Former Lusaka Province Minister Mulenga Sata has revealed that he does not have a Grade 12 Certificate but that he does possess a Cambridge GSCE O Level certificate obtained from Maru Apula School in Gaborone, Botswana where he attended secondary school.
Mr Sata said that he later went to Waterford Kamlhaba in Mbabane, Swaziland before eventually enrolling in engineering School at the University of California and Los Angeles (UCLA).
“Yes I don’t have a 12 Certificate. I wrote my Form 4, Cambridge GCSE and this has been authenticated to mean O level. I lost the certificate but I have asked for a new one which is on its way from Botswana and it should be arriving tomorrow and then it shall be forwarded to the ECZ for verification.”
Mr Sata said the Grade 12 clause in the amended constitution is not necessary saying the nation needed to have a transition period before such a clause could be adopted.
“There are people with skills without Grade 12. Education is not just about Grade 12, it is composed of so many things. By insisting that senior citizens such as Guy Scott who is over 70 years old should go and look for his Grade 12 certificate, it is very unfortunate.”
The Former Lusaka Mayor also revealed that he feels relieved that he has now left the PF.
“I now feel free at last, it’s like a great burden has been lifted off my shoulders. I know my Dad would have been proud of my decision if he were alive today because one of the greatest life lessons he gave me is that it is important for one to stand up to what you believed in,” he said.
Mr Sata that said his joining the UPND means that he is simply revisiting the original pact which was entered into between the PF and the UPND.
“The UPND and PF share a common past. The original pact was between the two parties. HH would have been Vice President and he would have been the presidential candidate going into this election, unfortunately the pact broke down. UPND is a party we have a past with. It was a natural starting point. I was approached by some people to consider forming another party and I felt adding to the already existing parties would have been retrogressive,” he said.
Mr Sata also dismissed assertions that he is not a factor in Zambian politics and that his defection will not affect the PF’s fortunes.
“If I am not a factor, that is fine. Everybody is entitled to their opinion. If I was not a factor they wouldn’t be issuing statements and again it speaks to the arrogance that has crept into our leadership. What are they saying about the ordinary members? It is this disdain that is ruining the party. It gives me motivation to show them that I am a factor.”
He added, “I have political clout because you are interviewing me. You could have been interviewing a hundred other people. I have built a certain amount of following for myself. Over the last couple of hours since I announced this development, calls have been coming and I have been humbled. My action has resonated with a lot of people. I am branded and I carry the Sata brand. I did not apply to be a Sata and wherever I go I carry this brand and I cannot walk away from that.”
Mr Sata also cited examples of Andrew Banda and Patrick Mwanawasa who have left the parties in which they served and are now associating themselves with other political parties.
He also that he is confident he will survive even after losing his ministerial position.
“Survival is not a problem. I have a small livestock farming venture, I am an aspiring Kachema if you like. Actually one of my cows gave birth today and also a registered engineer, I am a shareholder in Zulu Burrow. So survival is not a problem, Zambia is our country and we know how we can survive but I believe that there are plenty of opportunities in agriculture.”
And Mulenga Sata has charged that the PF Government under President Edgar Lungu has failed the Zambian people.
Mr Sata observed that the Lungu administration has completely veered away from the vision that his late Father Michael had when he founded the PF.
He revealed that currently the Lungu administration is barely managing to keep government running.
Mr Sata who on Tuesday announced his decision to join the UPND said the Lungu government has failed the people and that the economy is currently in a mess.
Mr Sata stated that his late Father could have handled the current economic challenges better if he was still in government.
“My Dad, was a people centric person and throughout his political life he always sided with the people. He had a broad vision for Zambia and it was not just about infrastructure. The infrastructure development was just a part of the early days of the PF,” Mr Sata said.
He added, “After economic circumstances changed following the commodity bust, it was important for the party to change the direction. We needed a sustainable method of funding for the infrastructure drive. You cannot continue buying clothes when you don’t have food. If my Dad was around, he couldn’t have changed the course of direction.”
Mr Sata said President Lungu needed to have made necessary adjustments especially that the country’s revenue projections were no longer valid.
“It was important that we cut spending across all sectors and cut back on all these projects and focus on projects that would quickly stimulate the economy. We have continued as if there is no problem. I know the situation could have been managed better. At this stage, we are barely able to keep government running.”
Mr was speaking Wednesday afternoon when he featured on the inaugural The Contender radio programme on Hot FM which was aired across five other radio stations in Zambia.
That should be good enough, I should reckon … now what’s the deal?
Mulenga is one smart guy among the smart people of the Zambian Enterprise … this is a huge blow no matter what kind of spin anyone in the PF wants to put on it. The kid is a well trained engineer with such a brilliant mind.
