United Party for National Development (UPND) Leader Hakainde Hichilema has said that it was absolutely necessary for Zambians to know the health status of President Michael Sata.
Mr. Hichilema says the call by the Foundation for Democratic Process (FODEP) urging Members of Parliament to constitute a medical board for the President is a clear indication that President Sata is loved by Zambians and this is the reason why people are concerned to know his well being.
Mr. Hichilema said that it was also important for government to accept the fact that Zambians are entitled to know the health of their President with no strings attached.
He said that giving Zambians a clear position on the President’s health will help bring about an end to debate on his health.
The UPND leader added that Zambians have continued to pray for the president so that he can continue to work and address the many challenges they are facing.
Please google ABC news and Michael Sata. NYPD says he was treated in his hotel room by doctors after missing his scheduled speech at UNGA. Saulosi and Mushota, you should have told your uncle that the USA is not Zambia. They have no media black out! He should have stayed at state house to start with!
To think his wife let him tag along on this journey is stupidity on her part. And to think is is an MD is really worrisome. That man will prop ably die in transit. What an embarrassment for the Zambian government. Sending a visibly sick man to such an event!
I just checked Newsweek. They are saying he may have died Thursday morning. Trust the USA will not hide any thing.
There is no credence and there is no need to tell the nation about the well beings of a president.
Who tells the USA that mr Obama has a cold , flu or has diarrhoea
I have never understood Africans mentalities
The president is fine trust me when I say this. I believe in every fibre of my being that this smoke screen will all disappear when the dust settles
Thanks
But the opposition is week in Zambia sure!! If Sata was in opposition and the sitting president was sick like Sata is today, just imagine the jokes and insults he would have been directing at State house. Ama Zambians mulamutina cobra iyi??
when i was young, playing with wire cars in Zambia,,, i was taught that you dont say that an elderly person is sick or ill,,, its disrespectful!!!,,, you say that elder person “is feeling well when asked
Even when elders go to the toilet and you are asked “they` where abouts as young person,,,,, you say `they` have gone to the market or `they“are sleeping or “they“ are bathing
What love does the pedestrian politician have for anyone when he is in fact the devil himself?
its a shame that even the devil can use the word love
Abena Charlie Kays batobeka ka..I wish ba Doctor Kaseba would have said ati please no travel while sick but obviously that was the last trip and chance for all 40 people to go and hide money in USA banks. Good bye Charlie Kay..Ichalo lipupa fye ba Man of action
When you have people who have lost hope of ascending to power through normal means , they are tempted to think that the only way to get to power is if their opponent dies.
@Mushota,
Your sickening sarcasm is no longer funny, what are you hoping to achieve?
I was so much in prayers when I head Ba Sata was coming over. America is not a country for the sick. Even just a cough they will encourage someone to just die.
Start counting from Michael Jackson
Just go and campaign you Sunny Chitombwa ! Stop wasting your time talking about Sata`s health.
Folks
Jokes aside. Its time to be calm and encourage each other that all will be fine should nature take its course. Lets remain focussed on what the country needs to achieve and take each day as it comes.
Anything is highly possible anytime from now.
President Sata was voted into power by Zambians, his mandate is from Zambians and therefore, Zambian have the right to know the health status of the president. President Sata is not a king and Zambia not a kingdom. We have to sober up. Why did the president fail to represent us at the UN General Assembly despite having traveled to New York on tax payers’ money?
Is hard to fathom that the first Lady who is a medical doctor was happy to see her sick husband make a transatlantic flight, and happy to have him appear at the United Nations to give a speech in his weakened state.Perhaps those certificates on A4 paper which she was awarded were more important to her. OR maybe we shouldn’t be hard on her perhaps speaking at the UN was on Sata’s bucket list…who knows! I hope Zambians will wake up and see that we need a new constitution.Sata should have been made to resign a long time ago but the parasites he has around him prevailed.
I don’t want to start something here, but Newsweek is reporting that comrade Sata may have died today Thursday 25th September. I think the story is probably a fake alarm, but one thing is clear, Sata came here to the USA for medical attention and not for work. PF cadres need to accept that there serpent is very seek and may be better off taking rest. Let him take a 1 year sabbatical vacation in India or China.
