PRESIDENT Lungu says his involvement in the Angolan oil deal was meant to encourage private sector participation, unlike what has been suggested by The Post Newspapers.
The President, who was speaking on arrival in Solwezi to scores of people who welcomed him, said accusations of corruption in the Angola oil deal were unfair, especially that he has not interfered with the Anti-Corruption Commission since he was voted into office.
The President also lashed out at Post Newspapers Editor-in-Chief Fred M’membe who he said was a bitter man because he failed to help his friend Rainbow Party leader Wynter Kabimba to ascend to power after the death of President Michael Sata.
The President advised Mr M’membe to pay his workers on time adding that the Post Newspaper owner has begun a battle with him through his Newspaper by publishing false information.
The Head of State said Mr M’membe is lying to the Zambian people that he helped the Patriotic Front (PF) to form government when he has been against the ruling party for a long time as evidenced by his evil schemes to hijack the party.
Mr Lungu said it is the poor people of Zambia who sacrificed for the party to usher the PF into government and this is the reason late President Sata did not allow PF to be hijacked by people with money to avoid being enslaved.
“Mr M’membe is a bitter man because he failed to help his friend Wynter Kabimba to ascend to power and God is above all this manipulation and he allowed me to become President,” Mr Lungu said.
President Lungu, however, said he has no personal grudge against Mr M’membe and his employees but advised the newspaper to be factual in its reporting as it exercises its right to freedom of speech.
He has since assured Mr M’membe that government wants to see the newspaper continue with its production but advised him to pay his workers on time and not waste resources on funding political activities of the Rainbow party.
Mr Lungu said he has been quiet for a long time but he has decided to respond to Mr M’membe to clear the air.
He has since advised Mr M’membe to take him on if he thinks he is engaging in criminal activities.
“So because I have not allowed them latitude of manipulating the ACC, the police and other government agencies, I have become their enemy,” he said.
And Mr Lungu has advised Zambians not to give power to the opposition UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema and his vice president Geoffrey Mwamba because the two want to use the Zambians to amass wealth.
President Lungu, however, said people have a democratic right to elect a leader of their choice but that Zambians have slowly begun to appreciate him since he became President.
He also assured Zambians that he will work hard to unite the country through the One Zambia One Nation motto. President Lungu also said he still loves the people of North-Western Province even if they do not vote for the PF candidate Martin Mbaya in the forthcoming Solwezi West Parliamentary by election. He also advised people not to listen to false stories from his critics that the current power deficit the country is facing due to low water levels at Kariba North bank has been caused by the PF because no one can fight with nature.
On the mining sector, President Lungu said the mines are facing challenges because of the low copper prices prevailing on the market.
President Lungu urged Zambians to work together and find solutions to the problems the country is facing.
While at the airport, President Lungu was joined by former President Rupiah Banda, who thanked the people of North-Western Province for the support rendered to President Lungu during the January 2015 presidential elections.
Mr Banda also advised Zambians to give President Lungu the respect he deserves saying no country can live in peace if people continue to attack a democratically elected President.
President Lungu said he would not abandon the former head of State despite accusations from the Post newspaper that Mr Banda was corrupt when he has been cleared by the courts of law.
Earlier, North-Western Province PF chairman Emmanuel Chihili said it is no longer a secret that the political landscape in the province is changing towards the ruling party since President Lungu assumed office.
Hehehehe kanitundila
We have said it many times that hatred and bitterness are not only cancerous to one’s dreams and life, but they are poisonous chalice that can take the hater quicker than wished. They eat the hater than the hated fast and lethally. The hater is preoccupied thinking of how to destroy their perceived enemies and talking about the hated who is too busy with what he takes passion in and his business without a thought of the hater. In our Zambian case, a thousand waked souls of hatred and bitterness will fall in vanity over their enemy. ECL has God’s mandate over the Zambian people and haters will fall flat in droves.
Lungu has no spine.
I think he has no control of the PF either. Somewhat I think his vice president and Banda control him a lot more than we care to think.
