President Edgar Lungu has said that he will not respond to all those tabloids and individuals insulting him. Responding Copperbelt minister Mwenya Musenge who had urged the President to deal with some media houses insulting him, the president said that all those insulting him are bitter because the people of ZAMBIA elected him as President.
The President told scores of people who had gathered to welcome him at Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe international airport this morning that the battle at hand is not for him but God.
Mr Musenge told the president that it was unZambian for the Media and people to print hate speech and insults on the President. President Lungu said that they are so many Countries that are still struggling to recover from pain and anguish as a result of hate speech, urging all party members and the nation at large to remain prayerful and peaceful even when provoked beyond measure.
President Lungu further added that he was once legal counsel for a named tabloid but he is not not bothered by their hate speech because God will deal with them.
The president appealed to Copperbelt residents to remain loyal to the ruling PF and deliver the much needed development.
PF copperbelt Chairman Steven Kainga said the PF is ready for the August 11 polls and will get a resounding victory.
The President is on the Copperbelt to officiate at the Baptist Church conference on Sunday afternoon and later watch a football match in Kitwe between Nkana and power dynamos football clubs. The President’s plane touched down at 11:20hrs.
Meanwhile, President Lungu is among hundreds of Baptist Union of Zambia Pastors and elders who have gathered for the leader’s conference at Fiwale mission in Masaiti.
And former Masaiti Member of Parliament Michael Katambo has urged residents to vote for President Lungu in the August 11 polls.
Mr Katambo says President Lungu and the PF Government have done a lot for people of Masaiti to deserve another mandate.
He said the PF have built schools, roads, schools and other infrastructure to better the lives of people in the area.
Mr Katambo was speaking at the Masaiti Fiwale mission Baptist union of Zambia conference for pastors and leaders conference.
He said there’s need for residents in the area to give President Lungu a resounding vote because he is a humble leader with the interests of Zambians at heart.
And in his prayer Reverend Adamson Shamfuti asked God to prevail over the Country’s polls.
Reverend Shamfuti said Zambians must remain peaceful to secure the country’s sovereignty and national development.
The president is accompanied by PF deputy secretary general Mumbi Phiri, his assistant for press Amos Chanda and several other government officials.
Laughing stock he has become.
He inspires no one
Competence is not education Mr Lungu, how you are the President i will never know.
The disturbing thing thought is, as bad as he is, he is better than HH
Thanks
Bb2014
Because you look at the outward and not at the inside of a person.
“…that the battle at hand is not for him but God”.
Please leave God out of this. You were first to condemn Vernon Mwaanga when he issued negative statements about your dictator-friend Yoweri Museveni. Now you have to deal with the sweet and kind people of Uganda for mocking them over a stolen vote. Don’t think Zambians will allow that. August 11 kuya bebele, humble or not. People want competence not humble. WTF!!
I am voting for ECL.
Iwe mushota how do you know EL is better than HH, I am sure as a woman you know that you can only know the size of a man’s pipe/snake once you have slept with him. Now that you know that your choice winter is going no where you start talking bad of HH. Zambians has slept with EL and they now know the size of his brain so it time to try HH and see his size as well.
But ba guy aba…so drunk every day…look at utumatobo, tata mulelya no kulya, not ukunwa fye!!!!! You are such damn azz laughung stock…i think ukwikala sana mukomboni lishamo
Sorry mr president but the fact is you are incompetent. In case you don’t know, please you at your actions and assess them against competent presidents like the Tanzanian or Kenyan presidents
why are people globally insulting and laughing at lungu??? strange,,,, I have never seen a sitting president who has been insulted so much like lungu, poor soul!!!
Chikubabe reloaded………ECL is going through. ZWD and the Post are feeding you lies…………..your UP N Down party is not forming gov’t next year………pwa ha ha ha ha.
ECL IS SO INTELLIGENT, WISE, CARING, CONSIDERATE AND WISER THAN I THOUGHT A LONG TIME AGAO. THE MAN WILL TAKE ZAMBIA TO THE NEXT LEVEL OF DEVELOPMENT IN THE REAL PRACTICAL SENCE. VIVA ECL, VIVA PF, VIVA THE PEOPLE OF ZAMBIA. LUNGU NAFUTI.
@Mushota.There you go Bemba girl full of tribalism and superiority in your head.But God this year shall teach you a lesson that we were all made in the image of God by putting HH on the throne.
A statesman would have attended the London conference on eliminating corruption.
Instead our corrupt and incompetent clown decided to waste Zambian taxpayers money on finding out how to rig elections from his fellow dictator Musuveni.