Aluta Continua!!!
@The Bricklayer; I read on most USA media that he wasn’t taken to hospital after he was treated. Now am worried about what you have just said!
Zambia reports is saying the story about death is false, but that yes he underwent emergency treatment most of the day today. He collapsed in a hotel room in the big apple. Good luck to him and his family. I don’t like him, but I don’t wish him death.
President Sata hospitalized in New York hospital… Just reported by Channel 4 news at 11 pm…..
Are you in NY? which channel 4 are you referencing?
NBC ..Brick Layer
Well said HH.& May God grant the president a quick recovery.These are the reasons why most vultures are always reluctant to take over.
You know how death works? You could find that HH who wants a bye election fails to make it as the Lord may call him earlier than Sata. Please do not joke about death because any can die at any time sick or not.
Ndaje kahks God forbid don’t case HH. It is clear Sata is very sick. Why should HH die early than Sata do you want to kill him.This why tribalism is to bad vice,how would some chose a presidential candidate who is terminaly sick. Even in 2011 sata could hardly speak for than 20minutes and yet pipo saw it fit to elect him leaving out abl bodied and Educated pipo like HH,Nawakwi who are both Economists,Chipimo a lawyer and many more.Zambians you deserve this embarrassment because we are so bad pipo.If Zambia was truly a Christian nation our chose of our leaders would Good .Such are the qualities 1.God fearing a husband or wife of one person.2.higly educated with demonstrated ability to govern not rule.3.A person with a strong family -Upright children who can not influence their father to…
Just Leave HH ALONE.
This matter is beyond politics now. It is a concern. And to say the President is well and working is so unfair. Does this man have relatives who really love him? Surely, they should come out and speak on his behalf.
The President did not read the speech at the UN. Can you explain that? Come on. We are not children. And please, you are being callous by saying the President is well when the pictures show him looking frail. We are not seeing the man for the first time, please. Are you that hard?
The devil is a thief and a liar. I make reference to HH.
Iwe chi 2020Visionless……!! your papa is gone NEVER TO BE SEEN in Politics again. He went to USA SPECIFICALLY FOR MEDICATION alas he collapsed again.
He is a CURSED CREATURE we all know him !!!!
Imwe balekeni ba 2020vision abo ba puba. He likes burying his head in the ground with his a$$ in the air for ease of access in case Kudos comes skipping along. You expect to get anything sensible from such a twat?
2020Vision was your mother a whore? i may be your father?
Arm Pit, you feel better now…having insulted 2020Vision? Stupi.d wanker.
These expletive responses from UPND cadres such as dudelove, Andersin, Armpit are exactly why UPND will always be classed as a Satanic Political Party full of bitterness and hatred. Comrade Kaliko don’t mind them this is how they were brought up by their sorry parents, they are full of insults and always fail to articulate national issues. I pity these buffoons.
and your calling HH a devil is cool? That is why you will remain an a$$hole together with your ka snot-nossed, sh!t-faced supporter Kaiko.
A serious case of mistaken identity.
I think it is quite clear that the “devil is a thief and a liar” is in fact SATA!
Time for a brain examination for you.
@dudelove and the rest, if HH can have supporters like you that incessantly fail to comment on issues without using terrible swear words as you quite predictably resorted to above what does that make him??? The man is satanic to have people like you and ZWD a vipers’ nest of seditious rumour mongering as his supporters. I pity not you but your sorry parents. Shame mwana.
Ka 20/20. You just threw the first stone with your absolutely ludicrous immature and moronic input for a man who has no interest or concern in what you do or say…thus effectively goading those that are level headed and then twist it around….you are sick….a breakdown is on the cards for you, like Mushota now spreading her laundry about “Nick” on this site. Truth be told…we should have been told sooner. The whole UN general assembly knows and also wants answers as well now. Come clean so we can help you, is what the Zambian people and the world are asking now. We don’t need retards like you anymore 20/30.
