MMD President Dr. Nevers Mumba says President Edgar Lungu is elusive on the formation of an alliance between the MMD and PF.

Dr. Mumba says despite reaching out to President Lungu on the matter, the Head of State has not yet responded.

He says as things stand, there is no working relationship with the ruling PF.

Dr. Mumba has also noted communication breakdown with the MMD grassroots pertaining to the formation of an alliance with the ruling PF has also resulted in some MMD members endorsing the candidature of President Lungu.

And Dr. Mumba has advised MMD members to ignore reports that the party will be going to the convention next month.

He says the party’s extra ordinary convention will be held in 2017.

Dr. Mumba said this in Lundazi District when he addressed MMD members who he urged to ignore MMD Members of Parliament who recently endorsed the candidature of President Lungu in Chipata.

Speaking at the same event, MMD Lundazi District Chairman Godfrey Phiri says MMD Members of Parliament deceived them by telling them that the MMD is working with the PF.

He says this is why they endorsed the candidature of President Lungu at Mpezeni Park in Chipata recently.

  1. Lungu is not elusive Sir, you have nothing to offer him. All you MPs are already with UPND or PF

    • A PF-MMD alliance to continue looting under PF management? Are you serious Nevers? Are you are former pastor really? No wonder EL is elusive; for once he is listening to the holy spirit ahead of you a so called man of God. You want to side with the terrorists of hunger or the poor masses?

    • In politics, timing is everything. Lungu is a savvy politician. Remember how he dribbled Guy Scot to get the nomination?! If he wants to enter into an alliance, he wants it to count. HH already paraded his goons in Guy Scot, Miles Sampa and GBM and as we speak, people have already forgotten about them. So pastor Mumba, bola panshi!

    • Lazy Bum Edgar is not elusive…its you who is f**lish you can not jump into a lions den and expect to come out alive!

    • Ba pastor balapena nga baleka ubupatili. Now that I am more educated than you, come for free consultancy on these Global matters.

    • Believe it or not, with or without a vision, however, Edgar Lungu is a master dribbler. Felix Mutati down, Nevers Mumba down, Edith Nawakwi down, all after dangling the veep carrot and their reputation is tainted. He even extended his schemes to IMF/ WB in Washington lest UPND jumps on Kapwepwe. Of late he was eyeing GBM by instructing Kaisa Sulu to tell GBM that EL wants to work with him.

    • No brother Mumba, brother Lungu is not being elusive but strategic. Remember he has reliable intelligence dossiers that you have no following or political constituency to add momentum to his stamp. Politics is not all about noise making and power of association, but about how much pull one elicites on issues. You are standing in an empty hall as MMD base has long moved on to align with ECL they consider a better inclusive alternative statesman. Even my President RB will soon add his solidarity to the ECL stamp for the common good of United Mother Zambia. It’s a constitutional right. You mishandled the issue of RB, and the 15K votes you got has left you a lifetime scar. But God is still calling on you for the pulpit where you got my tithe guaranteed.

    • Can you imagine, Mumba can`t realize that. And Lungu is very aware that all Mumba wants is a source of livelihood, even a deputy minister position would do.

    • Kekekekekekeke. Mumba reminds me of a tick on a hide of dead carcass. Even then it walks away while the carcass is still fresh.

    • Any satanic demon and stronghold that militates against HH, die by fire in the name of Jesus.
      You evil caldrons set in the ordinances of the second heaven plotting and speaking evil incantations against HH, fall down die in Jesus Name.

      From now on let no one cause trouble for HH, for he bear on his body the brand-marks of Jesus. Galatians 6:17. Greater is God who is in HH than the devil that is in the world. Jesus Christ has obtained an eternal deliverance, salvation and victory for HH.

      I speak the oracles of God for my tongue is as a pen of a ready writer to execute judgment obtained by the resurrection of Jesus Christ!

    • Nervous Mumba’s problem is that he overreacted when he got a text message from Lungu. An SMS does not make an MOU. Lungu was testing the waters and now he knows MMD has no leverage. Still
      #ChagwaMustFall

  2. I agree with people who want a convention. Pastor, please, just campaign and stop looking for a quick fix all the time. Why not work with other opposition parties? Actually, why are you even in opposition if your aim is to sell MMD to PF? My integrity doesnt permit me to support such people..

  3. You can not abandon the work of God for political expediency and expect to succeed. Pastor pliz come back to your senses. This political thing is just eroding your humanity and turning you into some unrecognised species.

