UPND is not willing to concede defeat in the coming elections-Kapita

FORMER United Party for National Development (UPND) Vice President Richard Kapita has said the alleged training of militia by his former party is a sign that the opposition party is not willing to concede defeat in the August 11 general elections.

Mr Kapita, who is now Patriotic Front (PF) Central Committee chairperson for tourism, arts and culture, said in an interview yesterday that the alleged actions of the UPND were a desperate ploy in view of an impending defeat in the elections.

The UPND was alleged to be training about 250 youths in Lusaka as militias to destabilise the country after the elections. The 21 suspected UPND cadres apprehended by the police at the weekend were suspected by the law enforcement agency to be part of the said battalion.

Mr Kapita said it was unfortunate for the opposition party to resort to violence while the country was recognised as a global beacon of peace.

“The training of the militia by UPND shows desperation of the highest order after realising that President Edgar Lungu will win the August 11 elections by more than 60 per cent.

“The UPND wants to portray a picture that the elections will be rigged and that is why they have resorted to these desperate measures,” he said.

Mr Kapita appealed to the opposition party’s leadership to restrain its cadres from perpetrating mischief.

“My appeal to the UPND leadership is that Zambians are peace-loving people and we would rather have peace than a president who says there will be no peace unless I am president. Zambians are mature enough and certainly they cannot vote for such a president,” he said.

Meanwhile, Bible Gospel Church in Africa (BIGOCA) overseer Peter Ndhlovu has suggested that anyone spearheading militias in their party structures is a danger to peace and should be imprisoned.

Bishop Ndhlovu said in a separate interview that President Lungu’s allegation that the UPND was training a military force should be taken seriously as it was based on intelligence information.

He said any political party plotting to take the law into its own hands ahead of the elections had realised that it was facing the prospect of defeat.

“The President said it and such a pronouncement should be taken seriously because it is based on an intelligence report. “We cannot have militia people in this country and that (UPND) group should be disbanded immediately and the people behind it must be caged,” Bishop Ndhlovu said.

During the raid of a gymnasium in Villa Elizabetha in Lusaka, police seized assorted offensive weapons and drugs.

Inspector General of Police, Kakoma Kanganja said yesterday that the 21 suspected UPND cadres apprehended at UPND vice-president for administration Geoffrey Mwamba’s premises on Saturday would be prosecuted in the courts of law.

Mr Kanganja said the arrest of the 21 people should serve as an eye-opener that the law enforcement agency would not relent in its quest to maintain law and order.

“All the suspects found wanting will be taken to court and prosecuted in accordance with what the law stipulates. This is an eye-opener that all those wanting to destabilise the country will be dealt with full force because we won’t watch people take for granted the peace that this country has been enjoying,” he said.

    • Mr Kapita has been quiet for a long time, it looks like like there will be a lot of interesting times in the days ahead. On the militia Zambia needs objective people who are consistent in rejecting and have zero tolerance for every type of militia without fear or favor, where has everyone been when people were injured and killed in the past. Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act. Dietrich Bonhoeffer

    • Even with Google Earth, GPS and other geographical locating devices you guys cant find the “Army Base” for this so-called UPDN “Militia”? Interesting!

      I wish all the candidates well in the forthcoming Presidential Election this August. Lets all pray for a United Zambia. Mr Kapita, you are entitled to your speculation and opinions. Just dont burn your bridges, you never know what tomorrow holds.

    • If you are old enough you will realise that this story of training militia is as old as Zambia’s multi partyism don’t forget that even PF was accussed of the same in the past …. this is when the intelligence is too lazy to develop new tactics and keep telling their new masters a tired story.

    • Let him just continue chewing UPND campaign funds that he stole. After all he has no influence except for his one cousin he defected with to PF. We now have the powerful GBM to deliver the powerful northern, luapula and muchinga provinces as we consolidate northwestern provinces to as high as 98%.

