Acting Chief Government Spokesman Mwansa Kapeya has lashed out at people spreading stories that President Michael Sata was not invited to Israel by that country’s President Shimon Peres.
Mr Kapeya said in an interview that people and organisations raising questions about President Sata’s trip are being malicious and do not mean well.
He said the Zambian Government received the letter of invitation from President Perez last month and requesting for talks with President Sata to which the Zambian Government agreed.
Mr Kapeya said spreading what he called falsehoods about President Sata’s whereabouts risk being arrested for alarming the nation.
“What is wrong with us Zambians? We tell you where the President is and you still continue raising unnecessary questions about his trip, his health and everything. Israel invited president Sata and he agreed to go there,” he said.
He added, “I have the letter from Israel in my office, I can give you a copy of the invitation letter if you are looking for evidence. As Zambians, let us not thrive in gossip. These stories that President Sata was not invited are malicious and exaggerated.”
Speculation is growing after Government confirmed that President Michael Sata is on a working holiday in Israel.
Acting Chief Government Spokesman Mwansa Kapeya announced on Sunday that President Sata had left for Tel Aviv on a working holiday and is scheduled to meet outgoing Israeli Prime Minister Shimon Peres.
It has however emerged that Prime Minister Peres is leaving for Washington D.C on Monday for a final meeting with President Barack Obama.
The Jerusalem Post and other influential Israeli newspapers are not reporting the state visit by President Sata.
President Sata is later this week expected in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea for the African Union summit which officially opens on Wednesday.
SATA IS SICK AND SLOWLY TURNING INTO A VEGETABLE-
Winter Kabimba is now the President of the Republic of Zambia- His Excellency, and Honourable Winter Kabimba the 6th President of the Republic of Zambia. What an excellent strategy this man has coined- what is sucker punch to Chikwanda and Lungu- they have been caught knapping- the means doesn’t matter but what matters is the end- and Bwana Kabimba will be smiling all the way to the bank.
first of all Peres is not PM but president of Israel. secondly, why should you arrest a citizen who believes the president was not invited? On what charge will the arrest be made? you dont arrest someone based on their beliefs, otherwise we should arrest christians, muslims, hindus and all that lot because they have beliefs which can not be proven in any court of law. Ba kapeya just stop using jaribu, it is now bleaching the little you had of brains!!!!!
Sata’s time to join those he laughed at when in opposition is fast approaching. Levy, Kunda, Chiluba and Mazoka are calling him.
Kapeya – You think this is a Joke. Seems as though your level of wisdom doesn’t correspond with your age, the earlier been 60 years behind. Start by arresting yourself for LYING even at such an Old Age.
Instead of debating where Ukwa is month in month out, let’s simply demand he steps down and goes to rot in Mpika. That was no one will really care about his ware bouts.
This is a timely reminder and rightfully so
People do you know what Anorexia nervosa is?
The president may have that, and that is not sickness
I know he is fine.
I believe the government and not a group of innuendos, here at LT.
Thanks
“Abena Zambia mwaliba bwino nomba pantu mukonkluda.”-Singing.
Leaving on falsehoods. PF folks cant believe he is gone. They simply do not have any life without Sata in the picture.
I propose Given Lubinda steps his gear up.
Please leave us alone Mr Kapeya.This is our only past time because we are unemployed and we have a lot of time on our fingers.We want to continue spreading lies.
Some would argue that our dear leader was always a vegetable and there are also some who think that vegetables should not be maligned by being compared to our Kays Katongo.
Lol! Ba Mwansa, who can you arrest naimwe!
circus pa zed. mwansa kapaya. stop being irrelevant, arresting people for what? you have told us sata is in isreal, let us digest the information and compare notes. the guest is out of the country and visit’s duration is unspecified, no pictures to show his arrival, working holiday to woo investors but why alone and leave out commerce minister and other line ministries? doesnt just add up. so it must be a lie simple.
Lies have short legs!
You can hide a terminal illness but you won’t hide the coffin!
If anything, the minister of misinformation and group are the ones alarming the nation by denying what we saw and heard for ourselves!
Keep dreaming!
