The Evangelical Fellowship of Zambia (EFZ) has distanced itself from the joint statement issued by the Church mother bodies in Lusaka. EFZ outgoing board vice chairperson Peter Ndhlovu says the EFZ board was not consulted and represented at Kapingila house.

Bishop Ndhlovu has charged that Bishop Telesphore Mpundu’s statement has potential to cause anarchy in the country, adding that the church should focus on building Zambia by preaching peace and leave politics to politicians.

Bishop Ndhlovu said that Zambia only has one President who was duly elected and that the people’s will should be respected.

The bishop further said Zambia is not a dictatorship, contrary to assertions by the other church mother bodies.

And Four Political Parties have called on the three Church Mother bodies to preach national reconciliation and not ignite divisions in the country. The New Congress Party, Christian Democratic Party, Zambia Republican Party and the Citizens Democratic Party say the role of the church is to promote national unity in diversity.

Speaking at a Joint press briefing in Lusaka today, Christian Democratic Party leader Dan Pule said yesterday’s statement by the three Church Mother bodies is a misrepresentation of what is happening in the country.

Dr. Pule said that the statement was not a consensus of all Churches and did not reflect the true picture of what is transpiring in the country.

And New congress party president Peter Chanda said it is the duty of the church to unite and not divide citizens by taking sides.

And Citizens Democratic Party leader Robert Mwanza said allegations that president LUNGU is not a democrat are baseless.

Mr. Mwanza said branding the country as undemocratic is unfounded and should be condemned in the strongest terms possible.

And Zambia Republican Party president Wright Musona said the three church mother bodies should not only call for dialogue but advise the UPND to recognize President EDGAR LUNGU as the duly elected President of Zambia.

    • Guys don’t pay attention to this information the PF…is trying to confuse us with this propaganda again….

    • Pule is back on the scene and all he needs is a penny and a young one. Records are there, he cannot stand as a true opposition. AS for Bishop Ndhlovu, tribe allegiance is vital under the wakoni wako syndrome.

    • It is a known fact that these people who have paraded themselves here are PF stooges. Bishop Ndhlovu is the one leading the state house church where unprincipled pastors gather every Sunday afternoon. Wright or Wrong Musoma has always campaigned for PF. I know him personally. The rest are known to you all. It’s unfortunate that Pastors can sink so low just for money.

    • Always dictators and people who have power hanging in their heads can not heed advise. Instead of the president taking an introspective, he has now hired unprincipled pastors to defuse the advise that can save him.
      Mr. President time always judges and those people will not defend you.

    • Zambians have long ignored Telesphore Mpundu and his kitchen sink political trolling errands. His verbatim, and convulsive behavior manifests a worsen state of Alzheimer’s brain. The courts have already ignored his fatwa as senseless rants. Just for political expedience, he has turned into a partisan troll. Consequently eliminated himself from the league of peacemakers in Zambia.

    • Bishop Telesphore Mpundu, and Paul Mususu represented their own political interest and not those of the mother bodies.

      This is very clear, when did gone start permitting refusal to submit to authority?

      I think and know that God stays steadfast, consistent and the same yesterday, today and forever.

      Where is the the godly counsel of Mpundu and Mususu when HH is breaking the law?

      Where is the the godly counsel of Mpundu and Mususu when HH is disregarding and disrespecting authority?

    • The truth always comes out & will always set us free. Fortunately we are a Christian Nation & no weapon by the Devil to try & plant a seed of confusion & division will ever succeed. God Bless Zambia!

    • Church mother bodies of Zambia or whatever you call yourselves, This is not a blasphemous case against HH, it is Treason so STAY OUT OF IT! CAN I HEAR AMEN!

    • “Umodzi Kumawa” These Easterners are the worst tribalist ever. They are all coming out in numbers to vouch for this new despot as long as he’s from the East.
      Zambia is in Sh!t, all of these so called Bishops have lost moral ground. God will hold you all accountable for the moral and financial greed we are seing.