    • UPND needs to play its cards very well and completely tame it’s cadres unless they are attacked. Actually they should always carry cameras and phones to record the provocations by PF in order to provide evidence. Where ever UPND meetings are held, cameramen should be in sight recording all provocations from start to end. This is due to the fact that everything Edgar Lungu had relied on has failed. The tribal tug, the privatisation tug, the so called “unprecedented infrastructure development” which does not quench the hunger away from the masses and the rigging strategy have all failed. The last resort is to foment violence and postpone elections citing violence from opposition parties. This is their only hope and from what is going on the country and the increasing pronouncements by…

    • This is their only hope and from what is going on the country and the increasing pronouncements by Edgar Lungu, this is his only last hope. UPND should therefore not be caught in the PF trap.

    • So what are these people being “trained ” to do with GOLF STICKS ???

      PLAY GOLF ??? Is that how they are going to take over Government?

      PF is becoming a bigger and bigger JOKE every day! When are they going to tell us how they plan to pay back the KALOBA they have borrowed? Or are they trying to hide that away from the Zambian people?

    • Kapita ni omfuta chabe. It s the people who want change who won’t accept PF for another term.

      If Lungu thinks the men and women in uniform are behind him ,he is kidding himself because come 13th August 2016 they will act to protect our democracy like they did to remove KK and stop Chiluba’s third term bid.

      Men and women in uniform already know that PF is only enriching their bosses and neglecting them to suffer with the rest of the population. So for Lungu to think that he if he loses elections he will be allowed to command them is total madness. Zambia is not Zimbabwe.

      VIVA UPND the party of choice 2016.

    • Kapita, you are still looking for relevance in PF. Just get a life and run for MP position using that losing ticket of PF.

  1. Geoffrey Mwamba is a former PF member, a party well known for panga wielding militia, what would stop him from importing these tactics into UPND?
    Kapita is a former UPND member trying hard to discredit the party that used to feed him. Its time the youth saw through these opportunistic and selfish politicians. Stop being used in these senseless violent campaigns. Even here on social media you insult and threaten each other with violence, for what? A selfish politician who doesn’t even care for you?

  3. PF SENT 400 people to SUDAN to train as militias, and when HH questioned he was arrested. These are the youths teralising people. Some were fused in the Army others in police. We know.

    • It is Winter Kabimba who made the arrangements to train these PF thugs who are now terrorizing innocent citizens. Zambians need to be careful in electing leaders! Right now corruption in Zambia under PF is at its highest! How can you have leaders at all levels in the PF Government being involved in corruption at such an alarming rate and with impunity! MMD was even better.

    • How do you train people in a country whose security is monitored by Zambia under U.N. . Trully under5 thinking. I can’t argue with a kindy.

  4. We know Hadolf Hitler (HH), a small satamic dictator who doesn’t give a damm about Zambian lives. UPND has lost support from the common Zambian because of a useless Under 5 dictator who supports violence and rewards the violent UPND thugs with heroism. (HH) repent of your evil ways and get circumcized. Your filthy skin has contaminated your cattle mind which is making you spread hatred in the once peaceful Zambia. You idyot you think you own UPND and Southern Province.

    • @Kudos you are just a PF E-militia without substance. Talk about how PF will strengthen the Zambian economy, bring down inflation from 22% to 5%, create jobs for the youth, manage universities better, stop the rampant corruption, etc! Stop the hate speech!

    • hahahahaha! Dunderhead. Thousands on the copperbelt are defecting to UPND from your useless PF and to you this is losing support? What brain occupies that empty skull of yours? Nothing! hahahahaha! I like you Mr. Kudos. You tickle me.

  5. HH in desperation formed this group he has on his books William Tekere Banda his record speaks for itself and the second thing is those “bodyguards” GBM has refused to pay are now spilling all

  6. Kapita you have failed organizing patriotic fulls in North western province, what can tell us you full. Look at our catch is doing to our party (GBM) everyone can see to it that he has brought value to the party. Not you nothing at all, pf can’t even use you because you can’t bring any people. Your attacking on UPND won’t bring any value to you. Please just concentrate on mobilizing your party than wasting your time on petty issues. HH is winning these elections whether you like it or not. People of Zambia have already decided. Viva UPND.

