PRESIDENT Michael Sata is tomorrow expected in Mkushi South to drum up support for the Patriotic Front candidate.

PF secretary general Edgar Lungu confirmed this in a telephone interview from South Africa.

Meanwhile, Vice President, Guy Scott, has concluded his campaign trail in Vubwi and Kasenengwa Constituencies where he went to drum up support for PF candidates ahead of
Parliamentary by-elections set for Thursday, September 11, 2014.

During his four day campaign trail, Dr Scott appealed to the electorate in Vubwi to vote for Magarette Miti who he said would easily spearhead development because she is a member of the ruling party.

Dr Scott, who held public rallies at various places in Vubwi, assured the people of continued development which he said was initiated by President Michael Sata.

He noted that Vubwi had seen a number of developmental projects since the PF assumed office in 2011 when it was declared a district.

The Vice President also promised the people of Vubwi that government would revise the Land Act which he said disadvantaged the local people because it allowed individuals to own big chunks of land at the expense of others.

Dr Scott observed that the local people did not have adequate land on which to cultivate as land was owned by few farmers.

In Kasenengwa, Dr Scott charged that the opposition MMD failed to deliver to the people during their 20 year rule.

He stated that President Michael Sata wanted the PF candidate, Gideon Zulu, to help him address the developmental needs of the people.

The Vubwi and Kasenengwa Parliamentary seats fell vacant following the nullification of MMD’s Eustarkio Kazonga and Victoria Kalima respectively on grounds of electoral malpractices.

Dr Scott assured the people that government would next week resume the purchase of maize from farmers and pay those who sold the grain.

The Vice President has since apologised to farmers who had to wait at depots to have their grain sold to Food Reserve Agency, saying government had halted the purchase of the commodity as it needed to verify the stocks it had procured in order to procure more maize from farmers.

Dr Scott is expected to return to Lusaka tomorrow.

Others contesting the Vubwi Parliamentary seat are Alfonso Sakala of the United Party for National Development (UPND) and Lucas Phiri of United Independence Party (UNIP).

Dr Kazonga is re-contesting the seat on the MMD ticket.

Four people are contesting the Kasenengwa Parliamentary seat, Gideon Zulu of the ruling PF, Timothy Nyirenda of the UPND and Victoria Kalima of the MMD.

    • How can a dead Sata go to Mkushi? We heard about that one in Magongo. He did not go!

      They are lying to people so that people can turn up for the rally out of curisity to see how Sata is after hibernating for over 40days.

    • I have no respect for a snake no matter what size it is. If I see one, the battle starts until I kill it .

      I hate snakes. I would never trust one with my life as Kabimba did and he is now wallowing in the valley of decision.

      Trust a snake at your peril.

    • Now PF will loose erections again. That Sata brings bad lucky in people’s lives. Zambians were well-off when he kept away. The serpent is feeling better and is in our midst.

    • ninshi nomba baumfwako bwino ba kateka? amaka nayesa nomba, abaleposha na tu skulu boyi na tu skulu gelo bulya bushiku!!! iyo mwandi, ni mwa sata muno!!! kulumba nelyo bakateka bamonekako olo banyechisushi!!! ati iyo mukwai, bakateka nabakwata amaka, nefisushi balenya??!!

  1. It wont happen. They just want to cheat us…..!!! Sata is cursed and you WILL NEVER SEE HIM AGAIN in PUBLIC. If he will comes out he will b totally ‘mute’.
    God cursed him.

    • Get a life, man. That anger is gonna kill you when the person u campaign for doesn’t even give a damn about you. From what I see, the man was probably recovering and now back to work

    • Styoped Id!ots. PF WANT SATA TO SHOW his face for 10Mins in Mkushi SO THAT EVERY ZAMBIAN will kno tht he is ALIVE & whn he FAILS TO OPEN PARLEY Vice President will try to DEFEND HIM.
      Opening Parley is a CHALLENGING & multi-tasking work.
      We kno politics u cant cheat us as if we r BABIES.
      We read between lines.
      Sata will never b USEFUL in PUBLIC life again he is CURSED.

  2. If ailing dictator Michael Sata manages to address a rally in Mkushi,ZNBC Tv should show a clip with sound,and not still photos.We are tired of being shown old still photos; we are not imbeciles.

