Rainbow Party President Wynter Kabimba says the amended constitution is a Shum which has been doctored to favor the ruling Patriotic Front.
Speaking at a media briefing in Lusaka today, Mr. Kabimba says the amended constitution is contrary to the expectations and aspirations of the people citing that what has come out in the constitution is different from what was in the draft constitution.
Mr. Kabimba notes that those in power have hijacked the people’s will noting that the new constitution is intended to entrench and consolidate the PF’s and President Lungu’s position to remain in power.
He says there is nothing legal about the new constitution but that it is merely a political document which indirectly is introducing a one party state and undermines democracy in a deliberate manner.
Mr. Kabimba stresses that the rainbow party does not support the new constitution but strongly condemns it.
He has further implored the people of Zambia to demand for a people driven constitution which his party is ready to give them once voted for.
Some people awe katwishi – Kabimba you are the last person to say anything about the constitution. Stup1d 1diot.
Well said. Second round voting will be Winter against Edgar.
Wynter !! What’s up?
There is a better way of playing to the gallery. Next time we will escort you to Chainama in handcuffs. This is simply Dramatisations. God Save Us !
It just appears like a lot of opposition parties wanted to use the Constitution as a campaign tool to promise the people that –
“” If You Vote For Us We Will Deliver The Constitution. “”
Now this has been snapped away and really they have nothing to cry with. I wonder if any of these parties can even sell or even understand their Manifestos.
Wynter, even if I was blind and deaf I would sense that you are telling lies.
[[ No disrespect to people who blind and deaf. And I don’t intend anyone. ]]
…..correction
Wynter, even if I was blind and deaf I would sense that you are telling lies.
[[ No disrespect to people who are blind and deaf. And I don’t intend to offend anyone. ]]
If we have been dribbled then too bad and the person who has done so is not good.
But ba kabimba sure you are the last person to speak about such becasue when u and ba shikulu ba sata had a chance, you dribbled us big time by hiding the document.
What useless lawyer this Kabimba is! Why can’t he cite the clauses that make the new constitution a bad one, and how?
This guy is a complete joke … he was in charge of the Constitution process under MCS and he was in the forefront making sure serious provisions were excluded. If it was up to this jerk, we still would not have the document to show for.
I once thought this guy was really heading somewhere but right now, he is heading nowhere … rainbow my foot … what a sham of self you personally have become. What an excellent document ECL has given the smart people of the Zambian Enterprise.
It is not perfect but by far it is the best under the circumstances … find something else to politik about, pal!
It’s always difficult to understand a rubbish which rubbished rubbish
Wynter nga Kuti watulanga 1puli lyobe mu public, then we will have proof that the amended constitution is different from the draft.
@ Gen, well said brother…….
Kikikiki,yaba, abantu bamo! Why didn’t you give us a people driven constitution when you were minister of Justice? Ba Kabimba kuwayawayafye!
Kabimba is right, he took the draft constitution with him.
The manner he left PF, there was no chance to handover the People Driven Draft constitution. Kabimba must be arrested for theft of original draft constitution.
Wynter you must be ashamed of yourself and must be the last one to comment on the constitution. You were a small and very arrogant God in PF.
Has he ever, in his personal capacity, supported any constitutional amendment? Laughable for sure!!!
No wonder Mr HH had said in the past that even if Mr Kabimba was the only and last Lawyer in the world he would not hire him…
Just say that you have failed to raise the 1,000 supporters required. ..Woah!
There’s no surprise here, Wynter is a drama chap. Wynter Kabimba is disappointed because he’s been left out of the race.
It is a shum LT?
Shout him down, insult him, ridicule him, and demonise him: Wynter is just one of the growing crescendo of voices saying NO to this fraud of Lungu.
Lungu is fraudulent. He chewed clients money. He also became PF president through a fraudulent consent judgment engineered and birthed by his minions: Chama and Inonge Wina.
HH said it and ZCSD agreed, Mpombo brohahad it and shortly Nawakwi will shoot it down. This is a Lungu authored and anchored document.
In law we talk of mens rea….the faulty or guilty mind. Lungu knows the current constitution is not what the Tech Review Committee presented. But with intent to deceive, he has unleashed paid bloggers and govt machinery to engage in lies, lies , lies!!
This is true….this shum Comstitution is the death trap of Lungu!!
Winter wanya we!