Ooh Puuleeez ba 2020, trying to play innocent? You think i do not read all those comments where you throw Me, Wanzelu and a few others in a bucket and unleash your insults? You want to play the saint card now? LOL is right, as always. You open a can of worms and then you try and squirm under the guise of innocent by-stander? Give me and my friends here a collective break dude.
@lol (same blogger by the name of dudelove) only a really desperate, deceitful liar uses 2 or more usernames as you often do. I enjoy reading your attacks it brings out the true sick individual that you are, an empty bucket full of noise and insults please continue for all to read how shallow minded you and others with same deceitful minds are. Shame.
Ba 2020vision, I am not as childish as you if you enjoy changing names, me-no- play-like-that capisce? The fact is more people share my views than they do yours and you know this hence your little pathetic attempt to assign me more identities. Thats why I can tell your little ‘lol’ is done with a closed mouth and tears of frustration running down your face. Swallow that lump clogging your throat before you choke dammit. I do not want to be accused of killing your sorry butt.
@dudelove are those same “more people” that share your views that won your Party ONLY 1 seat out of 6 (the very one seat in Solwezi Central only by a small margin due to poor campaigning on our part). If that is the case then sorry Mr dudelove voting is only allowed once in THE REAL WORLD unlike online where deceitful chaps like you can repost and change your usernames..Shame mwana.
2020vision, even you cannot be this dull. You truly believe you won those seats fair and square? Do you truly believe your stup!d party did not coerce voters by dishing out money and starting projects that were never on any prior agenda? Let us not be deliberately naive just to win an argument. I would respect you more if you were realistic. For example, if you told me why you think HH is the devil, I would really much appreciate it because all you do is tout this declaration around without offering evidence and please do not talk about the mines because I will shove so much financial and procedural information about the role of a liquidator so far up your butt you will be puking trial balances! So there’s a challenge.
@dudelove please go ahead with your “so much financial and procedural information” oh highly educated and knowledgeable one, yet with a mouth and tongue or better still mind of an evil interbreed hence my calling you quite rightly a cretin. Ethics, mwaiche your uncle HH is a crook that as an agent undervalued the mines for his own personal gain simple.. spin it any which way you want. As for the the elections if you thought you would lose why did you stand????Ba highly educated one please enlighten me on that one??? Also your uncle HH is clearly a known satanist anyone that can fund Zambian Watch Dog that often reports 99% lies is a supporter of lies and who is the master of lies??? Yes Mr dudelove the master/ masters of lies is/ are the devil and his followers in the case HH and you.
2020vision, all the sh!t you’re spewing is just hearsay. We deal with hard facts and evidence and the stuff you’re blubbering about is gossip that just went viral and was consumed as the truth by shallow, non analytically people like you. And please, do not get your faded knickers in a twist over my education because I will make no apologies for the stuff I know. The mines had liabilities that far exceeded their net assets. Just that point decimates your emotional rant. Of course UPND had to stand whether they knew the would lose, why do you think they are called a political party? To cheer other parties on? Cosmo Mumba has that area covered. What evidence do you have that HH funds WD? Do you have bank statements like the ones we saw for sata receiving unexplained monies in his account?
@dudelove so even the independent election monitors along with ECZ, and the fact that your own party accepted their monitoring and declaring of the elections as “free and fair”, YOU still say those elections weren’t. I mean then why accept the 1 (ONE) seat you won if that is the case??? As I mentioned above “spin it any which way you like” it is a known fact your uncle HH suddenly became a millionaire after the privatization of Roan Copper Mines and he maintained a close relationship with Chiluba right up to the time of Chiluba’s death. Truth hurts people like you that are incapable of normal debate, but you are not representative of most Zambians thank God for that. Shame, but we will pray for you and all the best with your studies mwaiche I think you need it.
even jesus was called a devil by people like you (Matt 9:34) for your own info HH is a christian and seventh Day Adventist.
it is not that we like HH, i think that the guy is too serious for politics and you are right he does not make a charismatic politician like Chiluba or Obama.
but he has one thing that both of these political characters don’t have or didnt have and that is Economic success. he has no lies like Sata who promised heaven in 90 days and was only able to change names of airports as his greatest 90 days achievement.
you could be paid to write rubbish about HH, but one thing remains you and me, Sata and HH we are all Zambians and this land is our cake to share and let each one be given an opportunity to contribute with the ability God has given.
