The opposition UPND has issued instructions to its members to stop commenting on the reported apology issued by Roan Member of Parliament Chishimba Kambwili.

UPND Spokesman Charles Kakoma said the party has learnt with regret that some of its members have been issuing statements in relation to the reported apology by Mr. Kambwili.

He said as UPND, the party’s position was stated on Monday by its Secretary General Steven Katuka.

“We have no difficulties with people that realise their mistakes and apologise to those people they have offended,” Mr Kakoma said.

“From a Biblical point of view, there is nothing that stops a wrong doer from apologising. Equally, there is nothing that stops the one that has been offended from accepting the apology.”

He added, “We note, however, that the offensive words well targeted at people of southern provice rather than UPND. There are many people in Southern Province who are neither UPND nor Tonga. We think it should not be the responsibility of the UPND to accept Kambwili ‘s apology, if any.”

He said ,”As things stand now, Kambwili has not approached UPND in relation to the apology or any desire to join the UPND. He has publicly declared that he is still PF and we respect him for that.”

“We therefore wish to advise our members to desist from commenting in a manner that suggests that they are projecting a UPND position when not authorised to do so. Anybody who issues statements without authority does so in his or her personal capacity.

  1. Unlike the PF rats who are all experts on nothing all the time, where every one of them seems to expose their shallowness each time they are given air time.. ..

    • That’s the epitome of real dictatorship not the concocted self failing narrative being dressed on a humble servant leader of Zambia in Nkwazi.

    • I said it last week..Kambwili joined the UPNDunderheads one month ago after meeting with a team of their fake MPs!

      Kambwili is just trying to buy time with the talk of taking PF to court etc..

      Now the truth is unfolding itself!!!!

      My predictions as accurate as always!

    • I read that apology ck made to the tonga people of southern. I however can’t comprehend the logic behind upnd coming out in response to the apology meant for the Tongas. Can someone help me understand the connection.

    • Kambwili has reached the end of his short rope and is trying so hard to use that same rope to tie PF while he clings to it. Sad!

    • It seems UPND views Kambwili as a big factor, as seen from the party involving it’s Secretariat to comment on Kambwili.

      At one time they caught Guy Scott, Bob Sichinga, and Miles Sampa, and there was huge celebration that they had caught big fish.

      Now excitement is building for Kambwili.

    • @Nostradamus,
      I see you are doing a great job behind the scenes, RB and kaizer are the ones confusing lungu, otherwise we wouldn’t have had a state of emergency… kambwili called me, and I called ba GBM to thank him, ba Nevers also texted me he is worried about the kaloba our friend is getting

    • @ Ndobo, my friends days of emergency is making us work in dark corners. And Garry is still suspended in Parliament. I was looking for Kakoma, where was/is he, look at picture that’s a nice place he is hiding.

    • DAMN! I MISSED THAT PART WHERE KAMBWILI APOLOGIZED
      ======================================
      I almost ranted “wonders shall never end”
      Why shouldn’t he? It was heavy. He launched a heavy and emotional attacks on Tongas and the UPND. He apparently made no distinction at all. How I wish he apologized whilst in PF. It was gonna make huge sense. “Inshiku shalingenye nina nomwana” zoona ai.

    • have said it before and will say it again, Kakoma is not the right person for the job of party spokesman. He lacks charisma, always timidity in speech, uninspiring etc and so should be replaced.
      The other point I want to make is that, it will more damaging to UPND if they allow CK to join them. This means stay sstay clear and let him form his own party. This is the guy who demeaned and dehumanized the tonga speaking people. Actually it will be an insult if CK is entertained or allowed to join.

    • Ummmm! ma state of emergency yavuta mwe. Naba UPND ati stop talking about Kambwili. Is this a mini state of emergency?
      If ba UPND are democratic as they claim, let people speak until they are tired about Kambwili the fat man. Are they trying to make Kambwili vice president of UPND? and kick out GBM? Who is going to pay for helicopter if GBM is sidelined? Ala imwe ba UPND mwavuta maningi.

    • In the picture see where HH stays, can you compare with where Lungu will stay after 2021? HH is the best for Zambia.

