Suspected PF cadres this morning stormed the Flava FM studios radio station and demanded that the program where outspoken Catholic priest Father Frank Bwalya was supposed to feature be stopped.
The suspected cadres stormed the station demanding that Fr. Bwalya does not go ahead with the program.
According to reports Father Frank Bwalya has been harassed in the process as well. The cadres also poured opaque beer on the catholic priest now turned politician
Zambia Police have been informed informed of the developing situation at the radio station.
Father Frank Bwalya formed a political party after he resigned his position on the ZESCO board as Chairperson in a move he said was meant to reclaim his voice, claiming that President Michael Sata had lost it and that time had come for Zambians to start waiting for the next messiah.
Father Bwalya said that President Sata was no longer the same caring person Zambians knew before he became president.
LT…You said “Suspected”. I hope they are not our people.Otherwise no one is above the law as long as they have misbehaved,cage them.
There is need for professionalism in public service institutions.
When truth is presented to a honestly mistaken person, two things are possible either they will cease to be mistaken or cease to be honest.
There are two most possible situations that takes place when a human being makes a mistake, is either you immediately correct the mistakes or you make more and more mistakes (when you have ceased to be honest) and eventually fail to correct them.
This is the case with Michael Sata and the Patriotic Front – PF. The reality has tormented Michael Sata and his PF, that running a country is not as easy as they thought. And the honest people we k
In a police state ZED over the years the party in POWER has the boldness to walk into a church, radio station, market place, funeral place and beat up people…we have seen this in UNIP, MMD and now PF days…equally bearing in mind that PF is indeed UNIP, MMD (Sata, Scott, Danial, etc…).
Does the president really care for Zambia and peace in our land?? He has to stop this kind of ‘Bandaism’ behavior…
Today I looked up Micheal Sata’s life, educational and work profile…couldn’t find anything anywhere written about where he spent his early days from the time he was born to being a policeman…a huge gap…am beginning to think he&FTJ have one thing in common…Is there anything to hide…could anyone please point me in some direction??
He was baptised in opaque beer,chibuku.Leave Mr Bwalya alone PF you are just adding gas to fire.
Sad noting that our illiterate cadres have started taking the law into their own hands.This does not reflect the true position and image of our party.We will try to remove the bad eggs from within our midst.Few bad individuals can`t project the actual image of the mighty Patriotic front.Its like seeing a black man kill a white couple and conclude that all blacks are savages.There is no organization without bad characters.Aluta continua !!!
With all the violence happening in Zambia, what is baffling is the President’s silence. How can a leader of a country be this quite when some of these incidents have the ability to put a country in war.
Well this speaks true to Sata’s heart, worship me or whatever happens to you i don’t want to know, you days are numbers Mr.
Iyo kwena ichi ichachitika nachiwama. Frank Bwalya himself who even slaughtered a chicken at a rally in mpatamatu just to see to it that thugs take leadership of the country despite warnings from Chanda Chimba. I am happy that he is testing the bitter side of his own medicine. I congratulate the PF cadres for baptizing him with beer. I am sure he can’t complain after all he has got no regrets whatsoever for campaigning for PF. This is really nice. I am enjoying it!!
@Bupe bwa kwa Lesa
You’ve exhibited the low level of thinking that has landed the country in this position. All you see is Fr. bwalya being punished.
I despair.
Your leader is the begotten son of Satan. Nothing good can ever come out of this evil and vile man. His mission in Zambia is DESTRUCTION. Zondwa must Go!
This is not good news,,, these condom PF cadres have baptised father bwalya with chibuku shake shake… sure!….childern of the devil himself at work
Ndobo, you really love condoms eeh. I know why, because you sick because of your promiscuity especially that you have multi partners. Most of you married to the opposite colour are like that. Bitter all the time. I know that your wife is the bread winner, so your role is to read about Zambia that you miss a lot and pretend that you don’t. That is why walipanwina namatwi ku Zed tefyo?
fow mouthed cobra snake honestly someone who is happy to be called king cobra he is not a normal person because a snake is even more bad hearted than a LION atleast a LION can spare u wen it is satisfied
Fr Bwalya is slowly becoming a threat to PF and its minions. I wonder why PF is scared of him? As for the PF cadres, thats money in your pockets!