This idddiot must GO. And be prosecuted for his abuse of office and corruption.
Enough of these PF lies. Zambian must say NO to more dishonesty and deception!
The 2016 most incompetent and *****.ic president award winner Edgar chakolwa kaloba Wrungu actualy they are not insulting you but stating fact.
@ Lutuku Presdo
“…stating fact…” or paying compliments?
The president always talks of petty issues and attends unworthy programs ,watching club games ?most african presidents look handsome whn they are in office whereas all the developed nations leaders become/look old due to stress and excellent
Excution to fullfil their election campaigns.i never hear ecl talk abt economic msg just like pf cadres fail to blog on economic matters.its a shame for zed.
There goes a man who has dissolved parliament, and decides to keep ministers whose jobs come about due to been members of Parliament, am sure he doesn’t know that parliament is national assembly and president, once dissolved him remains constitutionally, dissolution of Parliament automatically dissolves the benefits that come with you being MP such as bu minister, in the current scenario without national assembly if a minister erred in his duties who is he accountable to, when according to article 87, national assembly members are the supposed to censure him or her.
Ba UPND cadres, go and campaign….ignore these PF thugs starting with mushota and kudos
Cabinet ministers report to the President, what kind of dullness is this…
Vizungu remain stvpid, if you so wish.
The post were just stating what the ugandans where saying that need to vheck you in their mental hospital even Etv news in south africa reported what the ugandans called you as a drunkard
The cheap and easy way to secure a vote to plot 1 is to convince the electorate that your opponent is not doing anything. That is the cheap and out of fashion way to approach the presidency especially if you are a perpetual opposition leader. A more mature and civilized way is to acknowledge the success of your opponent but pinpoint critical areas which you think makes you a better candidate. Surely HH, you can be a bit more fairer than that. ECL has completed a number of projects that were started by MMD as well as those started by Sata. So for you to say he has done nothing is being less ingenuous.
ati bb2014 foolish biii1iich, this is 2016. ni ECL Chabe Kwasila.
Right now Zambia is bleeding and hurting economically and hence needs a working president – NOT Lungu obviously because he doesn’t what it is about! Amidst the suffering and pain that Zambians are going through, Lungu is on the CB to “officiate at the Baptist Church conference on Sunday afternoon and later watch a football”.
Both of these are in the Job Description of any President 1. Officiating at the Baptist Church conference 2. Watching a football” cannot be a preoccupation of a serious president of poor country like Zambia. Add the third one – “clubbing at night.”
Why should this idi,ot be an aspiring presidential candidate? Zambia on the way to a failed state!!
When you say Zambia is bleeding what do you mean? Increase of prices for food does not mean the economy is failing. This is a free market economy please. Zambians lets be reading and understand what type of economy we have and what we need to do to live well in this economy. Chinese are coming here to sale chickens, eggs and vegetables but whilst we are blaming Edgar Lungu. Rwandees are selling gloceries we are blaming Lungu. Even a refugee is making money in Zambia but we are busy eating the lies that the economy has collapsed. Does the traffic jams from monday to saturday in the major cities of Zambia reflect a failed economy? Find what to do please? I know you can do it.
@ Dominion
Have you EVER in your worthless parasitic paper-clip pusher life invested and created jobs in Zambia?
Do not add insult to four years and eight months of suffering by millions of fellow Zambians.
President Lungu thank you for preaching unity and peace. That’s the only position Zambians know. Amid incitement for violence by some people Zambians will come out noble by conducting a violent free election and provide unconditional support for anyone the will win the elections.
Kikikikiki some people are you hibernating or what. He was in Uganda just one done and look at the insults that followed him. So many presidents have been to Uganda and those people have never reacted like that. Open your eyes and stop being a cadre be a patriot.
Mr Lungu has become worthless like a used tissue that needs to be flushed out. He has never been relevant as a president. He has economically destroyed this country. He has become like a fart in the room.
Why is he always happy being with Mumbi Phiri instead of his wife? The name Edgar Lungu has become so obnoxious like unip was in the late 80s.
Let him learn to bridle his tongue.
#Kudo Do you think whose ugandans who were insulting your clueless,brainless,useless,hopeless,dullness,heartless,spineless,visionless,ruthless and a drunkard Edgar chakolwa kaloba Wrungu are UPND members he was in uganda for just a day and they noticed his stupi.did what of us who have with him for such a long maybe you are of his calibre.
