THE Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has said it has made significant progress in investigating alleged corruption by former Information and Broadcasting Services minister Chishimba Kambwili.

ACC public relations manager Timothy Moono said that investigations into the matter were ongoing and the Commission would soon update the nation on the matter.

Mr Moono said this when he responded to a Press query.

“I wish to advise that the Commission has made a lot of progress in the investigations which are still on-going and, in due course, it will inform the nation on the status of the inquiry,” Mr Moono said.

The ACC last month opened an inquiry into corruption allegations against Dr Kambwili.

One of the subjects of the inquiry is the Kambwili Estates, a multi-million dollar villa located in Luanshya on the controversial land belonging to Luanshya Golf Club.

Another set of luxury villas belonging to Dr Kambwili have been constructed near Mitengo area on the Ndola-Mufulira road.

The other subject of investigations is the possible abuse of office authority in relation to Dr Kambwili’s dealings as Director of Mwamona Investments which has been receiving many contracts from both the public and private sectors without delivering the works.

The source said Dr Kambwili also purchased trucks and a brand new Range Rover for his UK based wife valued at over K1, 850, 000 from Alliance Motors in Lusaka and the car remains packed is and only driven by his wife when she comes to Zambia.

The ACC is also expected to probe Dr Kambwili’s purchase of high end properties in London under his children and wife.

  1. And all hell is loose against Kambwili. Why is African politics like this kanshi? He was corrupt yet you let him until he fell short of ECL favor.

    • Eshhh that kind of accumulation of wealth is too much by virtue of using one’s position. Let the Law take its course. No sacred cows if there person is found with a case so be it, if not then he will be exonerated.
      Next we want to see GBV being investigated for his abuse of office during the period he was Minister of Defence- awarding of contracts to his daughter’s company and other corrupt acts.

    • ACC, quickly!This vulgar & divisive PF bandit should face the full extent of the law.
      Bandit Kambwili thought he was clever, alas. Once a bandit, always a bandit. What is taking the ACC & their incompetent PF police so long to bring all the MPs found guilty by the Con~Court to justice?
      Don’t wait for visionless Lungu & PF bandits to direct independent institutions. Otherwise, ACC do the work without wasting time with your pronunciations which seem to be holding shallow waters. Kambwili was fired for corruption by blind Lungu, clearly visionless Edgar Da Gama Lungu did his part & now the police including the courts should do their job.
      Chimbokaila awaits bandit Kambwili & free Mwaliteta with other UPND members incarcerated for protecting peoples votes.

    • @2020vision
      That was what PF looked for when GBM fell short of MCS glory and later glory of ECL. GBM, although we say that he is never been to school, he is a smart man yes street smart. He knew his position would make him money but was careful when it came to tenders. Yes he had a upper hand on tender process but it is possible he had inside knowledge of the rates required and he will tell Sibongile to bid. And the procurement knowing it is the boss daughters company, they would accept offer. He made himself clean. GBM is not like a kabova of kambwili capacity. GBM had money before politics unlike abena kambwili kabova from black mountains. So it is easy to know that this kambwili money is looted.

    • Much as it is welcome news to ask our leaders to explain their sudden stinking riches, it is sad to note that the ACC seem to be on a leash and acts only when unleashed by the President.

    • Hahahaha! This investigation is a farce and Kambwili will walk. And this is this is why;

      1. Is there a clause in the ZPPA procurement framework that prohibits civil servants and public office bearers from doing business with the state (As is the case in SA)?
      2. Where is the investigative intelligence in all this? If it were in the Mwanawasa days, facts about this case would have been well investigated BEFORE the public would know. Investigators would have already been to London and collaborated with the UK law enforcement authorities by now.
      3. Who was managing the government projects that Kambwili’s company was awarded, and what did they do about his poor performance (enforcement of Contractual penalty clauses)? Were these people also part of the corruption and therefore…

    • … authorised payment for poorly done or NON-EXISTENT work?

