Oracle Media Productions Ltd, the firm claiming to be behind the publication of the Mast Newspaper has denied suggestions that the paper is an illegal publication.
Oracle Media Productions Ltd Managing Director Mutinta Mazoka M’membe said in a statement that the current discussion of The Mast in the government media is wrong and has no basis in law.
It has been suggested that The Mast is an illegal publication for allegedly not being registered with the Zambia Revenue Authority.
“Our company has tendered all the documents required for Tax Registration and is therefore compliant with Tax laws,” Mrs Mazoka M’membe said.
She said it is therefore wrong to suggest that The Mast is being published illegally.
“On the question of copyright, we have established that there are no registered trademarks or other similar rights that The Mast is infringing. That said, we will continue to publish the newspaper in keeping with the laws of the land as established,” she said.
Go girl!!!!
Manje did it have to take this long to refute the allegations?
I shake Mmembe’s hand, that woman is extra.
Seems Mutintas makes good wives. HH has a Mutinta as well.
She is ugly why marry such an older man?
Gold digger
Thanks

Mutinta – time for a new husband.
I seriously can’t believe that the conman has put his own wife in the front line of the battleground.
when she realises that he’s set her up she’ll kill him – at least, so I hope…..
Let her upload the necessary certificates online so that we can see them i don’t believe anything associated with m’membe
While bedroom needs may be guaranteed with a Mutinta for a wife, advice on important matters from a wife may not be equally so. We all know how HH has failed to step aside from the UPND leadership after a string of election losses. After battling successive govts. Fred Mmembe refuses to see sense with a Mutinta for a wife!
Who else on this forum also finds himself in this Mutinta web? …
she is cute…
Ba Mushota JD she is much prettier than you even a blind person would say the same thing. Nubian mind your own business am sure you have no husband. Mutinta is beautiful and intelligent if Mmembe is with her for other reasons other than love then it is him who has something to loose.
For those of you who are saying Mmembe has put his wife in front in battle, you need to come to the 21st century. Zambia is not a banana republic. What stops Mutinta from running a newspaper? Don’t we have laws in our country? This should not be reduced to petty fights between the Party and its Government against Fred.
Welcome to the arena girl! You are Mmembe’s ace we all have been waiting for. You are natural and cute. Give them another 20 years of hell similar to what your hubby gave MMD. We are all behind you. Girl power. These thieves will face Mutinta’s music big time, 10-fold what Mmembe’s gave. Ka Lungu (Edward) kalafwa in no time and all the thieving ministers will scamper Muchani. Go Mutinta Go!
Let the owners of POST now register trademarks or other similar rights so that mastoto can have other features diff from the fallen Paste
Kopi and paste.
I wonder what the Great Mazoka would have made of this partnership his daughter married to this wizzard M’membe. Anywhere anybody can register a newspaper there is nothing we can do about it…that’s the beauty of democracy.
They are both Wizards, so it would not have mattered.
They love each other.
They do love each other.
They do love each other, right!?
The fact is that Mutinta Mazoka is Fred Mmembe’s wife. Only the naive and gullible can believe that the The Mast is different from The Post and that her husband is not behind the whole scheme, with her being used as a front. Who does Mutinta think she is fooling? These people certainly don’t respect our intelligence!
What intelligence do you deserve. The Mastis legal in the eyes of the law whether you like it or not. How dull are you?
LETS BE CAREFUL WITH THIS GOVERNMENT.
YOU CANT HAVE GOVT MEDIA SPACE ONLY.
WE NEED DIVERGENT VIEWS LIKE THAT OF THE MAST.
AFTER ALL KAMBWILI IS ALSO LOOKING UP TO THE MAST TO COVER HIM AND NOT GOVT MEDIA.
Ok, so why us ZRA issuing threats., is ZRA now PF wing,?
Ignorants for GRZ leaders is the curse cast upon this Country.
how do one access the mast online
make sure you pay Tax osati chabe trying to castigate government
Mushota you cant compare to her. Marrying a white man doesn’t make one beautiful.
A young black woman marrying a decrepit wizened Scotsman is double agony, especially these Trump and Brexit days. You will have the KKK and/or UKIP camping on your front lawn.
