Outspoken staunch PF supported Sunday Chanda’s hopes of being a Member of Parliament has been dealt a big blow after former Police Inspector General Martin Malama was picked ahead of him to stand on the PF ticket.

Mr Chilufya had campaigned and applied to be adopted to stand in Kanchibiya Constituency but the party’s Central Committee opted for the former police boss..

PF Member Sunday Chanda says he will not abandon the party even after he was not adopted to stand as Member of Parliament for Kanchibiya constituency.

The PF Central Committee has opted for Former Inspector General of Police Dr Martin Malama to stand as MP for Kanchibiya constituency in Mpika.

As you may be aware, I had expressed my interests to serve the people of Kanchibiya by offering myself for adoption to the party I belong to, the Patriotic Front(PF).

“Let me mention that I have refused to give in to voices calling on me to stand as an Independent candidate. I have also made it clear that I am not defecting from PF. I’m going back to the Presidential Campaign to ensure Zambia elects the best man on 11th August 2016- President Edgar Lungu,” Mr Chanda said.

He said the adoption process has made him learn and grow and that it brought him in constant touch with the hopes and aspirations of the people.

“The race saw many other competitors and I’m proud that my team and I put up a great on-the-ground campaign in Kanchibiya. After all is said and done, Central Committee sat to decide who was ideally suited to serve the people of Kanchibiya and it was not to be me,” he said.

“I have just made a call on my elder brother, PF’s adopted candidate for Kanchibiya and former IG Dr. Martin Malama to congratulate him and assured him of my availability to ensure we maximise the voter turn-out for President Edgar Lungu.”

“The race was less about me and more about the President and I’ll remain true to that objective. It’s not a great feeling to let go of Kanchibiya in order for my brother Dr. Malama to operate effectively as he represents the interests of the Party. It’s a painful experience for me, my team and supporters but maybe it wasn’t meant to be at this point,” he said.

“Thank you for all the faith and confidence you had in me. I have grown and learnt a lot on this journey.”

    • Outspoken staunch PF supported Sunday Chanda’s of being a Member of Parliament in the Parliament….. LT what’s the meaning of this sentence?……. Anyway Sunday Chanda is very disappointed and hate but only time will tell….. He is just an empty tin who is not supposed to be allowed anywhere near the vicinity of Parliament.

    • If Chanda was Kudos, he would have insulted and used unpalatables. Kudos is a silent burner. I believe he is a good pretender who caries himself as a social Santa in the neighbourhood. Loved by unsuspecting people but his true colours show during social media and LT posting. He could be a pastor by day and a vampire by night. A church mouse is he but with a rabied bite. He is capable of killing his wife and have the in-laws sympathize with him and condemn the victim. A gonga is he. I pitty the foo!.

    • “Let me mention that I have refused to give in to voices calling on me to stand as an Independent candidate” end of quote… which Voices are you talking about apart from your own voice Ba Chanda……. Dr Malama showed that is not just the best contender for that seat under PF but far beyond the rest of you Quacks

    • The PF have already started losing elections? What kind of MPs are these.. Sunday Chanda as MP, not in Mpika baba

    • At the race was not all about me but more to the president,this why african politicians mindset need to change.the race should be more to the pipo and not the president.

    • Sonta po? As if its Sata’s or Lazy Lungu’s money to pay back….what folly…do you know the role of a government, do you know role of a Police man or the role of a Postman?

    • Ine na sonta po efyo wabomba Kudos-Lungu!

    • Mr Chanda you’re such a civilised politician – so rare in this part of the world. Show them how its done!

    • THE LEVEL OF JUDGEMENT OF OUR SO CALLED INTELLECTUALS IN NOT ONLY SHOCKING BUT APPALLING. I CAN’T UNDERSTAND HOW A PERSON OF THE LEVEL OF DR. MALAMA CAN APPLY TO STAND ON PF TICKET WITH HIS MIND OPEN? PEOPLE LIKE EVANS CHIBILITI TO SUPPORT PF BUFFLES A NORMAL THINKING MIND. IT EXPLAINS WHY ZAMBIA IS POOR WHILE HAVING SO MUCH RESOURCES. IT’S LIKE DRC, ANGOLA AND MOZAMBIQUE. PEOPLE ARE JUST NORMAL BUT FU..LI..SHI!.

    • The greatest day Zambia will ever have is when this PF government will be kicked out of power. Take it from me, every day they are in government is one more day the country sinks deeper and deeper in guagmire.

      Lungu continues to spend money the nation does not have and keeps driving it into deeper debt just like what Mugabe did to Zimbabwe.

      I declare there is an economic liberation war of Zambia I invite you to enlist in the Economic Liberation Army with you NRC as gun and Voters Card as ammunition.

      The enemies are PF plunderers and beneficiaries of the Lungu-Rupiah corrupt PF system. Take no prisoners, slay them massively.

