United Progressive People (UPP) Saviour Chishimba has apologized to President Edgar Chagwa Lungu on behalf of the entire United Party for National Development (UPND) leadership for the embarrassment and humiliation caused to him over the Mongu Road security saga.
Dr. Chishimba said in a statement that the United Progressive People (UPP) is founded on the true fear of God and that is why his philosophical foundation is embedded in the belief and trust in the Supremacy and Sovereignty of the Almighty God, adding that in his political journey he always seek Biblical rather than political correctness.
He further noted that his party is a progressive nationalist believing in politics for service and equal opportunities for all irrespective of tribe, religion, creed, race and cultural beliefs.
And Dr. Chishimba also noted that the UPP was founded on the cornerstones of love, freedom, unity, peace, liberty, justice, equality and the rule of law as the code of authority and governance for the general enhancement of integral human development and national prosperity.
He affirmed that it is against the given background that as nationalists party have decided to apologize to the head of state for the embarrassment and humiliation caused to him in Mongu road security saga which led to the incarceration of the opposition leader Hakainde Hichilema.
Dr. Chishimba said the president was exposed to danger by the Zambia Police, intelligence officers, Presidential handlers and that should never ever again in Zambia.
The UPP leader who seized an opportunity to humbly appeal to the President of Zambia and Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces to find it in his heart to prevail over the police and release Mr Hakainde Hichilema for Zambia to continue being the beacon of peace and harmony in the region.
And Dr. Chishimba has proposed the appointment of an independent Commission of Inquiry to thoroughly investigate and render a report to the President of Zambia so that the people of Zambia can know the truth about the Mongu saga.
“This will also serve as a lesson for future generations and the police service is not better placed to investigate this matter because of conflict of interest, they are potential culprits as well” Dr. Chishimba said
Meanwhile, Republican Progressive party (RPP) President James Lukuku has said he hopes the UPP President Saviour Chishimba was not apologizing over his issues with the Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA).
“I hope you are not apologizing over your issues with ZRA” Lukuku said
Weak people revenge.
Strong people Forgive.
Intelligent people ignore.
Where do you put your leaders?
@The Real Quest
Answer to your question is:
In all of the above.
BA Saviour Chishimba, WHY RELEASE HH? THE GUY IS UNDERGOING COURTS OF LAW PROCESSES WHY SHOULD HE BE EELEASED BEFORE THE COURTS OF LAW FINISH WITH HIM. IS HH THE ONLY PERSON IN PRISON FOR YOU TO CALL FOR ONLY HIS RELEASE. HH IS NOT A BETTER PRISONER. IN FACT HE IS THE WORST PRISONER AS HE ONLY THINKS OF HIMSELF AND NOT OTHERS. THERE COULD BE JUSTICE IN RELEASE ONE SUSPECT WITHOUT HIM COMPLETING THE TRIAL(S) IN THE EYES OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND THOSE WHO ARE UNDER GOING SIMILAR TRIALS. BA Saviour Chishimba, DON’T THINGS FOR THE SAKE OF PUBLICITY.
Whilst Lungu clearly stated that he’d never interfere with a court case, he ordered ZCCM-HI to drop the lawsuit against FIRST QUANTUM. Edgar Lungu told the state investment company to drop its fraud case against the country’s biggest copper producer. Is this self contradicting.
@Kabova the difference is that judgement has been made in the case of ZCCM IH and as for the HH cases the president can make a decision after judgement and sentence. See there’s no contradiction.
Facts are that;
1. HH insulted the police. Those who know his arrogance will agree
2. His lawyers heard the insults and know hh insulted but trying to lie. This lie is allowed in earthly courts but will land them in hell soon. Jack Mwimbu has not disputed hearing the insults and who was being insulted
Big deal! crucify him already. Christian country?
Why did HH insult the police? Just out of the blew?
Some 500 thugs in balaclavas come at night and trash your house, steal your food, defecate and urinate in your bed, steal your belongings and repeatedly gas you over 14 hours, and you are supposed to come out smiling at them? Only in PFooIish Zambia!
Good intentions, but you can’t apologise on behalf of a party you do not belong to. Ask Katuka, nalumango or the fugitive ‘running mate’ to do that on behalf of upnd
There is no party created by Northern Rhodesia has ever talked in favor of HH and this demonstrates that our friends are up to divide and rule. All cases followed up in court clearly shows that it’s just hate of one man the country just because he is from an unwanted region
Keep on with your hatred.
Is UPND aware that Dr. Chishimba is apologising on their be
half?
