Masebo should be the last person to ask Lungu to form his own party-Kapata

TOURISM and Arts minister Jean Kapata has charged that Chongwe Member of Parliament Sylvia Masebo was never a founder member of the Patriotic Front (PF) and therefore should be the last person to demand that the ruling party’s president Edgar Lungu should resign from the party.

Ms Kapata said it was shocking that Ms Masebo “who has been jumping from one political party to another” could ask Mr. Lungu to leave the ruling party when he was among the founding members.

Ms Kapata said unlike Ms Masebo, Mr Lungu had only belonged to one political party in his life and had been a loyal and faithful member of the PF from 2001.

She recalled that Ms Masebo was originally a member of the MMD together with her colleague, former Justice Minister Wynter Kabimba before defecting to the Zambia Republican Party (ZRP) where they attempted to overthrow the party president Benjamin Yorum Mwila.

Ms Kapata said after failing to take over ZRP, Ms Masebo returned to MMD during the reign of Levy Mwanawasa and that she (Masebo) caused a lot of confusion in the former ruling party when Rupiah Banda became president.

She recalled that just before the 2011 general elections, Ms Masebo “jumped” to PF because she knew that the party’s chances of forming government had become bright.

“How can Ms Msebo who has been jumping from one political party to another ask PF president Edgar Lungu to leave the party?

Mr Lungu, unlike Madam Masebo has only been a member of one political party in his life and that is the PF. Masebo must be ashamed of herself but I am not surprised because that is what desperation can do to selfish individuals,” Ms Kapata said.

    • Edgar Lungu was in UPND, it is not true that he has only belonged to PF. Ba Jean Kapata, please get your facts correct. Anyway, Edgar Lungu is not presidential material

    • But those PF women like Jean Kapata can’t they advice Edgar Lungu stop drinking? He was an embarrasment in Kitwe, he looked so much sick. Please don’t allow another presidential death.

    • Lungu cant even pass a proper speak?? what kind of leadership do Zambians aspire to have.

      PF has a bunch of useless leaders, therefore HH is the only way forward.

    • @Nostradamus MDB 2014 (Most Demented Blogger).
      This mad leach is everywhere. He is the reason LT is not raking good ratings. Intellectual bloggers are disappearing one by one because they feel insulted reading the nonsense from this lunatic. More and more bloggers have noted his immoral and atrocious behavior and his sick mind. His mind reeks with maggots. He stinks.

  1. Stop the nonsense and concentrate on the campaigning. Now it is not time to point fingers at each other. Madam Masebo should join the EL team to sell the Party President (PP) or else they will lose the job. Advise to Masebo bury what was there and forge ahead or form the party with your B/friend Kamimba.

  2. madam kapata you have said it all ukulundapo konaula. remeber how PF helped her win Choongwe back after being beaten by Mwakalombe.

  3. It’s a veritable fact that EL a loyal servant of PF. Masebo and co are nonentities in PF. Opportunists to say the least. FORWARD WITH EL.

  4. People like Masebo do not learn vital lessons of life.If anything,she is only powerful in de eyes of one Fred M’membe of de Post.In de MMD government,this Masebo was stubborn & said a lot of bad things against our late republican president,HEMCS,MHSRIP.Being a good father that he was,Mr Sata allowed her to join de PF & even promoted her.Now she is at it again antagonizing de party.

  5. Masebo is just trying to follow the rules as stated by your useless constitution. Grow up PF, party for thugs. The party is on death bed.

  6. PF’s arnachial & thuggish will perpetually continue, as it is prophecy,till after these elections! God is in control & when he says YES no one can say NO!Surely- God is Good all the Times & all his signals are there for any christian to see. In any case,PF is in a rude shock as all civilised government workers & peasant farmers are for HH except for a few top civil slaves who are serving their satanic bellies at the expense of the suffering majority.These elections if not going to be rigged will definitely favour HH hence HH MUST have the Parallel Voter Tabulation System in Place Already. Otherwise, PF has really nothing on their side apart from their divided cabinet,afew relatives plus their unregistered malitia of thugs as well as top civil slaves & sycophantic…

  7. Political prostitutes have the potential to divide our country. Zambia needs to come up with robust laws to stop this rot otherwise we risk segmenting our country. The political landscape is changing fast. Our judiciary has collapsed, ministers can now do whatever they like without fear of persecution. The presidency has now become competition to steal and abuse rather than to serve the people. The same crooks are re-grouping and re-packaging themselves.

  8. Masebo has right to speak her mind. That is the kind of democracy people we should promote. Masebo is PF despite difference of opinion. Yes she supports Hon Miles Sampa, but we should not denigrate her so much. Instead let us close ranks and work together, promote unity guys. Every vote counts!!!

  9. sata is sick sata is sick untill today he is dead. Again you have started with lungu. This time who ever shall openly say that lungu is sick shall be held responsible if something bad happens to him. we shall stone you to death. Just tell us why your party does not go for convetion in a democratic country

  10. Masebo is ok. Stop insulting her. Remember when you insult masebo you are also insulting your mother. Masebo has seen that EDGAR LUNGU HAS NO BRAINS TO BE PRESIDENT.

  11. I repeat those who are saying lungu is sick if somethig but hapens to him shall be held responsible. we shall stone you to death. you killed mazoka and sata now you want to kill lungu. why cant you wish your friends long life. Take your demons to your party or family not lungu. This time we shall not burry lungu untill we sort out all those who are saying lungu is sick

  12. @MONDE you are the one who should be held accountable for sata’s death. When the man was sick you were busy hiding his sickness until the man died. Even when he was seriously sick you were saying the man was ok. Again you have started defending the man and when he dies you will responsible. Don’t be so evil. Have a human heart!

  13. @MONDE you are the one who should be held accountable for sata’s death. When the man was sick you were busy hiding his sickness until the man died. Even when he was seriously sick you were saying the man was ok. Again you have started defending the EL and when he dies you will responsible. you want to keep him when he dies, for what? RITUALS? Don’t be so evil. Have a human heart!

  14. @8 civilised sam……… Are you being honest with your description of pf? Which party is more violent, pf or upnd? Upnd is mapatizya formular violence, Saki tulamujaya sunu. Upnd no convention. Upnd’s president copies everything sata did in politics yet mocked him that he was not educated. Zambians you listened for yourselves EL’s economic plans not feable lies from HiHa of free this,free that.

  15. Jean Kapata is perfectly correct.

    Masebo and Sampa are bad news. She is among the small gang in PF, who are unprincipled. I don’t understand why any right thinking person would like her.

    Her conduct in the last few weeks has been shocking. Such an open display of primitive and backwardness. It is a shame to have people like her in PF, or any political party in a civilised society.

    she is aggressive and openly attempted to arrange an unfair party president. I know it is not the end. Probably right now they are arranging another blow to Lungu. Vicious, uncouth, backward and very up appealing. She looks and sounds like a cheap whore. She should be running a market stall. Her education has done nothing to assist her inner development.

    Well done Hon. Kapata. Thank you.

  16. Ba Kapata, you are no match with Masebo, she is a lady, very intelligent, hard working, Kapata, you are as dully as,
    A grade 9., you don’t even know how to sale tourism, very far from it. Go Masebo say it from your heart

  17. Masebo is a cruel, heartless and shameless individual, remember how she fired those poor souls from ZAWA for no apparent reason leading to the setting up of a tribunal against her and eventual ouster from her ministerial position? Am sure she will soon dump PF to join the incoming Government of HH.
