to tell Zambians that Chiluba, Levy and RB did not know HH was in the privatization syndicate? How about the president himself, was he not part of the government then?
    It is all about prioritise, if you invest in guns expect to be surrounded with corpses; if you invest in farming and land expect wealth!
    Sata needs to realise the value of agriculture. Is it any wonder that agriculture is doing badly under him?
    Sata goes to statehouse, gets bathed and now has the audacity to lecture others about haircare!

    • Good one! He just has to look at the picture where he is in the midst of nyau dancers. Sata definitely looked like the nyau dancers and now that he has cleaned himself in State house he talks of hair care, now that he has been introduced to grooming, Go back from whence you came.

  18. How can Sata manage the nation when he cannot manage his own teeth?
    At least Nevers’ hair loss is a natural factor that one can’t do anything about. But Sata’s teeth decay is due to negligence and mismanagement.
    A his age we expect mature comments from him.

  19. Sata please that is wrong direction stop misuse my vote and i am warning you that come 2016 my vote will go to HH you have no policy direction

  20. does it matter to be mega rich in zed? DPP and his team need to spot out people to persue and the president need to get down on serious things, national programs, BUT IF (MUSHOTA) thinks s/he is educated and not rich, yet not smart enough to realise why HH is more rich than s/he probably not smart enough then..

  21. No wonder this man cannot hold a press conference, he has nothing to talk about?
    Is he telling me that there are no mirrors in state house for him to attack Nevers?
    Among his doctors he should include a dentist.

  22. It is clear the president has sleepless nights over HH and will not rest until he (HH) is thrown into prison.
    There is no way the DPP is going to say anything contrary to the president’s demand. The system is well known.
    It’s unbelievable how petty this president can be, talking about Mumba not caring for his hair. One would think Zambia has no multitudes of serious issues that require his total attention.

  23. It seems the President doesn’t sleep over HH’s wealth. The late Mwanawasa failed to find corrupt practices against HH over the privatisation of companies. He just did his maths correctly by investing the money he was paid for the work he did and it has been yielding fruits ever since.

  24. Pls Mr Sata you are making us your supporters sympathise more with HH. Why have you become so jelousy of HH/ Pls create jobs and stop victimising HH. H e worked hard for his wealthy long time ago leave him alone.

    • M’membe and DPP and ba Sokota (chief privatiser workinig with Valentine Chitalu) are richer than HH. Ba President, you opening a pandoras box!!!

  25. This is a simple and straight forward thing to do. If HH is clean let him just clear himself how he acquired his riches and shame the president. He is not the first one to go through this experience. In KK’s time this was a common exercise, some people were even arrested and its no wonder many politicians in KK ‘s govt have died poor people because they were afraid of stealing. HH this a very simple exercise just clear your name and stop this witch hunting business.

  26. No law should be applied selectively, let all the so called rich men of Zambia should be investigated.Let us be realistic, how many in Zambia are geniuinely rich, those how have worked for their money,maybe one or two, the majority have stolen.And if anything, Zambia does not even have rich people worth talking about.This just waste of resources

  27. Wen will this govt Ever settle and start working mwe bantu all we see are swear in ceremonies?? I regret wasting my vote come 2016 we’ll chuck you out old Man! Viva HH Faka Pressure! Mushota jst shut up Naiwe,

  28. We have a lot of young boys on this blog who dont read history at all. HH is wealthy has been a subject matter not only today. Well, somebody who suddenly becomes a millionaire after chairing the proceeds of privatization and whose background riches are untraceable ,really and unless you are like RB ,you wouldn’t like to check the books of accounts. The way I know Sata once he starts a story ,he knows what he is talking about. Who knows,this could be the dossier they have been singing about exposing him to the commonwealth secretariat. “If you live in a glass house dont throw stones.“ Lets hear what HH will say about this issue than blindly defending him especially you small boys .

    • Sir, we should be objective when we look at things. Wasn’t Sata part of the Chiluba govt that advocated for wholesale privatisation of Zambia’s industries even when some of us protested? Did Sata raise any finger when the figure of the valuation was given to the govt. If he saw nothing wrong then, how come he is now throwing his toys like a spoilt baby. Either he was part and parcel of an incompetent govt then when all this was happening only to realise there was asset stripping now. He should realise that while he points a finger at HH three fingers are point at himself over his part in the incompetence of the government he was part of.

