Sports Minister Chishimba Kambwili and Patriotic Front deputy Secretary General Anthony Kasolo together with Information and Broadcasting Services Permanent Secretary Chanda Kasolo have sued ZNBC and its board of Directors Chairperson John Mulwilla for libel.
This follows allegations made by ZNBC Director General Board Chairman Dr John Mulwila that the trio tried to interfere with the selection of news content for public broadcaster when they stormed the newsroom and ordered the removal of certain stories from the news line up.
According to the writ of summons filed in the Lusaka High Court Registry dated 27th November obtained by QFM, the trio through their lawyers Sambo Kayukwa Advocates are claiming damages for libel.
They complain that the defendants unlawfully, negligently, deliberately and without regard for personal dignity, reputation and integrity of the plaintiff and without verification of the truth or falsity caused to broadcast the said libelous material complained about.
They are also seeking an injunction to restrain the defendants whether by themselves or their agents or any other persons from uttering or making any further statements relating to the issue complained about.
They are also claiming other relief as maybe deemed fit by the court.
Bring it on you pigs…..
Kuya bebele
Has he swallowed a big frog?
The is more brain matter in his neck that the head
evidence of chamba smoking in the eyes….
Kambwili is so useless. someone puncture that neck he may start to think better!
@engineer. I wonder if ur a real engineer or a self proclaimed one. I think ur not. Engineers are believed to be intelligent. Your comment sounds otherwise. You are full of insults. Chishimba is a human being with a very beautiful wife who deserves respect. Watch yo mouth ba Fake engineer
Reminds me of cantankerous old man Sata sueing 6 months ago as sitting president…the old man only turned up once to show us how sick he was….they are all empty tins this lot especially BUFFOON Chishimba!
Too much dobo ma guys . . .
HIPPO IN THE WATER. BA PRESIDENT BA PF JR COBRA

….
Anyway 2015 vote PF
I thank you
animal farm indeed.kambwili and company you have just tested your own bitter medicine.come 20 th january will give you our medicine.
Last gasps of a sinking canoe!
Ba Kambwili,
be humble and grateful.
If Zambia was a country of laws and good conscience, you should have been fired or resiresigned from government. Further, you should have been arrested if our Police were professional.
With this arrogance, who should vote for you to be President of Zambia?
Ala icilumba bane cibi.
The man is simply exercising his right because he feels offended by the malicious reports.
It is not ichilumba. It is just buffoonery, stupidity and sheer savagery.
Teach them man. You are a true Kambwili, Tiger in English. They can’t do this to you but remember to go for paternity test with that child in Kitwe who look like you. Useless Kambwili
NO…it is WARTHOG in English………………
How can that local name mean Tiger when there are no tigers in Zambia? Perhaps you meant Pig or Frog…what ever language that Kambwili name is in!
A useless thing by any other name would still be as useless!
My Mbuyas from the north, there are no tigers native to Zambia hahaha. Yaba.
@Jumbe. While I have no idea what Kambwili means, I do know that a Warthog in Bemba is Kapoli. By the way, I am not Bemba.
Tell us more about this child. Eyes itching to see more
Even chi Kambwili is Sick
Guy Scott is the future; black people cannot run a country; give us your companies; we shall hire u; pay u peanuts and make a killing of a profit when exporting
Did you just say’ black people’? Really? That’s the best punch line you can find? This country that you are living in is governed by Zambians, its the same ‘black’ tax payers that are buying your goods and services and you feel you have the right to insult us like that. Go back to your country which is governed by whatever race you are and leave us with our peanuts here. Tells me a lot about your thinking capacity. Ignorance is bliss.
Kambwili should be completely blacked out news this person belongs in a mental unit, he needs some one to beat the shit out him this ugly thing. We are tired stop putting him in the news he is not worth it.
The clowns can’t read the mood of the people; the support has long shifted by the way they have behave since the demise of the president! The game shall be played differently from now on! Thugs and apologists of violence and intimidation have no place in the new dispensation! It time for civilised discourse of issues you dimwits!
Miles Sampa. China is with you. If you are not with China you are our enemy big time!
Even Ray Charles and PK Chishala (God Rest Their Souls) would have SEEN that Zambia is in the wrong hands.
Out with thuggery, I shudder what the world thinks of us as a nation with characters like these walking the corridors of power as leaders! We sure have retrogressed as a nation. Nsanda; chairing aboard at RDA? Has the board ever been appointed at RDA? If not, the question begs “WHY”?
dont insult guys let them do what thy want to , thy have there right to do so, let maduma prove innocent if he did nt invite them , and the truth shall set them free , from what happen.
Ba LT, how did you get that picture of Chibwili? He looks like he is sitted on a toilet and he is in pain due to constipation. You can tell that from the colour of his eyes.
These Chaps (Kambwili et al) just want to stop people from talking about the silly thing they have done. They know they erred big time and know that it can be used against them this campaign period. Let the courts should quickly dispose of this case
kambwili also means a HOE, in LOZI Muhuma. For digging at the black mountain where HH was yesterday promising those mines that he will take care of them when he gets in state house.
This man wants to be President, PF is full of false pride, just how did we get here?
They are quilty as charged. They have lived that life and they show it!
If I were His/Her Honour the Judge in the case, I would throw their case out of court, on Grounds:
1. That NO resonable person would find them credible.
2. That ZNBC are reputable and held in High regard by Zambian citizens whom they serve well
3. That Anthony Kasolo in particular is a vexatious
disreputable dark character, with a penchant for supporting Treasonous Senior gov’t officials
4. That the Judge is satisfied that the matter before her was brought by two pompous, fraudulent individuals with no standing before the citizens of Zambia.