You will sing about the Ugandan insults day in day out because what he said reflects on your leader HH. What he stated was true and Ugandans are not a standard of measure not even the Western world that think they are our “gods” and you st^pidly accept.
Always takes advantage when people gather for their own business kikikikikikikiki, he knows they can’t gather because of him ,Zambians have decided to move forward with HH
Edgar Lungu is, in my opinion, one of the best presidents in Africa. Yes, like anyone else, he has his own flaws. Those insulting him are bitter and selfish chaps who cant accept that EL from Chawama, instead of Serval Rd, Kabulonga, is a republican president. They want to assume power by whatever means in order to peddle their selfish interests. I once idolised HH, but he has lost my vote because he has surrounded himself with faggots and polistitutes.
Mr. X, if is true that HH has surrounded himself with faggots and h00kers, how come you are not there? After all, you are h00ker faggot.
Masangano road is almost impassable. From masaiti i hope mumbi phiri and her president can use that shortcut to Kitwe……
a leadership that puts God first is a leadership I will stand with anytime of the day/night. God bless this great nation. pf is self cleansing right now like gold is refined by fire to separate the impurities. those that laughed and mocked the support of pf/mmd yesterday are today taking pride in accepting the same rejects of yesterday… stand firm my fellow pf members for in English we say ‘better to stands for something than to fall for anything…’ I thank you
It is because of gullible people like that he has taken to mentioning God, praying in public and commissioning all sorts of ‘for God’ things. Unfortunately for him, God sees through it all and He is the ultimate appointing authority in the entire universe. Stand with him all you like but the decision is God’s.
The man has been presiding over a government of thieves. They are killers because they have been stealing from poor people and do not seem to care. Just recently Lungu was looking like a chicken suffering from coxidiocis but now his cheeks are bulging by each day. He is always flashing out money, he has become rich all of a sudden. Muderers, killers and thieves. That is what they are
The do called thieves have now crossed over to Upnd and chief thief is happily welcoming them.
@ 1mbecile above
You are wrong, the chief thief has not jet crossed to UPND, HE is still in charge of PF
someone help me to understand when our president does any work. I have what is not a big job but I am busy seven days a week and in ten years I have not been on holiday. I support a local soccer team but I don’t have time to watch their games. My question is where does someone running a country get so much time to gallivant?
Mushota I do not agree with your Myopic views because you have never heard of GRACE!!!! GRACE picks the unwanted and PUTS THEM IN POSITIONS OF POWER.. WHO IS GRACE? GRACE IS A PERSON, JESUS CHRIST.. John1:17… God never works with the know it all… the prideful… GRACE WORKS WITH THE HELPLESS Like Lungu not like the devil’s disciple HH full of pride…. he is not of God….Beware
You are always insulting those who not agree with you on this site and you are there quoting the bible and talking of grace. Christianity has become so cheap in this poor country. Some people think that Christianity is so cheap and God is going to allow them do as they wish even going to the extent of trampling on the poor. Remember Jehovah has a soft spot for the poor that you are trampling on.

Lazarous do not use the word of God in vain, do not talk about grace when it comes to Lungu, he usurped PF elections in Kabwe through undemocratic means, threatened violence against Sampa and you say it was by Grace. God forbid.
And what about David who killed Uriah? You do not understand Grace at all iwe Katongo… just sit there and watch God usher Lungu for the next 5 years….
You are not in tune with the Spirit of God… I know that HH will not win this year’s election…even if you like it or not
Please do not parade you ignorance of the Bible here. You think God was happy with David for killing the wife of Uriah? You do not read the consequences of that act through the intervention of Nathan the prophet and God’s own judgement? You do not even know the meaning of ‘Grace’ in the Bible
Vwabi, its you that is ignorant… if in the OT God was able to deal with David in such a manner despite him killing Uriah, then what more now in the NT? You are the one who is can not correctly divide the TRUTH….notice in John 1:17 that TRUTH and GRACE are on the same side and LAW is on the other side….
I think you did not follow the events in Kabwe properly …it was Guy Scott, Miles Sampa and Mulenga Sata who were fighting Lungu. People forget that the PF secretariat was being run by Atanga under the leadership of Guy Scott. It was Guy Scot who convened the conference that elected Lungu. Guy Scott changed goal posts when he realised that Lungu was the people’s choice. To achieve his objective he called for a new conference and different delegates. The man is so bitter about Lungu because he failed to stop him …Every one knows what happened ….Scott was given money by the British and the Americans to stop Lungu / PF from winning.
