Patriotic Front (PF) Deputy Secretary General Bridget Atanga has with immediate effect expelled the party’s Assistant Secretary General Political Sikwiindi Situla for been linked to the Fourth Republic Party.
Mrs Atanga said this in a letter addressed to Mr Situla which was also copied to President Michael Sata, PF Secretary General Wynter Kabimba, National Chairperson and the PF Chairperson for Disciplinary Committee.
She said Mr Situla’s expulsion is in connection with the letter she wrote to him on October 14 where she suspended him and asked him to exculpate himself within 24 hours over the revelations that he is linked to a parallel structure within the PF known as the Fourth Republic Party.
Mrs Atanga said to her surprise, on the same date, Mr Situla was quoted on the Zambia National Broadcasting Corporation (ZNBC) mains news to have said that the suspension was null and void saying he reports directly to the President and not the Deputy Secretary General.
“I wonder which ‘President Mr Situla is referring to because President Sata cannot tolerate such indiscipline. I don’t know maybe he reports to another ‘President’, I wrote a letter to him but he decides to answer through the media,” Mr Atanga said.
She said that Mr Situla was not operating from the party secretariat but that he was operating at PF Secretary General Wynter Kabimba’s law firm.
She said it was unfortunate that Mr Situla had continued to issue tribal statements, which was not allowed, as this could cause further divisions.

She challenged him to name the Permanent Secretaries and Ministers that were allegedly spearheading tribalism in the Government.
“This kind of talk is deadly, we don’t want blood-shed in the country, let him mention which Ministers and Permanent secretaries that are tribal, let him tell the public,” she said.
The PF Deputy Secretary General said she therefore finds Mr Situla to be very indiscipline and has used the powers instilled in her as Deputy Secretary General to expel him (Mr Situla) from the PF as Assistant Secretary General Political.
Mrs Atanga has since wished Mr Situla all the best in his future endeavours.

Oweeee drama in PF. Who is next to go GBM or WK?
I didn’t know Situla was a Chinese guy. So PF is multi-racial party but tribal.
The is a saying, “A fish starts rotting from the head”
Madam Atanga, your actions are like cutting off the tail of the fish when the head is rotting. Very soon you will realise that the whole fish is rotten and it will be too late..
Time has will tell
only time will tell
Why not the founder by the name of… we all know who, going around doesnt get you anywhere, please cut to the chase and slit him open in full view, whats all this delaying tactics all about, buying time? We know whom we want gone, am not moved by this if anything am disgusted period!
Just keep watching this space. Fred MuMmembe’s wings are expertly being chopped off.
Next will be Wynter suspended and expelled within 24 hours. Order more popcorns please.
Many people do not realize that adult stem cells play a key role in the natural renewal of your body and are essential for the maintenance and repair of organs and tissue throughout your lifetime.
Stem cell therapy is an intervention strategy that introduces new adult stem cells into damaged tissue in order to treat disease or injury. Many medical researchers believe that stem cell treatments have the potential to change the face of human disease and alleviate suffering.
Due to factors such as age, stress, pollution and poor diet, there is a reduction in the release and activity of adult stem cells, which may lead to a decline in the natural ability of your body to maintain optimal health.

NO RULES AND PROCEDURES PARTY! Am talking about the PF. No charge of indiscipline, no disciplinary case hearing, but just a verdict by ONE PERSON – just the same way she would fire her MAID at home!!!
Big Brother Zambia, no need for subscribing to DSTE. We have drama available everyday. Stay tuned for upcoming events. The drama continues.
Ki mifilifili mazazi kaufela likebenga ze!
What do you say,please in english.
Nga Winta ena mukamutanfya lilali?
Atanga once said she cant suspend winter coz he is her superior. What she has actually done to Situla is a wake up call to people who are superior to the S.G to the needful. that letter contained two names of senior P.F Officials. The committee will do a service to emulate her stance before we are believe the cartel story from ZWD
Lol! Awaiting moderation for blogging in my mother Lozi mother tongue? Too bad my Bemba is not that good otherwise I would have blogged in your mother tongue!