ECL’s mistake was he announced too early about a future running mate, that made the alliance with MMD (though I have never been fond of them) hard to actualize. Now, unless he had Dr. Kaseba as that future running mate, he has just about lost the entire MCS clan.
Believe it or not it is hard to win this election without half the MCS Clan behind you. You can lose some and win some but you can afford to lose them all. This is a game changer … I still put my money on ECL, though! May the best team win!!!
In this day of express courier companies, I reckon his O Level certificate from Botswana was couriered on a bicycle! I feel PF has been vindicated. Mulenga Sata did not produce his grade 12 certificate and neither did he produce his O Level certificate. So as a matter of principle, PF said sorry no proof of either one! Good luck in UPND!
You PFs will lose Mpika if you are not careful. Mpika is home village town of Satas and hence there was a landslide. So take it easy with this boy or else yalazanda Mpika which could tilt to UPND if not careful
“Actually one of my cows gave birth today and also a registered engineer, I am a shareholder in Zulu Burrow.”………kikikikikikiki,yaba! The young man is shallow. Why bring a company you have shares in into politics? I guess you’ve greatly contributed to Zulu Burrow getting a lot of contracts from RDA.
The grade 12 clause it seems then is either being misinterpreted or being maligned within PF
It is being accepted that a grade 12 is superior to an undergraduate or postgraduate degree?
Ludicrous
Thanks
Bb2014
The issue is that most of these so called politicians are retards at worst because the Grade 12 clause was a submission of the people to respective constitution review commissions that crisscrossed the country. They debated these clauses for over 5 years in a house led by Guy Scott then willfully voted it for ascension by the President. So what’s the issue here with your own constitutions you didn’t read or understand it?
Well, Mr Sata has been quite for a long time and his first words sound very seasoned, just like his father. To me, he sounds like he really knew his father better than these flip-flops thought. He is wise and smart after all. Sorry PF, he is far much better and seasoned than you anticipated. Like father like son, as the saying goes.
UPND is now a dumping ground for people without grade 12 certificates
Most of the good standing PF members will leave except bene Dora Siliti, Mumbi Phiri and some stranded ones who burnt their bridges to UPND but who would want to leave like Emmanuel Mwamba, Frank Bwalya, Davies Chama, kambwili etc. Off course the ancient dinosaur of kaloba Chikwanda will remain with Edgar as he is one of the biggest beneficiaries of Edgar rule. it is just right that all credible and even the non-credible PF ones move to UPND to help HH form government. The problem we have in Zambia is that of leadership problem at the apex. Fish rots from the head and that is why we have all this rot of corruption, mis-governance, incompetence because we have at the helm someone with zero ability. EL was just rescued fro the big jaws of poverty by Sata who gave him a chance to stand as…
EL was just rescued fro the big jaws of poverty by Sata who gave him a chance to stand as MP and won because most MPs who stood under Sata’s PF in Lusaka and other areas won. EL didn’t win because he had what it takes to represent the people of Chawama but just because of Sata’s endorsement. This is the very reason why the Sata family has ganged up aginst him because they know that without Sata, he would have been drinking chibuku in Chawama now. We need a real leader to take charge otherwise we will all perish.
…quiet for a long time..
The clause is a grade twelve or equivalent. So he has the equivalent Cambridge GCSE from Botswana. What is the difference there with a grade twelve?
First and foremost some of the things Mulenga has said does make sense, and PF should accept that they have lost something and this will impact their numbers. Political parties should desist from lablling people as not being a ‘factor’ once they leave their party, be it Mulenga Sata or Jonas Shakafuswa. They are a factor.
Secondly, this said I don’t see many people following the likes of Mulenga, GBM, Guy, Mwaliteta to UPND. Like football most people have their allegiance to the team and not players. You don’t change your team because your player or coach from your team has joined another team. If anything you look forward to beating the team that your coach or player has joined, it becomes a motivation to beat them.
Thirdly, I foresee trouble in UPND going forward should…
Thirdly, I foresee trouble in UPND going forward should they lose. Most people that have joined the party it’s not out of good principle but because they differed with either PF or MMD. They have allowed emotions to impair their ability to make well-thought out decisions and this will come back to haunt them. For HH and UPND know that you have wilfully invited problems to your party, you’re so short sighted because all you are looking forward to is victory come August 11. Think about the life of the party after elections especially if you lose. This same baggage you have taken on will cause a nightmare for you. They will start fighting for power within UPND. Just look at them, which one of them will accept a lower position in the party? Analyse each one of them critically, they are all…
Analyse each one of them critically, they are all power hungry, consider their past behaviours, dealings and performance. They can talk about ECL having mismanaged the economy today, but are these not the same people who were already opposed to him in 2015 before he became president and managed any economy? When they were in PF and were drawing a salary and participated in decision making they didn’t see the mismanaging by ECL. UPND Don’t be fooled, open your eyes if you ever have any interest in seeing your party survive beyond August 11. G12 is an inter-section set to GBM, Mwaliteta, Mulenga, not sure about Guy. what does that tell you?

