BEWARE OF UPND ‘TENDERPRENEURS AND CROOKS,’ THE POST WARNS

Barely four months ago on 29th January 2016, many Zambian readers were greeted with a shocking headline and story in the Post Newspaper regarding the opposition UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema commonly known as HH. The headline was shocking because it read: “HH regrets insulting The Post,” and the reason for that is a matter of public knowledge to any politically savvy Zambian—HH and Post publisher Fred M’membe were not exactly cut from the same piece of cloth and were the most unlikely allies under any given circumstances.

Both gentlemen historically resented each other with a passion to an extent that one could never get to level of apologizing to the other even if it meant a loss of life was eminent. The reason for the love-hate relationship is probably a matter for another day’s discussion because today a new page has opened in the lives of the two gentleman yet again.

If a scathing editorial in the tabloid today (24th May 2016) is anything to go by, the love affair between The Post and HH has either come to an end or is nearing a bitter end soon.

But before getting to today’s comment, a recap on HH’s olive branch three months ago that left a bitter taste in the mouths of many that support him read:

 “The People of Zambia must give The Post Newspaper unconditional support and appreciation because the job that they are doing for everybody is too important to be trivialised by political differences,” Hichilema said.

The opposition leader boot-licked on like a whining puppy seeking attention,

 “We (HH and UPND) have obviously misunderstood them in the past and attacked them unnecessarily and this is regrettable.” 

The eulogy continued:

“We (HH) want to live that in the past. We need to open a new page, all of us people of Zambia, UPND included and myself. We need to look forward with The Post.”
“What is important now is to give The Post our unconditional support, and personally, I (HH) will visit the newspaper with my colleagues when we return to Lusaka to give our friends the solidarity they deserve from all of us.”

For those that know not the love hate history of the newspaper and the opposition party, here is a bit of background, before the truce, the tabloid had called HHs party a tribal Bantustan party that had a regional colour while its leader HH had even been roasted for one graft allegation or another.

Hakainde had also called the newspaper publisher an arrogant man that sometimes thought he was a literally a young brother of Jesus Christ. The fights, the hate, the blood, the accusations and counter accusations continued and the rest of the nation stood by and watched wondering who would go down first.

Today, however, the two partners appear to have fallen back to their bad ways with the tabloid striking first blood and calling HH and his party some unpalatable terms such as “Dodgy” and “Tenderpreneurs” which normally would be left for bitter enemies and not partners.

The tabloid seems to have suddenly realized that contrary to chanting slogans of ‘ability for economic management and graft fight’, the UPND is thin on commitment because they are just an ordinary bunch of Tenderpreneurs and crooks. A new term that may soon enter the Zambian day to day lingua franca like Sonta epo wabomba popularized by President Edgar Lungu.

The tabloid thinks HH and his cohorts are nothing but Dodgy Tenderpreneurs masquerading as businessmen, they are inconsistent and cannot be trusted because of the following reasons:

  • The UPND is dominated by elements that were running business in MMD and PF
  • UPND is incapable of talking about corruption and least of all fight it because its members are corrupt
  • HH denounced corruption of RB in 2009 but promised to embrace RB if he assumed office
  • New UPND stalwart heavily defended PF on corruption but today he accuses the PF of corruption forcing The Post to ask: “what nonsense is this (Guy Scott) what hypocrisy is this?

Perhaps one of the greatest consternation for the tabloid is the observation that the UPND today is not the UPND of yesteryear but one full of “crooks” interested only in enriching themselves if they assumed power through tenders.

The will to win power according to the tabloid is simply that of greed and it is their “insubstantial glue” these Tenderpreneurs. The UPND does not mean well for Zambia says the tabloid.

The tabloid says because of the colour of tenderpreneurs, UPND has the propensity of becoming worse in government than any other party.

The above concerns are not being raised by the ruling PF but by the UPNDs strongest ally and biggest news supporter, The Post newspaper in its 24th January 2016 of page 20.

So if the newspaper that chose three months ago to fully support HH and his party against all odds has finally seen through the parties entrenched corruption, what must Zambia voters do?