Ukukwatako insoni in some circumstances a buntu ba Winter please! When you were in the driving seat regarding the constitution you trashed the will of the people and even claimed the draft document was lost … awe ba Winter ikaleni fye. Unless you produce proof that you’ve changed!
Umuntu Insoni for sure
Iwe Wynter
You are irrelevant to democratic politics.
Insoni shakwikata.
According to you PF coribants Wynter is irrelevant. Wait a minute…you said same of Mulongoti, Nawakwi, VJ, Munkombwe, Chamda, HH….!! All opposition are irrelevant ?
Give us a break you haters and one party pushers ba PF.
This fool should be the last person to comment on the constitution,isnt he the same guy who hijacked the constition when he was minister of justice? Sata did well to kick him out!!!!! What a failure
You see now winger! You single handedly hid the the people driven draft. Just think of it if you had been honest enough to give us the people driven draft, these people would not have done what they have done. The problem is that politicians think once they are in the ruling party they will forever be there. Your own act is deeply biting you Mr Kamimba!
ok ba Wynter ba mudala mwabe T lyenu mwaunfwa1
I am shocked by the comments from the former minister of justice. What exactly are his issues, when he sat on the issue and thought that it would die? From that statement one concludes that he lacks insight and wisdom. Yes, the document is not perfect but it has been debated for decades without advancement, till now. I’d rather the cup is half full than empty. I detest people that show no integrity and complain without sincerity and reflection. His Presidential ambitions should stop here.
This is the same man who was playing us double standards on the constitution when he was the justice minister with his president telling us to show him a animal constitution.
You are as bad as edgar chakolwa.
What does this guy kabimba smokes , really he ought to be sick in his head ,he must be taken to chainama as soon as possible , i would rather vote muliokela than this usless red lips kamimbya , u leap what you sow now , wanya uzalila on 11th august
Iwe ka Winter stupid ikalafye.
Wonders never cease!….. So none of these clawns will feature a running mate?…….or why eat twice? The same document should only be gud if it carries homosexual?
That’s y even if I was to vote none of these chaps….HH and Kabimba would get my vote for supporting the grand fimo fimo who are advocating for same sex marriage…. Rubbish!
If HH wants to defeat PF he should refrain from those who are advocating for same sex marriage. Otherwise the PF guys will finish him off.
My advise is that If HH wants to defeat PF he should refrain from associating with those who are advocating for same sex marriage. Otherwise the PF guys will finish him off.
Kamimbya u know everything in the constitution u were hiding that thing for a long time and actually its foolish for u to talk about it bcos it has been delayed bcos of yo idio**
Contents are not to make political parties happy but zambians in general.
Yes one man party like u,nawakwi,mulongoti,etc will complain thats indication that its pipo driven if parties dont complain then it will be party driven constitution.
Even pf members cud be complaining 50+1 its not easy bwana just give in do something else.
LUNGU ULI MWAUME WE LOVE U JUST AS LIKE U LOVE US. PIPO S NEEDS FIRST OTHERS FOLLOW
What has the Urinal Post done to this guys brain? I know it was rotten before, but certainly the Davis Chama urine that some mmembers are feeding this chap on has accelerated his brain damage.
So much urine in his brain that he thinks he can be our president, come on please don’t insult our intelligence!
Use appropriate language please.
Thank winter k . For telling us that you are rubbishy we had no idea who you are new that we are area . Us in uk we are voting for his ex p . Lungu
Some people have no shame. The same person who was telling us that we want development not a new constitution now cares about the kind of constitution we have. These chaps think we don’t remember what they say. I am not a fan of Lungu and his PF but I would pick ECL over Wynter everyday of the week.
Kamibya know that if political parties complain then its pipo driven constitution but if pipo complain and parties dont, then its political parties driven one.
Hence we are very happy parties are complaining meaning u wanted it to suit yo parties instead of pipo. This does not suit any party but needs of pipo. Lungu Walibomba Its A Nice Gift To Zed.
Now To You WK Are U Normal See U Stayed With These Papers Hidden By U Chap Making The Process Delayed &Expensive Today U Say What Pipo Submitted Was Useless Nonses.
Which Type Of Ciga Do U Smoke Dobo? Just Give In No Time For One Man Party Past Is Gone No More Muyokelazation Just Stand As A Councellor May Be
He is such a wimp, I used to sit with him during meeting for the chamber of commerce when he was town clerk. The man is clueless and likes power & control but when you exert pressure on him he becomes emotionally charged like a buffalo trying to save one of its own.