Good man but wrong man for the job.

In a matter of one speech, Lungu both denies and admits interfering with the Anti Corruption Commision. Lies are difficult to keep up with even by those telling them!
This is the calibre of the individual we have given the mandate to run Zambia. he’s very Petty and ignorant
Jamasoni Lungu kuya bebele
Viva HH
Why talk about Mmembe? Lobito Oil gate was unearthed just a week ago.
What we want to hear, bbwana, is what plans you have of fixing our collapsing economy.
Whether Mmembe is full of hatred towards you is irrelevant to us.
2016 budget will be released next month. Your utterances should be hinting at what we should expect in the election year 2016.
Is this really all this man knows how to do?
Zambia is facing huge challenges and all he can talk about is his petty squabbles with other people?
He sounds like a spoilt child, definitely not like a President of a Nation. Grow up and show some maturity!
This man has proved he is totally incapable of running the country and is a complete disaster. He should immediately admit he has failed and resign so that Zambia can have a leader that can do the job.
What matters now bwana president is to address the issue of the collapsing Economy. Zambians are no longer interested in personal battles. We need a better life as Zambians. If Lungu will spend more time on petty squabbles then he will cry like RB in 2011.We need a serious and critical thinker to solve this paradox of leaving in a poor country yet endowed with rich human and material resources. Zambians lets stop being petty for once and chose someone who will uplift our economy, that is cardinal.
But Edgar Lungu is surely a dull president, thats all he can say at the airport after spending colasal sums of money flying to Solwezi.
What a dull and useless president we have, he is worth just for cleaning the toilet for Rupiah.
@malama Hilder, awe if Edger did not pay you after aminyenga before he was a president ,just find ways of getting your dues rather shawaring insults at hin everyday,maybe he has forgotten about you cos there alot of prosititutes in bars he used to patronise
i support mmembe. Lungu is out of his depth and he is surrounded by people that have broken the law many a times.
Anyone but Lungu
Thanks
Bb2014
Mushota my former wise frend. Are u now upnd? U can’t support Mmembe on anything. I used to but I have realised that to him what matters most is business and not principles. Lungu is genuine and humble. He has just come at a time when nature isn’t on his side.
@ other side …”Mushota my former wise frend. Are u now upnd? U can’t support Mmembe on anything. I used to but I have realised that to him what matters most is business and not principles. Lungu is genuine and humble. He has just come at a time when nature isn’t on his side.”
That is precisely why we need leaders. They are supposed to shine brighter in times of trouble .. David and Goliath illustration …
SO the it is very clear that baba Lungu is really not leadership quality. May be he needs more time ..unfortunately time is a luxury Zambia cannot afford .
@ Johnsmith
Lungu “leadership” material? Are you kidding. More likely Bugs Bunny in search of “stash” of carrots (3 billion of green-bucks) for rainy days
Yes as SG of pf am now confirming that its true Chagwa is accompanied by the former president RB in NW campaigns. Am sure people were doubting. Be assured RB’s influence will help to win that seat in Solwezi West.
Edgar Lungu is extreamely worried of defeat in 2016 hence to desparately get Rupiah Banda from the achives to help him. Yesterday, i was in Solwezi and the welcome for Edgar Lungu was hostile. People from all walks of life were shouting “we want chage” just like the soccer fans on the Copperbelt who are demanding for the removal or substitute of Edgar Lungu.
@Gerald which soccer fans on the copperbelt are u referring to? Typical upnd mentality. I beliv u meant Lusaka
Edgar Lungu should just start preparing to leave the presidency. He is finding it difficult to campaign freely in his stronghold like Northern Province; what more wen it comes to other provinces where he is not popular. Things will be worse for Lungu. In Lubansenshi, Mumbi Phiri has so far spent K700 000 dishing out to electorates in a bid to scope the by election at all cost, but still things are not okey.
Edgar Lungu believes that Rupiah Banda is the one who helped him to win the presidency on 20 January 2015. And so sensing defeat in Solwezi West, he has decided to bring back the old man from the farm with a hope of winning him Solwezi Seat.