    • No surprise. These are little hungry parties masquerading as people ‘s voices but deep down their little brains they know the truth. For example, can Wright Musona tell me why (1) Mr LUNGU abrogated the Republican Constitution by (a) refusing to hand over power during the Petition filed y the UPND (b) refusing to leave State House during the same time and yet the same Constitution which he appended demands so? (2) Can Musona tell me why Mr Lungu is refusing to hear the UPND petition in the courts of law if he is cock sure that he won the 11/08/2016 election? Musona and this disgraced Pule, you are practicing cheap politics based on brown envelops! Shaaa…

  1. This is the more reason why we need dialogue in the country. And for dialogue to succeed people must be open minded and be ready to listen and be listened to. There must be nothing like recognise this person as President before we talk or things like whats the agenda. We surely all know what is supposed to be on the agenda

    • @Michael, can I dispute what you have said? NO, and a big NO for that matter because what you have said is the truth and nothing but the truth. Personally, I like such people who see things from both sides. Thank you Ba Michael.

  2. Meaning Bishop Mpundu paraded himself to tell lies. How are we going to trust the church if the very people entrusted with the Word of Life stand to tell lies? Shame

  3. Pure PF tactic trying to confuse the situation, it’s too late we are all tired of your tricks just release HH…and save your selves some embarrassment…

  4. Look who is distancing himself, wakumawa EFZ outgoing board vice chairperson Peter Ndhlovu – so laughable!

    So much for brown envelopes, for the wako-ni-wako bandits and their northern allies; how sad.

    • Kikikiki…..What shred of honesty does Peter Ndhlovu have?
      He is no different than those pastors who were supporting FTJ’s third term bid.
      ECL and PF have taken the country to the dogs..God help us

  5. PEOPLE ARE CRAZY. THE CHURCH HAS COME IN TO TRY AND BRING PEACE IN A TROUBLED NATION AND OTHER CHRISTIANS COME IN AND ACCUSE THEM OF TRYING TO CAUSE ANARCHY? HONESTLY YOU MEN OF GOLD AGAINST WHAT TELESPHORE MPUNDU SAID. WHAT WAS SO WRONG ABOUT IT? YOU WANT TO SING PRAISES TO THE WRONGS AND GET PAID FOR IT.

    • Telesphore made a personal decision and went in front of the nation and LIED!!! He was suppose to call for meeting with the EFZ board he belongs to. THAT IS WHAT IS WRONG,MY GUY.
      “Bishop Ndhlovu has charged that Bishop Telesphore Mpundu’s statement has potential to cause anarchy in the country, adding that the church should focus on building Zambia by preaching peace and leave politics to politicians.

      Bishop Ndhlovu said that Zambia only has one President who was duly elected and that the people’s will should be respected.

      The bishop further said Zambia is not a dictatorship, contrary to assertions by the other church mother bodies.”
      BETTER RECOGNISE, MY GUY!!!!!!

    • This is a typical PF tactic when they have called our fire brutality, corruption and tribalism. They fight back by accusing the other people of the same evils that PF practises.

    • It is obvious that His Grace, Archbishop Telesphore Mpundu, is a holy man while Lungu is an Islamic Satanist (IS). I know who to believe between the two.

  6. Truth is what needs to be told, irrespective of who tells it. The truth is, dialogue is a must and should precede recognition.

    • Wena imute wa Kalilo, utwa niku bulelele. That recognition you are demanding just cannot come because it has to be an Agenda item for the UPND. How does the UPND recognize Mr Lungu when the their Petition is yet to be heard in Court? If I had to draw the UPND Agenda, I would include (a) The UPND Petition (b) Recognition of Mr Lungu as President of Zambia and other items would follow. Utwile wena Imute wa Kalilo, a book which I fully read when I was doing Form 5 in the mid 70s.

    • @9.1 Mumbeti

      Lumela Mumbeti wa Mbeta. I take note you are giving wise counsel and guidance to UPND. They are better advised to take heed to your perceptive apprehension. Regards.