Looks like any issue that is written on this site ends to be ECL and HH. Are we failing to read or understand issues. We should stop this culture of responding not according to the issue. The president gave his opinion contrary to Musenge ‘s advice.
Great. Now ask your self why? Because he is forgiving or because he will be forced to disclose where misappropriated BILLIONS of loans are deposited?
Lungu you all God fearing Zambian people vote. These blood suckers are going nowhere
There goes the LAZY BUM EDGAR…SURELY how is this bum going to “deal” with media houses insulting him; is this the advice he got from the old corrupt dictator Museveni!!
Lazarus my brother. Do not manipulate Gid’s word to suit your own selfish interest. Read Paul’s letter to the Corithians again. God works with the base things if the world to confound the wife because base things will preach the cross only and not wisdom of men. The Corithian church were generally people perceived to be of low caliber but God honored them. Your abuse if scripture so as to insult and humiliate another of God’s creations, HH, shows that you do not know God neither do you love Him. What if HH becomes president, which is likely, how will you view God; unfair?
Ministers will pay back the stolen money they are wasting when new govt of HH is elected on 11th Aug. Parliament was disolved and that was the end of their mandate, anything outside is illegal.
Sonta Epowabomba iwe!
It’s just common sense to have president Lungu back, it’s safe than plumming for untested/unproven individuals currently on the Political scene. Nawab wit could have cut it, but she us a lone island who prefers to on her own and that excludes her from the suitability requirement. The rest are politicians with very long tongues hanging out of their mouths, salivating at the possibility of taking office.
Nawab wit is Nawakwi renamed by editor!!
Mr president,
Not dealing with stories in the media is what got you and PF to where you have to struggle to win the elections despite having spent 10 billion US.
Allegations of corruption and mismanagement were showing up every day in the media and you and your GRZ chose to ignore them. The people now believe those allegations of corruption and abuse of pupils funds by you and your PF GRZ.
Apologies for the typos in previous post i.e. Gid instead of God; confound instead of comfound; wife instead of wise; if instead of ‘of’
i also dont care even if he is insulted cos i know tt he will b re elected no bitter, satanist will b a president of zambia in jesus name i declare zambia for jesus. and who ever wants to b a president of zambia should stop or give up satanism. wait for 2016 .08. u will confirm
Do’nt mind the luficer files. Sonya epowabimba!
Lungu asonta pa corruption, imitengo, ukusapula, power cut, inflation…………….lol
Sonta Epowabomba iwe!
Why doesn’t President Lungu do himself a favour. He should stop interfering with the internal affairs of another country. His stance on Ugandan elections was ill advised. On retaining his Cabinet Ministers after Parliament was dissolved he is morally and politicaly wrong. He may have his own legal arguments but does he find it morally and financially prudent to allow these Ministers to use govt financial resources and assets to campaign for him,PF and themselves during the current elections?It does not put him in good light with the public. The impression created is that he is wasteful and extravagant and financially irresponsible in using state financial resources and assets. The benefits of keeping these Ministers in my view are far less than disappointing them. President Lungu stands…
Sonta Epowabomba iwe!

It’s better for him to resign. I hope he can see that he is unwanted. All his drunken moves he is making to stay in power are so transparent they won’t get him any where. What a despicable embarrassment to Zambia. He is now a world renowned stup!d drunkard, Africa village id!iot. Icusushi icishibula pa nsaka. He should do all of us and himself a favour by resigning.
Mmmmh that bitterness. Your ideal president is G.W Bush right?
Very serious! @ Marley,
You insult the people from Northern/Eastern provinces and yet you are crying for their votes. Your HYENA Hungry(HH) man will remain in opposition forever if you don’t evolve. Your tribe is known to teach hatred against other innocent tribes. Your hatred originates from your tonga homes, it was a hidden fact but now your behavior is exposed. Change for the better!
Zambia is for all Zambians we are equal whats so special with northern and eastern.We are all equal in the eyes of god.No one has insulted all we are saying is Lungu will lose that’s a fact.VIVA HH
I keep giving this free counsel and its like bloggers just like to express their views. The voters register is out. Lets debate or discuss who will win in the light of the voters registers. Lets be civil and be discussing constituencies and why we think Party so and so will win in a particular area. Not just saying we will win or so and so will will win. How will they win? Its clear that UPND has command in Southern, North-western, central and western. PF has command in Copperbelt, Lusaka, Eastern, Muchinga, Northern and Luapula. So has PF kept their strength in these areas or has UPND penetrated the PF strongholds in order to be sure of wrestling power from PF. These are the issues we should be intelligently be talking about not just insulting. Insults shows lack of ability to reason.