I judge Sata more honourable as ;
1. He has proved that he is neither a tribali.st nor vengeful by joining UPND
2. He has shamed all his detractors by revealing his top class foreign education. He is a registered Engineer.
3. He is a wise man for venturing in Kachemaring
4. He is financially independent
5. He understands, values and is exploiting the Sata brand
Grade 9 certificate
@Br Mumba Snr, you really are off your trolley! It seems you idolise things of the past so much that it compromises your bright intellect. It’s disappointing to hear you recommend such a disastrous move as Dr Kaseba for running mate. Whom do you people think Voters are to be manipulated by your sentiments?
@Lusakatimes, this is the most foolish story you have ever written or is it the Headline that is misleading? Mulenga Data, was partly educated in Botswana and for some myopic reasons, you expected Botswana to Award him a Zambian Grade 12? Really? They awarded him what they offer to all their pupils or students. it was going to be bad if he had failed and by the way, why is this becoming an issue? Just because he joined the UPND!?
Mulenga Sata comes across as smart and articulate. His arguments on the mismanagement of the economy is plausible. His ‘Sata brand’ comment is spot on too. He actually sounds cleverer than PF spokespeople.
As for G.12 certificate, I can’t believe this entire country is failing to understand simple English language: ‘minimum Grade 12 Certificate… or equivalent’. Why didn’t he just produce his degree, something higher than G.12?
‘Maru-a-Pula’ (in Lozi or Tswana, it means ‘rain clouds’ or clouds of rain’… Lozi would say ‘Malu’ with an ‘l’).
Mumba SNR why are you reposting the same comment #1.2 on different articles?
Honestly, I feel embarrassed that a country with so many important issues can be debating a high school. Mulenga Sata studied at one of the top colleges in California (UCLA), and you tell him he cant be MP because he has no Zambian high school certificate. What rubbish, and backwardness is this.
Grade 12 or equivalent, I still need guidance for there is no equivalence in subject matter content between G12 syllabus (Zambian) and that of say Cambridge and other external supervised examinations that bestowed the certificate across say countries of the commonwealth who sat for a uniform examination! Choosing to be specific on G12 was meant for exclusion to benefit only those who graduated with the change!
Sata and his father Sr. were thieves. Sata junior has stolen billions through the Chinese contractors. Soon, pretty soon, he will be summoned by President Hakainde to account for his thefts. He will be in the same jail as will be GBM and Lungu
Mulenga Sata then why did you attempt to forge a certificate? Isn’t there some Zambian equivalent for those strange school papers you received. Who goes to a school called “Maru Apula School”. Strange characters. Let’s continue being honest. Next up, grade 6 drop out GBM and the rest. We need to see your Grade 12 certificates. Campaign season opens in a few days. Time to retire these opposition prostitutes and violent Kaponya thugs. Useless
I wouldn’t be surprised to find that (HH) has no Grade 12 certificate. He seems to have a liking for these inexperienced, illiterate, Under5 political prostitutes like GBM, Mwaliteta, Tekere and Mulenga. Is it because Mutinta Hichilema never went up to Grade 12?
“Survival is not a problem” , “I am a shareholder in Zulu Burrow”. It’s amazing how people who never used to show off become boastful upon entering UPND. The same way when GBM entered UPND and started boasting about his money which sponsored Lungu. (HH) has a bad way of making people feel the need to show off. This Kaponya (HH) is a wasted sperm
No Kudos. I think this type of language and your behaviour is immature. LT please ban this person. We can’t be having such uncivilized people on such blogs were we discuss national matters that affect all of us Zambians. Talking the way you do does not Lungu any competent. The man is useless. Period. Everyone knows that and that is why Cobra junior left.
MaruApula is 1 of the best schools in Botswana
Maru-a-Pula (MaP)
@Kudos – I feel sorry for you, really.. Try to research a bit before criticizing.. Maru-a-Pula (est 1972) is one of the best schools in Africa..
few notes to help people like you:
• World-Class Academic Results: Our students’ performance on the Cambridge IGCSE and A-Level examinations positions Maru-a-Pula as one of Africa’s top schools. MaP students broke records in 2015 with over 60% of their exams earning either an A* or an A at A-Level.