  29. Oh God mweba giva, noku geta-mule geta. Umwana wenu mwatu giva uyu alemoneka kwati ali fulunganya mumutwe. Iyo tata aletuchusha na ma laws yakwe ya Sodom & Gomorrah. Anyway…efyo chaba nga tale sunga wino ama 10 commandments.

  30. We need to know how HH got his wealthy!!! Its not that he worked so hard but its clear that he store from Zambians.This chap HH cannot be trusted and i wonder the problem with bloggers on this site.
    HH is a thief period!! He store and we will get our money back if found wantig.

    • was he tried in your court!!!!! haven’t you heard of the saying innocent until proven guilty, or does it only apply to PF supporters? and oh i forgot it does!!!!!!!!

    • You say HH is a thief period and then you say we shall get our money from him if found wanting. Don’t judge people before you have evidence. How can Sata instruct Nchito to follow HH instead of following himself for the DBZ money he stole. HH is as clean as clean itself. You think the past three presidents including Levy were not smart to spare HH when he was challenging them for leadership? This old man is just full of hate and envy of HH and his wealth. Even with the oil money himself stole through Summer he will not catchup with HH because he knows how to invest his money. He is the Buffet of Zambia. He does not spend money on women and spread children here and there like himself who has children with a dozen women around.

    • My Friend HH was working for an international and worldwide company that pays handsomely not government job or utuma sido companies that some of you guys work for and for you to get Ka one million salary it will take three months.Coopers & Lybrand and Deloitte and Touch they pay their workers well and mind you there as a senior partner you alot of allowances and bonuses given at the end of the year is alot.But not all people who paid handsomely are rich,its just the way you invest your money that matters.We expect the president to give substance to the nation not joking about Nevers Mumba’s hair.Is talking about Nevers’s hair going solve the problems the country is going through?Common Mr President what has happened to you?Where is the constructive criticism that we used hear? Mr Sata

  31. But mudala uyu…what’s wrong with Nervers Mumba’s hair? he hasn’t got any and what’s wrong with that? This man needs some serious help before he start commanding the military to start doing some bizarre things. Do Zambian’s really fear this man or do we just feel sorry for him? Zambia is running on auto pilot.

  32. CLEAR VIOLATION OF THE CONSTITUTION THAT YOU SWORE TO UPHOLD MR HEMCS,SURELY THE EXCUTIVE INTERFERING WITH THE JUDICIARY.HOW ARE WE GOING TO KNOW THAT YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE BOSS.FROM CADRE-CONSTABLE-COUNCILOR -MP AND NOW PRESIDENT YET YOU APPEAR TO HAVE NO EXPERIENCE.CHANSONI SAAAAAAAAAAAAANA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  33. Imwe bantu who are saying viva Sata, Let’s get serious with national affairs. Isn’t it your same president who was in a pact with HH? Now HH is corrupt? So he wasn’t “allergic” to corruption then? Look at the man he chose to be DPP and prosecute corrupt aliments, the man is a thief who has refused to pay back money owed to DBZ. Look at what he declared before the elections. Ati, “it is funny how MMD president Nevers Mumba is claiming to be taking care of the party when he cannot take care of his hair”. This is a statement coming from the CEO of the Country. That is just pathetic.

  34. With due respect to H.E. Michael C. Sata, I would prefer he concentrates on helping we the youths and the rest of Zambia move out of unemployment and poverty. I wonder how the talk on HH’s wealth and poor hair management by Dr. Mumba would provide 3 meals a day on a poor,youth, man or women’s table. I voted for a man of action may he live up to that.

  35. CLEAR VIOLATION OF THE CONSTITUTION THAT YOU SWORE TO UPHOLD MR HEM-CS,SURELY THE EXECUTIVE INTERFERING WITH THE JUDICIARY.HOW ARE WE GOING TO KNOW THAT YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE BOSS.FROM CADRE-CONSTABLE-COUNCILOR -MP AND NOW PRESIDENT YET YOU APPEAR TO HAVE NO EXPERIENCE.CHANSON SAAAAAAAAAAAAANA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • People, do you even know how things work out in the reall world? am really shocked at some of the comments, this shouldnt even have started now, it should have been employed way before Mwanawasa, during the birth of MMD, when democracy was introduced by the late Kafupi. Every one must declare their daily income, i dont want to repeat myself because i have elaborated how and why somewhere above, getting to you, if you love Zambia you will be interested in knowing whose paying tax and how everyone is making that monie for that BMW, in a real democracy takwaba ati, ummmm balya baliwina, blindly? you have to explain how, kulondola, someone is busy amassing your wealthy you are indirectly giving him your hand, this is why are considered dullo by the west, cos they are more knowledgeable.

