  1. Yet Kaunda interfered to ensure you get independence and ensure Mandela was released from prison. So was Kaunda not interfering in South African domestic politics? As people of Southern Africa we need to unit and ensure democracy is a cornerstone of our freedom. We are one people The BANTUS.

    • Kaunda interfered because the bantu were being disadvantaged. HH is failing to convince Zambian voters to vote for him because he won the UPND leadership on tribal grounds.

    • I like this system of having the president answer questions.We need it in Zambia.Our presidents are too untouchable in Zambia. I liked the way Zuma calmly handled Maimanes question.

    • Kiki Kiki see how these Under5s are disgracing themselves. That boy was answered in one shot and he sat down convinced. And hyena was waiting for a favourable answer and to his surprise he got slapped on the face too. Who is advising these under5s sure.

    • Nairobi (CNN)Kenya’s Supreme Court has ordered a re-run of the country’s contentious presidential election, after a legal challenge by the opposition.
      =========================

      That is what we call independent judiciary and democracy, not in Zambia.
      I thought a number of PF here were discounting off Odinga and comparing him to HH? What do you say now?

    • Who is HH? He is just an opposition leader and a wannabe desperate President. His new name should be desperado because he is so desperate. Atase!

    • But Maimane has failed to contain him and now has seen a weakness in Zambia and wants to gain political mileage on Zambia instead of dealing with Zuma

  2. KIKIKIKI….POOR HH THOUGHT JZ WAS GOING TO SUPPORT HIS NONSENSE. “WE DO NOT INTERFERE IN THE POLITICS OF OTHER NATIONS”. PERIOD.

  3. AND YOU DO NOT GO INTO ANOTHER COUNTRY AND START SIDING WITH THE OPPOSITION OF THAT COUNTRY, MAKING SPEECHES THERE ETC. YOU WILL NOT BE WELCOME

  4. Jacob Zuma lived in exile in Lusaka, just as his Ex-wife Nkosana Dlamini-Zuma, Speaker Baleka Mbete. Thabo Mbeki was living in Mtendere. OR Tambo lived in state house for his own safety. Lusaka was even bombed due to presence of ANC freedom fighters.

    Today these people hypocritically refuse to help our country from Draconian PF & it’s evil followers on the lame excuse of not meddling in others affairs.

    ZCCM collapsed largely becoz of sanctions against Apartheid regime meant buying expensive spares from UK.

    If KK had NOT “meddled into internal affairs of RSA” Jacob Zuma wouldn’t be president. Maybe ZCCM would still be in the hands of Zambians instead of cr00ked infestors. Indeco companies would still be around to provide jobs to our youths.

    Refusing to condemn an evil…

  5. Under 5 politicks. How do you side with the opposition of a foreign country. In short he was telling HH to stop interfering I South African politicks by siding with the opposition.
    No SADC country would support such actions.

  6. THE DA LEADER LOOKS LIKE AN EMPTY TINS THAT MAKES A LOT NOISE. HE HAS THE ZEAL BUT LACK KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING . HERE IN ZAMBIA WE WOULD EQUATE HIM TO A KAPONYA OR RATHER A TRIGGER HAPPY POLITICIAN WITH A DIARRHOEA MOUTH. ZUMA HAS DEMONSTRATED IN THAT VIDEO THAT HE ON TOP OF THINGS IN AS FAR AS TACT AND DIPLOMACY IS CONCERNED.
    I THINK HH WAS EMBARRASSED …

    • You PF rats dont understand international politics, you only know tribalism and stealing…..do expect a leadership of another country to embrace the opposition of a friendly country ? If Zuma embraced hh how would lungu feel ??

      In developed countries opposition parties in different countries form alliances…that is normal

    • WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT…EXPLAIN PLEASE. THE ONLY THING I GET FROM THERE IS TRIBALISM, AND AM NOT SURPRISED BECAUSE FROM THE ABUNDANCE OF THE HEART THE MOUTH SPEAKS. CAN A UPND CARDER ACCUSE ANY OTHER POLITICAL PARTY OF TRIBALISM…?????????
      EVEN AS YOU POINT THAT ONE ACCUSING FINGER OF TRIBALISM AT PF , CHECK THOSE THREE FINGERS POINTING AT YOU.

  7. Zuma was fighting for freedom. HH is fighting election results.. come on. You can’t go and talk about your country in a bad way because you are not elected. HH is calling for South Africans to make sanctions against Zambia, to the opposition… what is wrong with you people? I didn’t think you would defend such stupidity. Guess what HH is exposing himself for what he is

    • You leant to read, if calling to intensified efforts against dictatorships and thuggery in leadership is calling for sanctions then good we all wish all dictators and thug leaders face sanctions….

    • Spaka you campaign to be elected and change things to your liking. Levy duped ftj by supporting his nonsense but when he got in power he changed things. You don’t go outside and start involving others in your bedroom affairs. What Zuma told hh was very good and we hope oval head has learned something there.
      He faked a medical certificate only to go and embarrass himself . He thought Zuma will agree with their under5 way of doing politics. Slap on your face.

