Vice President Inonge Wina says Government will allow the relevant authorities to deal with the culprits of the political violence that characterized Mulobezi district in the Western province last weekend in the run-up to the June 30 Mulobezi constituency parliamentary by-election.

Mrs Wina was speaking when she paid a courtesy call on the BRE Kuta in Mwandi district this morning.

The Vice President noted that the political misunderstanding in Mulobezi shocked everyone and that if it was established that the violence was caused by outsiders they shall be deported back to where they came from.

ZANIS reports that Mrs Wina was reacting to remarks made by BRE representative Induna Anasambala who stated that no violence had ever been reported in Sesheke Kuta during campaigns and that it was strange because the area has always been peaceful.

Induna Anasambala ? further noted that such incidents occur because people are ferried from different parts of the country during campaign periods .

He said the people of Mulobezi, Sesheke and Mwandi districts are law abiding and that whoever is found responsible should be dealt with by the law.

The Vice President is in the Western province on a working visit.

Meanwhile, About 120 members from various opposition parties have defected to the ruling Patriotic Front (PF) in Mongu District of the Western Province.

ZANIS reports that the Vice President Inonge Wina received the defectors at a rally she addressed at Community Development Hall in Mongu yesterday.

Ms. Wina thanked the defectors for joining the PF stating that the new members were very much welcome as this was a plus for strengthening the roots of the party.

Ms. Wina disclosed that the opposition were joining the PF because of the massive infrastructure development that was currently taking place in the country sighting road construction works, construction of health posts and schools as well as rural electrification among others.

She urged the new members to be free in the PF and encouraged them to participate in even contesting for any positions at any level in the party.

And among those who defected were former Western Province United Party for Nation Development (UPND) Chairman Joseph Mulyata, Movement for Multi Party Development (MMD) Provincial Chairman Katongo Kameya with her Provincial Chairlady Ethel Wamunyima.

And speaking on behalf of the defectors, Mr Mulyata thanked the Vice President for welcoming and supporting them in joining the PF saying that they did not join the party to bring confusion but to work together and attract more members.

Mr. Malyata further said they had joined the PF because of its good works adding that President Edgar Chagwa Lungu and the Vice President Inonge Wina were good people.

  1. Ow please this is a political move, she know who’s liable for the disruption. People will see her and think she’s there to save them. No courtesy call and there to cover up PF violence. She needs to do something about Davis Chama to regain people confidence. People are joining PF because of poverty not on moral issues. If their parties had a president they would have stayed. How many politicians do we have circulating from one party to another? If you join something its because you believed in it from the get go. Joseph Mulyata, Katongo Kameya and Ethel Mamnyima have no morals in my books. Were is development because E. Lungu goes to S.A for medical treatment why not UTH? Kambwili steals construction money? UNZA does not pay lecturers, what rural electrification? Please stop the lies!!

    • Inonge command that lazy Ngosa Syamb-fimofimo to arrest Davies Chama, is not the minister of police or they changed him?

  2. Madam, It is the SG of your blood sucking part that is violent. I am so surprised you continue to tolerate it. I guess if bo wina rose from the dead, he would die again immediately upon seeing how far your tolerance of hooliganism has gone.

    • Mr. Chama as SG of a Party (the ruling party in this case) was legitimately in Mulobezi for campaigns. What was the cadre who was shot doing in Mulobezi? And why is it that it was a UPND cadre vs. the PF SG? Who would believe that Mr. Chama attacked the cadre? Guys, scheming violence is not a winning formula.

  3. Now upnd can you tell the nation on the defection of Joseph mulyata has he also stolen campaign money given to him by hh or what?

    • You must be a novice to Zambian politics.Defections says little about a party’s popularity.In Zambian politics ,the stomach comes first.

      They pf is taking advantage of the poverty which is so rife in our villages.

      PF NOTHING LASTS FOREVER!

  4. Have you dealt with David Chama madam? The law is against the outsider of PF and it is for the insider in this case.

    PF is now a new MMD. I could call it Patriotic Front for Movement Multiparty after democracy (PFMMD). If Sata rose from the dead (MHSRP) he would lament on how Bwezani Banda and his team have changed colors.

  5. If she is really vice president of pf, she must deal with chama. That black mamba is the one who ferried pipo from elsewhere for violence in mulobezi.

  6. What about the millions of £ that the Zambian government confiscated from the BRE upon independence. When will that money be paid back? No well meaning Zambian supports the call for succession but the Zambian government needs to start making good on the full agreement as it was agreed to at downing street. ALAS ITS ELECTION TIME AND EVERY SENIOR GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL WANTS TO VISIT WESTERN PROVINCE. WHERE ARE THESE PEOPLE DURING NON ELECTION TIME? THE PEOPLE ARE NOT FOOLS YOU WILL NOT PULL A DONCHI KUBEBA. NO WAYS NON FINNISH!

  7. Mama Inonge I give u all the respect but unfortunate u are on a wrong camp of pf thugs. U must stop pretending otherwise you will lose the respect which you command. You know who the culprits are in the name of Chama the thug. Make sure that this thug chama is arrested.

  8. The only Chama would be disciplined is if KAMBWILI signs off. KKAMBWILI has quietly taken over running party affairs. KAMBWILI LEAVES AND PF IS DONE ON THE CB. ALREADY CRUMBLED IN NORTHERN, LUAPULA AND MUCHINGA. THATS WHY LUNGU IS PANICKING AND IS TRYING TO BUY OR BRIBE NORTHWESTERN AND WESTERN PROVINCES. NOW HON KAMBWILI IS THE LINK. CRUMBLE IN COPPERBELT. PF IS DONE. LUNGU BETTER KISS KAMBWILI AND ASK HIM TO CONTROL CHAMA!

  9. yaba! the same people who defected long ago seem to redefect over again and again. these lozis are super comedians for real.