They must hid The Post advice and push HHs political career into oblivion because he cannot be trusted and neither can Guy Scott whom the newspaper has called nonsensical and hypocritical.

Politics must perhaps be left to tested leaders like Edgar Lungu who in a year has shown he can make tough economic decisions and unite a country.

Beware of Tenderpreneurs and crooks in UPND disguised as economic managers and politicians. Heed The Post warning or live to regret supporting them.

The above is a summary of extracts in the editorial comment in The Post newspaper dated 24th January 2016.

    • This PamaFi’s interpretation of snippets!!

      Chanda no utu matobo twakwe, kwati tu masuku aposele mukanwa!!

      #chagwamustfall!! Pamafikuyabebele!!

      vote wisely 11/8/2016!! Vote Zambia Forward!! Vote UPND!! Abantu baya!!

      I thank you!!

    • @Jack Chibwe, neutral to you means don’t attack UPND or publish any facts against UPND. These are facts and go and read the post, the editorial is there and indeed the pensioners did go to HH’s yesterday , should this be not reported like the ZWD does. I think LT is fair and covers everyone. This is not even about PF and Sunday Chanda. This is about the Post Vs HH relationship..and this is the truth about it. The Post Want Kabimba period and not HH. Suffice to say that they are crooks too still bitter for not putting their man Kabimba at the top of PF party

    • No @Jack Chibwe, LT is only stating facts as seen by The Post!

      It is actually amazing that the Post even pretended to support HH/UPND. Feel sorry for Hakainde with his desperation to win by any means necessary—even getting into bed with his sworn enemies like M’membe did seem to matter to him.

      Fortunately, many Zambians are able to see through the “facade” that the “Dodgy” and “Tenderpreneurs” gathering in UPND really are. It is surprising it has taken Newspapers such as the Post this long to figure this one out!

      Indeed, beware of the “Dodgy” and “Tenderpreneurs” gathering in the Opposition waiting anxiously to suck our Country dry once more. Uwakale takaleka, simply changing Political Parties can rehabilitate known crooks/Tenderpreneurs like GBM overnight!

    • Oops, meant to say: “….changing Political Parties can [NOT] rehabilitate known crooks/Tenderpreneurs like GBM overnight!”

    • Just tell Fred Mmembe to tell us how he acquired the 100 trucks and the tender to transport copper to Namibia. ask him how he frustrated Prof Chirwa in his attempt to revamp ZRL and tackle over its rightful business of transporting Copper by rail and not by road which damages the roads. Let him tell us how his friend Wynter Kabimba got oil importation tenders for his company with Michael Sata under Ilunda Chalo.

    • Actually Fred Mmembe is sitting between a hard place and a rock i.e. between Edgar Lungu and HH. He is in a dilemma and doesn’t know who to really back. He knows it won’t be easy going forward under Edgar lungu but also he doesn’t trust HH to provide him the leeway to run government like he did under Sata. In his confusion he ends up supporting Wynter’s socialism nonsense.

    • Comment:While Fred Mmembe and Wynter Kabimba are pushing for socialism, Venezuela is in deep trouble economically because of socialism. There is no sugar, no power, no soap, etc. They have what we had toward the last days of unip in the 80s- long cues for commodities. Under a socialist government, Venezuela has privatised industries and as usual as in every socialist state, they have appointed loyalists to run the nationalised industries which have now been run down. Socialism is not realistic. It is an ideal ideology for an ideal environment I.e. heaven. And then Fred and Wynter are dangling this failed ideology knowing that Zambians generally are dull and will accept any sh@t packaged nicely.

    • This analysis is devoid of deep thought. Of course its from a cadre. What the post was telling us is politicians left to their ways are the same. Let’s not trust in the goodness of people but build on strong institutions. Even Obama (or the Pope) under our current institutions will be a thief. ECL in his1.5 years in statehouse has only mentioned the word corruption once, he’s acted on none. UPND doesn’t pretend to be humble. We know their human weaknesses. Its up to us to create a strong nation .

    • Reporting on the report of other people’s works is not news. We read all that in the Post, so why is LT repeating Mmembe’s works???

