UPND Vice President Geoffrey Mwamba has been granted K10 000 bail by the Kitwe Magistrate Court with two working surities in the Kitwe magistrates court this morning.

Mr Mwamba denied all state charges and his case adjourned to 24th June 2016 for trial.

He is facing one count of conduct likely to breach the peace and two counts of assault involving allegations that he slapped two vendors at Chisokone market.

Earlier today, Mr Mwamba who has been in police detention since Saturday, urged his supporters not to worry as he makes his court appearance in the Kitwe Magistrate Court.

“This morning I appear in Kitwe Magistrate Court well it will be once more good to be with you outside for a moment whether am released on bond or taken back that does not matter much. What matters is who I am and what I mean to the people of Zambia and my family,” Mr Mwamba said from his police cell.

“Brethren worry not nothing can break or divert me for who I stand for in this world social justice indeed a better life is what I and my President Hakainde Hichilema want for the people of Zambia,” he said.

“Finally, am charged with Conduct among three other charges which include assault of two persons. Let’s see how the same two dramatists shall face me and the court after swearing that everything they will testify is true and nothing but the truth.”

“My family and Party members worry not, I committed no offence this is all fake but tricks to disturb my campaign, they definitely felt my weight in the three days I held rallies across the province. nothing can stop me from fighting to liberate the people of Zambia,” he said.

“I thank my nephews UDF President Miles Sampa, Hon Patrick Mucheleka, Major Kachingwe for the works we did together which have costed me a charge of conduct. Yes all our acts were towards winning an election and for President Edgar Lungu and his PF that is an offence.

I have missed you all. I look forward to see you at court this morning.”

  1. This violent bag of dirt is not fit to live amongst us civilized human beings. Let it rot in the cells. What a VP Running Mate for Kaponya (HH)

    • We miss GBM too. It is indeed sad that Charity Katanga is fighting so hard to be promoted or sent out as ambassador.

    • Women and the poor Zambians would never be safe without a restrain order on Mwamba. This is one thing I admire tge US justice system despite many flaws, that country has zero tolerance for GBV and sex offenders. I shader a country under the VP of pheldophile, GBV and xenophobic low IQ rascal. It would be Dada Amin reloaded on all Zambian women GOD forbid. This why it’s interesting to who Hichilema takes as his running mate. ECL has gone for sober motherly Zambia. Will UPND give Zambia a sober head? Anything short of that will be candidaCy Brought in Dead (BiD).

    • You embassy staff whose main job is blogging, you will be sorry for yourselves soon when GBM will be in power. If your insults were putting food on the table of the masses and reducing the cost of living, then you were going to win. And don’t be excited about Saturday crowds which any ruling party with millions of dollars to spend in a single day to bus cadres from across the country can afford. Actually the right figure should have been 2 million people in attendance not ka mere 120 (if true) when anyone ion the small towns would want to be driven to Lusaka and back with food and allowances provided.

    • GBM

      The Lord says this to you: No weapons fashioned against you shall prevail. Arrows shot at you in the day deflect and boomerang back to the sender. Your enemies will coil in retreat and run away in humiliation and shame. The Lord God is a man of war; He will contend against your enemies and beat them into submission. As to the order of Haman, they are hung on the very gallows they prepared and burn in the fire they have set and fall in the pit they have dug. God torments your enemies till they are completely defeated and swallowed in the red sea and you shall see them no more ever!

    • HH and the upnd is demonstrably a pain in your behind. You can be objective if you wanted to but your desperation for PF Mr Kudos is driving you crazy clueless,. I guess you may be sweating right now. Please allow you friends their democratic rights, don’t choke. Am fine with anybody as long as they concentrate on issues to reduce poverty. Let the people’s choice win at the end of the day.

    • No one is above the law, ba upnd u are the same people who condamed the padoning of Ba kanene check this outu. So because gbm is pizza to u, u want him out even when he has comitted a crime. Tamwasende ichalo ifyo, who do u think u are? The law has no giant lekeni gbm nga kupapa, apapile mumaselu. Seleni; we are still working.