      4. Has Kambwili been ordered to demolish all the sub-standard work he did and properly reconstruct it at his OWN cost?
      5. how do the construction rates (unit prices) in Kambwili’s contracts compare with the market-related ones? Were these contracts economically awarded at best advantage to government (the people of Zambia)?
      6. Who were Kambiwili’s comptetitors in these tenders and what was their track record and tender prices?
      7. How old are Kambwili’s companies, and how did they obtain the required NCC grades in the time they’ve been in construction? Did they meet all the requirements for registration in the applicable work categories and grades, and even had Financial statements?
      8. How are Kambwili’s Tax Returns…

    • If the ACC was working as it should be, All politicians will be in prison, all top civil savants, most police offices, More tha half the population of Zambia and lastly all the people working for the ACC itself, Period.

      The only people free of corruption in Zambia are the under 5 and the unborn babies, This country steaks of corruption which they have even embraced as chekelako, The question i ask my self is, Does Christianity work or what, If more than 90% of a country say they are Christians and then corruption levels are 97%, who are these people doing this vice then

    • so Kambwili will stick to the bone called PF till he loses the bid to become PF president. if he chooses to jump ship, still he is in trouble with ECL. catch 22 for him. the best is for him to hang in there till his sins are whitewashed from the zambians memory – then boom he vies for president in 2021

  2. Nothing will come out of this. PF are thieves. Chimbwili’s share of the Eurobonds is a little more visible. Lungu’s share at K23m was substantially understated. What about Scarface Kalaba and his properties, including in Balmoral/Linda? What about Alexander Chikanda? What about the other thieves?

    • Kambwilis crime is not corruption, if that was the case all of these others would be under investigation too.

      Kambwilis real crime is that he was stuupid enough to write his own name on all the stolen goods!

      “Doctor” Kambwili will face the music because of his arrogance and dull thinking, and his belief that he was so important that he was above the LAW!

      Meanwhile all these other thieves, including Lungu with his 23 million, will get away scot free just because the ACC is politically controlled and too corrupt and incompetent to do the job they are paid to do!

    • Chikwanda stole big time in the time he was in government. As purse keeper pf the government coffers he allowed abject mismanagement by the rank and file. Our economy got into a spin and we feel the after effects because of the rot that happened during Chikwanda’s watch at the Finance Ministry. In serious governments he would have been called to account for the plight we find ourselves in. What he did is a treasonable offence!

  3. Am sure that significant progress stage mr moono you are talking about is real,by the way why should you even wait for quarries for you to update the nation over there suspected stollen taxe.it is your duty to update the nation every time because everyone has keen interest in knowing where were their moneis went.

  4. Why is it so significant to describe the Range Rover as ‘packed’ (which, you 1mbeciles, could mean ‘parked’ for all I know)? In Zambia a business spins off profits pretty quick because of the exorbitant prices of everything (don’t trust me, just look around the region – Angola has the money to afford those ridiculous prices they have). I am also interested to see those 500 houses that have been mentioned in earlier reports. This Stone Age politics will not subsist in this era. Someone is going to have his a.ss burnt at the rate we are going and it sure might not be Kambwili!

    • i agree with you, what has the parking of the car got to do with corruption? sounds like ACC is a katemba organisation

  5. Mwamona nomba mudala mwagwela muli tobwa, mwamona ama investments yenu yamiletelela. Words can be so powerful.

  6. No sympathy for Kambwili for destroying free press in Zambia.Where are you going to tell your story and spill the beans now? To qoute you ushele muli ” mwamoneni”. Excitement with power does not pay and always backfires. We know you are not alone in primitive accumulation through corruption but how are we to know about those who are still in favour of plot one without free press.

  7. Kambwili stole the luanshya golf course so that he can feed his goats and export to Saudi Arabia.
    Ask Edward Lungu on the deal to export 1million goats to Saudi Arabia. This buffoon C.Ks goats are the first in line but the corrupt Kambwili refused to share the profits of goats eating luanshya golf course grass.
    Instead of promoting golf, Kambwili is feeding his goats.

  8. Kambwili (and other public leaders) stole from Zambians and fooled us to think Tongas (or tribalism) are the problem. The real tribes are: the rich thieves and the poor Zambian. Open your eyes!!!

  9. If this is not greed I do not know how to call it. It is like an angel who say I will ascend above the heights of the clouds: I will be like the most High. These are the men that desire to servant hood. It is the educated people with greed desire in the government top administration who have let down the an uneducated and Zambia. Many greed educated individuals have got away from being jailed because of greed learned lawyers who make most cases impossible to be proved beyond reasonable doubt. Do police officers and other security officers need to get a permission from the president to be prosecuted? If that is true then it is the president who decides who has to be prosecuted. Those who are prosecuted are saved by greed lawyers.

