Southern Province Chiefs: Chief Mukuni and Chief Hamusonde

Chief Hamusonde’s Press Aid Joel Hang’omba of Monze District has claimed that Chief Hamusonde has been missing on the government payroll for the past three months.

Mr Hang’omba disclosed the development to Radio Chikuni News that other chiefs that have been sidelined by government are Senior Chief Mukuni and Chief Mwanachingwala.

Mr. Hang’omba says contrary to Chiefs and Traditional Affairs Minister Lawrence Sichalwe who told Parliament that no chief has been removed from government payroll without cause.

He has challenged Mr Sichalwe to consult officers who are responsible for payments of Chiefs to explain why three traditional leaders have not received their payroll for the last three months.

And Mr. Hang’omba has advised Southern Province Patriotic Front (PF) Media and Publicity Secretary Trymore Mweenda to stop mocking farmers by claiming that government is doing a tremendous work to improve the welfare of farmers in the Province.

    • Next the PF hypocrites will be praying for national unity this Wednesday public holiday.

      Hear and know this: God can and will not be mocked,

      He sees the secret places hidden from ordinary view and knows the greed and selfishness that drives our misleaders. He will suffer the nonsense but for a short while, but will soon rise and put an end to your murderous mindset. You have been warned.

    • The hypocrisy of Lungu leaves me ashamed, in one one hand he is holding a bible, in the other, a sword!

      God what have we done wrong to deserve PF mafiasos for leadership?

      PF are a butch of shameless liars and crooks who lie about everything and holds on to power through any crooked means available in the book-even through mocking God himself by declaring nation day of player when it does not mean a thing to Lungu and many of his followers!

    • Imwe these are politicians and business masquerading as chiefs. They are just cowards to enter the political boxing ring. They don’t deserve a cake of government money.

    • 1.5……..The day of national prayers is a time of worship to the one & only GOD not satanic rituals and prayers like Gonde & Lwiindi Ceremonies.

    • WHY WOULD THIS CHIEF WANT TO BE IN THE NEWS ALWAYS – HAS HE GOT POLITICAL AMBITION?
      ========================================
      I am honestly tired of reports attributed to Chief Mukuni? Why does it sound like he acting like a child???? Should he not be respected and stay of the media. Should he not make news uplifting the lives of his subjects and people. What the hell is wrong with Mukuni anyways?

  1. What else can one expect from these buffoons? This thing called mukuni has got money from businesses he is a partner with his “god” hakaivotela humwine hazakanaka. So what’s more money that he should be paid from the Government he does not recognize? ***** of a cadre ar those 3 useless things called chiefs.

  2. Edgar and his pets are really petty.
    It’s not your money just pay the chiefs, yourself aren’t you getting a salary despite rigging. You were not even sworn by the chief justice. Atase

  3. You expect people to fast and pray on 18th bwana lungu the economy is already forcing us to fast.
    Prayers won’t govern this country alone we need action, does it mean Zambia is corruption free cause ever since lungu came into power no one has been convicted later on suspected or investigated except kambwili and HH.

  4. This is the Problem with Lungu’s govt. It has no integrity and its untrustworthy. They lie continuously and with impunity. They are a confused and chipante pante govt. They have no vision or direction. Lungu doesn’t know that money paid to Chiefs in allowances is not his Personal Money but Taxpayers money and Southern Province contributes the bulk of govt total revenue. Southern Province is an engine of growth to Zambia’s GDP. It is the home of Electricity Production,coal,Tourism,Transport gateway and is a bread basket of Zambia in food production. If the Lungu govt fails to pay allowances to Chiefs in Southern Province then Southern Province ahould withhold all Taxes to central govt. Lungu is playing a dangerous and divisive role. in all this. Where is,Justice, unity,forgiveness,…

  5. A better idea is to remove all chiefs from the government payroll. What exactly are they getting paid for? Chiefs have no job description, do not ascend to the position by qualification or merit but by birthright…so their quality cannot even be assured. On what basis is the same pay determined? Do they all get the same amount? Are we to use tax-payers money to pay for mediocrity?