  36. Lets be level minded because one day we will be shocked as much as you may support someone leave a benefit of doubt where certain matters are concerned. No one is perfect.

  37. If I was HH, I would take a very deep breath and laugh out very loud so that all neighbours can hear me. What kind of political culture is that? nowonder there are insults day in day out towards government. It is like all jokes to be in government to some people. instaed of concentrating on serious plunder cases by Kabimba,. Nchito, Mmembe and GBM, he is following someone he will never be able to prosecute. It will be a “nole” as ussual. Funny how some people think that a man can only be rich if they stole. Nowonder we are going nowhere as a nation.

  38. HH should also confirm his connections with Glencore. Mwila landa landa fye. HH is an underground crook.

    • Sata should confirm hopw he came into possession of the car he was arrested for by LPM, how and why he abandoned the $27000 at OR Tambo in joburg, and where he got the k2billion he was dishing out to kaponyas in 1999/2000. Nchito should also ask himself why he is not apying back the k14 billion DBZ loan.

  39. HH should also confirm his connections with Glencore. Mwila landa landa fye. HH is an underground crook. Who is Mark Rich?

  40. ANY ONE WHOSE WEALTH SEEMS TO HAVE NO OBVIOUS ORIGIN MUST BE PROBED. IT’S HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS OF HH’s WEALTH. NOT FORGETTING THE RB CLAN OF THIEVES. MUMBA CHEWS WHATEVER HE EATS, IT APPEARS. SO, HE’S THE POOREST OF ALL. HE LOVE POSH AND EXPENSIVE LIFE AND SPENDS ON IT IMMEDIATELY DOSH IS IN HIS HANDS.

  41. It is interesting to think once upon a time HH and MCS went into political partnership. But now the daily chore is to chant each other down…the next thing UPND needs to do is find a sober leader and Garry Nkombo for me fits the bill 2016 he can take the mantle

  42. So if Nevers talks about his rotten teeth ati he has insulted the president. How can someone who has failed to care for his oral hygiene lead a nation? Zambians what have you done? Anyway we await the next swearing in ceremony for more comedy. I am dying with laughter.

  43. I personally knew HH, long before the privatization was carried out. He already had some wealth, of course not as much as today. His riches are started with him owning some shares with private firm he worked for and later that firm was to sold to a few Zambians (including him). He was already at the top of the firm before it was sold, and was getting a lot as managing partner. When privatization started, they (Zambians) already owned this company (locally owned by this time) and it was this local firm (not HH) that was recruited to carry out privatization. Remember, that FTJ also tried to implicate HH, and he was told NO by the special branch as there were no legitimate charges they could get. I think on this one, HH will come out clean, try something else.

  44. HH is the man. The problem with you chaps is that when you graduate from universities you spend more of your money drinking, womanizing and showing off..borrowing and crooning others. By time you retire or lose jobs you are back on the streets. Leave HH alone

  45. Lets not see this as a personal Vandeta, if ba Hakaivotela Humwine has nothing to hide…, well and good, palibe vuto. This should not however be done on one called HH alone, but should be from now on be done on every citizen involved in trading of all sorts.Infact this will creat jobs, you see guys how stupid we are, it’s like we are brain dead, these are the things that are straight forward and should not be taken for granted, we have allowed people to steal and it has now become normal, how do you think the money we get from the banks of the west come from, the donations your NGOs? from the tax we pay here and thats how our friends manage to serve, think mwebantumwe!

    • He has nothing offcourse. Maybe you are confusing HH to RB. HH has dared Sata before to arrest him if he stole months ago. Sata was ziiiii until today. We will see what Nchito will do. Nothing! Yes start with sata, kabimba, GBM, Ncito, Mmembe then RB, then HH (for working hard without telling your friends).

    • This shouldnt be about chochise, lets stay forcused. Think as though you were the care taker of the nation, then you will see sense in all this.

  46. So that meeting Nevers Mumba,HH and RB had in Johannesburg was a conclave of thiefs who have something in common!RB knows he stole from Zambians,Nevers from Zambian embassy in Canada,HH from privatisation.The three of them realised time was catching up with them and that the truth wil soon be revealed and they thought Amsterdam the international conman would protect them from the wrongs.Armsterdam’s interest is to milk these guys out of the stolen money then abandon them.It is a disgrace to have such shameful leaders aspiring to gorvern Zambia.Shame on you Nevers,RB and HH!!