5. In summing up, Judge should conclude that as a decent Honourable individual of High standing, Trusted by the citizens of Zambia, could not in her/his conscious uphold their case.
Also add that they have NO a Reputation in the eyes of the citizens of Zambia in any case.
Iyi epulogilamu….ni thumbs chabe
God the Almighty is is watching . ukuitutumuna ( pomposity is the worst enemy in leadership ) munshebwa aile nayo kubuko .typical pf
They were invited to do what? Did they not threaten the staff and dress down the gentleman Kenneth Maduma?
these guys are in terrible shit they fear to loose but then they cant see that they already out side authority and jail doors are opening for them to bad guys
I support Kambwili
(not that I mean it but just to make comments balance and fair)
You sound like Mushota!
the circus continues! it will end on 20th Jan 2015 when HH forms cabinet.
In the meantime, lets open a public citizen account to fight this arrogance and support John AND the courageous journalists at ZNBC for the steering work they are doing on our behalf at ZNBC in the face of untold pressure & intimidation..
I doubt if there is a head on top of that fat head!!!
i meant fat neck!!
His not a presidential material. he has violence written all over his face.
Can you imagine this guy being the President of Zambian, even breathing to Zambians can a problem. he has never been humble in his life and can’t apologize even where there is evidence that he is wrong. beware of such mediocre.
I am not a lover of Kambwili’s character but the all ZNBC cannot even record a footage of Kambwili and his crew insulting them. Learn to comment objectively mwebantu!!
Ba LT – Dr John Mulwila is not the ZNBC DG but board chairman. The DG is a Mr Mwanza, in Nigeria the would say Engineer (Profession) Mwanza
Is DG short for Deputy Dog? As in the cartoon!
I support KAMBWILI BECAUSE THIS ISSUE WAS NOT HANDLED IN A RESPONSIBLE MANNER.Just because it was Mr Kambwili MrMulwila should have handled in responsible way rather than media without verification.It’s unfair.
The man is ugly, eish!!!! I wonder how he looks when he takes off his clothes. Is he not the Zambian version of Incredible Hulk?
What kind of weed are these guys smoking? Shameless morons
@ Suntwe. Iam told suntwe in English means one without a head. Am I right
Just look at the picture….can anyone ever WANT this ignoramus to be their president let alone be associated with him? Ugly idiot.
Aww. Poor guys. They clearly need a speech writer. Here’s one for you:
To the people of Zambia. My/Our heartfelt apologies for behaving like big jerks in a playground and bullying media folks. I/We hereby tender our resignation and promise never to foul the airwaves with egotistical, unapologetic childishness and am/are stepping down with immediate effect.
There you go. Easily done. Courts have more important work to do than pamper overgrown playground bullies.
ZNBC and Mr Maduma should counter-sue them for abuse of office, interfering with the operation of the broadcastor and Mr Maduma’s work, causing embarrassment to Mr Maduma resulting in mental anguish and ask the court to award damages and bar these fools from entering those premises ever again!
@31 ***** is foo!s.
This reminds me of the burglar who was trying to break into a store and cut himself on the barbed fence. He sued the property owner – I thought this only happened in the US, but behold, here we have Zambian exhibit # 1.
Why not use the evidence from the cctv installed there if any and show it to the nation on how they were shouting. They need discipline.
these are fo.ols how do you sue a govt institution and you are part o govt. Let us remove these i.di.ots they lack basics understanding of govt operations. they may end up sueing themselves
I REMEMBER THIS MAN SAYING ‘PRESIDENTS ARE BORN AND NOT MADE’ BUT HOW COME HE WANTS TO MAKE HIMSELF PRESIDENT.
SWALLOW YO WORDS PIG.WHAT DID YOU SMOKE ANYWAY ,YO EYES ARE RREEDD, SIPLIFF OR KA NSIMBI
I am appointing myself Charge and Prosecutor for this case.
Ba lusaka times Dr.John Mulwila is not ZNBC Director General but ZNBC Board Chairman.
Ba Kambwili tondolo musuma, don’t over expose yourself, judging by the majority, they are not in your favour, learn to humble yourself and the world will forgive you.
Learn from the past, you have many examples eg Kabimba’s falling from peoples favour, that’s exactly where you are heading if you don’t humble yourself.
And after the change of Government I feel for you, muzavina ndendeule
Kambwili’s physical appearance and behaviour is synonymous with one of the characters from Goerge Owell’s book “Animal Farm”. To be specific, Napoleon. As the saying goes and I quote – “Absolute power corrupts”.
A very poor attempt at “Preemptive Strike!” you scum balls! Kasolo and Kambwili really are the scum of the earth! Look at Kambwili’s bloodshot eyes! Looks like he’s just come from smoking “Malawi Gold”! The honorable thing to do would be to resign, but that’s expecting too much from such dishonorable scum, isn’t it? January 20, 2015, cannot come soon enough, neh? “Ukwa” must be turning in his grave! How could he have appointed such a one to a position of responsibility, and authority? Truly, truly, this country deserves better! Let’s not repeat the mistake of voting for the likes of Kambwili, the warthog! Abash lumpenous street adults and their cohorts1
@1.4 Other side
Kambwili’s wife is in UK, can’t afford to swallow gibberish and has
never cared to be a wife to a useless minister.
The book tells you about Kabwili.
Thanks in’t Mushota?.