  10. Ms Mwanakatwe should just wait for the main Concourt Appeal instead of appealing on the refusal to grant stay of execution. Its the High Court Judge’s discretion to grant or refuse the stay of execution. How will the Concourt Judge rule on the Refusal without hearing the main Appeal? This Appeal on the Refusal is frivolous. Let her wait for the main Appeal after the by-election is in 90 days. This lady is power hungry and can’t see life without being a Minister. She is obviously looking for the Concourt magic.

    • @Skeleton. hahaha! ama guyz aba, paliba insoselo. now you have transferred visionless tag on me! It used to be for our president lol. We can’t all shower rain of rocks on Mr Kambwili. there should be someone to defend Mbwili.

  11. Mr Kambwili has been in business and has property in London long before he joined the then Mr Sata’s PF. Therefore, he can afford to build those cheap flats in pictures. If his company did not complete works of the government funded contracts, he should refund or complete the works. And talking about an automobile Range Rover, what is a range to him? They are like locusts all over Zambia, civil servants drive such automobiles.

    • Luapula boy is also visionless. I can understand that the 7 days load shedding in luapula last week has inflicted blindness on this boy.
      Before joining PF of bandits, Kambwili was busy destroying & stealing rail lines for scrap metal as a gerapo. C.K is a bandit & now the full extent of the law is visiting that tribalistic & divisive glutton.

    • @peter njobvu Yes mbuya I know brandeee new!!. If you say it’s in USD my jaws will be dropping. not in our currency naimwe. From you peter njobvu, we just need solutions for our free falling economy. we have been load shedded for 9 days now here in Luapula.

    • before 2011, how many workers did Mwamona have? after 2011, how many workers does Mwamona have? Research, and let us all know…

  12. I believe they are a lot of smarter ways to invest, to the extent of even plastering your name pa gate goes to show the extent of this mans ego, why not just build silently? Kambwili’s downfall has been plotted only by himself and his larger than life ego, his greed to steal part of Luanshya Golf Club, from the very people who put him public office also shows his lack of concern for their recreational well being, in short Kambwili has not just raped his constituency, but the entire Zambian populace, by virtue of him being an abuser of a public office.

  13. People building these flats is not that much a big issue. He did not spend outside he might have earned in the entire period he has been an MP and Minister. Some of us simpler but enterprising people have done more than that.

    • Are you a nursery school teacher where you expect kids to believe everything you say? This is an adult world baba

    • In Zambia alone whoever is better that you is a taxpayer thief. There are people who are not politicians who are far much better than Kambwili.

  14. These PF00L thieves make LIATO (stole K2Billion – unrebased), Mandandi (K2Billion – unrebased), Remmy Mushota& Katyoka (wanted to steal Billions in trunks) or even Ringo Phiri look (who stole K369million then) like Angels.

    LUNGU stole K23MILLION in 1 year alone. How much will he steal in 5years? Over K100MILLION. As the Bembas say, uwakalema taleka

    The 1st Step ACC was supposed to take is freeze all Chibwili’s accounts & confiscate all his properties until he proves that they r not proceeds of crimes. Coz right not he’s withdrawn all his money & stashed it in under a slab on a farm like Kingpin LIATO.

  15. And when Trump says that Africa needs to be recolonized you insult him.what kind of a leader you steals from his own people and invest in foreign economies.if at all he stole or if indeed he gave himself contracts by virtue of him being minister at the expense of struggling Zambian contractors let the law take its course.

    • Please don’t quote this @lombe, this is fake news; Trump did not say that! We must begin to really seek out veracity of reports so that we do not prey on those that have no access to the many facilities that we have now taken for granted. On the ACC, the history of their performance informs me that caution should be exercised before we make definitive and subjective commentaries.

  16. We wish ACC would be prompt in investigating other cases also..
    Fertiliser contracts???supply of GMO maize by nyiombo investment during MMD government, supply of SUB-STANDARD FERTILIZER (Rotten fertiliser to the poor) and getting full payment for that from the government. …many etc. .