I think I have located where Sata is in Israel Tel aviv. He is admitted at Asuta Tourist medical Centre which specialises in cancer treatment. Its ranked the one of the best in the world. This is the centre ‘s phone number +972-3-7643247. The receptionist I spoke to declined to give any details but said they are only allowed to answer the patients’ listed phone numbers.******
So when the government said Sata has gone on holiday, its true because the ASSUTA medical centre also offers tourism packages alongside treatment. Patients also go site seeing as part of the treatment program. How ever he has not gone there on a working but a cancer treatment holiday.From the way he looks, his cancer is advanced.

There is a new development. Sata is actually at Hadassah toursit medical centre +972-2-6779111 in tel Aviv Israel. They have confirmed that there is African high profile patience in their care who arrived a few days ago and that he is a critical condition. But they declined to give the name and country where he is from. They provide air ambulance services from any part of the world. So if Sata left by helicopter, the air ambulance must have picked him up either in Harare Zimbabwe or South Africa .Finally Sata has been located. They can run but they can not hide away.
Now is the time to stay focussed and pray for a smooth transition of power with out bloodshed. I am worried about the intra party violence within the PF once all stake holders get the truth that Sata has weeks to live.
Chi Mwansa Kapeya na masaya uku kashika, chi le bepa nesoni iyo, pumbafu weyo!!
Antonio is right. The President is not PF property. He is President today not because of PF but because Zambians voted for him to be President of Zambia.
The money being used is tax-payers’ money. How I pray that one day soon Zambians will make government officials, individually and severally, account for how they use state funds. In Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Sweden, Norway, USA, etc a head of state cannot “disappear” or travel to any country without the foreknowledge of the people. In those countries, even 25 cents spent outside approved budget has to be publicly explained. Ooh. Do you wonder why they are highly developed and the State is able to look after ALL their citizens?
That just does not happen. In zambia, it has been happening but only under PF. Well, PLEASE STOP…
We are waiting for cargo…. God has a way of getting rid of evil. May is soul rest in hell
No Olay, Sata is sick and RAPIDLY turning into a vegetable.
Yes just arrest them, maybe when you take them to court we get truth from the testimonies.
Why is this Comedian acting when Dr Joseph Katema is in Lusaka? For as long as he remains president we will continue requesting where he is minute in minute out.
Let’s all have this TERMINALLY ILL PATIENT removed please, and let’s start process now. We need a physically fit head of state.
OldRugsOUT
You are going on about President Sata dying I hope you die before him.
You have no right to wish or insinuate on anyone;s death. I though
you are much smarter than that, of course you are not.
You biological mistake, stop it. I demand you stop it now.
Thanks
Mushota
Definitely not with what I saw on TV and heard last Thursday. He definitely is going before I do.
@Nostradamus
surely whats wrong with saying that Sata has go to jordon river in isreal to be baptized so the he can be healed?? ,,,,, this secrency around Sata is what is fuelling rumours,,,,, when i was growing up, my grandfather told me never to hide if and when i contracted bolabola,,,, because i would get helped,,,,even if people laughed at least i will get help and healed……
uyo jacob Zuma his HIV diarrhea has started,,,, he has official taken sick leave not a working holiday to isreal
Cut the crap you good for nothing uncle toms! everyone knows that the old bastard is in Israel for treatment! who the hell are you trying to fool?
Die already, c h i k a l a! we are tired of spending our hard earned cash on your sick a s s!
@mushota, you can suck my black mushroom tip!
#THE FIST FOR PRESIDENT!
@Ndobo, kekekeke baptism ka, can even swim that man we are talking about? He better stay in Tel Aviv, not go to Jerusalem. Jesus entered Jerusalem, and he never came out fit.
It is Govt spreading lies about the whereabouts of President Sata. We are all just feeding on your lies since the ZWD exposed your shameful lies. Nobody asked you to claim that Sata will be meeting Peres in Tel Aviv. Nobody asked to to keep his travel plans a secret that never was. Infact you should have known by now that there is no hiding place a “foul mouth” like Sata.
It will also help you to accept that the nation knows that Sata has travelled to seek medical attention and nothing else.
