Patriotic Front (PF) in Shibuyunji District has called on Newly Elected Katuba Member of Parliament Jonas Shakafuswa to resign on moral grounds.
Shibuyunji District Youth Secretary Gideon Mule has said that the ruling PF in Shibuyunji District find the utterances of Mr. Shakafuswa on the floor of the House in Parliament on Friday as inimical to the values and principles upon which the Nation is founded.
Mr. Mule has told Qfm news that it is also sad that Mr. Shakafuswa has shown the Nation that he is allegedly immature and ignorant of the common aspirations of the people of Zambia.
Shibuyunji District Youth Secretary further notes that the people of Katuba deserve a better representative.
In his maiden speech to parliament, Mr Shakafuswa said that Zambia was being governed by a cartel of few individuals assisted by the family forest.
Shakafuswa said as a result there was massive mediocrity because people were not appointed on merit but consanguinity, a criteria that had completely compromised the governance of the country.
Shakafuswa has said that for the first time, he was in agreement with President Michael Sata that the Patriotic Front (PF) was a party with useless MPs because ´most of them had failed the Head of State.
“The PF has no agenda because of resorting to using pangas when it comes to addressing issues. For us Mr. Speaker it is not strange because President Sata is on record having said that he has useless MPs and I have realized that the same useless MPs the Head of State was talking about are here in parliament. These are useless MPs,” said Shakafuswa.
Shakafuswa has warned the Patriotic Front to stop unleashing what he described as militias from Intercity bus terminus and Misisi compound from harassing innocent Zambians.
Shakafuswa said that it was strange that the PF government was using thugs organized from intercity bus terminus and Misisi compound to victimize and brutalise people perceived to be sympathizers of the opposition political parties.

Making his maiden speech in parliament , Shakafuswa said that he was sent to parliament by Katuba residents for the purpose of delivering and important massage that with or without the PF, development would be delivered to Katuba.
He said that the people of Katuba were determined to participate in the development of the country by ensuring development was taken to Katuba.
“I have been sent to tell the Patriotic Front government that Zambia did not belong to them (PF) or their mothers but for everyone. Mr. Speaker Sir, there are issues the people out there must know about what transpired during the elections in Katuba. The people of Zambia and world over must know that Ministers and other government officials in the PF threatened people against voting for UPND candidates. They said that if they voted for the opposition, the PF as a party in government will not deliver development in the area.
We shall not allow PF to turn the country into a battle zone and take back the country into the 17th century,” said Shakafuswa.
He said that it was sad that the PF was using thugs from intercity bus terminus to victimize people in Katuba, adding that the violence that characterized the Katuba by-election was caused by PF militias from Kanyama and Misisi who were sent to attack and beat up innocent people in the area for not voting for the PF candidate.
Shakafuswa told parliament that his party and other individuals had recorded about 28 incidences, created by the PF, saying that all the reports of assaults and attacks were reported to the police.
“These 28 incidences we recorded were actual beatings and police were incapacitated, they could not do anything because of the threats from PF cadres and ministers,” he said as other Members of Parliament kept on shouting Sikazwe, Sikazwe, Sikazwe.
He said that during the poll day, a named minister went to Katuba and started beating people along hired thugs from Lusaka’s Intercity and Misisi compound.
Shakafuswa warned that the PF thugs were luck that the UPND defence team was restrained from hitting back, “They were luck that our defence team did not go for them. It would have been the end of their militia,” he said.
And Shakafuswa said that the loss of the Katuba seat by the PF was a lesson about the blowing wind of change against the kind of government the PF were providing to the people.
He said that the loss was the end of the PF, adding that it was uncalled for, for the PF to use violence in order to silence the people of Zambia.
“The loss by the PF in Katuba is the end of the party. They must not use violence because of their many shortcomings; the people will never be silenced. Kabimba is on record having said that the PF is the most violent party; Kabimba is on record of saying that the PF is the most indiscipline party and tribal, so we are not going to allow a tribal party which now scheming to promote a minor tribe and language to be taught in schools even in areas where it is not widely spoken,” said Shakafuswa.
Shakafuswa condemn the tribal talk and promotion by the PF, saying Zambians should not accept tribal colonialism under the PF.
Well said Shakas
When did straight talk of calling a spade, a spade become amoral? When did courage and such unparalleled patriotism become amoral?
