UPND Vice President Geoffrey Mwamba has proposed that the venue for the highly anticipated public debate against Chief Government Spokesman Chishimba Kambwili be changed.
Mr Mwamba said the venue should be moved from New Government Complex to either Pamodzi or Lusaka Intercontinental Hotel for security reasons.
He said, “I have received a response from Chishimba Kambwili on the impending debate that he proposed from his Facebook page. I am agreeable to his proposals, however, I would like this to be a discussion on national issues, such as the social economic and political situation in our country.”
“I further wish to inform him that the venue be changed from Government Complex to either Taj Pamodzi or Intercontinental Hotels. This is due to security concerns and to avoid misbehaviour by certain characters who operate from a nearby location. As for the time it should be in the evening,” Mr Mwamba said.
Mr Kambwili earlier on said that he is looking forward to the debate.
“GBM I am waiting for communication from you and your team, I am back in the country now. My phone is on so give me a call and let’s do this. Thursday isn’t very far away we need to put logistics in place since you want a private location. I am ready when you are!!!”
Kammbwili, prepare for insele thats what Mwamba know.
Kambwili is back from Dubai. GBM should also deal with the issue of rigging using ECZ.
You bloodful speak for Zambian, and learn to use your fcing brain iwe kandile.
Two sides: Put them in a proper place, proper audience, proper moderator like Leonard Kantumoya or Dennis Wood (not those ZNBC idyots who can’t pronounce their own names) we might just have the best political debate ever.
Put them in a wrong place with cadres for the audience we may just embarrass the Chitimukulu for the abuse of his language.
insele sheka sheka from someone with five brains….. how can GBM have five brains and be able to think properly?
If GBM wants the debate to be held at a 5 Star Hotel let him pay for the venue.
It’s a waste of money when you can use government facilities at a cheaper cost. What rubbish is this about security..
Yes. GBM teach the him that been a professional failure (PF) member has lead the country to doom
Comment: Y can’t u shut up? We had enough of your insele.
What will this debate bring about other than promoting these two guys’ egos. I won’t listen to their proposed public show of “madness”. By the way Both should use English during debate.Hahahahaha. Good lucky to Zambia
If they are going to talk about how good looking they are, it’s going to be interesting. But Chishimba Kambwili will have zero say on how his govt has performed. PF has destroyed our republic. The list of evil things this govt has done in a short time is longer than a baboon’s arm.
You are fighting against a crocodile, it will drag you to its depths where it seldom loses. The vanquished will be UPND, this I can assure you
Gbm just simply say u want insult based issues. Who doesnt know you?
Its so so sad that my beloved UPND can be dragged to such immature levels ! What debate apart from Insults shall we get from GBM/ Kambwili ? GBM will be the last straw that broke the camel’s back and I will only have only one person to blame. HH
HH unilaterally imposed this GBM on us simply because he was stingy to fork out money but GBM wasnt due to the fact that he wants to secure Defence contracts which saw him resign as Minister of Defence. Fellow UPND and forward-looking people, lets resist this coup-de-etat that has happened to UPND and petition HH to remove GBM from the powers-that-be !
Will GBM debate the economic outlook of Zambia or will he be boasting about how much money he has put in PF and now UPND. Be forwarned, we stand to lose again
Ba GBM and your UPND, do you still believe you have some breath left in you? HH and his personal party UPND are the real enemies of the people. How do you start causing confusion in the country just to justify your existence? Its the very same poor people you purport to represent who you are punishing by smuggling meal meal out of the country and causing artificial shortages. People know all these schemes and please when they acst their ballot on President Lungu on 11 August, please dont start running to Mulungushi to complain to innocent ECZ.
HH is a failure and liar, he only respect the whites who he has promised contracts and contracts at the expense of Zambians and our all weather friends the Chinese People.
Koma ma cadres Che! awe mwe one cant even tell what it means to be a failure.
I can’t wait…..
Take it to an enclosed live studio with a limited selected audience and a panel of interviewers. Any open place will be subject to security concerns. I am sure GBV GBM will be walloped.
This will be a PR department’s worst nightmare letting two selfish loose numpties debate live!!
I agree. PF and UPND will be affected negatively by this debate between two masters of politics of insults
Two morons with the same temperament. One without a neck, the other without a waist. In short, both with over inflated egos to compensate for what’s lacking up there and underneath those belts. Nothing good will come out of this. For the two parties being represented, this is an unwarranted death spiral.
#deathbytwouneducatedmorons
@Jinx funny as you are thats unfair on the part of Kambwili, who is a scholar by far compared to GBM. I don’t think GBM finds your comment unfair at all because he has a robust enough personality to live large with no excuse to prostrate his rear at the educated ‘elite.’
Ba GBM amano yapwa.
What can prevent Hon Kambwili from busing in his supporters from the same ‘near by’ locations?
Nsele Nsele, Even the face its just Nsele Nsele.
Jinx u have made me laugh
Can GBM debate Kambwili? Please lets have this debate live on TV. HE Edgar Lungu let Lubinda go with kambwili and GBM can chose his supporter as well
If GBM wants the debate tO be held at a 5 Star Hotel let him pay for the venue.
It’s a waste of money when you can use government facilities at a cheaper cost. What rubbish is this about security.
Waste of space and time. Once you give them an inch of attention they start milking it for its worth. This debate is mostly comical and will provide citizens with some relief time.
That’s what everyone is waiting for @Patriot. We all know the citizens are waiting to have a good laugh. If Kambwili is reading these comments, it will work in his favour. At least by now he knows not to make a fool of himself when GBM loses his mind (and mouth).
The one who was recording is the one who insulted Zambians.
Fweba bemba tutila uwafumya ifyamubunfisolo ninshi eulandile.
The one who was recording and start distributing the recording was at fault.Who did he want to impress.
They want to make sure that GBM is brought down, but this will not happen.
Lai Lai Nsele mama, Nsele Nsele Nsele lai Lai. Nsele sha maka,
A neutral venue as proposed by Mwamba is the best. Government complex is not neutral and could just be insecure for highly priced GBM. We still need you these crooks can do anything. Remember how they kept you detained for no apparent reason. Mwamba don’t go for a debate that has no subject of debate, no moderators, no conveners, and no official players. Are the two going there in their individual capacities or representing their parties? Have the parties sanctioned this debate? Don’t turn this country into a comedy pa lour. What national issues can Kambwili articulate when he has been on air several times only rattling and waffling. In COMING President step in and stop PLAYING games with the PATHETIC FOOLS.