    • STUPID CHANTING FROM THIEVES LIKE POST MMEMBE WHO HAS JUST RECEIVED A WALLET FULL OF MONEY FROM CORRUPT EDGAR LUNGU THRU INONGE WINA. NO MATTER HOW BAD-MOUTHED MMEMBE’S POST NEWSPAPER WILL BE AGAINST HH AND THE UPND TEAM, WE REMAIN RESOLVED TO VOTE FOR THEM SO THAT WE EFFECT REAL CHANGE IN ZAMBIA. ZAMBIA IS GOOD COUNTRY THAT DESERVES BETTER LEADERSHIP WHICH WE CAN ONLY GET FROM HH AND UPND TEAM. MMEMBE AND HIS POST ARE SELL OUTS WHO ARE NOW JUST YAPPING RUBBISH. ABASH POST MMEMBE! ABASH PF LUNGU KAMINAMINSA!

    • “We have misunderstood them in the past & attacked them unnecessarily” HH in reference to the Post. A gentleman’s saying. Only idyots like chakolwa & his pamafi who arrogantly say “advice is for me to take” will think the Post writing about them ninshi balefwaya ukwakufwila.

    • You are spot on Chanda. The post newspaper were right. The chaps in UPND are just there to amass more wealth. It is business first and country later. People like HH and GBM have just seen this as an opportunity to rip off the country of resources. This is the reason why UPND shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near state house. They are a bunch of white collar thieves

    • Isn’t it rich of PF to talk of tenderpreneurs when it is them who have blown $8 billion of Eurobonds on useless roads going nowhere? PF would never give tenders to Zambians who are not part of their fraud scheme of stealing from Zambians. One can speculate about people in UPND but as they have not been in govt yet, the real tenderpreneurs are the PFoolish scammers.
      #ChagwaMustFall
      #PFmustGo

    • One can understand Mmembe’s frustration at the lack of traction of his friend Wynter’s Rainbow Party. However, socialism has no future in Zambia or anywhere in the world. Venezuela is reeling under its own failed socialist experiment. Cuba has failed under socialism and has to be bailed out by USA. Mmembe is playing into PF’s hands just because his aunt, Inonge Wina, is Chagwa’s running mate.
      #ChagwaMustFall
      #PFmustGo

    • I DON’T THINK ZAMBIANS ARE THAT FUULISH TO VOTE FOR HH AND HIS UPND. AS THE POST HAS OBSERVED (ONLY TOO LATE), UPND IS A PARTY FULL OF WEEDS OF ALL TYPES STARTING FROM IT’S TOPMOST LEADER DOWN TO WHOEVER IS THE LOWEST IN THEIR HIERARCHY. ONE DOES NOT NEED TO BE A GENIUS TO KNOW (OR AT LEAST GUESS) WHAT UPND WOULD DO TO THE COUNTRIES STATE COFFERS ONCE ELECTED INTO POWER. THEY ARE SIMPLY A GROUP OF VULTURES WAITING FOR THE UNLIKELY MOMENT THAT THE ELEPHANT WILL DIE OF A BRUISE ON THE TRUNK. EVERY POLITICAL REJECT HAS BEEN WEEDED INTO UPND TO GO AND CONGREGATE WITH OTHER REJECTS.

  1. Hehehe….. too early to celebrate ba Sunday. It seems you are too quick to jump on any news which paints HH and UPND negative. I think Fred and the Post are just being cautious in this election not to heavily support one candidate as they learnt a lesson after supporting PF which has moved Zambia 25years backwards. Their editorial for yesterday still doesn’t take away the failures of PF and dumpen HH’s chances of winning. The desperation in the PF camp is very much evident in that HH has now become a chorus in every PF sentence. I am made to now believe that deep down your hearts, you are aware that you lost the 2015 elections no wonder you are now panicking? remember, any publicity for HH is good whether negative or positive and you are just helping him win this election through your…

    • @ Bench mark,aren’t u not looking into the telescope the wrong way ayi,ati pf has taken us backwards 25years,im confused,did zambia have a new constitution then,did it have more than 10 universities then,650 health posts, many new tard roads,new schools,youth and women empowerment funds,where u even born 25years ago pantu your imagination sounds tribish tribish hmmm kuti chaba limbi HH ni wiso

    • The so called achievments you are referring to are the reasons for the countrys s problems today.You don’t about infrastructural developments in a hapharzd manner.They need to be planned.And the only winners are the corrupt PF.

