The Failed Attempt of Regime Change in Zambia

Impeccable sources have been revealing about the meetings that have been taking place in South Africa between foreign financers and some Zambian opposition leaders. The most notable one was prior to the 2016 general elections when the financiers brokered a deal between two Zambian opposition parties where the presumed minor partner had to field the presidential candidate. But unfortunately the deal was rejected back home by the members of the major party.

Mubanga Luchembe wrote:

’Former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasango who advised the incarcerated UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema to put behind his defeat in last year’s elections is currently the chairperson of the Brenthurst Foundation. And incidentally just like Zambia’s Hakainde Hichilema and Kenya’s Raila Odinga is equally a pawn of the Anglo American founders.’’ (Zambia Daily Nation, 10th August 2017).

And in the same way Professor Mwiine Lubemba (Please note that it was not Mwinelubemba Chitimukulu) wrote:

‘’During election campaigns both Kenya’s Raila Odinga and Zambia’s Hakainde Hichilema were heavily financed and supported by the Brenthurst Foundation, an organization of regime change generation of African opposition leaders.’’ ’’ibid. 20th August 2017).

The civil rights activist Brebner Changala said:

‘’A highly sophiscated and heavily financed scheme to oust President Lungu and the PF has been hatched…… it has become fashionable for Western governments to influence regime change in Zambia and other African countries to counter the Asian influence, particularly the Chinese dominance in Africa since they have felt betrayed by PF and the late President Sata’s failure to chase the Chinese, a campaign message that was used to dethrone the MMD.’’ (Daily Nation 11th January 2016).

Two weeks after the 2016 general elections, the Operation Revenge was launched i.e., government offices in Lukulu burnt; Mr. Abraham Mwansa’s Lusaka West lodge burnt; Lusaka city Market was burnt; Zesco infrastructure destroyed and causing black-outs to frustrate the citizens etc. And what can any government do in such a situation? All responsible governments throughout the world have got safety outlets for such situations in order to protect its citizens from criminal activities and anarchy. And currently there are in fact state of emergencies in France and Turkey.

Article 31 in our Constitution states: (1) The President may at any time by proclamation publish in the Gazette declare that a situation exists which if is allowed to continue may lead to a state of public emergency.’’ And therefore in view of the above President Lungu on 5th July 2017 invoked Article 31 and asked Parliament to debate the his move.

President Lungu did not declare a state of emergency as the Constitution clearly states on Article 31: ‘’If allowed to continue may lead to a state of public emergency.’’ Those blind experts should tell us what should be done in such situations or shut up. What is mostly heart-wrenching is the fact that those who have been agitating against this measure are supposed to be highly educated in this field.

A Nigerian preacher, Dr. Chris Kwakpovwe wrote: ‘’When lawyers begin to become liars, then there is a scarcity of faithful people on earth.’’ And No wonder John Phiri sarcastically asked:

“…which universities did these educated fools go to where they were given degrees, masters and PhDs on how to plunder the nation’s funds.” (Education Post 10th July 2005)

And incidentally who were responsible for Operation Revenge? One can only understand when you study the gimmicks and underhand tactics of the capitalist-exploiter. And this can be drawn from spy books like ‘’For the President’s Eye Only,’’ or ‘’Spy: Uncovering Craig Williamson’’ of how whites had infiltrated nationalists’ organizations. These books give details of how they succeeded in betrayals and doing atrocities.

The Strategy to Diffuse Article 31

And since the white man does not care whatever can happen to an African and it was therefore imperative that Operation Revenge had to continue at all costs. President Kaunda in A Humanist in Africa expressed it very clearly:

‘’The European knew the African as servant and employee __ as an extension of a broom or a shovel….. certainly, they showed kindness and even generosity to those Africans they encountered in various relationships. They gave them many things ___ coddled them when ill; helped to educate their children; treated them with a certain fond of indulgence. But their relationships tended to be one-way, with the European dictating the degree of intimacy. There was lacking that basic honesty and openness of true friendship.’’

[pullquote]the capitalist-exploiter knows that the majority of Zambians have great passion and are over zealous on issues which they hardly understand[/pullquote]

The capitalist-exploiter is a great strategist and he is as well blessed with the gift of wit and he leads with truth but never to truth. He knows that the majority of Zambians have great passion and are over zealous on issues which they hardly understand. What our bloggers lack is thinking at the analytical lever. The veteran politician Ba Sikota Wina once said:

‘’We inflate little things and pretend they are big…..our complaints and our controversies, our commotions and our causes have grown ridiculous and we have all of us, become specialists in transforming the trivial into momental. Even deeply personal matters have become public debate, even President Mwanawasa’s baptism can cause political controversies.’’ (The Post 15th March 2005).