    • Zuma too was fighting for the right to vote and it happened in 1994. Now imagine if that vote was stolen, all that Zuma and the rest fought for would have been meaningless.

    • Still crying for stolen vote when you have the mandatory constitutional period within which to deal with that..which you squandered on similar irrelevant issues..upnd people amaze me alot when they cry ‘petition must be heard’ when the constitution is clear on when that can be done

  8. I do recall during zccm we would buy spare parts from SA and fly them to England first before landing at KK just so that people dont say we were trading with the Boer regime…..

    • And buying coking coal from Germany which was mined next door in Zimbabwe so we couldnt be seen as trading with Ian Smith. Then we had to aitlift 1 million of finished copper to LME !!!

  9. Zuma spoke well and that is how it should be. You humble yourself and not wash your dirty linen in public. Your time will come.

  10. This is what a democracy looks like you cadres….Lazy Lungu can not survive in a Parliament like that he is too dull and arrogant to answer anything!!

    • Your comment clearly demonstartes your lack of political understanding. It maybe the reason why you don’t live in your own country to fight and enhance freedoms and democracy but you prefer to be a fringe citizen to the white man who lives on his own country and improves it. You say “Lungu” can’t survive in a parliament like that, but why would President Lungu go to a foreign parliament when his own kindred, the Zambians, endorsed him to head their parliament??? The rules of the German Bundestag are different from the English Parliament and both sets of people are proud of their own affairs. It takes cowards like you who disown their countries to scorn our institutions who our freedom fighters fought for and our current leaders are working hard to improve. YOU ARE SHAME TO YOUR…

    • Their system of governance is different from ours. Moreover Whenever lungu goes to parliament your tonga mps chickens out. How can they ask the president questions like that.

    • We live on a Global Village my friend…i think international so are my investments.
      Lazy Lungu can not survive that type of public scrutiny in Zambian Parliament…i write it again for it to sink in your small brain.

  11. Ba HH insoni ati bwanji?kikikikikikiki.surely did HH think that president Zuma would support his nonsense?this nigga has been losing elections since 2006,he thinks South Africans do not know this fact?
    Indeed HH is an under 5 politician.moreover,painting Zambia black to the outside world will never add any votes to upnd!!its like a f0olish child who goes out and says rubbish things about his home,would his parents be happy?never!!UPND’S ADVISORS ARE VERY WRONG CREATURES!!!
    WELL SAID PRESIDENT JACOB ZUMA!!HH AND UPND WERE VERY EMBARRASSED BY MR ZUMA!!

    • You PF rats dont understand international politics, you only know tribalism and stealing…..do expect a leadership of another country to embrace the opposition of a friendly country ? If Zuma embraced hh how would lungu feel ??

      In developed countries opposition parties in different countries form alliances…that is normal

    • WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT…EXPLAIN PLEASE. THE ONLY THING I GET FROM THERE IS TRIBALISM, AND AM NOT SURPRISED BECAUSE FROM THE ABUNDANCE OF THE HEART THE MOUTH SPEAKS. CAN A UPND CARDER ACCUSE ANY OTHER POLITICAL PARTY OF TRIBALISM…?????????
      EVEN AS YOU POINT THAT ONE ACCUSING FINGER OF TRIBALISM AT PF , CHECK THOSE THREE FINGERS POINTING AT YOU.

  12. You may call JZ alot of names but thats diplomacy right there. What happens if HH never gets elected to the relations already existing between the 2 nations? Or if HH gets elected and JZ or SA was siding with PF? Very true, this DA leader has all the zeal but very little or no wisdom/ knowledge.
    Please differentiate liberation struggle to the politics of nowadays.

  13. You PF rats dont understand international politics, you only know tribalism and stealing…..do expect a leadership of another country to embrace the opposition of a friendly country ? If Zuma embraced hh how would lungu feel ??

    In developed countries opposition parties in different countries form alliances…that is normal

    The PF rats think because you are in government everybody must be kneeling for you including opposition in other countries

    • …. FROM THE ABUNDANCE OF THE HEART THE MOUTH SPEAKS. CAN UPND ACCUSE ANY OTHER POLITICAL PARTY OF TRIBALISM…?????????
      EVEN AS YOU POINT THAT ONE ACCUSING FINGER OF TRIBALISM AT PF , CHECK THOSE THREE FINGERS POINTING AT YOU. OUR MEMORIES ARE STILL FRESH…

    • UPND CADRES ARE ALL SICK IN THE HEAD, SURELY YOU DONT GET WHAT ZUMA SAID, AS SIMPLE AS THAT?? I NW BILIV THAT THESE PEOPLE ARE BRAINWASHED

    • JUST WONDERING WHY UPND WAS NOT INVOLVED IN TRYING TO GET ZUMA IMPEACHED WHILE THEIR DA FRNDS WERE BUSY WITH THAT..JUST WONDERING…

  14. I really like the answer President Zuma gave to the DA captain, it was like a politcal lecture! HH, in short, the world is diplomatically telling you that you are too immature and dont understand how politics are done. Mr. Zuma is basically telling you that you were rightly detained and you are not suppose to be popping your ugly head in other Sovereign States affairs.
    Zambia is a Sovereign State and no outside forces and a minority opposition for that matter should confine itself were it belongs.

