Quick action by Police saves PF cadres from being attacked in Monze

Share

Quick action by Monze police today prevented a potential physical confrontation between suspected United Party for National Development (UPND) and Patriotic Front (PF) cadres.

The PF cadres who were clad in their party regalia and chanting the party slogan were almost attacked by suspected UPND cadres in Monza’s Business centre forcing many businesses to close and people to scamper for safety.

Police had to fire teargas and several warning shots to disperse some suspected UPND cadres who were mobilizing in an alleged attempt to attack the PF cadres.

A ZANIS crew that rushed to the scene found police escorting the PF cadres out of town.

PF District Chairman Mr. Mackenzie Lunge who also witnessed the incident said suspected UPND cadres allegedly mobilized themselves after word went round that the PF cadres were passing through the town en route to Livingstone.

But Mr. Lungu said the action by police prevented an attack by UPND cadres and praised the police for exhibiting professionalism.

“Some of our members were passing through town and some suspected UPND cadres starting throwing stones at them and had it not been for quick action by police, we could have seen bloodshed but luckily there were no injuries,” said Mr. Lungu

    • So there you have it, more provocation by UPND. I wonder how mentally stable some of these people are after all the calls and prayers for peace, you go on and do some seriously insane things.

  2. This is what we have been saying all along…

    UPND= UNITED PARTY FOR NATIONAL DESTRUCTION AND THEIR MAIN GOAL IS TO DESTROY ZAMBIA, THEY WANT TO CAUSE CHAOS AND CONFUSION FOR THEIR OWN SELFISH REASONS..THE PF SAYS NO TO VIOLENCE AND TRUTH BE SAID PF HAS AVOIDED ALL MAJOR INCIDENTS OF VIOLENCE DESPITE VERY SERIOUS PROVOCATION AT THE HANDS OF UPND..ALL I CAN SAY IS BA PF PLEASE LETS SHOW THE ZAMBIANS THAT WE MEAN PEACE AND DEVELOPMENT FOR ZAMBIA UNLIKE WHAT UPND IS OFFERING NOTHING BUT VIOLENCE…

    January 21, it will be announced…Edgar Lungu is leading in the elections

    January 23/24 it will be announced…Edgar Lungu has won the elections

    By the first week of February it will be announced…HH has resigned as UPND president..

    ****VIVA EDGAR LUNGU 2015 AND 2016****

    • Online debate on Hot Fm Radio – Edith comes number 1, Elias and Nevers number two (first half Elias was brilliant and then Nevers came out well) and followed by HH. Sinkamba was funny but his idea is not bad to explore. Western world is opening up to Marijuana-legalising.

      For 2015 it is EL who is the best. He is honest and his statement for not attending the debate shows his straightforwardness, forthrightness and simplicity.

      Vote for EL.

    • @Ichintucintumwene.. WELL SAID COMRADE, WELL SAID!!!!

    • You guys must belong to Sinkala’sparty. What can this hide and seek Edgar bring to Zambia?
      The man fears to speak to people unless under the influence of beer or drugs. Can’t you see his body language?
      Zambians be serious for change. Do you have to wait for Jesus to tell you that you have the power to chose a better Zambia for yourselves?

    • Sorry i meant debating club. Lungu should live debate for young boys are girls that are dreaming to enter state house.
      Am sevices my canter to start ferrying katundu from chawama.

  3. Lesser minds debating unconfirmed reports whose source is a compromised PF official who is a loafer found at Monze bus station.GOD save us.

  4. So sad. Only in monze. The foolish strategy to cause confusion and then blame it on PF in order to paint the former as a violent party, may just be on the way to help someone lose this election big time! There is just extreme intolerance in that part of the country. They staged the shiwangandu saga, burnt boats, smashed cars and they still feel they are still in the game? Not with my vote.

  5. bufi ba LT. a panga family compromised online media. publish hh’s livingstone pics. also e.l papers that he is a thief who stole client’s money. zwd and zambia eye have published e.l. thieving documentary evidence

    • UPND can’t separate itself from what it is – violent, tribal, uncivilized! Mark my words, should the unfortunate happen that UPND wins, we’ll all pay a discriminatory price. It may not be HH, but the Tongas have NO civility ABOUT HOW FAR THEY CAN GO IN EXHIBITING DISCRIMINATION AGAINST ANYONE NOT TONGA. For me, I’ve very little against HH but a lot against the Tonga mentality. It is they and themselves; no other. Wait and see!

  6. Ati HH? Watching this man in debate was a disgrace! The man is proud and it’ll be a mistake to have such a ‘character’ in state house! We’ll be moulding a Zambian Frankenstein! Abash HH and Viva Edgar Lungu for Zambia!

    • Kekekekekekeke

      He disapointed his gullible followers,the man can not articulate issues.
      just waffling

      IFINTU NI LUNGU CHABE

    • Thank God those debates were held and beamed live. HH was a major let down and was out classed by Edith and Elias. Frankly Elias is a brillant man, someone to seriously consider after Edgar Lungu.

    • Your Edgar Lungu will just be a mat for other presidents in the region. He has no confidence this madizzy of yours. Do you think Lungu can stand up to Mugabe like the young president Khama of Botswana? Lungu will just be a praise-singer like Sata. HH is the man. Viva HH.