When its PF thugs they see no evil and no need to take action but when its RB or Robert Amsterdam or Nevers Mumba they can clearly see alot of stuff- even imaginary stuff.
Zambia in the sun!
@nubian
You looking for work? I didn’t realize Zambia National Tourist Board is hiring.
@High Speed Balack OMama; Hands of my Nuby or else…BIG WANTED!
Solola Bye!
are you sure? Let him make an attempt on these bye elections and you will see how he will lose badly. Let people like HH speak not this former man of God.
@ Solola Bye
Can’t really decipher what you’re trying to say.
Don’t waste your time, I’m not in your league.
I wonder why these cadres for PF have become so big headed? It is a reflection of a political organisation of kaponyas and minions. I fear we are going back to vigilantes of 1980-1989. Who ever spoke rubbish about KK was taken by air. I wonder in this age and time PF will get away with this mentality for long…
BYYYYYYE AIR AND K.B(BEATING PEOPLE AT THEIR BACK).
SAD SAD. ANYWAY I HAVE SEEN AND KNOWN THAT YOU CAN NOT CHANGE THE KAPOYAS. EVEN SOME CADRES HERE, THEY JUST INSULT. I WONDER IF THEY EVEN EARN MONEY IF US WHO POSITIVE MINDED STOP BLOGGING. ALL OF THEM WILL JUST SUPPORT PF AND CONDEMN OPPOSING VIEWS WHETHER RIGHT OR WRONG.
LET FINISH WRITING MY THESIS. I HAVE A SERIOUS RESEARCH PRESENTATION NEXT WEEK, JULY ANOTHER WORK AUSSIE, END JULY DUBLIN, OCTOBER NEWZEALAND, NOVEMBER USA, DECEMBER SOUTH AFRICA AND JANUARY GERMANY.
@italian-presidential material
Good luck with your thesis and presentations.
Suspected PF of-course.Looks to me that some parties wants to take advantage of the situation and use their cadres to misbehave while pretending to be pF.
EWE CHI PF U ARE STILL DOUBTING THAT MILES SAMPA IS SPONSORING THESE CADRES TO BEAT UP PEOPLE
i think you need to have your head examined we all know this is the doing of pf no one else
we mbwa we, you are just jealous of handsome Sampa. Miles would NEVER even kill a fly.
Scarely stuff, PF is not kidding you know !!! Not the Zambia I used to know
This is exactly how the MMD cadres led by William Banda became big headed and went free! I remember Sata condemning condemning condemning everyday! But today, Sata ni shhhhhhh!!!
MMD cadres never beat up Zambians while praying in the house of God, never stormed in studios harassing people, never beat up people at funerals or caused deaths of cadres from other parties. PF Sata cadres follow what their boss is characterised with —-violence. In Matero Sata harassed and beat up people with Nakawala. Sata is a violent man, so is PF party and its cadres.
They should have also poured katata on him.Former father bwalya is a hypocrite and should just get married.He’s appetite for money is not different from that of nervous mumba.The love of money is the root of all evil.He’s not doing it for the suffering masses but for his pocket and selfish ambitions.God will expose him soon.
You make a semi-literate monkey whose IQ is lower than that of a bacteria to run the county and you expect us to move forward,for as long as that urine bag carrying imbecile is in power forget about any development,people who behave as if they never knew sata’s character piss me off!
Have respect for elders young man.No wonder you children of nowadays are not living long.Your morals and sense of judgement has gone to the wind.Smh
I think your own judgement has been proven impaired time and time again on this site.
BWALYA DESERVES THIS TREATMENT FOR HAVING SUPPORTED PF IN THE FIRST PLACE.
OTHERS WILL ALSO FACE THE SAME FATE.
Right on, you reap what you sow! You make a bed, lye in it and enjoy its confort!
AGREE.
BOOMERANG GOES BACK TO THE THROWER.
Chindix cz other pipo ponox!!