He is 100% desparate and is ready to kill just to win the seat.
WHAT IS RB DOING THERE.RB IS 100 PER CENT AN *****!
RB has become Lungu’s forerunner. He is now John the Baptist preparing the way for Jesus (Lungu) who will be rejected in Jerusalem (Solwezi). Anyway, John the Baptist was a holy envoy for another holy man Jesus not this RB fore running a useless leader. Every time I hear the name RB I think of corruption, lack of transparency and lack of accountability which made corruption a widespread phenomenon, a normative behaviour, and did nothing to curb it.
What is democracy? Is there anything wrong with GBM joining UPND? is there anything wrong in Winter Kabimba forming his own party? Is there anything wrong in a former head of state supporting his preferred candidate? Does a former head of state have no democratic rights? Think about if you can.
How can a former president like RB be soo partisan. Cry my beloved country.
@PHILADELPHIA,
You go ask Bill Clinton and our very own KK if you follow politics closely.
Senior Citizen you are 100% correct even their leader HH is preoccupied with hatred, how can God allow them to rule when they have so much hatred. Even on this blog they are the first ones to insult our God given President. But we forgive them because we know it’s the devil driving them
I am sick and tired of hearing you bloggers saying how Lungu is our God given President!
Don’t you know he was ELECTED by human voters?
If God had anything to do with it, maybe he allowed this pathetic excuse into State House as punishment on the people of Zambia for their stupidity and greediness!
Senior Citizen says “ECL has God’s mandate” !!!! What utter rubbish! He has no such thing. Obviously this F00L has no idea about what he is talking about.
@Ba mambwe which God given President? Don’t cheat your Self to that. Out of the six Presidents Zambia had only three are God Given the other three they win through rigging. God given leader is Loved by the Majority and he prospers in leading the people, not these who force themselves to power then you claim them to be God given no. God will punish you for using his name in vain. Shaaa.
RB is just so irritating to look at he has no self respect and pride the people of Zambia hate that’s why he was kicked out of office, wrong company Lungu.
@zambia,
You must be a very immature and emotional manipulated mind to believe that loss of power in democracy means being hated by the people. That is curved cow dung theory bought in kraals. What do you say of the likes of HH who has been rejected 4 times heading for his 5th at national level other than in his tribe? What do you say of US’s President Jimmy Carter, President George Walker Bush, or indeed our very own President Kaunda all who lost power in democratic elections?
It was the evil Fred Mmembe who painted RB to be corrupt. When PF came into power Mmembe went flat out for RB up until now where is the evidence that RB is corrupt ?. Even HH supported RB when he was being prosecuted
And the tax evasion of PEPSI was orchestrated by? RB was, it is and will die as piece of shit.
Handi & MY BROTHER,
What you anticipate could be true or not, but is that what the sponsors (PF carders) thinking? Remember you are both talking as foreigners including your sister Mushota who even contradicts herself…first she calls ECL Goodman and says wrong man. What does that mean to the Voter? The voter wants to vote for a Good man…AND then she supports Mmembe> Is Mmembe contesting the 2016 elections? RB is a politician who has disappointed hh before and will continue to disappoint hh nafuti nafuti. So what are you going to do about it? Are you to complain, cry and what else? You lack style of campaigning and that’s why hh, Kabimba, Nawakwi, Mulongoti and other opposition parties shall lose and lose badly. You are for the theories and probability only not for real..
The EL/RB team is the most unfortunate combination that has ever arisen in our country. They are a curse to Zambia and because of them the country is headed for doom unless they leave the reigns of power. Zambian voters let us not listen to their lies but we must unite and exit them faster than they came. 2016 HH and UPND chabe. PF is dead, Just see how Chama is killing it and no Yaluma calls them stupid, and he furthers says pf will be voted out. EL ascended to power through the window of trickery, bulling, and deception. God has rejected this man and he will perish with pf in 2016 because true Zambians have woken up accross limitations of tribe, region and partyism, and are resolved to salvage the remains of our country..