Shaka has started on a firm and clear pace. His maiden speech has every sound bite of just course and is deserving unwavering solidarity of every patriot at home and around the world. Zambia has found herself in a quagmire of mediocrity, doom, and dangerous incompetency at the hand of revisionists and revanchists.
Well well spoken Shakas. You have just hit the nail on the head. What more can we say?
Useful MP .
I like this guy……keep it up sir!
Give Chishimba Kambwili to respond to Shaka, not the wise Guy Scott who is tired of saving PF every week.
This is the guy who was part of the Mwanawasa family tree.Have you forgotten you gullible zambians?
My English language skills are dying slowly by reading these poorly and grammatically incorrect articles on LT. Please LT raise the bar! You are international now.
I raise my hands up. The guy (Shaka) has put his points across! He gave them a test of their own medicine. A bully doesn’t like it when you standup for yourself. Ichitinya! but no substance when you take them on! GBM is crawling back his money from PF via lawsuits but worryingly us the taxpayers will foot the bill. It would be laughable if it wasn’t so sad.
BUT WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM THE MAN WHO USES HIS POSITION AS MP TO GO ON RAMPAGE TO SLAUGHTER SINGLE AND OTHER MENS’ WOMEN AT THE PARLIAMENTARY HOTEL (MULUNGUSHI HOTEL/MOTEL) ONE AFTER ANOTHER WITHOUT A CONDOM AND EVEN GOES TO HIS WIFE THE SAME EVENING TO DUMP WHATEVER HAS BEEN FISHED FROM A CHAIN OF WOMEN INTO HIS WIFE WITHOUT ANY SHAME. THAT’S THE QUALITY OF UPND LEADERSHIP- SOME OF THEM ARE WOMEN SLAUGHTERS AND OTHERS ARE THE LIKES OF WILLIAM BANDA.
@Peter. Sata, Kabimba, Sampa, Sichinga etc.. are all one-woman men?…kikikiki..If you didnt know that Sata was a master woman slaughterer then you were born yesterday…
Ba @Peter ba chicala ichishinka chamikalipa mwe ch1puba mwe. Ikalenifye, do you know how many id1iot in pf screw women? Your sh1t president sata the dev1l, how many women has he had? How many children from different women does he have?
What about Chikwanda constantly misleading house? What about Kabimba avoiding to clarify position on Constitution? What about Kambwili accepting that PF was ellected by the means of deception? What about ………………………?
Yes, excellent speech honourable MP!
Jonas Shakafuswa is very right..that ka mule minion is a missed call..useless..why should he resign..?get lost..
Dont mind that PF *****, he just wants to be heard talking in case there is a vacancy somewhere, but he must realize that unless he adds a musonda or Bwalya to his name then he can get a job otherwise he will continue being a useful *****
Kabimba N Masebo should lead the way
Where is Shibuyunji district?
Its in Shibuyunji
There no person in Shibuyunji district known as Gideon Mule. It’s total nonsense.
If i may ask, who has morals in your party pf? no one from pf can ask anyone to step down on moral grounds coz you people have none. since when id liars have morals?
Agony is these MPs are good at gab but deep down they are all, without exception, greedy, lusty and immoral. Zambia needs fresh graduates from the University to take over parliament and presidency shall go a Zambian who have lived outside Zambia for two decades who thinks non-zambian way, who has developed values that are different from begging bowl, belly fill and lazying around, telling lies and stealing, womanising and masking Christian identity. He shall bring all cabinet ministers from diaspora. No Zambian living in Zambia is honest. Period
‘No Zambian living in Zambia is honest. Period’ What makes Zambians living outside any better? Don’t generalise! There are many Zambians who are honest living within the boundaries of Zambia and they hate politicians because most of them are dishonest. You ought to be ashamed for thinking or making that statement.
Shameful statement.. advocating someone that has been out of the country for decades is irrational, due to the fact that that individual will be detached from the environment, people living at home have a more intimate understanding of the issues and solutions required. Zambians living abroad do have a lot of value and outside experience to bring and contribute, but that’s not to say those at home are useless, its just the current crop of leadership that is the problem..
Iwee Monde even those in the diaspora can be immoral and can bring politics of the belly after all why did they go into the diaspora in the first place?