Yuck. Illiterate and uncouth person, you!
Now this is the PF i know!!, this behavior has blessings from the leaders. I dont think ZP will do anything, just like the immigration officers, they are working under instructions from above.
Willie Nsanda once went to Radio Icengelo with thugs and hounded out Michael Sata when he just formed PF. Today, Nsanda is among the major beneficiaries of the loot after PF ascended to power. I will not be surprised if those cadres who harassed Father Bwalya end up as his supporters a few months before the 2016 elections.
Believe me those are MMD cadres they change camp just like ministers.who ever comes if UPND or Narep they will switch camp.”we are all in government to eat” .
And it just keeps quiet. Ati man of action, no mention on BIGOCA, no mention on the violence in Livingstone and people continue supporting it. What kind of leadership is this mwebantu?
The president has more important duties than comment on trivial matters.
Name those important issues he’s dealing with – I dare you. Go on, don’t be a coward hiding behind a computer screen. Educate us on duties more important than the few Dobo has mentioned.
Ha ha ha ha ha hoooooooo! That bowowla baptised in opaque beer oh man John the baptist would be jealous. OK sorry, man, even I don’t support him. I’m ashamed if PF cadres did, they should be stopped or be punished that I don’t support violence. Or if bowla or LT framed them, then it’s from hhyena or black mamba’s pocket money.
If indeed these guys are PF , then let me warn you PF govt that I voted for you for a change in the way politics are done, but if you will continue in this barbaric behaviour, then just know that you are losing support so quickly, further it implies that us who voted for you in 2011, will not in 2016. Who is Father Bwalya? why cant you just let him exercise his right to rant? PF you are disappointing us. Please please stop this rot PF. Don’t even respond to Frank Bwalya he is nothing.
Peace and Prosperity to Mother Zambia.
How many more “suspected” incidents do you need to see?
George Kunda’s funeral
Mama Betty’s funeral
Kabwata rally
Livingstone by-elections
Mufumbwe by-election
BIGOCA
Others may want to add to the list.
My point is not that PF has a monopoly on violence. MMD and UNIP pulled the same sh’t for decades! Still, as you say, people DID “vote for change” and does no good for any Zambian to put their head in the sand or accept the PF’s response as adequate even if you somehow believe they are not responsible (like our “friend” Saulosi).
Look no further than the President who has chosen to remain silent rather than condemn the violence (even in a general sense) each time this kind of thing happens! Is that the kind of leadership and change you voted for or that Zambia…
Fr Bwalya runing a headless NGO is far frm a country tht is guided by policies.Yr ranting Bwalya is wont take u any where be guaranteed.U failed at ZEZSCO now u want blame others.U bor-bred critic wht decision can u make?Decsion making & unbridled critique re separate.Knw yr skill & concentrate.Dont overrate yrself u may extinct the industry u ve opted is realy dangerous uncomparable to the pulpit.U traitor yr pocket & jealous shall consume u to the gr…v!
@dabwiso
So you think Bwalya should not exercise his democratic right to speak, or form a political party? That he should be harrassed when he does?
By the same token, you are free to not give him your vote. FREE – geddit?
Which part are you having problems understanding?
And spend some time and go to school, your writing is appalling.
There are GED programs in community colleges here in the US.
( General Educational Development is a program for people who haven’t completed secondary school – just thought I’d explain for the benefit of non-US bloggers)
AM RELIABLY INFORMED THAT ITS FORMER FATHER BWALYA WHO ORGANISED THESE THUGS AND THEN BLAME IT ON PF CADRES SO AS TO GAIN POLITICAL MILLEAGE/POPULARITY AND SEEMIGLY PORTRAY TO THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY THAT HE IS A THREAT KULI BA NOAH.HE’S USING ALL SORTS OF METHODS TO MAKE HIMSELF LOOK POPULAR BUT IT WILL NOT TAKE HIM ANYWHERE.HH WASNT HARRARSED,MPOMBO HASNT BEEN HARRASED SO WHO IS HE?
Useless…. you must be from Muchinga to defend PF thugs
Press your CAPs Lock Key. Or arrow, dependent on your device. Thank You for complying.