Let me digress to quote what The Post observed in the editorial:

‘’Our society has very few thinkers…..when our future generations ask themselves who the greatest thinkers were at this stage of our history, what will they find? We are afraid they may come up with none. If they should see an amorphous mass of mediocrity ruled by fear of being thought different and in so being subversive. It should not surprise us. It is because we only have time to chase after the little material gleam that is left from the plunderers’ table and nothing more.’’ (ibid. 29th June 2005).

Indeed, it is very unfortunate that there exists in this country, a deep sense of intellectual timidity, which means that the majority of ‘’genuine’’ intellectuals are in the habit of ‘’thinking with breaks on.’’ This is where one realizes the excruciating dilemma in which bona-fide intellectuals find themselves because they have to trim their minds continually in order to stay ‘’on course’’, that is, in line with quack ‘’intellectuals’’ who have dominated the intellectual scene.
[pullquote]the majority of genuine intellectuals in Zambia are in the habit of thinking with breaks on.[/pullquote]

And this unfortunate scenario has consigned the entire nation on the same intellectual and political wave-bands and this was easily identified by the South African Communist Party Secretary-General, Dr. Blade Nzimande, when he visited this country and met the leaders of different political parties and the civil society groups in separate meetings:

‘’What is disappointing in Zambia is the extent to which virtually all the major political parties that will be contesting elections this year (i.e., 2006) are effectively committed to a path broadly similar to that of Chiluba.’’ (Sunday Post 9th April 2006).

The strategy by the capitalist-exploiters to undermine President Lungu’s leadership can best be understood from the following Bible account. King Ahab wanted to buy Naboth’s vineyard since it was close to the palace, but Naboth refused because it was an inheritance from a long line of generations of his ancestors. However, the king’s wife, Jezebel hatched a workable evil scheme and wrote letters in the king’s name: ‘’Proclaim a day of fasting and seat Naboth in a prominent place among the people. But seat two scoundrels opposite him and have them testify that he (Naboth) has cursed both God and the king. Then take him out and stone him to death.’’ (1 Kings 21:9-10).

In the same way the white capitalists picked two of their South African political puppets to carry out fierce propaganda against President Lungu and denounce him as a dictator. Julius Malema, the leader of opposition Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) and Mmusi Maimane the figure-head of the white political party, the Democratic Alliance (DA).

On 28th July 2017 a Zambian tabloid was full of praise for Julius Malema who was described as a leader of the main opposition party in South Africa. But to the contrary, the South African tabloid ‘’The New Age’’ of 1st August 2017 described Julius Malema as ‘’a useful idiot used at the will of others as a pawn.’’ And here is a paradox: in Zambia Julius Malema is a celebrated hero, while in his mother country he is a just a petty idiot. And in ‘’The New Age’’ of 3rd August 2017 Mmusi Maimane was described as ‘’hypocrite,’’ and that DA was a party of chameleons who do not understand democracy. This clearly means Maimane is a very unprincipled person who can change his colours at anytime.

And here is what Yonela Diko, a media strategist and consultant wrote in New Age: ‘’In June 2008, Julius Malema made a name for himself when he declared at the ANC Youth league meeting that the youths would take up arms and kill for ANC President Jacob Zuma. And three months later he went further and vowed to ‘eliminate any force’ blocking Zuma’s path to the presidency. In March 2010, Malema singing ‘shoot the Boer’ at the University of Johannesburg campus caused the whites to obtain an injunction from the Pretoria High Court preventing Malema from uttering the words, ‘shoot the Boer.’ And in June 2010 documents were filed at the International Criminal Court (ICC) at the Hague, charging Malema with mass incitement of violence towards white Afrikaans farmers.
‘’In February 2012 Malema was expelled from ANC and formed the Economic Freedom Fighters political party. And now he took it as his personal project to humiliate and embarrass the very person he was willing to die for in order to make him President. In March 2016 he told the South Africans: ‘In between now and the impeachment, President Zuma will not speak in Parliament and we will stop him physically. We will push him because he is no longer the President of South Africa.’
‘’And what became of problems with the whites? Well, the privileged predominantly white who had done everything to create a monster out of Malema were going out of their way to use the dominant instruments of propaganda, which, by definition, is at the disposal of the privileged.