  7. It’s not a surprise. The incoming EFZ board will be more effective. Aba so ni zina yanga yasebenza. He’s outgoing and not entitled to represent EFZ. This statement is personal and not a representation of EFZ

  8. THE CHURCH IS SOILING ITS HANDS WITH POLITICS. EFZ DID NOT SEND A REPRESENTATIVE. BISHOP MUSUSU WAS THERE AS A MASQUERADE. THIS IS VERY UNFORTUNATE.

    • @Bululu: BISHOP MUSUSU SUCCEEDED BISHOP PAUL MAKAYI AS GENERAL SECRETARY OF EFZ. AFTER MUSUSU WE HAVE PUKUTA MWANZA WHOSE TERM WILL BE ENDING SOON. SO WHAT WAS MUSUSU DOING THERE? HE WAS A MASQUERADE, A KAONDE FROM NW-PROVINCE A STRONGHOLD FOR UPND.
      CHURCH LEADERS NEED TO AVOID MEDDLING IN POLITICS. THEY WILL SOIL THEIR HANDS WITH POLITICAL FAECAL-MATTER. THE CLERGY MUST ACT ABOVE BOARD AND ADVISE BOTH CAMPS INSTEAD OF TAKING SIDES. THE SO CALLED CRISIS (AND THERE IS NO CRISIS BY THE WAY) HAS BEEN CREATED BY HH WHO HAS TOLD A SERIOUS LIE TO THE WORLD AND TO HIS SUPPORTERS THAT HIS VOTES WERE STOLEN. GOD CANNOT BE MOCKED. HH HAS TOLD A LIE AND TRIED TO INSTIGATE AN INSURRECTION. HE IS TRYING TO ACT CLEVER (LIKE A KALULU IN FOLK TALES) BY ACTING THE VICTIM. TOTAL NONSENSE.

  9. Kikikiki…..What shred of honesty does Peter Ndhlovu have?
    He is no different than those pastors who were supporting FTJ’s third term bid.
    ECL and PF have taken the country to the dogs..God help us

  10. DIALOGUE MUST HAVE AN AGENDA. UNLESS THERE IS A CRISIS. THERE IS NO CRISIS IN ZAMBIA RIGHT NOW. AND THE PRESIDENT SHOULD JUST IGNORE SUCH CALLS. OTHERWISE HE WILL SET A VERY BAD PRECEDENCE WHERE ANY POLITICAL PARTY THAT LOSES ELECTIONS WILL BE BLOCKING THE PRESIDENTS MOTORCADE, AND LIGHTING FIRES IN THE QUEST TO LOOK FOR “DIALOGUE.” THIS MATTER HAS ALREADY DIED A NATURAL DEATH. ANY LAW BREAKER SHOULD JUST BE APPREHENDED AND LOCKED UP. FOR AS LONG AS THE PRESIDENT IS NOT A TONGA, HH WILL NOT RECOGNIZE SUCH A ONE, DO NOT BE CHEATED .

    • PF were responsible for the arson attacks across the country…….when they realised no one was blaming HH and investor confidence was going to be affected, they stopped the arson attacks…..

    • @Chisenga, stop being a hypocrite.
      When ECL returned from Lesotho, yesterday, he was quoted as saying ” ….. he has for a long time been talking about the need for dialogue which some political parties have not taken seriously.”
      So now that he has the Police under his push button, and 9months after elections obviously he has strengthened his position and doing everything possible to suppress any opposition(silenced CK & locked up HH), and he is already planning for 2021 AND suddenly he doesn’t see the need for dialogue? And now you talk about setting up a bad precedence? If you are sure that HH was responsible for the fires, why there is no one locked up and charged with arson?

  11. He probably worked with Rev Pukuta Mwanza on this statement. They are trying to satisfy their paymaster.

  12. YOU LUSAKA TIMES BE SERIOUS! WHY SHOULD IT BE THAT WHEN ONE VOTE FOR POSITIVE AGAINST PF, THERE IS ALSO A NEGATIVE VOTE IMMEDIATELY. STOP THIS RUBBISH FORTH WITH!

  13. Chagwa is just a pretender. He is a dictator. His works will follow him and when that has happened, he shouldn’t say he was not told.

  14. How possible is it that each time we have an easterner for president there is hightened intolerance for divergent views? The wako men of gold have resurfaced. Conmen!