• Global Community With Global Reach : In 2016, two thirds of our 750 students are Botswana and over 270 are expatriate, representing 35 different nationalities. Our students enjoy exchanges with more than 20 schools in the USA, UK, China, Japan, Switzerland, France and Australia….
You are a fool…Can you google the school instead of arguing from without Mr Pothead!!!!!!!

Check with Waterford in Swaziland …..you will find this data about Mulenga Sata. Form 4GCSE even today in Zambia, some private schools are doing it and the ECZ is correctly interpreting this to take the candidates to the Universities in Zambia. It says G12 or equivalent. Mulenga informed the nation that ….Now Ba Frank Bwalya na Ba Dora Siliti ebale KONTOLOLA party yenu Daddy……Nayikakana mundala.Nabasenda party yenu mudala!!!! Ba Ejiga balelolesha fye…..!!!!!
The ignorance in PF is shocking. It looks like if a certificate does not say Grade 12 then it is not even equivalent to G12. Clearly Mulenga has been to some of the best schools in the region. Only poverty stricken kaponyas would not have heard of Waterford in Swaziland. Mulenga comes across as sensible and logical. Since he never did silly interviews before, unlike Chimbwili, Mumbwe and Dollar, we should give Mulenga the benefit of doubt. After all he is one of us, bakachema.
@Wise Commentator, some of us disagree with banning Kudos because he provides a good balance to the negative UPND comments. LT is a Digital Media tool and there is an Art to Social Media. Offensive language is offensive. A strong opinion in ‘harshish’ tonnage is acceptable.
This person called KUDOS is surprising me indeed, he posts a comment @2 and starts replying to his own comments @2.1 and @2.2.
Are u done with your contribution?
Who authenticated the certificate if it has not reached Examination council of zambia? I thought ECZ was the only instituition that can authenticate or interpret a qualification to know weather its equivalent to a G 12. And why has it taken so long to request for it from Botswana.
There is always something strange about a 50 year old man saying “my dad.” Why not just say “the old man” or “the big man”
Kudos is EC Lungu.
Sata u have left why u left pf. I cant accept that reason where one joins someone who wished his dady death through and through u say your father would have liked it big lie.
#all those joining upnd could have contributed to his death in one way or the other and didnt love him nowarder he liked lungu and trusted him
But me I dont understand you !diots who claim HH wished Sata dead, when did he wish him dead tu ngwele imwe? Very dull.
But then how do you allow Ba Frank Bwalya and Ba Dora to start controlling the party of the man they insulted on a daily basis??? Remember the story of the Chumbu mushololwa and that this old mad man will not rule this country as well as the middle finger insult in Parliament……surely surely…abena Frank Bwalya ebale KONTOLOLA PF…….mmmmmmmmmm niyi kali!!!!!
@gaylove you and other UPND devli worshipers are on record of wishing MCS Sata death right here on Lsktimes, you being one of the HHs favourite sources for blow jobs and butt-hole penetration are one and the same as your sick minded uncle the Hungry Hyena himself. So dont pretend you UPND/ ZWD sick and blood thirty animals never said those things!
What a waste of space you are you dull dunderhead, bloody hopeless cretin!
2016 ECL nafuti
But why was he not fired by PF under those grounds? they waited until the guy ditched them. Am sure many more lies will be uncovered, fili uko tuya. Some of these guys did not do well at high school at all, today ati “Ba Hon” atase!
HH called your late father chimbwi no plan CNP and you say he would have been happy seeing you joining the tribal party. Luaghable indeed. G12 clause is not Pf. In fact it’s Upnd and mmd who brought it up so that they can block your late father to contest presidential election. $tupid you think it’s pf meanwhile the same people you have joined are the ones who formulated it and Lungu being the seating president only appended to it and you blame him for that.
Mr. Sata to say the least, where you have gone, people don’t like your kind. UPND celebrated when your father died. You will come to your senses someday. All the best.
False witness
No need for educational qualifications pa zed….the culture is just to plunder get rich and move on….no one respects the opinions or advice of the educated
Cage this thug for forgery
MSata whose cow gave birth, should have waited for DHL to bring his testimonial istead of even praising his dad who honestly messed up our economy. Lungu is in damage control. I urge MSata to tone down isukulu lisuma
I judge Sata more honourable as ;
1. He has proved that he is neither a tribali.st nor vengeful by joining UPND
2. He has shamed all his detractors by revealing his top class foreign education. He is a registered Engineer.
3. He is a wise man for venturing in Kachemaring
stoo confusing people when you say ECL has no vision and he has diverted away from mr sata’s vision then it tell me that even him has a vision on how to run this country. president sata started this mess in our economy we are seeing. in fact he should be condenmed the most.if ECL has no vision this country would be in a very bad situation but he has managed to control the mess of your father mr sata. mr mulenga actually its you who has no direction,how can you lose your cambrigde certificate and just sit until things become bitter for you.what a shame
So you cant see that the country is in bad state?