Please can you deal with criminals like that gorilla kambwili rather than busy persecuting intelligent hardworking people who want to tell zambians the truth. Please do not mind mushota, she has outlived her usefullness. She knows that with me around she does not stand a chance of winning best blogger of the year which she last won due to fluke and lack of thinkers like myself. Good evening zambia
Comment:@ Mushota, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. In Mmembe’s eyes, Mutinta is “smoking!”
Mutinta you are the hero, you have saved so many souls.
Since post was crashed by haters I just rely on social media.
Let us just pray for those low level employees who lost there are mergre wages for the evil cruelty and hate for those who don’t know how to compete.
Memembe has enough resources for him to continue living lavish life, he has made good fortune for quarter of a century. When Lungu was in Chawama drinking illicit brew.
The people who have suffered are those innocent ones who have no means.
Lungu should know we’re in the 21st century, don’t expect people who have nothing to do with you to respect you. Let Kambwili and those you sign and give them cheques respect you.
It is natural law, it doesn’t need to be scripted. If the law was followed the post would be here…
I thought The Mast was declared illegal a long time ago. Why make mention this time naimwe. Its too late to sugar coat things. Illegalities are illegalities. ZRA says you are illegal and you are busy armtwisting them. You just have a bad legacy with your hubby. Nthota nabakazi manje. What a bad beginning!
Mutinta and Mmembe’s marriage is a of very low morality. The lady was married to a non Zambian abs whislt the husband was terminally ill, she started seeing Fred, divorced the man and got married to Fred. Some reasonable family members refused to get the nsalamu as it was embarassing to the family. Make your own judgement.
She is a dare devil!!!
…Then Fred is also a problem. I think he even knew that her husband was ill and must have even encouraged her to get a divorce very quickly so he could marry her. Shame on you Mmembe!!!!
Don’t lie. What is wrong with you Zambians! Finally you have nothing to talk about Mmembe and now you are fabricating lies about him through a#*hole. You effing i.d.iots can’t do anything apart from laziness and voting fellow i.d.i.ots into office and yet the next day you are already complaining about the economy. MMembe is having a blast of his life, while you wallow in poverty with envy and bitterness about MMembe. No matter how much you try to smear him, he is far too smarter than you low-IQ monkeys who can even spell your bloody names. wankas!
As though she is the only sinner, start with Dora flirting with the two heads and you are saying nothing about it. Mutinta was going through a divorce with the American hubby while Zambian men can have four homes and nothing is wrong with that. The President has a second family in Kabwata noone says anything about it because it is normal. Just shut up she was never married to two men at one time.
Kikikikikikiki….what is doomed to failure us doomed to failure. Sorry madam nangu mutintilile shani or ukutinta sana, your project is still born. There is no project based on that vampire Mmembe that can survive…..go on let’s if you can survive just two weeks of publication. And your journalists are all casual I hear? Well, if I were you I would first clear the battleground and establish the ground rules with Hon Joyce Nonde-Simukoko.
And which business houses want to advertise with obvious and exposed heartless criminals like Mmembe? Okay, if you say HH, I understand……nabanakashi bonse ni hiho hiho hiho hiho hiho…bushe baba shani aba bantu?
Tendered the necessary papers as an afterthought is like closing the kraal after the cattle has been stolen.

Why is my comment awating moderation? Are you censoring me?
@Jay Jay, wizard or no wizard, she has the right to register and own The Mast. There’re many wizards in Zambia and some have been praised on LT. Some are laptop specialists and are real Zambians.
mushota mutinta is a beautiful woman with a very good sense of humour . appreciate and don’t be jealous of her. unless you are m”membes side chick nishi chakukalipa
illegality is illegality PERIOD
Good luck Madam, and congratulations. For you to open this MASK NEWSPAPER, you must have been mentally , intellectual and factually prepared for the battle with government. I believe the timing of opening the paper was not well scheduled. Your dear husband maybe should have paid everything in due time or if this is not about paying taxes, then he should have mended his relations with his close friends in government, before allowing you to open the MASK. And if PUSH COMES TO SHOVEL. JUST CLOSE THE PAPER UNTIL , YOUR HUBBY IS OUT OF HIGH WATER.. OTHER WISE GREAT JOB…
@Terrible your kind is a coward one. You hide behind others and expect them to fight your battles. One day they will realise it and you will see how much of puppies your kind are. Your kind is a kind of staunch bloodline thinking. Your kind never see any wrong in your own kind no matter how stinking it is. But we know you too much to be destructed by creatures that cannot stand on their own. Do you ever wonder why jobs that need loyalty are mostly taken by your kind? The answer is far from being trust. I hope I have pumped some sense in someone.
