United Party for National Development (UPND) president Hakainde Hichilema has challenged Republican President Michael Sata come out of what he has described as his new hideout facebook and address the nation directly on the constitution.
In an open letter to the president released to the media, Mr Hichilema said that the President’s clueless policy of ignoring citizens on the constitution is creating unnecessary tension and acrimony in the country.
Mr Hichilema reminded President Sata that his battle cry for the September 2011 election that lifted the hopes and aspiration of Zambians was the promise to deliver a people driven constitution within the first ninety (90) days of the Patriotic Front’s administration and reneging on this pledge after getting the vote is tantamount to obtaining electoral victory by false pretences.
Below is the open letter in full
16 February, 2014
His Excellency The President,
Mr. Michael Chilufya Sata,
State House
Lusaka
Your Excellency,
THE NEED FOR A NEW CONSTITUTION
We write again on behalf of many Zambians on the above captioned subject.
We are happy that you answered our call and you are back from where you were to face the challenge of delivering a new constitution.
We put it to you that there is growing national consensus among the citizenry that the delivery of a people driven constitution should be your administration’s number one (1) priority in this jubilee year.
We have however noted with great concern your unpatriotic and divisive comments on the constitution. During your last address to Parliament in October 2013, you stated that there was no need to rush the constitution making process because Zambia was not facing a constitutional crisis.
Most recently, on Wednesday 12th February 2014, at State House during a swearing in ceremony, you stated that people who spoke about the constitution should be ignored because Zambia already has a constitution.
We have studied your comments and our response is as follows:-
1. Your clueless policy of ignoring citizens is creating unnecessary tension and acrimony in the country. In a functioning democracy, Presidents do not give citizens the “silent treatment” but engage them. We demand that you come out of your new hideout facebook and address the nation directly on the constitution.
2. Your battle cry for the September 2011 election that lifted the hopes and aspiration of Zambians was the promise to deliver a people driven constitution within the first ninety (90) days of the Patriotic Front’s administration. Reneging on this pledge after getting the vote istantamount to obtainig electoral victory by false pretences. It is criminal!
3 Your hypocrisy has reached alarming proportions. A few questions will help illustrate our point:-
a. When you were campaigning in 2011 and promising voters a new constitution, didn’t you know that Zambia already had a constitution?
b. When you were opening parliament on 14th October 2011 and promising Zambians a new constitution, didn’t you know that Zambia already had a constitution?
c. When you set up a technical committee to spearhead the drafting of a new constitution,didn’t you know that Zambia already had a constitution?
The answer to the above questions is that you knew, therefore your recent utterances only confirm your hypocrisy
4. Your current position on the constitution if taken seriously implies that you orchestrated plunder of national resources to the tune of K154 million (K154 billion old currency)
5. Finally we find your current position to be illogical. Life is all about improving what you found. Yes we do have a constitution , but this does not stop us from seeking a better one
In conclusion, your administration’s u-turn on the delivery of a people driven constitution is a direct assualt on the people’s jubilee dream. Zambians demand that your administration quickly re-aligns itself with the aspirations of the majority on this matter and facilitate the delivery of a people driven constitution.
Yours faithfully,
Hakainde Hichilema

The man is crimed he does not know his father? we are waiting for fwakukaya and his answers to the four questions.
What is the matter with Mundia? Okay, he’s unreasonable thanks to Kambwili.
He speaks lot of sense the more you listen to HH
He has a point, over to you Mr President
Thanks,
Exactly! Thats what I would like to hear. Faka pressure to raise Sata’s BP until he does the right thing.
Balepaule HH bakabolala
The thought statehoiuse was a holiday house…
The thing is in self distraction mode fuka more press to finish it
We are now in manigi trouble…. HH is now entering the 18 area. yayayaya
18 months to go and UNDP is warming up another player.
Dennis Liwewe.
HH just get a facebook page, you will be in the loop too.
Hot stinky stream as usual
I cant wait to read the appropriate feather ruffling response from plot one
The way he was crying on top of an anthill campaigning and lying that he will enact a new constitution, now he is worse than any other leader. Awe kwena chisushi ichi.
Ni Pa Mpoto, pa Mupika, pali Safuliya in Katuba
Vote for Patricia (ABZ)
Damn you Mark Zucherberg!! Look what you have done to our country with your Facebook!!!
