It was a mistake for Hakainde Hichilema to make Geoffrey Bwalya Mwamba (GBM)-an insulting and violent person with a propensity to battering anyone who does not agree with him, including his wife, says Non-Governmental Organisation Coordinating Council (NGOCC) Chairperson Sarah Longwe-his running mate.
Ms Longwe said GBM’s personal character was a danger which the country could not risk taking.
Speaking in an interview Ms Longwe said Mr. Mwamba should never be allowed to take up any leadership position in Zambia.
She said Mr. Mwamba was one person who would never change from his violent behaviour.
“We have said it over and over again that GBM is a batterer who can’t lead the country because he’s a threat to women, and anyone who crosses his path.”
“He has apologised several times but even the apology is questionable, because how many times has he apologised to his wife after he’s beaten her? He does it over and over again,” she said.
And Ms Longwe has reiterated the need to support women vying for various positions in next month’s general elections.
Ms. Longwe said that the women’s movement had initiated various campaigns strategies for all female candidates in the elections.
She observed that women were good leaders and would contribute massively to the development of the country if given a chance.
“We are supporting women who are participating in the elections at all levels. So far, we have issued posters and stickers which we are giving to various people. We also go in communities to encourage people to vote and support women,” Ms. Longwe said.
Meanwhile, Ms. Longwe has expressed sadness on the low number of women participating in this year’s general elections.
She said despite efforts to increase the number of women participation in elections, the number had remained marginally low.
“We are very unhappy that there are very few women participating in this year’s general elections. The percentages are alarming and this is before the election.
“So far the female Members of Parliament that have been nominated are 106, out of 661 which is 6 percent, for the ward councillors its only 415 which is 9 percent out of 4566 and for mayors its only 11 percent, only 40 women have been nominated out of 331. We are very disappointed,” she said.
Mrs. Longwe,
How come you are silent about presence of CONVICTED RAPIST of MINOR sharing platform with CONVICTED EMBEZZLER?
Irrelevant or self induced laps of memory?
@Zenj, what the f###$$@k are you writing about? If it is Kanene, just write Kanene. If its Kaizer Zulu beating up girls at filling station, just mention his ass.
That is a public manifest of dangerous incompetency driven by immaturity, impulsiveness, desperation, and lack of informed decision making leadership. Its synonymous with messianic thinking amateur in-chief politicians. As far as Hichilema is concerned, he has made a wises and safest decision in a chauvinist. He believes that to be GBV Chief, is honorable and deserving to be executive leadership of our national state. That is spitting right in the face of girl child whom he expect to vote them in.
@ Nostradamus,
There are so many PF crooks that I cannot remember theirs names!!!
It is almost like old fashion Telephone Directory with more than 600 pages.
She speaking as thought the UPND will win the elections. Maybe there is something she knows that we don’t.
Justifying the wife beater
A very sexist person you are woman.
CONVICTED MEANS SOMEONE HAS PAID FOR HIS/HER SINS AND NO LONGER HAS TO PAY HOR WHAT HE/SHE HAS ALREADY PAID FOR. AND IF YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT KANENE, HIS CASE WAS MORE OR LESS JUDGED BY TU NGOs BEFORE HE EVEN WENT INTO COURT.
WHEN GBM WAS APPOINTED BY HIS CONFUSED PRESIDENT AS RUNNING MATE WE NEVER HEAD UTUNTEMBA -NGOs ASKING HH TO WITHDRAW HIS APPOINTMENT. ALL THESE WE ARE HEARING TODAY ARE BECAUSE CONGO HAS CONVICTED AND JAILED KOFI OLOMIDE. IN FACT IT WAS ECL AND PF WHO HAS BEEN COMPLAINING ON BEHALF OF MOSTLY WOMEN, OTHER PEOPLE IN GENERAL. MWILABEPO BUFI BA NGOs.
The light at the end of the tunnel is quickly fading off for HH. We knew this will happen. It took a little longer, but it has now happened. No right thinking person can vote for HH knowing GBM may end up being our president. Let us all stop GBV by giving Lungu and Bo Inonge our votes. Let us do it for our children.
@ Peter
What it means PARDONED by another CONVICTED?
And after been PARDONED after serving less than 1/3 of sentence, he was appointed by CONVICTED EMBEZZLER to be “AMBASSADOR” against GBV???
Please, stop insulting human intelligence. If you are condoning RAPE of a MINOR, you are the same scum as the CONVICTED RAPIST.
Shame on you!!!
USELESS NGOS THAT ONLY POPS UP LIKE DEW IN THE MORNING BUT GONE IN A FEW MOMENT. WHERE WAS THIS WOMAN WHEN KANENE ASSAULTED MANY TIMES ONE OF HIS WIVES, WHEN A WOMAN WAS STRIPPED NAKED, WHEN A WOMAN WAS SHORT, WHEN THE POLICE REFUSED TO GIVE A MEDICAL REPORT TO ALLOW A KASAMA WOMAN WHO WAS BATTERED BY POLICE FOR SUPPORTING UPND GO O THE HOSPITAL. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE NGOS HAVE ALSO BEEN TURNED TO PF CADRES.
Dull…that guy is not a RUNNING MATE nor is he standing for any position…That is not a worthwhile comparison at all….BOLA NAIKOSA FYE!
Madam Longwe.
How about a husband snatcher? Are you in order to support her just because she woman seeking to be elected or the woman whose husband she snatched is less important than Nawakwi? Please madam, don’t make your NGO look like it’s for the rich women friends while the less known ones should suffer in silence.
Another hungry fo0l asking for crumbs falling off Chagwa’s table.
