Kambwili should use his head before he uses his mouth -Chishimba

There are two things which one should exercise caution with before discharging because you can’t take them back once discharged,that is words out of ones mouth and a bullet out of a gun. I am cautioning honourable Chishimba Kambwili to use his head now more than ever before he uses his mouth because the way he is going about his rantings doesn’t denote integrity or honour. Yes we know he can talk but revealing things which he stumbled upon by virtue of him being a government officer may land him in problems and he shouldn’t blame anyone or cry foul.

As a politician, one should understand that there are six types of followers:

  1. the ones who are likely to give one a vote during elections, i.e people who believe in you
  2. those who sympathize with you
  3. those who just don’t like your opponent
  4. people who are just interested in your pockets
  5. those who only follow you because someone they know and trust is following you
  6. those who do not even know why they are following you.

By far the most important ones are the ones who believe in you and sympathisers because they will campaign for you whenever they can, without expecting anything in return. When Mr Kamwbili was expelled from PF, people believed that he was curtailed out of the party using what he termed as a kangaroo court. Where the accuser was the judge and jury. This made him have sympathizers. But now, looking at how he is conducting himself, he is going to lose that set of people because there is no honour in revealing secrets that you swore to keep. People will think twice and sometimes think twice about thinking twice about revealing some secrets to him because they will not be sure whether he will manage to keep his buccal cavity in check. In the same vain, a woman loses her dignity when she starts revealing bedroom secrets to her friends or other people generally regardless of her situation.

There are two times in life when you should really keep your mouth closed, when you are under water and when are you are angry. So if Hon Kambwili is revealing these things because he is upset I am advising him as a political comrade to have a selectively permeable political mouth for his words because he is going to lose his dignity and then find himself with a case to answer.

In my political career I have always known that it pays off to give people reasons why they should follow you more than struggling to give them reasons why they shouldn’t follow your opponent. So he shouldn’t be like detective politician Saviour Chishimba if he wants to be regarded as a presidential material. He should try by all means to emulate President Wynter Kabimba of Rainbow party because he conducted himself honourable after being relieved of his duties from PF because if he doesn’t his mouth will be his biggest enemy sooner than he thinks and people are going to think he is too desperate for power that he is willing to do or say anything.

All in all, by and large, a wise man once said nothing.

I rest my case.

  1. David Chishimba you are not fit to lace Kambwili’s laces.

    Being Bemba yourself, you have sold out.

    Thanks

    • LT please be more serious to select articles.
      What David wrote is worse than Kabinba analyzing soccer, and advising Kalusha how to be a good player. Just read those 6 points, what do these guys drink kanshi? We call that UKUSABAILA.

    • TRUE, KAMBWILI’S DOWNFALL IS HIS OWN TONGUE – HE IS FULL OF INSATIABLE RAGE AND OF HIMSELF
      ===========================
      There is no political guru in the world. I lament his lack of faculty to embrace change and all that comes with it. If his political experience dates back in KK error, I am sorry to state that he lacks the basic element of articulating present times. Being a loner will earn him a the Gen. M status quo. In this error, political players need to be above pettiness, selfishness and all forms of corruption connotations. One of the saddest politician in the modern day Zambia is one with a big mouth; like Silvia Masembo, CK,

    • @Mushota you seem to have an insatiable knack for being narcissist! I cannot fathom why you think you are better than Nick- when Nick left school shortly before completing his primary education! Please make sure you move out of the Glasgow area as the rate of mixed race children succeeding in those areas are practically zero!

    • ‘There are two things which one should exercise caution with before discharging because you can’t take them back once discharged.’

      No, Sir. There are more than two. Poooop from the back side and urine from the front side. Once discharged, you cannot take them back.

  2. True advice. The way neckless has been ranting puts him on the level of a call boy. The opposition may think he’s a big catch but what makes them think he won’t do the same to them at the slightest sign of disappointment? The PF flushes the toilet and the opposition waits at the sewer ponds to catch the flushed material should not be the style of politics. Politics should be based on quality not quantity otherwise we shall continue recycling the same flushed material.