The is no honour among thieves…..
Indeed, no honor among retards!!!
A very useless party with useless leaders….
@ Sepo, it is not strange to get that response “waiting for moderation” . we experience it sometimes and we don’t go blaming our tribes or others. You reasoning is indeed pathetic and i wonder what you benefited from schooling if not just learning to be a Vandal.
@nostradamus, you are fonny (funny)! (phoney)
Yes very funny. Why show her with a Chinese instead of Sikwindi?
eeishi,this case sounds similar to that of chikwelete when he also insurbodinately answered Gay scot through dead end be see that he was also apointed like him.ooh! Situla has no bemba forest on his side.the reason he has been fastly removed.
Gay Scott!
It is high time moles were shown the door. BRAVO Ms Atanga!
Bravo but I would advise her to hire a 24 hour security militia. Situla is in the same faction as the armory man.
This saga has been created by no other person than Sata. The poor woman has been just caught up.
Sata is still stuck on the round -about going round and round failing to find the right exit way out on the PF in-fights.
He is not thinking about how he can make this party strong going forward. He is looking at ways he can find a Safety Net, while he slowly escapes from the political platform, due to his illness and lack of fire which has really surprised his followers. Though, we commented time after time before elections that he was fake without a vision for Zambia. We’ve now been vindicated.
Cont…
Cont…
The insulted us when we said these are empty tins making alot of noise… the Ubwato project is now in free fall
How on earth can you have a party with no single person with basic instincts of leadership?!!!
The are a few things common between Jacob Zuma and Sata
1. Uneducated
2. No leadership skills
3. No managerial skills
5. Womanisers
6. Liars
7. Tribalist’s
8. Don’t like educated people
9. A chain of kids
10. Have always lived on tax payers money
11. Inferiority complex
12 Deception (removal of Mbeki vs removal of Banda)
The list goes on….. that in part explains why what is happening is South Africa is exactly a mirror of what is happening in Zambia.
From the time he walked into Plot 1, he took a stance to listen from dunderheads and cadres. You cannot rule the nation based on emotions raised by hooliganism from the streets. Thank you Kabimba for confirming that your party is the most undisciplined, Zambia has ever had.
It also appears, he is in a hurry to make as much money as he can from his monthly wages, judging by the percentage increment he has offered himself.
One wonders if the party constitution allows the Deputy SG to act in that manner when the incumbent is within the jurisdiction. I thought the normal thing to do would be to report to the SG and recommend the necessary form of action. Anyway, with current problems in the party maybe the SG is on suspension as well! STOP THE CIRCUS! IT SICKENS US.
who deserves suspension?GBM,WK,Kapata,Kambwili,chikwelete or Situla.because the above produced faulty statements.shame on you situla, maybe you are not a bemba.
It is high time moles were shown the door. BRAVO Ms Atanga!U real tribalists that preach against Bembas,u are really demonic.
iwe chi,l, color the real demon is you failing to see the worst tribalism practiced by your dunderhead . unprecedented naked tribalism never ever seen in the history of our country
Way to go Atanga bravo pf next wynter,scoot,and chuubwe
‘chuubwe’ is already in trouble but ‘scoot’ has nothing do to with the Fourth….
These *****s are taking us like we are small kids. Why doesn’t the bitch also suspend Mwanaachambwa. If this Situla is guilty so is Mwanaachambwa. These is all rubbish.
As entertaining as this is- it is also just as extremely sad. These buffons who lied and conned their way into governship are now preoccupied with politicking and embarassing our nation internationally. Meanwhile pertinent issues such as striking workers, rising cost of living, erratic supplies of medicine etc are left unattended to. Thank you President Satan and ur demon cabinet.
oweeeeee eli lwanya….Pffffffff. too much disorder bakapala
Zambia is better off without Sata or his Yatas.