  47. HH mas busy making his money whilst SATA was busy bonking Tresphore Mpundus sister and Suba.

    That is the problem ba SATA Ubuchende…….nabukulu

  48. our beloved presido, why? even if we cannot and will never vote for him, please ignore him. No need for that!!!!!!!!!!!

  49. Not only HH is a thief, his party men are also thief. I personally know his party man Choolwe Beyani, who is a failed politician and an unemployed, has been trying to steal a company which belong to a foreigner, who had to leave Zambia on medical ground and then whenever he tried to come, Beyani created an anti-corruption situation and the man could never come. This foreigner, a personal friend of mine has been in Zambia for the past 20 years and has created hundreds of direct employment. Beyani is now destroying the company which still employs about 40 workers.

    No wonder, the thief leader is always trailed by a thief follower

  50. You need to concentrate on wealth creation not wealth grabbing. HH’s wealth is not enough to keep this country moving. We are sick and tired of your rhetoric and attention diversions. What happened to the Oil and Gas explorations? what about the MFEZ zones?Works to refurbish KK international airport would have commenced by now, What are you doing about the looming mealie meal shortages? Zambian people will not eat HH or Nevers mumba nor would the economy survive because you have appointed another of the many political prostitutes we have in the country. One day you will feel the wrath of the people. Continue to take us for granted. Chiluba thought he could rule for another 50 years look what happened to him. What are your plans Mr President? Hello!! anyone there? awe sure!

  51. President Sata thinking out aloud…..the irony of this all is the UPND MPs standing in front of the president and nodding to every word. Only in Zambia not even Hollywood can top this!!

  52. This is the reason Africans should get rid of the freedom fighting generation of leaders and replace them with younger, economicaly survy generation (technocrats). Our dinasaur leader does not understand how someone has accumulated wealth for himself. He can only attribute it to stealing. It is a shame to have a leader that does not like wealthy people. How will this country develop?

  53. Michael Sata you are such a bloody i d i o t. Your ignorance is breaking records. Why didn’t your mother just throw you in the pit latrine when you were born. Zambia would be better today with any of the opposition leaders than you. You are the worst form of any human being. Your equal is Chama Chamboka! Pray you two meet soon.

  54. Quarreling with success!

    Not everyone’s son can sell dogs for a living when they have a degree in civil engineering!

    Sata, do not judge other people’s sons by the pathetic standards your son set for you. Some other peoples son’s are very hard working, very sober minded and very successful!

  55. We have a dead beat for a president. This man lacks civility, intelligence and basic logic as to why we send kids to school. All our kids are sent to school to become successful citizens in all their endevours. For Sata to condemn a successful citizen then begs the question, why did he send his kids to school, if not to do exactly what HH has done? This man, Sata, is really a bonehead, unfit for the presidency of our beautiful Zambia, only fit for insaka where he can be telling stories for a living! This is an awkward period for Zambia, just when all other nations are focusing in real development issues, we are stuck with a petty minded joker for a president! Please!!!

  56. This is a grand opportunity for HH to be a true role model for all our young people in Zambia. Let him calmly elaborate how he acquired his vast wealth so that the whole nation can be taught wealth creation. Imagine what a force of economic change he will be if he has even 200 people learning to succeed as he has!! On this one, I am with the President but perhaps for different reasons.

  57. It appears tht this country only belongs to a few selected individuals who are close to the president namely Fred Mmembe, Mutembo Nchito & Dr Rajani Mathani in particular. Simply because Fred Mmembe used his mouth-piece (The Post) to campaign for President Sata and Dr Mathani used his money to fund the president’s campaign, does not mean that their dealings are above board. Where does the President get the guts to ask the DPP to investigate HH over his wealth when the DPP has been busy dropping Dr Mathani’s cases in court through Nolles? Is the President suggesting that Dr Mathani is a saint? The President and everybody in the financial sector knows that Dr Mathani and his FBZ have been practising predator lending for a very long time. Today, the President is helping Dr Mathani to grab…

  58. Next president will also be BEMBA and the name is Elias “Chitimukulu Lubemba” Chipimo, for 2016 he will defeat Given Lubinda who is taking over from Sata June 2013.

  59. Umwenso, jealous sana chionkompe ichi, muyero wobe chisata, weshilu we who said you should have alot of money than everyone because you are president because you are exceedingly older than time kit self. Useless , chipresident, tawakwata insoni to talk about hair. It sows you have no agenda for the nation about from diping your nose in the opposition. You have lost all the cases in court and you are yet to lose more, shame on you and your family.