    • balusaka times, you have left something gbm said. he had explained that he did not slap anyone but you have deliberaly left ut that, its a shame you are also turning into a pf propaganda page.

    • Lungu personifies incompetent, corrupt and clueless Africa leaders who are always scared of opposition and yet they claim to have performed well. What Lungu does not realize is that without GBM PF would be in power. GBM spent a lot of money on building the PF.

  2. You just wait Kaponya (HH) very soon those loyal UPND founding members will move to greener pastures. Jack Mwimbu, Hamududu and crew.

    • (HH) will fix it (HH) will fix it what can you fix Kaponya, when you can’t fix the cracks in your failed top leadership with violent thug bullies who assault hard working women at the market?

    • Instead of investing that money in meaningful campaigns with a message for the people, UPND is spending it on bailing out the thug GBM. And (HH) with all his sense of leadership can protect a vulgar character who insulted the PF leadership in a lengthy Tayali recording for all Zambians to hear. (HH) the members of UPND are watching your actions

    • You people this is so wrong. Even Mr Sata if he was around wouldn’t have treated GBM in this manner. GBM contributed greatly to PF, he deserves some respect. Imwe bena Kambwili and the like should know better. You should look back and know where you are coming from. You can’t behave like abo bambi ba sangwapo.

      Even if someone has gone, let him go in peace. GBM can’t do you any harm ba Lungu

  3. Kaponya (HH) has an amazing appetite for State House and is literally prepared to replace founding UPND members with failures and violent vulgar bullies. What a stain on the once clean party.

    • All law abiding citizens must stand up and give a round of applause to the brave ZP Copperbelt command and in particular Charity Katanga for their outstanding professionalism. She’s feared by many wrong doers. Despite intimidation from storming UPND cadres, she stood firm and chucked them out of the office. Such are the officers we need to fight crime and other offences in our country. Her voice in the address to the media about the arrest of this Fat Basturd was full of Authority and without fear. Zambia Police, the people can regain confidence in you thanks to the leadership of our humble, wise and God-fearing President Lungu

  4. Meanwhile I want to understand the association (HH) has with Maureen, Mutinta and Kaseba. There’s something in common among these women. This man is crafty. Can he be trusted with the instruments of power?

  5. No wonder Mutati has come back to his senses after realising that (HH) is greedy and Under 5. Mutati faction endorses Sonta po team!

    • Kudos you seem to be so dull you know deep down your heart these are made up accusations PFs strategy is dum the votes are now sympathising with GBM in other words PF is campaigning for UPND using the cops, instead of you guys going around explaining the manifesto you are there talking about UPND people are hungry, they have no jobs, corruption is rampant

    • Elyo imwe mwe ba Bemba you surprise me. Look at how the Easterners vehemently protected RB although even a young child knew that RB was the most corrupt, worst leader this Country has ever seen. Now he has even been cleansed and his immunity restored. Whats surprising is why would anyone who is not guilty would cry for the immunity to be given back to him… dirty old man RB

  6. GBM YOU ARE USELESS YOU HAVE NO LEADERSHIP QUALITIES YOU ARE MERELY A STREET KABOVA. YOU HAVE LITERLLY FINISHED UPND AND I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY HH CANT DISCIPLINE YOU. COME 11 AUGUST YOU WILL BE IN A DUST BIN COZ EL WILL TRASH YOU AND HH

    • Lungu is worse He has failed to tame Mumbi Phiri and CK, GBM made PF what it is today, the problem with PF is if someone leaves they automatically become enemies, barbaric type of thinking even EL himself once stole from a client you cannot trust him

  7. What could have caused Mutati to run away from Kaponya (HH) and oust Nevers Mumba from MMD? Something very evil must have made him run away from the Free Mansion. Kaponya (HH) tried to initiate him. Please Zambia we cannot afford to turn State House into a Free Mansion lodge

    • So you want us to go for a man who believes in sangomas you have forgotten those sangomas that went to state house. HH is clean dont mudsling the incoming president

    • Mutati did run away from HH just like Katele Kalumba did.He has just made another choice in the same way younger Charly Muzo made a chouse . Nobody should be demonised for making a choice. Wrong or right.
      I am inclined to feel that GBM is right now being politically harassed. Lungu can’t touch Scott, ?ungu can’t touch HH and so they have picked GBM and wouldn’t be surprised if Miles is followed by these masked police girls and boys. All I can advise is PF needs to work harder Instead of insulting and demonising their opponents. There is a land shakeup on the copperbelt ba PF…..

