  1. Let the country vote with passion like our nega nega folks vote. Good news is that the sum of us is bigger than those who want to burn the country. We need stability, unity and peace alien to anarchists.

    • With defeat indelibly written on the walls of their homes, meeting places and the Masonic lodges, anarchists have desperately turned to rumor milling in overdrive. Its all in hope of triggering imaginary popular uprising having failed flat on all facets of aberration against a working administration. While they trust in chariots and horses, Zambians and their leader ECL anchor their faith in the Lord God who raises leadership. This year and next week to be specific, thousands of self made hate groups will fall flat to the right hand of Zambia’s chief servant ECL. My vote on continuity with Lungu period. You also get out to vote YES Lungu!

    • YES WE WILL TURN UP IN LARGE NUMBERS, becoz THIS TIME, “IT IS TIME TO FLUSH ba PamaFi DOWN THE PIT-LATRINES WHERE THEY BELONG!!!”

      PamaFiKUYABEBELE!!! PEOPLE TURN UP IN NUMBERS, we don’t want a RE-RUN!!!!!
      #CHAGWAMUSTFALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      VOTE WISELY 11/8/2016!! VOTE ZAMBIA FORWARD!! VOTE UPND!!!

      I thank you!!

    • ALERT ZAMBIANS, as per ECZ website, VOTE COUNTING IS TO BE DONE AT EACH & EVERY POLLING STATION, So after VOTING, stay around & WITNESS THE COUNT, then transmit the VOTE COUNT TO OUR DESIGNATED PARALLEL VOTE TAB, hopefully, WATCHDOG will be COLLATING THE VERIFIED VOTE COUNT HOUR BY HOUR!!!!

      NOW IS THE TIME TO BE MOST VIGILANT AS THEY DISTRIBUTE THE BALLOTS, just like our Brothers & sisters in Mkushi, Livingstone & Senanga!!
      Likelihood, the MOST VULNERABLE ARE THOSE BEING DELIVERED BY AIR!! IN those areas, it is OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT THE VOTE COUNT IS MONITORED WITH EAGLE-EYES – EVERY VOTE SHOULD BE SIGHTED & VERIFIED before the ballots are transported to the CONSTITUENCY COLLATION CENTRES!!!

      Vote WISELY 11/8/2016!! VOTE ZAMBIA FORWARD!! VOTE FOR A UNITED, RESURGENT & PEACEFUL…

    • ….Vote WISELY 11/8/2016!! VOTE ZAMBIA FORWARD!! VOTE FOR A UNITED, RESURGENT & PEACEFUL ZAMBIA UNDER UPND!!! Abantu baya!!

      #Chagwamustfall!! #PamaFikuyabebele!!

      I thank you!!

    • RB IS A LIABILITY TO PF. IN 2011 THE PEOPLE OF ZAMBIA REJECTED RB BECAUSE OF HIS ABUSE OF OFFICE AND CORRUPTION. I DON’T THINK ZAMBIANS HAVE CHANGED THEIR MIND ABOUT RB AS HE HAS ALSO CONTINUED WITH HIS CORRUPT HABITS. FROM THE TURKISH POWER DEAL WHICH HE BROKERED WITH HIS FUGITIVE SON HENRY, HE IS GETTING $10 MILLION FOR HIMSELF. HE HAS BOASTED THAT HE HAS MADE MORE MONEY IN THE SHORT PERIOD OF LUNGU’S PRESIDENCY THAN HE HAD MADE IN THE 3 YEARS HE HAD BEEN PRESIDENT. THE MAN IS ALSO OPENLY AND SHAMELESSLY PROMOTING TRIBALISM. HE HAS ALSO BROKEN THE LAW THAT FORBIDS FORMER HEADS OF STATE FROM TAKING AN ACTIVE PART IN POLITICS. RB AND LUNGU ARE THE WORST THINGS TO HAPPEN TO ZAMBIA.

    • MANOMAMBULWA – Why aren’t you also talking about 2015 when RB supported ECL and ECL won? There is no law that prevents an ex-president from participating in active politics besides the term limit.