  60. I understand there is a Zambian working for Standard Bank in South Africa who can tell you how HH made his money. The guy did the actual job of valuating some of the companies which sold. For those of us who do not know what happened the best thing would be to shut up

  61. It is very hard not to call Sata an ***** if all he does is parade his idiocy to the nation. What else can we do but to call a spade a spade. I have tried to respect this guy but alas i have failed. The country is suffering due to lack of proper leadership, how can the whole head of state be harrassing his own citizenry. Why such blatant jealousness and hatred for one person.Please concentrate on leading the nation and leave HH alone. There are enough law enforcement agencies who can detect wrong doing

  62. ya i think all these resources the president is spending on investigating HH and planning to spend can be spent on something important like…job creation and the like..HH was CEO for grant thornton at the tender age of 30. As a boss of a privatisation agency there was nothing wrong with him benefing from the commissions they were getting from the sales and the government payments..

  63. Voting for PF was the biggest blunder, even UNIP or MMD were better respectable leaders in their first few years. PF has been a night mare right from the word go. What a shame!

  64. Bwana DPP the simple answer to the president’s question is no. You do not prosecute the presidents opponents for the heck of it, There must be probable cause. And no being of a different political persuasion, age, gender, profession, ethnic background, skin color are not in themselves probable cause. If we must open Pandora’s box, then the President must be willing to have his own passed engagements and those of his cabinet subjected to the same measure scrutiny.

  65. Our late President Levy Patrick Mwanawasa made Sata popular by remanding him in prison for 40 days all because of bad advice he was getting from Mmembe and Nchito who had a bone to chew with Sata at the time.Mmembe went to Levy and told him that he had evidence that send Sata rot in jail and Levy was quick to buy that and remember Levy also had a bone to grind with Sata that started along time when both of them served under FTJ.Little did Levy realise that he was marketing Sata and by the time all the charges against Sata failed to materialise because Xavier refused to testify against Sata alot of damage had already been done and Sata was a hero.This is what is happening to HH,Mmembe is using Sata to fight HH but Sata does not know that he is marketing HH the way Levy marketed him.

  66. mr president, under5 ‘s wealthy does not need any investigation or search. The man stole period! The post the other time told the whole world he stole even the house he stays in from lima bank, under5 threatened to sue the post and that was all up to date.
    The guy stole period! He never works for anything thats why he is bedfellows with neverlands(nevers mumba). HH stole privatisation money, neverlands stole tithe.

  67. Ati Nevers Mumba can’t take care of his hair? what about your teeth Mr. President? Chek your self out before you start making unnecessary useless statements on a big forum.

  68. Ukwa having sleepless nights over HH’s money.
    Don’t vote for such a backward pfool in future and save Zambia from perpetual embarrassment.

  69. HH has no obligation whatsoever, to start explaining his wealth or giving any further declaration of the same from what he gave when he was vying for the Presidency. It is up to his accuses to charge him with whatever crime(s) they allege he committed and adduce evidence.
    By the way, it is alarming that a President can pre-occupy himself with leaders of opposition parties to this extent – even mentioning the state of one’s hair! Does Nevers even have hair? I haven’t quite noticed. Sata declared 7 guns as a representation of how far he went in school – grade 7! And that perhaps is an insult to geniune grade 7’s.

  70. it has started i wee DPP endeshako. This is the reason why HH doesn’t like Sata. So mwalaumfwa ati twaya ku UN for press conference. Time yatasho yafika.

  71. To imagine we will have Sata until 2016 is simply too much. And those UPND MPs on parade, surely isn’t troubling to your consciences that your new employer literally scandalizing your leader in such a reckless and bizarre manner? Fellow bloggers have. U noticed that clearly no member of the presidential “ensemble” seem to enjoy their leader’s tongue lashing antics ? They look agonized, & stiff and seem to be holding their breath like they ve swallowed a bee. Sata’s trying to imitate Obama’s tactic of questioning Romney’s wealth. His handlers must tell him it won’t work under these circumstances here.

  72. HH is being haunted for his riches becos he is a tonga. According to Sata nobody in Zambia should be rich unless he is a Bemba. Why doesn’t he query the riches of GBM who it is known he never got his riches through satanic methods but through corruption, Kambwili got his riches through scrap metals but after destroying railwaylines leading to abadoned mines. HH is being haunted by Sata becos he is a Tonga and better educated and a professional than a Grade 6 and constable which Sata attained before he was rescued by KK.
