  1. 8 days left until PF & Edgar The Visionless Lungu are democratically voted out!
    HH is the best candidate for president!
    Viva HH!

    • Thanks guys at UPND Anti-Rigging Squad for the action. Please be extra alert and vigilant, you should not be hoodwinked by the ECZ case.

      PF is determined to rig the forthcoming election.

    • It was Nawakwi who told Zambians to be alert!!! Very good to see UPND & MMD that they are serious. They got the right truck for ECZ, but no ballot papers… If they had found some, mamamamama!!
      Chris Akafunda is doing a good job too.

    • Who’s immature here? UPND is a violent and tribal party. Period. Nothing changes this fact. And the police can tolerate this? Where would a police worth its salt would aid such interference of an executive function? if you don’t know, this is how a Government loses state power. UPND left to do as they wish will make this country ungovernable. No one should be seen to be above the law.

    • Best candidate by what measure? Everyone is selling socialism, be careful what you take out of promises. Clearly you vote for personalities and not policies. HH plans to do many things when the budget is $5 bn in deficit. There are only two ways to raise money in government- First option is to increase taxes, second option is to borrow money. So why can’t he tell you which he will do among the two? Also, he has not made a standpoint on the taxation of mines, why hasn’t he? DO not be deceived, what politicians will not tell you is that Zambia is not a wealthy country in resource. We all have a lot of work to do and a candidate that tells you that, whoever it is, is surely the best candidate.

    • Anti-Rigging squad are “the boy who cried wolf”!!! The should go back and check inside the batteries, maybe there…

    • looking for pre marked foldable chairs and tables…… because in upnd chairs and tables constitute ballot papers

      This type of Lumpen behavior must cease forthwith

    • ED: I dreamed that in the election fields one day at maize collection time, your ten sheaves of corn all turned and bowed to mine.

      HH: That sounds familiar. Are you sure that was your dream? Joseph?

      ED: I had a dream that every Zambian will be judged by the content of his glass and not the colour of the alcohol.

      HH: Are you sure you are not paraphrasing someone else? Martin?

      ED: To dream the impossible dream.

      HH: I can’t listen to this any more. What will make you stop?

      ED: Tell me your dream so I can announce mine.

      HH: I dreamed you woke up with a vision. Actually it was more like a nightmare… no one survived the beer festival…

      ED: I am tired of you laughing at me. Wait til I make a joke about trucks, chairs and batteries.

      HH: Go on.

      ED: We used choppers. Ha…

    • Ha ha ha … already namuloba ilyauma… so you think by casting the net in the same spot mukaloba ilituntulu…Mapenzi biya basa. Hintu tahili kabotu. I see EL winning this one.

      Your arrogance is your downfall.

      Hybija hintu basa

    • I hope that ZRA offical has been fired. Useless chap. If you are that concerned there’s something fishy going on why not go through proper channels and alert the police? Instead, he decided to alert UPND cadres. Useless!!

    • Now that no pre-marked papers were found charge the bastards with
      1.criminal tress pass
      2. Alarming the nation
      Ati ballot papers ni mapepa yanyoko mambala?

    • Skeleton you are such an ***** who does not have the right moral character to admit that your fellow *****s made a very stupid blunder driven by a fear of losing elections. At the very least you should have admitted that UPND was WRONG don’t mask over your mistakes or you will be forced to swallow your ugly pie.

      Long live ECL!!!

  2. There is a thin line between vigilant and being paranoid . This is an embarrassment of the highest order for people who claim to have Office of the president working with them. When we say SATA( MHSRIP) was a political professor we mean jst that. don’t copy things u cant handle

    • Thanks guys at UPND Anti-Rigging Squad for the action. Please be extra alert and vigilant, you should not be hoodwinked by the ECZ case.

      PF is determined to rig the forthcoming election.

    • @excited with Edgar lungu’s cries

      UPND cadres must applauded for being alert and vigilant. Fears of rigging the election by the desperate PF/Lungu thugs is not unfounded. We are dealing with criminal elements with not an ounce of integrity. So it’s not embarrassing to us or the international community. Ours is a govt of shameless liars with a satanic donchi philosophy who would not hesitate to rig given half a chance. Lungu has stolen money before, do you think he wouldn’t steal the election also? We have to be extra careful when dealing with crooked thugs.

    • Bwana @Wantanshi, making up sh1t and start believing in your own sh!t is the proper definition of being syc sophenic—be careful!

