President Edgar Lungu has urged the police to prevent the ferrying of cadres ahead of the September 24, 2015 parliamentary by-elections in Lubansenshi and Solwezi West.
President Lungu says he has received information that the opposition UPND is ferrying cadres from Chawama to intimidate electorates in Lubansenshi and Solwezi West constituencies ahead of the by elections.
Speaking to journalists at City Airport before departure for Lubansenshi to drum up support for the PF Candidate George Mwamba, President Lungu says the police should ensure that those entering the two areas are well meaning Zambians.
President Lungu says there is need for Zambians to treat each other in a humane way as they are the same people affected by the same challenges.
But UPND Spokesperson Charles Kakoma says the party is not transporting any cadres from any part of the country to the two constituencies.
Mr. Kakoma told ZNBC News in a telephone interview that his party is promoting peace because it feels that is the best way of winning the elections.
President Edgar Lungu says government will have to take radicals measures in the short term to put Zambia’s economy back on track.
And President Lungu has said that there is need for citizens to reach consensus on measures to be taken in the interim in order to prevent things from getting out of hand.
The Head of State said that the country should agree on whether government should cut down on rolling out infrastructure development programs and other mechanisms of earning foreign exchange.
The President has however, assured the nation that government is on course in restoring the economy.
Meanwhile, President Lungu has expressed concern that some opposition political party leaders are busy accusing him of not listening to advice when they are not offering any solutions.
He said learned and enlightened Zambians understand that what the country is going through is not unique but arises from effects of the global meltdown.
Talema navo.
Edgar Lungu has no heart. UPND has lost a leader Winston Chibwe, that Edgar can’t even visit the funeral home or send a condolence message to UPND, all he knows about them are campaigns.
An indirect, read between the lines instruction from the Chief Commander, to the Police, to harass and restrict movements of opposition campaign teams around the constituencies.
They sacrificed Chibwe as way of winning the tow bye elections!! SATANISTS!!! It wont work!
Then UPND must have used over a hundred buses to take the cadres to Solwezi judging from the crowds that I saw welcoming HH and also GBM in Solwezi
Why should he be recognised? You only know him not all Zambians
Awe mwandi! We ferried fire wood only and so far we have managed without him! But i know, if there will be alot of beer, be sure to see him but somehow i doubt that because HH has declared no alcohol
Who ferried Tashila Lungu from Chawama (or she moved to state house too?) to Lubambashi, was it UPND? We saw her with her ka fist in the air, in her muscle shirt, exposing her countable arm-pit hair and bra-less limbs.
PF stop ferrying daughters to by-erections.
@ Nostradamus
Star nyoko iwe chikachema! Why cant you first look at your ugly daughters and leave our pretty Tasila alone? You have now become like M’membe just ranting and yelling but no one takes you seriously. Imwe fi UPND, whenever you very well know that you are losing an election, you start ifimfulunganya, when you know very well that you are no march to the mighty PF if it had to respond.
Just go tell you kachema mukalamba HH and your fritter GBM that Zambians balimikana, you have been rejected and it shall be so forever!!!!
@Nostradamus i like it stop ferrying doughters to byelections
@kolopa
You are a cursed soul! This not a place for you kids….@Nostradamus is your father’s uncle, he’s the one who paid cows for your mother, for you to be born,, so who are you insulting??
@Nostra: I like you humour; but for some poor desparate souls like one chikolopo (rug for wiping filthy floors); the humour is like a conconction super-saturated sea salt, hot mexican chillies, tear gas, battery acid, all rolled into one recipe & being shoved down one’s throat! Panic, desparation, confusion & hyper-inflated keyboard aggression just beacuse of a humourous comment has left me perplexed, not knowing whether to cry or laugh. Suffice to say its testimony of how SICK/”mental” the Zambian situation is! Surely you are ABOVE such, and we can all see who the BIG FOOL is!
@Nostradamus if upnd care about chibwe where is hh and gbm? These are the ones belived they must be at the funeral home instead they are in Lubansenshi but you want HECL to mourn chibwe
ECL should simply send a message of condolences, that shows kindness and humanity.
HH has already announced through his facebook page that he his visiting Chibwes funeral home tomorrow, follow him on facebook and leave our president alone.
Meanwhile your Edgar Chibulamano Lungu is using the presidential jet for party activities which is against the law
Ka Edgar has run out of ideas…
@ Mwansa
You are wrong. H.E. cannot run out of ideas for one simple reason, he never had any ideas in a first place.
Ka Ronaldinho Chimenomeno Lungu, no idea. But he knows how to mix tujilijili and Jameson’s.
like wise HH has cannot transform Zambia as he claims he will, when he has allegedly neglected the House where his parents presently live! even the school HH attended in his early education (Mooya Primary school) remains in shambles. How can one trust such a character for large national assets. in fact this is the same chap who undervalued our national assets for personal Benefit during the privatization process.
Have you been to his parents house? Show us what your chagwa and chama have done. Wa litumpa iwe chipuba cha muntu.
@Ruwe stop posing as me. People knows my broken English. I have no “chap” in my vocabulary.
where is Ndobo to tell you to get a life. You know, I will cause misfortunes in your family, kukulowa fye. I have friends from Hatti.

Not me, ndekulowa owe. What do I know about HH & all those primary schools, are they from Luapula? Never use my name unless you need a funeral upon yourself.