    • Oh oh oh oh Sunday ba mushapo?? It was becoz he was stuffing utu masuku mu nsekete – efilya utu matobo twa tuntumana!!

      Sunday, mune, you should be happy – ala pamaFi tapali eko ileya!!

      Vote wisely 11/8/2016!! Vote Zambia FORWARD!! Vote UPND!! Abantu baya!!

      #chagwamustfall!! PamaFikuyabebele!!

      Everyone remember – Go to your polling station – STAY THERE TILL VOTES ARE COUNTED – DON’T ALLOW Gen “Chisense” & his Helicopters to remove Ballot boxes before they are counted – Form a HUMAN SHIELD – don’t let these thieves STEAL OUR VOTES – IT IS TIME TO SHOW WE ARE NOT DOCILE!!!

      I thank you!!

    • Khikikiki…continue conforting yourself iwe ka Chanda ntwenu with a sick d!ick head…!!!

    • Sonta efyo PF yonawila;
      1. economy
      2. families because of increase poverty
      3. kwacha
      4. ubulimi

    • But this Mr Kudo, can’t you read in between the lines that your Sunday Chanda is complaining bitterly? Did you do Literature at school? He is only sticking with the PF because of the money which is flowing in the Party and to protect his “wife” who is a diplomat somewhere in Europe.

    • Malama vibrating on PF ticket shows why these useless civil servants are mere party cadres. No wonder the Police Force (PF) are harassing the opposition. PF are masquerading as professional civil servants when they are just cadres with no morals and integrity.

      #PFmustGo

  1. MMD is a dead party, UPND is a regional dictatorship, FDD is too small. The new Democracy is Patriotic Front (PF) Peaceful Friends

  2. Dr Malama cleared the criminals off the streets, he is a very good performer and this is a winning pick by the PF. I see PF controlling 90% of Parliament for the next 5 years.

  3. Glad to hear this my young brother. Here is unsolicited advise to all aspirants and active political machines alike, service to the nation is not preserved for political office only.

  4. Well done Sunday. This is democratic maturity not the nonsense we are seeing with pipo like MSata, Mumba and other related under5s. Kolopa

  5. The UPND grass roots are crying to Hap Hazard (HH) to respect their decision for MPs. Kaponya (HH) has gone full throttle imposing Mulenga Sata, Charlotte Scott and Sibongile GBM for Parliamentary polls, when the UPND grass roots have been busy working for many years to coordinate UPND candidates. Now their dictator is causing the grass roots to abandon UPND. UPND is disintegrating Sonta po!

    • iwe cicolor! talk about PF not each you open your dirty mouth it is UPND coming out. grow up you coward! waba itole maso yobe.

    • @UPND cadre the confusion in UPND is working to our advantage. Here in PF we respect the grass roots that’s why we are winning. Now if Kaponya (HH) can’t respect the grass roots, they won’t campaign for UPND and this defeat will be the worst (HH) has ever encountered. He might hang himself in August so we are ready to give him a thick rope to end his miserable life

    • O Sovereign LORD, according to Psalm 94:9,10a, You that planted the ear, won’t hear? You that formed the eye, shall You not see? Jehovah-Gibbor you see and hear the persons who blog. Lord God, according to Deut 19, a false witness suffers the same punishment which he inflicts upon the person he accused. Great Father of glory, pure Father of light I call Proverbs 19:5,9 and decree that you punish and destroy false witnesses who spread false rumors, slanders, manipulators, and liars. Heavenly Father according to Proverbs 10:18 and Deut 19:16 I affirm that you deal very harshly with the wicked false witness that hideth hatred with lying lips, and uttereth slander. Father God, execute the judgment of Your infallible Word. Bury and hang them wicked liars and haters, as per Korah and…

    • I affirm that you deal very harshly with the wicked false witness that hideth hatred with lying lips, and uttereth slander. Father God, execute the judgment of Your infallible Word. Bury and hang them wicked liars and haters, as per Korah and his cohorts and Haman. Lord those that gather themselves together against the soul of HH and his campaign, smite them with everlasting afflication according to Psalm 109. Lord, you are the defence and rock of refuge of HH. Lord bring upon the accusers of HH their own iniquity, and cut them off in their own wickedness as per Psalms 94:23.

    • Iwe Kambwili disguising as Me Kudos, do you listen to the news on your own station (ZNBC) at all. Why are there demonstrations all over the country over your nominations from the grassroots if you are for the grassroots?