  7. Amazing that Lungu is daily on record threatening not to conced defeat, but it’s HH who gets the boot. Be real

  8. I have a sneaky feeling that GBM might have just imported the Panga and Machete Family into UNPD. The UNPD leadership must watch monitor this Grade 6 drop out very carefully before he destroyed the reputation of the mighty UPND that we have worked so hard to build.

    • GBM is a disgrace to his own family tree. Just go to a few compounds in MAZABUKA for example and hear what these people are saying… ati we will use GBM & Mutati to amass the needed votes from that region and then dump them….

  9. UPND suporters pliz! what is wrong is wrong period. Many are the times both opposition and ruling have condemned lungu and PF but why do you fail to correct HH when he is wrong? some one is grouping military groups and you are defending. God knows the truth and HE will not bless you. you can have money and education but not happy

    • @Assage there is nothing wrong for any political party to have a strong youth team.The youths do a lot of door to door campaign and need to be physically fit.These youths can help in mobilization and protect leaders during times of aggression especially in Africa were the institutions of Governance are weak and the separation of power is not respected by the executive.So UPND is order and it is not training any militia.

  10. Why should UPND concede defeat if PF as a party in power is engaging in Stone Age politics of denying the opposition a chance to campaign freely, blacking them out from the public media, etc?

  11. You will find the ‘offensive’ weapons found at this place in every average garage. Kadansa in his quest to discredit HH wants to burn this country.
    If Sgt. Foday Sankoh could create an army, I don’t think GBM would fail to create a more effective one. After all people who join these armies are disillusioned ones. Kadansa has made young people despondent & ripe for conversion. Anyone who wants an army should just look for CBU & UNZA students.

  12. President Lungu is an incredible leader, he has changed the way politics are played and it’s a known fact that he is totally transforming our great country to great prosperity. A great leader is judged by the manner he handles challenges and NOT bitterness, envy, jealous, violence and pretence.
    HH should try something else Zambians said NO to him long ago.

    • @UFO. Yes, ECL is an incredible leader! It is incredible that we have such a leader who doesn’t know whether he is coming or going! He has failed to manage the economy. Do you really know what direction we are going as a country? The Presidency is surrounded by dubious men. Show me your friends and I will know your character!

  13. If HH is not happy with his kind of money how can he be happy when he becames president? look at the history of SHAKA and other dictators where they happy pipo before they became leaders? What signs do you want if Bweengwa and training military groups are not enuf. PLIZ UPND DO BETTER THAN THIS the world does not end with HH

  14. I thought Stella was the worst IG until this Kanganja arrived. Can’t blame Edith Nawaki for spitting out her frustrations against this fellow.

  15. Turu@ pliz! pliz your future does not lie in HH’s hand. you are young my dear who should be protective to this country. look at libya and Iraq libyans suported the killing of their leadrs are they better now. Where will those military go after elections? what of the 229 not yet arrested and funders? Turu you can lead zambia better than HH and GBM

    • @Assage Zambia is not Libya.KK when he failed he gave up power peacefully to Chiluba.This same arrangement has been happening apart of the two who died in power Mwanawasa and Sata.This should continue Lungu will hand over power to HH.Even HH will hand over power to the next its a relay baton .We all Zambians as such we need to allow each other to rule weather you Luvale ,Tonga or Bemba.This issue of saying I can never handover power is the one which will force the Red Barrette in the Ranks of the Zambian army force Lungu to handle power to HH.We shall not tolerate any maneuvers by Lungu if he loses will treat him like criminal and enemy of the state.

    • He is just a frustrated Tonga boy who is looking forward to seeing that a Tonga becomes president. No special seasons for supporting upnd hh apart from tribal.

  16. This BICOGA bishop very useless pf thugs are even killing people we ve never heard u comment only stupid accusation from your rubbish master then u stand up. Very stupid bishop.

  17. Which militia is UPND building? Nosense. It is Pf who have militias. 3 pangas for 21 people can amount to offensive weapons? Which normal household has no axe, panga or machete? Atase fisushi fi pf. These plots aimed at discrediting HH are already late. Ba Dhlovu you like Pukuta Mwanza, Joshua Banda and Kitwe pastors fellowship are a corrupt clergy who ‘ve sold your birth rights on account of greed and regionalism. Shame upon you.