      SAUNDERS: Yes, I hear voices calling me…what…!, what…!, what do you want…?!

      AKUFUNA: Sir, Mr. Saunders, calm down! Are you Ok?

      SAUNDERS: No!, no!, yes!, yes!, voices from green little monsters dressed in PF chitenges carrying fake ballots with fading ink…yes, short little people with big heads, long arms and big bulging eyes…you seem them!?

      AKUFUNA: Where, where, where!?

      SAUNDERS: Oh no…, they are getting closer!

      AKUFUNA: Really? But if you need help Sir, I can rush you to Chinama. It is only a few minutes away!

      SAUNDERS: Yes, no, yes, no, but, but!—and off he goes, over the cliff into permanent state of “I SEE RIGGING”!

    • Thanks guys at UPND Anti-Rigging Squad for the action. Please be extra alert and vigilant, you should not be hoodwinked by the ECZ case.

      PF is determined to rig the forthcoming election.

  3. Thanks guys at UPND Anti-Rigging Squad for the action. Please be extra alert and vigilant, you should not be hoodwinked by the ECZ case.

    PF is determined to rig the forthcoming election.

    • You just sound scared. This election will be over by lunch time.
      Copperbelt, Lusaka, Northern, Luapula, Eastern Provinces. Not to mention Central Province.
      By lunch time Canicius Banda and HH will address a press- conference citing foul- play!

  4. Before I blame or commend the UPND team, the biggest question is Why would ZRA allow ECZ to bypass the security scan check? probably these guys have done a false alarm so that when the big fish happens no one will question or make an issue out of it..or maybe upnd is a scared chicken???????

    • We shouldn’t allow vigilantism. The state must function. We all must have some faith in state entities. Or am I not communicating well. We have to agree a common regulations and their enforcement. The police do the enforcement. Vigilantism is a sign of immaturity.

    • ECZ were using a vehicle that was being tracked and was inspected already. ECZ have deadlines. Let us not be ignorant, UPND found batteries and tables, that is shameful. This election will be over by lunch time. Edgar Lungu will win by a wide margin if statistic is anything to go by.

    • Thanks guys at UPND Anti-Rigging Squad for the action. Please be extra alert and vigilant, you should not be hoodwinked by the ECZ case.

      PF is determined to rig the forthcoming election.

  5. Zambia is simply a failed a failed State. No country in the world can allow goods to pass thru a Border Post without being inspected. Only in Zambia can such things happen.

    • I am sure UPND will be very happy with anarchy … so every government item any party thinks is suspicious must now be impounded, on the spot… as long as you bogus intelligence has tipped you off … I am so disappointed with UPND thuggery … amano yabukaponya… Anyway what does one expect from company such as William Banda a confirmed hooligan, GBM a wife beater and Masebo ***** the list goes on and on.

      Please voters do not waste you vote on such loompens.

  6. We have seen these pictures many times, please give us something fresh. In fact the alertness on the part of UPND is highly commendable. You cant trust Panga Family, a sister organisation with Boko Haram.

  7. What an embarrassment these clueless UPND cadres are. They were even checking the batteries to see if they were pre-marked ballot papers as if they don’t know what papers look like.

    Try to sneak in pre-marked ballot papers yourselves if you have got some next time, and blame it on the PF.

    Shame on you!

  8. This reminds me of how vigilant we were as PF in 2011. Then there was a lot of fear that RB was going to rig the elections so we chased trucks, bought new pens to go and vote and we put in a parallel voter system – the rest is history.

    Congrats ba UPND for coping the PF strategies of gaining popularity. What I am not sure is – has this increased your voters base?

    We will see on the 21st of Jan 2015.

    May the best party and man or woman win.

    God bless Zambia

  9. They actually look like FOOLS..How can ECZ put pre-marked ballots in cartoons marked ECZ and use Chirundu full of bantustans….and u call yourselves intelligient?lol keep to the cows..

    IFINTU NI LUNGU

  10. A SEASONED ECONOMIST IS EXPECTED TO COUNT THE RISKS, COST AND BENEFITS OF UNDERTAKING AN EXCERCISE SO THAT YOU DO NOT WASTE RESOURCES ON A FUTILE EXERCISE LIKE THIS. A LOT OF RESOURCES WERE WASTED IN THIS EXCERCISE. TIME, FUEL , HUMAN RESOURCES, MONEY OF COURSE ON AN EXERCISE THAT YIELDS NOTHING. SURELY TRAILING A TRUCK ALL THE WAY FROM CHIRUNDU IS A COSTLY EXERCISE. ESPECIALLY BY A PARTY THAT WANTS TO GIVE FREE EDUCATION FROM GRADE ONE TO UNIVERSITY, REDUCE THE PRICE OF M/MEAL IN TWO WEEKS, GIVE LOANS TO MARKETEERS, SUBSIDISE M/MEAL AND FUEL ETC.