I fully support what Shakafuswa said in parliament. This country Zambia does not belong to Bemba speaking people. This is a wake up call that all tribes should be embraced and not one tribe. Bembas’ feels they are a superior tribe. Tribalism is labeled amongst the few tribes but look at the PF government which is bloated by Bemba speaking people. 90% of the cabinet is from one ethnic group in particular Bemba land, most Chief Executive Officers from companies owned by government are from the Bemba speaking land. Zambia belongs to all tribes and Shakafuswa was right to say this country does not belong to your “mother”. We are all equal in the eyes of God and therefore position should be given on merit and not tribe. We are not doing fine as a government because ministers are not capable
“Tribal colonialism”
This is a very good point which should not be ignored.When resources of the country are not distributed equtably to all parts of the country nor to all tribes in the country such dicontent will always manifest amoungst the downtroden.
Lets not beat about the bush,because of the 73 tribes that are domiciled in Zambia only one has been favoured by way of appointments to all influential positions be it local or abroad as well as allocation of resources.
Zambia is bigger than one tribe and its good that at least one MP has hit the nail on the head.Can you imagine the hate that tribe will endure sho
how can one justify the amount of development going on in Muchinga provinve at the expense of the other 9 provinces and yet muchinga does not generate much revenue in…
Muchinga is a newly created province and should be elevated to habitable levels.even Livingstone here has alot of development and Luapula has not complained its one by one,their time will come, resources can’t allow develop all area simuteniously.North western is equally waiting for their turn.Your hate will kill you.Ba Shaka sometimes your comments are really not appropriate.Take it easy.
I have not spotted any insult in the speech. Someone reading insults here, may the insults were in his head. It is a very nice speech, and to the point. Expose the ‘northern tribal Evangelists’ who want to chew national resources alone.
Neither here nor there. If what Shakafuswa has said is representative of people we send to Parliament, then we are in trouble.
I’m surprised you expected anything different. This man was MP for Katuba before. Do you remember his saying or contributing anything sensible then? I don’t.
Shaka nonsense please shoot yourself and rid humanity of the worthless garbage you area. You have done nothing for Zambia or the world.All that comes out of your mouth is bad breath. Chikopo you have not made a scientific discovery. Your IQ is so low you don’t even know how to pick up a dictionary. Go back to want you are good:
1.Murder
2.Soliciting prostitutes
3.Spreading HIV
4.Battering women
5. Stealing money meant for Katuba constituency
You have nothing to offer on the world stage in any field. An animal like you cannot debate or command international leaders. 4000 something votes from illiterate villagers.

Mulichipuba tata imwe, you are the one who is an imbecile-this man is speaking the truth, and there you are hallucinating and inflaming him just because of politics of your stomach!! Grow up, Zambia is bigger than PF!
Mwana Paris are you an imbecile?I don’t understand gibberish. Can you articulate an intelligent rebuttal? Intellectual debate is beyond your IQ. Feel free to clean my toilet with a toothbrush. I need an another servant. Shaka garbage will face justice one day and may no mercy be shown to him. The murderer is not a man but a savage who:
1.Solicits prostitutes
3.Spreads HIV
4.Batters women
5.Steals money meant for the people of Katuba Constituency.

Can the honourable members of parliament and LAZ interpret what the law says about forming a parallel defence force. We are crying for a new constitution and yet we don’t even follow and enforce our laws.
Jonas Shaka, was party of the family tree of the Mwanawasa and for ten years nothing was achieved for Katuba. The little which was done through the late Hon. Gilbert Mululu.
This is a real bull. CONGRATS.
Since we already have enough laws in place and the police to maintain law and order and a democratically elected government to run the affairs of the country, we don’t even really need parliament , going by the failure to do want they are employed to do, which is merely to debate. They are just getting a lot of money for misconducting themselves.
Imwe bamakaka thats how politics are and moreover the shibuyunji guy has a right to his opinion don’t blame him shaa!!!!!
LAMENTATIONS OF MAN MARRIED INTO BANTU BO TATWE
I AM LUNDA FROM THE LUAPULA VALLEY OF LUAPULA PROVINCE.
MY WIFE IS A TONGA FROM THE GWEMBE VALLEY OF SOUTHERN PROVINCE.
OUR KIDS WERE BORN & BRED ON THE COPPERBELT.
OUR DAUGHTER IS IN HER FINAL YEAR OF STUDY OF A MEDICAL DEGREE IN UK.