    • Chiefs did not ask to be paid. It’s Chagwa who came up with that crazy idea all because he wanted to win an erection or sorry, election. This in itself is evidence of electoral malpractice which in civilized societies can lead to disqualification / annulment of elections and / or imprisonment! Yes, K15,000 bribe to every chief is uncalled for and only add to the burden on the treasury! Scrap it off!

    • @7 flag blabla
      I can’t agree with you more on this one.
      ECL if you have ears, kindly crap chiefs pay. Give them SCT maybe not pay.

      SCT a.k.a Social Cash Transfer is a one off and pretty manageable. You can’t pay chiefs for doing nothing. Please our beloved president, stop paying chiefs.

  6. Lungu is mistreating Southern Chiefs during the month of National Prayers .This man is a hypocrite,a Dictator and a Sadist. There cannot be forgiveness ,reconciliation and National Healing without confession and apologies.To love God is to love thy neighbour.Lungu cannot claim to be godly when he persecuted HH and 5 others for 127 days without a cause. Lungu should own up, confess and apologize for committing numerous injustices to the People of Zambia. Lungu stole their votes,money and committed numerous irregularities and illegalities during the disputed and Petitioned 2016 Elections. Charity begins at home and Lungu should confess and apologize for committing these Sins.Only then can Zambians re-unite, forgive,reconcile and begin the process of National Healing.

  7. These are political prayers let lungu and Christian’s for lungu pray and fast.
    We will pray to the same God we pray to when you incasrated HH and the same God when you corruptly award your friends contracts.
    Infact why don’t you combine your prayers with octoberfest.???

    • PF (Pathological Fools) who lie and steal day in day out and don’t have a clue as to where they are taking the country!

  8. They’ve never been part of govt going by the activities they perform. They sideline govt a finger which feeds them and why should they cry today about an allowance or is it a gift. That money they get means a lot in far as advancing govt programs is concerned but these cretins have chosen a social club in place of govt to officiate at their ceremonies. Tell the same social club to be paying you. Let that salary be paid to deserving chiefs who are read to assist govt usher in development for the people. You wizards.

  9. Just go and check at the ministry of finance. It’s like my brothers in Southern Province have adopted a Them against them attitude. Tribalism to them is only when a bemba person is involved.

  10. These chiefs don’t deserve to be paid. At least am now relieved that they don’t get allowances. For what? To bite the finger that feeds them. Lets be serious! Let HH pay them. Will congratulate the powers that be on this when I visit Zambia in December.

    • Just came back from church to pray for Zambia’s prosperity, peace and love under the well able leadership of HE ECL. May GOD bless all his pursuits, plans and purposes.

  11. MR. HANGOMBE KNOWS OFFICES CHARGED WITH PAYROLL RESPONSIBILITY AND ARE ONES TO SORT OUT THIS NOT THE MEDIA.
    I EXPECT MR.HANGOMBE TO INFORM THE NATION WHAT THESE CHIEFS ARE DOING IN THEIR CHIEFDOM’S TO IMPROVE THE LIVELIHOODS OF THEIR PEOPLE NOT THIS CHEAP PROPAGANDA.

    FOR THE SALARIES THAT’S THEIR ENTITLEMENT- RELEVANT AUTHORITIES WILL SEE IT THAT ARE GIVEN IN ARREARS

  12. But the’re other Chiefs in other provinces like one in Luapula who is five months not paid the subsidy but he knows he get in arears once the errors are rectified…What’s so special about these Chiefs mentioned in this article…It would have made sense if all the chiefs the Minister mentioned in Parliament where mentioned by the authors of this article…

  13. Malema please help us.We are have thick heads and cannot resolve the case our beloved 2 tonga chiefs.Remember how you helped HH.

