Sixteen opposition political party leaders have written a letter to President Sata requesting for a meeting over the constitution making process.

The opposition Presidents want to discuss the release of the final draft constitution to all stakeholders and the road map leading to the adoption of the constitution.

The opposition leaders have also proposed that President Sata chairs the meeting.

This is according to an open letter released in Lusaka today.

The 16 opposition leaders include Alliance for Better Zambia President Father Frank Bwalya, UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema and MMD’s Nevers Mumba.

Others are New Generation Party President Humphrey Siulapwa and Heritage Party President Brigadier General Godfrey Miyanda.

    • Iyeeee! You asking the wrong person dear opposition. He is not Chuumbu Munshololwa for nothing.
      Bali na mu church ifyabufifye. Even witches go to church; Ba shetani aba.

  1. Thats good, I feel sad when I see people writing to the technical when we all know who the actual obstacle is to the constitution making process. What are people afraid of? Meet the man and tell him in the face to account for the money ALREADY spent on the exercise. That is tax payers money and he should tell us if PF will reimburse the tax payers.

    • Ndobo – In Bemba we say “Lesa Nimanyotola”, meaning God is never mocked.

      All hypocritics will pay dearly one on one. They will suffer until they repent.

  2. The information comming from UPND, HH will met SATA over this issue but he will be represented by his two vice presidents. He said, he would rather see his animals at one of the farms than meeting this lost man..!! watch the space..!!

  3. It must have read,, HH will not meet President SATA over this issue the opposition parties are proposing instead, he will send his two vice presidents….simple as that..!!

    • Lol! Enough damage due to poison has been done to HH by the Cobra. Can’t blame him though. After being lynched by your opponent’s thugs, and you want to meet him and reconcile. Umuntu muntu, ifyakwa Lesa fyakwa Lesa.

    • Go back to school son! Sata has short changed you. Let’s put up structures in 2016 and when you come back in 2020 on this blog you will be without blemish.

  4. There are only around five political parties in Zambia, ie PF, MMD, UPND, FDD and the party of Milupi. The rest are pocket agenda parties and must not be allowed representation at any forum”

  5. Good Show! In spite of our recent short comings Zambians are known world over as peaceful people. KK handed power to Chiluba peacefully and so did RB.
    MCS show magnanimity by accepting the meeting, It is the most honourable thing to do given that your own 90 days deadlined elapsed.

    One Zambia One Nation and New Constitution !

  6. ?I’d like to acknowledge receipt of the useless letter dated…………from the so called useless 16 political parties yapping about the so called animal oh ….human or is it people driven constitution…..’
    I have a feeling the response will sound something like this..

  7. New Generation Party? Still there somewhere in some MMD corner, still mourning the loss!! How you mocked other fellow opposition leaders while hiding behind MMD in power!! Welcome back to the stage but please stop your treacherous activities. How far have your negotiations to move into a PF corner gone?

  8. GOOD IDEA OPPOSITION PARTY.

    MEET MICHEAL SATA CHILUFYA AND REMIND HIM THE MONEY WHICH HAS BEEN SPENT ALREADY IN THIS CONSTITUTION BEING DRAFTED. AS ZAMBIANS WE NEED HIM TO COME OUT IN THE OPEN. THE WORLD IS LOOKING AT US PEOPLE WHO CAN NOT BE SERIOUS THE WAY WE ALLOW TAX PAYERS MONEY TO BE SPENT. WHY SHOULD WE LET THE PF GOVERNMENT SPEND TAX PAYERS MONEY LIKE THAT OR IS IT JUST AWAY OF MAINTAIN ALLOWANCE ON HIS FRIENDS. BUT I TRUST THAT THE TEAM IS COMPOSED OF LEARNED PEOPLE WHO ALSO MUST VOICE OUT THEIR DISAPPOINTMENTS. JUST LIKE HON. EDITH NAWAKWI HAS RIGHTFULLY REQUESTED TO FORMER CHIEF JUSTICE SILUNGWE TO COME OUT IN THE OPEN. OR ELSE HIE INTEGRITY IS ASTAKE. VIVA ZAMBIAN PEOPLE. PF IS AFAILED PROJECT UNLESS ZAMBIAN UNITY OR ELSE WE SHALL AFAILED STATE. CADRES HAVE TAKEN OVER…

  9. This is a waste of time as we know the man will just insult and spew non-sense. It is said do not argue or hang around with a fool in case you are mistaken for one. Sata does not care about anything else but maintaing power for himself even if it means imposing his son. So the opposition have to be ready for street warfare, that is the only language he understands. It’s the street of hard knock’s baby! So come hard or don’t come at all!