Sarah Longwe, you are now demonstrating how UN-USEFUL your “kantemba”NGO is to Society – IF YOU FEEL VERY STRONGLY ABOUT HARM TO WOMEN, go ONE TO ONE WITH CHAGWA challenge him on the following, as COMMANDER IN CHIEF, he just has to crack his famous BIG WHIP to bring justice to the following:
1] Has he reimbursed the poor widow whom he embezzled, NOW THAT HE IS A MILLIONAIRE ON THE BACK OF ZAMBIAN TAX PAYERS????
2] The young girl who was stripped naked by thugs from a party whom we all know, anyone apprehended???
3] The kapokola who SHOT Mapenzi, making her son an orphan, & whose ORDERS THAT Kapokola was following??
4] The kapokola who through a teargas canister almost killing GBM’s sister, due to her asthma,anyone apprehended????
Before you complain about GBM, yes he was…
… yes he was cautioned by police if I remember well, but case was withdrawn, public prosecutor didn’t push it – on those grounds, HH has felt it prudent to ask him to be running mate.
IF YOU COME BACK WITH SOME CONCRETE ANSWERS, you might just be able to redeem your NGO, BUT UNFORTUNATELY, may NOT REDEEM your PERSONAL CREDIBILITY – just join “Lungu’s so-called “Christians!!”
Vote WISELY 11/8/2016!! Vote ZAMBIA FORWARD!! VOTE UPND!!
#chagwamustfall!! #PamaFikuyabebele!!
I thank you!!
Well said mama. GBM is the worst thing to happen to Zambia
The funny thing is that this fat **** GBM was Defence minister and these organisations were quiet…now they start making noise again …lets be consistent if you want to be relevant.
Finally, the NGOs are waking up to the reality of GBM becoming vice president of Zambia. This should have happened just after he was chosen. But its better late than never. Worst decision by HH ever.
You cant do a Koffi Olomide on GBM. In reverse, we’ll do a koffi olomide on PF. Majority of voters are wife beaters, its common in zambia. Im sure each one of us has wife beater in there family. GBM is a hero in the world of kaponyas. Infact HH will get more votes than he did before because of PF failing the people and GBM’s muscle.
It was a mistake for your father not to pullout
Sara. Keep that voice loud. A man who disrespects women has no place in Govt. HH will sink with GBM.
Women’s Rights are Human Rights.
GBM was acting president under MHSRP you did not have any problem with it,this looks like your usual tribalism because you are only seeing this after he joined the person you would not like to be president.Your choice president has gone as far as prison to pick his mps,LIATO PF candidate kaoma,Masumba mufumbwe etc here on the kopala all known criminals are PF this does not bother you but the successful GBM does,what a shame for a person of your standing in society.
I agree with ba Longwe 200%. The poor choice of running of GBM will be a big advantage to ECL. Who would want chi GBM idi.ot to be vice president & possibly president of Zambia? I guess only Tongas 4 selfish reasons. So Lungu alewina easily in round 1
SHE HAS BEEN PAID A HUGE AMOUNT OF MONEY BY INONGE TO CAMPAIGN FOR THE PF. WHO H.H. OR LUNGU CHOOSE AS THEIR RUNNING MATE IS NOT FOR HER TO HOLD PRESS CONFERENCES ABOUT. WHY IS SHE NOT TALKING ABOUT EDITH WHO HAS JOINED THE PF TO TAKE OVER INONGE S POSITION?
Madam Longwe, where have you been all this time since this woman abuser was appointed Under 5 mate?
We know it was a big mistake to use GBM. But mistake was not because he fights with wife, whom he loves.
Mistake was that Edith Nawakwi, the only work under HH.
Now Nawakwi want to go and chess Bo Inonge and become Vice to the losing Edgar.
Vice-president is not immortal, GBM will be replaced in no time. What we want is to win elections in 1st round.
Longwe is a PF supporter who had nothing to say when GBM was battering his wife as a Minister in PF. Now she is finding a good reason to dig at UPND. She should be transparent enough to say that she is voting for her tribal mates in PF.
Commenting out of ignorance. According to the new Constitution, the tenure of office of a Running Mate is 5 years. They can never be removed until the next general elections.
I hope GBM reads these messages about being replaced in NO TIME! We knew from the beginning that Kalusa is simply using GBV for tribe balancing while he has no confidence in GBV and will either have him eliminated or impeach GBV after winning elections or just outright take a bill to parliament so that he replaces GBV once he has won the elections.
Everybody beware of the looming doomsday if UPND by some miracle won!
The mistake was induced. Everybody makes mistakes, mistakes are there to learn from. Thanks Sara.
Sara looks like a daughter of Broken Hill Man and because of that she is thinking in reverse. I think Father Bwalya spent a Dununa night with her. She can’t even close the mouth. Yubaba nthenda ya Dununa. Remember Frank Bwalya is a starved stallion.
these women movements are so annoying on their selective responses to women issues! a woman is shot dead in Chawama…they are quiet A woman is undressed naked in Lusaka they are quiet….. “Therapist” is rapping in front of the Republican President as he campaigns they are watching….. since women are encouraged by women to go and vote for women I am also going to encourage men to vote for men candidates also that there is 50~50 gender balance
@Careless Whisper, comment right on! You only spoiled it with the 50-50 whatever. All Zambians, regardless of gender, should be encouraged to participate in electing the people who will running the country as well as participate as candidates. As for these frustrated selective women, we all know which side of their bread is buttered.