[pullquote]The privileged used the situation to sow a pretty picture of Malema and an ugly picture of the ANC because Malema had finally become their useful idiot whom they could use to deal with their everlasting black majority fears.[/pullquote]

 

Dividing the black votes so that the whites could stop feeling like a minority was the ultimate target and proved Malema useful.
‘’Thereafter the once scare-mongering Malema was heaped lavish praise by the media for political brilliance. Julius Malema commands media attention akin to President Zuma but he only had 6% of the national vote while Zuma commands 62%. What was the purpose of overselling Malema in this manner by the white-controlled media? Today, the attacks on his private life have turned into excessive compliments. In April 2016 East Coast Radio called him Mr. Romantic. Mr. Romantic? That is what the media is calling Malema these days no more searching for his wealth and his investments to expose him and they now call him adorable.
‘’Rod MacKenzie writing in Mall & Guardian in February 2015 said: ‘I have developed respect for Malema and his party that I never thought I would have. They had sheer guts to stand up in Parliament to call Zuma a thief, even a ‘great thief, the greatest in the world’.

The Malema who was once reported to the ICC for crimes against humanity is no more. His fight against ANC President has turned him to a hero of the white world. Today he is even invited into white parties to come and make his idiotic noise, everyone knows he has no power; he is just a media creature who serves the white purpose.’’

It was ANC’s Zizi Kodwa who has labeled DA leader Mmusi Maimane a hypocrite and that he and his party did not understand democracy. In South Africa support for political parties at the polls has continued to be along racial lines. S’Thembiso Msomi, Mmusi Maimane’s biographer wrote in the book, Mmusi Maimane: Prophet or Puppet?: ‘’Even with the celebrated Nelson Mandela at the helm, the ANC struggled to win votes among the country’s minorities while parties such as the National Party and the Democratic Party got their votes mainly from those constituencies.
‘’Tony Leon grew the Democratic Party and subsequently the Democratic Alliance (DA) by consolidating the party’s support among minorities. Helen Zille used this strong base and the DA’s status as the official opposition, to try and convince black voters that her party was the only viable alternative to ANC.’’
And since DA was a party dominated by the whites but on the other hand the black votes are a must in order to be ‘’a viable alternative to ANC,’’ then what sort of a black candidate would qualify to be acceptable by both the blacks and the whites to lead the party.

Mmusi Maimane qualified as ‘’a rented black’’ in the DA’s white party since he is married to a white woman.

And Helen Zille ‘’hastily convened a party leadership meeting to announce her plans to step down. It was highly believed by most people that ‘’he had been ‘anointed’ by Zille and that he would be a ‘token leader’ easily manipulated by the party’s ‘real powers behind the throne’.’’ In fact what really happened was merely the transfer of leadership from one white woman to another (i.e., Maimane’s white wife) and Maimane is just a mere proxy.

The truth of Maimane being a proxy is recorded by his biographer, S’Thembiso Msomi: ’’Maimane’s critics often complain that he over-relies on his public speaking abilities to conceal the fact that he has no real solutions of his own.’’

A journalist Jan-Jan Joubert who had followed the DA for several years holds this opinion of Maimane: ‘’He is a public speaker and, as with such speakers, they are only good when they have good speeches in front of them. He does not actually write his own.’’ He is a mere actor playing a character that has already scripted for him. Columnist and former DA staffer Gareth van Onselen wrote two searing articles that put into question his suitability for the party’s top job. In the first of the two, Van Onselen described Maimane as the DA’s own ‘’Manchurian candidate,’’ hence likening him to a character in a novel and movie by the same name who runs for public office at the behest of his puppet masters. The character has no views of his own and does, for the most part, as he is told.

The subsequent article called Maimane a ‘’hollow man’’ who is surrounded by ‘’the biggest production team the party has ever assembled.’’ Van Onselen continues ‘’any rare conversation with him on a difficult subject, requires a full and proper briefing, is like watching a news presenter with a broken teleprompter. They might boast a golden voice but the words are incoherent and ultimately meaningless.’’

Van Onselen noted:

’Maimane has no views of his own and does, for the most part, as he is told.’’

