The opposition Movement for Multi Party (MMD) has maintained that President Michael Sata phoned MMD President Dr. Nevers Mumba threatening him with a jail sentence.

Yesterday President Sata expressed shocked at Pastor Mumba’s decision to ‘deliberately distort facts surrounding an honest conversation he had with him and turned it around with a coat of lies and illusions.

MMD Presidential Spokesperson, Muhabi Lungu, has told QFM News in an interview that Special assistant to the President for Press and Public Relation George Chellah should stop issuing out statements when he did not understand what President Sata and Dr. Mumba had spoken about.

Mr. Lungu says Dr. Mumba has a heart for Zambia and he cannot stop to talk about issues affecting the nation and that Mr. Chellah should learn how to be professional in his conduct.

He adds that Mr. Chellah is not aware of the threats that President Sata had made on the MMD leader adding that the conversation was just between the two of them.

Mr. Lungu says President Sata should not question Pastor Mumba’s leadership quality and sympathizing with dismissed nurses is not wrong because he is a leader and he understands what the dismissed nurses are going through.

Meanwhile, Opposition Movement for Multi Party Democracy (MMD) has demanded for the immediate rein-statement of all Nurses Countrywide.

MMD Leader Nevers Mumba says it is unfortunate that government has failed to dialogue with the Nurses despite writing and apologizing.

Dr. Mumba notes that it is depressing that as the Citizenry approach Christmas hundreds of families across the Country will spend this festive season with no food because Nurses are out of employment.

He adds that it is also depressing that many Families will Spend time burying their loved ones who are dying in record numbers in Hospitals because government has decided to fire all Nurses indiscriminately.

Meanwhile Dr. Mumba has demanded for the immediate reinstatement of government Subsidy on Mealie Meal.

He notes that many people cannot afford to buy a bag of Mealie Meal which now cost ninety kwacha because government has removed the Subsidy which helps to cushion the poorest of the poor amongst all.

    • Iwe Zambiano! What lies has Dr Mumba said? Was Chellah present when Mr Sata called Dr Mumba? If you are not able to these 2 questions, then do not label Dr mumba a liar. Period.

    • @Zambiano
      Between Sata and Pastor Mumba… there is one big undoubted liar. ,,, thats why i must pray and fast for hm going into 2014,, so that he can stop lying and making his MPs knee at gun point

    • You Zambiano,do you think there is any need to ‘character assassinate’ Sata.Because as things have been all along Sata character assassinates himself.Sata is the enemy of himself.Sata just says things before he thinks.Zambiano,don’t be a spiritually blind person.Sata is just there for One Term,and God has allowed it for a purpose.Sata or not any other person will deceive the pipo of Zambia anymore.You shall know them by their of fruits.One shoul be a leader even before he/she becomes president.Let’s know pipo before they become any type of a leader.

    • I AM HAPPY THAT TODAY THE JAIL SENTENCE HAS COME UP. INDEED THEY LIKELY TO SEND MUMBA TO JAIL TO FINISH HIM UP.

  1. The problem is that our politicians are generally liars. So there is no knowing as to who is telling the truth about anything. God help us!

    • Once more, the last person you should never think of firing in our country is a Nurse. The media should go to hospitals and check the outcome of firing medical people. Now, is the time that all Zambians with medical inclination should go back and help saving lives. This includes the sucked nurses, Sata’s wife, Professor Nkandu, retired Drs. and nurses etc. MWE BOMBENI BOMBENI BOMBENI CHULILENI AFRICA.

  2. ANY SENSIBLE AND EDUCATED HUMAN BEING CAN DEDUCE FROM WHAT THE PASTOR IS DESPERATELY TRYING TO ACHIEVE :

    SEEKING PUBLIC SYMPATHY VISA VIZ THE COURT’S JUDGEMENT TOMORROW.

    THE TIMING OF THE PASTOR’S PRESS CONFERENCE GIVES ONE THE IMPRESSION THAT MAMBALA ALI NO MWENSO!

  3. i thot this tithe and offering thief was talking something sensible,so its nurses issues?this chapter is closed. Hope grz doesnt listen to gabbage from neverlands.

    Pliz u politicians that ve been choping tu nurse, look after them now,they provided superclass service in bed dont abandon them now simply coz they are asking for ration cash. Remember the good days you had with them in bed….. Common HH,NEVERLANDS time to show care, love.

  4. Can you poeple stop fighting for a while? Enjoy your Holidays and reflect on what you have done, havent accomplished, wish to achieve next year and make merry!!