Coming from Sara Longwe, the Women Movement Chief Hater of PF and Edgar Lungu, is really a huge blow to HH’s leadership skills and decision making. Even his supporters like Sara feel late down on Under 5’s desperation for Plot 1. It is clear she is definitely not voting for the HH-GBV ticket, oh sorry I meant to write HH GBM ticket
HH should have known the negative reaction to appointing GBM. I think he might have even been advised by his people but chose to ignore them. Also, the most annoying thing, is that all his interviews on radio and other fora, no one has bothered to bring up the GBM violence issue. He needs to explain his thinking behind this appointment.
@MyZambia why should it take you so long to realsie that HH is a very stubborn Mr Know It All!…am afraid if he were to be President, GOD forbid, he would be bull dozing his way…niwa chabe chabe mambala…just as recent as last weekend, he was busy talking about ‘machende” in front of school kids, women and old folks at a rally in Choma. Instead of bringing our real issues! Uyu munthu azafunta out of bitterness! What a lost cause!
Pathetic [email protected] you have made my day. I do not understand the selection of words by the UPND speakers at these rallies.
HH was never destined to become president of Zambia. Full Stop. Hence his so many “mistakes” including the one of appointing the woman molester as his “violence” mate. It is not by coincidence, but divine intervention…
When GBM was in PF no one condemned his actions when he beat Chama. Citizens condemn the act before these women groups did anything. In fact the women lobby welcomed the rapists pardon singing praises to Lungu. In the rapist’s case the one who defiled a child later battering two women to a pulp shortly after his release, is now the GBV ambassador pardoned and endorsed by Lungu to even the UN question this act. Tasila Lungu was headline news with the rapist so which person is more at fault here. Most have never agreed on HH picking GBM but if that was his strategy to win the elections its better than beating, killing, brutalizing innocent women and children to throwing people in jail to remain in power.
MWANA ULI WABUFI SANA THE LATE MCS HIMSELF CONDEMNED GBM AND I THINK HE WAS EVEN SUSPENDED OR SOMETHING.
Bad strategy! This will cost HH an election. The majority of women will not vote for HH just so that GBM, alias GBV, does not get anywhere near State House. VIVA ECL! VIVA INONGE!
Sara Longwe says that “GBM should not be allowed to take up any leadership position in the country”. How can this be achieved? It is by not voting for HH. For if you do not vote for HH, then you will not allow GBM to be the country’s Vice-President. It is as simple as that.
Who is this Sara Longwe? Is she HH or ECL or EN supporter? As human beings we all make mistakes and GBM has made mistakes in his life. Given a choice I would rather vote for a wife beater than a thief and murderer. Lungu’s hands are dripping with Mapenzi Chibulo’s blood and within 18 months in Office Lungu has stolen K23.7million tax payers money. We will vote for HH,GBM and UPND. Its a done deal.
Dont say ‘we’ will vote for HH……..! Say ‘I’!!
Zedoc, well put my friend
IT IS ONLY THAT IN ZAMBIA, ANY DEAD PERSON IS SAID TO HAVE BEEN GOOD. THAT IS OUR CULTURE. BUT THE LATE MAPENZI WAS PROBABLY A RAWDY, STONE-CARRYING UPND THUG WHO WAS A THREAT TO PUBLIC SECURITY.
I and my family and grandchildren will vote for HH and I want GBM from bashilubemba to be veep.

Early struggles[edit]
When Longwe was a young secondary school teacher the government refused to grant her maternity leave. This violated the government’s obligation under an International Labor Organization convention. Longwe formed a lobbying group that succeeded in forcing the government to introduce maternity leave for teachers in 1974.[3] In another run-in during her career as a teacher, she…
In 1992, Longwe successfully sued the Intercontinental Hotel when she was refused entry to a bar in the hotel because she was not accompanied by a male. She won the case in the High Court of Zambia on the basis that discrimination against her sex was against the constitution.[9] Longwe was chairperson of the African Women’s Development and Communications Network (FEMNET) between 1997 and 2003. FEMNET, which was established in 1988, has the goal of assisting NGOs to contribute to women’s development, equality and rights, and to provide an infrastructure for information and empowerment.[3]
In 1998 Longwe said that the school system contributes to women’s subordination, so lack of schooling should not be seen as a cause for the low socio-economic status of women.[10] Longwe has been…
Ba Sara, Pantu ukuma it snot bad. Its not Chama’s fault that is married to a man who has money while u yourself wallowed in poverty for a long time.
You must be a very mentally retarted individual!…okay,did you just want to say something?
Chisenga, Mapenzi dead young lady whom you are insulting without provoking you will kill you! Watch out your life!
@Shimapalo, wonder if you would be uttering the same non.sense if you were at the receiving end?
Worse still, If Chama were your sister shimapalo.
Just shut up you bitch I am giving HH and GBM my vote after next week including the Area Councilor Executive Mayor and MP go hang yo self we ciliulewe….
What Sara Longwe is saying is that a vote for HH is a vote for GBM and a vote for GBM is endorsement of GBV.
Stupid woman Edgar Chakolwa Kaloba Wrungu stole hard earned money from a widow and you got the guts to support this criminal in state house. Go soak your puzzy in paraffin its stinks.
On top of that, UPND would be a very corrupt government. HH, GBM, Bob Schinga are proven tenderpreneurs, getting rich through government tenders, not engenuity. They are getting money for campaigns in exchange for government contracts if they won. GBM was the most corrupt minister in Sata’s government, records are there, just search the Post newspaper and Zambian watchdog archives. Bob Schinga was reported to the anti corruption for fertiliser corruption by no other than Hakainde Hichilema, search on the Internet for the letter as reported by the watchdog. UPND is not the change Zambian should fall for, even if PF has issues. Leave PF in office for now and assemble a proper team to take over in 2021. For now PF is a better devil than the worst devil UPND. I am voting PF for now.