  14. Chief Hamusonde’s Press Aid Joel Hang’omba of Monze must be consistent with his Chief’s re-known aggressive policy. Joel is expected to articulate his Chief’s hatred for PF Govt to an extent that his Chief has publicly exhibited his allegiance to HH at the exclusion of President ECL’s Govt.

    It is now clear that some Southern Province Chiefs regard their status as economic ventures. Mr. Hamududu and Major Chizyuka must probe the name of the Namwala Chief who displaced his subjects so as to enrich himself by selling large areas of grazing land to HH.

  15. This man did not pass comprehension and Can you Remember at school. The story he is arguing:
    ” Mr. Hang’omba says contrary to Chiefs and Traditional Affairs Minister Lawrence Sichalwe who told Parliament that no chief has been removed from government payroll without cause.”
    The underline is “without cause” but these two f.ools have been politicising too much and have recognised U5 as president. Let them get their pecks from U5.
    Pathetic!

  16. If this is true,then bravo to PF Govnt.these 3 tonga chiefs are not tradition leaders but die hard tribalists who are on a tribal crusade with HH’s upnd.
    Mukuni,Hamusonde and Mwanachingwala are pure upnd cadres paid by upnd.so why should upnd cadres be on Govnt payroll?NEVER!!
    HON.SICHALWE EVANS MUST ENSURE THAT THESE 3 “CUUNDU CHAITWA” LEADERS DO NOT RECEIVE ANY GOVNT MONEY AS LONG AS PF REMAINS IN POWER!!
    these 3 and HH have divided Zambia too much.look,before 2006,all Zambians were one.but the arrival of HH into our politics has divided Zambia badly.HH and his fellow tribesmen have been preaching tribalism especially in 3.5 provinces since 2006!!!BUT HH’S CHANCES OF BECOMING ZAMBIAN PRESIDENT HAVE BEEN DESTROYED BY HIS TRIBALISM!!SADLY EVEN TONGA CHIEFS DO NOT HELP HH AS THEY…

  17. Continue….
    SADLY EVEN TONGA CHIEFS DO NOT HELP HH AS THEY TOO PRACTICE TRIBALISM OPENLY!!anyway,its upnd’s problem!!
    As for most of us in 6.5 provinces,come 2021 ni PF nafuti nafuti!!

  18. BECAUSE CHIEFS ARE POLITICIANS NOW IGNITING AND FUELING TRIBALISM GIVES ME A MORE REASON TO VOTE WISELY IN THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS. THE MORE TRIBAL YOU APPLY YOUR GIMICS OR TRICKS THE MORE WE SHALL VOTE FOR AN INCLUSIVE AND WORKING GOVERNMENT FOR ALL ZAMBIANS. A FATHER THAT LOVES HIS CHILDREN CAN NEVER GO TO ASK FOREIGNERS TO SANCTION HIS OWN HOUSE/COUNTRY!!! SOME POLITICIANS IN ZAMBIA ARE SO SELF LOVING THAT AS A SOLUTION TO BECOME PRESIDENT THEY GO TO LIMITS OF TRYING TO PUNISH INNOCENT CITIZENS WITH SANCTIONS THAT COULD BRING POVERTY TO A NATION SO THAT PEOPLE COULD SUFFER AND THEN VOTE FOR THEM. WE KNOW WE ARE NOT FOOLS WE SEE WE HAVE BRAINS WE WATCH.

  19. This is why i keep on saying the reasoning of some tongas is difficult…The problem is that we easily forget, when some chiefs in southern province made hakalusa hagain gest of honour in some traditional ceremony and are full time taking part in politics. Why must government pay him! Traditional leaders are supposed to be non partisan so let the three foo.lish chiefs go to hakalusa hagain see if he can put them on a pay roll. The problem with our friends their love to start things (fights)even when they know that are not going to win.