  18. Lets be honest here, we have seen the pictures and no way those kids are militia, come on people! Why not arrest those we see freely strolling the streets in full military fatigues in the name of party security. One such thug nicknamed ‘commander’ by his peers appears in court today for ear slicing, now thats a more threatening militia.

  19. MWE BANTU THERE IS NO COUNTRY OR PERSON CAN TRAIN WHAT SO CALLED MALITIA WITHIN AND IN AN OPEN DOOR. THIS IS PF PROPAGANDA. YOU MENTIONED 25O AND I TRUST UPND MUST SUE THE PF PRESIDENT TO SHOW EXACTLY WHERE THE 250 PEOPLE AND THE INFORMATION LEAKAGE IS.
    WE ALL ALL UNDERSTAND THAT PF FROM THE FORMATION HAS BEEN A VIOLENT PART AND WHO CAN LISTEN FROM IT?

    AS FOR KAPITA IS A FINISHED POLITICIAN EVEN IN HIS HOME AREA IS REJECTED AND HAS NO FOLLOWERS. WHO CAN LISTEN FROM HIS SPEECHLESS VOICE?

    VIVA UPND VIVA HH VIVA GBM

  20. Let me assure the nation that we Will not be shaken by the cheap shalow thinking of this tribal party called UPND. We are a peaceful nation in the world let them approach this coming election with sober mind they should convince Zambian to vote for them otherwise they will find so difficult to survive as a party

  21. Some Zambians like living on rumors and unfortunately in PF rumor-mongering and outright deceit has reached very high levels. People who are supposed to be reasonable jump in on issues that lack any thread of proof. From my humble science background, I find it unbelievable that people can live like this in this age. It is becoming a fools paradise.

  22. CONCEDING DEFEAT AFTER ALLOWING A LOSER TO STAND, YOU JOKER!
    How many times have we told you sleepy brains that presidential elections are far different from others; You think HH can still stand and win? Shame on you poor lads, you are blank in your brains. The current situation is so different from 1991, 2006, 2008, 2011 and even 2015 during many times HH lost and has the same losing traits within him. How many times have people called for change of the presidential candidate? Just because he has money you think he will get it. I repeat, if HH is not replaced, with the 50+1 formula, UPND will have the most deserted funeral. Personally I wont attend, because I have attended enough of the ELECTION LOSS FUNERALS. It is headache! BB, Kalomo

  23. Some Zambians live on rumors and unfortunately in PF rumor-mongering and outright deceit has reached very high levels. From my humble science background, I find it unbelievable that people who are supposedly sane can jump into supporting a story without any thread of proof. In this modern age, this is indeed living in a f00ls’ paradise.

  24. Pf always says the opposite. . Haven’t heard of UPND trailing Pf during their meetings. Pf has caused misery to many Zambians through its bad leadership. .Pf is slowly melting away..It is pf that should accept defeat in the coming elections. From what is obtaining on the ground, if elections were to be held today, pf would walk away with 15% All pf dreams about is hate speeches and violence and this will contribute to their loss.

  25. This casual talk of party militia should cease to pave way for the relevant security agents to subject all parties to scrutiny to the core. In the same breath, the ECZ must guarantee a 100% free and fair election otherwise anything short of this may lead to sporadic cases of violence and eventually set the whole country alight, something that may not necessary be pre-arranged. This casual reference of militia may be a ploy to silence others when the ECZ handles the elections in the recent Ugandan style. Lets evaluate both sides of the coin.

  26. JEALOUSY DOWN BA PF. UNOMWAKA MULELILA. WHAT SO EVER YOU PLAN PEOPLE HAVE MADE THEIR CHOICE AND YOU CAN NOT CHEAT THEM.
    WHEN A COUPLE IS DIVORCING, ONE WILL JUSTIFY HIM OR HERSELF BUT THE TRUTH REMAIN TRUTH AND IT PAINS. PEOPLE HAVE REALIZED THE MISTAKE OF INKONGOLE TO MAKE PF LEADERSHIP RICH AND THEN A COMMON MAN WHO IS A VOTER REMAIN POORER.
    TWAKANA ING’ANDA YA NKONGOLE YANSALA. WE REFUSE TO BE BEGGARS BECAUSE OF DEBTS.