    • If this is the hatred you habour the incoming President then you die of gnashing your teeth with jealousy and then jealousy will kill you. My friend HH is going to Plot 1 like it or not. Last Saturday is proof enough that your man is gone back to Chawama. Ukose fye mune if you were eating from Kaminamisa.

  8. Just how does it happen that Kudos imbecile is first to blog and others are blocked until the imbecile has loaded his messages. LT compromised right!

  9. @Kudo ulitole sana…..
    Take Doom if you want…..
    HH & UPND will Win weather you like it or not………

    • @Prophesy just explain what could have caused Mutati to run away from Kaponya (HH) after following him around the country in 2015? Mutati must have seen something about this Hichilema. I’m just wandering what it is that Mutati uncovered after entering UPND and seeing the inside of the beast. There must be something he saw which made him run away from UPND

    • @kudos.
      Its called cash sir. Mutati became a hired hitman. Get elected and handover the party to pf immediately was the mandate. Didn’t even care for the delegates as they were on their own right after the ceremony.

  10. HH has a huge task to bring on board a running mate.
    I hope he is having good sleep.
    Have you guys ever found yourself trying to solve a problem, then you start to dream sensational solutions in your sleep only to work up and find that it was after all just a mere dream.
    I hope this is not happening to HH at this time.
    GBM is helping to destroy UPND, and sad that HH is not aware – so sad.
    But anyway, HH is not a political leader – he does well in private practice, something some Zambians are not able to distinguish. Success in the kitchen does not mean you can success at a farm, neither does success at a farm mean you can succeed as a leader.
    After 11 August UPND will not be the same again, it will disintegrate to many fine particles.

    • I f I was HH, I would make Guy Scott my running mate for this election and explain to the Zambians that Zambia is divided and we need a unifying factor who managed to unite Zambia at the time my mbuya Ukwa died. I can also make Guy sign that he will be my vice for one term to allow a much younger person in 2021 that I will grooom. Simple

    • @Peter Njobvu, you are probably right here. But HH’s thinking is skewed over this matter. He wants the bully GBM to be his running mate, and that will be like digging his own grave. Let him make all the mistakes (wrong choices) like he has done for Kasama Central and Lusaka Central. PF will simply feast on such mistakes. HH has been blinded. He can not see anymore. He is confused. Viva ECL, Viva PF.

  11. Heavenly Father, I ask You to execute divine judgment against satanic/demonic activities and help us war in the spirit of Elijah and Jehu according to 1 Kings 18:1-46, 9-10:2. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I bind all of satan’s evil, wicked, demons, lying, manipulation, ConArtistry, dupery, violence, intimidation and strongmen along with all their works, roots, fruits, and tentacles. Father and my Lord Jesus Christ, I ask You to place HH’s name and campaign on the hearts of all prayer warriors, intercessors, and prophetic watchmen to pray for him. I ask You to let them not cease or come down from their watchtowers until their assignments have been completed. Great Father of glory, pure Father of light, I ask You to destroy all ill spoken words, all ill wishes, all…

    • Great Father of glory, pure Father of light, I ask You to destroy all ill spoken words, all ill wishes, all enchantments, all spells, hexes, curses, all witchcraft prayers, psychic prayers, witchcraft spells, voodoo spells, satanic spells, and every idle word spoken against HH and his campaign contrary to God’s original plans and purposes. Lord Jesus, I ask that You destroy the curses associated with these utterances and decree and declare that: they shall not stand; they shall not come to pass; they shall not take root; and their violent verbal dealings are returned to them double-fold according to Isaiah 54:17. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. And all the saints shout a Jericho wall razing, “Amen!”