@ Kalaluka. YOU HAVE SAID WHAT I ALSO BELIEVE IN FOR NOW. BOTH PF AND UPND ARE NOT THE VERY BEST THAT ZAMBIA DESERVES. PF HAS ISSUES THAT I DO’NT LIKE. BUT UPND HAS EVEN MORE ISSUES. FOR ME IT IS BETTER TO CHOOSE A LESSER DEVIL THAN SATAN HIMSELF. I HAVE SEEN THE PF MANIFESTO AND I THINK IT IS VERY GOOD IF THE PF IS COMMITTED TO IT. I HAVE HEARD THE 10 POINTS OF UPND WHICH ARE ALSO GOOD IF UPND CAN BE COMMITTED TO THEM. THE PF HAS STARTED SOME PROJECTS WHICH I THINK ARE GOOD. THESE NEED TO BE ALLOWED TO BE COMPLETED. WE HAVE ISSUES WITH COMMODITY PRICES. SOME OF THEM DUE TO GLOBAL PROBLEMS BUT OTHERS ARE SELF-INFLICTED. CAN THE UPND DO ANY BETTER OR EVEN MAKE THINGS WORSE? I DONT KNOW. SHOULD WE GAMBLE AND PUT THEM IN POWER? AM NOT SURE, BUT I AM AFRAID. FOR NOW, I WILL CAUTIOUSLY VOTE…
[email protected] I kind of agree with you on most of the things you have said. Allow me to answer some of your questions. Your question ” CAN THE UPND DO ANY BETTER OR EVEN MAKE THINGS WORSE?”My answer is that they (UPND) can not do any better if anything they will make things worse. Your question “SHOULD WE GAMBLE AND PUT THEM IN POWER? My answer is NO don’t even think about it. You shouldn’t vote cautiously, but with confidence because as you have said it yourself the PF’s projects ought to be completed. You say the UPND’s 10 point plan is good and i say it is nothing but a skeleton of the huge PF manifesto.
UUSHUMFWA PATUNONO NAPAFINGI PENE TAKOMFWE. IF YOU VOTE FOR HH, YOU ARE ENDORSING GBV. SO VOTE ECL AND PF, KWAMAANA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why vote for Chakolwa Chagwa who stole K23m in 18 months and has been murdering UPND supporters with his Police Force death squads?
The light at the end of the tunnel is quickly fading off for HH. We knew this will happen. It took a little longer, but it has now happened. No right thinking person can vote for HH knowing GBM may end up being our president. Let us all stop GBV by giving Lungu and Bo Inonge our votes. Let us do it for our children.
Infwiti ni Lungu. Wina (na Chakolwa) azalila. Wina ki muloi.
A “Miss/Ms” advising on marriage who would listen…..but true beating is way-way out, unacceptable
She Sara married to Woy, ma brather…
MS LONGWE YOU ARE SINGLE AND WE DONT KNOW YOUR STATUS IN MARRIEGE WHETHER YOU ARE A DIVORCEE OR NOT. LET UPND ALONE. THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO TAKE ABOUT MISTAKES ON SELECTION OF CHOICE. WHAT YOU SEE IS A MISTAKE OTHERS HAVE SEEN IT IS A NOT AND IS A STRENGTH TO UPND BECAUSE FOR SURE YOU ARE AFRAID THAT COME 11 AUG, INONGE WINA WILL LOOSE THE VICE PRESIDENCY SEAT.
SO THE TOP WILL BE A MAN AND THE VICE WILL BE A MAN NOT ABOUT A BATTERER BUT VICE PRESIDENT AND HE IS SCOOPING THE SEAT PERIOD
Ka Senama, this has nothing to do with longwe’s marital status. Don’t be a coward. It you are interested in her just talk to her, silly twerp!
But Sara she married, man! She married to Woy…Woy something, man. ‘Kala’-something…
Imwe GBM has a small brain, and dont be surprised to see him slapping HH after they lose the 11 August elections. The UPND T0ngas in Southern province dont have a slightest clue of how dangerous this GBM they are suddenly banking on is, soon and very soon, they will know how violent the man is. Two things have already been planned by GBM in UPND:
1. Upon their defeat on 11 August, he will immediately call for change of leadership change in UPND and stand as an alternative leader.
2. He will claim that he has spent so much money on the campaigns and the only way to recoup it is by leading UPND which apparently has already been taken over by him and the cartel. If you have realised by now, Miles Sampa’s UDF is dead and buried and so the only platform these shameless crooks can be heard…
cont’d
Miles Sampa’s UDF is dead and buried and so the only platform these shameless crooks can be heard from is by hijacking an already existing party, in this case UPND.
So, the desperation and incompetency that HH showed the country by choosing GBM as running mate is haunting him and killed.
UPND have since realised that their support is still in Southern province the registered voters in that part of Zambia cannot and will not make them win a General elections MORE SO UNDER THE 50%+1 new constitution requirement hence the threats of violence when ECL and PF are declared winners.
Ba Sara…so someone can not be given a second chance? Your husband carries a different view, maybe he should not have married you? Why should the past taint someone for life? Let he/she without fault cast the first stone.
Because he is a serial violent abuser who should be behind bars not running for the vice presidency. This is in addition to the multitude of allegations regarding his corrupt behaviour when he was defence minister which have been highlighted by the Zambian Watchdog which must be swallowing its own vomit as we speak.