In Zambia some people hero-worship others instead of improving their lives no wonder we do’nt move as a country.No creativity,jelousy and envy is the order of the day.If you can’t compete with the mast just shut up.
It is very true what my father once said. politics really makes a fool of the wise. The comments above validates this theory splendidly. There seems no grey area when it comes to opinion in Zambia anymore. It’s either you are a PF staunch runner or a UPND supporters offering ‘ checks and balances’. Every news item only has two sides to the tale based on party lines. take the issue of the Post/Mast for example, however you may look at it, the PF guys will post with glee, supporting whatever ills Mmembe and his team may be facing -No analysis required whatsoever. The UPND supporters too, have their own affiliations and opinions. So whether they were calling for Kambilis arrest last month, today, they will claim that it is persecution by the govt that he is being pursued for corruption,…
We are glad Fred is having a blast of his life and we do know the young deceased American ex-football player from Atlanta was Mrs. M’mmebe’s first husband. He came over with an interest in seeing DGM re-open but then fell ill it got terminal at that time Fred and Mutinta’s affair was fall blown. Fred we all know you dislike our outgoing leader with a passion for his tribal stance HH; he bowed to your pressure and brought in a form 3 drop out GBM hoping to win over the north…we paid the price and we are still waiting for our ex leader to bid farewell….Please even as you have a ball pay your workers what u owe…2021 Z forward
You Fake UPND just concentrate on your failed pamafi party instead of pretending that you are UPND.Your double talk puts you straight in the dununa camp.
the woman she is cute indeed!!!!!
OUR COUNTRY NEEDS TO MOVE FORWARD U PEOPLE. THERE ARE BETTER THINGS OUR POLICE CAN DO THAN BEING USED FOR WITCH HUNT ALL THE TIME. LET BYGONES BE. ALREADY GOVT HAS ACCEPTED THAT NOT ALL IS WELL ECONOMICALLY. THE APPOINTMENT OF MUTATI AS FINANCE MINISTER CONFIRMS THAT PF HAS FAILED TO STEER THE SHIP TO THE SHORE. I KNOW OTHERS WILL DISPUTE BUT THERE IS NO POINT IN DOING SO AS THE TRUTH IS THERE FOR EVERYONE TO SEE. FOR NOW, LET US ALL PREACH PEACE & UNIT, OTHERWISE ALL EFFORTS BEING PUT IN PLACE WILL GO IN THE DRAIN
ECL is not ashamed that he comes from Chawama, the same place your hh wanted votes from. Where did your hh come, he did not come straight from new Kasama. Not all Mutintas make good wives, if so why is your hh chasing the widow Maureen Kakubo
With this uncontrolled lying next you will claim hh is chasing after your mother.
The mast started operating as unregistered company with ZRA up to now it is not registered, they have just tendered the necessary papers which are not even approved yet. so it is up to ZRA to say yes or not since the owner of mast are the same as post, they should first settle what they owe ZRA then the papers will be approved. The post have just changed the name to mast with the same owners, what belongs to Mutinta also belongs to Mmembe.
kkkkk fake is you spewing hatred why didn’t you stay in MMD/PF where you belong… the beauty of democracy is that it tells very few lies…I was, am and will be always UPND. We keep losing the presidential race because of those who think insults, fighting, and bringing in corrupt grade 10 drop outs can win an election…well the results are there to see…I will remain UPND! I am not quitter and will only rest when my outgoing and losing presidential candidate HH steps down or addresses the party on the way forward…we have arrived in Chipata to visit Comrade Chuzu the ones HH deems political prisoners…Zambia forward 2021….new leadership