SHUT UP YOU TONGA BULL, YOU LOOK LIKE A DRUNKEN COW ,,,,,,
You are a blind follower capable of licking yo boss’ hus that is if you are not doing it right now.
awe naiwe HH pressure monga pitbul,, take breather my tonga man!! no need for all that, Sata is his own opposition! Sata is everyday decampaigning himself, the man is voting himself out state house
Sata miss UPND pact, he could have had better MPs to advice him, not his “useless” MPs, I wonder he get candidate in 2016.
Ni pa Mpoto!!
Sata is headed for total destruction,he needs no one to help him.HH take a chill pill my man, 2016 you will be president.Lesson to all well meaning Zambians,never vote for a demagogue like this mwachusa we have now.It was a waste of my vote,one of the 4 worst mistakes I have ever made in my life was voting for this CNP and even having a party after he won.But I despair not,2016 is just 2 years from now.
Sorry, but you’ve made me curious….
What were the other three worst mistakes in your life? Please don’t say you’ve voted four times so far….. although that answer would be acceptable. Cheers!
clue less mundia u are useless.
Hero of Humanity(HH).
More accouterments and well done for standing solid with the people, Human Heart(HH).
Haleisa Halenya (HH)
Haleisa Halepitilila (HH)
Let him sort out his married problem first with these children cheated on him. Then the constitution. The man is maningi trouble
Don’t try to divert the attention. Just answer if you can, on behalf of your Prez Mr. MCLMCS, aka, CNP, Cuumbu M.
Didn’t he know that Zambia had a constitution? He was in the UNIP and then MMD govts, Didn’t he know that Zambia had a constitution when he promised the 90 day bufi?
Well said HH (as usual).
Now wait for the brief but irrelevant, sarcastic, embarrassing, and unpresidential response from P1.
God be with us all.
Am waiting for people to call him under 5, coz he does have a point. Maybe Mr Sata was just joking about the constitution and calling most of his mps useless.
@cnp
They are not “HIS” MPs, they are OURS! The people of Zambia.
Sata does not own them, they have brains of their own. Even if they cannot use them properly.
Anyway this IDI0T does not have enough intelligence to make a “joke” like this. He is serious.
HH is like you asked a question: Do you know I amb thinking? We are the fight together.
Unpresidential response being concocted by Chela. For all those with diplomas wait and see your level of english!
The constitution you *****!!! Clearly there’s a problem here but obviously it’s too complex for your amoeba brain
Still at the educational stage when “amoeba” looks extremely complicated?
90 days not over yet so HH and your friends, wait bane until 90 days is over. Why are you in a hurry?
Hiding places are running out for this president. There wasn’t any in London not too long ago.
HH is the best leader Zambia could ever ask for. This letter shows me a lot about the quality of leader that he is. It is such a shame that his enemies are tribalists and will do all in their power to taint his image with this tag and in the process deny Zambians a better future. If somehow he manages to get into state house, I pledge to use all my resources (both financial and entrepreneurial expertise) to help Zambia move forward.
A tribalist is the one who keeps pointing at others. HH is not a tribalist as most of his friends are non Ila (he is not pure Tonga). It is you Chinyama, Gen, Luapula Premier who are tribalists. In my home (wife and husband), one of us is a Bemba and we have seven Bemba mixed children. Most of our relatives are not just married from Lubemba. I thus deplore you tribalists.
Well said HH, good premises, extrapolation, and conclusion; school really pays of in abundance!
If you studied logic, you will appreciate HH’s letter. Very short but a good science of reasoning, proof, and thinking.
HH has analysed Sata-n’s behaviour towards the Constitution showing beyond any doubt that Sata-n is a hypocrite and father of lies.
Using technical terms, HH has revealed the invalidity of Sata-n’s political position.
It would be good to have a president who reasons correctly like HH. A little basic knowledge of logic is indeed helpful when constructing an argument.