  15. Telesphore Mpundu is a liar.The Roman Catholic church must fire him.he really embarrassed him by trying to impress his relative GBM.surely how can the 3 church mother boadies make a statement in presence of Garry Nkombo,GBM,Mutale Nalumango and many upnd suspended mps and expect Zambians to take them serious?THAT WAS A UPND PROPAGANDA!!!THANK GOD A LIAR MPUNDU HAS BEEN EXPOSED BY EFZ!!ZAMBIA IS BIGGER THAN HH.SO LET THE LAW TAKE ITS COURSE!!

    • Hehehehe njimbu…..

      The PF kaponyas firefighting from all corners of society……even those arson attacks you were committing across the country will pale in comparison to the critiscisims lungu will be getting.. ..

  16. WHAT ABOUT THE VOTERS IN THE 6.5 PROVINCES OF ZAMBIA. WERE THEY CONSULTED BY TERESFOR MPUNDU BEFORE HE MADE THAT UPND-SPICED-PRONOUNCEMENT? NO ONE CAN SILENCE THE VOICE OF THE MAJORITY.

  17. @13 Chisenga, exactly my belief.
    I have stated before that UPNDonkeys are dishonest about what exactly they want. They have no courage to state the truth, i.e. they want a tonga President for Zambia. Whereas there is nothing wrong with a tonga to be President of Zambia, the Donkeys dont have to be so tribalistic about, just do it through normal channels, if the person is.popular and has good ideas that tonga will be voted in by the people of Zambia. Otherwise people just resent this idea of tonga only president of UPNDonkeys and refuse to vote for one. And it seems they were so confident of winning this time, but the result shocked them. I hear in tge govt ofgices they were saying simething like ” now if you cant speak our language how are we going to work with you?”, can you believe…

  18. Archbishop Mpundu is embarrassing the Catholic Church. Catholic friends who went to attend the briefing told me they were so shocked to find Kapingila full of UPND cadres and officials to an extent where it had a semblance of a UPND press briefing. They immediately left the place.

  19. Those who are condemning the church to voice out what is happening in the country are wrong. The church is there to condemn bad behaviour and wrong doings. If the church keeps quiet that would be wrong. Ba Lungu and your pf check your self properly don’t pretend all is well. A lawyer who can’t understand what he studied it is a shame we miss Mwanawasa. When Mwanawasa was a President there law and order in this Country not what we are seeing during Lungu’s leadership.

  20. Archbishop Teresphore Mpundu has stood the test of time.
    During UNIP one party state era he criticized the government for bad governance.
    During MMD he stood to the truth and sided with the oppressed. PF was on the receiving end but the bishop stood for the truth,MMD was accusing of a brother in law to Sata.
    Not long ago, PF started calling the bishop all sorts of names.
    All those who criticized the bishop have fallen and Lungu is in that trap, he will fall.
    I will vote on sympathy, I will never vote for the arrogance and hatred again. I will convince twenty also to vote on sympathy, to be on the side of the persecuted.

  21. @Spaka like lilo:please note that president Edgar Lungu has nothing to lose as he is enjoying life in state house and Zambia is as quiet as Russian snow while your “cuundu caitwa chairman hh” is rotting 2 square metres room minus a toilet in mukobeko!!!
    Telesphore Mpundu’s lies only ended up into Fred M’membe’s The Mast-finito!!!MPUNDU MADE THE NOISE YESTERDAY AFTER GBM PAID HIM AND IT ENDED THERE BECAUSE HH IS STILL IN MUKOBEKO!!
    ECL IS A VERY STRONG MAN WHO CANNOT BE MOVED BY CROOKS (LIKE TELESPHORE MPUNDU) WHO WANT TO IMPRESS THEIR PAY MASTERS!!
    Many Zambians,especially in 6.5 provinces are behind ECL,hence Zambia enjoying peace currently.SOON GBM WILL BE LOCKED UP TOO!!

    • Lungu can not lock up GBM , if he has had to swallow the arrest warrant he issued for the arrest of membe that should tell you lungu needs western funds.