The problem is he does it from time to time, so which past are you talking about? He does it Now and Then as per your blog name! He a serial abuser of women! Some blog made me laugh! ”Don’t be shocked if GBV slaps HH after the loss”…kekekekekeeee nice one…anyway that’s how bad this fat sack is!
It’s true GBM is violent. I grew up with him somewhere and I know him well. His violent behaviour has been with him ever since as far back as I can remember. High leadership position calls for a sober character. Idi amin type of leadership is not the way to go in modern political dispensation.
Useless woman
I think that is what GBV says to his wife before he clobbers her one!
Though most of us are with HH, the running mate decision for HH was not the right one based on the violent conduct and history of the running mate. If the man has repented, then we needed more time to see
UPND is a well constituted team and does not run based on one person, that’s why it has outlived most of the one man parties.Its the only party that has out lived its founding leader and survived in opposition,if this is not strength,then strength has assumed a new meaning.
…but wait a minute. We lost a life of a young girl brutally murdered by Police, there was no word from Mrs Sarah Longwe. Life gone, just like that, lying still in her grave
THE GIRL WAS KILLED BECAUSE SHE WAS IN THE COMPANY OF ROWDY THUGS THAT WERE CARELESSLY DARING THE LAW ENFORCERS. WHO SAYS EVERY DEAD PERSON IS CORRECT? SHE HAS BROUGHT SADNESS ON HER FAMILY.
@chisenga you were not there. I was there and there were no thugs present just people exercising their freedom of choice and rowdy police thugs wearing uniforms bought using the taxpayers money and vehicles and guns came and disrupted this peaceful procession. Remember someone instructed them to sort them people because as he puts it naba tumpa sana!
@Zambian make me understand one thing? I know loss of life is not something easy to cope with! May her soul rest in eternal peace. I was just wondering out of the multitude, which photographer knew that this was the girl about to be shot at? Ever heard of collateral damage?
pipo should know that in USA or Europe GBM can’t qualify to be a running mate of any party.HH is not a leader.U can’t choose a leader who beats women and workers.We told HH that if u think bembas are so st—-up to vote for GBM then u’re mistaken.We don’t support GBv chaps in Bemba land.A man should not beat his wife.We can’t have a running mate who beats his workers,wife and anyone who disagree with him.HH is too desparate to be in state house.Mean HH supporters will support anything so long as HH supports it.Indeed tribal politics.Evn GBM was chosen on tribal basis.Thinking bembas will go for GBM.what a shallow thinking by HH!I can’t vote with my family for GBM n HH.
What an Ar.se you are – mother fuc.ker!! Do you think a convicted thief, Edgar Lungu, would be standing a republican candidate in USA or Europe! You have brains of a Chimpanzeee! Id.iot!!
Iwe buk@l@ b0be what about Edgar Chakolwa Kaloba Wrungu who stole hard earned cash from a widow and answer me why is Wrungu’s law practicing license was suspended?ch1kal@ ca w1s0.
Chilyata, typical of GBV, oh no GBM’s relatives. Rantings, violence and lack of communication skills are your hallmark. Just refer to what your big brother GBM told Kapeso over arrested UPND thugs in Kasama.
Lukutu, the bible refers to people like you in psalms 109 Vs17.
It is not only GBM who cannot qualify for a Government position in USA or UK, even Lungu would not have qualified based on his past record as a lawyer.
Which USA ? A Country that allows people of the same sex to marry can not be my standard! my foot!
@ Now and Then, this is not “someone ‘s past” GBM has been reported as insulting and threatening to beat up his campaign managers in northern and muchinga province and anyone who crosses his path including senior Police officers like Mr Kapeso. This is not his past it is his way of life and true he should not be allowed to come near State house. That’s why for me and my house hold we are voting ECL and Bo Ma Inonge Wina on 11th August 2016…….#ECL.
idiiotic woman no sense
That is what GBV says to his wife before he clobbers her one! He is so violent that he has on a number of occasions put his wife in hospital. What would be disreputable is to have a vice president who actually killed his wife whilst in office.
Ba Longwe stop coloring your hair…..ulimukotesana….kkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Well, her brains are not coloured like yours for you to post such a stup!d blog!
This OLD Ar.sewhore, Sara Longwe, doing wako ni wako to Edgar!
Where was this sen.ior prost.itute, Longwe, when a young woman was undressed in public and when Mapenzi, a young girl was gunned down by Lungu!!
Best she shuts her smelly and sta.le pus.sey than exposing evil and devilish mindset in public. ID.IOT of a grannie!!
Chilyata may somebody insult your parents the same way you are insulting an elderly parent here. Could Chilyata be GBM on LT? The coincident is too obvious!
It was not wako ni wako when she was criticising Lungu on the adoption of the constitution? Same with Mpezeni, he supported PF under Sata against RB and no one said anything. As soon as he endorses Lungu then it becomes Wako ni Wako!
Mupzeni never supported sata he supported wa chipuno chikulu.Dont lie sara is just tribal fullstop,she was quiet on more deserving cases like when inonge and her cadres undressed a young lady during youthday celebrations.A girl who could not have been a threat to the police was killed in cold blood you fool never said a word give us a break.
@Damiano when that girl died the women movement and the general public spoke out. it’s a regrettable that a life was lost but it is all because GBM and his Mate HH incited them to go to the streets to cause confusion.
Be very quiet and say no word for things you know not! Be very very quiet okey? Leave the dead alone, they know no thing.
True Ba Sara, GBV has destroyed HH, why should we vote for Amagedons. Viva ECL Nafuti Nafuti
Whatever you say ba Sara Longwe we will vote for HH we have already made up our minds. HH is very healthy he will rule for 5 years.
Conti HH will rule for 5 years and over.