  11. There is nothing attractive than check and balance, especially PF a party of endless inconsistencies and confusion cannot be trusted.
    Keep it up with the same alertness, make sure PF does not rig the elections. All those tired of PF anarchy, make sure these squadrons of hypocrites and corrupt elements are out casted out.
    Voting for visionless Lungu is risky and suicide. Only HH, a Hero of Humanity can uplift the country to best economic growth because UPND have the ability of delivering what people need and want.
    Viva HH and vote for the visionless Edgar Lungu at your peril!
    8 days left till PF is dead.

  12. Thats the way to go!!! ….. if there were marked ballot papers found, what would the people against the UPND actions be saying now???

  13. I like UPND!

    Stepping up vigilance against electoral fraud – leaving no stone unturned.

    UPND men and women are vigilant and alert during this election.

    Their ability to maintain attention and alertness will be part of what defines UPND.

    When they come into power we will have sanity in this country. All these panga brandishing predators will be indoctrinated with civilised human values and norms to become human again. And we will ensure that they are both schooled and educated so that they can learn to think and behave intelligently.

    Bravo UPND for keeping careful watch for possible electoral fraud.

    • Boldface foretells that it is Sara baby. I just always write, without wasting time on her long sermons. My vote is for EL. My family’s vote is for EL and my friends votes are for EL. I do not keep bad company. They can go and vote for Sara’s tribal white collar criminal., liquidator and destroyer.

      VOTE for LUNGU.

  14. This lawlessness will come back and haunt you HH. Nevers thought he was being clever disrespecting Sata; look what is happening to him.

  15. Firstly, I would like to commend HH on the campaign he has run. But that said, Edgar Lungu is LIKELY to become Zambia’s 6th President on January 20th, 2015. When you analyze the 2010 voter register, you will have to agree that HH to begin with, had a lot of work to do. He will do well in N. Western and Western Provinces, but the problem is that the registered voters in those provinces amount to 700,000, still dwarfed by the 825,000 registered votes in Copperbelt. Then the biggest factor is that Southern and Eastern Provinces will cancel out because they both have 600,000 registered voters and both leading candidates hail from their. Now you have neutral grounds; Northern, Luapula, Central, Lusaka Provinces. Tell me now, who do you think will emerge victorious in those?

  16. Kwena ubu ebupuba last, what a shame. continue dreaming you f00ls no wonder you shall not rule this great nation. You are just as backwards as your animals you keep. What is the similarity between chairs and ballot papers? You are already fitted before the ballot paper is cast. VIVA H.E, E.C.L.

    • I totally agree with you, how LOW can these guys go. And what is Saunders doing anyway? That is a failed politician from Monze or such backward place.

  17. Yaba, this is a huge political blunder by UPND. This action of blowing hot air has just taken away into their integrity and credibility. From hereon all their actions will be questioned or taken with a pitch of salt.
    Politically what UPND should be doing is what Lungu’s PF is doing. Consolidating and building capacity in their identified soft spots which are value adding in terms of demograghics.
    Furthermore this action has exposed them in terms of how they are no match to the PF at all fronts.
    HH and his folklore would benefit exceedingly joining with well oiled political parties like MMD, FDD and the like as the have a correct pedigree.
    The politics of thriving on tribe like Shakafunswa, Nkombo will always prove impotent. They lack the numbers as is the deciding factor presently.

  18. Dear Editor,
    I don’t think this was primarily about “UPND’s Pre-Marked Ballot Paper Hoax in Pictures” but about ECZ proactively communicating and declaring anything and everything, as they did the ballots themselves. And where is the truck the UPND trackers lost? I think ECZ has a responsibility of ensuring a clean, free, fair and transparent election.
    As far as I know reactive public relations and ECZ public relations raises suspicion and speculation. Secondly, they don’t have to be ballots or pre-marked in RSA. They could be marked at a farm or warehouse anywhere in Lusaka or on any day before polling.
    We all know exam leakages are done on desks or neckties or bags etc. I thought LT missed the point on pre-marked and hoax. I thought, the buck stops with ECZ on this one. Lastly,…

  19. If you are are working for ECZ as polling assistant and then an elderly voter( apparently cannot distinguish candidates due to advanced age) asks you , ” pali ba sata nipensa?”, what can you do?