  22. @JM:stop cheating yourself.unless you dont know Zambian politics.nobody will vote on sympathy in 2021.at the rate upnd is destroying itself,by 2021 upnd maybe the shell of itself!!
    On the voting pattern,its clear that upnd will do very well in 3.5 provinces.PF SHALL KOLOPA VOTES IN 6.5 PROVINCES TOO!!even on HH’s current issues,many people from the North and East are in support of ECL as they didnt like how hh behaved after losing 2016 elections and finally blocking ECL in Mongu!!CHECK THE HOMES HERE IN TOWNS OF THOSE FROM THE NORTH AND EAST IF THEY SYMPATHY WITH HH CURRENTLY,MORE THAN 90% WILL TELL YOU THAT HH DECEIVES HIS CURRENT STATUS!!!SO DONT CHEAT YOURSELF ABOUT HH GETTING SYMPATHY VOTES IN 2021-THAT WONT HAPPEN!!

    • Why is lungu afraid of letting UPND have a sympathy march for HH ????

      Why has lungu banned 3 or more UPND members meeting at any place ???

      What is he afraid of ?

  23. Bishop Telesphore Mpundu, and Paul Mususu represented their own political interest and not those of the mother bodies.

    This is very clear, when did God start permitting refusal to submit to authority?

    I think and know that God stays steadfast, consistent and the same yesterday, today and forever.

    Where is the the godly counsel of Mpundu and Mususu when HH is breaking the law?

    Where is the the godly counsel of Mpundu and Mususu when HH is disregarding and disrespecting authority?

  24. I remember very well how upnd cheated itself in 2015 and 2016 when ECL openly told off Fred M’membe and the same Telesphore Mpundu.HH’s upnd celebrated saying Edgar Lungu will lose terribly because the catholic and M’membe’s newspaper wont support him.did he lose?NEVER!BECAUSE ECL HAD THE SUPPORT FROM THE MASSES!!ECL IS LOVED BY POOR ZAMBIANS ESPECIALLY IN 6.5 PROVINCES!!IF ECL CALLED FOR A POLITICAL RALLY IN CHAWAMA TOMORROW,UPND CAN BE SHOCKED SEEING HOW THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF LUSAKA RESIDENTS CAN ATTEND IT AS HH IS MUKOBEKO!!
    So stop cheating yourselves in upnd about sympathy votes as that wont happen.plus with the way you vote in dundumwezi,upnd may cry terribly in 2021 if other regions also vote that way in favour of PF!!
    TELESPHORE MPUNDU IS A LIAR HIDING IN CATHOLIC…

    • If UPND are allowed to call for a rally tomorrow lungu would have a heart attack at the masses that would attend.. …..that is why they are not allowed to have any rallies or protests or any gathering of more then 3 people.

  25. It is sad that Telesphore Mpundu and Mususu do not agree with David’s attitude towards Saul.

    If mpundu was David, he would to have a submitted to the authority of Saul.

    But David, bring a true man of God, said “touch not the anointed”, even when he had chance to deal with Saul.

    Every man of God knows that it is a spiritual require by to submit to authority.

  26. Njimbu

    Can you enlighten us as to why UPND are not allowed to have any rallies or marches ??

    What is lungu afraid of ?? Is it the popularity oh HH that haunts him ??

  27. YOU PEOPLE, WONT IT BE MORE BENEFICIAL IF WE ENGAGED THE GOVERNMENT TO DISCUSS THE REASON WHY CONSTRUCTING THE CHINGOLA-SOLWEZI ROAD IS TAKING TOO LONG THAN TO DEBATE WHICH CHURCH MOTHER BODY SAID WHAT? WE CAN LITERALLY PIN THE GOVERNMENT DOWN ON SUCH MATTERS. IF ALL OUR DISCUSSIONS WERE CENTRED ON THAT, WE CAN YIELD SOMETHING MORE PROFITABLE THAN DISCUSSING THE TERESFOR MPUNDUS AND PUKUTAS. I MEAN IF PEOPLE HELD DEMONSTRATIONS TO PRESS AND PICKET THE GOVERNMENT TO WORK ON THAT ROAD, SURELY , I WILL BE THE FIRST TO JOIN SUCH A DEMONSTRATION. YEARS ARE COMING AND GOING AND WE ARE TALKING ABOUT IRRELEVANCIES. ALL THESE MUKOBEKOs, CHIMBOKAILAs , TREASON ARE ALL RUBISH AND A WASTE OF TIME. ECL IS HERE TO STAY UNTIL 2021. HE WILL ADD TO THE LIST OF FORMER PRESIDENTS ENTITLED TO 80% OF THE…