    • BROTHER MUMBA, IN ALL THIS CONFUSION ARE YOU SEEKING THE FACE OF GOD. IF THE ANSWER IS YES. PLEASE TELL US WHAT YOU THINK GOD IS SAYING TO YOU. BECAUSE IT IS TOO MUCH NOW.

  4. I strongly feel there is something wrong with the Mumba’s of this world. Cosmo Mumba and Nevers Mumba are political jokers and should never be taken serious. They represent the characters of Bikilloni and Diffickolt in the political arena. If Nervers had any brains remaining in him he would have known by this time that Chagwa is not interested in his MMD which is nothing but just a name. Had it been HH’s UPND asking PF for an alliance, within an hour Chagwa would respond favorably and will be the head line on ZNBC, Times of Zambia and the Daily mail, now that it’s Nevers’ MMD no response will come through in other words, balimisula. You’re neither here nor there in today’s politics ba tata ba Mumba

  5. ECL is “elusive” because he has realised you have nothing to bring to the table… he already has some of your MPs! Lol

    • Nevers Mumba has never brought anything good to anyone’s table, his interest is to take things from the very table. Read Elias Munshya’s article on Nevers Mumba, he ditched his first fiance because she had nothing on the table while his current wife had the table full of precious items, costly articles, prized possessions, personal effects, treasures. H e is that bad.

  6. He is elusive becose you have nothing to offer all MPs has run away and join other political parties . you have remained alone.join upnd kwasila

  7. this is the most useless pastor we have see. first what right thing has pf done to warrant admiration? you just want a quick affiliation for a job, your support for pf is not based on morality but pure greed. may the devil proceed in front of all your actions

    • JOE BOWA, PF AS DONE A LOT WHICH YOUR UPND WILL NEVER RULE ZAMBIA WITH HH AS IT LEADER THE MAN IS A WRONG CHAP.

  8. AWA SURE!!! THIS FAKE PASTOR AGAIN. EVERYONE KNOWS MUMBA IS LOOKING FOR JOB FOR HIMSELF AND NOT THE INTEREST OF MMD. WHY IS HE IN A RUSH TO GET INTO THIS ALLIANCE?? AND FOR WHAT? LOOK AT WHAT THE PROFESSIONAL FAILURES (PF) HAVE DONE TO THE COUNTRY. EVEN TEARGAS YOU?? ON TOP THAT YOU THEY WANT TO RIG AND YOU WARNED OF USING THE DUBAI COMPANY. MUMBA WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON?? ONE DAY YOU ARE AGAINST PF’S IDEAS , THE NEXT DAY YOU ARE WITH THEM?? NO WONDER LEVY FIRED YOU BECAUSE YOU CANNOT BE TRUSTED AND EVERYTHING YOU ARE GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW AS EVERYONE LEAVE YOU IS BECAUSE EVEN GOD THE ALMIGHTY IS NOT HAPPY WITH A MAN OF GOD WHO SIDES WITH PEOPLE THAT HAVE BROUGHT MISERY ON HIS PEOPLE. SHAME ON YOU MUMBA AND MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON YOU

  9. Really why does Mumba want an alliance with PF? it means he is happy with what PF are doing and what they have achieved so far so why not just disband or leave MMD to those that don’t believe in the policies of PF?
    I really thought people were hash on this guy but wow!…..He has no direction indeed. Where is the integrity pastor Mumba? Where is the godliness? where has the sanity gone all the sadden? Supporting PF really?

    How about the suffering masses? abandoned? for what ..money?
    Leave politics sir. If this guy goes to seek support from UPND he should be given general membership status until he repents and starts to think about the poor people and not himself.

  10. ‘Dr Mumba’, another honorary PhD? Mr Mumba please eating tithe peacefully was better than this mediocrity you have taken to MMD. Real MMD members fled the party long time ago (eg Dora, RB, eastern MPs, Western, Central and Northwestern Mps, Mutati among others) and you are there clinging to power without any support. Look, leave MMD and join PF as a mere member PERIOD!!

  11. Nothing left of MMD Dr Mumba and the evidence is that even its leader is a riffraff, nothing to talk home about.

  12. ECL has gotten u frm behind Ba Nevers.In soccer its called ‘attacking frm behind’.The ‘elusive’ man has already eaten your ‘goods’ ‘frm behind’ while u keep waiting to ‘have him’ take u on ‘frm the front’.Wake up baba.U r ‘used’ and ‘dusted’ like ‘better tv’ picked frm the street.He has all the MPs and party structures u cld hav delivered him so wat do u think he needs u for?Running Mate?Its too late baba.Afunika wld say, ‘balilya nokuya baliya’..sad indeed u hav bn donchi kubebad..