    • Unlike the chief of police who are control and threatened by Mumbi Phiri…! She ordered the Arrest of HH
      Keith: I knew you will say it’s from the briefings.Does that include briefs from commissioner Lungu

      Kanganja : yes
      Keith: By 11th April, some people were already calling for your resignation?
      Kanganja : Yes
      Keith: Mumbi phiri singled you out during her statement as being unprofessional?
      Kanganja : I have already answered
      Keith: our earlier question was on the police as a whole but now am talking about you as the IG?
      Kanganja : Yes
      Keith : But you have not brought her to court?
      Kanganja :No
      Keith : There was pressure from political players to have HH arrested and charged with treason or you resign on moral grounds
      Kanganja : Yes my lord..but that’s why i said in my…

    • @ Mulena- Dont be too hard on him. We are all just human. We are bound to error though sometimes big time. The man has apologised forgive him. Politics is a game of chance. Never ignore anybody who can add to your numbers.

  2. Mmmmmmm here I smell a rat. Kambwili wants to join UPND if he has yet done so. Kambwili no morals at all. He was doing things knowing too well he was wrong to insult innocent southerners. The next thing we will hear are praises that politics has no permanent enemy. Atase bane. Form your own party mune Mbwili

    • In Zambia Politicans have no intergrity and Parties have no ideology….voters on the other hand are ill informed and cast the votes based on the candidates party.

    • Like GBM, Kambwili will ensure the Copperbelt for UPND to wrestle power from PF. After all that, Kambwili will be expelled. Almost predictable.

  3. Politics brings out the worst in people. Look at Kambwili, a baffoon who thought he owned all the information in Zambia. He’s now jumping from place to place. Look at UPND which accepts riff raff like William Tekere and GBM
    Look at Fred Mmembe who sold his soul to politicians and miscalculated that UPND would win.
    Look at Kaponya (HH) who was a ‘proclaimed’ businessman but now languishes in Mukobeko smelling his own bowel excrements.

    • Davies look who’s bitter, it’s UPND and their cheap uneducated cadres like you Kaputi Davies.
      Are your children proud of your hatred for our elected leader President Edgar Lungu?
      Look at the amount of hate Kaponya (HH) has built up in his children?
      Look at Jack Mwiimbu’s bitterness.
      You turds should accept that you miscalculated the able leadership of President Lungu.
      You are now irrelevant
      The one you call Meno meno is your President just like the one you insulted to death calling him “Ailing Dictator Urine Bag”

    • Kudos don’t mind these lumpens they will forever be bitter, just imagine even when they are bonking their wives at night they are even more bitter.

  4. IT A PITTY THAT ALMOST ALL ZAMBIANS THINK ONE CAN ONLY CONTRIBUTE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE NATION WHEN HE/SHE IS IN POLITICS. THIS IS EXEMPLIFIED BY THE FACT THAT WHEN ONE GETS EXPELLED BY HIS PARTY OR NOT SELECTED TO STAND AS MP THEY FORM UP THEIR OWN POLITICAL PARTY OR JOIN AN OPPOSITION PARTY.WHY NOT FORM UP SOME BUSINESS AND EMPLOY THE YOUTH AND OTHER ZAMBIANS INSTEAD OF FORMING UP ANOTHER POLITICAL PARTY OR JOINING AN OPPOSITION PARTY? IS POLITICS THE ONLY THING ZAMBIANS CAN DO? IN FACT POLITICIANS ARE JUST FED BY THE POOR THE POLITICIANS ARE CLAIMING TO HELP. IT’S ABOUT TIME ZAMBIANS EMULATED DANGOTE, WHO IS THE RICHEST MAN IN AFRICA AND NEVER IN POLITICS BUT IS HELPING THE WHOLE CONTINENT FROM ECONOMIC SLAVERY BY THE WEST.

    • Zambian ploiticians are selfish f00ls who are not sincere and take advantage of the majority poor illiterates who dance for them even when they steal from them.

  5. I HAVE SAID THE ABOVE BECAUSE. MWENYA MUSENGA HAS ALREADY DECLARED TO FORM UP HIS OWN POLITICAL PARTY AND IT WON’T BE SURPRISING TO HEAR THAT CHISHIMBA KAMBWILI HAS JOINED AN OPPOSITION PARTY OR FORMED UP HIS OWN PARTY. ALL THIS IS BECAUSE ZAMBIANS THINK, AND I THINK IT’S TRUE, IN POLITICS THAT’S WHERE ONE CAN EASILY STEAL AND GET RICH QUICKLY, OTHERWISE, THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN DOING SOMETHING ELSE MORE USEFUL TO THEMSELVES AND AT LEAST THE YOUTH.MEANWHILE ZAMBIA NEEDS A LOT OF DONGOTES. BUT, AMONG THE POOR ZAMBIANS THIS IS A WISHFUL THINKING AS THE RICH AS WELL AS THE POOR ALL WANT TO BE IN POLITICS. WHAT A SHAME!