  12. HERE IS THE UNFITNESS FOR A POLITICAL POSITION OF MR GBM

    MR GBM HAS ALREADY PRESENTED TO ZAMBIANS WHAT TYPE OF A MAN HE IS.
    1. DOMESTICALLY, HE DEMONSTRATED HIS FAILURE AT SELF-CONTROL BY BEATING UP HIS WIFE AND
    2. ON THE POLITICAL SCENE? A PUNCHER OF ANYONE WHO DARES TO OPPOSE HIM. SO HE CLAIMS TO REPRESENT THE INTEREST OF ZAMBIANS? YOUR HERO, A MAN WHO PUNCHES YOU? ALL COME ONE GBM AND YOUR PARTY? IT’S A DEFINITE TO SUCH LEADERS, IN FACT AN EMPHATIC NO!

  14. Kudos seems feeling upnd’s strength. He is so desperate in support of pf. He thinks Mutati is not an independent person who can not aspire for leadership of a party he chooses. Multi is MMD and look already his MMD wants to sell itself to pf. Am sure upnd does not want that because while parties have come and gone under, National party, Lparty, zrp, to mention a few, UPND seems to have stood the taste of being strong. Kudos and other should digest issues.

  15. HH is dull he can not read between the line that Bembas have flooded his party the UPND in a bid to take over the party. Senior members like Garry Nkombo, Jack Mwiimbu and some others are aware of this scheme. Thats why GBM has just been insulting Zambian. Which normal Zambian can vote for the leadership which insults citizens from which they want votes? ZWA UPND.

  16. My statement remains, watch Eastern and Western Provinces carefully. If Edgar Lungu wins 70% of the vote in Eastern Province, it could be all but over.

  17. Just the CIZUNGU which is coming out of his mouth tells you that the guy is a KABOVA and not fit to be a STATE VEEP. While we are gradually getting rid of some retrogressive KAPONYAS from our party (PF) some scavenger opposition political parties like the UPND are busy getting them in the name of ‘politics is a game of numbers” not knowing they are terribly being disadvantaged. Wait and see! By the time we get to AUGUST many genuine members of UPND will realize that it’s a mistake to work with people like GBM if you really mean to win competitive elections and later on render service to the Zambian community.

  18. @jealous down:WHETHER YOU WERE THERE OR NOT MATTERS LESS TO US MAJORITY PF LOVERS AND THE WIND OF CHANGE WHICH YOU TALK ABOUT IN UPND IS ONLY IN YOUR TONGA LAND.MAJORITY OF US NONE TONGA WILL VOTE FOR PF AND THERE IS NO WIND OF CHANGE IN OUR AREAS!!plus whether you like it or not,PF will sweep Lusaka and Copperbelt urban seats like it did in 2011!!!DONT FORGET THAT EVEN THOSE PF MPS OR SENIOR LEADERS WHO HAD DOUBTS ABOUT PF’S POPULARITY AND WANTED TO CROSS OVER-COULD HAVE CHANGED THEIR MINDS TODAY AFTER SEEING SUCH MAGNITUDES OF PF LOVERS!!SO TODAY’S RALLY HAS GIVEN PF MORE STRENGTH AND UPND AS USUAL IS A BIG LOSER HERE!!!even voters who maybe were worried today proved beyond any doubts that PF is still Mighty!!!”UMUNTU NI LUNGU-2016!!SONTA!!!