  13. So the so called ‘Dr’, aka Pastor Mumba didn’t see that Lungu was just using him to destabilise whatever was left of the MMD so he could get all the votes that would otherwise would have gone to the MMD? After achieving his objective, Lungu has tossed Nevers Mumba aside… Mumba on the other hand sold his ‘soul’ for a quick bag of ‘silver’ just like he did when he left his church folks in the cold to form an political party; just like he did when he sold this same political party to the then highest bidder, the MMD; just like he has done just now by selling the MMD to the bidder Lungu and PF. Does this man Mumba really stand for anything? In other countries this man wouldn’t be in politics anymore… not in Zambia (everything is normal here). The folks from the North really have…

  14. Who would not be, he like all of us has no idea who is in charge. People suspending people and those suspended suspending those who suspended them….

  15. Ministry of works and supply should remove their inspector of gvt vehicles called Levy Wangwamba in Southern province.He has hidden alot of govt vehicles which he has started selling even before the BOS is done.If you do not sort him out ,we shall do it on your behalf as Tonga bulls.

    The ACC is also sleeping

  16. Nevers sounds like he is at his wit’s end. He seems to have used all the tricks in the bag, and that before election campaigns commence! This is really uncharted territory for him, unlike in the church where he was doing so well. But for the love of money, his reputation has been irreparably damaged. Please go back to the pulpit ba pastor!

  17. People should never use God as a lame excuse. Let Pastor Mumba excise his right as a Zambian and also as a thinking human being to participate in politics and or the church as he sees right. There is absolutely nothing spiritual about staying away from politics. I personally believe in God but I think Christianity as practiced by most established churches I know is dead. The most godly thing about being a christian is participating and contributing to the welfare of people in need everywhere. Go into the world has never and should never mean going to remote villages and teach people to become slaves to another group and forget about their own emancipation, self esteem and self actualization until they die. The good news must be to tell people everywhere that the chasm between them and…

  18. The man is still in denial. Free advice, just go to a convention and elect new leaders, that is the only way to restore confidence. Why are you afraid to ask members for a fresh mandate if you are still popular.

  19. its like a girl stocking a guy for a relationship and the guy is being elusive, this means that there is something wrong with the girl.

  20. So Nevers Mumba cannot see that he has remained alone or with Howard Kunda in mmd?timing in politics is very vital.all the noise which upnd made when 10 bantustan mmd mps joined upnd ,miles sampa,guy scott,mwaliteta endorsed hh is gone and forgotten.if all these people made their moves to upnd after parliament is dissolved and during campain period,it could have made a difference.but they rushed!!WHEN RB AND FELIX MUTATI (WHO IS FOUND AT PF EVENTS OF LATE ) AND HIS FELLOW MMD MPS WILL JOIN PF IN MAY,2016,THE IMPACT WILL BE FELT BY THE OPPOSITION!!Nevers Mumba has no impact politically as all his senior mmd members are either with PF or UPND.if anything PF has benefited a lot from mmd because a lot of mmd members have joined PF!!so forget about PF ba Mumba and maybe just join upnd!!

  21. Mumba was merely advising his members not to wait for MMD/PF alliance because it is not there. But the interpretation is something else!

  22. Pastor Nevers Mumba, Edgar made it clear openly that he wants to work with a united MMD. He encouraged you guys to sort out your own house before you Could discuss an alliance. Edgar wants value addition baba, as he is not a desperado. But don’t you worry so much Pastor, there is a party that I can recommend that collects used politicians and garbage. They normally parade these at Chainama Hotel in Lusaka, yes I said Chainama………kikikikikiki. They will gladly take you in. The party is led by Commentator and next parade is as soon as you are ready.

  23. By the way, the truth has dawned on Elisha Matambo UPND chairperson for Copperbelt that miners including retrenched ones are not a playground for UPND as he originally thought and misled Commentator. That is why you have seen that he has been ranting about rigging in the last few weeks, just to mask the embarrassment. He has stopped talking about the PF Copperbelt power base shifting to UPND. Just wait for them to start pointing fingers at each other for failure to ” organize” the party.

    • UPND have no cridible candidates to field on the copperbelt, they have now resorted to recycled and failed politicians like Victor Koni whom they have picked for Ndola central because he is related to Maureen Mwanawasa. They were bragging that copperbelt is now their power base but they have found it rough and are realy struggling.