How I wish Sata-n’s responses to HH’s letters were also a connected series of statements to establish his definite political propositions able to fuel a healthy political debate with the…
This letter mirrors the position of the Catholic bishops, OASIS forum, LAZ, MMD etc. The question still remains; is there a critical mass of Zambians that shakeswith indignation at the lynching of the people’s constittion making process by Sata’s pf vuvuzela’d by M’membe’s Post. Once Zambians are resolved, this so called docile nation will arise to redeem itself. That has been the story of mother Zambia. And it will not be because HH wrote a letter which was responded to by M’membe quoting someone in his usual patented insulting tribalistic trade mark. I remind the UNZANDO “Bulwark” editor and school mate, Fred Membe, Proverbs 1 says, A good reputation is better than much wealth; high esteem is better than silver and gold.
Who wrote this letter? Ba HH, why do you sound like Sata, i really cant tell the difference whose wise now..
How can’t you?????? You are not serious. May be you want to hear what pleases you and not the truth. Is there anything hidden about this letter? Unless you have not been following the events….
@Speaker.
Don’t try to divert the attention. Just answer if you can, on behalf of your Prez Mr. MCLMCS, aka, CNP, Cuumbu M.
Didn’t he know that Zambia had a constitution? He was in the UNIP and then MMD govts, Didn’t he know that Zambia had a constitution when he promised the 90 day bufi?
Calling out a cowardly thug who thrives on taking pot shot, jibes, cheap shots when you’re not looking or there to defend yourself.
The man will never come out. He will never, ever show up and honestly openly speak to Zambians. He’d have to actually keep quiet and respond to questions. He cannot do that. He’s a genuine coward!
He’ll cower behind Chellah and the bone head information. Chellah will catch hell when governments eventually change. That’s the boss’s last gambit. He’ll claim he signed nothing so knew nothing.
His favours through contracts ar not actually favours but but insurance policies. Everyone with a contract will have to keep their mouth shut or face ACC and DEC.
He’ll coerce, blackmail and underhand ball squeeze all of you that make yourselves…
Do you really think Sata has time to seat and write anything on facebook? He’s got no clue how facebook even works.
In short, we do not have a President. Period
Sata doesn’t listen to reason, hence the tag ‘Chumbu Munshololwa’. He is impervious, resistant to reason. He will never allow reason to seep through his brain.
Does he actually have a brain? Maybe he is using his URINE BAG to think with now!
Our jubilee celebration this year is one of the worst celebrations Zambia will celebrate under Chumbu. We’re is membe can he not see that his friend is running this country on auto pilot? What kind of a hypocrit is he? This is purely very hypocritical on the part of Mmembe. This man (Sata) got the majority of the votes from Ka ponyas but he goes to rule the country on Facebook? How many ka ponyas are on Facebook? Shame?
Am happy with MUSHOTA today!
Zambians and the Noses!
HH ulubuli iwe can you give the president some breathing space for a week?
@ Cindy, Are you new in our country Zambia? You did not hear that our president went for a holiday for 2 weeks to have a breathing space.
I dont think I meant Noise, look carefully at the picture first thing I saw was the Mpunos!
Breathing space? When the man has never had a press conference since he was voted in…he has even the audacity to go on a self imposed vacation to “lala land” with our jet at our expense. He tells us that he is to wooing investors yet he comes back empty handed…you try that at any work place lets see our long you will last.
WAKE UP!!
If you can be attracted to his nose what more his sacred weapon?
Well spoken HH. My message to the young Zambians in particular is simply this:- This is a good example of how to talk about issues and nothing but issues. This is the sort of talk that should be encouraged. This is how developed Countries talk and debate and put their views across. Now, wait for the response from PF Govt and compare and make your own conclusions. Will the Govt respond point-for-point? Lets wait and see.
(HH) Humsula Huwangombe. The president is well aware that the constitution has been drafted. Just be patient ka Under 5. You behave sometimes like a kid in kindergarten. The constitution will be released before 3 months before the elections in 2016. Sata is a man of action. He will deliver this document but not now. Your eyes are red because of smoking that dangerous potent dry cow dang (southern smoke)
He is man of action as much as you are descendant of homosapiens
Don’t be funny @Kudos.
We have been more than patient. In fact you (Bufi Party) told us you give us the NEW CONSTITUTION in 90 days. But since we are more rational, we knew it could NEVER be done. We allowed the realistic and actual process of using a technical committee, with terms of reference (including a time frame) with billions of Kwachas allocated. The TC’s task was successfully done months ago.
Now it is time to demand what is ours.
