The Patriotic Front Youth leadership in Lusaka has castigated PF Roan Member of Parliament Chishimba Kambwili for issuing media remarks that have potential to put the ruling party’s name in disrepute.

PF Lusaka Province Youth Chairperson Kennedy Kamba said that Mr. Kambwili should follow proper channels of airing his personal grievances.

Mr. Kamba said that Mr. Kambwili’s assertions that police officers and the Intelligence wing are harassing him should be dismissed with contempt.

He told ZNBC News in Lusaka that Mr. Kambwili should not seek sympathy through unfounded media statements.

Mr. Kamba has since advised Mr. Kambwili to take any concerns to the forth coming PF Central Committee meeting.

Mr. Kambwili has been quoted as saying some police officers and Intelligence Officers attempted to harass him at his home in Luanshya over the weekend.

Meanwhile, political commentator Edwin Nyirongo has said it was not too late for Mr Kambwili and former Copperbelt Province minister Mwenya Musenge to humble themselves and make peace with the PF.

In an interview yesterday, Mr Nyirongo said the recent political manoeuvres by Mr Kambwili and Mr Musenge had left many people wondering whether the two were still members of the ruling party or not.

“As things stand now, it is hard to tell which political party Mr Musenge, for instance, belongs to owing to his recent activities which mostly appear to be against PF and in support of the UPND.

“The two have the right to associate with politicians or political groupings of their choice but it will be more appropriate if they did that in a more transparent way.”

Mr Nyirongo warned that the soft approach taken by the PF leadership to tolerate Mr Musenge’s misconduct against the ruling party would not last forever.

“It’s high time Mr Musenge and his colleague checked their conscience. They need to be clear on what they want to achieve in their political journey.

“Because the current attitude of Mr Musenge and Mr Kambwili towards the PF party, Government and President Edgar Lungu is highly questionable,” said Mr Nyirongo

    • Just a few days ago, Davis Mwila issued a statement restraining PF members from issuing press releases, I don’t recall seeing this Kamba `s name on those who are allowed to. What is Mwila going to come up with, discipline this young boy? I don’t understand all this fuss around Kambwili, he mentioned that there was some police surveillance around his house, and this was confirmed by the CB Police Chief, except they differed in the number of police officers. So as a citizen, he has the right to complain, why are you trying to silence him? that is depriving him of his rights. If he has to be disciplined for airing his concerns and fearing for his life, then this Kamba should be disciplined twice for disobeying party rules, which is a big thing compared to Kambwili complaints.

    • The knives are out! There is indeed no honour amongst thieves!!!!! More popcorn please. We are on a cliffhanger

    • The picture is becoming clear by the day, .they want you DoA. We have already had ; Chishimba Kambwili Cheats Death In Yet Another Road Accident – May 4, 2017 , Kambwili survives road accident in Mwense – April 20, 2017.
      Power sweet power!

    • Problem with PF is that everyone is talking?? Youth Leadership castigating a senior party member? No morals. Shows that the Party has no proper leadership. Full of kids. Where is the President to of the party to put up some leadership code?? Kambwili is now their internal HH??

    • He didn’t issue the stiry on behalf of the party. Can you read where it says pf media. No wonder you think article 31 is state of emergency. Dull 1diot.

  1. Top Ten Tips to help you to carry out a good incident investigation
    1. Do not ‘go it alone’ if you can avoid it. Good investigation requires discussion and it is all too easy to agree with yourself! Different types of people see things from different perspectives and in investigation you want to make use of this.

    2. Remember to think things through before you begin. Do not rush in to interview witnesses or walk the site until you have decided what should come first and who is going to do what. Gather your thoughts. Discuss with your ‘team.’ Find witnesses and make arrangements to interview them properly. Decide carefully when you will do the various necessary tasks.

    3. Organise who will be responsible for all the information you will collect and which you will need for…

  2. Top Ten Tips to help you to carry out a good incident investigation
    3. Organise who will be responsible for all the information you will collect and which you will need for your analysis. If this is yourself, then set up a simple but effective system for storing and keeping it safe so that your job is made easier. Make sure none of your data is lent out or left lying around.