  27. And these pastors, what’s wrong with them, they are supposed to see the truth. But because they are corrupt,they see . Surely a golf club being a weapon,a machete and you call it assorted weapons. All pastors have now gone into politics,shame

  28. I pray for a United Zambia. I think we have allowed the Politicians to divide this beautiful country on tribal lines.

  29. Yesterday it was one panga and one spear found, today LT is not mentioning numbers. GBM has refuted those allegations in the Zambian eye on line media publication.

    LT why are you not giving the otherside of the story???

  30. The difference between GBM and kapita is that pf misses GBM, we don’t miss kapita, he is just trying to justify is relevance in pf, where have all the generals in the country gone to, they need to help pf understand national security issues, ati the 21 arrest are part of a battalion, do they even understand what a battalion is? A battalion consist of 300 to 800 military personnel, you nicompoops. You have even stopped giving out the description of the” assorted offensive weapons “it’s 3 machetes, a golf club, and weed, a battalion imwe? Would please hand them back the guard needs them, We have heard you confiscated boxing gloves and punching bags as well, let’s hope you didn’t confiscate condoms too because any normal man use them as defensive weapons too against pf= Pathogenic…

  31. Ati ” to destabilise the country after elections ”
    Are there pipo in zambia who belive this?? when the party in power, with all the so called development to show case and all state machinery at their disposal resorts to this pitlatrine kind of thinking just know they are can see they are heading out.

  32. the boys got those farming implements and a golfing tool from the guard to use as demonstration tools during the defensive tactical drills to learn on how to disarm the opponents who are famous for using the aforementioned tools.

  33. let me congratrat u for leaving our party ba kapita u see now hw gbm z demolishing pf copperbelt u will cry together na chakolwa

  34. Upnd don’t waste time blogging,when mazoka died upnd had 46 mps,today 28mps and some already are crossing to pf.in your thinking,are you going up or down?just go and help your boss on who should be his running mate coz I hear he’s having a headache over this issue.

  35. Comment:Mr kapita give us a good reason why u should not b arrested 4 habouring sensetive information?i say this bcz not long ago u were in the inner circle of upnd so u must b privy 2 this milliatia thing.And if a millitia group does exist then u were part and parcel of its formation.
    lts a well known fact that pf has hired jerabos here in copperbelt 2 harras innocent citizens.Are these guys not a millitia or thier is another terminology that u have choosen to call this group?

  36. Intelligence, my foot! Am reminded of two decades ago, when the intelligence marked me as an agent of a former president, when I was as innocent as a clean fly. They only succeeded in destroying my life.

  37. Kapita missed the point. He and other PF members have turned a blind eye to the PF militia causing havoc in the country. This is what the people of Zambia should condemn and ask ECL to DISMANTLE.

  38. Adding to these headwinds are concerns about the global impact of China’s transition to more balanced growth, along with signs of distress in other large emerging markets, including from falling commodity prices.”

    The IMF also noted any future prospects for global growth “could be derailed by market turbulence, the oil price crash and geopolitical conflicts”.

    The agency has called on the G20 group to plan new mechanisms to protect the most vulnerable countries

  39. Zambian,lets wake up and lets start thinking on our own.this so called man if God is a pf cadre.he has no right to issue such a statement.if there are such people being trained ELC has chief of armed forces should have all the details of the activities,locations,names of people being trained.unlike him going to start issuing statements on a rally.this is a fake scheme met to put the country on fire.these are chachacha tactics.

  40. Liars, liars. If fact is Pf who are training militias thru ZNS and paramilitary. We know that. These locusts and maggots are committing certain acts and frame UPND. That’s why I didn’t participate in those fake prayers called by lungu. These pf criminals came to STEAL, KILL AND DESTROY. Wanza wenu.