Dream on my brother dream on. It doesn’t cost nothing to dream.
bola naikosa chachine,and if no woman will vote for HH,what happens?
does this mean he loses Majority since women are many in this voter’s register.fyakuifwaila fye ba HH
And how about the one who was refused a practice certificate for stealing a woman client’s money? Will this make the women choose him over the other? Tough eh?
The fraudster is directly rightly convicted but kachema is being indirectly accused aka kontolola.
I can’t understand why these UPND peoples dispute facts…
GBM was a mistake, Bembas are too smarter to ride on hh wishful thinking.
Nawakwi will come second in all areas north of Lsk…
I’m sorry but that’s just the fact!!
These are facts. 1 UPND President deceiving voters by preventing them from claiming the enhanced Bill of Rights through referendum because he hates the fact that PF has facilitated it & doesn’t care that its legal & binding on GRZ for benefit of Zambians 2 To him general election is more important than referendum because referendum is just for Zambians 3 He calls the taking of development to poor in rural areas through roads, schools, hospitals, etc failure 4 He knows that GBM is violent, insolent, unqualified & corrupt but goes to choose him as running mate he can not fire because he thinks he can get votes from north. All marks of selfishness to get to State House at any cost to Zambia. God forbid!
My dear it is not about PF, they wanted to pass it through parliament but PF realized that its too late Parliament is closed. What would have happened is that ECZ, appointed by Lungusha, would have had no time to bring the so called referendum to the people at voteni. All what we have seen in the past was only selected people to seat and make decision then throw it in parliament and eventualy pass a ruling.
Since when in Zambian record did we had a yes/no referendum where all Zambians were involved? See the symbols and this means a lot to me.
COMING TO GBM, BA PF NAMUFILWA AND YOU ARE AFRAID THAT WHEN UPND COMES IN LEADERSHIP, MOST PF LEADERS WILL BE ARRESTED FOR THEIR MANY WRONGS.
GBM HAS A PHD UNLIKE YOU KAMBWILI WHO WAS HONORED FOR TERROLISM AND GIVEN A DIPLOMA FOR FREE. GBM IS…
I agree with Sara Longwe that selecting GBM as a running mate was a mistake and most of us condemned HH, but this NGO has just popped up two weeks before elections, where were you all this time?
GBM was announced as a running mate at the eleventh hour so there was no time to condemn it. HH got it all wrong had he tested the waters a week or so earlier he would probably have changed his decision.
Eroded morals. She has deliberately forgotten that she is right now being misgoverned by an unrepentant thief, a brainless clown man who drinks excessively every day and night, a promoter of violence, a hypocrite who specialises in mocking God with fake prayers, a man who condones the murder and abuse of women. Doesn’t she see these things?
Better the devil you know than GBV. If HH wanted to retain his moral high ground he should not have chosen GBV as his running mate period. Not only is GBV a violent thug, there many questions surrounding his business dealings when he was defence minister. HH should be more discerning with the company he keeps and not be so desperate to state house because if you sleep with dogs you will get fleas. Unfortunately for HH, his mouthpiece the Watchdog have already documented the real character of GBV and that is the reason many of us will support ECL and Inonge Wina.
Well said.
@Mphendula Kayaula
That devil must never be a convicted thief, vision-less, idea-less, drunkard, hypocrite, violent, condoner of murder, a one track mind that discusses petty issues rather than critical national problems like the clown currently occupying high office. Don’t you agree? Look for a better devil if you must have it so. All GBM needs is anger management while Lungu must serve a prison sentence for thieving. When are you people going to demand and insist on quality leadership? In any case PF is out along with its drunkard leader.
Shut the f****ck woman who are you today when a young woman was murdered,ladies stripped naked and raped…including hubby snatchers who want to be presido of Zambia
I think shes stating the facts, some of us are not happy because she is speaking against the party candidate of the party we support. This is beyond partisan politics.
The moment she campaigned that Koffi ‘s shows be canceled her stance on women’s rights were questioned. She cant sit and pretend that GBM is a different from Kanene and Koffi Olomide.
Let there be consistency.
ba Sara what is wrong with your hair? Namukota that is why your reasoning is so shallow.
IF her reasoning is as shallow as you put it, then i wouldn’t wish to describe your reasoning.
SARA LONGWE, WHAT IS THERE FOR KAIZER ZULU WHO ASSAULTED A YOUNG WOMAN, NOT HIS WIFE AT THE FILLING STATION. IF YOU HAVE BEEN OILED PLEASE JUST ENJOY YOUR BLOOD LOOT SECRETLY RATHER THAN BARKING LIKE A DOG ON HEAT.
The difference is that Kaizer Zulu is not running for the office of the Vice president unlike GBM. If you can not differentiate the two then you are on a wrong fora.
Who is this B1tch? Why didn’t she say anything when GBM was defense minister? We all have a past and GBM has one too. I challenge this Wh0re to tell the nation if she has never done anything wrong in her life.
Ni b1tch wanyanko? For you upnd anything but hh…
sucks!
I am more worried with Sara Longwe’s health than her statement. Even her hair does not look health. She looks quite troubled with her health. This could be affecting her thinking. I am sure she has been paid handsomely for her to throw away all her good morals and utter such nonsense.
If her health is affecting her thinking, then your health is even worse.