Why apologise for something which was done deliberately? The real embarrassment was the reception HH received in Mongu, hence the fixing of a motorcade blocking. Can a sensible person really believe that a presidential motorcade can be blocked?
Saviour, have the Tongas, sorry, UPND accepted to apologise
The.commission of inquiry should never be formed because reports are never given. It’s a share waste of public funds…tell us about the Chongwe commission on Borotse, The polical violence commission, the ICC commission,ZRA commision report,ZAMTEL,the list is.endless.All the reports have not be given. SINCE PFCAME IN POWER MAYBE ONLY ONE COMMISSION REPORT WAS GIVEN AND IT DIDN’T FAVOR THOSE IN POWER
That is a good move ba Chishimba but it is not you who is supposed to apologize but the Upnd. So tell the to apologize and we have a listening President and HH will be forgiven. Humble yourselves Upnd cadets your god made a big mistake.
Has saviour chishimba ever apologized on behalf of pf, for skyrocketing mealie meal prices and poor medical services, Lusaka city council has just confirmed that Lusaka city has almost a thousand deaths in less than three weeks, has he ever apologized to Zambians for the police brutality, NO. So who the fvxk is it to apologize on behalf of UPND, my UPND. Fxvk that.
Saviour Saviour, we told you that the Tongas (Sorry, UPND) wont be impressed with your ‘sympathy’
THE DEVIL = PF. UPND can not bow to the devil. UPND = one zambia one nation.
Boza UPND = tribalism.
Very old news item.
Comment:You just waste your time Ba chishimba naimwe apologise for what?
Comment:Ba Chishimba naimwe you are just wasting your time apologising for what?
Where z Mushota to lead us on this matter?
@11 China, so your interpretation of one zambia one is that only a specific tribe can lead UPND and all bembas are monkeys in a maize field as per one person now in correction and his sponsor ackson sejani? Very strange reasoning indeed, but then you are UPNDonkeys.
If we use Dr Chishimba’s logic then UPND should apologize for the Stolen Election and the unheard Presidential Petition. The Motorcade Incident was a Set Up to frame HH and slap him with a Treason Charge which is unbailable. HH is being punished for beating Lungu at the 2016 Elections,Petitioning the Stolen Election and Refusing to recognize Lungu as President. Its not a Crime to win elections and beating the Incumbent President. It is not a crime to Petition the Election Results and neither is it a Crime to refuse to recognize a Vote Thief as a Legitimate Winner of the Election and President. Period.
UPND also apologised on behalf of PF when Sata told bush off. Did they mean well or they wanted to embarrass PF? Chishimba is following HHs footsteps. Tomorrow it will me apologising on behalf of HH to UPND faithfuls for failing to lead the party to erection victory since the Great Mazoka, and to Zambians for looting their mines and companies during privatisation
The poice were trespassig on hisprivate property without a search warrant whatsoever, so you xpecty for a cup of Cibantu or maheu? Nop! Andreading the article above, I do not see where Chishimba is apologising for HH, if anything’ he is apologising on behalf of the Police, check this extract out:
“the president was exposed to danger by the Zambia Police, intelligence officers, Presidential handlers and that should never ever again in Zambia.”
Apologising to an insecure egocentric like lungu is a waste of energy
Ba GBM , where is he? how is he doing with his limb?
Mushota – you Could be PHD but you are out of your head.
Your comments are bad.
Useless clown, why should you apologise on behalf of someone who still believes he did the right thing?? You should be worried that ZRA is coming for you. Or maybe you are trying to BORROW a lawyer from hh and his people???
Chishimba fear has gripped you, considering how you have been conducting yourself of late. We know most of you thought ECL cannot act to your nonsense, just behave and the law won’t visit you.
Divide & rule – you are still complaining about the MM price, how much is a bottle of beer and how many do you take to get drunk? You want the price of MM to cost may be 35 -50 what about the farmer how much is he going to sell is maize at? Have never heard anyone complaining about how expensive clothes, wigs, lip stick, shoes, even plaiting of hair is expensive but all these you manage giving your girlfriends money to buy but just for K85.00 a bag of mm you complain bitterly. Anyway things are moving with time don’t expect to buy mm at 35 even if we have maize in abundance. Do you know how…
Cont….Do you know how much a bag of fertilizer, seed etc. costs? Not mentioning labour. As for other things Rome was not built in a day so it is up to you and me to contribute to the development of this country.
Mushota NWS misses you very much can you show up. NWS leave Mushota alone she is a darling of this blog.