  15. SO SOMEONE LOSES ELECTIONS AND HE IS ALL OVER DISCREDITING HIS OWN COUNTRY AND U EXPECT A DEMOCRACY LIKE RSA TO SIDE WITH THAT CRAP?? WHAT FREEDOM IS HH FIGHTING FOR? FREEDOM FOR HIS FUNDERS, THE WHITE SUPREMACISTS? AFRICANS ARE STILL SLEEPING!!

  16. Ladies and gentlemen, don’t even waste your time on hh’s press briefing or the video above. please google or go to you tube and watch this: HAKAINDE HICHILEMA SA VISIT: IZAK KHOMO.

  17. #Zambian Citizen you a star, silence all these economic migrant twats especially the likes of Spaka like lilo kudos Zuma

  18. Juliet Perth …..just by the name one would know that the bloods that flows in you is that of racists, Kaunda and other African nations interfered in South Africa’s affairs because our brothers and sisters “original owners of land” were oppressed and killed by your people, invaders from whatever European country the came from…….I always feel like vomiting just by mentioning the Boers country of origin.
    Your people jumped on the boat just to come and oppress the black South Africans in their native land and you wanted KK and other African neighboring Leaders of then to just sit and watch.
    HH is egocentric who just want to be president even if the people doesn’t want him, that is proven plain and clear in 2016 when we voted against him, but he is still claiming to have been…

  19. @zambian thanks. I ve watched that video on sabc you tube hakainde hichilema visit to sa. Now let’s petition LT to post it here we educate these political amartures. Please LT do the right thing.

  20. That lady who facilitated HH’s release should be made responsible for his reckless and uncontrolled behavior. You are so quick to condemn government when they act but when a loose cannon is on the go, you are on mute. One wonders if this indeed is the new strategy to recolonize African countries. Zambian’s enjoyed the peace and some progress was made on real issues now this comedian is back in the lime light. What a disgrace!

  21. Nairobi (CNN)Kenya’s Supreme Court has ordered a rerun of the country’s contentious presidential election, after a legal challenge by the opposition.

    That is what we call independent judiciary and democracy, not in Zambia.
    I thought a number of PF here were discounting off Odinga and comparing him to HH? What do you say now?

    • Yes,the opposition had a watertight case case and did not waste time on irrelevant preliminary issues like who should be president during the petition, etc.Just cold hard evidence was enough to ANNUL the elections.A fresh election to be held in 60 days. Actually the opposition managed to present there case within the mandated period.Tell our HH plus his lawyers to learn from Odinga. However,NULLIFICATION does not mean Odinga will win.What happens if loses again,does he re – petition?What happens if Uhuru loses and petitions ? it’s going to be a long year for kenya!!Justice has been served nonetheless.I saw it coming when they killed the head of IT

    • “This time, his team (Odinga’s legal team) focused on proving that the process for tallying and transmitting results was flawed, rather than proving how much of the vote was rigged.”
      This is an excerpt from an international newspaper, The Telegraph. What is the difference with our case in Zambia?? hh’s team focused on preliminaries rather than PINPOINTING where the rigging took place as Odinga’s team have done. Believe me, this is a technicality on the part of the electoral authority. It doesn’t guarantee Odinga’s victory. I very much doubt Kenyatta’s suporters will do a 360. Faults will be found, but not enough to turn the result on its head.

    • The opposition in Kenya focused on the issue at hand rather than playing politics and articulated their arguments in the correct way, unlike their Zambian counterparts who try to force change undemocratically.

  22. This is very disappointing. I never expected HH to sink so low and behave in the manner he did in SA. No wonder he loses the elections and will continue doing so. He is not smart. Very useless man.

    • The guy is not a leader. He accepted conditions for his release but only to renegade on them. A true leader would have opted to stay in prison until his conditions were met. But alas HH was missing his jacuzzi he agreed to everything so that he could get out . I’m sure Mrs Scotland is very disappointed.

  23. Yes well Odinga,you went to court with facts ,no preliminaries involved ,no demands of which judge should sit or not sit on the bench of judges, no quarrels with the Electoral commission, just went to court with facts, within the stipulated time frame they get the verdict, Ba upnd learn from this, or next time consult lawyers for Mr Odinga rather than arguing with out facts until one gets incusalated

  24. HH is running out of ideas and I really feel for him. Loosing 5 five times is not a joke. Its painful and the only way to avoid further embarrassment is to quit politics and give chance to others to try their luck as well. He is afraid of loosing to one person three times because that will go in the book of world record. If UPND can come up with a credible candidate for presidency, 2021 is theirs cause PF have their own issues which is weakening them. But Africans don’t like retirement. They cling to power whether in opposition or in ruling parties.

  25. What Zuma answered was what any government official would say.
    If you remember. Zuma went with Obasanjo to statehouse knowingly encouraging him to meddle in our internal politics.
    Zuma is shifting his position now.