@ARMPIT what hole did you come from and can please go back, even this dudelove chap is making more sense than you, useless cretin you are.
As I said…breakdown…apa pa intanet.
For HH’s own information, the Zambians know that their president is very sick and recovering and receiving treatment in USA. Zambians are not stoopid not to know the state of the president’s health even though state house has not confirmed this. SO instead HH must be pushing state house to simply openly accept the truth!
Reading above, you can see that the real thugs, NOT HH, are slugging each other with insults. If I was a top cop like Ms Libongani and Jere, I would keep an eye on these dangerous bloggers. These chaps can bring a “Rwanda” if not watched carefully. Heleisa Haleisa, Gen, Kudos, Mushota etc…those are dangerous thugs.
Newsweek is reporting that he has died. This is worrying.
I as a human being who Knows god Jehova would not wish Sata to die.However its a fact that Sata benefited from the death of 1.Mazoka in 2006 to boost his results.2.The death of Mwanawasa in 2008 and lastly the death of Chiluba who was his stambling block.This an open secreat had these pipo not died Sata would not have been president of Zambia today.God design certain things in such a way that man can not plan evil to succeed on another man.He looks at the heart of someone.If you voted for Sata for genuine reasons of development he may grant him long life.If you voted for him because you wanted him to persecute other pipo against the chosen one of God then he will not leave long.
mean while you have evil minds
upnd supporters bikeniko bola panshi thats not the way to go to plot one wishing someone dead in order for u to take up a position will neva work. dont you know that you a hindering yo hh break thru to plot one? Gods hates revenge and lets bech if in 2 months times we hold by elction, you can manage to plot one teti!
Using God`s name in vain!. your personal haterage for HH will make you blaspheme the Lord!
Chanda Ponda….
You see everything and everyone who seeks clarification about the state of health of the President as UPND!! What a myopic way of thinking. You do not have to belong to any party to vote. It is a constitutional right for every Zambian to vote but it is not a constitutional obligation to belong to a political party. In an MMP system of voting you only chose one name of a person for MP and then chose which party should be in power. I was going to explain this but it is a waste of time seeing the kind of reasoning from some of these bloggers.
HH knows all very well that his only chance to ascend to office is in event of a by- election. That said, it would be prudent to note that if that occurrence does not prevail, his own party will lose faith in his leadership if he loses the next election.
DONT TALK ABOUT HH . TALK ABOUT THE CRUEL AND UNCARING PF CABINET.
PF CABINET INCLUDING THE WIFE TO SATA ARE VERY CRUEL. WHY SHOULD YOU ALLOW SUCH A SICK PERSON TO TRAVEL THAT FAR. I WROTE HERE BEFORE THE PRESIDENT WAS TO GO USA. I HUMBLY SAID MULENGA SATA MUST PUT THE FOOT DOWN TO STOP THE PF CRUEL
If you are not popular in Eastern, Muchinga, Lusaka, Copperbelt, Northern, Luapula, and Central Provinces you can not be a President of Zambia. Remember Southern Province taught Zambians how to vote.
njalamimba Musonda your analysis is wrong.Mazoka won only that he was dribbled .he lost in northern,Luapula,Eastern,coperbelt and Lusaka but won in parts of Lusaka,southern,Central,western and North western.So its possible to win from 4 provinces under simple majority as other candidates Share in other province but loose terribly in other.HH got 568:000 votes compared to Sata who got 1200:000votes in 2011.so HH got to nearest half of what Sata got.Seriously speaking HH is far away from what Chipimo got who I feal he will perform far much better in 2016.Iam seeing HH wining the presidential race even with few MPS under the current constitution .The new system of transmiting results will make rigging very difficulty for PF with Kabimba ,Mulongoti and Mbita away from the system PF will certa
I am Zambian but I am not keen to know so excludes me HH. You seem to think you are superhuman and you will not be sick at some point in your life? We al know that the President is not well so what? If we are human enough then let us pray for him to recover instead of talking all sorts of nonsense. HH you do not have anything substantial to offer me as a Zambian except talking about Sata’s sickness? Shame on such politicians. To be in opposition is to offer an alternative the the ruling party so what is your alternative? I will NEVER waste my vote voting for oppositions that are full of nothing but cheap politics.