    • In what sense is the lawfully elected President a “dictator”? It’s HH who is calling for the laws of Zambia to be ignored in order for himself to be installed as president minus an election, simply because he knows he is not popular enough and therefore he will lose. So who is trying to be the “dictator”?

  3. Don’t worry guys if he comes I’ll record him so that you can hear him speak. I really can’t wait to see HEMCS speak at a rally for that matter.

  4. AMI KUCHIFWELELA CHIKU, AMI KUCHIKUHWELA NEHI, INE UKUSHININKISHA KAMO NAMUMONA ALANDA NESHIWI LYAUNFWIKA.

    LET US WAIT AND SEE. IF HE FAILS TO TURN UP, SEPTEMBER 19 IS CLOSER WE WILL SEE HIM IN PARLIAMENT IF HE WILL EXCUSE HIMSELF FROM CAMPAIGNS.

  5. Don’t raise expectations of people and then show us still pictures……. just bring him out and surprise us all. I say “bring him out” as they are people in charge of telling him whether to come out or not. By people I mean doctors…..

  6. RESULTS-ORIENTED MAN IN ACTION. I WOULDN’T BACK IN ACTION. BECAUSE, NOT EVEN ONCE HAS HE EVER BEEN OUT OF ACTION. I WISH YOU EXCELLENT HEALTH, MR PRESIDENT.

  7. Is this what constitutes the job description of a Zambian president? After Mkushi, he will come back and take another three months nap! Meanwhile his salary has been hiked to an all time high. Talk about leading by example!

  8. Any wonder there is such a scramble to become the next president. These guys are seriously destroying the sacred legacy of the institution of presidency. It is frighteningly disgusting.

  9. If you father was not cursed for having a useless child like u, why should He curse the father of the nation? If u think he is dead then tell your father to contest the residential byelections. Foolish you.

  10. Long live the mighty cobra! great move Your Supreme Excellency, shame these political youngsters with no message for the people. (especially the sleeping cows)

    • HE HAS STATED BITING HIS OWN PEOPLE AND AFTERWARDS HE FORGET THAT I HAVE CHASED WINTER. I HEARD HIM ASKING FOR WINTER YESTERDAY. MAN OF ACTIONEER.

    • That don’t matter much as far as that being (double, ghost, body) or whatever is beating you and you accept defeat, grotesquely, though.

  11. kudos your supreme is learning from the so called political youngster, he goes to have a mammoth rally he too wants to do the same, right now your supreme is dancing to the tune of the youngster

  12. Finally HEMCS is bored sitting indoors at state house. Surely without Kabimba organizing the campaigns PF needs the man himself. We await to see him finally shown on TV speaking.

  13. Edger lungu confirmed from South africa that Sata will be in Mkushi…
    because………
    he has been sent to get medicines for Sata.
    he has been sent to see how rigging is carried out
    he has gone to ask for Asylum for MCS.

    Wait and watch this space……

  14. Styoped Id!ots. PF WANT SATA TO SHOW his face for 10Mins in Mkushi SO THAT EVERY ZAMBIAN will kno tht he is ALIVE & whn he FAILS TO OPEN PARLEY Vice President will try to DEFEND HIM.
    Opening Parley is a CHALLENGING & multi-tasking work.
    We kno politics u cant cheat us as if we r BABIES.
    We read between lines.
    Sata will never b USEFUL in PUBLIC life again he is CURSED.

    • How can you ask such a stupid question? Where have you been? Sata has rewarded us with pang a wielding idiots for voting for him and you ask us why we hate him?

  15. guy scott must be the next to be fired he is decampaigning pf how do you come up with stupid assurrances of purchasing maize from local farmers and pay them next week in the first place why did they suspend paying farmers who had already sold their maize to fra does that make sense this is because they dont have good policies in place why should you force pipo to vote for you

    • These PF thugs need to be sorted out. The man is not serious with leaderhip; to him fighting elections or is it erection is a matter of life and death. How I wished God would help the Zambian people

  16. Enough! Nkumbula was there before kaunda but he supported kaunda for the love of this country. imagine HH saying i will suport sata. Zambia needs such Tongas who does not only want a Tonga or Bemba to rule but a Zambian.
