The opposition MMD has with immediate effect suspended its National Youth Secretary Bowman Lusambo for alleged gross misconduct and bringing the name of the party into disrepute.

Party Spokesman Rapheal Nakachinda told Journalists that Mr Lusambo was suspended on Monday, September 22 2015.

Mr Nakachinda said Mr. Lusambo has been suspended due to his failure to toil the party line.

He said Mr Lusambo’s close association with the ruling Patriotic Front has been a source of concern for the MMD.

Mr Nakachinda added that Mr Lusambo clearly failed to advance the causes and beliefs of the MMD.

‘Yes i can confirm that Bowman Lusambo has been suspended from the party. A few weeks ago he was served with a letter charging him for gross misconduct and bringing the party’s name in disrepute for his continued statements and utterances through the media that are against the party policy on many issues,’ Mr Nakachinda said.

He added, ‘His clear alignment with the PF even when as a party leadership has made its position clear, you see him going contrary to that position.’

    • When you shall hear of suspensions and commotions in the party, do not be surprised for these things are groans of a dying party and must come to pass before the party becomes history.

    • are you serious this is not a wise decision? . Lusambo will be better with PF because they have money. MMD needs people with brains, can help the party move up

  1. MAYBE THE BEST HEADLINE SHOULD READ “BOWMAN LUSAMBO DITCHES MMD”. BECAUSE MMD DIED A LONG TIME AGO. HE CANNOT CONTINUE CLINGING TO A DEAD PARTY LIKE A TICK ON A DEAD DOG.

  2. Poor Nervous Mumba will have a nervous break down. This form five high school drop out doesn’t understand the functioning of structures he does not know when to negotiate concede and even navigate. If he had been smarter then he is albeit with limited education he should have ‘let’ RB’ run in 2015.RB would have been sent to the political archives. Instead he fought Kachingwe, Muhabi, Siliya, Banda etc. the result? 15000 votes that’s not even Munali constituency alone. He was even pipped by Edith. In 2016 more misery and the final burial of this movement that brought soooo much misery and corruption to our once sane nation.

  3. Is this confirming Lusambo’s claims that he is being prevented from ascending to the Vice-Presidency of the party? It is common Zambian practice to kill off rivals before their intentions come to public fruition. What a useless political landscape.

  4. Hahaha….@Chisenga wandepula at “HE CANNOT CONTINUE CLINGING TO A DEAD PARTY LIKE A TICK ON A DEAD DOG”. Clinging to a dead party will automatically result into njala

  5. Does MMD exist anywhere in Zambia since RB left ? Lusambo could just be laughing about this useless move.He is better off with Lungu than Mumba.

  6. It is a pit for Lusambo , Nevers people told you about this young man , he is like a devil who changes when ever his master runs out out of money . he likes money Like no man”s business .Lusambo was Die hard for mwanawasa . he did not die together with him . after burying him, he changed camp and become RB “s Die Hard , Mumba comes in the same fo,ol becomes , Mumba’s Die hard , now he is Lungu’s Die Hard . this is how crooks behave no doubt about it , Mumber was warned about this guy he never listened now nikolwe pitenimo nembwa .you chased genuine people because they said no to lusambo >we saw it coming Walusambo is after money In 2016 he will become hh’s die hard , he is earning a living . this are the crooks we do not want in modern politics , God is watching

  7. Are bloggers really serious – Is this Lusambo thing a factor in politics to even think of him being a VC of a party? Please give us a break guys. The Lusambo chap has smelt money from Lungu – too late though because Lungu is standing at the exit door!

  8. Good move, I would rather have 100 loyal members fighting for the same cause than having 1000 pulling in different directions. Though you are not likely to form government next year, as an association, your members need to abide by the rules. You need to do the same to MPS like Vincent Mwale, he was a campaign manager for another party instead of your own party. Meaning after getting his gratuity, he will cross over. He is currently playing a fool while he is aligning himself to where he wants to be. He was once my hero just like Muhabi Lungu, but alas shame on the people we entrust with governance.

  9. Crossing the river where it is shallow. What about Vincent mwale who was PF campaign manager in eastern province? Isnt that association with the PF?

  10. There will be no MMD in 2016…

    When UPND forms government, we shall get the following people to join us to contribute towards the development of Zambia:-

    Antonio Mwanza
    Edith Nawakwi
    Peter Sinkmba
    Erick Chanda
    Sinda MP

  11. Doctor Mumba, please finis ‘ukusekwila’ and remove all the weeds. This Lusamboa was a big weed stopping good things to grow in the MMD pasture. You have shown that you are a father and gave Lusambo enough rope to hang himself. He has hang himself! End of story. Let him now be DIE HARD FOR LUNGU.

    You have removed bigger fish than Lusambao starting with Kachingwe. now its RB’s turn. Don’t KUTINA. RB must be plucked out and the coast will finally be clear for you tot ake over and rule Zambia. NEVERS SEKWILA MUMBA – ULIBAUME PA BAUME. I ADMIRE YOU.
