THE Patriotic Front (PF) choice of the candidate for the forthcoming Mansa by-election has taken a new twist with some constituency officials and members rejecting the recent public claim by former MMD area Member of Parliament Chrispin Musosha that President Michael Sata wanted him to re-contest the seat under the ruling party ticket.
In a statement released in Mansa yesterday, the signatories have instead demanded that the PF adopt Mr James Kabweta who is a well known founder member and organiser of the party and had worked for the ruling party since inception.
The signatories contended that Mr Musosha was on record as having been among the top MMD leaders who made life difficult for the PF, its leaders and members when the now ruling party was in the opposition.
“We are hereby compelled to make the following joint declaration that we unreservedly reject the said claim by Mr Musosha with the contempt it deserves because his anti-PF stance and violence are well documented countrywide,” they said.
They further noted that Mr Kabwita was a popular PF founder, organiser and leader who even offered his personal business premises to be used as the operational and organisational centre for the PF in the province under difficult circumstances.
“We are solidly in support of the candidature of Mr Kabwita because he is the well known founder member of our party who sacrificed a lot for the PF,” they said.
Last week Mr Musosha announced at a public rally in Mansa addressed by Vice President Guy Scott his resignation from the MMD to join the PF saying that infact President Sata wanted him to recontest the Mansa Central seat under the PF ticket.
Haha,the PF cookie keeps crumbling as they fight amongst themselves.Keep on please,i like this PF movie.
It will be a Mangani factor…. Sata & Kabimba should stay out of Luapula, that province never-ever accepts intimidation.
iwe Nostradamus where is Sata?? i thought you saw him off at the airport afew days ago
This is beginning to sound like there has been a major break out of Block D at Chainama Hills Hospital.
We need latest news rather than this PF infighting. Very backward. Unfortunately, PF cadres themselves are blind, deaf and suffer from memories lapses. The effect is that once they mishear something they just insult.
We are enjoying watching them cringe in shame and embarassment….
…..awe mwandi, PF cadres are the ones LOL!!!!
Ba Sata, let your preferable candidate,Musosha, contest in your constituency(Mpika)but PF central committee of Mansa will decide the candidate they want not ifyabu dictator. Your Excellency, the pipo of Mansa central constituency are the one who will vote not you. Therefore, respect their freedom of choice period!
well said!! PF need to open up her eyes! even if pipo to b MPs were to finish in Mansa Musosha ena teti! i say teti i cnt vote for him. what development did he bring when he was an MP in MMD??
Dr Chilufya is the right candidate for PF
i conquer with you CK. Dr. Chilufya (owner -Henry Court Yard) is level headed, he is the right candidate for mansa central………if he doesn’t stand then Mansa is doomed again
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
Dr chilufya is the best candidate
Why are Sata’s intentions being rejected suddenly?
If PF wants to be taught a lesson in Mansa Central let them go ahead on imposing this traitor and opportunist called Musosha. This man is well known for his treachery here in Mansa. As for Kabwita admittedly, he is a very loyal and committed founder member of the PF, in fact none in his his/her state of mind can deny this fact. But the man is not parliamentary material to represent Mansa Central. He has a serious problem of uncontrollable alcoholism. Even children in Mansa knows him for that. This may seriously work against PF. As for Dr Chilufya, everyone will tell you in Mansa Central that even in the 2011 general elections Dr. Chilufya Chitalu only lost because of the party on which he stood (MMD). If Dr Chilufya had contested as an independent the late Sakeni was going to kiss dust.
No.Let them go ahead with Musosha so that we again laugh at them just as it was in Mkaika.
MMD is winning the seat. Cockroaches are being flushed out.
Time for Real Change has come.
The era has come when taking for granted people at grass root level has come to its knees. Interesting period indeed….VIVA the people fight for what you know and see and want
PF respect what people on the grass root wants
Musosha is a foolish and dull politician – how can he go on the podium and tell people that the President wants him to stand on PF ticket? U resign in the morning and expect to be adopted by lunch time- boy oh boy those days are gone! the original PF members won’t tolerate that any more. Musosha just continue running your road construction business with Chiwala your partner
If PF lose this by-eletion then we will know finished they are. Even failing to win a sympathy vote?
I encourage Sata and PF to field Musosha so that they lose the seat to MMD. What has gone wrong with PF? You have also started behaving like MMD while in power. Leave the people of Mansa central to field their own person period.
Peace and Prosperity to Mother Zambia.
Nkanshi emano…..
we want one of us in mansa viva Dr chilufya,Musoshais just wasting his time,he was MP for the same constituence,Mansa is this time for DR CHITALU CHILUFYA
If PF instead of fighting they can concentrate on building what they have. Very soon it will be 2015 and they will have nothing to show for their term except fighting among themselves. They think that manoeuvring against each other in public trying to show who is clever than the other is a good thing, not knowing that people are just laughing at them. Who cares whether GBM is winning over Kabimba or vice-versa….the majority of people don’t care, they are actually happy that PF is falling apart. People are already so very tired of PF such that by 2016 PF won’t even be a factor in the elections. Some of us have always wished them the best so that they deliver on their policies, but it seems there is no leader. Where is HEMCS?????????????
Cilemoneka kwati these PF guys don’t know the people of Luapula. These people are arrogantly revolutionary, ask Sir William Welensky, KK, Chiluba and Bwezani they will all tell you ifyo abena Luapula Ntondo tabakokola kucinja. Don’t take the People of Mansa for granted, they are capable of embarrassing you big time. MMD made a similar mistake thinking just because Kafupi came from Musangu then the people of Luapula were going to follow blindly. People of Mansa need development not mere politicking. Listen to them and you will them on your side otherwise what you’re pushing for is tantamount to political sucuide, and you know what Luapula mean to PF. Epo mpelele!
The people know what they want; but more importantly what they DON’T want.
Musosha LISHILU(MAD *****).He is lying the President has not asked him.to contest in Mansa because the President is aware of his unstable mental condition. Ba Kabwita is a party organiser but we all know that he cant run and win in Mansa Central. The general population there has no respect for him. He drinks like, sorry, infact more than a fish. There is another fellow being floated from lusaka. The guy who drives USHI 1. No problem with the guy because people would have very little against him because they hardly know him. He is well know in Mansa and Luapula among the party cadres but thats all. The trump card for the PF is Doctor CHILUFYA. Perfect gentleman well behaved educated with an already established electorate behind him. Gud news is Guy Scot got his app directly. VIVA PF.
lets whoch and see
even the late Sakeni was just taken from the MMD to harness the juice he never sweated for. wats the problem with political leaders? they always look at their relatio ns and friendship at the expense of the genuine members.
Musosha is a stupidity womanizer sleeping with young girls allover.
Chrispin Musosha wena iyoo…there better people in Mansa who can recontest…Yashani?
Ba musosha ni ba Wesu nomba niba crook
lt hurts even hearing the name being mentioned in the pf Mansa candidace. kanshi who has bewitched the party i have supported since 2001? Please don’t even bring Musosha’s name to this. These are jackals and wolves causing confusion in pf. Ilukeni!
We want to see the people who say PF is a tribalist in the Northern, Luapula and Muchnga this time. The truth of the matter is that umwela wabwela mu UPND and MMD. Mansa guys let us see if you are going on principles and not on issues of tribalism.