The Zambian women’s movement should have taken a position on HH’s appointment of a known GBV perpetrator, GBM, as running mate ealier. However, the recent case of Congo musician Koffi Olomide caught on camera furiously kicking one of his dancing queens, being deported from Kenya, being arrested in Congo DR and threatened with a long prison sentence, the ACSZ decision not allowing Koffi to perform at the Lusaka show are enough grounds on which the Zambian women’s movement is justified to revisit its stance on HH’s appointment of GBM as running mate. Whether madam Longwe has been given money or not to come up with her latest stance, as the Zambian Watchdog is trying to suggest, is beside the point. The issue is about what signal the appointment of a known GBV perpetrator as…
And what would you say if the eife said she fofgave her husband? Remember we are Christian nation and we ard encouraged to forgive one another before wd even call on God to forgive us? Remember the 10 commandments and what happens when you break one? So someone tell me who is a better sinner, one who beatsbthe spouse, one who steals from their clients and one who swearsbto protect his people but and in the same breath orders the security forces to sort out his people because they are not happy with his leadership style and this order leads to the death of a young defenceless mother?
Sarah Longwe how about answering my question?
The issue is about what signal the appointment of a known GBV perpetrator as presidential running mate sends to the entire world on Zambia’s commitment to fight GBV. The wrong signal that HH’s appointment of GBM as running mate sends to the entire world is that Zambia rewards perpetrators of GBV, with GBM being one such perpetrator. This appointment also speaks volumes about HH’s judgment, or lack of it, which which raises serious questions about HH’s political will, or lack of it, in fighting GBV and his suitability for the top Zambian job of President. For how is HH going to speak convincingly against the GBV and muster enough political will to fight the vice if he becomes President of Zambia with GBM, a known GBV perpetrator, as his Vice President?
The issues I raise about HH’s judgement, or lack of it, and his suitability for the top Zambian job are issues that can be raised about HH’s judgment, or lack of it, and his suitability for the top Zambian job on other matters related to violence in general. We have to date not heard anything from HH about the brutalizing of an FDD female candidate in Namwala. He has remained conveniently mute because it does not affect one of his members. No wonder HH is not concerned about GBM’s violent past because the victims of GBM’s violent acts are not persons close to him. Now, do you want someone to be President of a country who will only be concerned about those close to him?
Zedoc you speak sense all the way you are a true patriot of the land. HH is a violent man going by his choice of a running mate and his special adviser in William Tekela banda.
#43, which nonsense, is GBM not violent and foul mouthed? He is and there is no disputing that. Bringing up other names rather than Inonge WINA IN COMPARISON to GBM’s violence and uncouth language is failure to reason at Kamau #41.
We will not have a VEEP who is like a smoldering volcano sharing power with the president. In the event that the president dies, we Zambians cannot end up with an Idi Amin Dada type of president at any cost.
Even my old mother was asking me what was wrong with GBM, when she read the insults he hauled at Kapeso. For this reason, HH will not be voted for in the 11th August 2016 elections.
UPND cadres on LT may rant and insult, but most Zambians will simply not take the chance!
Thank God you are ‘not’ most Zambians and you only have one vote to cast!! Moosssttt!
Sara, please know that we lost a life under PF Police brutality which cannot be justified in any way. And you are busy talking about GBM who has not killed any one. Another one was undressed, and we did not hear your voice
@43 – to add to what @Mundetelele has said – In case, you don’t believe that GBM is violent and foul mouthed, he was just two days ago insulting Bonnie Kapeso, the Police Commissioner on the Northern province, calling him names and threatening to fire him immediately they took office. Really, I don’t see how anyone can defend GBM, he is a serial offender and has no shame in his behaviour. If he did, he would have stopped and started exhibiting (vice) presidential behaviour but he hasn’t.
Yes Kapeso deserved the insults because he is a criminal breaking into peoples’s homes just because he was paid by Kaminamisa. GBM was Minister of Defence, since when was he unfit to hold a leadership position. Ba Longwe you have also been bought for 2 pieces of silver by Kaminamisa. It is you who is not fit for being morally bankrupt.
He was appointed as Defence minister not elected to the office of the defence ministry. He was imposed on the people but this time the people will be the ones deciding. If i may ask, what did you like about GBM when he was Minister of Defence? To my knowledge he abused his office by allocating more vehicles and personnel to himself. I can only imagine how he would be carrying himself around if GOD FORBID he was to be vice president of the great republic of Zambia.
Mama for Upnd anyone outside Upnd is corrupt but once they join Upnd their sins become vasiline
Exactly! I hated the fact that GBV was defence minister under Sata and my views have not changed now. With UPND you can do anything as long as you support them then all is forgiven. Remember how the Watchdog you to literally incite readers to insult Masebo by calling her all sorts of names including insulting her ‘*****’ son? As soon as she jumped ship all is forgiven. The reverse is true for RB, when he was facing corruption charges he was being persecuted to the extent that HH was supporting him in court but when he was acquitted, all of a sudden the judges were corrupt! The Watchdog are so hypocritical that they were criticising Lungu for sidelining the like of Suba whose appointment as PS they had previously criticised as an example of Sata’s abuse of power and nepotism.
@senana go read the consititution! Parliament cannot not repeal part 3 until it has gone to the referendum
Sara should just go and masturbate!
Non-Governmental Organisation Coordinating Council (NGOCC) Chairperson Sarah Longwe, Have you offered your support to Maureen Mwanawasa’s candidature for the position of Lusaka Mayor? Which woman are you going to support for Lusaka central parliamentary seat? Sara Longwe is one one who has very low moral principles. Lungu released a convicted rapist and wife batterer but you are very quite. Why? Is it because Lungu is paying you to campaign for him. For your own information, the UPND Presidential candidate is HH and please let me know something else you have against HH, otherwise, shut up.