    • “…..I MEAN IF PEOPLE HELD DEMONSTRATIONS TO PRESS AND PICKET THE GOVERNMENT TO WORK ON THAT ROAD…”

      You will be accused of being UPND and no gathering can be allowed by paranoid lungu…

    • @Chisenga that’s been my worry. We’ve bad roads, no water and we accept this as normal. But arrest one politician, everyone is ready to demonstrate. At the end of the term there’s nothing to show in terms of progress. It’s sensible to die for these basic rights than over an individual. People lost lives, jobs during Chilubas fight against KAUNDA but did Chiluba remember anyone of these people? In fact the first thing he did was to increase the price of mealie meal ten fold…the very thing that we fought against.

  28. -continued-
    HE WILL ADD TO THE LIST OF FORMER PRESIDENTS ENTITLED TO 80% OF THE INCUMBENT TILL DEATH. IN THAT PERIOD WE CAN CHOOSE TO HAVE THE CHINGOLA-SOLWEZI ROAD DONE OR CONTINUE DEBATING PUKUTAs AND TERESFOR MPUNDUs ET AL.

  29. Are these bastards funded by the government or stealing money from the poor believers? God will reward you if you give.. what an approach to ripping off the poor!

  30. This Ndlovu guy is a punk. Zambia is indeed a dictatorship where no dissenting views are allowed as exemplified by the so called national broadcaster and the denial of freedom of assembly to the opposition!!

  31. What is wrong is wrong. You reap what you sow that’s it. That’s why most Christians have become so stubborn because they don’t accept their wrongs. From the very beginning most children of GOD were not liked by many. If that motorcade didn’t avoid hh, what would have happened and said. Even Jesus Christ was rejected in His own land who is president Lungu.

  32. Stoogering ignorance must be made a crime punishable by capital punishment. As for Mr Dan “Fornicate” Pule, he should be looking for a job elsewhere not from Chagwa! Just by looking at the ethnicity of those sell-outs, you can see just how polarized Zambia now is tribally, people bear zero empathy for fellow countrymen for simply being Tonga and asking for fair play. Just let Tongas, Lozis and Kaondes secede!

  33. Shame on Ndlovu and Pule. God will judge these so called bishops or doctors called Christians for Lungu who have been bought with money by Lungu. The love of money has blinded them from seeing what is happening in the country and to HH.

  34. Even me as a Catholic I was not consulted. However I would welcome the unconditional release of HH and without unlawful pressure from anyone including Bishop Mpundu. I heard wise counsel from a priest on Radio who advised all clergy against taking political sides.

  35. Iwe wake ni wako you ware another stup1d 1diot. Not every one condemning your Lungu’s dictatorship is a Tonga. I am not Tonga and I can’t stand your Ka Lungu and your Christians for Lungu’s actions.

  36. Misleading title, a Ndhlovu, an out-going board vice president… how can that be EFZ? As for the 4 ‘political parties’, really? Are you kidding me?

    The reputable group has already spoken and the rest are pretenders. The 3 church mothers have a proven track record: they stopped FTJ’s third term in its tracks.

    The s!lly argument I keep hearing that Lungu should be respected or recognised because he is a leader who was “appointed by God”; that only God appoints leaders, that is the silliest thing I have ever heard. How could God appoint Lungu who stole votes in broad daylight be “appointed by God”. Lungu isn’t David or Moses from the bible, or is he? Please spare us the nonsense by not associating despot and hypocrite dictator with God!