Steve Jobs, Hugo Shavez are among the high profile dignitaries that’s fallen to Cancer. Ukwa is next to follow with his Prostate Cancer. He is dying whether they want to accept it or not.
why is the president working instead of seeking health attention. the government should pretending and pray for forgiveness for the lies and ask zambians to pray for sata. simple and straight forward. not what there are doing because the know wynter kabimba is not popular among zambians including in PF the put him as acting president so that we are forced to pray that the president returns safely
Fyabukaya Guy indeed!Time is coming for these Guys to dance to pelete
Arresting citizens for requesting were ‘their’ president is? its a new low
OK BOSES, I think, sir you are talking about two charges here
1) Spreading falsehoods
2) Alarming the nation
I think on charge 1 you need to arrest yourself and your entire team lying to the nation that Sata was at Statehouse and faking the Guard at the statehouse Gate
On Charge 2, you need to arrest all the people at ZNBC for showing that video clip of a president looking frail and speaking in a frail voice. That was ALARMING the nation!!
There you have it boss. Can madam Libongani make the move please.
Please take out ZNBC folks out of the picture. It’s high time PF realised they need to move on without him.
But from where I seat, they simply can’t. Do not know where to start, not with Jockers like ifyabukaya.
Zambians have no real issues to discuss, what do you expect ba Kapeya ? You have a population that feeds on gossip,rumours,sex,alcohol and corruption.Intellectualism died a long time ago in Zambia.Stopping them will bore them to death forcing them into more harder vices like illicit drugs and prostitution.
Ha ha ha ninshi imwe ulubuli ?
Please take out ZNBC folks out of the picture. It’s high time PF realised they need to move on without him.

So Mr Kapeya if you want to preserve the little decency that has remained allow them to continue spreading lies.It is at least giving them something to do.
@ SAULOSI FOR ONCE I AGREE WITH YOU IT IS BECAUSE WE ALWAYS VOTING WRONG PEOPLE WHO CAN’T DO ANYTHING FOR THE COUNTRY SO THEY ARE ALWAYS ON THE SPOT LIKE THE USELESS PF
PF has killed professionalism among Zambians. Because of their stupid way of running presidential affairs, we are all left to speculate about everything. The civil service stopped working a long time ago because of political spidery.
In this modern world it is only USA who can keep a secret as they have the means to block all sites in the world. Bakapeya you are living in the era of ifyabukaya .
Even the US is being haunted by the monster they created. There are no permanent secrets in the world any more. Every secret is now short lived even in North Korea.
Kapeya you know that ” to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction”. Therefore if you arrest any body speculating on the president health, you all PF minions risk going to jail for lying about the president death if he dies while on a working holiday. The post mortem will reveal how long he has had the illness that will have killed him.So be careful what you say because your own words will come to haunt you soon when the whole truth escapes from your mouths as some has already started escaping from Kabimba’s mouth. Any move to displace Kabimba, he will spill the beans and tell the nation the truth.Enjoy the lying episodes while they last .
Sata’s time to join those he laughed at when in opposition is fast approaching. Levy, Kunda, Chiluba and Mazoka are calling him.
It is you who Mazoka is calling for. What “peaceful transition of power” are you dreaming about? If you get your evil demonic wish come true and ba Sata passes away before HH passes away, HH will still lose the election. Or maybe you think HH will be installed by Obama or God via some foreign military force? You should seek advice from a psychiatrist on your mental state my friend, and encourage your friends to do so as well
You already know the people saying that. Go get them.
Your threats about arresting this one and arresting that one are fast becoming like a parent who keeps threatening his or her child with “nalakuma” every time.
@Saulosi, the internet is your friend. President Shimon Peres is expected in the USA To meet with delegates Tuesday. The only person who should be arrested is Mwansa Kapeya because he is the only liar here! Trust all news outlets in the USA will be showing images!
Sata cheated his way into state house but he wont cheat death. According to ba popi something happened while sata was on the plane forcing the plane to change course.
Preparations are being completed for Israeli President Shimon Peres final official visit to the US as head of state. Among the events and meetings being planned in conjunction with the primary purpose of President Peres is the Congressional Gold Medal Ceremony scheduled to place on Thursday, June 26 in the Rotunda of the US Capitol.
Hahaha lies are slowly catching up with you ba-Swine. Trying to put yourselves at the level of USD president…with diarrhoer oozing behind won’t help. Reproduce the invitation letter for proof that your leader was invited.
