Share

Patriotic Front(PF) Bahati constituency chairlady Alice Chipulu has threatened to eliminate the life of Tuta radio staffer if she continues interviewing the village headmen on developmental projects going on in bahati constituency.

The chairlady confronted the reporter Hellen Chisha in Zambia compound after the interview she had with village headman Chidakwa in chief Chimese area.

In the interview, the village headman bemoaned the poor road network and lack of proper leadership in the district.

The chairlady, popularly known as Bana Kaluba, said that Tuta radio station has became so controversial in news coverage and the interviews.

She said Tuta radio has got no right to interview the Headman instead of interviewing the area Member of Parliament Hon Harry Kalaba.

She said that as PF members in Bahati constituency, the party has put up some strong measure to deal with all Tuta radio news reporters before the end of this year.

Meanwhile Tuta radio station manager Jubilee Malambo has strongly expressed disappointment over the continued harassment of Tuta radio employees.

Mr Malambo has warned the PF cadres to stay away from the attacking the station stating it is a bad conduct from the ruling party.

He disclosed that this is the third time PF cadres are harassing the radio station in different occasions in Mansa.

Mr Malambo has stated that as a station we will not sit idle on this issue and we promise to fight it tooth and nail, adding that if anything happens to the members of staff when executing their duties, the chairlady will be answerable and face the consequences.

The matter has since been reported to Mansa Central Police Station.

  1. And we have people like Senior whatshisface and that everlasting !d.iot Kudos and the rest of the PF bums still singing praises for a clearly oppressive party and government. Smh.

  2. People collect names of these genocide activists and keep supporting evidence for commencement of prosecution on 12 August. This culture of violence has to be nipped in the bud by having peple to answer/pay for their misdeeds in their individual capacities!

    • You are an *****………………check your facts before coming to parade your ignorance here. we have mutales’ kangwas, Chandas etc in NWP. what are you talking about. even that talkative catholic bishop in solwezi is from were?

  4. Bana Kaluba’s might not be so much of an over reaction when viewed against a background of the high levels of amature journalism doing the rounds due to proliferation of community radio stations. in some countries these have been sources of conflict it’s very important that beginner scribes are adequately drilled in basic journalism practices of handling divergent views to avoid trouble

  5. The name has said it all Malambo. These pipo be it in instituitions have become a problem always want to show that the govt is not working. Go to southern and start criticizng their god and see if you will come alive. if they can just complain playing Bemba songs. mayo icintu cintu umwene Mutunguleni uyu mutungwi

    • You will consume youself with tribalism. You have the name Malambo in Northern parts of Zambia just like you have the name Ng’andu is southern Zambia. You have Kalinda in North East and South. We ave a common heritage!! Pronunciations may vary. STOP TRIBALISM! Shaa!

  6. CHASE THAT MALAMBO WITHOUT WORSTING TIME JUST SOME FEW WEEKS A BEMBA LADY WAS UNDRESSED FOR PUTTING ON A PF CHITENGE IN SP.

  7. uyo mumbwe mutwalwe ku ba tonga bamwana mayo kanshi uyo chiimbwi kumocha fye kubutonga fye naka radio station kukesala

  8. This is just hysterical. A headman called Chidakwa!?? Please.

    All the radio journalist was being told is to use precedence and acquire information from the right source, not stir up things.

  9. It s true going by the name of the station manager, am not surprised the happenings at the station, he is sponsured from some region, we all know the region. aba bantu ba shupa all they want is the Kachema to go state house, takaitambe aleichusha fye akapitilila nakabilu imbushi stupid *****.