This trend was exhibited when the Zambia High Commissioner to South Africa, His Excellency, Emmanuel Mwamba warned Maimane that it would be inappropriate at that time to travel to Zambia to attend the incarcerated UPND leader, Hakainde Hichilema’s trial. But this advice fell on deaf ears because he had already received orders from Vice-President Cyril Ramaphosa to travel to Zambia. And how did it come to be known? It was because Vice-President Cyril Ramaphosa called High Commissioner, Emmanuel Mwamba and bitterly complained as to why Maimane had been barred from entering Zambia. And this complaint for protocol’s sake could at least have been lodged by the foreign affairs office and not the Vice-President. On the other hand, it proved that ANC’s Zizi Kodwa was right when he labeled DA leader Mmusi Maimane as a hypocrite and a chameleon because as an opposition leader why should he receive orders from the ANC leadership! This clearly proves that Maimane is a very unprincipled person.

[pullquote]And deducing from the fore-goings both Malema and Maimane are just puppets on the whites’ payroll[/pullquote]

And deducing from the fore-goings both Malema and Maimane are just puppets on the whites’ payroll and in fact one of their fellow country men, former South African President, P.W. Botha who according to the current situations in both South Africa and Zambia had hit a nail on the head when he said that the white man would use the African’s love of money to destroy him. ‘’Here is a creature who lacks foresight.’’

    • ‘’Our society has very few thinkers…..” starting with the author himself. He cites the daily nation as “impeccable sources?”

      Politics has clouded our minds in Zambia. Even an electrical fault is now “operation revenge!” What dullness is this surely. Until we start to think soberly, and more especially by leaders who we expect to be non partisan, we are doomed.

    • This chief needs to have his head examined.

      I would be very very worried if MY chief wrote such hulabaloo. Imagine the Litunga writing such an article.

    • @jealous I know it’s a hard pill to swallow but just because we don’t like what the chief is saying is no reason to dismiss him without founding out the truth for ourselves. Its obvious to see that Malema is no longer the force he used to be.Whites hated him but these days they seem happy to use him to try to get Zuma out of power(the evidence of that is all over newspapers,internet you tube etc) For Maimane-having lived among white south africans I tend to agree that he is a ‘black for rent’.The whites in south africa largely despise blacks and if they give you a leadership position know its for their own benefit…I have no evidence about the Brenthurst foundation so I can’t comment.

    • Mwine Lubemba is usually a very objective writer but this article is lopsided. Shall we also look at who financed PF and Edgar for a balanced view? The Nigerian pastor you quoted isn’t Edgar one of them? Having misused clients money? What would you say about a man who dines with mugabe Museveni and kagame?? Then you bring about city market common your highess! At the hight of the zero option didn’t we see a spate of bombings in zambia to date no explanation has been made. Zambians are peaceful people! The most dangerous people are politicians especially theives because they worry about losing their loot. This whole PF thing is one of Zambia’s biggest mistake and for this president? One of the worst! If you continue on this path your highness l am afraid we will not see the…

    • SUPER WRITING BY THE CHIEF AGAIN. I HAVE BEEN WAITING THE ARTICLE FROM THE CHIEF FOR LONG. PLEASE, WRITE REGULARLY. I PARTICULRLY, MISS YOUR ARTICLES. I ALWAYS CAN’T WAIT. YOU HAVE JUST HIT THE NAIL ON ITS HEAD MWE MFUMU.

    • Sosala write BS and crap…..he is so condescending ….how can he honestly justify such….”And deducing from the fore-goings both Malema and Maimane are just puppets on the whites’ payroll”. Hoew can he take word from Emmanuel Mwamba as gospel truth as regards Ramaphosa?

    • I have never seen so much speculation and pseudo-intellectualism masquerading as knowledge.

      Just go and screw one of your subjects boss.

    • I smell serious PF cadre mentality hidden in a pile of phrases and quotations. At individual level and in the original context, the quotations and phrases make some sense but when you consider the context in which they are written, one can only laugh- what a waste!