    • @3.1 Jo Breaker. Infrastructure development has to be planned. PF has borrowed $8Billion! Do we have new Infrastructure worth that much? PF have used infrastructure to steal money thru their Tenderpreneures! Roads that are supposed to cost $400,000 per Km are costing between $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 per Km! Where is the rest of the money going? Why is it that only PF cadres & ministers are getting Govt jobs? When did you ever hear ECL talking about fighting corruption?
      We are not stup1d! We know how to vote! Mmembe wants to push Wynter’s socialist agenda.

  2. Very true. Good analysis Sunday. You just have to stand next to (HH) for 2 minutes before you can smell his malicious character through his pungent cow dang odour.
    Mutati also ran away from him. Now Mmembe has run away. Next it’s GBM and Maureen, Nkombo.

    • Well said master Kudo…hh is canny he is in politics to boost his business. let these sluggish blind supporters keep on dreaming as we shall gladly usher in our one edgar chagwa lungu as our surrounding is filled with sontables

  3. Now we can have the pop corns and savour the exchange between Mmembe and hh, plus his many Kalusa disciples trying to defend the indefensible! Upnd know not what to clutch at as it has embraced filthy characters all around it!

  4. Lesa no Lesa. Who knew that the fake relationship between the Post and H H could one day get sour. ECL Prays to the living God. Thanks my Lord for fighting this battle for Zambia. HH is confused even failing to come up with arunning and yet surrounded by two big vice Presidents. Choose one so that you respond to the bell otherwise you don’t seem ready

  5. Sunday, good right up! So by your logic we should heed the Post’s advice because they know better. The Post also calls your leader a thief (stole clients money), violent (tolerant of thugs in party), incompetent, etc. I guess we should heed this advice too? Logical, no?

    • @ kaya ever heard of the term you shall know them by thier fruits,has Edgar been accused of theft and so much more,YES! My plea to u is very simple SONTA,sick and tired of always hearing ati we have proof we have proof,do u mean u have a bullet proof,now if it comes to HH mamamamama,benangu ma hp ex workers bagona na kwa Hakainde,that has nothing to even do with mines, those are the stories pa surface what more if we had to dig deeper,awe im scared,ine ndetina,im afraid of the truth about this guy

  6. There is nothing here…. this is true friendship. Fred will not shy away from telling HH his weakness and vice versa. This is how friendship should be. So once again you #### are empty tins making too much noise. No one said HH is perfect . He has his weakness but he is the most complete leader Zambia needs now. so go suck lemons!!!

  7. No one clearly knows what goes through that little twit’s twisted mind, and anyone (politician) who embraces him as a bedfellow is obviously also deluded! Any sensible human being should keep a good distance way from him. I personally would not touch him with a barge pole.

    Lishilu lya ku mwando…

  8. UPND, please answer that one about regrouping as Tenderpreneurs. You cannot hide from those facts just as you faled to hide from the accusations of only a tonga for UPND president, there is simply nowhere for you to hide anymore, the truth has 75come to.haunt you. I am no fan of the Post but in this editorial Mmembe simply stated what I have always said and what I have always believed in religiously. I have always marvelled at the thinking of Mmembe who changed his political opinion faster than a chameleon, but that does not change the bare truth about the UPND and its Tenderpreneurs. What is GBM’s business iS UPND? TELL US! And he is even HH’s running mate, wow, wonders shall never cease until Jesus comez to redeem us!