The Facebook issue brings to mind a cartoon I came across some time back in which two dogs where surfing the internet using one screen and the one on the keyboard turned and said to his friend; I quote “The goodness with the internet is that no-one can tell that you are a dog”.
Kekekekekekekekeke. Hehehehehehehe.
Apart from southern, i rely wonder where HH will get the majority vote if he cant win in LSK and CB as at now.
I doubt any opposition will win so long as HEMCS pushes through to the general elections! Even I wouldnt allow anyone to take over, too many enermies trying to skin him alive. I doubt he will take that risk, now I understand why rigging is the norm I really thought and believed it was all for power, firm and money, but no….. it is for Immunity too bad for RB!
From @Cindy to @Grand – two scared hounded-out rats thinking aloud trying to reassure each other.
Looks funny.
When are we going to listen to policy issues. Every president has his own style of running affairs. Hh has his Facebook page and has been spewing his usual nonsense and nobody stopped him. Why do you want the president not to go digital like other presidents. You saw him in Katuba didn’t you. The more you continue this nonsense the more you distance other people from your useless party. Grow up and behave like a child who grew up in a normal home. Look around your peers in opposition around the world and how they behave. Epo mpelele.
I concor with you Albert but at least one ka press conference every 6months will do ,completely nothing in two years nayo yachita over.
Sorry guys, you are now too few to challenge the majority. Just check comments above and count how many agree with you. HH is spot on here and you know it, unless you are one of the current plunderers or simply hardcore tribalists like Ukwa himself.
@Albert Chinyama. It is you who apparently didnt grow up in a normal home. Have respect for a rich proven man. HH is just repeating what the Episcopal Conference, and other church mother bodies have said. The debate and demand for constitution will not go away even if HH joined to praise Sata today. And I now prophecy: Zambia will have a people driven constitution despite opposition from Sata and PF!!!!
@Chinyama. There is a very BIG ISSUE here. The CONSTITUTION!!!!!!!!
Don’t try to divert the attention. Just answer if you can, on behalf of your Prez Mr. MCLMCS, aka, CNP, Cuumbu M.
Didn’t he know that Zambia had a constitution? He was in the UNIP and then MMD govts, Didn’t he know that Zambia had a constitution when he promised the 90 day bufi?
@Chinyama/Albert
The man needs to engage his employers positively and explain why he seems at sea with critical issues. Maybe it’s high time you joined the rest of Zambia in telling the aging snake that you can not fight nature; his time is up and the under 5 has become of age. In one of the Zambian tribes, they advise women not to put a male child on the lap because his third leg might just start knocking on the mother!
Sale your policies and what you intend to do differently,all I know most areas are well covered especially developmental,visible projects mwandi here in Livingstone we have no words,it’s just PF everywhere even the old lady simango entered the boat which the veteran munkombwe is paddling very well approaching Choma.Watchout for the storm..ya ya ya ya..
Chinyama, tell Sata to not block the people driven constitution because you wont be with him in jail if he doesnt give Zambians the constitution after he leaves office. That same Stella Li.bongan.i and other service chiefs will put him in njeema.
Development projects are welcome as they belong to the owners of the money; Zambians. Sata has NO money as he declared SEVEN GUNS only when he entered State House. So the development we are seeing IS NOT from Sata (period) He is a poor 7 gunner.
The PF cadres have just woken up. Since they have nothing to do, they are paid to blog in favour of Panga Family every day and since they rely on internet Cafes to they have to wait for the cafes to open and close. Haleisa Haleisa 2016!!
@democratic legal & nationalist, I am not a cadre am well learned and very hard working, and when PF errors I castigate them for change for they are just humans.Lets blogg objectively here,,Yes the nation is entitled to a new constitution as promised,the president is still studing it and he still says as soon as he’s through he will effect it,levy & bwezani both failed to give us a constitution ask them why,even the loud hakaivotela was silent then,look out tomorrow I explain why it not as easy as said.
“bauze, bauze Ngozi
bauze, bavensense LELO”!!!
Those not in the know Sata wants PF to go with him. He did not create for anyone to enjoy it.
Go with him where? Where people never come back? So it is TRUE that PF is just a suicide pack led by a deranged cult leader! Zambia ifelile. Ki za kuipatiseza. Ni lapela kuli kwa liketisa za 2016 mu ka belekisa litoho za mina.