  17. @House Fly, indeed this is Africa and there’s more to it. This madness is in all politicians, ruling and opposition. On one hand, we all notice how that madness has caused the govt to suddenly become alive to Kambwili’s rot, having abetted the scourge all along. On the other hand, watch how diseased Kambwili will in turn call the PF govt corrupt and incompetent, having been at the core of that very govt himself and been part to the spirit of collective responsibility. Worse still, see the opposition call Kambwili an angel as he runs into their arms, having all along called a mad dog a mad dog. See, my friend House Fly, there’s more to Africa than can be blamed on govt alone! Politics can be a dirtier game!

  18. We have been telling ACC this for over 5 years now! Because Lungu had a feud with Kambwili is when they want to act but failed miserably when it was happening before it got worse. What is there to investigate when the evidence is there. His finances compared to what he earns are far less than the properties he owns so how can he afford all he has? Gomez Brothers in Ndola will give you all the proof you need concerning the road contracts Kambwili used to give them, then demand half the money. ACC while you are on it go for everyone in PF and not the one Lungu hates because they both were competing to be president. Who was paying his children’s school fees? Also investigate his wife and children.

  19. Be prudent. You guys at ACC have a lot on your plate to dispose. Enjoy your journey to ………coupled with so much allowances but slow results. In Botsana two weeks is more than enough for such cases. Why does it take so long with our ACC?

  20. Only a full cycle ***** would build grand castles like these on land he has no title to. The Luanshya Golf Club should ask him to uproot the houses and take them elsewhere. He made too much noise this imbecile, icinangwa nomba chisanga muli “mwamoneni nomba”. Let the UK also confisticate the properties he bought in the UK because they are acquired using stolen loot. The chap’s ways of life are as ugly as his face, damn!

  21. This also reminds me of how that girl Nawakwi robbed the country clean with the Carlingstonegate scandal, Guy Scott with the pig Swine fever, Kaunda with diseal from grass, Sata with Avondale and Merzaf Flats etc etc. The root in Zambian politics crosses all gender and generation divide lines, mu masholi kaufela mina!

  22. EASTERN PROVINCE PF CHAIRPERSON HOLDS PRESS BRIEFING, FATES JOURNALIST AND BRIBES THEM WITH K200 EACH
    The practice of giving bribes to journalists in Zambia to help manipulate their editorial content has taken another twist as Eastern Province PF Chairperson Andrew Z Lubusha yesterday on Monday the 5th of December held a Press Briefing at Eastern Comfort Lodge of Kalongwezi in Chipata where he treated the Journalists to a rare luncheon and later on gave each journalist present personally a K200.
    Being bribed by politicians or corporate managers and how this whole process makes it increasingly difficult to separate journalism from propaganda from public relations for illegitimate private gain. One can only harbour guesses as to who exactly those journalists are who have sold themselves…

  23. If minister/an MP can’t afford these who can then afford them? Just last week it was announced that all MPs are paid Sitting Allowance of ZMW 10,000.00 per week plus ZMW 30,000.00 monthly salary both earnings are tax free save for ZMW 2,500.00 Monthly Party Contribution to their respective parties except for Independent MPS who walk away with cool ZMW 70,000.00 monthly. Sponsored MPs walk away with ZMW 67,500.00 monthly. The only case he may face is that of obtaining contracts dubiously & he should dance to the music of ACC. In Zambia our culture doesn’t encourage savings or investments, even if you have an opportunity to earn money people would you buy them beer & die a popper the way most former MPs & Ministers, CEOs have died.

    • True Zambian. You shed some useful light. I would add that the problem with the article is that it says nothing about how his projects have been financed. Surely, that has to be in the public domain and does not need an ACC investigation.

      For example, could he have borrowed under a corporate umbrella? Could it be an injection from foreign, or indeed, Zambian partners? Look at what Trump was able to do over the years? And based on my own experience and travels across Africa and in Zambia $10,000 can go a long way. Belief makes the difference. I have met marketeers in Rwanda or DRC who have built unbelievable structures, and of course over many years. Only for the sons to enjoy their fruit.

  24. From casual observation Kambwili is not the only one building in Zambia. It becomes difficult to separate emotion on corruption and ambition of citizens. I am no great fan of kambwili’s, but I can’t help feel that we are too mired in jealousy here. Classic of us as a nation.

    I just pray that this all turns out to be politically motivated. What if the project is financed by loans or simply his partners. He may well have partners who untypically makes six or seven digit figures that are interested in investing in Zambia. By the way this is happening across Africa, and not just Zambia.