@Limpo! Sheugnight has stated that Lungu has done damage control. When you are thrown in the sewer when somebody rescues you won’t come out clean like you from having a shower. So Lungu has done much and it is wrong to say he has no vision and yet he has a vision contrary to late M.C.S. What is junior trying to say in clear terms?
Comment: yes Your father was great that’s he blocked GBM from giving himself contracts while in Grz which led to his resignation. That’s why You all have defected to upnd, nothing else.
Wether u carry the sata name,that won’t change who u r and qualify u to the caliber of your father.Balekweba ati kabiye kusukulu,ati kumukoshi nakufita,now that has caught up with u.
Am now wondering if my certificate is original coz pipo defectin to upnd en complaining abt the grade 12 certificate then am wonderin how they managed to get jobs in gvt,am just watchin
Mulenga you are such a useless none factor chap in politics, your fathers vision is not your vision why where you not advising Lungu on what ever you thought was not right. Don’t forget that is the naame of yopur Father that entered you in to high offices you held, now that you joined the dark doomed party owned which By a freemansonary HH. You are finished because HH will never never rule.
If HH is Free Mansonry then…
ECL is Free Jemansonry. Same.
Ba Suntwe have you ever seen Lungu taking advice? The man who says he is chosen by God? Think about it
Suntwe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! advise who???????????????????? you people don’t know baEdgar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! na stubbornness. Did you ever hear Mulenga’s voice at statehouse. It was either Kaizer or Amos. Suntwe iwe.
People leave Junior Cobra alone. The fact is Lungu is incompetent and every sane/normal person knows. Everything under him has gone from bad to worse. He does not know what is doing or good governance. Political carders cannot be put in key economic sectors.
Though culture denies us criticising the dead. Sata Sr. was a serious piece of work. He actually caused the chaos we are in today with his off the cuff economic policy pronounciations. He created districts without budget lines, pronounced mining tax policies without analysis from the Ministry of Finance and run a bloated cabinet. The diplomatic service was filled with incompetent relatives from the Grace niece in Brussels to the illiterate grand daughter Musonda Cecilia Yabulendo in Kenya and the list is endless.
Edgar Lungu fearing the same backlash he is getting from the public over Mulengas’ defection mainatined all these costly clowns and he is to deal with them in the new mandate.
Silly Mulenga thinks he should just criticise president Lungu for nothing? Why don’t you Mulenga ask…
Silly Mulenga thinks he should just criticise president Lungu for nothing? Why don’t you Mulenga ask all your funny and failed relatives from diplomatic service and serve this country money? Blood sucking power hungry beings!
Without a grade 12 certificate it will not help Mulenga Sata joining the UPND. So the defection of Junior Cobra from PF to UPND has nothing to do with Grade 12 certificate but has everything to do with leadership failure in the PF govt and PF itself. Mulenga is simply jumping to safety from the PF Burning Ship. ECL and the PF Govt are visionless and clueless and lack skills to manage and turnaround the camatose Zambian economy.Mulenga Sata has a Vote of No Confidence in ECL and his govt. Most people cannot stand another 5 yrs of PF misrule and mismanagement of the Zambian economy. The more the merrier.
Ba PF please wake up. If Edgar Lungu was to defect to UPND. Kambwili and his minions will still say he is not a factor. If Mulenga Sata is not a factor, then PF should stop issuing statements of panic. Sinking titanic indeed.
Maru a Pula is a private secondary school in Gaborone close to Gaborone sun. It’s one of the best private secondary in Botswana. So Chi Kudo cool down. Maru a pula means clouds of rain. Malu a Pula in lozi.
True
In Lozi it means clouds of rain> Maru a pula. Its one of the best schools in Botswana.
What i cant understand is what difference does it make if you join upnd or pf if you do not have a G12 ? You cannot be put up for adoption as MP in either camp.
Secondly, be it Mwaliteta or Sata or Scott, upnd has welcomed them without giving them any position or post. Its not like Sata will be made VP in upnd. And thats the point we are missing. These chaps are jumping over without any secured benefits and that should be of concern to pf. Perhaps they will take 100 pf voters across with them, but each vote lost by pf is adding up.