@notradamus – you have been cloned my brother. ni mwa lungu muno kikiki. ukose, thes clones can look like you but can never be the person they are cloned after.
when hunger is hammering your stomach your eyes will see the children of the rich as beatyful becoz they have food,
UPND you are desperate for an election so that you can come and fill up all Govt jobs with T.o.ngas, shame on you
Guess used to poverty ba kajo…Your mind boss is very shallow…you have been brain washed big time.Is that what you are scared of mampara instead of talking about the economy with is in shambles.What is with you about Tongas ba mampara imwe…Shame on you
@KAJO, you must be desperate for an erection yourself. She a Tonga bull they might give you the remedy!
“Before you take the speck out of you brother’s eye remove the log from your eye” the people the north are always judging the people of the south as being tribal. When the late M C Sata filled most almost all the key government positions, Parastatals and other strategic institutions with links to the government with his relatives and fellow tribesmen and tribeswomen from the north no one said anything. Now with the UPND which hasn’t even ascended to power, it has been already been branded tribal. The northerners practice what can be termed as passive tribalism, they mingle with other tribes, force then to speak their language, practice tribalism but are quick to point out another tribes unity as being tribal. Remember while one finger is pointing at others three fingers are pointing…
But you Lungu has ordered the police to harass HH and GBM in sowlezi while you are have gone to give support to your candidate is that fair,the police are also stupid why should you be used by pf
We should not at any time vote for HH and UPND, hence we will cry like our brothers ans sisters in MALAWI. They voted out Joyce Banda and brought in Peter Mutharika, now Mutharika has failed and they say he should resign. Edgar Lunugu please keep it up with your good work.
Dull pio it’s you and your edgar who have failed to save Zambia. HH the best among them all and no matter how you scream come 2016 the elections will kick out the pathetic failures and their leaders.
That photo says it all about our “busy” president with the backdrop of the GRZ Challenger jet!!
Comment:who is winstone chibwe? the president has more pressing issues than that, moreover davies chama can go to the funeral house….have you seen HH at the funeral house iwe ka notradamus,,, waba ifimina
obviously all you comentators don’t leave in Zambia or you are drunk can you not see what is going on around you….everyday prices incleasing, no zesco, no water. Cally on voting for pf you will see yourself standing in cues for 2 hours to buy a loaf of bread – if there will even be bread
I thought you are from mabumu, kobia, namapa………….your English is bloken, rike zati!
ba UPND MWALIKWATA FI CONFIDENCE MWEBA AMA ELECTIONS ABANTU TABALA VOTER
Which economy is Lungu trying to put back on track when just a few days ago Amos Chanda assured us that the economy was on track?
@ Songo
Amos Chanda was right, Zambian economy is on the track to create hunger and destitution for millions and huge wealth stashed outside borders of Zambia for few vision-less selfish “leaders”.
STOP LISTNNING TO PF CADRES THEY ARE ALL DRUNK LIKE THERE PRESIDENT LUNGU NALUNGULE FINTU.
How can any one give Lungu any solutions when he has not called for the national INDABA. He pretends he knows it all. I am happy he is admitting things are not okey in Zambia. The solution is to resign since he admitted that he has no vision. Let the people with a vision take over. Presidency is not a vocation its a serious position that should add value to peoples.IF person of the caliber of Mwanawasa state council called for the National indaba what about Ka Lungu.
The ultimate solution any way is for the (Wamuyaya) HH to resign and UPND to select a better leader such as Pro Ndulo, etc. that’s when UPND will have a genuine chance to form government. lets face is HH is unsalable period!
Sorry bloggers for my earlier remarks regarding HE Lungu, as dot know what i was posting.
After years of denials and sidestepping on accusations of his conduct during the 1990s privatisation process, newly released documentation shows that HH illegally benefited from his position by acquiring shares in Sun International Ltd. months before the company was awarded the tender, and failed to declare interest in a number of companies he owns along with key officials involved in the privatisation process.
In the attached matrix which includes official copies of documentation from the Patents and Companies Registration Agency (PACRA) as well as Zambia Privatisation Agency (ZPA), the evidence reveals that Mr. Hichilema in his role as Negotiating Chairman for the sale of the Intercontinental Hotel Livingstone and the Rainbow Lodge selected the lowest bid by Sun International Ltd. in…
I bought shares in Avani who have just bought out Sun International what does that make me ?
The best way to deal with well known Idi0ts, haters, paid Bloggers its to confuse them at they own stupid games of hatred. they wont know who is who…. excellent taste of your medicine!
So Chawama is a den if thugs.thanks for the admission from former resident no 1.
stolen money confuses pipo like the Hakachemas Hing’ombe
Foolish zingalume nowonder you stay in zingalume compound. You have no brains…*****.
This guy and chawama are inseparable, in his usual daydreams after sipping on some icy cold…… He has seen busloads of chawamans enroute to kyawama solwezi mabanga mabanga, just like he previous had visions of nawakwi impounding a ECZ truck during bangweulu by elections, later dreamt about criminal elements sponsored by opposition clad in pf attire to cause mayhem at soweto market. His soothsayers are not doing him any good, they keep giving him wrong data on what the future holds.
Maybe I am mistaken…but I was under the impression that Chawama was a PF stronghold…..
Since when did it become a UPND area??? How does your neighbour come into your home and ferry your children? And your main concern is tha you hope their ferrying them is all meant well!!!! Amazing!!!
Judging by these comments and the vibes I a getting from Zambians generally, the decline of RB and Kaunda’s popularity is beginning to dim in comparison. Question is how does a president who rode such a popularity wave lose it so quickly?
LUNGU KNOWS IT THAT THE WIND OF CHANGE IS SWEEPING AGAINST HIM. VISION-LESS LUNGU HAS DROWNED OUR COUNTRY INTO POVERTY AND HUGE EXTERNAL DEBTS. ABASH LUNGU! ABASH JAMESON KACHASO. ABASH PATHETIC FOOLS, ABASH PF!