  3. Kambwili is a politician and knows how to handle his politics. Why is kabimba and his side kicks so worried about the alleged threat of spilling the beans? There are so many ways to kill a cat. The rainbow group or party or whatever they call themselves must just concentrate on organising themselves and the real enemy is PF, keep your eyes on the ball.

  4. THAT IS VERY INTELLIGENT AND WISE ADVICE. CHISHIMBA SHOULD PRESERVE HIS INTEGRITY (IF AT ALL HE HAS ANY) BY JUST KEEPING QUIET AND TALKING WHEN IT IS NECESSARY. SOMETIMES TALKING TOO MUCH REVEALONE’S LACK OF WISDOM AND INTELLIGENCE EVEN IF THEY ARE Dr WHATEVER.

  5. It is now becoming clear that lungu will not touch kambwili—–‘he knows too much of the corruption in lungus office.

    Instead lungu will use thugs and violence to stop kambwili thinking of presidential ambitions….

  6. LT. This news media platform should/can not be used as source of news by PF rivalry groups to be seen as authentic and original PF members. PF as a party has not added any value to Zambia as a nation. The current crisis the nation has plunged itself all points to PF’s incompetence to run a government. The ascendancy to power by late Michael Sata is a black mark on the history of Zambia. Sata was no good to Zambia as a nation and its effects will take years to eradicate. The in-fighting within PF is expected and will take a worse turn because PF membership comes from insecure, bully-some and thuggery source. All influential PF members have had suspicious baggage with them into PF senior members who ended up as ministers now fighting for their skin as the party disintegrates. That is…

    • MunaDekhane, you have hit the nail on its head, until we are honest with ourselves can we move forward. Sata MHSRIP, has taken us 10 steps backwards as a president. He had nothing to offer this nation in terms of leadership and direction. Global friends and neighbour’s are still wonder what we expected from him. What we need now is somebody with education, humility, integrity, supported by strong and independent. institutions such the judiciary, parliament, press. So that if power gets to his head, he or she can “brought down to earth”. We the voters, need to rise to the occasion, this business of “sleeping” during the day is what has hurt this beautiful country. Like the saying goes, where the good do not act the evil will prevail. Maybe some workshops in activism will help,…

  7. Kambwili is a failed and drowning politicians who wants to hold on to anything for survival on his way down. He is forgetting that most of the beans he wants to spill come his way by virtue of him being minister (under oath).

  8. What a foolish strategy from the useless Rainbow Party.Where is Wynter Kabimba with his honourable behaviour?
    That you have been given space by LT is because you have talked about CK. There is a long queue of people at ZNBC, Daily Mail, and Daily Nation who want to Talk negatives about CK and they Will be given space.It shows the levels of desperation by ECL and his sinking PF over CK. Spill the beans hon CK. Tell us everything. Tell us the Arab connection with PF campaign funds. Tell us the banks some people have opened in DRC as conduits for money laundering. Tell us about the Road projects, more data on the 10% corruption surcharge and the beneficiaries. Once you are done with releasing the filth on the PF the sinking boat will stink so much that only tainted people will remain…

  9. Chishimba Kambwili thought he was incommodious. Little did he know that what ever goes up will one day come down.

  10. I don’t believe any thing from a person like Kabwili who after being flushed out that when he wants to speak, MWANAWASA resigned as vice President because he saw some thing wrong, very good words of advice for kambwili

  11. Number is a proper description of Frank Bwalya. In any case, with the majority in poverty, loyalty is hard to come by nowadays. Zambians have recycled and continue recycling politicians yet the author gives credit to the notion of believe?! Our political system dwells on populism and it is as simple as that. While the advice sounds good, it’s misplaced because in Zambia, taken as a case study, quality with regards to our law makers does not exist. We, rather the majority voters influenced by poverty believe in short-lived gains. And our politicians take advantage. Welcome to Zambia where we specialise in today and never tomorrow!