Whatever RB touches fails. Just check his history.
this guy called Lungu, is a faceless lier he has all along been denying he had anything to do with the Angolan oil deal, now he says he was giving support. Why even allow use of the presidental jet to deliver a letter instead of using the embassy in angolan. Wat was he hiding. Same method RB used.
Lungu was minister of justice if he knew RB wad innocent why did he table the removal of his immunity, shows he is a coward or a lier who can not be trusted. Hate is within him dats why miles is a deputy minister and Northern province police chief has been demoted.
People of nort west dont forget davis chama and his party called you dogs coz you didn’t vote for lungu. Zambians you forget easily, today they say they love you. Shame.
Why not unleash the ZRA on this PAST fellow?
Its a fact, he no longer sells enough copies to pay workers and ZRA because we are not buying it any more.
How can One Zambia One nation Wako ni Wako unite the country. Some dullness is difficult to comprehend.
chakolwa & kanitundila 0 kachema & grt bg of maize 10
Shame on these two corrupt leaders,zed pipo rejeted rb cos of his corruption crusade he championed,now pilled to lungu to inherit God forbid,2016 we’re substituting Lunga/RB with HH the man of the choice,get to northern,copperbelt,Lsk and walk on the streets hear how pipo talk about yo Lungu,wind of change for sure,here in northwetsrn whether with rb or not lungu shall loose terribly
Read Wikileaks files of 2009 on Zambia, an audit report by our own Auditor General Anne Chifungula. Former and late president Levy Mwanaeasa in cohort with Mutembo Nchito, Fred Mmembe, Darlington Mwape and Others stole USD836billion from the Zambian government through a botch oil transaction with a company called TST. The then permanent secretary in the Ministry of Energy Josephine Mapoma facilitated “the report reads”.
HH’s company during the privatisation of RAMCOZ transaction was earning USD12m per month for a year and half when families in Luanshya where bedestroyed and starving to death.
USD 836 BILLION??
Go back to school and learn to count before you show your ignorance and stupidity here in public!
We like the truth and facts here, not lunatic ramblings!
@ big kas
1mbecile, can you read numbers ?
One moment the presidents spokesman and Energy minister are denying that Lungu is not involved. The next moment Lungu is admiting that he is involved! Why so many contradctions? Ifyakulya ubushiku fimonekela kumalushi. (what is eaten in the secrecy of the night/darkness becomes visible for all to see in the vomit).
This is truly laughable and ironic…surely how can you talk about corruption and shady oil dealings with one Rupiah Banda standing next to you. Who ever advises this dull lazy bum we call President needs to fired; with so many national issues going on…how can you talk about one individual? How does a head of state publicly pick a fight with someone who has a barrelfull of ink…you are simply playing into Me’embe’s hands.
This bum Edgar is too dull to be a head of State.
Well done Lungu ! The Cartel will never win elections in Zambia no matter how many hate articles their ka newspaper write every day.They can start even publishing 3 editions per day.Zambians are able to see through their lies.
Isto é engraçado. O negócio de óleo cheira mal. Talvez seja a presença de um presidente que adora óleo e ofertas oleosas.
Some presidents just have well oiled fingers. Others have well soiled fingers. Look who’s back in town. JR and his mini me.
I love this country called Zambia which is promoting democracy especially under the leadership of Pres Lungu.The biased articles we read in a certain newspaper if it were in other undemocratic countries else where in Africa,it was going to be history for this paper.Keep it up Zambians ! Your country is blessed but never take things for granted.
Promoting what Democracy?
PF under Sata and now under Lungu have spent millions of Zambian Taxpayers US Dollars trying to muzzle and block the ZWD and Zambia Reports because they are critical of this Government. And they expose the LIES and CORRUPTION happening in the Country!
Now Lungu is trying to discredit newspapers too!
Innocent men have nothing to hide. Why is he so worried now?