TRIBAL SENTIMENTS SUCH AS:
“We people from North Western Rhodesia should unite. If we give power to these Bembas, we’ll never get it back?” By HH, & “Na muntu wafwa pamunshi, wa mukowa wafwa pamushi, mwamana kulila, mbutwakalila kuno kuli ba Chikusu, mulakala nobamukowa kubandika…simulyazhina saa… mulabika mutuba na mulabika wa mukowa?” and ‘Tribal colonization’ by Shakafuswa,
HAVE JUST COMPELLED OUR KIDS TO OPT FOR LUAPULA AS THEIR RETIREMENT HOME.
@Luapula. That is your speciality; tribal hegemony and promoting apartheid against Bantu-Botatwe. You same like boers who put blacks in bantustans as your chief tribalist membe preaches.
They are your children and they belong to luapula.
‘Minor tribe and language’. Inferiority complex! Where’s our KOLA FOUNDATION?
Yes they are useless Shakas has just repeated what Sata referred them.
Shakas we people of Zambia like your political career but we want to advise you that don’t be a party prostitute,today you go to UPND tomorrow MMD the other day pf. Stick with UPND and fight for us zambians you are a future leader of this nation Zambia.
Thanky.
What is unpalatable language in this frank speech of Shakafuswa? By the way, I had trouble reading the name of the place where this PF cadre lives!
That is the quality typical of this cow party. If only they can mature.
@ Chabwera Sr.
I did not know we have Cow Party. Do we also have Monkey Party?
Gideon should first ask for Sata to step down as he was the first to use unpalatable language as u call it. He called his MPs useless, id yots and commanded them not to shave their heads…see Shamenda and Chikwanda..they keep their receding hair…lol
Yes Shaka is right to call a spade a spade and we should continue calling them names until they perform while e are waiting for 2016 when we expect the next tripartite elections even though Sata will never call for the election. A very brave speech from Shaka and other MPs should emulate him. Personal issues aside though!
Shaka is insane and it’s like the brothel mentality is still in him nowander his language lacks a component of diplomacy
Who is this Mule Villager talking now sense after smoking too much kaponda!
Quote ” Zambia will be a laughing stork if we vote Michael Sata” Unquote. Quote” Michael sata is not presidential material” unquote. After suming up the happenings since michael sata took office in 2011 and now we do not need rocket science knowledge to make an accurate conclusion.
Is it acceptable to slander people in parliament? Provide proof or be quiet
And keep your “defence team” and your veiled threats, are you trying for Savimbi 2.0
Is this maiden speech really representing the real needs of a Katuba Constituency, a place needing development all round? Not really. I agree with your urge for non violence, but what we really need are:
good storage for our agricultural products
passable roads for us to deliver our products to selling points
clear demarcation of land and correct plans for our infrastructure
title deeds for farms and other property
transmitters by Zamtel, MTN etc. for easy communication
well staffed and equipped health centres, schools and colleges
In case you have forgotten our reason for sending you to Parliament, come back to constituency and we table these issues again.
PF is capable of looking after itself.
African in general and Zambian in particular we hate the truth. Sakas has just said exactly what is happening on the ground. PF listen in good time, it is only for your own good. Look at the issue of increasing the debt seal by 6400%, any competent minister would have not done this, but because of yama syndrome it is acceptable. PF mu chinje.
THE BOY IS USELESS AND HE WILL BE THE SECOND SHORTEST LIVED MP AFTER MWAKALOMBE , MIND UR LANGUAGE ,OTHERWISE WE SHALL EXPEL YOU AND WIN KATUBA
you pipo you in this country the truth is that we hate the truth.what shakas said there is no difference with what sata called his mps and i want to tell you that during the campaigns if you remember very well about the promises sata made i don’t know if you are folowing this game talk of the roads and health posts that was the agenda of the MMD govt and they just continued were there friends left.now talk of the 90days constitution and more money in people’s pockets,it was easy in MMD to find money and sata has tried to find means and i love the president the were he came out open to say he has got useless mps ,sata likes to work with determined people who can deliver and i want to tell this is a country not a province it need to be balanced watch out UPND is loaded with strong guys
You people hatred for sata is all you have and nothing more to offer. LETS LEARN FORM WHAT IS HAPPENING IN NORTH AFRICA AND SYRIA . You guys you want to light a bomb and run away living as the poor to fight for life while you meet in foreign hotels . Please let off mother ZAMBIA you demons in the name of Christ Jesus .