    • IT ALWAYS PAINS ME TO REALISE THAT MOST ZAMBIANS ESPECIALLY THE EDUCATED ONES ARE JUST USEFUL IDI0TS WITH NO INDEPENDENT INTELLECTUAL (LET ALONE WISDOM) ANALYTICAL CAPACITY. IT IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE THAT THE WEST ARE NOT HAPPY ABOUT ZAMBIA’S FLORISHING ECONOMIC RELATIONSHIP CHINA. THE WEST DUMPED AFRICA IN A VERY UNCEREMONIOUS STYLE FOR EASTERN EUROPEANS IN THE NAME OF EU. THEY THOUGHT (AND THESE THINGS ARE WRITTEN) THEY HAD GOT ALL THEY NEEDED FROM AFRICA INCLUDING AFRICAN SLAVES AND THEY WILL NEVER NEED AFRICA AGAIN. ALAS, THEY HAVE MADE THE MOST SERIOUS BLUNDER, EVER. CHINA HAS COME TO AFRICA (CHINA CAME TO ZAMBIA IN THE EARLY 70s) ON A WIN-WIN BUSINESS DEAL. THE WEST IS NOT HAPPY AND IN A HURRY TO RE-OCCUPY AFRICA, AGAIN. THERE’S NO RACE WHICH HAS NEVER (AND STILL CONTINUE TO)…

    • …THERE’S NO RACE WHICH HAS NEVER (AND STILL CONTINUE TO) MISTREAT AFRICANS. EVEN CHINA HAS BUT ON A SMALL SCALE BUT THEY KEEP ON IMPROVING THE RELATIONSHIP WITH AFRICA AND RECOGNISE AFRICA AS A BUSINESS PARTNER AND NOT, SLAVE MASTER AND SLAVE PROPERTY. IF BLOGGERS ARE IN DOUBT, PLEASE, READ HORWARD FRENCH’S NOVEL, CHINA’S SECOND CONTINENT, OR JUST WATCH HIS BOOK PROMOTION INTERVIEW/SPEACHES. THE ANALISI OF CHITIMUKULU IS TRUE TO THE POINT AND LEAVES, “NO STONE UNTURNED”.

      This is a senior chief who was almost not recognised upon ascending to the Bemba chiefdom throne.
      This is a senior chief who mingles with politicians of the day upon being presented with brown envelopes.
      This is a senior chief who barred some of his subjects from attending his traditional ceremony on account of not contributing to the organising costs of the same.
      This is a shameless senior chief who confers with a dictator president in the nation despite his rhetorical, nationalistic and patriotic views expressed in the article.

    • The author (chitimukulu) deliberately ignores how PF & sata/lungu have SOLD our country to tu ma Chinese. Chinese have been given HUGE tracts of land. Chinese are even taking chicken, ndandashi, salaula businesses from locals due to poor governance. Even the business-women who used to travel to China have been put of business bcoz everything is being brought in by Chinese “infestors”.

      Luburma market & the burnt Lusaka market have been sold to Chinese.

      ZNBC has been sold to Chinese

      ZCCM-IH has been sold to an Israeli shelf company

      How much did Chinese pump into PF campaign? What has lungu given them in return?

      Go to State-house. It’s one Chinese delegation after another.

      Chitimukulu is a hired gun himself.

    • So it proves his point: : “…it has become fashionable for Western governments to influence regime change in Zambia and other African countries to counter the Asian influence, particularly the Chinese dominance in Africa…” It’s a struggle for control. The reality is PF prefer to work with the Chinese who seem to have less conditionalities than the upnd’s westeners whose support comes with heavy conditions!!!

    • When you pf rats realise you have nothing to offer the west, when you realise you are nothing but beggers to the west, when you realise Zambia can not survive without hand outs and aid from the west you will be less hostage to the Chinese.. ..

    • Zambian Citizen: That is why the Chief says Zambian become over excited for things they have very little knowledge about. Just here people are failing to get the flow of the Chief’s article. It is called “readability”. We do not follow the argument but look for what suits us. The people who are being praised us “heroes” in Zambia are being called *****s and hypocrites in their own country. Can someone cite which Chinese has been praised by any local newspaper or political party but called an ***** in China? Please Zambians let us learn to follow arguments. I also like the way Miyanda writes and most of us do not follow his arguments because of the same issue of being excited without knowledge. The Bible is correct: My people perish for lack of knowledge.

    • I have always been suspicions about this chief and he is gradually proving me right, a PF carder masquerading as a national leader. It is really worrying when in the middle of efforts towards national reconciliation, so called traditional leaders are the ones throwing spanners in the works. I thought wisdom came with age. I urge this chief to not be misled by his tribesmen who are renowned for praising every venom spewed by one of there own, a sign of lack of integrity. If my king had such a mindset as this chief, l would bow my head in shame. But then that’s because l have integrity. I always wondered why Sata did not want this chief anywhere near the throne. Now l know why. Emotional intelligence is a learned skill

  1. sponsored article. sorry my chief now you are peddling people’s agenda and now i understand why Sata treated you the way he did. You are tricky…

  2. Amazing to see what the Chitimukulu has become or reduced himself to. I guess everyone has their price. Sad, even painful to accept that this is real. Going forward, l will be suspicious of anyone with authority and power.