@victor
Which court has convicted RB ? Do not join battles you least understand.The Cartel and Membe have a hidden agenda against RB.Now Kabimba failed to get the presidency from Sata and they think they can cheat Zambians now to change govt…..its impossible.
The post should start paying workers in good time.They are hypocrites !
ECL’s reception in solwezi two wks gave him sleepless nites,and so has decided to engage RB. But what i witnessed in solwezi yesterday was only closer to Kaunda’s final days when he was boed,pelted and jeered everywhere he went. The system should be sincere and avoid exposing the president to embarassment. The writing is clear on the wall. yes they may win solwezi west for now the desperation can be seen. There is money, bicycles,watches, cooking oil, rice at all polling stations being distributed by PF.
So Kanitundila is no longer a ‘flight risk’
@ manzo
Your ka tribal party is now feeling the heat of PF in NWP…..It is now common knowledge that NWP is at a very fast rate becoming a PF strong hold.UPND will only remain with nega nega province.
UPND caders why do u call names and insult ECL so much, be reminded that you do not win an election by calling somebody names and insulting. Have some respect at least. as much as we know that you were wounded in the last election should not warrant this kind of bitterness from you. its not ECL who voted himself into power that you should hate him so much, if you are bitter vent it to Zambians who voted for him. When you insult him you are as well insulting Zambians who voted for him. and you think they will vote for your candidate, NO. you are doing yourself a disservice and you don’t know politics, you are naive ” kabudo politicians” All the people that voted for ECL will not vote for you for insulting their intelligence.
This is besides the topic, but quite interesting:
Has anybody realised the great similarities between the late Michael Sata of Zambia, and the American, Donald Trump. Obsession with China, temperament, quick wittedness, sharp tongue..etc, etc, etc….all so identical !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Meanwhile, I hope our current politicians are learning a few things from these Americans.
Lingu has just shown here that he is scared of Mmembe. A person does not just start speaking that way about his foe unless they are wary of them. Lungu and RB are very aware of Mmembe and they are scared of the amount of damage he is likely to cause to them given the tools. If Mmembe was not giving them sleepless nights he would not even be spending time talking about him.
HH talks lots and lots of hogwash, does he ever appear in M’membes Past?
Come 2016. Luapula has already voted.
PF 89% followed by FDD with 7% Mamba’s MMD at 4%.
@ Luapula Premier, then you are telling us that the 89% are complete id!ots!
How can anyone vote for this dull and stup!d Lungu who goes on holiday to Mozambeque and tells them Zambia will export electricity to them, at THE SAME TIME while there is LOAD SHEDDING at home?????
It is very obvious he has no clue what is going on, even in the country he is supposed to be President of!
Winter Kabimba is corrupt when he was at the council ie city of Lusaka it was agreed to sale houses to sitting tenants but not foreigners. He received a bribe and sold a council house in lubu road to Rodger V lee
@DM! Don’t insult people’s intelligence! Just because people voted for Edgar that time does not mean that they will still vote for him even after seeing the mess he has created! You are talking so as to influence the electorate to give this visionless chap a sympathetic vote! people know what is good and what is bad! If you are chewing with Lungu chew quietly! PEOPLE KNOW WHAT THEY WANT! PF cadres have insulted opposition leaders on many occasions but once abusive language is used against them, they are quick to cry foul. Most of the PF cadres are so dull they can’t even tell you the reason why they voted for ECL if bothered to ask them! They will say he is not tonga! Just imagine that reason coming from someone who is an adult and normal! Very fun indeed!!

Why are you refusing my comments you PF cadres?