  7. Thats tribal UPND for you voters.the choice is yours!!these tongas if left unchecked,their tribalism will cause chaos in Zambia!!their leaders after Mazoka have been campaigning on tribal lines.for them Zambia is UPND and a real Zambian is a tonga!!!SEE,ALL PARTIES ARE FREELY CAMPAIGNING IN OTHER PROVINCES IN PEACE.BUT IN TONGALAND,ONLY HH MUST CAMPAIGN,SHAME?my heart bleeds when i see other tribes support HH-a tonga!!if HH wins( God forbid),expect civil war bcoz all jobs,business,everything in Govnt will be for tongas!!!these people a very tribal!!SO VOTERS OPEN YOUR EYES AND NEVER VOTE FOR UPND TILL A NON TONGA LEADS IT!!!PF IS BY FAR THE BEST!!!

    • Actually what the UPND almost did in Monze is very good. It is high time the PF thugs were shown that they do not have a monopolyn of violence. If you use pangas in Lusaka in Southern province they use spears. If you fool around a spear will deflate your big tummies. Id1ots.

  8. KaChipimo is sharp! He made beneHh look like kindergarten scholars! Honestly speaking, hh has nothing to offer apart from been a good ‘cry’ baby. He’s not presidential material. He was simply pathetic in debate. Lungu efintu for Zambia. Mubwatoooo!!!

    • Elias outclassed and outdebated all the candidates. He is simply on another level and needs to take over after Lungu. He wad followed by Edith but HH was a major disappointment.

    • Most people who talk well and too much are useless. Examples abound – Chiluba, Sata, kambwili, Mulongoti, Siliya, Munkombwe, etc. So do not praise Chipimo who has even run away from the presidential race.

  9. The Past news today has claimed that they have stated before that HH is the best candidate. One wonders when they stated that, thought they always stated that he was leader of a bantustan party? And it seems HH will be flattered with that endorsement by the Past just like he seemed flattered by Munkombwe endorsement.
    But politicians should be reminded once again, if you are endorsed by the Past, then you have lost the voters. It is the most hated news paper that everyone they seem to support is hated in similar way. It means today HH has lost out on votes just because of this Past support. The Past was 2011 and not today.

  10. Read 15th January Post editorial about how late Levy Mwanawasa warned tongas over tribalism!! 99% tongas vote for UPND!!even if a dog is adopted on UPND,tongas will vote for it as councillor or MP!!hey what a tribe!!!i was in Monze on 19/12/2014 and heard how they only want a tonga to win.many of them were upset when news came out that Guy Scott has reconciled with Edgar Lungu.they wanted confusion in PF so that a tonga HH can win!!so those tribal words from VJ and Daniel Munkombwe were said not by mistake but thats what they talk about daily with HH in their meetings!!! I PITY GBM,MUTATI,NALUMANGO,MASEBO,MANGANI FOR SUPPORTING A TRIBAL PARTY UPND!!!AM SURE THEY HATE THEIR KIDS WHO MAY SUFFER BADLY IF A TONGA WENT INTO STATE HOUSE!!!SO YOU VOTE FOR HH AT YOUR OWN PERIL!!!

  11. What do you expect from these HH-UPND losers? They know very well that they have lost this election and the only resort is violence. What a useless party is UPND.

    Lungu has won this election.

    Peace and Prosperity to Mother Zambia.

  12. UPND I think this time cool it and wait for the next election. Opposition has a role to play – if Lungu doesn’t work hard he can be gone in less than 2 years. HH win next week is very unlikely, how can you even imagine it?

  13. Chaya them bembas think they can intimidate us just like the way they do to small tribes we are geared than ever to rule ourselves,this thing called ONE ZAMBIA ONE NATION was coined in order for some poor tribes to access our Godly given resources be careful TONGAS,LOZIS and LUVALES your children will find nothing.

    • Imagine the Bantu Botatwe mentality! How can a normal person wishing for votes from all and sundry think like this nickle pup! Tongas, just like Bembas and Easterners together are NOT many enough to win an election. You need more than yourselves. And the latter seem more inclusive than Tongas tend to be. Make an effort to be inclusive even against your own psychic. Well, let’s wish everyone a success.

  14. Iwe chi@Eddy why including Masebo in that list is it ignorance? telly us also that the post said HH is the best out of these contesting candidates why just talking about tribe part,you have no option but to vote for HH if not whether you like it or not you will leave Bantu-botatwe land we have tolerated you for so long you baboons

  15. The problem we have in southern province is that, all party structure for other political parties comes from other tribes. No Tonga person in southern province is allowed to have an official position in another party apart from UPND. Brothers in southern province, lets learn from other regions where party officials in all the political parties are are held by the local and blended with people from other regions. meaning that, people in those areas have accepted all the political parties, unlike in sothern province, you will hardly see a Tonga being an official in PF at the district level.

  16. I WILL MAKE THIS,I AM RICH,I AM GOING TO CHANGE YOU,I AM YOUR OWN PRODUCT,VOTE OUR OWN CHILD.
    CAN SOMEONE RULE A COUNTRY ALONE WITHOUT TEAM WORK ( I AM)?THIS IS A COUNTRY OF ALL ZAMBIANS LETS VOTE FOR SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO WORK WITH PIPO.
    SATANA TAWAKATEKO ICHALO – GENERAL KANENE

    VOTE FOR THE REAL MAN EL CHABE

  17. Muleumfwako insoni mweba tonga. HH held rallies in Eastern province. MMD officials in eastern province have endorsed him. Did you ever hear UPND people being hacked? What is your problem?

    • You must have been in very deep sleep and missed news reports of UPND members being hacked with pangas in Lusaka, attacked in Shiwang’andu, a helicopter carrying Maureen Mwanawasa almost brought down by PF cadres. The PF buggers must be very careful in Southern Province otherwise they will end up with perforated stomachs. That is the best way to respond to PF violence – you answer fire with fire. It is the only language PF understands.