    • @Shu shu shu, being dull is sad and unfortunately it is not like madness which can be treated at Chainama. Chitimukulu Henry Sosala has exposed himself to be a common PF cadre like Lusambo, Kampyongo and Kamba

  3. Insightful and fulfilling, your highness!!! This insight is priceless and exposes the behavior of our opposition and its leaders and supporters. It also confirms why most of the ANC are not comfortable with Ramaphosa and prefer Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma. SUPER ARTICLE, TWASANTA MWANE!!!!! Looking forward to part III.

  4. This article sounds like that of Emmanuel Mwamba not Mwine Lubemba. Anyway, i cant be surprised to read such articles in the name of chitimukulu because someone somewhere is trying to protect his job after some rumours that ECL is about to make changes to his cabinet. Whatever propaganda you bring before us will NOT change our position on to to support in the next elections. You are wasting your time and energy thinking that you will convince us to hate someone you hate with passion.

  5. No wonder Sata refused to recognise him. I think he has psychiatric problems this Chief. The whole article is so illogical. He has attacked Maimane, Malema, Ramaphosa, Odinga, Obasanjo and Hakainde. Quoting trash newspapers such as the New Age owned by the Guptas who have ripped South Africa of Billions of Rand through corrupt deals with Eskom and the government. I am not partisan but I read widely and analyse issues on both sides of the political divide. Let me ask a stupid question. What would happen to his relationship with the Presidency in case HH won the next election? Remember the Previous Chief Justice who refused to greet Sata in church only for Sata to win the elections? Wise People learn from other peoples mistakes. The Chitimukulu is not wise! Unfortunately!

  6. this article and part 1 are factual.. but you might start to understand how we (PF) are always ahead of the opposition… If you have watch the political battles from the time of chasing trucks you will admit that we are just too good. i can understand that the difference of 100000 to get to state house must hurt but don’t hate the player hate the game… I repeat that the UPND should start publising evident they so that you can dig in the 100000 otherwise 2021 will be tougher. SONTA

  7. This is not Chitimukulu, he is Chitimwaiche.

    Very disappointing. Sata is being proven right why he never wanted this chap to be Paramount chief. His true colours are now showing. He is full of c.r.a.p. Someone advise him to stay out of f.u.c.k.i.n.g politics. Nshamonapo imfumu iya temwa ubupushi ngabamdala aba. Chitimukulu is now fair game for insults and loss of respect: I had no idea he is so dull and ubupuba. Natusebanya imfumu mambala. If he wants to keep his respect he should keep out of politics.

  8. *********BREAKING NEWS********

    Paramount Chief Chitimukulu has been appointed as Assistant Press Secretary to the President. He will be reporting to Mr Amos Chanda, with immediate effect. State House announced in a brief statement that the President will benefit from Chitimukulu’s extensive experience as Paramount Chief working and dealing with people.

  9. I knew where this article was leading to, its a shame the man who has held in high esteem has stooped to low to appease Lungu. Chitimukulu you are a DISGRACE to my Bemba tribe, shame on you, shame! My advice to is stop masquerading as a Bemba thief sorry chief and jump on the Lungu wagon.

  10. I think this paramount chief is losing it. Apart from copying and pasting from newspapers and books I do not see much original thinking.He is now jumping to illogical conclusions, I wonder whom he is trying to impress.I think late Sata saw through this man and thats why he did not want him to be a paramount chief.

  11. This chief must smoke something illigal…..

    Chief, FYI , Zambia is nothing but a drain on western tax payers, Zambia has copper so have many other countries where it is cheaper to extract…zambia has trace precious metals…..what would the world’s diamond cartel want in Zambia where the Chinese and Indians have everything anyway ?? The Chinese and Indians own Zambia for minimum 25 years contracts and they can not just be chased , there are international laws…..you are a deluded chief…..total garbage….

  12. Ask the chief who he thinks mutati is begging for forigne investment and IMF bail outs……if is not the same west the deluded chief is saying want to take over Zambia then the world is crazy…

  13. SOSA ICAALO CILEKUMFWA MWINE LUBEMBA…………..YOU ARE A FEARLESS CHIEF WHO CALLS A SPADE A SPADE….

    Imperialists have not be given space in Africa again..never again !!!!!!!!!!
    ……..Never to sell your soul for a few kwachas…..