    As for the vehicle that’s $185,000. Probably affordable by more Zambians than one can imagine. Poverty makes most of us exaggerate in our minds the impossibility of everything.

    • @ Cha Cha Cha 23, You have hit the nail on the head. “Poverty makes most of us exaggerate in our minds the impossibility of everything.” Zambian Opposition Politics is actually responsible for poverty. What they have been & are teaching their supporters right now is that there is nothing that you can achieve unless you are a tax payer plunderer by alleging that what he has accumulated now is impossible to achieve. In the same economy foreigners like Chinese, Indians, etc come walking & end up building hotels whilst us we are busy witch hunting each other. If just as an MP he can accumulate ZMW 70,000.00 monthly which works out to ZMW 4,200,000.00 for 5 year term (70,000x12x5) minus interest & investments, what can stop him from acquiring what he has accumulated now?

  25. When you are come unto the land which the LORD your God gives you, and shall possess it, and shall dwell therein, and shall say, I will set a king over me, like all the nations that are about me;

    15You shall surely set him king over you, whom the LORD your God shall choose: one from among your brethren shall you set king over you: you may not set a stranger over you, who is not your brother.

    16But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses: since as the LORD has said unto you, you shall return no more that way again.

    17Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.

    18And it shall be, when he sits upon the…

  26. This is the chap who said Jesus can not win an election in Southern province if he contested with HH. These are the repercussions of using mwana lesa,s name mufyabupuba. By the time this drama will come to an end, Kambwili,s neck will come back. Sakala nyongo, pompwe, zimandola, kembo!

  27. This is a failed state. Simple. A state of shameless citizens. What do you expect if a country honours a thief as more clever and intelligent and yet hard working civil servants do not get any recognition. Sometime back, i remember very well beautiful women only accepting to be married to Kaponyas, Mishanga sellers, buss conductors and buss drivers. If you are common teacher, you could only manage to go back to the village and marry from there and bring the lady in town. This is the country known as Zambia. Stealing is honourable to you. Other African countries are progressing and wining the hearts of investors to invest, but in you case the investor is even the one who comes to tell you that, “Your excellence the borrowing you intent to raise cannot meet standard requirements because…

  28. “Your excellence the borrowing you intent to raise cannot meet standard requirements because of reported high levels of corruption’. That is when the leadership jumps. Now tell me. Who is the worst thief between the one that steals from the contracts and the one who has stolen and hijacked the WILL of the people??? ANSWER PLEASE.

  29. The question I ask is: “Is it only Kambwili who accumulated wealth by virture of him being in the rulling party and holding a ministerial position”? There are a lot of them right now who have accumulated a lot of wealth because of their positions. I feel it is unfair for Edgar to instruct the corrupt ani-corruption commission to investigate one person only when all of them, including Edgar, are corrupt. They all have to explain their accumulated wealth in a very short space of time. The likes of Jean Kapata, Mumbi Phiri, Edgar Lungu, Kaizer Zulu, Emmanuel Chilubanama, Amos Chanda; and many more. The corrupt anti-corruption commission is just being used to oppress a person who has fallen out of favour with Edgar Lungu otherwise the whole bunch of them in the PF are stinking corrupt.

    • @Questionner….the answer is everything has a beginning like 0,1,2,3..now the issue is on Kambwili so let the ACC find him out if ever they will, and then proceed onto others who have equally plundered our economy. But CK should be prosecuted first. No sentiments and no stupid emotions. Go for him and jail him. There is so much evidence not to. I am sure many of you blogging here live outside Zambia. I ask how many of you have built or accumulated such wealth because you are abroad and are supposedly earning lots of money???

  30. WHAT IS THERE TO INVESTIGATE WHEN WE HAVE SEEN ALL THE EVIDENCE. JUST GET THIS FAT OAF AND PUT HIM BEFORE A FIRING SQUAD AND SOWETO MARKET AND SHOOT HIM DOWN THE GHANA OR NIGERIAN WAY. DO THE SAME TO GBV AND UNDER FIVE. THERE WILL BE NO THIEVING THEREAFTER.