  37. Danny Pule is a hypocrite and no sober person can believe him. What the mother bodies initially said is the true picture of the situation in Zambia. Even in old times, governments were rebuked for doing wrong by God’s men. Men of God stood on the word of God without fear to the point of death. Even Saul was rebuked by Samuel for sinning. The elections were irregular and they are busy saying you can’t dispute them. You can not force the UPND to recognize the Presidency. Even if they are forced to confess it, in their hearts they won’t believe it. The best solution is to have straight and transparent elections without disadvantaging the other groups.

  38. The Catholic church feels left out because ecl is always going to pentacostal churches. They did the same to ftj. What the bishop and his posse did was high level of indiscipline. The Bible says pray for those in leadership. How many people have been wrongly imprisoned and it was not dictatorship, now that one ego filled politician is brought to book all hell breaks loose. What hypocrisy! If those bishops have nothing to say, let them keep quiet.

  39. THE PF PROMISED TO BUILD KAOMA-KASEMPA ROAD, KASEMPA-MUMBWA ROAD, KASEMPA-KALULUSHI ROAD. AND NO ONE IS ASKING THEM TO FULFIL THAT PROMISE. EVERYONE IS ENGROSSED WITH HH, MUKOBEKO, PUKUTA, DEAD PETITION….ETC. ALL THESE WILL NOT YIELD ANYTHING, ECL WILL SERVE HIS FULL TERM(S) AND RETIRE COMFORTABLY SMILING TO THE BANK EVERY MONTH TILL DEATH. BUT WE WILL CONTINUE WALKING ON DUSTY ROADS, SWALLOWING THE DUST.

  40. The country is still reliving the trauma of the Mongu Road incident. When a traumatic incident is recorded, different perspective emerge. The first perspective is punishing the perpetrator/s. The second perspective is forgiving the perpetrator/s. The third perspective is total: punish them first; if they show remorse then forgive them. The third perspective reflects a particular version of justice: tolerant, liberal democracy. In democracy, impunity is punishable by law. How else can the country build posterity stability, prosperity and posterity? The spoilers are also keen to create confusion. The builders are also struggling to do their work. The cracks are already starting to emerge in the Christianity Clause because the Church forgives unconditionally whereas Government pardons…

The cracks are already starting to emerge in the Christianity Clause because the Church forgives unconditionally whereas Government pardons according to the law.

  41. Zambia is supposed to be a Democracy to my understanding, therefore everyone should be entitled to their opinion, that includes Bishop Mpundu, and Bishop Ndlovu, but at the end of the day a spade should be called as such, without sugar coating.

  42. YOU EVEN SEE HOW EFZ HAD BECOME ROTEN WITH THESE FAKE BISHOPS, PETER NDLOVU, JOSHUA BANDA, JOE IMAKANDO AND PUKUTA MWANZA

    Y IS PETER NDLOVU COMMENTING FOR EFZ WEN HE WAS CHASED FROM EFZ BECAUSE OF BEING A CADRE.

  43. Some of these so called Bishops like one nibakandile they eat from leader that comes in state house and PF is every day now dividing the country , including the Church , sad and i promise this Government and Party shall fail badly , that i can assure you . Wait and see , as they have useless propaganda and can nor get advise from wise people , but fools . Look at the so called who advisers.

  44. SO THE SOTN REPORT BY THE THREE “CHURCH MOTHER BODIES” WAS A HOAX MOOTED BY TERESFOR MPUNDU. HOW CAN WE BE RECEIVING CONTRADICTING STATEMENTS FROM MEMBERS OF THE SAME BODIES? THEY ARE NOT CONSULTING THEIR MEMBERS. AND THE SDA CHURCH TO WHICH HH BELONGS HAS NOT SAID ANYTHING. WHAT ARE THE THREE BODIES COMPETING FOR?

  45. Us Catholics, we are not even commenting what was SAID by Mpundu but disappointed with him. TULELOLESHAFYE

  46. It is interesting to note that Mpundu and mususu both who are dictators for not consulting their board members before issuing biased statements are accusing others of dictatorship! Repent or God will deal with you for your hypocricy and self righteousness.