Iwe ka Mwansa Kapeya where are the pictures of Sata arriving in Tel Aviv which is not the capital of Isreal. The capital is Jerusalem, so ba mambala, the day of reckoning is slowing catching up on you PF liars.
I think president Sata has an appointment with Shimon Perez. Can the PF come up with such a blantant lie imwe sure?
People just be patient – you will see the picture of the president with the Israeli outgoing president. Then now you will start saying they are doctored and so on and so forth.
However, while in Israel, i agree, the president should visit a specialist hospital and rest for one month so that by the time he is coming back, he will be fit and healthy again.
The difference between the time of the Late President LPM (mhsrip) and now is the calibre of Ministers we had at this time.
Didn’t have dunderheads and comedians, like we do now.
Kapeya just show us the pictures full stop. We dont want Ukwa Malingaling using tax payers money. Sata is our servant for goodness sake. How can a servant just run away from work without informing his employers (voters) where he has gone.
Kabimba is a sadist to be Acting President unless the Cartel knows the Satanic deaths that Sata is associated with.
according to the pf micheal was right to mock others in sickness but it is now an offence to just ask whether or not the president is well.anyway i wish levy could see how the one time laughing cycle mata is now,frail voice,pale face,falling hair and a generally failing body, i mean we all saw it on znbc.so ba kapeya spare us the squillor nonsense
This muppet , Mwansa Kapeya is not only dull but also a sewer rat, probably even worse. Let him arrest himself and fellow muppets in PF whose only skill is to peddle lies. What’s wrong with admitting that Sata is a mortal like any of us and that he is sick but will likely recover? To say that Sata is not sick and is actually enjoying the best of health is what should be construed as a crime.
Kapeya please do not insult our intelligence and you idle threats are really silly.When has it become a crime to know the whereabouts of the president.You PF morons your days are numbered.
Cut the crap you good for nothing uncle toms! everyone knows that the old bastard is in Israel for treatment! who the hell are you trying to fool?
Die already, c h i k a l a! we are tired of spending our hard earned cash on your sick a s s!
#THE FIST FOR PRESIDENT!
When the president finally receives his appointment at the gates no intercession will help him due to the lies and secrecy surrounding his failing health as Zambians are getting tired and irritated at the arrogance of those whose life they sustain in taxes! Why threaten to arrest those believing there is another ‘cabbage’ in state house?
u zambian no wonder u dont progres u spend to much time debating non isues,sure in this era can an illness be a motion to debate no wonder one president said “u think with yo tribe not with yo brain”i wil not name the tribe he refered to for security reasons
No one gets pride in discussing MCS poor health despite him being a sadist. I hope other leaders have learned a lesson in with this happening. These PF guys are now behaving like headless chickens being. Controlled by Mmembe. Where is little boy Chellah to post on Facebook for his boss? ‘Wina azalila’!
I shudder at what I see happening in this country. Sometimes the Bible seems so off reality but we are preview to a unique event: ‘This is a text book case of reaping what you sow’ The man needs to repent that’s his only way out!
Mr: kapeya; you think that your position is like ifya bukaya; that position is important and one day you will be held accountable, or Kabushya takolewe bowa;
This Kapeya is really a f00lish man to say the least. Those days are gone where you scare people with arrest. We understand and we will not stop asking and speculating for as long you d0gs continue monkeying around. It seems Sata is on his dying bed no wonder these pricks are becoming more agitated by the day!
So much for freedom of speech — in this day and age shuwa!
#OneZambia
Ok, we hear you – so where is he?
A Government of jokers! There is nothing wrong with a President falling ill, but there is everything wrong with creating the type of circus that we have seen from what are supposed to be Government officials. Jokers! the lot of them!
We got so used to exhibitionist presidency tendencies that we think we must stay in the same dispensation. I think it is alright to use alternate sources of information and determine the truth by verification. Nothing wrong. What we now need is an authentic government machinery.
Why did the President leave behind his PF journalists (Pfost and ZNBC)? Who is going to document his fruitful efforts of wooing Investors? Another Don’t Kubeba played on Zambians. VEEP always carries along his Effieh Mpande, and we see what he does out their. We pay the President, he is using our money, let us be in the know.