  14. Imperialists should not be given space in Africa again..never again !!!!!!!!!!
    ……..Never to sell your soul for a few kwachas…..
    CORRECTED

  15. This shows Brenthurst Foundation does not really understand Zambians. KK gave us good education after the mines were nationalised. Chiluba denationalised them and what do we have, KCM, Mopani etc full of threats. Anglo American has been here in Zambia before, when things were bad they left us with no remorse for the employees who were working for them. Zambians are now more resolute than before, they have seen both sides of the coin and they cannot be cheated by fake heroes. Maimane, Malema, Odinga, HH etc, should discover an Island in the Caribbean and rule it. Here in Africa, power will allude them forever, especially now that people are aware who their pay masters are.

  16. I cannot imagine South Africans can let Maimane rule SA after what they went through during the Apartheid period. Today Maimane is a voice of the minority, when in the past the same minority mistreated the majority. I tested the tough military compulsory training just to prepare Zambia for a WAR with SA. Maimane should be ashamed of his agenda which will take him nowhere. Our own Maimane here (HH) has flopped 5 times trying to become a President of Zambia. HH should retrospectively assess himself why he is failing, one major reason could be that he is associated with Anglo American full time. The developments that we are seeing in Zambia could not have been done if it relied on the West….. not at all. SA got developed because the minority used the Blacks as slaves, who had no say…

    • @ Stanley Laban

      Boss which planet are you on. Have you forgotten how Maimane’s party thrashed ANC in local government elections last year. Today Maimane’s party is controlling Joburg and even Tshwane the capital city. People have now seen through the fake lies of ANC. What Maimane has achieved since he got to that seat is magical. ANC is in trouble next elections, it will probably still win but with a much reduced majority. For Maimane it’s just a matter of time. South Africa is a now changed country. You hate whites with a passion, but whites built South Africa which the blacks are now enjoying. Look at the suffering that Zambians are enduring in poverty, because of black leadership.

    • Judge Masipha, its not that I hate Whites, its just that if you are a young person not knowing what the so called Whites did to blacks and what they continue doing to blacks in their own countries, I don’t think you would praise Maimane for what he stands for. The Joburg you are referring to is full of lazy people who thrive on drug dealing etc for fast life. The people who really appreciate the ANC are the rural dwellers who are in majority and ANC have taken running water, electricity, better housing etc. Democracy is about majority rule and not minority rule like your Joburg example. Come next elections ANC will still be in power. You can contact me if your Maimane wins and I will buy you a present of your life.

    • Judge: Wait for the Presidential and Parliamentary Elections then you will know what is up in the air. This was a protest vote if you are not aware. White and Black can never mix. Its like oil and water in the engine block.

  17. Maimane OR My Money?
    He’s a total sell-out to Africa. We have not forgotten how much pain My-Money’s party inflicted upon Zambia under Voster and Botha.

  18. What money can do. Even a Chief is not spared! Africa is in deep trouble. No matter what this Chief says, the truth is that there is now extreme poverty and extreme corruption in this country than during the time of President Mwanawasa! Does this Chief expect people to seat and watch this decay? Why?

  19. Mwinelubemba I respected you before but now I know you are fake tata imwe. Please stop disgracing us and quit being our chief if you want to go political

  20. How can a paramount chief sink so low? Have you ever seen the Litunga writing nonsense on social media? Please impeach this moron!

  21. One thing that stands out is that our chief spends more time in his library reading books, newspapers, novels all day. I can picture a room stacked to the ceiling with reading material. Quoting Blade Nzimande!? Nzimande is a communist! A failed system that the USSR and China have discarded with contempt! They have adopted the capitalist way of doing business and are they successful! Nzimande is still hanging on to something that will never work!