How I wish we had no president, no MPs , no parliament.
Governor General
HH , Elias, Milupi, Nevers or even goat roaming at state house will be better president for Zambia,
How dare this woman destabilise our well formulated parallel structure within PF? We will first condemn her in our editorial, then we will ask our boy George Chellah to issue a press statement “from the president” reversing this expulsion. We are fighting the “tribal and corrupt” clique.
We run this country!
AND WE ARE THE POST, MUTEMBO NCHITO,RAJANI MATANI, ……….
I can see a Big invisible hand in all this…will soon see it
All the things Atanga is accusing situla of (eg tribalism and corruption in PF) were said by Wynter, and there are papers that quoted him. If Situla is a sacrificial lamb because of the fear of Kabimba, then PF is not going anywhere. So if there is principle in Atanga, then she should charge WYNTER with the same case as Situla
@man b.i dont understand this as wel.maybe atanga mistook situla for kabimba.
Good. Reading between the lines, this blow is actually aimed at Wynter. Situla I gather operates from his office. Atanga has made a bold move and it looks like she is ready to take on Kabimba.
Please do not rush to have Wynter fired just yet. But that’s where we are heading to.
All of MuMmembe cronies will be booted out of the Party before the end of 2013.
@oldrugsout.all mmembe’s cronies wil be fired by 2013.this can’t happen in your life time.
SIKWINDI SITULA is in the wrong here. He shouldn’t have gone to ZNBC to start challenging Atanga’s authority in such a childish manner. That is why Atanga has just shown him who is boss.
This is a lesson to all junior politicians. It doesn’t mean that everytime a newspaper or broadcasting station reporter approaches you then you have to say something. Clever politicians say: “NO COMMENT”. But in a country like Zambia where men gossip more than women and where having a loud mouth is respected more than having a working brain, we have people releasing statements in the press everyday and carelessly and without thinking carefully about what they are saying. It is the same route Chikwelete is going: he will be expelled before district elections. He is already on suspension.
Boys to Boys acts awaiting a drum beat to make a Boys to Men transformation. PF has seen the light in a tunnel, unfortunately, it is an on coming train.
@ Mwembeshi. You are spot on, though that is just one side of the story. The root of the whole issue is the Fourth Republic Party. Even if Situla exculpated, the offence he committed is treason to pf and he would still have been fired eventually. THE ONLY SOLUTION TO PF’S WOOES NOW IS EXPULSION OF KABIMBA.
She wants the list of tribalists in PF, ok:
1. Sata
2. Chikwanda
3. GBM
4. Chimbwili
5. PS Mwamba
6. Kapata
etc
This what happened to FTJ vs Zambians. He challenged Edith and patel to bring evidence of their allegations. They brought in Zamtrop account. So these Chaps expelling themselves is good because we will hear what we never heard
its not just lozi, LT moderates anything and everything…lozi, bemba, tonga, soli, lenje & ngoni.
its not just lozi, LT moderates anything and everything…lozi, bemba, tonga, soli, lenje & ngoni. The level of moderation by lt scares me a lot.
Am a bemba from kasama and i admire kabimba and the post but am surprised at the number of mistakes they made in trying to sell kabimba to the electorates am not against the idear of elevating mr kabimba coz as far as am concerned mr kabimba stood a better chance in pf but the post who were supposed to sell him have done more harm to him i cant believe all this mistakes are coming from post coz even if they manage to go through this storm do they really think mr kabimba can get any thing from bemba land after all these insults? and if he fails in this land were will he get enough votes to reach 50% plus one the post knew all these things
Atanga is digging her own grave after expelling situla she is next to be expelled as she does not belong to the tribal Bemba clique. The godfather of tribalism sata only wants a Bemba to take over but with m’member heating theM left, right and canter by 2016 pf will only remain a small tribal party in mpika. m’member knows how to destroy.