  9. PF were given a chance by the Zambian people to rule. PF has destroyed our economy (exchange rate K10.12/$ from K4.5/$; Inflation 22% from 6.7%; Interest rates 42% from 17%; GDP 3% from 6.5%). We will try UPND this time around. When they fail, we will remove them also. There is nothing that PF will tell us that we will listen to! PF IS FULL OF CORRUPT POLITICIANS. SOME MINISTERS ARE INVOLVED EVEN IN THE THEFT OF THE BLACK MOUNTAIN SLAG WITHOUT SHAME WHILE OTHERS ARE BEING PAID HUGE SUMS OF MONEY BY CHINESE COMPANIES FOR MAKING DECISIONS THEY ARE ALREADY EMPLOYED TO MAKE. UNDER PF IT IS TOTAL LOOTING! PF has completely failed. PF KUYA BEBELE.

    • Give us your take about UPND’s lack of spine to fight, nay just talk about, corruption vis-à-vis ‘ordinary grouping of Crooks and Tenderpreneurs’. Remember this is NOT about PF but about the party that you so dearly support. Come out and defend it, please!

      Stop being ‘Dodgy’…!

    • @ bwembya I dont understand vama inflation rate exchange and interest rate,what I simply know is nshima,yes wechikoti, ubwembya,nshima 5fingers is what I observe,so wen I realise im buying my mealie meal cheaper than botwana,malawi,angola,congo,Zimbabwe, mozambique,nigeria,south africa, I think to myself man the grass isn’t greener on the other side,the other countries really wish they had my simba grass,wapitisapo naka loan mower boi ninshi ni sparkly sparkly over here,hope u guys have your voters cards,pantu I checked my registration with ecz via text msg,they told me im eligible to vote,I was so touched and humbled at thier approval

  10. Fred himself is a tenderpreneur who benefited from PF government support for his transport business and advertising business in his newspaper! Everything said done, PF is still the worst party to have ever formed government in Zambia with potential to drive this country to the dark ages if not stopped! We must stop them on 11 August 16!

  11. @ whatsapp, ati HH is the most complete leader? What have you smoked? Let me remind you, the topic is about HH and his fellow Tenderpreneur cohorts. Is your memory pin like that you have already forgotten what the rest of us normal humans are reading and discussing just now?
    Look here, HH has been exposed for what he actually is: a Tenderpreneur, a dodgy crook, same as GBM and Guy Scot. Forewarned is forearmed! If that is not true about HH, please please please tell us what GBM is doing in UPND, as vice president! and as running mate! and as alleged criminal facing criminal charges in court! and like or as a common criminal sleeping in police cells in Lusaka and Ndola! And with HH as an ally, is it not about birds of a feather flocking together!

  12. I am not a fan of the Post but I fully support Fred Mmembe’s editorial of 24th May 2016. Tenderpreneurs and crooks have regrouped in UPND. These are very greedy and selfish individuals who want to grab each and every lucrative tender from Govt leaving no chance to other Zambians. They would want to recoup every ngwee they are selfishly dishing out in their quest to ‘buy off’ unsuspecting vulnerable Zambians’ votes. In unlikely event that UPND won the election it will be those greedy and selfish individuals in UPND to benefit personally and not the nation. Why is it that people like GBM, Sampa, Guy Scott and company have joined their fellow tenderprenuer, HH? It’s to grab lucrative tenders by govt. The current govt has decided to award tenders evenly to benefit many Zambians but this…

  13. I’m reading 2 different dates: 24 May 2016 and 26 January 2016… which date was the actual one from which the snippet were extracted?

    For balanced debate, the writer should have highlighted what The Post newspapers and Fred M’membe are saying about Edgar Lungu… then we can compare fairly. Otherwise as neutral observers we could only assume bias.

  14. I did not imagine once that Mmembe could be bought, I have not read the editorial myself but reading from the comments, it is clear that Mmembe has become a PF cadre all of a sudden. He has been bought. Now Lungu will sit and relax , he has done his job, it will be HH versus the Post. Mmembe will not face anymore persecution from PF Government.

