WHY PAINT MUKOBEKO PRISON NOW? STOP IT, IF NOT, BRING OUR PRESIDENT, MR HAKAINDE HICHILEMA BACK TO CHIMBOKAILA PRISON WITHOUT FAIL.

We are deeply concerned by reports that the Zambia Correctional Services intends to paint the Mukobeko Maximum prison any time from now especially at a time like this when our Party President, Mr. Hakainde Hichilema is being held there.

Without doubt, we question the motive behind this painting as you may all know that paint in itself could be hazardous and contains harmful substance to the human health and this includes the heath of our President.

While we are fully aware of the filthy conditions under which Mr. Hichilema and other detainees are living, we believe our party President can endure the unpainted condition of the cell under which he is being kept.

We demand that the Zambia Correctional Services stops this plan forthwith as it does not guarantee any hope of good health on the part of our President, Mr. Hakainde Hichilema.

And in the same line, we wish to state here that if the Zambia Correctional Services wants to go ahead and paint the inside of the Mukobeko prison, they must not paint the cell room where our party President is being detained. Paint takes many days to dry. It is unreasonable to paint Hakainde Hichilema’s cell during the day and expect him to sleep their in the night before the paint dries up.

We are wondering whether this is the reason why the Zambia Correctional Services working together with the Police forcefully defied the court order and moved our party president from Chimbokaila to Mukobeko Maximum prison.

We once again strongly demand that our party president be brought back to Chimbokaila in Lusaka if the state wishes to insist with its plans of painting the inside of Mukobeko Maximum prison in Kabwe .

We wish to remind Zambia Correctional Services that by nature, paint has chemicals which may also be harmful and they should not dare subjecting our President, Hakainde Hichilema to such.

Fellow citizens, should they go ahead and paint the inside of Mukobeko Maximum prison and the room where our party president is held, the country must hold them responsible for what may arise thereafter.

Its not too long ago that our President stated that his life was in danger and it is difficult for us to trust the Zambia Correctional Services that it will protect him from danger when they also lied to him before forcefully taking him to Luanshya for a court case.

    • So painting of correctional service facilities (Mukobeko in particular) should wait until it’s free of all prisoners? It’s like saying I will only go on the road to learn how to drive when there’s no single vehicle, when would that time come? Let’s be serious. Or maybe other prisoners don’t really matter?

    • If other prisoners have survived in unpainted rooms all this time, HH will survive too, and where has the good heart come from all of a sudden for the place to be painted? We don’t need you good heart, it’s so foxy.

    • Visionless Lungu & PF bandits should stop wasting people’s time for banditry politics of dictatorship!
      Just release HH who is innocent until proven otherwise & let the presidential petition be heard & Lungu must give power to the speaker with respect to the constitution.
      Has load shedding stopped, or where is Lungus 500,000 jobs, & how is the plummeted economy doing at the expense of exacerbated high mealie meal prices?
      What will the painting of HH’s prison cell be beneficial to the economy PF bandits?
      The Skeleton Key
      ~20?yes 206.

    • Awe Ba UPND we will abandon you now. Let them paint it in red anf yellow trims. There so many visitors for HH at Mukobeko. Why not make it presentable? Catholic bishops should visit a nice fresh painted prison.
      Unless the plan is that HH is the one painting alone.

    • PF MATAK0 Politics of kidnapping, false accusations, abuse of power, abuse of the rotten judiciary, curfews, Fake State of Emergency will be accounted for one day.

      The EVIL HUMBLE MOSLEM MALAWIAN DICTATOR will soon be a resident of the same cell, if he’s lucky.

      Otherwise the snake’s head will be cut off soon.

    • There’s reliable information that POLONIUM poison has been imported by the EVIL HUMBLE MOSLEM DRUNKARD MALAWIAN DICTATOR & he plans to mix the paint for HH’s cell at Mukobeko.

      POLONIUM was used in 2004 by Russian dictator Putin on Ukrainian President Victor Yushchenko which left him with a disfigured face & was used in 2006 to murder spy Alexander Litvinenko in London.

      We’ll lose our president, HH if evil snake’s head is not cut off.

  1. I think this kakoma is not fit for purpose.

    If I were him I would be visiting my president

    As a party no one gives credence to UPND anymore.

    How can one allow a Tonga to get to statehouse ?

    Thanks

  2. Lack of respect for health and safety. Lungu thinks he is clever trying to act like a mafia in finding indirect ways to clear hh. Let me warn lungu that if anything ever happened to the legal president of Zambia I would personally rip his throat out and burn him with a tyre. This is a warning leave hh alone. Face him like a man u naughty dog lungu

  3. It would have been nice if they spoke for all the prisoners there and not just the Party President. Their health is just as important. A life is a life. Health and safety should apply to all

  4. Why is Lungu investing so much money and time to eliminate HH from the Political Scene? Why not try him and convict him for Treason in Court? The whole World knows that Lungu is well bent on killing or harming HH in Prison. Poisoning HH in this Information Age will backfire on Lungu and his murder of crows.They will not get away with committing that crime. Lungu has no evidence against HH on Treason Charges and he has run out of ideas in dealing with HH. Killing or poisoning HH will set Zambia on fire and that fire will consumeLungu personally. Cant Lungu get it?