  6. Brother Chanda, You are the kind of leaders we want in PF. Well,
    You are not like guy Scotland, and kilometer sampa. Support your brother MM, and president LUNGU

  7. Why has Maureen left Kaponya (HH) this year? Is she thinking of jumping ship to PF? Why isn’t Canicius Banda actively campaigning for UPND? Why has Felix Mutati abandoned UPND this year? Why has Dr Christine Kaseba Sata refused to join UPND? These are questions we voters must ask ourselves

  8. MR SUNDAY CHANDA, THAT IS BEING A VERY MATURE POLITICIAN. YOU HAVE SET AN EXAMPLE. NOT BEING ADOPTED DOES NOT MEAN DEFECTION TO ANOTHER PARTY. IT MEAN ONLY ONE PERSON IN ONE PARTICULAR POLITICAL PARTY CAN BE ADOPTED AT A TIME AND THOSE NOT ADOPTED SHOULD BE PRINCIPLED ENOUGH TO SUPPORT THE ADOPTED MEMBER. FOR MEAN YOU ARE THE WINNER AND GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT. PEOPLE SHOULD JUST CONSIDER HOW LONG THE LATE PRESIDENT MICHAEL CHILUFYA SATA WAITED TO BE ELECTED TO PRESIDENCY. CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU. I HOPE OTHERS WILL EMULATE YOUR POSITIVE APPROACH TO POLITICS WHICH IS NOT NORMALLY IN AFRICANS.

  9. Sunday Chanda – you are a natural loser who was just taking chances anyway! SONTAPO the best thing that you have ever done!! Just singing the praise Lungu hymns so that he doesn’t drop you from the campaign team like he did to Emmanuel Mwamba.
    RB is now deeply embedded and very soon you will find yourself on the sidelines – you will need make appointments to see Lungu… Your free rides ended immediately you grew wings and thought you could be an MP like Mwamba. RB planted his Impis in your previous job when you went with your wild dreams of being a mere MP.
    Remember, this set back was your ka Dyonko and a prelude to the Mighty Loss you will suffer on 12 August 2016. You should get 10 packs of tissues to wipe off your tears…. GBM; Sata; Sampa; The 2 Scotts, Nkombo; CBanda, HH,…

  10. Remember, this set back was your ka Dyonko and a prelude to the Mighty Loss you will suffer on 12 August 2016. You should get 10 packs of tissues to wipe off your tears…. GBM; Sata; Sampa; The 2 Scotts, Nkombo; CBanda, HH, Nalumango; Kaseba-Sata; Mwanawasa; Andrew Banda; Musokotwane; Sichinga; etc are all working to remove you jokers and throw you in the rubbish bin so that Zambia can start afresh….then that is when you will cry like a baby when you face the reality you are still pushing away!!

    • The danger to Zambian democracy is that HH and UPND have allowed themselves to be molested by tribal gangs masquerading as politicians. Is it an exaggeration that all members of Zambian cartel Mafioso are now associated with UPND party because they perceive the party a fortress in which tribalism and persecution of Bemba and eastern province people is openly tolerated. Now with their impunity they don’t even mind being exposed as tribalists. I’m glad to announce that the bones of FTJ and those that died while being persecuted between 2001 – 2008 will rise up on 11th August 2016 to defeat the cartel once more.

    • Sonta eko watwala $8 billion Euro bond.PF have to be reminded that they have borrowed collosal sums in our name and they have failed to account for it.

  11. Why are people congratulating him? It’s a NO-BRAINER; We know and he also knows that he can’t win the Kanchibiya seat if he sands as an Independent or on any other party ticket other than PF. Sunday Chanda is a crook. There’s no need to even congratulate him for “his decision”. The last thing we need in our politics is to have crooks of Sunday’s calibre in our Parliament regardless of political party. I call upon ALL political parties to adopt people with impeccable track record. On this occasion, I would like to congratulate PF for shunting this crook and sending him political oblivion. We done PF and I wish Dr Malama all the best.

    • I agree with you.Sunday Chanda is a political demagogue who deserves no sympathy from any right thinking Zambian.Even that group of sycophants called PF MCC did not see anything of political value in this imbecile and thats a huge red flag for him.

  12. The pamafi party is going no where and no sane person can vote for the 2016 most incompetent and idio.tic president of the millennium

  13. Broof ther Sunday we need people who are selfless, patriotic and self-serving. There is a lot of work to do in PF and Zambia, I applied for Malole constituency in Mungwi district but not adopted for I know its one person at a time therefore I am PF and campaign for PF. We can not be nomads wandering from one political party to another. Humility is important if we are to appreciate the giftedness of other people in our country and our party PF.

  14. We the sontologists will just be sonting on all the sontables we ‘ve accomplished. If it’s going to be too much for you to comprehend we will just do what we call sontagration. Watch out as we take the lead

    • we also want you to sontagrate where you have put the money from the euro bond you borrowed on our behalf, mwatubika munkongole.
      sonta, uko watwala ulupiya wakongola

  15. This is how Politicians should behave, this is truly doing politics out of conviction and not looking for opportunities.
    Thumbs up for Sunday Chanda !!
