MMD President Nevers Mumba says Mwandi MP MIchael Kaingu has expelled himself by joining the PF.

Speaking in an interview with Hot FM radio Dr. Mumba said Dr. Kaingu has just officially joined the PF because despite being MMD MP he had been PF for a long time adding that the party was strong in the constituency.

“We have very strong structures in Mwandi as MMD, we have already identified a candidate who we feel will do an excellent job. Mr Kaingu has been a member of the PF for a long time now and he has a democratic right to do what he wants to do,” he said.

Dr Mumba said by choosing to go to another political party Dr. Kaingu who is also Higher Education Minister had expelled himself from the former ruling party.

The opposition leader was reacting to Dr. Kaingu’s announcement that he will recontest his seat on the ruling PF ticket in the next general elections.

  1. This generation of adults in Zambia was not brought up properly. They all lack serious moral selflessness. Its sad. They all just have to die through aging first before the country can bounce back. No further comment

    • I think Nevers Mumba is not telling the truth….. MMD has no structures in Mwandi. As a matter of fact, MMD is dead and this seat is going to be UPND.

    • @CP,
      Once upon a time I entertained that same idea. Not anymore. Moral decay is like corruption, it is infectious. By that I mean it is passed on from one generation to the next in our society and will continue to be so until we get somebody to put their steel-toe industrial boot on its throat and say, “You are dead!”

  2. That’s Zambiaan politics. He is just interested in serving his belly and his family. My fellow country men and women, please don’t waste your vote on such maroons. No principles at all,the country cannot move forward with such kind of leaders like Kaingu.

  3. Is this the same Kaingu who tore Sata’s written speech in parliament? He is now a member of PF? It would appear that many senior members of the RB MMD were not committed members. The speed at which they abandoned their party to join PF is amazing — Kaingu, Siliya, Simbao, Munkombwe, Namulambe, etc. These turncoats will continue to behave the same way throughout their political careers. The next government should overlook them. May be it is not possible to do that because defecting is one of the major activities of Zambian politics. So boring for adults to be as unprincipled as toddlers.

  4. These are men and women who like or associate themselves with the COMFOT ZONES. They can do everything to associate with ruling party. Whoever forms next govt. they will follow like vultures, they can smell blood of a dead animal hundred of kms away. Their conduct has been that of betrayal in the likely event that Pf happen to be kicked out they will be the first ones embrace HH and UPND. Edgar and team must be on the look out for political chancers from the comfort zoners.

  5. Michael Kaingu hon, mp for Mwandi constituency did not defect from MM to join P F. He did it with full blessing of the MMD leadership. If one is in doubt check the archives. At the time he accepted the Ministerial position in the Pf Dr Mumba obeyed the move.Therefore, the correct position is that Dr Kaingu was donated to Pf. I for one totally the pronounce ment made by hon Kings to reconnect his position as mp during the august 11 tripartite election on pf ticket.

  6. UPMD torched his property in Choma, what domyounexpect him to do? Kick your asses and thank you for destroying his lodge? Your manners are bad, and your party has a trail of enemies in the past.