Ba Kapeya twaufwa but can you please enlighten me as to how much of my money the president will be using in Isreal or it is an all paid trip. Just let me know and I will be totally grateful. My concern has been on the one month, it is too long baba……
That’s how dumb PF is. They can even go to the extent of throwing somebody in jail for merely inquiring about Sata`s condition.
In any case here is a statement from todays Jerusalem Post;
“President Shimon Peres is set to leave Israel in the pre-dawn hours between Monday and Tuesday for his final presidential trip to the United States”.
Now which Peres is Sata having meetings with.
This will end in TEARS.
Why do we Zambians hate each other so much like this? This is a time for us to unite and not fighting one another. Let’s fight the chaps that are stealing our mineral resources instead of spending valuable time debating the presidents health.
Fyabukaya man, get yourself arrested first for spreading lies about Sata’s where abouts.
This government is delusional, Do Zambian’s not have freedom of speech and expression?? They are slowly turninh Zambia into a dictatorship state, we need a democratic state!! So long African’s have been fooled into believing we have no money, how come then these western and Asian powers are getting rich off us, open your eyes people. That is all, good day
fyabukaya you wasted my time searching Perez’s facebook, website and his schedule for any signs of our President, no mention of Sata anywhere, maybe you need to check facts again before arresting innocent people. Mushota with her Phd needs to teach you how to lie better
Karma is really a b.i.t.c.h !Mwanawasa,chiluba,Tetamashimba,George Kunda were all taunted by Sata during their sickness.Sata remembers.This is why he is making frantic efforts to hide his sickness.
well in this day and age where the world is literally in ones palm i wish him and the govt the best in hiding the sickness.
The location and contacts details as obtained by the Zambianwatchdog for Assuta, which is the Israel’s largest and leading private medical services are: 20 Habarzel St, Ramat Hachayal, Israel, phone number +972-3-7643247, Tel Aviv 69710, Fax: +972-3-7643248, Email: [email protected]
MCS ,although sick, loves to travel.
At the labour day celebrations in his own country he stayed only 10 mins.
Tax payers money in use……
viva Zambia.
Peres Leaves for Final Foreign Visit in Office
President Shimon Peres travelled to Washington on Monday night for his last foreign visit before leaving office next month, his office said.
“Peres will depart tonight on a diplomatic visit to the United States of America in what will be his final foreign trip” before stepping down in July at the end of his seven-year presidency, a statement quoted by AFP said.
During the visit, Peres will seek to “enlist support for the campaign to return the three kidnapped Israelis” and will also hold talks with President Barack Obama on Iran’s nuclear program.
yayayayay sure ba kapeya sure try the zambians i think you are indian
Not long tym ago ba kapeya balifya ba fisela.But now he has authority to arrest pipo.I detest pipo that abuse power and being big headed.
Go to Assuta Tourist medical Center site and read for yourselfs its clear. When a senior head of state goes into any developd countries, there local papers there will mention the purpose of the trip. Its clear in black and white.
Don’t take Mwansa kapeya seriously, he thinks he is on ifyabukaya radio show
Ask VJ, ati Mwanawasa is in London jogging!
At one time Sata challenged Rupiah Banda to produce the invitation letter when he traveled to a named country in Europe.
Why can’t they just produce the same instead of just issuing threats?
Any logical thinker would question the credibility of claims that he was invited because Israel media has indicated the person he is claiming to have invited him is in the USA
This comedian doesnt know what is talking about. Given Lubinda was the right person for that position. Batata aba bu dull buli napamenso
just a question, which Zambian reporters did he go with to take meeting proceedings and pictures for the post front page? why were we not informed earlier on about the invitation as it came a long time ago.How has the government managed to talk abt the other meeting in Africa. I blv the trip was am emergency one. between death and life.
Ubupuba is free of charge! Peres arrived in the USA today. There is no way in the world he would cancel a trip to his biggest ally for a bunch of crooks masquerading as politicians. Shame on you Mr. Radio Comedian and yes we will speculate about your boss’s health and whereabouts until Kingdom Come, shaaaaa!
It is unfortunate that the employers of the Zambian President who are the Zambian people do not know exactly what the President is doing in Israel. The bible says the truth will set you free. My advise to the minister is that don’t threaten the Zambian people because they have right to know what their president has gone to do. Or have you forgotten that he has used tax payers money to go to Israel?