  20. Where are the real trucks, I urge the Rigging to remain vigilant until the results are announced. It can happen if you sleep.

  21. To say the least.. THERE IS NO RIGGING. THE TRUTH IS UPND supporters/voters are far LESS than PF supporters/Voters. Just swallow the pride. THIS IS A FACT.

  22. How many of you guys commenting on this blog in Zambia or have been in to Zambia in the last week or so ? We will be wasting OUR time talking online without getting facts on the ground. The best is for one to see or observe first hand. Go to Lusaka and some rural area then come back and comment. Not getting information online or hearsay. This is some kind of competition were one with the best plan ( whether you support it or not) will come out victorious. I m in Zambia now, and from my observation there are only two strong contenders in EL and HH. Between the two, EL MAY become the next president as his party has a better political plan for this election. They have serious real numbers.

  23. This must be a shameful moment for UPND as suspected marked ballot papers turns into tables and chairs ahhhh #LaughingLound. What is the next excuse as 20th January approaches?

  24. These losers HH-UPND are so desperate to win this election which they have lost already. Please just wait for 20 January when you shall mourn uncontrollably.

    Peace and Prosperity to Mother Zambia.

  25. The problem with bane ba UPND is that you want to copy everything that you think Sata did to get to state house – but unfortunately in a disorderly manner. Now i have concluded tamwachenjela and you should fire your political advisers.
    No sane person, even if he wanted to rig election can transport ballot papers in those truck – i wonder if you are really working with the office of the president special duties as you claim.

    No wonder at one time Sata told you that PF is getting elephants (RB) and you are busy getting rabbits (Katele and Maureen) – what value have they added.

  26. What country with proper democratic processes allows deranged citizens to intercept ballot papers? This is unprecedented! I truly hope the Army can protect our ballot papers. These people are mad!

    Lungu for President! He is honest. It is Makapaka HH who promises lie after lie

    Vote Lungu for a steady pTh to real wealth.

  27. UpDn is full of confused and dull chaps. If the government was to rig the elections do you think the ballot papers would have been brought into the country by ECZ.
    No the ballot papers will be brought in by the Special Branch. Two suitcases would be enough to carry the ballot papers.
    May be the so called anti rigging squad should be checking all suitcases of people coming into Zambia. Or the ballot papers could be in one of the fridges, being imported into Zambia. What a job you guys have but then again most of you are unemployed so may be this creates something for you to do.
    UpDn and HH have already lost the elections.
    WE DONT WANT HH THE SATANIST FOR PRESIDENT

    2015 ECL FOR PRESIDENT

    2016 ECL NAFUTI

  28. I am not going to vote because I am out of the country. But I find the action of UPND very barbaric and childish! I agree with the comment that charge the people who brought this rumour! There is no way that there should go unpunished. Who told them these lies? A UPND custom official? Charge this fool and ensure that we do not have such alarmists in our country! We cannot afford to have people taking the peace for granted. It shows that there is no honesty and transparency amongst the hungry politicians who constantly suspect that there is something fishy. Campaign peacefully and convince the electorates then you will win. Otherwise you are showing yourselves what you are made of- foolishness!

  29. what can we expect with the likes of Maureen and that guy from MMD in the campaign team! The old man Saunders looks rather disgraced! Is this the kind of Government my uncles campaigners want to bring? Lawlessness and disorder where cadres begin to impound trucks on grounds of unsubstantiated facts? This is the failed state Maureen is encouraging!

    Grandpa is alarmed by this unruly conduct this is not kaboto basankwa! Can you imagine what it would be like if my cousins party took power. Mulebasebanya ba cousin. It’s not too late to get rid of the likes of Sanders, Dipak, the “doctor” and that guy from MMD cousin. Theses people have cost you votes! Get rid of them fast!!!

  30. I love it!

    UPND and MMD exercising due diligence – as they should. We all know the saying “You snooze you lose”. in this case literally.

    I’m warming up to this Akufuna guy. He can be on the team when my lady justice Ireen Mambilima ascends to her rightful throne – as Chief Justice.

    You hear me? Ireen Mambilima for Chief Justice

  31. Saunders epitomizes SCUM of the earth. And, please refer to him as UPND cadre, never again as ‘political activist’, with the same retarded mental age as William Banda.