    4. Set up your ‘investigation headquarters’ right away. This may sound ‘over the top’ but it isn’t; you need somewhere to put up your Storyboard and Analysis charts so that you can come back to your investigation each day in an orderly way. Even small incidents or near misses (hits) could have been much bigger events; the reason you are investigating is to identify actions which could prevent a much more…

  3. serious occurrence. Your investigation is extremely IMPORTANT no matter what size the incident.

    5. As you gather your data, put it right away onto Post-its and then the Timeline chart. That way you can see in front of you what is emerging. And you can discuss your findings so far with your colleague/team. Using Post-its like this allows flexibility; nothing is fixed. You can move them around – or take them off the chart altogether.

    6. Make sure that everyone feels able to input information. TOP-SET® has ‘difference’ at its core. Make use of this. Be open and accepting. What seems obvious is rarely the answer.

    7. Do not discount the apparently naïve idea. The non-expert too can have a very valuable contribution just because they can see with fresh eyes. Is there anyone in…

  4. Is there anyone in your office/establishment whom you have not thought of who could contribute well to the investigation?

    8. Arrogance and bullishness have no place in investigation; each individual has equal value in this process. Often the quieter individual, the one who is listening, comes up with the gem.

    9. Listen to others. Sometimes someone else’s idea triggers something in your own mind. It’s OK to piggy-back on the ideas of others.

    10. Be open minded; it is dangerous to be fixated on any idea. Use the TOP-SET® indicators to direct you in different directions. Allow them to stimulate your own thinking. Remember, you are looking for truth, not convenient coat-hangers. And sometimes you just have to live with uncertainty. A good investigator can do that and can base…

  5. A good investigator can do that and can base their recommendations on what they have found without needing A SINGLE ANSWER.

  6. Here is proof that the Police is PF and PF is the Police. Why should Kambwili present his grievances to the PF central committee? Kambwili doesn’t mention the PF but the police behaviour.

  7. Only Royal PF ediots have the right to speak freely.
    Normal citizens are doomed to be warned and brutalized by ZP.

  8. Mr Nyirongo is not a political commentator but a pf cadre, Lusaka times learn to report correctly. Your reporting is below par.

  9. Ba kambwili before it’s too late go and consult GBM, mukalila mutule,if you are not careful you can jump from the pan fall into the fire,

  10. Who are Kamba and Nyirongo? Why are they disrespecting a Central Committee Member? And do they have the authority to speak on behalf of the Party?

  11. PF is really clueless and vision less, Kamba cadre directing Chishimba on how to proceed on expressing their views. We can’t be wrong when we say PF is full of thuggery administration not fit for purpose.

  12. Kambwili & his entire entourage shld LONG have been kicked out. Kale sana. He should not even be eating in parliament. How does pf allow a person to eat on their plate & shiiit on that same pf leadership? How? For what tolerance. Let him go & shiit elsewhere. Now. Enough is enough

    • Iwe kolwe without kambwili Lungu would have lost the elections, learn to appreciate, if ECL is not careful he wont win the 2021 elections alevundula ama King makers.

  13. Now it is on Chimbwi –

    “Instead of being out there chasing criminals, their are busy chasing Kambwili” Kambwili says in his statement. But Mr. Kambwili you are the criminal yourself that is why the police are chasing you. Why are you ruling yourself out of the list of criminals? I would like to point it out to you sir that you are criminal. Mr. Kambwili is one of those people who have a false sense of importance. He reminds me a lot of Vernon (VJ) Mwaanga (another Honorary Doctor) but that’s the story for another day. My take on Kambwili is this; Mr. Kambwili could never have become a Minister in Zambia under normal circumstances. Lungu discovered this late. He only became Minister because of Sata’s great appetite for tribalism. In my view Sata was the worst president Zambia has ever…

  14. Notra, it’s sad and uncultured for you to start bring Michael in this issue. Michael will always be remembered as the man if action who formed PF and let it to victory. Michael is so the only man who formed a political party single handly.
    Notra , what you are supporting is out of Michael ‘s hard work. ‘ YOU can not like a trousers and hate the maker..’ or love a woman or man and hate parents. Michael when he won election he extend olive branch to UPND to serve in the government but they refused they wanted full ministetial posts and this is a fact. Kambwili is being followed by the police under the instructions from the highest office. This only used to happen during KK time. Kamba and yourself can not decide to chase Kambwili from PF AS KAMBWILI IS GREEN PF THAN LUNGU