  6. Kambwili made some abhorrent remarks towards upnd. However please people refrain from taking statements issued by private individuals as been official upnd statement. Only myself and the official secretariat can issue official statements. We thank you.

    • @New Evil Zombie (Nez) ati kikikikikiki..you dunderhead pretending to know anything hopeless cretin just a few days ago you didn’t know anything, even today you remain clueless..proper Tum.fwefo baby blogger ..is it true you are Chilufya Tayali???? Ati kikikikikikiki…

    • 2020 Vision you seem desperate for a response from nez. Hope i have made your day.

  7. It seems UPND views Kambwili as a big factor, as seen from the party involving it’s Secretariat to comment on Kambwili.

    At one time they caught Guy Scott, Bob Sichinga, and Miles Sampa, and there was huge celebration that they had caught big fish.

    Now excitement is building for Kambwili.

    • He is definitely a bigger factor than the whole pf put together. Why do you think teeethy lungu is trying to destroy him. Lungu is scared.

    • @ 8.1 NEZ (new educated Zambia UPND ) BEST BLOGGER 2016,

      Lungu is simply allowing the UPND to be free to pick him.

      So, if you say Kambwili is a big factor then Lungu cares for UPND so much that he is providing them with such an opportunity to pick Kambwili.

      Anyway, I am mentioning the name Lungu because of your great love for that name – Lungu.

      Otherwise, for you information, unlike UPND where party leadership is equal HH who fires Canisius Banda singlehandedly and find comfort in GBM, PF is not Lungu.

      What was made regarding Kambwili was a party decision. Pf runs and functions on democratic principles.

    • Advice

      There was no collective decision. Only bootlickrrs threatening kambwili with violence in fron og lungu, who decleared himself alpha and omega of pf, because they thought he had presidential ambitions….

  8. The old adage of “DIVIDE & RULE” is being vigorously promoted by UPND as a desperate ploy to break up or weaken the PF. \ksmbwili is a newly discovered political germ for UPND. However, recent revelations that Kambwili mounted a program to unseat President Sata rings a bell.

    • What is wrong with having presidential ambitions in PF ?? Lungu should not fire people just because he is threatened…

  9. Some people dont view Bantu Botatwe as human beings but I as one of the Bantu Botatwe a.and also being a TRUE christian of mother Zambia do agree and commend Dr Chishimba Kambwili’s apology and encourage other well meaning Zambians to do the same. Let us not hate each other as Zambians based on tribe because this is going to kill our originality which KK built very well. Bushe mu PF bukaponya bwafula shani? Kabili thugalism yafula shani?

  10. This is a good move for the sake of good order. UPND should avoid PF’s Chipante Pante way of doing things where a PF official like Mumbi Phiri directed the IG Kanganja to arrest and charge HH with Treason. Mumbi Phiri is not a Govt Minister or govt official to command the IG. The PF Lungu illegitimate govt cannot distinguish the the Roles of the Party from that of Govt. How can a Party official direct the IG what he should do or not do. Its disgraceful.

  11. If what I read is true, then those THINKING KAMBWILI REALLY APOLOGIZED should first understand how it all went. IT WAS NOT UNTIL SOME ONE TOLD HIM THAT HE WAS PRACTICING DIVISIVE POLITICS that he said sorry, BUT HE STILL MAINTAINS THAT SOUTHERN PROVINCE HAS BEEN TRIBAL IN VOTING UPND and that WE SHOULD DO AWAY WITH TRIBAL POLITICS! IFF Kambwili joins UPND, he will be finished bcoz the support he has is from those that believe that he “loves PF” so going to UPND will put him together with those that left the party soon after Sata died. Some of these things one is better off sitting on the fence and doing other things rather than rush to make quick ending moves!

    • Just go mourning. Your insults won’t win you anything. Don’t you realize that insulting just shows how insular one is? To us what I posted is just a proverb

  12. Lungu is so insecure….he should let people challenge him for the top job instead of threatening them with violence and sacking them …….if that is not how a dictator behaves then I don’t know….

    • Iwe chi spaka like mulilo in pf we are Democratic we will have a convention in 2020 now tell us when is your convention? To replace your hyena hh.

    • Yes a convention for alpha and omega of PF, lungu…..stop trying to lie….if there was any democracy in PF kambwili would be free to challenge lungu.

  13. The mastonline.

    Lungu deploys riot police to stop musenge and kambwili from visiting a market.. …

    Why ??? Can the PF rats 2020munelo, terrible at al tell us is those 2 were going to set fire to the market ?? What is lungu afraid of ???

