Matero Member of Parliament Miles Sampa wish to have his political party registered has again hit a setback.

This time around, the Registrar of Societies has rejected Mr Sampa’s application to change the name of his party from the deregistered Democratic Front to the United Democratic Front.

Chief Registrar of Societies Thandiwe Mhende announced in an interview that Mr Sampa’s application was rejected in accordance with the Section 9 of the Societies Act.

“Yes I can confirm that my office did receive an application to register the United Democratic Front but we later on realised that another political party under the name United Democratic Front was in the process of registration which meant that we would have two parties using the same acronym which is against the provisions of Section 9 of the Societies Act,” Ms Mhende explained.

Ms. Mhende also revealed that Mr Sampa has now applied under a new name the People’s Democratic Front (PDF).

    • UMWAICE ENA UYU NOMBA NI COPY AND PASTE OTHER PEOPLES’ PART’S NAMES. CAN’T HE COME UP WITH SOMETHING ORIGINAL FROM HIS BRAIN-STORMING AND NOT OTHERS’. ZAMBIANS LIKE COPYING THAT’S WHY MILES SAMPA IS FINDING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO COME UP WITH AN ORIGINAL NAME FOR HIS KANTEMBA PARTY.

    • PDF too is already taken; as in Probability Distribution Function or even the famous Portable Document Format!

      Please, try again.

    • I belonged to that party PDF in 2001.
      What happened to it?
      PDF file… Maybe the software company will claim something too.

  1. Kikikiki but aya ndiye malabishi yapa zed. Masobela yeka yeka. I willl be surprised to hear this man has supporters. From PF to DF to Unpd to UDF and now to PDF within one month hahaha Hekupena Huku.

  2. What are u scared of ba PF?U said he is not a factor nomba lelo caba shani ukumucinga MS?
    Let him form his party, its his constitutional right.
    Naimwe ba registrar, u r a letdown.Dont allow yourselves to be used by politicians (PF). They may not be there to protect you by tomorow coz, clearly, u r abusing your office. Ala politician temunobe. U r a civil servant paid by our taxes so pls be professional in the discharge of your duties.

    • Indeed Mrs. Mhende, nobody know tomorrow, Sampa might just be your future boss. The way you are treating him, don’t you think you are being unfair to him. Remember he is also a citizen. Tomorrow it will be you being treated like that by these same politicians. Timely warning and friendly warning warning mama.

    • Yes, he wants FRONT at the END!

      The man is an iddi.it! He cannot even register a party and he expects Zambians to trust him to run the WHOLE COUNTRY??

      What a clown!

      He should try BACK instead of front. Or maybe BACKSIDE. Or better still ARSEHOLE!

      That would be the most appropriate!

  3. Ok Miles you can even call it PFP Patriotic Front Party. This is my last advice to you. Kikikikikikikiii

  4. So when one goes to the registra and tell them the Party I want to register will be called UNIP…dont they check in there database before the take your money? This clear frustration..

  5. This f00lishness why didnt they tell him there and then when he presented his papers? Why should it take so long just checking the data base ?

  6. Sampa His Thinkng Capacity Is Very Low.Guys Don’t Blame Registrar Of Society,Doesn’t He Knw That Dpf Is For Others.However Things Are, they Just Wastng Time, Pf ‘ll Rule Beyond 2026. vote pf 11th Augast.

  7. Nichola you are the biggest fool on this blog , do you even know how companies or parties are registered.
    you provide three options and depending on the finding they will tell you which ones are existing.When they did they decide to broadcast this rubbish. this is the work of scared drunkards,anyways it all starts like this he will one day make it.

  8. Just wait for election.all this is nothing. Partys ,alliance,sampa,hh.lungu.all we want is free and fair election.

  9. Miles should write down atleast 15 names in advance so that when they refuse, he immediately shows the next name. Pa last ba zanvela soni beka and give him. I don’t know why they are treating him like this. They think they are stopping him when they are making him popular.