    • zambia would have been already on fire if HH was indeed a factor!!he has been in jail for over 90 days and peace is reigning in ZED.

  5. Mr holier-than-thou, now that you have been tipped that, they want to paint those over populated jail cells, whats is your humane consciousness telling you to do about, sit and watch inmates get intoxicated?

  6. We need to be objective here. How many times do the Zambia Correctional whatever paint the Chimbokaila? What is so special about HH in comparison with the people being held there that should stop the place being painted? We need to be factual who has sunctioned this painting if it has been sucntioned at all.

    • You should also ask yourselves why that place should only be painted when HH is around, why did they not paint it before, does it mean the other prisoners are less human? Leave it the way it is,why paint it now, that’s why upnd doesn’t want it to be painted, because the other occupants are just human just like HH and if they survived all this time in unpainted rooms, HH will survive too.

  8. How special is Kaponya (HH)?
    We are trying to make his conditions better but you are raising preliminaries again?
    Let the Ape rot in Mukobeko!

    • If u a fool remain fool alone.dont share it with inocent people.b4 u even case the road try to walk.mind yo language who told u the u God to say tha hh or tonga person cn nt b president??
      I reap mind yo language

  9. What of Hundreds of prisoners who are there are thy not humans? baseless reasoning why are you trying to make one person as if he is God.

  10. I have visited Mukobeko. It has been receiving some refurbishment. When I visited, which was several months before HH was incacerated they were painting the outside wall and it now looks much better. So they are not painting because of HH. It just happens that HH and other remandees and inmates find themselves at Mukobeko when these works are going on.

    On a different note I think ba kakoma has kiilled the spirit of what could have been a great statement by singling out the health of HH alone. He reminds me of that book by George Owell called Animal Farm.

    • ulubunda – From the pictures, I also thought that it was undergoing refurbishment. All this nonsense from Kakoma is just to stir talking points from their sponsors to claim that “there is dictatorship in Zambia, they are now painting the Prison where the Opposition Leader is detained so that his health can be affected by paint”.

  11. Is HH asthmatic? We would understand the appeal then. Otherwise Kakoma is trying to clutch at straws…Look for better arguments

  12. Have they said the type of paint they are going to use. I know there are different types these days. why not see the type they want to use the comment or it may be too late? Anyway kwati yakosako iyo mwe.

  13. I have news for you, do you hate people because of where they come from, what language they speak, the position they hold in society, how they live their comfortable lives, what political party they belong to, and you hurt when the truth is said.
    Aha, I have an answer for you, it is because you are ignorant, uncivilised and very stupid.
    Clever people are tolerant, live with others in harmony, don’t hate others for who they are.
    Have a life, be wise. Be God fearing, a foundation of life.

  14. As like seriously Charles Kakoma said this?
    So mukobeko prison should not be painted simply because of HH?who in Zambia cannot paint his or her house while the family lives in that same house?
    Hey ba upnd,this is now getting out of hand.your anti-development stance is very evil.SURELY LIFE SHOULD COME TO STANDSTIL IN ZAMBIA ALL BECAUSE OF ONE MAN HH?indeed HH is your god-i now agree!!SORRY,IF HH DIED TODAY(GOD FORBID),WILL ALL HIS CADRES PUT WITH HIM IN A GRAVE?kekekekekeke this is amazing.THANK GOD PF DO NOT SEE ECL AS OLPHA AND OMEGA!!
    Please ZCS go ahead and paint mukobeko right now.who is HH to stop your works?UPND IS A KNOWN ANTI-DEVELOPMENT PARTY,SO IGNORE IT 100%!!!

  15. Kakoma’s statement shouldnt make the headlines or even a corner of a decent news publication. Its a typical statement from a sick UPNDonkey.

  16. Cry babies all the time. How special do you think Kaili-1 is for the Prison Service to cancel the painting of prisons. Besides why worry about Kaili-1alone what of the other prisoners ? Conviction will precede a catholic-led ‘forgiveness’

  17. Even for for the level of UPNDonkeys this level of paranoia is embarrassing. They think even underfive’s toilet should not be painted?

  18. Romans 5:20-21New Living Translation (NLT)

    20 God’s law was given so that all people could see how sinful they were. But as people sinned more and more, God’s wonderful grace became more abundant.21 So just as sin ruled over all people and brought them to death, now God’s wonderful grace rules instead, giving us right standing with God and resulting in eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

  19. Mixing polonium with paint and finishing your enemy quietly has been used in other banana republics! The very fact of PF insistence of putting their No.1 enemy who is a remandee and not a convict in Mukobeko is what gives the evil scheme away. They want to kill him full stop! It’s too much now! Stop this rot you magwams!

    • So this polonium knows who is the PF’ s enemy or target and will ignore all inmates and go only for HH?

  20. Kakoma, is Hakainde a special prisoner? Let the correctional facility remain as it is until when authority will have a plan to paint it. If other human beings have survived before what prevents Hakainde to be like wise?

  21. Is hh the only inmate in this mukobebo twapapata. I am very sure that mwaliteta must be gnashing his teeth to resign his ministerial position for jokers. Nobody mentions his name yet he has stayed longer than the demigod.
    Look at Mulenga Sata, ditching his father’s party before he was interred to join the dark forces and where is he?