If Flava FM does not have capacities, including security guards, then Flava FM the Police will have no choice but move in. Any media outlet needs some form of safety arrangements. How can Flava FM fail to arrest criminals? That is shameful. Try CCTV to film any intruders. That way, CID will have additional basic information to assist with investigation.
My brother it is almost three weeks after the BIGOCA attacks and fully armed with video footage from ZNBC how many people have been arrested by ZP? It has been months since photos of PF cadres attacking a UPND rally in Kabwata were published and how many people have been brought to book? For as long as the perpetrators are PF cadres nothing will happen to them. Ms. Nawakwi reported Chris Chalwe (ex-MMD now PF) for threatening her with rape in 2011. To date, the police have never formally arrested him. If any of these deeds were by opposition cadres by now their leaders would have been arrested.
FLAVA FM does have CCTV & Zambia Police have been invited to review the footage.Mukuba Pension house has 24 hour security services.
you cant mix God’s work with worldly things, he is yet to see more because this is the new path he has choosen
When you are a Christian and you also work isn’t that mixing God’s work with worldly things? Governments exist even in the Church. It is the duty of every well meaning Christian to fight for the plight of the poor and that is what Jesus did for the lepers and others, shunned by the Jews. Even in the Bible, the Word of God does not say do not serve in Government. Please help me with a verse that says that, so I learn if there is one.
chalo bantu you are big *****. Zambia doesnt need stupid people like you
You reap what you sow! Father Bwalya fought so hard to get rid of MMD, a regime where he enjoyed his freedom of speech and association, to have the PF voted and come into power. Isn’t this what he wanted for himself and other Zambians? Serves him damn right!
Welcom!
(*sigh*)
So William Banda is a saint after all.
As long as pf is in power, the police will never do their job properly.
I wish the police would get hold of those thugs, whoever they were, and deal with them according to the law! Free expression must be protected and no one should be allowed to muzzle another, regardless of divergent views espoused, as long as no violence is instigated thereby.
Dont cry. You sired PF. THE POST is next in receiving the snake vernon. Membe will cry one day. Sata is not normal.
This is what you get when the Kaunda and Sata alliance gets stronger and stronger. Kaunda is an angry old man still bitter about being kicked out with his evil UNIP and now has teamed up with Sata with similar ideologies. There is more to come. The solution is to kick out Sata and his PF/UNIP before people start killing each other.
My president is this what they have done to you?
Being ruled by uncivilised and uneducated people is dangerous. A lot of people have died at the hands of the PF cadres yet we still have people in the country still supporting them. Its really appalling how we can sink so low as zambians. We were once a well mannered cultured people and one wonders where this stupidity came from
The former priest has simply overrated himself. Period. And in a blind and desperate attempt to attract attention goes to stir the hornet’s nest on the Copperbelt, knowing fully well the savage nature of Zambian politics. Plain stupidity or dangerous desperation is my take for this sort of approach from Frank. Only hotheads like him and Nevers (got near similar treatment at Chisokone market). Time will surely come when one can be loud mouthed against the PF on CB and that time is NOT now. You dont need to be a rocket scientist to figure out that! You just need to have your feet on the ground and not leave with your head in the clouds dreaming/intoxicated about being state President in 2016
It won’t be long before SATA himself starts slapping people himself. Father Bwalya, I still insist like I did before that you should apologize firstly to the majority of Zambians and secondly to the opposition groups in Zambia for having supported a Kaponya Govt. Their actions will probably drive you closer to doing exactly that. The chicken you slaughtered previously during MMD rule has come to haunt you. The worse is still coming and then the worst will come.
back to UNIP times the by-air period. low caliber government ,same stuff Mugabe does send his people to beat up people while the country is sinking in poverty
Let all Zambians listen to Dante Saunders analysis on the subsides. Indeed the PF government though it was very easy to run government, now they have realised how difficult it is. Fellow Zambians I sorry for having supported the change of government, and we should teach Ukwa a lesson in 2016. Naya sana.
He is a threat to PF because he knows them better than HH