    • While I come across explicitly tribal remarks and encouragements of division among ourselves like the above two comments, People should not aline themselves like that. It is better to bring out the good that a presidential candidate is able to deliver for the country, not just urging people to vote in tribal lines. Mind you I have read most comments on LT I have never come across a southerner, not even one pretending to be southerner, urging southerners to vote in tribal lines. I have not even come across a statement where HH for example brags about his riches. Actually the only way I have come to know that HH is rich through people who claim that he is rich and therefore is pompous because of it. My Opinion is that HH is a living chide of the corrupt, who has achieved more mileage…

    • @ 2.2 Observer Observer,

      Was nega nega voting formula tribal???? If it was then its very regrettable and those who applauded and benefited from it, must never expect Zambians to honor them with their votes. On the other note, if it not tribal which i pray so, then what is wrong to use the same template across Zambian constituencies?

  2. Now we know why Lungu and PF are so confident of winning this election. Their winning trump card is Rigging at all levels of the electoral processes. In their perceived strongholds they will use premarked ballots, ballot stuffing and switching. Already three trucks loaded with premarked ballots have been detained in Mkushi by UPND supporters. In HH strongholds we can expect voters to have been disenfranchised the inept ECZ.Zambians should remain alert and vigilant to make sure our vote is not stolen by Lungu and his Election Riggers thru a compromised ECZ and Concourt. Violent, visionless and clueless Chakolwa Lungu must go. Forward with HH and UPND.

  3. Continued…….
    My Opinion is that HH is a living chide of the corrupt, who has achieved more mileage financially that has been possible by other politicians perceived to be corrupt through corrupt means. There are a lot of rich people in Zambia today, some richer than HH but we don’t talk about them but the day they shall rise to want to work for and contribute to Zambia will be the day stories will be created about them. It happened to Professor Clive Chirwa and that man has been quietened yet he could have made significant contribution, or atleast he should have been given a chance to prove his perceived theories, 5 Years is not a long time.

  4. The adage of birds of same feathers flock together. RB and ECL, the two shortest serving Zambian presidents. 3 year tenure and 1 year 6 months tenure respectively. Well done both, we are grateful that you served the nation.We will always respect and admire you, God bless

  5. I direct all bloggers to stop writing essays, be brief and to the point. I don’t have time to read your long blogs, I am busy decampaigning PF,

  6. Let him first give each of us K5 million then we will. You RB see the need to continue with Chagwa because of the K5 million you have received from him. Silly and very selfish old man.

  7. This time around be rest assured that we replicating the neganega voting by turning out in large numbers on the voting date. What happened in January should not be allowed to happen again.
    You have my vote and my family Mr. President. We need peace and unity and you are the best candidate to steer this nation to greater heights

  8. Counter Nega Nega! Wako Ni Wako! The country will give southerners a taste of their own medicine! Kalusa will be retired from our political scene for good- Umuntu Ni Lungu!

  9. Yes will turn up in large number to vote Edgar Kachasu Lutuku Wrungu out,he is the worst thing to have happened to Zambia and how i wish he was born in the kalahari desert.

  10. @Lutuku Presido, be rest assured that ECL is bouncing back with a bang. Your analysis is based on January elections, PF only campaigned for 21 days whilst Kalusa was campaigning even during the funeral. You will end in Kalahari desert yourself because you are in denial that ECL will rule up 2021.

  11. Zambia is voting for Edgar Chagwa Lungu whilst Kalusa is geting an ehtnic lopsided vote! This time around, we”ll kolopa the votes and dununa Kalusa to his cows! Landslide victory awaits ECL!

  12. That one who respect God , has my prayer .
    Satan has lost zambia for Jesus; Iam a follower of the king of kings.
    Zambia for Jesus.

  13. Why would I vote for Lungu? Lungu has a criminal record, he has run down our economy, he has no Vision, he is drunkard, he is violent, he is selfish, he does not respect the Rule of Law and Court Orders etc. Lungu is the worst President Zambia has ever had. Lungu must go. Vote for the sober hardworking HH.

  14. Banesu even if it is wako ni wako mukanya amensh.There are no cheap shops for Easterners no one eats tribe. Those brown envelopes won’t last you for five years vote wisely on 11/08/16

  15. Rupia Banda should bring the money for the Nigeria oil deal( 2.5 million dollars ) we have not forgotten. Chagwa acquitted him dubiously. The immunity will once again be struck off from him.