  19. MY PRAYER IS FOR ZAMBIA TO HAVE PEACE NOW AND EVER, EVERY YEAR WE HAVE GRADUATES FROM COLLEGES, SCHOOL LEAVERS AND NEW BORN BABIES. CAN WE PLAN TOGETHER. HOW ARE WE GOING TO INCREASE FOOD SUPPLY IN THE COUNTRY, JOB OPPORTUNITIES AND NEW JOBS, LETS LOOK FORWARD…. ZAMBIA OPEN YOUR EYES. WHICH PRESIDENT HAS A VISION? A LOT OF WATER IN ZAMBIAN RIVERS IS NOT USED. EGYPT WITH ONE NILE RIVER NO HUNGER. TWAFWANI BANE TE KUTEKA FYE TULEFWAYA, TULEFWAYA INCITO SHIFULE, IFYAKULYA FIFULE. BENGI BASAMBILILA. MUMUTENDE TIYENI BOONSE TUPEPELE PAMO LESA ATUPELE UWAKWATA VISION YA KUPWISHA EFYO TULEMONA.

  20. GBM: My supporters don’t worry as I make my court appearance in the Kitwe Magistrate Court.
    Me: Well you are worrying everyone because you are acting like a violent kid
    GBM: What matters is who I am and what I mean to the people of Zambia and my family:
    Me: Be reminded that you ‘re a grade 9 nobody and you don’t mean well Zambia.
    GBM: Nothing can stop me from fighting to liberate the people of Zambia.
    Me: Well that’s not the way to fight for the people of Zambia, you are embarrassing yourself
    See, you and your adopted boss are businessmen and you don’t know politics but business and violence!

  21. Do UPND supporters really in their heart of hearts believe that GBM is what they need in their party? The man who was shown to be corrupt by their bible the Watchdog as well as being someone who regularly beats up his wife. One of the reasons I never supported PF in the past was because of characters like GBM and I certainly wont support UPND now because of the same GBM. GBM should be in prison and not in any political party seeking public office.

    • I totally agree with you 1,000,000% on the question – Do UPND supporters (including their president and his management team) in their heart of hearts really believe that GBM is what they need in their party? If they needed a bemba in their UPND, it shouldn’t have been GBM but any other person would have been ideal but not him, NO, NO and NO.

  22. Being rude and arrogant has no part in our modern politics if that is the route you feel is better to take so that you can earn some political mileage from voters without brains then you are wasting your time. Because no matter what you are going to say about the government to justify your childish conducts will not help you and your president to win this year’s election.
    Emulate HE Mr. ECL the president of Zambia who has chosen to conduct issue-based campaigns.

  23. You see GBM, I don’t honestly know who the h.ell lied to you that you matter and that you can rise to the leadership in this beloved country. Do not take your freedom for granted, prisoner. Your stooges and goons will act like they love you, behold, you’re embarrassing your fatself and your innocent family. Years back you were reported to have battered your wife (in a GBV fashion) and claimed that you were strengthening your marriage. This proves to everyone, your goons, included that you have a pathological violent nature. You recruited youths to a rebel group militia in red regalia. You have no shame. Don’t raise your 200KG hand to smash a 50KG poor marketeer. Mmmmmh! yama, bushilu or ingulu mwa?

    • Did you mean decampaign? If you in Upnd thinks gbm is attracting people to Upnd you are wrong. Just be in Zambia and hear what voters are saying. Upnd HH is nowhere near winning elections.

  24. This UPND Party lacks focus it doesnt know its primary and secondary goals…they have already lost 4 precious days of campaiging and PF is laughing at them.This GBM will never change as he is a kaponya you cant take a kaponya to a five star hotel dinner function with an open bar and expect him to be well behave.

  25. Gbm is there to destroy upnd,if hakainde doesn’t realise this he ll cry in this years election,coz has failed to get advice from the original members of the part.he thinks by keeping gbm he win support from cb,luapula province and n/province,abepele fye.

  26. THAT IS THE REASON LUNGU IS LOSING THE ELECTIONS BEACAUSE HE IS ALREADY DECAMPAIGNING HIMSELF WHEN HE MISTREAT HIS RIVALS.