Lastly Waterford is a top private school and UCLA is an ivy league university just like Harvard. Do u think UCLA qualification is not in excess of a Zambian G12 ? Dont jump the gun, wait for ecz to make its finding over junior Satas qualification
MSata (whose cow gave birth yesterday) has really disappointed me, whilst he was lying to the world (UPND World, that is) that he was forced to join UPND because ECL had lost direction meanwhile it was an issue of Grade 12 ! I really doubt the United Party for Non-Deserving Grade 12 will have space for him coz they too have people that were teargassed by his late Father Sata and literally trampled upon
Why talking about this man when you have already said he is not a factor! Mulenga go to Mpika and explain your position to your kinsmen, it is very important.
Mulenga sata is the greatest loser of the month. He is like a child who sold his father’s company after death. How is he going to defend his father’s legacy in another man’s party? How do you feel relieved in another man’s party where you don’t even have a voice? Are you saying you brothers and sisters will also feel relieved in HH’s house when he also have children? How would HH’s children look at you and your family? Zambians lets show these crooks good morals by voting Lungu
YOU BATARD YOU ARE VERY UNGRATES THE HH YOU HAVE JOINED CELEBRATED YOU FATHER’S ILLNESS AND DEATH HE EVEN PUSHED FOR UNNECCESSARY PRESIDENTIAL BY-ELECTIONS.HH WAS ALYS TEASING YOUR OWN FATHER WHEN HE WAS MOVING WITH A URINE BAG TO DAY YOU HAVE JOINED HH YOUR FATHER BODY IS TUNING IN THE GRAVE YOU WILL NEVR HAVE LUKY IN YOUR LIFE SHAME ON YOU BASTARD.
Sililo ba situwa mwa muzi wa Kangwanda. Sata uba tobezi. Where is Ricky Ililonga? He would have produced a song about the defection of Sata.
so G12 you are so powerful. You able to lift big tummies,short,slim,old,young,rich etc out of the game the likes of gbm,mwaliteta, shi nono,scoty,mrs scoty,many more will appear.
Conclusion who ever joins upnd has no G12
Ulichikopo. What part of “minimum of Grade 12 or equivalent” don’tdon’t you understand?
In whatever way you would take Mulenga sata will still be a loser. Does this gentleman think about his children and grand children? Life is not about money. Does this gentleman know how most people think about his late father? Its like your friends(GBM and SCOTT) telling you to steal your own father’s money. Lets agree that sata saved the image of his family. look at sampa, kaseba and now mulenga when sata was on earth and how they have changed after his death.
Am personally disappointed with ba Mulenga decision. If for sure he was a wise man he would have pondered over so many things before making a move to another camp who would only use him for political mileage. If he really meant well for the wellbeing of our country he would have been in the fore front to advise and reminding ECL in line with his father’s vision before he died. Above all, if I were him, I would’ve just resigned from active politics if for sure my current political party was not doing the right thing and people may still have some respect for me as their genuine representative.
Thirdly, I foresee trouble in UPND going forward should they lose. Most people that have joined the party it’s not out of good principle but because they differed with either PF or MMD. They have allowed emotions to impair their ability to make well-thought out decisions and this will come back to haunt them. For HH and UPND know that you have wilfully invited problems to your party, you’re so short sighted because all you are looking forward to is victory come August 11. Think about the life of the party after elections especially if you lose. This same baggage you have taken on will cause a nightmare for you. They will start fighting for power within UPND. Just look at them, which one of them will accept a lower position in the party? Analyse each one of them critically, they are all…
We can liken Mulenga to Joseph Kabila who killed his father and took over from him, how else can we explain the circumstances where he wanted to take over as PF president when his father was lying in state at Mulungushi conference center! How can he say his father would have been proud of his decision when the pipo he has joined wished his father dead and even celebrated after he died? He has been deceived big time by Scott and Sampa a thing that he will regret for the rest of his life. As for our under 5 politicians UPND, they think they are scoring political points when in fact they are bringing trouble closer to themselves, they have been singing about real change but what real change are these defections bringing? It is just desperation for plot one that is making HH behave the way…
Cont…
way he is but we have warned him that those vultures he is receiving will be very difficult to discurd and eventually they will take over UPND because they are power hungry. These vultures know HH will not win the elections in August 11, so they will demand a convention and I can assure you a non tonga will emerge as president of UPND party! Why do I say so? Delegates from non tonga speaking provinces who are many, will gang up and remove the tribal tag from UPND by voting a non tonga and that will be the end of dominance by tongas in that party and in the end they will be plotting to form another tonga party
As for me I can never insult Mulenga, its his choice but truth is MCS saw through HH and saw him to be imature, ruthless, shallow minded and not capable to running Zambia. It was MCS that reminded us of the role that HH had in the privitisation programme of the mines in the Copperbelt so ba Mulenga please be honest ba daddy wenu wouldn’t have been happy with your decision and that is the plain simple truth. Why didn’t you Mulenga take time to speak with ECL? ECL is not a difficult person to speak to so and you as a son of MCS and a Minister wouldve been granted audience.