  41. Ediga lungu at the beginning of his presidency was told by PF Mps that ” boss you can enjoy the fruits of being presido for now while we work on development using the eurobonds, the development alone will vote back into office ” with no future planning, Lungu embarked on a travelling and dancing show only to see global economic and weather conditions conspiring against him. now lungu has realised too late that he might lose hence the deranged and increasingly desperate behaviour of PF.

  42. Peter Ndhlovu is inspired by the God’s Spirit. He is correct in all he has said. I have said that UPND should be disbanded, it’s a bad Project gone wrong under a Lost Soul HH? He has lost all reason and Zambia cannot be lead by someone who can’t see his position is wrong all things of leadership taken in consideration.

    We need to demonstrate stability in our political system to achieve excellence in Economic performance. We can achieve both, but we can’t ignore the danger that UPND, and Barotse issue pose on Zambians. We must act to remove these dangers. Every Patritic Zambian must vote emphatically to ensure the best man to bring and continue this stability wins. HE Lungu is an even handed man and is best fitted to carries our nation forward in that direction. UPND will…

    • …… HE Lungu is an even handed man and is best fitted to carries our nation forward in that direction. UPND will bring destruction, revenge acts against our senior politicians, we certainly do not need these draconian backward motions. Zambia cannot become an HH project, he is a lost man who needs to give much spiritual thought to his state before God and his fellow Man.

    • ati ”..We need to demonstrate stability in our political system to achieve excellence in Economic performance. ”

      we have had stability since 2011, where is the economic excellence ???

  43. The party is going backward ati Zambia forward.You had 46 mps now with 28 ati Zambia forward. you have lost all your petition in parliament and out side ati Zambia forward. Mwaimya ulubuli muparliament mwalusa at Zambia forward. Muceleka mwa mulushisha imwe ni zambia foward.

  44. More than 10 years Haleisa Haleisa. Akafika lisa kabili akafuma kwisa uko apwa 12 years Haleisafye. If Mosses didnt reach Canan how can HH go to state house? Its like every thing is working against HH. Lets try Nkombo after losing in August.

  45. If you are caught whether from DF, PF, UPND, FDD or other political parties in violence no politician will standard and defend you, the law will face you at its greatest and the part you are presenting in violence will remain while you are behind bars. lets love one another and wait for that day when shall cast our votes kwasila.

  46. STRICTLY SPEAKING, THE PF HAS FAILED. BUT I CANNOT IMAGINE THE UPND GETTING INTO POWER. THAT WILL BE THE END OF ZAMBIA. AS CHRISTIANS WE JUST NEED TO PRAY THAT GOD GIVES US ANOTHER LEADER. NOT ECL BUT DEFINITELY NOT HH.

  47. From what I see I can safely say Zambia will never develop because of the following:
    (1) Even if a Tonga person is capable of sorting out economic problems we are currently going through , someone from northern half will say no.
    (2) People from northern half believe that ,the presidency of Zambia is their personal to holder, it does not matter whether one is capable of running the affairs or not.
    (3) The accumulation of debts is the way forward for some people

    Just mark my words wait until 2035 , this country will be broke no money to pay even basic services or salaries.

  48. CONFESSION BY A STAUNCH PF CADRE… Picked from Kachema Kontolola

    “COMPROMISED STRONGHOLDS

    Copperbelt urban is one of PF’s strongest strongholds…. believe it or not, it has been compromised. Those who have ears listen to me, listen hard to avert the impending disaster on the copperbelt. I hate pipo who keep saying things are okay yet what is obtaining on the ground is completely different. The upnd is gaining ground on the copperbelt and that is cause for concern. I wish I could direct my frustrations to one person in particular but I don’t know who! Things are getting bad and I have numbers to prove it.

    Here is an assumption, if HH lost the 2015 bye elections to ECL by less than 2% then he lost because among other pronvices copperbelt didn’t give him a good vote. Going by what I…

  49. am witnessing here, the number of voters who voted for HH has more than doubled because of various unfavourable factors among them job loses in the mines. And you have PF superiors lying ati things are okay? They are not okay!! Things are getting bad we need a strong and progressive campaign team to turn things around before August.