I think its not bitterness that m’membe is expressing .You can imagine a country with no opposition and everyone is on the side of those in power ,Currently in this country there is no formidable opposition leader to give checks and balances to president Lungu therefore m’membe should be praised for taking this important and huge role so the president should work hard and improve the lives of the Zambian people
REALLY AFTER ALL THE SILENCE THIS IS ALL LUNGU HAD TO SAY? NO POLICY ANNOUNCEMENTS OR STATE OF THE NATION PRONOUNCEMENTS? THE COUNTRY IS FACING SERIOUS CHALLENGES AND ALL LUNGU CAN TALK ABOUT IS M’MEMBE? SO THE REPORTS THAT SENIOR PF MEMBERS HAVE ABANDONED LUNGU ARE TRUE. THATS WHY HE IS NOW MASQUERADING WITH BANDA. MULENGA SATA HAS BEEN TONGUE TIED AND THREATENED TO BE POLITICALLY OBLITERATED IF HE DARES STAND UP FOR WHAT HIS FATHER FOUGHT FOR. NEVER IN HIS WILDEST IMAGINATION WOULD SATA HAVE EVER EVER EVER ALLOWED BANDA TO TAKE OVER PF NEVER! !!!
why have you removed my comment that i posted earlier, stoo being like Chama who denys lungu was not booed at heroes stadium wen the video is there on watchdog. If Lungu has messed things let pipo say it, Did God give us pipo to get 20% of all projects in the name of development, a leader who is flying all over every week. ZAF has spent more money on fuel flying lungu, wife and daughter then Late Sata.
INONGE WINA QUIET? GIVENS LUBINDA QUIET? MULENGA SATA QUIET? NKANDU LUO? MILES SAMPA QUIET?GUY SSCOTT MAKES NO SECRET ABOUT IT VERY DISAPPOINTED. ABC VERY QUIET? YALUMA QUIET? SEEMS LIKE THERE IS A REVOLT UNDER THE RADAR AND IT WILL NOT BE SURPRISING IF LUNGU IS NOT ADOPTED AS PF CANDIDATE FOR 2016.
They know what is coming and they are busy stealing and eating!
Joker did you even made an effort to google the information l submitted? Honestly l can understand your frustration especially if you do not invest in research and just blindly follow……READ….RESEARCH and you shall be be liberated.
The link where this information Is “Wikileaks file on Zambia 2009 audit report”. GOOGLE!!!!!!
That is my President speaking. He is very bold, and clean. Why is it that M’membe thinks everything that is not on his part is corrupt? Govt transact business and thus where is corruption? M’membe will always be bitter as long as he is not having a grip to power!! He is the most stupid person in Zambia. Go on President Lungu we have given you a mandate to rule until next year. Mmembe is one man who accuse others to be corrupt when he himself if the most corrupt and tyranny man. We haven’t forgotten about the Trafigura deal which they did with their partner Kabimba Homosexual Party; his tracks were transferring coming and leaving the country without paying tax!! The DBZ job and other under deals this man has done. He has accused other people being corrupt, tribalists, bantustan,…
Chihili and Rupiah and Lungu are all kabwalalaz. Chihili stole from kcm, kansanshi and kansanshi foundation R.upiah stole from nigeria oil deal and zambiam Edgar is stole from his client and continues yo steal from zambia. Baka*****bwa bonse
The only person who will champion Lungu’s cause is SG Chama and his press SPOKESMAN Amos. This is a bit like the championing of Chiluba’s third term by Sata which ended up becoming a one man crusade of a fruitless cause. The sooner Lungu realises he is on his own the better. What makes him even more valnerable is that he is currently even dining with his enemies and he does not realise. He might have been in the School of Sata but it’s fair to say that he might have come out with nothing in terms of know how. I put the chap. The writing is on the wall but somehow he can’t see it. Bashi Nono might be down but not out, Emmanuel Mwamba is watching the proceedings from not to far from Zambia and the guys in government are just staying in touch and operating within. Good luck Lungu.
The government media said the president was not involved in the Oil deal now the man himself says I was involved but I was just helping the private sector and still finds room to condemn Mmembe. Ridiculousness. The person we chased in 2011 is now his best friend and all those people who worked hard to remove him from power can just hang. Amazing
Oops! Joker my apologies…..it’s ZMK 838 645 billion, the report reads and l quote:
A 108 page investigative report to the Zambian Assembly, formally titled, PUBLIC ACCOUNTS COMMITTEE REPORT OF THE AUDITOR GENERAL ON THE REVIEW OF OPERATIONS OF THE ZAMBIA NATIONAL OIL COMPANY LIMITED, and dated Oct 2006 implicates the late Zambian President Levy Patrick Mwanawasa, his associates and other members of the government in:
1 – A direct theft on the Zambian Government treasury of K838 645 billion, the ZNOC fictious debt that Miss Josephine Mapoma, permanent secretary in the Ministry of Energy and Water Development certified which debt thr Zambian Government resolved to take over.