  31. Investigate what???? This chap should be in PRISON as conclusion of evidence complilation is going on!!!He had no estate prio to PF and today he can construct 200 houses AT ONCE !! Even Trump couldnt afford that with the million dollars he got from his father.
    Lock him or Hang him high the prick.
    Doctorate in thieving he got sure. These are the f000ls that tanish Bemba name. Chi kolwe

  32. Africa needs to be recolonized! Even if Trump never said that but the fact is Africans cant rule themselves. it is a continent with the most untapped resources yet it is the poorest. There is surely something very wrong with a black skin. Kambwili’s case wont go anywhere, it is already dead and buried. in Africa prisons are meant for the poor who are hungry who steal a biscuit or a neighbours chicken and end up in jail for many years! Liato for example was found with a huge amount of money which up to now he has failed to explain the source of that money found buried at his farm. Today he is free and all the cash returned to him and he is busy singing Lungu praises. Talk of the so many people with serious crimes that Lungu has pardoned without serving even a quarter of their long…

  33. Don’t expect anything from these investigations. Where were the govt agents when 200 villas were raising? Range Rover? are you sure it’s not under parliamentary loan? How long has family been in U.K. and just ask competent U.K. Agency to handle, don’t need to travel but knowing per dm

  34. The tricky with this case is the fact Kambwili knows the other thieves within the PF government that he stole with and shared the Euro bonds spoils. All this dilly dallying mumbo jumbo by the ACC i trying to tread carefully and navigate the repercussions this would cause. Definitely if Kambwili won’t be muzzled (for fear of his life), he may just spill the beans on all.

    The amount of incompetence by the ACC and the Police is staggering… they wait for instructions and then take forever to conclude simple cases. Just follow the trail of cash and you will discover the source, simple as!

  35. Progress…..kuti wapapa bwana Moono i want to know what is true among the allegations against hournorable CK. Dont talk to the press if you have nothing progress can mean anything and more names must be brought forward because i can see the who would be criminals cementing their wrongs..

  36. So you wanted him to innvest in other countries and hide all his money in the off shore accounts? I’m just happy he’s developing his own country by building estates that are rare in Zambia. He’s improving the scenery of our dead and dirty cities and he also loves his wife. Let he who has never cheated or stolen in any way cast the first stone. Viva imbwili

  37. @ Cha Cha Cha 23, You have hit the nail on the head. “Poverty makes most of us exaggerate in our minds the impossibility of everything.” Zambian Opposition Politics is actually responsible for poverty.

    • Exactly my point. land rover for the wifeeeeee! He bought that thing way back before he was even in cabnet. Before 2011.

    • @TRUE ZAMBIAN, you are spot on!! This negative thinking that has been inculcated in most Zambian minds has destroyed the country. People fail to think outside the box. They are simply brainwashed thinking there is nothing one can do unless he joins politics. Shame on you if you are among those!!!

    • Politics of poverty. Kabwili hammered UPND left right and center to a point where the mighty PF won the elections fair and square. The poverty stricken UPND cadres can’t believe that other people can make money not just Hakaivotela Humwine

  38. All of you against CK are fake. You want to compare yourself to CK as lazy as you are. Honestly speaking, can that so called Kambwili Estates be a “multi-million dollar” project? LT, you are just bent on destroying the hard-working man CK. As one writer said earlier, CK was more comfortable than most of you lazy chaps before he even became an MP.
    Authorities can find a case against you if they just want to, whether you believe you are clean. It’s like a traffic police office at a road block. You might believe that your vehicle is roadworthy, but if the police officer just wants to pin you he will definitely find a fault in one way or the other.

  39. How shocking to note some Zambians defending shameless thief Kambwili.
    A thief and corrupted politician who steals from the people who are supposed to be served is worse than an ordinary sinner. It is said in the book that it would be better such a person is tied to a heavy stone and thrown in the lake/sea. That is a serious indictment. Kambwili fits that just on one charge viz; Mwamona his company siphoning government money without building or providing services, meanwhile poor Zambians are dying in hospitals without medicines, schools in deplorable state, bad roads etc all because of immoral, insatiable greed of Kambwili. The crimes Kambwili has committed are unforgivable to those who have lost their loved ones due to lack of money in hospitals. Kambwili is not the only one, he simply…

  40. On our side here will forward this article to western news media BBC, CNN, New York Post etc so as this becomes a factor in negotiating for aid to Zambia. Kambwili and other thieves should be made to account for their wealth and not just posture around that they are rich. They are shameless thieves like late Chiluba. Its a pity that some regions in Zambia justify theft and take pride in it, its part of their DNA and Zambians know them as thieves.

