Robert Chikwelete has charged that he has not been suspended from the party.

Mr Chikwelete said in an interview that it is unfortunate that PF Deputy Secretary General Bridget Atanga could issue suspensions at will.

“As far as I know, am still an active member of this party. I have not been suspended,” Mr Chikwelete said.

Mr Chikwelete maintained that he had not committed any wrongs.

He said he planned to write to Mrs Atanga to exculpate himself from the perceived transgressions.

“I will write to the Deputy SG and explain the issues that have arisen but I still don’t recognise my suspension. She has not sent anything official to me,” he said.

Mr Chikwelete said he will vie for the forthcoming elections as Lusaka District Chairman.

“Yes I will go for it. No doubt I will go for it. Am very popular as you can see.”

Mrs Atanga slapped suspensions on Mr Chikwelete and Mr Goodson Banda and banned them from contesting the forthcoming party elections for Lusaka District.

  1. Ba fi- color PF are irritating with their squabbles, we want to hear about balanced development not chairman, chairman, secretary general, GBM ,2016,by elections, court appeals and all that crap. Come on Pa bu-Fi (PF) surely you can do better than this.

    • It is a shame, any body can suspend anyone in PF. I think Atanga has been suspended by me… No proceedure. Scot is right, Village politics at play….

    • HM, maybe you’ve suspended Atanga but I don’t think anybody can suspend anybody in PF. E.g. I don’t think Kabimba can even suspend a cow at the moment.

  2. The fool now wants official communication when he claimed to have been appointed by virture of the president’s recognition ati “Lusaka District Chairman is around”.But why do we have such *****s in the forefront of our politics.

  3. ba guy give up naimwe,its like u cant survive withount being chairman. the central commitee decided that u and goodson banda wont stand y kulilila ka post monga mwana

  4. the cartel is too strong for you chikwelete.you ar too small for kabimba and scot if u f.uck with these two then sata will fuc.k you up cos he owes them big time more than you think and know and can imagine.you are actually too minute for their league.there simply telling mwaiche run for your life while and when you can.GBM used you like a condom so wake up baba and read the writings on the wall. used condom.

  5. (1) This Chikwelete even looking at his face, one can tell that he is dull.

    (2) Chikwelete should know that he will have to apply to the SG Wynter Kabimba and his assistant Atanga to be considered for contesting the Lusaka Province chairmanship. Wynter is the same person he was protesting against and is still SG who will receive his application. Where does he stand.

    (3) How do you start fighting the people that are supposed to consider your application.Does chikwelete think that he is bigger than the Central Committee headed by the president.

    (3) Is this chikwelete scholed?

    (5) This is Edgar Lungu’s ward councilor. Looking his face, I think beer suffers when the two meet.

  6. MATRIX.
    (1) No wonder chikwelete misbehaved without being arrested by the police. He is Edgar Lungu’s ward councilor the home affairs minister who controls the police.

    (2) Edgar Lungu must have told Jere don’t arrest them we want to remove kabimba. What a shame. I’m begining to see the connections now. No wonder SATA has not acted on Wynter.

  7. i know where Chikwelete is coming form, The president is the one that introduced him as lusaka pf chairman. its Sata’ mistake!! what was he thinking when he did that?

  8. @mm
    Feel for chikwelete, imagine you were in his shoes. This man was appointed by the president in full view of the whole nation. The president can appoint either by letter or word of mouth.
    chikwelete must stand his ground on this matter, anyone must sympathise with him. .

    • Kavuyi was the name of my grandy from my mothers side who is now deceased. She hauled from Lukulu ,the town KK mistakenly placed in WP instead of NWP. So where did you find this name?

  9. To maintain those two phones in his hands and to have food on his table he needs that post. Please understand the man. Not to save Zambian people.

  10. Cikabwalala, caliina mulandu wakwiba nobufi mu ma politics. Cipompwe, cimuselela kwakaba, cilelwisha pantu mu PF nashiwe mpiya shakuposaika icikulu ulelumbula fye ifisuma fyeka fyeka pali PF. Kwena icalo naconaika sana bushe nikwisa tulelola mwe bantu, nani akatulubula kuli ba mumbwe aba ?

  11. This chima Chikwelekwele man makes me wonder what body organ he is using for his sense of hearing.Sata is unwell so he instructed G. Chella to clear the air everyone knows now its his appointment is a resolved matter. So what is this we are hearing again. Does he expect the whole of the presidency to issue a statement in person just to revoke the kama appointment of a kama Districk Chairman.

  12. …..it looks like Atanga is the acting CEO now……the actual CEO has been side-lined or silently ‘suspended’………….?

  13. How the Two MAILONI Brothers (Mtembo & Mmembe) cartel managed to evade paying airport taxes

    October 22, ZAMBIANS WE NEED TO GET OUR MONEY OFF THE MAILONI TWINS

    Information has finally emerged on how defunct Zambian Airways Directors namely Mutembo Nchito, Nchima Nchito and Fred Mmembe managed to evade paying airport fees to the National Airports Corporation Limited and why Dora Siliya is appearing in court today.

    Zambian Watchdog investigations have revealed that the directors of Zambian Airways first influenced the appointment of their own into NACL management and this how they did it.

    APPOINTMENT OF MONDE WOOD AS BOARD CHAIRPERSON.

    What the directors first did was to influence late President Levy Mwanawasa to appoint Mrs Monde Wood as NACL Board Chairperson. Why Monde…

  14. To psychiatrist

    My mother’s name is KAVUYI (MHSRP) she is lunda from North Western Province Chief Ishindi village Kachawa in Zambezi District. Does that answer your question?

    Good day

  15. it seems Chikwelete’s only trade is politics , he thrives on selling illegal plots ,demarcating people’s farms forcefully and without the chairmaniship , he feels empty!. Shame , politics of the belly !

  16. Kwena limbi its me who doesn’t know ba Jere saluting for this cadre? Nangu limbi efyobaposha. Anyway someone enlighten me on this one.

  17. So now ATANGA what is she going to say to Chikwelete????? Can now people begin to understand why Kabimba became so annoyed and said things he should not even have said. How do you deal with such indiscipline? So now ATANGA she should deal with this one instead of working hard to kick out Kabimba as if she expects Sata to promote her when Kabimba leaves. Why is she suddenly at the forefront of trying to push her boss out? So now when the tables turn for her now who is going to support her now? NOBODY! This fight with Chikwelete nobody will support ATANGA because all those that could have supported her are on the side of Kabimba whom she is really pushing to be fired. So now, let us see how she will deal with Chikwelete. ATANGA take it easy, vilibe chibwenzi ivi vintu, uza sala weka!
