Bowman Lusambo, Jean Kapata behaviour at parliament shameful-UPND

The behaviour by PF copperbelt Minister Bowman Lusambo to slap former Chief governement spokesperson and former Minister of Information and Broadcasting Services Chishimba Kambwili at Parliament is not just disgraceful but a serious demonstration of poor leadership in the PF led government.

Unfortunately ,we feel Speaker Patrick Matibini could have intervened quickly by disallowing breach of Standing Orders by PF MP Jean Kapata to rise for a counter point of order.

As a party ,we also expect the Speaker Matibini to ensure there is adherence to standing orders by all Members of Parliament regarless of their political affiliation.

We are of the view that the Speaker should have intervened to avoid the situation to degenerate.

It is also disheartening that this lawlessness and thuggery behaviour does not only manifest in the PF leadership but at the PF grassroots too.

When we warned the nation of PF thuggery behaviour, this is exactly what we meant.

We wish to warn Bowman Lusambo to leave caderism outside parliament when he is representing electorates.

Parliament is not a boxing ring but a legislative house.

It is not in the best interest of the nation for law-makers to engage in physical fights.

Law-makers are expected to debate matters and agree to disagree.

We pray that the speaker Matibini will take a decisive step to punish Bowman Lusambo and Jean Kapata for gross misconduct as he did for UPND MPs.

  1. When you want to advise, you must take a neutral stance. Kambwili provoked and insulted Lusambo, why hasnt’t Katuka and his upnd highlighted that??? I don’t support the violence exhibited by Lusambo but the truth is both were wrong and both should be castigated. Not this biased rubbish from this loser from that tribalist party. Keep you advice and opinion to yourself!!!

    • Responding in a manner the two did doesn’t reflect well on them whether provoked or not. Are these not the same people who have been loud mouthed saying they were led by a Christian ECL; under ECL’s tutorage? What you see is what they plan in the dark. It is now coming out. The devil comes but to steal, kill and destroy. That’s what happens when one makes the devil one’s pattern.

    • LT you should’ve used that picture were kakoma was antagonising with the police so we can judge which act is shameful

    • I think everyone in upnd has half brain each. They are not ashamed of their shallow thinking and analysis. The main factor is kambwili yet this dalo.old man decides not to mention him.

  2. No matter how much you are provoked , don’t fight. Go and report to the relevant authorities if at all you are insulted. And this problem normally manifests in life if we don’t teach our children in their formative stages not to fight. If at all you are grieved, and you are called honourable, walk away if provoked.

  3. Kambwili is being sponsored by this tribal party upnd because they think that if Kambwili damages PF,then people especially those in 6.5 provinces will have no option but to vote for HH-shocking!!
    LOOK KATUKA,YOUR HH IS NEVER AN OPTION.KAMBWILI CAN DREAM THE WAY MILES SAMPA,GUY SCOTT,MULENGA SATA DREAMED IN 2016.HH THOUGHT THOSE PEOPLE I HAVE MENTIONED WILL MAKE HIS UPND WIN IN 6.5 PROVINCES,ALAS UPND LOST WITH NO SINGLE MP IN PF STRONGHOLDS!!!people from the North and East are very wise.they cannot support a spoiler(CK)-never!!
    In fact Kambwili is just putting his life in danger in PF strongholds!!today CK cannot walk freely like before on the streets of Lsk and copperbelt.AS FOR YOU IN UPND,KEEP ON DREAMING!!FOR MOST OF US,COME 2021 NI PF NAFUTI NAFUTI!!

  4. Lusambo needs to be taught a lesson. Somebody should do to him what he likes to do to others -Kachingwe and now Kambwili.

  5. He is the ones who once claimed Luapula has colonized Lambas and also used a derogatory term ati ba Nyamazai against North Westerners. So two solid slaps on a Chimbwilic baboob by die hard Lamba bull and baptism by urine by a “mnyamazai” girl will teach this gorilla a lesson to shut up.

  6. “If their behavior was good” would you losers have said it? Would you have said “Well done, good behaviour:” Uzeress tribal party.

    • Ask him what he feels about Upnd MPs who have had scuffles at parliament in the past. Yes all parties involved are wrong.

  7. The behaviour of Kambwili, Lusambo and Kapata is shameful indeed. But even much more shameful and despicable is the public tribalistic display of tribalism by under5 during the last two weeks that he has appeared at public fora, for the avoidance of doubt I mean the tribalistic ceremonies, the tribalist language at the press briefing, insulting us Zambians as cowards etc etc. Mr Katuka you are from Mazoka era, you tell me the UP.NDonkeys have consuned you tgat easily? Ni nzala, my big man?