  15. @ Macgyver, you got it all wrong as all UPND cadres do when faced with defeat. As far as us pro-Edgar majority are concerned, both Mmembe and HH and even Kabimba are obnoxious crooks of the obnoxious cartel. If one crook Mmembe condemns a fellow crook a Tenderpreneur HH Gbm, we can only watch for that is what crooks ultimately do. For us despite the undeniable truth in Mmembe’s editorial he still remains an obnoxious cartel. Coming to the issue of being bought, are you telling us that HH was bought by Mmembe when HH apologised like a little puppy? Or is it HH who had bought Mmembe to support him? That could explain the inexplicable behaviour of Scot, GBM, Sampa, mulenga to join HH and it agrees with Mmembe’s explanation for the unholy alliance of dogy crooks and Tenderpreneurs. By the…

  16. Easy!! The post is doing all this because membe thinks the upnd wl lose and doesn’t want to side wth a losing team but it’s gonna be a hell of a shock for hm

  17. By the way if you read the Post regularly it is not the first time that Mmembe has gone to town on HH. A few weeks ago Mmembe mocked HH for being bankrupt morally and ideologically which again is a fact. According to Mmembe in that editorial voting for HH would be the same as jumping from the frying pan into the fire. Does that sound like Edgar has bought Mmembe? NO! So just enjoy the unholy alliance with HHs newly found girlfriend Mmembe and leave our innocent Edgar out of your misery, its the price that all you crooks pay.

  18. This has been our concern as longtime UPND members. Our Party has been hijacked and HH is looking on. If Sata were to awaken and join a UPND Rally today, he would think HH has defected to UPND! We condemned Mulenga Satas sudden wealth, GBMs donination of almost all Tenders at ZESCO and Ministry of Defence. We rose up to support BY Mwila when GBM denied his evacuation by refusing landing rights to an Air Ambulance etc etc. The UPND HH has now is not what Mazoka left. HH we need our party back !!

  19. As I have always said, HH will always shoot himself in the foot at critical times. His biggest weaknesses are1. Childishness 2. Ambition and hunger for state house 3. Lack of principles or sense of morality 4. Telling lies 5. Never accepting responsibility 6. Misplaced overconfidence 7. Having cadres who cannot tell him the truth 8. Thinking that money and wisdom are the same 9. The sum of 1 to 8= underfive thinking

  20. When Sata appointed Judge Ngoma as Security Manager at ZESCO we all condemnef this ‘thug’ but on whose security detail is Judge Ngoma now ? I wont say anything on Ruth Mbandu’s murder coz we commented on it but we dare not raise the issue as UPND coz HH is dining with the enemy ! I dont see us winning Aug 11 coz its like PF competing against PF. What corruption will we fight when GBM who bulldozed his way to any Defence or ZESCO contract is almost becoming our Vice President. God forbid if HH dies or something who takes over ?……His Excellency GBM ! Will he even consider Nkombo and company ? Fellow UPND lets abandon HH if he picks any ex-PF az runing mate coz these thugs cant understand how far we have come, no they cant !!!!

  21. And thank you Sunday Chanda for that well thought out article on HH and Mmembe, it is simply brilliant and punchy as you can see from the comments of UPND cadres reflecting an irreversible sense of despair,

  22. So ba UPND, Mmembe has raised his price, he has all the facts and truth on HH, this was just a dyonko of what he knows about HH. So what more are you prepared to pay him now to win his silence and support for the remaining 78 days.
    That’s the price you pay for playing with the black mamba.

  23. Okay UPND you have been tortured enough. I will take a break, if you promise to stop scandalising and blaming our Edgar for your own self inflicted problems.

  24. God is Almighty!!!HH’S DESPERATION FOR STATE HOUSE IS MAKING HIM LOOK LIKE A F00L!!!surely who in Zambia doesnt know that Fred M’membe and his post newspaper support Wynter Kabimba?ALL WISE ZAMBIANS KNEW THAT HH CANNOT BE SUPPORTED BY FRED M’MEMBE!!NOW AFTER YESTERDAY’S EDITORIAL COMMENT,HH IS A BIGGEST LOSER!!!wise Edgar Lungu has clearly refused to be used by the cartel (fred m’membe and his team)!!!SO THINGS KEEP ON GETTING BETTER AND BETTER FOR PF IN 2016!!!”UMUNTU NI LUNGU-2016!!!”GO PF GO!!