    I hate to mention it but violence is the worst form of campaign strategy. Mobilizing halfwits to chase away opposition leaders from PF strongholds does not convince the voters to vote for you, you either scare away your own potential voters from voting or you turn them against yourselves. Worst still they vote in protest against your violence. It’s that simple, how many times do you want me to tell you to stop this violence? I have suggestions to the powers…

  50. that be:-

    1. Mobilize a strong campaign team with the same speed and zeal you mobilize violent groups that rush to disrupt opposition meetings. Let’s leave the opposition to campaign freely so that when we win they will not start rushing to court to challenge the results. If we continue to disrupt opposition meetings voters will start to think we are hiding something or are scared to lose.

    2. Remove all violent groups from the structures of PF because if memory serves us right, most of these guys who are fomenting violence were the same people who made MMD become unpopular on the copperbelt.

    3. Violence is failure to reason, I can’t believe we have run out ideas to counter what the upnd is doing in our strongholds. All we need is to come up with a team that will use persuasion…

  51. and not violence

    4. The hot one, and this is serious, REMOVE CHAMA from the position of Secretary General, I don’t care if he has millions of kwachas to help fund the campaign but the man has no polical language. He is better suited to be a mere cadre not SG. A good leader must be humble and quick to apologise whenever he wrongs others, not this man. His attitude has actually confirmed zero votes from 4 provinces. Chama has actually failed to come up with a campaign team that will see this great party retain power this August.
    Yelling to pipo ifintu ni Lungu is not enough, we need pipo that will say Ifintu ni Lungu because Lungu has achieved abcd.

    I once said the president must start embarrassing pipo in public those who humiliate him in public. I still say so because I am sure he…

  52. knows who is behind these violent acts by unruly PF cadres. Mark my words, the violence is making my party unpopular. Let’s stop it forthwith.
    Naleka!”

  53. Iwe chisenga I don’t think u are a. Christian ..anyway whether. HH loses or wat u are nt taking away anything from him but u will co.continue with your poverty. Just your name sumz it up. U are a poor tribe nothing to show. Even your own family z very poor. So continue with your evil mind n tribalism
    stop using the name of God in vain

  54. the thing is we do not have a gym were they allow training in guns and pangas with canabis sureeeeeellly and u say its PF planning these acts once again.????? why dont u want to take responsibility for yo evil acts with yo evil people????? wait and see if u think u can come into power by force not in zambia…..we will decide and no one can say no once we decide……ANYHOW NI CHITEMENE SYSTEM IN PLACE

  55. Looking at the blogs in this column, it is easy to tell that UPND is having the last kicks of a dying horse! There is so much bitterness, self denial and vengefulness all for nothing!

  56. UPND CADRES INDEED YOU’RE DIE HARD SUPPORTERS!!look Mazoka left 46 MPs,but after 10 yrs under HH,your tonga party has remained with 28MPs on paper though in reality,upnd only has less than 24 MPs because about 5 UPND MPs or so are working with PF,IS THIS GOING UP OR DOWN?now i have seen that upnd have put all their hope in GBM saying that GBM will add a lot of bemba votes to UPND-shocking!!DO U KNOW HOW MAJORITY BEMBAS LOVE PF?CAN WE ALL SWITCH TO UPND SIMPLY BECAUSE OF GBM?BY THE WAY WHO IS GBM-A DULL G7 DROP OUT TO MAKE US HATE PF?CAN ANY TONGA E.G.GARRY NKOMBO IF HE JOINS PF ADD A LOT OF TONGA VOTES TO PF?BIG NO.THE SAME WILL AMPLYS TO GBM.A LOT OF BEMBAS WONT FOLLOW HIM TO UPND-NEVER!!WAIT FOR 11/08/2016 AND YOU WILL DRINK DOOM AFTER SEEING HOW WE (BEMBAS) SHALL VOTE FOR OUR BELOVED…

  57. UPND should pray for a high voter turnout, its what favours the opposition. low voter turn out will favour PF. the picture recorded in January was largely due to low turn out in perceived PF stronghold. only southern recorded above 50% voter turn out. any slight increase in the PF bedroom if they still have any will spell do on UPND project. may the best team win