@dull comentator so now that you receive a taste of your own vulgar language from Kudos you cry foul..dull commentator you are a cretin!
2016 ECL nafuti
If you went to so many institutions like some of us, you would probably not even know where your grade 12 certificate is. Look at this, nobody has asked for my physical grade 12 certificate or indeed any other certificate in the last two decades because I, myself, I am the certificate. Sounds like boasting but its the truth. On Mulenga Sata, his economic message speaks of foresight. I like him now, not because of the defection but rather because he has shared his insight of what needs to be done to save our people from the shackles of poverty. Good day folks.
And don’t forget the hashtage abena Zed…

I will remain PF and vote for them, people do what works and there is power in forgiveness hence I for give you Mulenga as you failed to take ownership of your role in PF.
People, ba Sata like ba GBM are talking half truths. Grade 12 as a requirement has been in Parliament and papers for months, in fact even before the father died.
When did Sata realize that the certificate was missing from his file? Where is the photo copy. Maru, Waterford and Mpelembe are in the same bracket. Why and when did he go to Waterford? If he did not get anything from Waterford why did he leave Waterford? Was he suspended?
He went to Waterford after leaving MaP…maybe to get his ib diploma…so that he can enter UCLA…
(I did not learn any logic in any school, but I am this good…!)
Silly questions.
I have never taken time to listen to Mulenga Sata talking, but reading what he has said, I am beginning to like him, he is more intelligent than what people make of him. His words are measured and sounds more mature than the assassin Kambwili. I certainly give him kudos.
Equivalent to zambian standard Mulenga doesn’t have hence he voted blindly
Sata is not PF. PF belongs to the people of Zambia, and I’m confident that PF is winning the August tripartite elections. I know the overzealous myopic UPND supporters will cry foul when PF wins in August. May God continue to protect his excellency, the republican president, Mr Edgar Chagwa Lungu.

Do you have an ordinary level certificate? Yes or No.
I can vote for a f00l for as long as he is able to manage the economy but certainly not for visionless Lungu.

PF minions, you are really in pain. Cool down. It’s politics. Don’t hang yourselves yet. It’s not a death sentence. We should find somebody to console and counsel you for the pain you are going through.
Ok, next news please.
I thank you.

‘I will go to state house even if it takes bloodshed and I will teach Bembas a bitter lesson and end their dominance in Zambian politics’ vows HH.
I thank you
Indeed Mulenga you may O levels which was made a requirement in the constitution that’s if you can read! Also I didn’t know that over night you had become spokesman for GUY…at over 70 he should be tending to his grandchildren assuming he has any or simply enjoying the ‘new’ road to his shabby house that he ensured was built once your late father came to power and not ‘looking’ for his certificate he lost in NRhodesia…as for your ‘shareholding’ in ZuluBarrows??? We have gone over the records at PACRA to establish when exactly you became a shareholder then we did an audit of contracts from RDA that was being managed from your Dads bedroom; 2+1=3! All the best oh and next time don’t present a fake certificate…
Branded name?!? Kikikikikiki – rather branded to run the country into the ground! UNDP – you have lost my and my clan’s votes. You look and smell like PF!
Oh heck! Whatever the initials are – UPND(more like Up n’ down).
@dull commentator, take time to follow this latest hash tag you cretin!
August ask your uncle HH to provide you used toilet tissue because he is too stingy to give you new ones to wipe not your a.s.s but your eyes which will be filled with tears after you lose again, for what will be a record breaking 5th time!!!!
#HungryHyena(HH)MustFallForThe5thTime
Hey people, you can insult, sulk and hate President Lungu, but one thing still remains, we are already decided that he is our next Republican President for the next five Years period.
UPND and HH and those house flies who have been attracted to its stinking gabbage will soon know what we are talking about. No one can vote for these failures in the name HH, Scott, GBM, Mulenga Sata, Mmembe, Miles Sampa, Maureen Mwanawasa. unless you dont know them, then invite trouble for yourselves.
Edgar Chagwa Lungu is the man and you all know it.