  14. Kudos wait and see who will laugh last. Your mouth is full of hate and we will see where that hate will take u.

    Kambwili was a darling pf when he was minister because he was “used” for pf`s dirt work, now that he has fallen out of favour he as become useless to the party. Just wait and see the events that will follow….

    Junior cobra is spitting venom

    • Problem with Sharon you act like your only role in life is kupasa lungu mutu. Keep kneeling my sister.

    • @Sharon Fake christian you are, I know many hypocrites like you in church. Just deal with your own baggage my dear.
      Don’t talk about “Evil spirits” here, deal with yours.

  15. Nez sometimes you fail to analyse ,do not insult just defend you argument. By doing so you will win more people. But if you fail to defend your point, you lose voters.In politician are all liars and greedy

  16. Time is ticking, August marks one year after underfive lost tye elections. And UPNDonkeys are asking who will laugh last. One year ago they erre saying the same thing and promising to inaugurate underfive ‘soon’. Maybe they meant inaugurating underfive into Mukobeko as kaili-1. We ate now entering year 2.
    But undergive is now reminding us that if in his family they can resolve problems amicably, yhen national problems can be solved aiicably too because a family is a unit of a nation. The boy is now outgrowing his UPNDonkeys certainly. Sounds like an underten already certainly.

      PFDONKEYS controls by Mumbi Phiri

  17. According to today’s Mast Mrs Musokotwane has stated that Kambwili’s apologies cannot be accepted since they have come only after being expelled from the PF. There it’s Kambwili is alone because he burned bridges after crossing them. And he’s still burning more by daily insulting the Republican President.

  18. Mr kambwili think and plan all forms of tactics to destroy PF especially on the reign of ECL . He had this plan before even last election but he never wanted to come open until he has forms structures underground and amass a large following.unfortunately, the move has failed even before half way something that shows that he is a failure in the next step political wise.however, drama is still on let’s wait and see

  19. Terrible notes that Kambwili apologised to tongas or people of southern province as Charles Kakoma puts it. Similarly as Charles Kakoma correctly puts it, the people of southern province are not all tongas or all UPNDonkeys, so what business is it of UPNDonkeys to accept apologies? It can only confirm that UPNDonkeys think that as southern province is their stronghold and it is the home of tongas, therefore UONDonkeys is a tonga party. Now that is the tribalism that we reject of dragging innocent tongas into UPNDonkeys tribal politics. No bosses, tonga is not synonymous with UPNDonkeys and similarly UPNDonkeys does not mean tonga. Just do your politics without involving innocent Zambians.

  20. Kambili is now scared…! He needs are lawyer
    Keith: Mumbi phiri singled you out during her statement as being unprofessional?
    Kanganja : I have already answered
    Keith: our earlier question was on the police as a whole but now am talking about you as the IG?

    Keith : But you have not brought her to court?

    Keith : There was pressure from political players to have HH arrested and charged with treason or you resign on moral grounds
    Kanganja : Yes my lord..but that’s why i said in my statement then that am not a coward.

  21. Pf the only part that can discipline who ever ,the disciplinary code is followed very well unlike other parties ck become unruly everyone knows ,as member of central commit he knew too well wat he was doing even upnd i think cant allow such ,remember sampa,scot ,mutati also at once thot they were heaveyweightys but failed if you cant lured then you will never lure simple

  22. IS LT ALIVE IN ZAMBIA? WHY ARE THEY NOT FOLLOWING UP THE TAYALI VERSES THE PEOPLE WHERE PF IG IS IN TROUBLE COULD NOT EVEN APPEAR BEFORE THE COURTS OF LAW? PLEASE UPDATE THE NATION AROUND CONCERNING KANGANJA AND LAYER MWENDA.
    ZAMBIA IN A COMEDY

    • The dummy is being put in his place by the learned lawyers, He cant even answer simple questions. He tries to intimidated the lawyers and its not working. I now see why ZP is such a rotten mess.

  23. His Hounorable Ck will be restored to the party he will not join any other opposition party.He is destined for greatness.He will be restored to his position of honour.What a great man God’s chosen vessel.It is good that he has apologised to the southerners because our motto has always been one Zambia one nation.United we stand and divided we fall.We are one nation so hatred should not be among us.It must NOT be tolerated at all costs in the name of Jesus peace loving Zambians.Politics should not be tribal but whoever God chooses let him choose because Bible is clear,it is he who gives power to be a president, appoints and dethrones kings and presidents at his own WILL not according to what man wants but he who chooses.God looks at the heart of a person not the outward appearance or what…