Why UPND president Copied only to 4 Political parties MMD,FDD,ADD and UNIP? What about PF,ZED,ABZ,PP,MNP,DAN PULE, MPOMBO ETC, also What is that institute called PANOS , Southern Africa that has no letter ” i ” between N and O? Lets stop this constitution nonsense, the owner WILLA MUNG’OMBA PASSED OWN yesterday MHSRIP, it seems he died out of constitution crisis , hence avoid this topic, we need the head of state rule beyond 2016
@Anyoko. Be serious.
Don’t try to divert the attention. Just answer if you can, on behalf of your Prez Mr. MCLMCS, aka, CNP, Cuumbu M.
Didn’t he know that Zambia had a constitution? He was in the UNIP and then MMD govts, Didn’t he know that Zambia had a constitution when he promised the 90 day bufi?
THE FACEBOOK PICTORIAL DESIGN OF
HARRY MWAANGA NKUMBULA AND
KK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORTS,
BRIDGES,
ROADS,
UNIVERSITIES ETC
ARE HURTING HH. HH IS HAVING DIARRHEA AS WE APPROACH 2016.
THE PRESIDENT’S WORK & ACHIEVEMENTS ARE NOW COMMUNICATED TO EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE, THROUGHOUT THE WORD. UNCENSORED.
FOR US IN LUAPULA, WE WILL ALWAYS BE GUIDED BY POLITICS OF MEN LIKE KK & THE LATE MAZOKA WHO PREACHED, “ONE ZAMBIA, ONE NATION.” AND NOT TRIBAL POLITICS OF KALUFYANYAS WHO REMIND CERTAIN SECTIONS OF OUR SOCIETY THAT, “We people from North Western Rhodesia should unite. If we give power to these Bembas, we’ll never get it back?”, 2009
Hacili Haleisa whether you like it or not no matter how many Muchingan Universities you’ll quote and he is now in the 18 yard area withing shooting range!!!! And stop claiming Mazoka was your man when you gave him the same label you are now giving HH and I’m sure you know that Mazoka got nil votes from your province! You’ve fooled us for a long time but not now – Tiye Nayo HH 2016!!!!!
The issue is the constitution. Why not talk about that Luapula? Why not talk about the issues raised in HH’s letter? This thing you do of talking about bitterness etc is extremely childish and you do it all the time which tells me your mental capacity is quite limited. Talk about the issues raised because there is absolutely NOTHING new about what you are saying coz this is the nonsense you say ALL THE TIME. The issue is the constitution and since you insist you are in your sixties, why not act it for the first time? We already have a hopeless old senile person and unfortunately he is the one running this nation. As his die-hard supporter, why not redeem him instead of emulating him. Think about it.
@ dudelove
My friend, why are you wasting your time with luapula?
By now you should have reached to conclusion that he is a sub-specie of humanoid whose brain has reached stage that it strongly and honestly believe that Earth is flat, IQ its equal to the size of his shoes and that pigs can fly.
He can adress the nation openly using facebook, its a media outlet just like TV or radio, or do you want him to physically talk to each and every zambian by having hundreds of meetings? Unlike TV what you say on facebook stays in print and is easily accessible by anyone with a half decent phone and basic literacy, unless you are saying your illiterate? Or phoneless? Well if you have no phone you are likely someone so deep in rural you will hardly care or even know what the word constitution means. Have a nice day.
blah, blah, blah………….
Don’t be Jerk. Think.
Who is typing on his behalf?
FAMOUS QUOTES : “We people from North Western Rhodesia should unite. If we give power to these Bembas, we’ll never get it back?”, 2009
@Luapula Premier…..whatever grudge you have against HH, he is not the whole of Zambia that is demanding a constitution. Your tribal card is a red herring which is meant to stock tribal sentiments against a well articulated argument.
Did Sata promise a people driven constitution in 90 days or not? It was on this premise that he was elected to office after RB failed the Zambians. Cap 87, Penal Code, of the Laws of Zambia and I think Chapter XXX from section 308 criminalises false pretense. Unless Sata enacts the Constitution, there might be judge made law of this matter after he leaves office. Lawyers are adjusting their wigs; watch!!
That my brother is a
Cc means Carbon Copy. Did you use a type writer iwe HH? I thought you sent Sc Soft copies to your NGO?