2 – U$ 36m value of ZNOC crude oil in TAZAMA Pipeline has not been accounted for.
3 – Very soon it will be…
What has fred mmembe to to with the depreciation of the kwacha and the power crisis.
Membe has been around since 1990 and lungu is just around now.
I think lungu should see clearly what mmembe is saying
pls zambians president edgar lungu was made by the courts of zambia not zambians.
This President is extremely dull, the country is in disarray and all he cares to talk about is Mmembe. Who cares about his differences with Mmembe? Sir, you Have No Sense. Just go back to Chawama.
tashula muli edger
Campaigning with the new owner of PF bwana RB brazenly on the podium… Shame on you
OVER TO YOU ZAMBIANS! THIS IS THE DULL PERSON YOU MADE PRESIDENT LAST JANUARY. WHAT A WEAK AND LOW QUALITY PERSONALITY. LUNGU IS A CROOK, AND WILL REMAIN A CROOK. BOOT HIM OUT!
Fred Mmembe should just pay back the Zambian Airways debt of US$30 million (Plus Interest) which he owes public institutions( Napsa, ZRA, NAC, DBZ). Mwanawasa and Sata were manipulated by Fred. Edger Lungu is a man of the people who wont allow manipulation of any kind. The late George Kunda (MISRIP) warned us about the manipulative tactics of the Fred and his cohorts Mutemba and Nchima Nchito. Kunda worked with the Nchitos to prosecute and “persecute” FTJ, These are ruthless individuals who’s interest is monetary gains at any cost. The Nchitos are unethical and dirty corporate layers, thats how they bought Zambian airways (Mining air Services) in exchange of legal fees only. This is the synopsis and geneses of the deadly Cartal! Its sad that HH is seemingly in good working relation…
M’membe and his minions must pay back the DBZ loan. That’s the cracks of the matter, when Edger Lungu during the presidential campaigns promised to make “certain people pay what they own” the state institutions (ZRA, DBZ, NAC, etc.) Fred Namakando M’membe’s cartel fiercely de-campaigned him. This is because some loans were backed by individuals themselves (As Collateral) such as Mutambo Nchito and Fred M’membe. These loans since then groan big such that they cant afford to pay back, they will run bankrupt.
@ FAKE loadist NO IDEA WHO THIS LOADIST IS BUT ITS CERTAINLY NOT LOADIST. I HAVE NO OPINION ON THE PRIVATE DEBTS OF INDIVIDUAL CITIZENS. SECONDLY I DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH INTELLIGENCE INFORMATION TO COMMENT ON THE EXISTENCE NOR THE STATUS OF M’MEMBES PRIVATE FINACIAL OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES. THEREFORE AS ORIGINAL LOADIST I WISH TO ISSUE A DISCLAIMER TO THE EFFECT THAT THE PRVIOUS COMMENT IS NOT MINE.
I admire President Lungu as a man who dared to take on the cartel that has sought to manipulate state institutions. The privately -owned mouthpiece of the cartel, the Post, will not have told you that Finance Bank has an illegal shareholding structure. These cartel gate-keepers (Mmembe e’tal) have been promulgating a false identity based on a false narrative that every President that refuses to worship them is corrupt. What is a human rights record? Mmembe and those in the cartel think letting same-sex couples raise children is a top human right. This is what the fight is about, the cartel backed by neo – colonizers want to destroy the moral fabric of Zambia. But let it be said to the cartel lackeys of the likes of HH, Guy and Kabimba.
Bitterness in the other camps takes really long to die down!