@ dominion
You suggest to “… debate or discuss who will win in the light of the voters registers…”???
People need food, jobs, education, medical care, end of police brutality, accountability for missing billions of dollars, end of institutionalized corruption…………….. This are the issues to be debated instead.
Calling you 1MBECILE is not a insult. IT IS A FACT
@ hung them high, you have failed to debate issues and you have resorted to insults. Like I said insults are a sign of failing to reason. Even in America theres poverty, in UK theres poverty. All these issues you are raising theres no president HH, Nawakwi, Nevers, Eric Chanda, Winter etc who would be bringing food on your door steps if they won elections. You eat by working. Hospitals are there, ACC is there to prosecute, Auditor General is there, Courts are there. Who steals medicine from hospitals? Is it Edgar Lungu? Who refused to testify or who has been delaying the Tedworth cases, is ACC or Edgar Lungu? Who squandered money at Famers Union and the like? is it Edgar Lungu?
@ dominion
God. Well said. Now,n let us debate about IMF inevitable bail-out.
1. Why the need of bail-out;
2. Who is responsible for creating economical situation where IMF bail-out become only solution and
3. Who can manage expected harsh conditions better?
F*ck you and your incompetent, directionless and totally corrupt PF.
Hung them High is right. You are 1MBECILE
That is what I keep saying about UPNd cadres, they are master insulters and haters, sadly including their leaders not only GBM but even HH! These guys will even hate and big insult their own fathers if they saw them drinking tea with Edgar. Which Zambians will vote for such a party? With the latest campaign strategy of UPNd of hating and big insulting, even their own strongholds have changed their plans to vote for them, ati is this the party which we want to lead us? Ati Oh my God, it’s good that they have shown their true colors of hate and immorality well before the elections, otherwise we were going to make a fatal mistake! That is what they say in the bars and taverns.
Spot on. When you give platform to the minority, they think that they are the majority and they can insult everyone & whoever doesn’t agree with their strategy of insults forgetting that the people & bloggers they are insulting are voters too. The insults they are hailing on everyone will just subtract votes for their leaders who are trying every thing possible to win votes. Sad indeed.
Well said Mr. President. Do your best and leave vengeance to GOD. If you kill all your enemies and those who persecute you, who is GOD going to set a table before with?
Psalm 23:5 “You prepare a banquet for me, where all my enemies can see me; you welcome me as an honored guest and fill my cup to the brim.”
what does royalty to PF bring to those poor folks asked to be royal. Put empowerment programs and ask for royalty when you’re fat like p!g when a few months back you looked under nourished! What royalty, wake up folks!
Chagwa ala uku la tukwa lyose as long as you make ufya bupuba when you go out of country(UGANDA) and even in your country you will go thru some.
Thanks for the insults, but we still support Edgar.
If HH has so much money to offer to pay all cabinet ministers for political ends, why doesn’t he consider subsidizing mealie meal prices from GBM Milling? Instead of subsidizing, GBM wants to export his maize and ask for votes from hungry people who he has deprived of mealie meal. To be UPNd kwena ni shiki yabipisha nganshi!
Because ECL and his 40 thief’s will export that subsidized mealie meal and buy some more houses in South Africa
I just said that HH and Zambian watchdog will cry again, its the fact and not an insult!
All you fcking cadres both upnd and pf are pising me off.You are all out to decieve people and get power at all costs.For fcs sake you are all Zambians.This politicking has gotten to a all new level of toxicity.All ths shty situation like ritual killings are just fucing political.Let a whiteman come and rule,you have all fucing failed stink as$s nigas
Ifwe ni HH fye, weather you like it or not forward forward. Chagwa azagwa manje manje
How can he denie, won’t even respond, cox, people. Are telling the truth, ni chakolwa, and he insulted the Ugandans , he won’t visit the country’ again. The truth pains, so he cannot respond

Your Seed Determines Your Harvest
Have you ever looked at a large, old tree and wondered how long it has been there? It’s amazing to think that at one point, that gigantic tree was merely a tiny seed. In the same way, our words and actions are seeds. We will always reap a harvest on what we sow.
THE HATERS GET EVEN HURT WHEN THEY HEAR GOD BEEN MENTIONED.
HATERS
HATERS
HATERS YOU ARE ALL BOOMED IN YOUR HATRED.
I entirely agree with Dominion @8.1. We Zambians talk a lot and expect the government to do everything for us. If only we could work even 10% of the time we spend waffling our country would have developed. I rest my case.