  22. The Mwinilubemba is an analytical thinker… All those trying to ridicule him are just pretending and want to look the other side… but now most right thinking Zambians have now confirmed what they knew already why the Supreme Leader of the un named opposition party is so desperate and now dining with the Boer Party of South Africa… The Mwinilubemba has reached the Post Conventional Level of moral reasoning according to Kohlberg’s Cognitive Moral Development…to state what is right

    • Most of us are just at the Conventional level where we just follow what others are doing without analysing and applying critical thinking…

    • Zakeyo, the people we hated and kicked out of power so we could be independent, why has it become so hard to detach ourselves from them? We don’t rush to China or Moscow to ask for food but we unashamedly trek to the people who we kicked out! Don’t you see hyper hypocrisy here! If we had the balls (amatole ayakulu) we would have completely been reliant exclusively on our very own selves after gaining so called independence. It’s obvious that it isn’t Brenthurst who are creating our suffering but ourselves. The British left a rich country but what did the new leaders do? Exactly like Mugabe, they deliberately and systematically destroyed the economy. Where are we now? 86% live in abject poverty and the lucky 14% are symbiotic organisms attached to and living off state coffers. I hope…

  23. YOu cant talk black and sleep white? Serious questions on maimane. but on julius malema am not so sure. i will need to see facts for myself. all i know is that if there was a person who has been vocal about white supremacy it is julius malema. Chitimukulu has lost the second article a bit.

  24. The danger exists that His Majesty the ChitiMukulu could be seen to be taking the side of the PF regime, which is fair enough, however, the issue in discussion here is important, His Majesty raises a serious concern to the effect that the opposition is being sponsored by imperial forces which in itself is damaging to the sovereignty of our dear country. This issue of the upnd being sponsored by exploiters of Africa and specifically Zambia is worth taking note.

    • @Eye-of-Horus
      The exploitation takes place with our eyes wide open. That argument doesn’t hold water. We know how they are doing the exploitation, don’t we? How is it we don’t put a stop to it?

  25. Pretentious writing! Long quotes from unreliable sources, incoherent and unconvincing arguments makes it a dishonest and biased article.

  26. I count thirty comments above on the article by Mwine Lubemba. The article and the comments together I can summarise into one statement: under5 is the same as Malema and Maimane, a shallow minded stooge of white imperialism and neo colonialism. Can anyone, even a UPNDonkey doubt that Maimane and Malema are stooges of the neo racist boers? If under5 goes to bed with Maimane and Malema, what does that make underfive? A fellow stooge of course.

  27. From part one and two of the chief’s articles it’s clear that most of those attacking him have not grasped the gist of his argument. My understanding is that he is not for any of the ideological divides that have wrought confusion on most minds but is highlighting the dilemmas they have created for the African to effectively identify with their true heroes.He is therefore right on point to sound a warning to the likes of HH and their supporters not to stample down on the true African reflect of heroism by falling prey to imperialist machinations

  28. It was interesting to read comments by South Africans about the deportation of Maimane, they were not kind on him. Most were happy that he was put in his place. Ramaphosa was ordered to order the police to shoot miners at Malikani by his sponsors. This is indeed a great article, unless you’ve slept at the graveyard before then you can disparage Mwine Lubemba. Under 5 will cry again

  29. @30 zagaze, the point is not that Malema is the same as Maimane. The point is that to the racist muppeteers of Maimane, Malema serves their purpose very well and probably funded by them. Remember the adage “My enemy’s enemy is my friend”?

  30. The Mwine Lubemba is clearly disgusted that under5 could have destroyed the UPND of that great son of Zambia Andy Mazoka into today’s UPNDonkeys. Remember that Mazoka had great friends and support base in northern and other parts of Zambia? He had great appeal on a national level, including myself Terrible and my friends. On the other hand under the “leadership” of under5 the UPNDonkeys has been reduced to a regional party, actually a tribal party at the core, with satellite tribes in tow to make it 3.5 against 6.5 at national level.

  31. @ 38 reader, you have clearly not made good use of your discernment. What His Majesty Mwine Lubemba is saying is that we have for long worshipped and falsely elevated fraud stars who by connivance with imperialists and forces of international capital have plundered and looted our resources with very minimal returns. And that given chance the next time we should probably be more cautious in dealing with them. Surely that is more than loaded with great ideas. Well done Mwine Lubemba

  32. The PF have sold out to foreigners. MMD sold out to foreigners. HH is running to be a better dog to represent the whims of the foreigners. There is no real Zambian focused leader to wrest Zambia from the foreigners. Mutati is always running off to the IMF/WB to seek further chains to bind us into slavery..I see no reason why HH, Lungu, RB, Mumba, Nawakwi etc should not all be treated with the same sale-out paint brush.
    We have all these people running their political parties with the same agenda of keeping Zambia enslaved by foreigners – whether they are Chinese, Indian, Americans, British, or South African …they are all foreigners. And soon Choppies, will see Botswana start taking the chunk of Zambian retail space while Zambians are busy running Tuntembas, and the PF are running a…
