The Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) has refuted media reports suggesting that the Commission was served with an injunction to restrain the Returning Officer in the Presidential election, Acting Chief Justice Lombe Chibesakunda, from receiving the nomination papers from MMD candidate, Nevers Mumba.

ECZ Public Relations Manager, Crispin Akufuna, stated that the commission was not served with any injunction to restrain the Returning Officer from receiving the papers from Dr Mumba.

Mr Akufuna said the Commission was on firm ground when it accepted the nomination of the MMD President because there was no court order restraining it from doing so.

Mr Akufuna said this in statement availed to ZANIS in Lusaka yesterday.

  1. Whatever the case, Nevers is just a comical egoist heading nowhere. In the AAC process, his whole assignment of destroying MMD is in no way different from what was given to one Sebastian Zulu’s uptake in destruction of UNIP at the time. Unfortunately, the system knows how to acquire and finish up the vulnerable characters whose excessive love for money, affluence and personal challenges are early picked up only to be exploited then dumped once done with. Watch the space. No MPs, no NEC and no power base. What a candidacy. I doubt there will even be serious money shredders considering that its clear that Nevers is just serving the task of acquirers which every agent does in an assignment. This election is between EL and HH kwamana. With help of the acquierer, MMD will soon deal with…

    • I would like to warn the UPND and HH in particular that the spirit of insults and rigging plus killing the main opponents has now overtaken the PF.

      Information has emerged that the 2015 Presidential Elections will not be defferent from the 2001 which Anderson Mazoka won and Chiluba imposed Mwanawasa. This 2015, HH will win but the Security Agences with the help of Robbert Mugabe will impose Edgar Lungu on the Zambian People.

      Edgar Lungu has been reliably informed that HH is winning the coming elections by 37%, Edgar Lungu by 35%, Nevas Mumba by 12% and Edith Nawakwi by 10% .

      And he has been told to do the following in order to to reverse the impending humiliating defeat:
      1. Make sure that Politics of Insults at HH become the order of the day.

      2. Making sure that ZNBC, TIMES…

  2. @seroius reporter, dont worry, we are on the ground and we will make sure the right president is in the office come 21.01.2015

    Vote HH for president on 20.01.2015

  3. Please stop these thugs from doing that. They will stop at nothing but to winning the election.

    Have you ever heard in the Zambian history a judge being woken up at 01 hrs to obtain an injunction?

    If that is not desperation from these crooks then what is it? I even wonder if a morally right person would support that.

    Madam Inonge Wina has been the most disappointing person during this period. Any way let us wait and see.