Presido promised to lead by the Ten Commandments, mybe, he has found them on facebook.
@20, muna, me too happy with bi-polar Mushota. She got up on the right side of the bed.
HH has surely matured as a politician, this a good piece of work. Faka pressure HH. We appreciate what you are doing for this country, you are our only hope! We have a fraudulent leader at Plot 1, what a shame!!
How many schools K154 million (K154 billion old currency)of the hard earned tax payers’ money would have built that Sata threw in the river?
The onus is on CSO, Church, oposition political parties and other general citizens to organise themselves and go flat out eductaing the masses in every corner of the country clearly about how the constitution impacts on service delivery, development, governance etc. People do not really understand the impaortance of this document and when Sata says no one will eat the constitution, people take it just like that. Failure to go falt out to all conors of our country, Sata is president again in 2016 even if he may be on oxygen and in a wheel chair.
The only person who knew how to handle Mr. Sata, was late Mr. Dawson Lupunga (MHSRIP). He knew how to shut him up. Remember how the “Lamba bull” Dawson clobbered Mr. Sata at Parliament Motel in the early 90s, and from that he was quiet until Mr. Lupunga passed on. May be we need to invoke his spirit to help the Zambian people again.
@Mushota I am Surprised too.
@ Shaka thanx u ve made my Lunch Sweeter dogs indeed.
coming to the issue. Lets get United as youngmen & Women, all of us who were born After Independence IRRESPECTIVE of TRIBE.
We Need a “FIRST CLASS ZAMBIA” not SECOND one. Lets put issues not Tags.
@Luapula Premier u r useless full stop.
this is what I say ba HH . Lack of a proper agenda of what you will do in government not calling people out of ‘hide outs’. My question still remains, how does that help create employment? how does that tell the people what you plan to do to turn around a third world country in historic record time?how does that put food on my table? this strategy is becoming odd. be like PF 2old guyss shouting ,’lower taxes, more money in your pockets’ for ten years! even tho they didnt even fully understand how that was going to be possible.
@The Matrixi give a + on this one.
i will be brief. Opposition’s main role is to question the government of the day and hold them accountable to the public.unfortunatley the current crop of opposition in zambia is weak and petty. however am aware Opposition parties in zambia don’t have the same resources as the Government so they have to work twice as hard to get the results. furthermore if my observstions are accurate form what i read on here and other online publications, seems to me the polical landscape has since changed since PF coming to power ie the aleged tribalism, nepotism & corruption being practised by the PF goverment has gone unchallenged, youth unemployemnt,poverty or food security mining taxes and mineral royalties. no opposition party of puting up this fight!
wacth the Parliamentary debate and you will agree with Sata.. the MP’s are useless. opposition included. the opposition spend all the time talking about irrelavant things such as wht the president is doing in india or uk, other than what is happening in the constituencies were they come from. all are just intrested in personal agenda and waiting for the gratuity
I will never ever like this HH chap that doesn’t even know wer his father comes from.
And a sh!t is what we do not give about whether you like HH or not.
Look at your cheap debates now…..so clueless like Ukwa…..fyoooooo!!!!!!!!!
“We people from North Western Rhodesia should unite. If we give power to these Bembas, we’ll never get it back?”, 2009.
CAN ANY LEVEL HEADED ZAMBIAN OR BEMBA SPEAKING PERSON CAST VOTES FOR ANYONE WHO HARBORS THESE SENTIMENTS?
WHO ARE ‘WE’?
UNITE AGAINST WHO?
LEVEL HEADED ZAMBIANS WOULD LIKE ANYONE WHO SAID THESE WORDS TO EXPLAIN HIMSELF. NO PRESS CONFERENCE OR FACE BOOK EXCUSES PLEASE!
And there goes the die hard tribalist…..Luapula Premier and/or Chinyama!!
Look at this shameless tribalist fanning tribal hatred Hutu style. Chimangeni chi tribalist ichi……saaaa IG!
Blah, blah, blah……….
You are borrriiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggggggggg
Spending all that time writing ama lyashi yama bwendo.. why cant he tell us what he will do to change the livelihoods of people.
Just one of the plans. Read ******** what real men do. The layout Plans NOT give un-researched, shallow and wild promises.
Ba LT, after editing out the link, you shouldn’t even have published my blog. It doesn’t make sense the way it is. Thank you.