What people should know is that it is not always right that if the father late Mr. Sata was vigorous and team player in politics and the son should be the same, contrary to that. As far as I know Mulenga Sata was part of the team that assented to the current constitution why didn’t he oppose to the School certificate clause. Let the young man go to the party that he feels accepts anything in this error! Political prostitution in the way it goes in Zambian politics.
President Lungu never be shaken by members in your party that exhibit politics of the stomach! Leave them, but they will be disappointed after 11th August, 2016 and the same people will start coming back with all sorts of stories to please you.
It seems from this latest post briefing that Mulenga Sata has misplaced anger. It is NOT President Lungu who he should be blaming for the economic decisions taken by his Relative Hon Chikwanda. We all have gnashed our teeth at his failure to listen. It is the Sata family clan that lead to this overspending. President Lungu correctly maligned them and relegated most of them into dark corners.
@Br Mumba Snr, you really are off your trolley! It seems you idolise things of the past so much that it compromises your bright intellect. It’s disappointing to hear you recommend such a disastrous move as Dr Kaseba for running mate. Whom do you people think Voters are to be manipulated by your sentiments?
How can Dr Kaseba be a running mate over the dedicated Female MP’s that have staunchly worked in PF over the last year. They have contributed more to the cause than the decorative Dr Kaseba. It’s insulting to the electorate to think one family in Zambia can hold Democratic
Power in their hands.
Why should Mulenga Sata’s certificate be couriered to him from Botswana now, when did he leave Botswana, is it a genuine document, or is he telling us that he has just graduated. I thought we get these documents when we graduate. UPND calls PF kaponyas, illiterates, and all sorts of derogatory names, it looks like they are now embracing the same people they called names, what has changed. They have shown us that they can do anything to get into power.
I bet you did not read what he said, let me help you, he said he lost his certificate and he is now waiting for a copy from his former school.
This UPND is now a dumping ground for pipo without grade 12 certificates.It is now a party of failures and i have stopped supporting them
Mulenga Sata is not PF and is not even a public factor, so stop hecking yourselves.
Agony is having ministers without academic qualification.
An equivalent to Grade 12 is Form 5. For him to have only a Form 4 end of year or term two results transcript it means he dropped out of school. Shame!!!!!!
Some countries have form 4 as equivalent of our form 5 while others have form 6.
Mulenga does not even hold an IGCSE certificate. Does it not strike you with bewilderment when you hear that all these people lost their certificates? Mine is intact and I have both the hard copy and soft copy. Sleazy politicians. No wonder you have deprived Zambians of development.
QUOTE “Mr Sata said the Grade 12 clause in the amended constitution is not necessary saying the nation needed to have a transition period before such a clause could be adopted.”
If you have used thinking process and you are a critical thinker then the above statement will explain alot of things you wont even need to read his whole statement.
not naka History, Geography, Physics, Chemistry, Maths, English, R.E and Nyanja nakacita abantu ifilonda ask GBM, Mwaliteta .
We remain wondering whether really he was your biological father.we saw lungu treating you like his on baby something your dady never did,you dont appreciate. Pf was gone after the death of great sata but wina,mother of the party had to snatch it from scoty s jaws,rb gave up to support pf

MULENGA SATA DOES SATISFY THE CONSTITUTION TO BE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE IN ZAMBIA …
ZWD used to be useful(should some real corruption in grz) but over the past 2 years it has become rubbish its like the daily mail …….all propaganda machines
Comment:if Mulenga ,mr Scot and others are not factor in PF, then who is the might factor?the answer is mumbi phiri or dollar silya(bottom power),please don’t welcome silya in UPND
The way I see it, is the way it is, actually.
Who are you blaming for the G12 clause in the constitution? MPs had a chance to debate this issue in parley before it reached Changwa for signing. Sorry but G12 clause is now constitutional.
People have no issues with your joining UPND, but stop crying kaili. Shhh shhh shhh! you got what you wanted for crying out loud Mule. Just chill, no one is coming for ya! At least we know why you left and sorry your constitution is saying G12 certificate, unless it adds, or equivalent. Stop crying at least yaba uluse.
We know your daddy taught you a lot and no one will take out from you. Just move on; but in politics, we have scalds and ruthless attacks, I hope you won’t always be a daddy’s boy. Grow up now!
On my part I am satisfied that the man is very educated. In other countries they dont have grade 12 but have an equivalent. He got an equivalent while in Botswana. Problem is these parliamentarians who sign things without reading. He is eligible for any position in government.
UCLA is a proper university and getting into engineering is no joke you need to do SATs, A levels or a proper Grade 12 program with good results ……its not like those fly by night universities giving these honorary doctorates
But I know Mpika people. They won’t vote for UPND or even PF. They just won’t turn up. So clever political parties should now go there and campaign