Wynter… Please …spare us the drama… After what you put us through when you were justice minister.. and put the country on tinterhooks! Surely abantu bamo… Nensinyi tabakwata! Ubupuba fye!! Eat your own vomit!
ba wynter muli mbwafye mwali nimwe ba lesa bamu PF and incharge of the constitution making process….yes it may not be a good constitution but surely its a step forward which u failed to produce and instead said the document was lost nowander u cant even sight clauses which are defending lungu and the one party state u claim…..VIVA ECL…VIVA TEAM LUNGU
Abena Winter your whore is waiting for you Chongwe, She said it’s been a while.
Kabiyeni mukunyenga chili ule chenu
Comment: We are well educated this time around, so don’t fool us.
Kabimba must DIE cause he’s the waste Culprit on this planet!
Look who is talking! Winter Shamafi himself. Is this not the fool who said a constitution was not priority to the majority poor Zambians? It is good waking up in the morning knowing very well that Winter won’t be making headlines anywhere. He was a pain in the ass.
Mr. Kabimba, is that the only lie you can come up with! Zambians are now better positioned to know the mouth that is telling lies and the one telling the truth. Winter one time you were minister of Justice, did you do anything constructive to push the agenda forward for the Constitution making or just shelved the document in one of your lockable expensive drawers in your then office? Learn to tell the truth.
Hey, Post NewsPaper electro-opionion poll results: Wynter Kabimba is the most likely winner of August 2016 elections
Hey, Post NewsPaper electro-opinion poll results: Wynter Kabimba is the most likely winner of August 2016 elections
in as much as we try to air our grievances lets ensure that we choose words to use.Mr. kabimba is a senior citizen of this country & has acted as republican president on many occasions,so lets have respect comrades.i agree with wynter when he says the new amended constitution is a sham.Edgar has blackmailed the zambian people on the so called constitution.The zambian people still want a peoples driven constitution and not that rubbish the pf & edgar are boasting about after spending huge sums of taxpayers money.Shame ba PF & Viva Kabimba.
You must be a real Dick, Derrick for not remembering that the same Kabimba failed to enact the people driven constitution when he was Minister of Justice. He was bidding time to become president without the 50% +1 clause as he waited for the demise of comrade Micheal Chilufya Sata. He had inside information of the advanced cancer of the former president. This Winter is extremely dislikeable and should stop shooting from the hip.
I’m glad he has gotten a serious canning by most bloggers on LT.
kabimba this is what you missed.

The thing is, under Sata, this Henchman left us thinking he was intelligent and able to be a Leader. Then he set up his own Party called…..Rainbow? Please. Go away man. You have become a Joke and another of Zambia’s Fake Opposition. Put a pretty dress on and dance in front if cameras and rake in Western supporter money.
Wynter Kabimba, look at the posts above . Not even uPMD wants to be seen to associate with you, yaba!
Look at the faces of your officials around the table – just about disgusted!
Wynter boy, just what are you good at?:
1. The Urinal Post has failed to sell you, try as they have you are just not selleable.
2. Have you seen how ridiculous the Urinal Post has become of late,, with lies and childish distortions. All because of frustration with one failure of life – Wynter Kabimba
3. You are not only unelectable, but totally loathed by everyone too, very soon even some mmembers will hate you.
4. I don’t know about your law practice, but it seems no one wants to hire you, even some mmembers prefer other lawyers to handle their cases.
5. What a waste of human being!
If you are unsuccessful, support the ruling party because this is where opportunities are Zambia’s self-enriching officials need to know they will be judged not just by an imperfect judicial system, but by generation upon future generation of their compatriots
One possible answer to this is that Zambian’s leaders have little sense of history and their own place in it. Of course in order to tackle a culture of impunity, the country’s institutions will have to be strengthened in various ways. But at the same time, perhaps Zambian academics also need to be invited, as a matter of urgency, to write a new History of Modern Zambia – a history that will give the country’s leaders a sense of posterity to which they will one day be answerable
kabimba was not the head of state, how could he enact a new constitution? he was working under instructions from the head of state kwamana!!!
One-party State?’ Well, the socialism Kabimba has been advocating calls for a single-party state if he is serious about implementing socialist policies. Both Kabimba and Lungu are socialists … and true socialism cannot thrive where there are opposition political parties. It is the usual problem of “the pot calling the kettle black.”
IS THAT THE STATE COUNSELS OPINION…….THIS GUY DOESN’T DESERVE THAT POSITION