  41. IN AS MUCH AS HE IS NOT MY FAVORITE, HE IS INNOCENT TILL PROVEN GUILTY BY THE LAW. SECONDLY, IT IS DIFFICULTY TO PROBE THIS CASE SUCCESSFULLY IN THAT, ITS INSIDE THE SPIDER WEB. TO GET THERE, U MUST BE WILLING TO BE CAUGHT IN THE WEB YOURSELF. WHEN ONE FINGER STEALS OIL, IT SOILS UP THE OTHER FINGER. WHERE DOES THIS LEAVE MAJORITY OF PF TOP BRASS?

  42. Just watch how Kasaiz are trying to defend one of their own under the guise of “ubomba mwibala emo alila!”. Ladies and gentlemen, imibombelo mwibala ya misango Chimbwili bu Sakala! Not even in 10 life times would he have been able to amass such wealth, never. The govt must make an example of this stinking thief by making him face the firing squad. We are tired of these Zairean Katangese Kabokes stealing from govt coffers all the time, we shall never develop like this.

  43. wilasakamana Kambwili you are not guilty until ishamfumu sha sosa, ACC has just made progress by cataloguing your properties! Sata was jailed on trumped charges and these arm-chair critics unleashed unpalatable on him. the clueless man very typical of weak leadership thinking Zambians would celebrate the way they celebrated when Sata fired Winter Kabimbaa!

  44. A thief is a thief and Kambwili is such. Those who want to ‘lubulula’ him have a theft propensity. A thief is an undesirable element whose place is a cage. Kambwili is needs to be caged now or near future. After all he is a Katangalise from Congo. Sakala nyongo ububi.

  45. I DO NOT LIKE KAMBWILI AT ALL BUT I THINK HE HAS BEEN TARGETED. WHAT DID HE REALLY DO? THERE ARE MANY MANY MORE THAT HAVE PLUNDERED THIS NATION BUT ARE BEEN SUPPORTED. ALL EX MINISTERS AND PRESENT ONES SHOULD DECLARE THEIR ASSESTS INCLUDING THE PRESIDENT AND LET THEM ALL GIVE AN ACCOUNT OF THEIR WEALTH AND WHERE THE MONEY CAME FROM. EVEN PF PARTY BOSSES TOO.

  46. @ hh is a mason; why are you attacking the UPND? they are not ACC; attack the person or people that set ACC on kambwili; you are a dunderhead or maybe your lack of the English language eluded you in this article; let s blog with some sense;

  47. Kambwili should take a leaf from the calamitous tragedy that befell his wayward Katangese uncle Ben Mwila. Boma ni Boma, this Chagwa he is trying to fight will finish him up and he could end up dying a broken and broke man in a hospice in Mwansabombwe or wherever it is he hail from in Central Africa. This “Old Stinking Kaca” of theirs of “natolelefye” awe sure “butole”. They have to be inoculated with a bitter dose of medicine to cure them all from “busakalanyongo”. Just how could god endower some people with brains but these Katangese he gives such a stinking gift of “busakalanyongo”? Awe sure, this stinks of God, its not fair.

  48. HOW MUCH DO THESE PEOPLE GET PER MONTH TO ACCUMULATE SUCH PROPERTIES. OR WHAT TYPE OF BUSINESS CAN SPIN SUCH PROFITS TO AFFORD SUCH WEALTH IN A SHORT TIME. AS A ZAMBIAN I NEED TO KNOW HOW MY SERVANT CK MANAGED THIS. I JUST HOPE IT IS NOT, “ABSOLUTE POWER CORRUPTS ABSOLUTELY.” ..YES. PERFECTLY, MAYBE IT IS TRUE INDEED.

  49. This is good news and Zambians must fight corruption aggressively. But why should the ACC only target Kambwili. In such grand corruption, we know that he did not act alone but with a string of other white collared criminals. Why is the ACC failing to arrest Gilbert aphorism and his accomplices in the Judiciary, the Police and others who stole my Brans New Jeep which cost me over $100,000 and household belong Nags which cost me over $200,000. I did not join the UN to become an opportunity for such bandits abusing state machinery and the justice system. We need more arrests and the state should surrender to the ICC as this is sabotage.