I can also send you a link for PF and whats happening. am sure you havent been to zed in a long time or you just choose to close your eyes. development is not like growing tomatoes in your backyard. HH will still face the same reality Sata and his crew have come to face.
that is good idea from the real concerned citizen HH i wish him good life as he is taking over in 2016 let as wait and see satan and his useless mps including wynter kawimba cause he is not mp let them read this nation well they will be like those guyz who left were are they now all of them in jail let as wait
I think Mr Sata the President of the Republic of Zambia is right. There is no need to rush the constitution, we can even have this constitution in 2022. Zambia already has a good constitution, how come that the previous government used the same constitution to govern. It is very sad that HH is saying that he is writing on behalf of Zambians, he never consulted me, so which Zambians is he talking about? He should state that he is writing on behalf of UPND members and Southern Province. Tell HH to make himself popular to the voters by preaching sense
You lie; what of the concerns from the Catholic church on exactly the same matter , demanding constitution, and what of Christian Councel of Zambia, MMD, NAREP, ZED and others who have condemned Sata and demanded for the Constitution are they from Southern Province???
An African president and his main opposition rival are on an Emirates flight from their country to Bombay, India. Lucky enough for them, an absolutely gorgeous woman is seated between them in business class. They all exchange brief hellos and the two Africans notice she is reading a manual about sexual statistics. The President asks her about it and she replies, “This is a very interesting book about sexual statistics. It identifies that Tonga men have the longest average penis and Lozi men have the biggest average diameter. By the way, my name is Sunsawila Liseli. What’s yours?” The President coolly replies, “Ukwa Chumbwex Munshololwa, nice to meet you.” Upon hearing this, the opposition politician who was escorting the president to hospital, interjected and quote: “My lady, allow…
me to introduce myself, my name is Hamusankwa Hamubi Situmbeko, do you want to take my window seat to enjoy the view?“.
Bondate mwaniseHHisa…..ali kina mutonga apenina nimali a silozi. Katabayo kikuli munmembae (sic) waka kiyomutana maswe ……ooosHHoooo…..oooosHHooooo…o ooosHHooooo!!!!!!
THE TROUBLE IS HH WANTS US TO ADOPT HIS WAY OF THINKING SUCH AS “We people from North Western Rhodesia should unite. If we give power to these Bemba’s, we’ll never get it back?”
FB IS MORE THAN A PRESS CONFERENCE. ACCORDING TO THE ARCHITECT OF FB, MARK ZUKERBERG, HE SAYS “TODAY, OUR SOCIETY HAS REACHED ANOTHER TIPPING POINT.
WE LIVE AT A MOMENT WHEN THE MAJORITY OF OUR PEOPLE IN THE WORLD HAVE ACCESS TO THE INTERNET OR MOBILE PHONES — THE RAW TOOLS NECESSARY TO START SHARING WHAT THEY’RE THINKING, FEELING & DOING.
FB ASPIRES TO BUILD THE SERVICES THAT GIVE PEOPLE THE POWER TO SHARE & HELP THEM ONCE AGAIN TRANSFORM MANY OF OUR CORE INSTITUTIONS AND INDUSTRY.” end of quote..
@Chinyama and your tribal cabal. You are hard core tribalists. As someone says, your tribalism is similar to that practiced by the Janjaweed militia and Salva Kiir Mayardit’s Dinka of South Sudan or the Hutu’s hatred and subsequent massacre of a million Tutsi. The State apparatus should keep a close tab on you reckless tribalists who can conflagrate this unitary state.
That’s very boring naimwe nomba…..
Actually the majority of Zambians do not want this constitution, so HH should not use the constitution to make himself popular. HH is a specialist in failure, how many times has he failed elections? He can be likened to Aresen Wenger and David Moyes. Is the new constitution going to put food on peoples tables? Let us just work hard.
So are Catholic bishops specialists in failure for demanding immediate release of contitution…http://www.catholiczambia.org.zm/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=1&Itemid=81…
What of the stand “Demands for a new constitution are justified – EFZ”
http://www.qfmzambia.com/blog_details.php?idx=16729??? Need we talk about CCZ, Oasis Forum and NAREP?? Are they all specialists in failure agents of HH?? Or can we just say your response is as silly as it is disrespectful quoting Wenger.