Yes watchman, the presidential candidate for the UPeND is the one you mentioned and his running mate is very well violent character who cannot finish a converstion without a word or two of insults! Who would love to have such a charlatan for a veep! Unless the reuplic has gone bananas! This GBV sack is fit to be Dr Glu in ”depsicable me”!
Someone has just shown me HH’s cabinet should he win the forthcoming elections. Apparently the “cabinet” is doing the rounds on whatsapp, facebook, etc. If it is true then it is pathetic. It is dominated by people from Southern Province (Tongas), followed by people from Western Province (Lozis) and two Bembas (GBM and Mutale Nalumango). HH’s cabinet will be worse than Sata’s. I want him (HH) to win though so that he can face the wrath of Zambians on the issue of his UPND tribalism ; perceived or real. This “cabinet” will definitely cost UPND and HH many votes.
I would not be surprised if Daniel ”dinosaur” Munkombwe muselela kwa kaba kujumpa jumpa is part of that Cabinet which will never be! Anyway with Hypnotised Hyena anything Tonga goes, malabishi!
I saw that list yesterday. Kindly, circulate the names according to cabinet portfolios for people to judge for themselves.
When Sara attacked Lungu and PF she was showered with all sorts of praises all over the media by Upnd. She was just like now stating facts. Mulenga Sata was accused by Upnd of stealing state which he used to “build ” flats in South Africa. Now he’s Upnd that issue is forgotten. You have no principles now so what more if you formed government?
We all have “luggage” madam Longwe, going forward our challenge is how to let the law follow its course, no matter who the offender, unlike the current travesty of a situation! As our lord & saviour once said, “let he who is free of sin be the first to throw a stone!” Efyo bapasangene…
UPND will only believe what Sara Longwe has stated when GBM insults or slaps their Supreme Leader HH… because they worship the Supreme Leader and they just cannot reason independently as long as HH has said it…
GBM is a principled man. He is a force to be reckoned with. The PF and their supporters have been shaken to the core, he has tipped the balance of power in favour of UPND. Viva GBM, the man with a mission
We are with you EDGAR. You have done more good than expected in the short time you have occupied the highest office. I can foresee one opposition presidential aspirant crying tears of blood on 12/8/2016.
@senama Sarah Longwe is married to Mr Kalaki just Google instead of embarrassing yourself
The wise say educating a man it’s like u ve educated an individual,but when u educate a woman u ve educated the community!!!
Now here comes a gentleman who don’t respect women can he be a leader !!!!!! think as u will be voting!
@Malcolm msoni: You think with your Ar.se instead of the head! No need arguing with you! Mother fuc.ker!
Awe apapena bana Longwe mwalasa. Any good politician should know the evils of wife beating. Why did HH ignore Banda, Gary Nkombo even GBM’s fellow new arrivals like Mrs Sata to pick a thug?
Women are always victims of male bullies. Men who know their wives have nowhere to go like GBM want to torture their women to show they are in control. Viva Sarah Longwe!
Last words in conclusion: VOTE HH AND GBM epela. Tusheni bane, I foresee a bright future under UPND.
You can try all the tricks in the book…..they won’t deter me and my team plus all my extended relatives to “GO FORWARD CHABE”.
You have sighted:
That HH is selfish, tribal, violent, satanist, chosen wrong vice-president, etc. But we need HH to turn this country around for the betterment of our own people. He is much more learned and intelligent than ECL.
HH FORWARD! ECL DUNUNA REVERSE! But we refuse to dununa reverse in our development mwee!!!
VIVA UPND!
It is the same GBM who was the minister of defence under the late MCS. The same GBM who was a memeber of parliament under PF party! So wher was this ugly thing Sara Longwe when GBM was battering his wife under the PF govt??
Now that he has teamed up with HH, and a few bank notes from ECL, all of a sudden GBM is a wrong candidate to hold office?? YOU HYPOCRITES!!
YOU ARE GRASPING AT STRAWS! MWAKA WAKWA HH UNO!! WE ARE SICK AND TIRED OF BENG RULED BY “AMAFUTU” NABA “KAPONYA”.
And this ugly biased witch was delegation leader to Dubai for printing ballots. Am sure she is a frustrated unmarried or divorced harlot. HH and runningmate are a done deal. Even if they had to die today, I will still vote for them as long as they are on the ballot paper.
Being president is a serious responsibility. Under the new constitution being vice president has also become serious. The president can’t fire the vice & they are now voted together. There is nothing UPND die-hards can do to change fact that 1 choice of GBM was worst 1st political self damaging decision by HH 2 his opposition to referendum shows his not interested in what is good for Zambians 3 his failure to recognise development achieved shows his not ready to build upon that 4 their insults & hate mongering shows that these 2 are bitter men who want to win only to settle scores @ cost to Zambians. But God will not allow!
Why dont you just write in Nyanja instead of struggling in English! Ar.sewhore!!
Shame on you Sara Longer you failed to condemn the brutal murder of mapenzi and the striping naked of a upnd women in presence of Wina and there you are yapping about nonsense. you think we don’t ready and understand how can we support leaders who have misplaced our economy encouraged violence intimidation brutality thuggery as compared to people who have pronounced against violence like GBM and HH and they have meant it because if GBM and hh where to react to pf provocation and tell their members to react that’s wen you can see the real violence and so we know that GBM and hh are not violent. You madam that’s why you are married because you are stubborn and misplaced.
So HH shud have put wiso instead mwaa?
HH AND GBM Forward already we have concluded.
Sara Longwe – ichi chinkalamba kanshi chikunkubiti with large hole between the legs!!
The easy flow of personal insults on me and the threats to my life prove my point on gender based violence in leadership. ALUTA CONTINUA Zambia!