Good, at least you can keep 202vision company as both of you bury your heads in the sand with your a$$es in the air. You may be Zambian but you are not a normal Zambian if you are not interested in knowing your head of state’s health. That just makes you a shallow Zambian with no inkling that the health of the president has far reaching effects over all Zambians so enjoy swallowing sand and getting a tan on your black bum. Twat.
Ka Dudelove,
Yeah, that’s the spirit, fire your insults…jerk off.
Oh don’t worry yourself about me kaiko my little faggoty friend, you don’t need to cheer me on, I got this, but thanks for the encouragement.
1.1 Nostradamus: You made a valid observation which bloggers did not see. America is a country where no body cares. Dont play with CIA. I was chatting with a friend over SATA in USA, it clear that if he comes back alive, then Zambians should thank God. For those wh went to hide the stollen money, may as well forget about it. Dr Kaseba, you are not different from Maureen Mwanawasa who sucked the husband through these foreign trips till death in a foreign land,. If it was true that Kalaba is having an affair with Kaseba, for them its honeymoon while SATA is gaggling for his death as if he is a street kid. What is the point to ascend to power only to benefit the ticks around you at the expense majority Zambians. God does not play DICE
Your rants are marabishi , marrabishi indeed.
I don’t mind what happens.I still remember how Sata used to ridicule Levy. Lelo ni lelo mwamona nomba.Tapali ukufisa.Some people were going to be insulting ZWD for reporting the same
Zambian bloggers at their best. Instead of reading comments on the topic at hand I am witnessing a slug-fest amongst and between bloggers. A real failure to tolerate different points of view. Pathetic.
Bo HH please just campaign, don’t bank on the death of Sata for you to go to plot 1… no non no baba. You sound so devilish and evil. And do not pretend you love Sata instead speak the truth that you hate Sata to the core.
I wait for that time when you shall repent of your evil will against Sata. Remember life of any person is in the hands of God, if God wants, he can take you first before Sata. Thus, HH behave yourself.
your mother was a whore. who is the devil your mother or HH.
Some bloggers can be extremely hopeless. Is the hatred for HH so deep that we can be blinded from reality; that we have a huge problem at hand and that is about the Preaident being very ill? Given HH is a pedestrian politician, are our senses so numb we can never swallow his advice? He has a constituency and those that respect his views will reflect deeply on what we ought to do as a nation at this point of impending leadership crisis. At times we ought to be sober and show unity and togetherness when faced with a national problem. When it is in the power of God, the one we hate most can rise; there is much to show from history. Let’s be wise for once.JJP
@ JJP Profound sentiments you express will never be appreciated by those living on the existence of Sata. All of us are prone to sickness but here, others do not believe this truism. They have immortalized Sata as well, fine and healthier. They are in perpetual denial to the extend that anyone in opposition to raise a moral question about the health of Sata is described as evil in their sight. Presidency of Mr Sata is ending up in disgrace and shameful contributed by PF mismanagement of Sata’s health status to the public, perhaps woefully to Mr Sata’s mocking of others in similar position while sick. Lessons for us all to accept without playing rodeo.
Its really terrible to wished dead.
the more you lose elections. . and the more u in opposition is the more you growing….mr hh. soon and soon enough it will be you ruling this country. yes u can be president. …it happened to sata y not u. but take note karma is a bitch
Because Ndlibe Nzelu, nature will take its course on me SOON.
His still ruling despite him being sick instead of you praying for his recovery you are busy talking about his health.we all know his sick what more do you want to know.