  5. I REPEAT NEVERS IS SIMPLY NERVOUS.
    HE, LIKE RB, HAS ALREADY GOT WIND OF THE JUDGEMENT.

    KA PULI AKWETE FYE UMWENSO. HE TALKS TOO MUCH NONSENSE!

    HE, LIKE HH, THINKS WE ARE KIDS LIKE THEM, WHO CANNOT ANALYZE ISSUES POLITICAL ISSUES BY OURSELVES.

    A CUSTODIAL SENTENCE, HOWEVER BRIEF, WILL BE GOOD TUTORIAL IN FREEDOM OF SPEECH, FOR HIM AND THE FODEP I D I O T.

  6. Between Dr Mumba and Sata,i think i would believe Dr Mumba’s version.Sata has proven and has a history of being a pathological liar.

  7. If the conversation was between Sata and Mumba then it becomes very hard to know the truth. Mumba shows he is an amateur politician by telling the world about it. Get evidence or a witness baba imwe ba pastor before making an allegation unless you are riding on a wind of popularity. Popularity we all know the MMD doesnt have.

  8. When did the Zambian President become a Judge or Magistrate ? Knowing the gentleman who was made President, he doe not even know that he does not have such powers.

    Because he was a Police man, I believe he thinks that now that he is President then he has the powers to order anyone to go to jail.

    I can’t wait to see this President appearing before the Zambian courts charged for abuse of power. I can just hear him saying in his defence that, “I can not remember being President or a using any power !!!

  9. so muhabi was listening you guys nevers is a boring chap. he lies he and muhabi miscalculate a lot. when did muhabi join mmd he was unip at a wrong time just late.just like now they think they can run mmd no ways him nevers lusambo their spokes person were drafted in to mmd by rb who had no grip of things in mmd. they cant debate properly they want pf to fail just like they are failures. muhabi stood in lusaka central instead of standing were your father is mp today you thought the money will get you lusaka central again you miscalculated you lost despite standing distrurbing traffic. you guys are boring shame on you. why blame chella if you too are just an agent.

  10. Even the hungry dogs walking with 4 legs Kumayadi and Compounds know that there is one big liar in Zambia.

    Dogs are finding it hat to eat left overs, due to life becoming too expensive as no one is throwing away food.

  11. Nervers is a liar…I agree with the President’s version of the story, 100%.

    Because if the President had indeed threatened the fellow, why did the fellow not wait for the final judgement in his case with the courts on Monday to use them (the threats) as evidence of a politically motivated judgement or interference in judicial matters by the executive?

    Commonsense!

  12. The allegations made by the Pastor against the President of threatening him (an ordinary citizen) with jail term are fairly serious because they cast aspersions on the office of the president. I wish someone could challenge the Pastor in the courts of law to prove them.

    If the President is the one who called called him, surely the President (as I know him) might have begun with a “family greeting”.
    So, I don’t see how words in a casual telephone call could suddenly turn into threats!

    Apart from your case which is before court, why should anyone jail you? Prison jail for what? Please tell us pastor!

    Awe ba Pastor you are simply scared stiff of the judgement this morning!

  13. This is not a big problem let ZICTA play the tapped conversation between the COBRA and man of God. But for some reasons they can’t play it when the head of state is wrong unless man of God is wrong

  14. In a functional State, as a matter of fact, telephone conversations between the President and any outsider are recorded to avoid any possibility of misunderstanding.
    How come there are no records/

  15. Yeah I read that shallow statement by the President’s Special Press Assistant. It was shocking to think it was coming from the highest office in the nation. It was like reading a Grade 7 student trying to sound intelligent in a letter to the popular girl he likes by spewing out words he has just heard in a biology class without ever knowing their meaning:

    “Me, darling, I will photosynthesis love you like the sun and carbon dioxide you when sunset comes. That boyfriend of yours has amnesia so don’t even worst your nervous system and circulation system energy and granular energy on him. I will diffusion and enzyme him any time.

    Luvi, me and you are symbiosis for life until cerebellum death do us part.

    • Being a journalist is one thing and you really need qualified public relations personnel to do the job Mr Chellah is doing. I really don’t understand why he has to be rude and sarcastic every time he responds to criticism. Can’t he just be polite and deliver the same message? Is this a Zambian thing or something? He tries hard to sound rude, tough and intelligent by pulling all these buzz words – he just needs to be simple and polite.

      Can’t he just emulate his counterparts in other countries how they represent the office of the president?

  16. Obviously the Liar is the one who also lies to Zambians every day from 2011. Like More money in the Nurses pockets but Lol.