  27. I can see diplomats who were appointed on the ground of being cadres are panicking. They are spending all the time blogging. I just came back from Zambia. Things look 50-50. It is difficulty to tell who is going to win. PF is not as strong as it used to be under Sata nor is UPND as strong as PF used be under Sata. Any of the 2 can take it. The trouble is that ECL will abuse government resources for him to win this election. Which ever way it is going to be a sad situation for the country after this election. I urge them guys living in Zambia to prepare for tough times. If there is a way the Zambian citizens should stop the plunder which is taking place right now for ECls victory to be secured. Can you imagine how much was spent on transporting people to Lusaka for the launch of the…

  28. Lungu personifies incompetent, corrupt and clueless Africa leaders who are always scared of opposition and yet they claim to have performed well. What Lungu does not realize is that without GBM PF would be in power. GBM spent a lot of money on building the PF.

  29. THROW THE GRADE 7 IN JAIL AND THROW AWAY THE KEYS IN LAKE KARIBA.
    HE NEEDS TO LOSE WEIGHT FAST.
    THE CHAP THINKS HE IS PRESIDENTIAL MATERIAL WHEN IN FACT NOT.

  30. @Kudos, you are really hard on these guys. I see their pleas for other bloggers to ignore you. But you are really saying the truth, and the truth hurts if you are on the other side. Keep hammering them – am enjoying every moment. Let the opposition know that it will be folly to remove a working government, one that has brought unprecedented development to the country. But depraved minds will keep asking: “are people going to eat roads and other infrastructure littered all over”? Little do they know that “pakamwa sipatasha”. Our desire is to eat and continue eating and never become hungry – this is only possible if the basic prerequisites for sustainable food production are in place, which our hard-working PF are providing. We all need to be seen supporting hard work and getting…

  31. PF carders are now trembling, coz akalilo is coming to an end. Don’t cheat yourselves, the truth is PF has crumbled, GBM and Sampa are playing freely in PF’s bedrooms. Come to CB and witness not ukulotafye! @kudos.

  32. THOSE WHO MEET HH, GBM AND DR BANDA, PLIZ TELL THEM THAT WE ARE NOW FEELING THE INEVITABLE BREEZE OF CHANGE. TELL THEM TO PRINT AND SELL AS MANY T SHIRTS AND BURETS AS POSSIBLE AT A SUBSIDIZED PRICE. WE WANT TO GO RED. PF IS USING OUR TAX PAYERS’ MONEY NOWONDER THEY ARE DISTRIBUTING FREELY. THATS WHY THEY DECIDED TO CONTINUE GETTING PAID EVN AFTER PARLIAMENT CLOZED. THIS WILL COST THEM.THEY ARE GETTING OUR MONEY FOR THIE POLITICAL MILLAGE. THOSE WHO PRINT T SHIRTS, HERE IS BUSINESS FRO YOU, PRINT AND SELL BUT GET IN TOUCH WITH UPND LEADERSHIP FOR AUTHORIZATION. THIS TITANIC IS SINKING

  33. POLICE IS POLICE BABA. I LIKE IT WHEN POLICE STAND UP TO SUCH SO CALLED BIG FISH WHO THINK THAT THEY ARE BIGGER THAN GOVERNMENT AND CAN BELITTLE UBUTEKO. NOT EVEN GABRIEL DARED BRING AN ACCUSATION AGAINST SATAN BUT SAID THE LORD REBUKE YOU SATAN. GOD IS GREATER THAN ALL AND THE POLICE ARE GOD’S LONG ARM TO BRING ORDER. THEY ARE GOD’S MINISTERS.

  34. Apart from criticising Gbm for hitting his wife and not any of your wives..What point do you have to bring him down..Zambians are usually bitter with successful people..You embrace poverty..You think the life we lead in Zambia is normal..people can’t even buy a brand new car..90% of lives are loan based..show me an ordinary citizen not a Pf cadre who’s life has improved during pf’s rule..smes have suffered..You can’t explain rampant loadshedding..No agricultural investments..please don’t force people to like you ba Pf..elo Upnd isn’t the only party to attack..You can attack Poor people’s party if you want..if you are winning ba Pf then why act violent..Why ask us to sonta..did we ask you in the time of Mmd…don’t be afraid of change..