  25. The bottomline of the Post editorial is in the last sentence: A call for HH to start addressing corruption as a campaign message as well as manage those joining him when he forms government. Full stop. The rest is Just Mmembe thesis.

    • I agree. Mmembe is acknowledging who is forming govt next. He wants some action from the next govt. This is how he is crying out.
      #ChagwaMustFall
      #PFmustGo

  26. I have always said, HH has never been in government voting for him would be a mistake. Mmembe knows this and before HH could even prepare for his speech, Mmembe, turns round 360 degrees reminding Zambian to be ware of black mamba. That Zambians, remain with Edgar, he is a better angel than HH. Mmembe is a genius he even calls HH a tenderprenuer. Exactly my fair about HH has been.He never means well for Zambia. You cannot be a presidential candidate for Mazoka’s party from the blues. Him Mazoka had left Patrick Chisanga, Sakwiba Sikota, Henry Mtonga, but because of Tongalization of the party, from the blues a tenderprenuer appears. Sata despite all his weaknesses left Edgar in charge. And the spirit of God listened to him and said, am taking away your life, but in your spirit I will give…

  27. Lusaka Times you are pathetic. You have censored my postings. Why should care what the post writes about HH? Why don’t you come up with your own stories. What is your purpose? You are useless paper and most of the articles you write are trash and you are a PF cader. If this was a print paper nobody would buy.

  28. BLOOD SUCKER LUNGU SHOULD GO TO HELL WHERE HE BELONGS. THIS FOREIGNER WILL NEVER RULE ZAMBIA AFTER AUGUST 14. STUPID CHANTING FROM THIEVES LIKE POST MMEMBE WHO HAS JUST RECEIVED A WALLET FULL OF MONEY FROM CORRUPT EDGAR LUNGU THRU INONGE WINA. NO MATTER HOW BAD-MOUTHED MMEMBE’S POST NEWSPAPER WILL BE AGAINST HH AND THE UPND TEAM, WE REMAIN RESOLVED TO VOTE FOR THEM SO THAT WE EFFECT REAL CHANGE IN ZAMBIA. ZAMBIA IS GOOD COUNTRY THAT DESERVES BETTER LEADERSHIP WHICH WE CAN ONLY GET FROM HH AND UPND TEAM. MMEMBE AND HIS POST ARE SELL OUTS WHO ARE NOW JUST YAPPING RUBBISH. ABASH POST MMEMBE! ABASH PF LUNGU KAMINAMINSA!

  29. scot,sampa and mulenga’s partnership with hh is not based on any moral principles other than their overblown egos and personal hatred for ecl. once more the post has just seen through and exposed hh’s under five politics.

  30. Badala ba hakainde this one is not yours as well sorry omunene I feel so sorry for you I know how much u want to be president even going to the extent of building your own state house no wonder you cried that bandibida forgetting that people like me never voted for you. Even this time there are many who have resolved not to vote for you so don’t insult ecz.

  31. That’s Meembe trying to promote his friends party Rainbow. The party which struggled to raise the required supporters in 10 provinces

  32. Sunday Chanda is a fool and an matuer in politics. In politics there are no permanent friends or enemies but permanent interests and alliances. RB and Lungu are in an alliance to serve their interests on a “Wako niwako” basis. As they say birds of the same feathers flock together.

  33. But not long ago the Lucifer’s File and the Freemasonry were like lock and key. So it’s true that like poles dispel, yeah! Okay one did not fit into the other. What a paradox!What a short-lived marriage of convenience. On the other hand, what a party! even the Lucifer’s file can not support it or was the File bent at ruining HH’s, 360 degrees turned from Kambela’s original, UPND from the inside out paving way for the File’s Rainbow Party. We shall only wait and watch this space! It can’t go without mention though that HH’s UPND has managed to turn Radio Phoenix, Muvi TV and a few cash hungry media houses into their hardcore supporters, File has just realized.

  34. The paper that digs deeper at play. Tell us more about this gathering of run away people who failed to convince EHL they had better ways to govern but decided to go and cause confusion in UPND. After the elections they shall start again forming parties because these are people who are not ready to be followers.