@ Global and Luapula
Are you being sarcastic or are you on some very high drug? Or how much have you been paid to sell your souls? How can any normal person not understand the importance of a good constitution to a country? Ah yes a good constitution can enhance real development hence putting food on the table as per your petty argument. It has been said again and again that all it takes for evil to prosper is for the good people to remain quiet and condon it. MCS promised on his own accord no one forced him to promise a new constitution. You can not condon a president who is untrustworthy. That is evil.
Boyi, wamwenekela ati uli wa bufi. Mule umfwako insoni.
Why is it that you PF cadres lie without feeling ashamed. Majority? Which majority?
HH has become of age and is currently an effective opposition leader. His argument is solid, factual and unchallengeable. This is what we in Europe experience narratives of debate by an opposing party in governance and leadership qualities.
At the moment HH is rated better than the sitting president both in fundamental ideals and objective of seeking plot 1 in our nation. If it were in boxing commentry would have been HH pulling short, effective and solid punches that are damaging the already cut eye of his opponent (Sata) who is bleeding profusely, an upper cut will soon end the game but only saved by the bell. Sata has run out of steam and doubts linger his corner if he will go on without a possible knock out, lets wait and see, many are watching world over.
who did the rating?
All well meaning and discerning Zambians (ZEC, ZEF, CCZ, Oasis Forum etc) except PF coribants are now applauding HH as the david that agreed to face the big insulting vernomos goliath in plot 1. HH has shown courage and bull dog tenacity in face of insults from Sata and pf cadre and has articulated issues lucidly. Shame on Luapula premier, chinyama, 142, matrix and your co horts of stiff necked and concrete brain mixed liars and tribalists.
Well articulated @ Chimweme
At chimwemwe.. lend me that stuff you smoking.
@Ozzy for sure some of us are watching as far as Asia.
I Love Zed mwebantu. Lets Develop Zambia.
“We need Think Tanks” like HH and other players like Guy Scott who still reminds me of his DEBATES IN PARLIAMENT tht led to Downfall of MMD.
I recall one day he coned a word “Village Computer” attributing it to Katele Kalumba who was using Magic to hide frm policy in Nchelenge District.
We need such many in Parliament.
Viva HH Viva UPND.
i think i will give HH a point on the issue of the constitution hez got a good fight on this one it does not matter if a personal agenda or a collective agenda- afterall t this a tax payer funded project. zambians should be given what they paid for.
The other major role of opposition is proposing alternatives to what the government is doing so the public gets the benefit of political debate between different direction.
However most of the time HH is very PETTY he does not focus on principle or policy and quite franly he not objective in anyway- i think he come across like a guy with EGO.
1 ZAMBIA 1 NATION
@ Chief lusaka your writing makes interesting reading,here is a Zambian who is neutral and objective,I like your closing paragraph it exactly the reality do you stay in Choma ? Its like you know the dude very well.Yes he needs to adjust if people are to even look at him.All you UNDP bloggers don’t think Hakaivotela is Supernatural he is human and can cause human misjudgements that need correction.speak out when FP scores that’s being objective….
@Chinyama thank you for the comment and point raised on you comment too.
yeah i will alway be objective when it come to polical opinion. am actually based in nothern england. but i would like to think my opinion on HH is almost accurate.
1zambia 1nation
PF is taking the country for granted by lying at every opportunity they have. If we do have a constitution and it is fine, then please bring back the money you have wasted giving a Mupika Chief for sleeping through out the Constitution Expert Committee sittings. For sure your Excellence you do not mean well for this nation at all, how do you pay people to draft a document which is not needed, while you fail to pay nurses who are needed…. one wanders what your supporters are made up of, if they were realistic enough they would have changed by now, talking people like Cindy
Luapula fimo fimo @ Chinyama,
No doubt you are shushushus or deranged psychophants, the tide truly has shifted. Take a break, the pattern is you will never post comments as aba 1st, you wait to see the tied if you see that there is strong condemnation of PF you will not see their posts, also the most annoying part of these goons is that they never debate sensibly, we know your kind, My friend we need the consitution period! The development you are screaming is okay but it has to match with the cost of living. Its like spending all the money on suits, flat screens, fridges, Altezas then you leave out food & call this as development. Shaa!
