President Lungu, Miles Sampa and Bowman Lusambo at the Day of National Prayers Event

I irrevocably endorse President Edgar Lungu as the Patriotic Front (PF) presidential candidate for the 2020 PF convention, former PF Matero constituency Member of Parliament, Miles Sampa has said.

And Mr Sampa has pledged 100 percent loyalty to President Lungu, both as the President and his elder brother.

He that he had already started campaigning for President Lungu as he had endorsed him as the sole candidate for the 2021 general elections.

Mr Sampa said that he was looking forward to joining his colleagues in the PF in tirelessly selling the ‘ECL’ and PF brand.

He reiterated that party mobilisation was something he enjoyed and looked forward to be back amongst peers and play his bit in growing the party.

This is according to a posting on the PF official Facebook page.

Mr Sampa pointed out that he would help mobilise the party to ensure that ECL PF 2020 was smoothly realised in accordance with the PF Central Committee resolution.

“I am grateful to the President, Vice President, SG and deputy SG and the Central Committee. The new Miles Sampa has 100% loyalty to President Edgar Chagwa Lungu both as President and as elder brother. “To that effect I wish to state that for the 2020 PF convention, I irrevocably endorse President Lungu as the PF President.”

“My campaign for him has already started. I will join my colleagues the SG, deputy SG and likes of Minister Kampyongo and Minister Chitotela in tirelessly selling the ECL and PF brand,” he said.

Meanwhile, Mr Sampa, who is former deputy minister of Commerce, Trade and Industry under PF, said that he was looking forward to the day when he would be welcomed back to the PF because he missed being a part on them.

He reiterated that he had changed for the better after realising his mistakes and that he was no longer interested in being the Republican President.

    • Hmmmm interesting what has made him to talk like thus now? Maybe something is wrong with UPND that’s why he has waited so long to get back in to PF

    • the chap had and still has nothing to offer to the well being zambians,thats the problem with politicians once the taste the proceeds of crime.they rarely quit politics.

    • Miles ‘official PF president’ its too early to start making announcements,,,, when you wake you wash your face first,then greet people before you say anything,,, that’s respectful Bembas do!!!!

    • Sometimes I fail to understand lungu! Just look at that picture, look at lungu! Is it humbleness, dizzy, umuchishi or flying syndrome why he is sitting that way,,,,,,,difficult to tell

    • You Tongas, you were praising him when he added a vote to you party now you are busy insulting him for withdrawing his vote. Wait for GBM to give you a knock out punch when he does the same. Nevers Mumba ali kwi?

    • That is what happens when you are no longer putting your hands in the trough and hunger afflicts you .You end up supporting anything.

  1. What a country! what a people!
    Sometimes l think that the causes of most problems in the world can be attributed to two groups of people politicians and religious leaders!
    To think miles wanted to lead this country withbthis kind of thinking is worrying. Little wonder sata never appointed him cabinet minister.

  2. Ba lusaka times wrong title it should read like this!
    “Miles Sampa endorses corruption racketeering and aimless movements.”
    A sampa ndimwe a zombie ninshi.

  3. We want to respect the decision of former Matero Member of Parliament and Deputy Minister as his uncle gave him a post and later ECL who felt he owed it to MC to keep some of his relatives in government, we wonder whether he really reads the times. ECL is on record that he will leave in 2021 so what is kilometer endorsing? We know how you are struggling to buy fuel in your cars and how its become difficult to manage the hoard of blessees you managed back then, even though you yearned to be a full minister. We know you have hit hard times and now you are rent seeking. Just do the needful sale some of the family furniture before you debt swallows you

    • NJALA NIYOYIPA BABA.KK when leaving office said africa is not ready for democracy.I think he meant democracy cant thrive in poverty.But wait a minute.Was America rich when the people of that great country came up with a constitution that has stood the test of time?Or am i digressing?What is the difference then? Or i see it is the colour of our stupid skin.

    • Sampa is likened to having a 10 foot African reticulated python as a pet in your home….the snake never stops to take measurements of your body and strength.

    • Totally agree. This shows the status of Zambian Politics…..SHAME !!!
      Wasnt this guy just “planted” in UPND by PF so he could spy on HH & GBM? Check out the speed at which he has been taken back to PF.
      I thought after elections ECL was saying at minimal it will take 3 years before one is accepted back to PF?

  4. I am glad he has realised he was acting like an Under Five. I wish all Under Fives could repent. HaJayJay very disgusting!

  5. The most useless and hungry politician.Going back to vomits because of hunger.HH he is man. Even drunkard lungu cant manage to run an opposition party from his pockets.

  6. HH Hashala Heka hagain. All the old influential and poltical heavyweights are back in the boat on lake Bangweulu.
    Smell of coffee is too good. Why suffer with kachema?

  7. For those who thought Sampa was a leader, you now have your answer. The chap is an opportunist. How do you endorse someone for Party President when the Constitution in its present form does not allow him to stand as Republican President? Are these early indications of the PF underworld schemes to change the constitution or to intimidate the Concourt Judges? The constitution is very clear on this matter! We will watch this space carefully so that we do what we did to Chiluba!

  8. That’s why I like Kambwili. Kambwili with all his weaknesses has direction. I am actually thinking of voting for Kambwili should he stand as president on a different party. Miles Sampa thinks he can possibly be allowed to stand as president in 2026. Mr. Sampa, let me tell you something about tyrants like ECL. After 2021, if ECL will be successful in continuing as president, his preoccupation will be to change the constitution so that it can allow him to stand as president for life (like Mugabe). I hope you will continue endorsing him as you’ve just done. That’s why ECL hates ambitious people like Kambwili. He wants to be president for life. So Mr. Sampa, if this is about eating with him (kapena njala ya kunyokola), then that’s ok. but if this is about you becoming the next president,…

  9. Ba Guy aba baalilubana.Doesn’t he know that Lungu does not qualify to stand in 2021?Is he bootlicker number 2,next to Bowman Lusambo?

  10. He misses government contracts and working tirelessly to misuse tax payers money. Sweet sweet contracts and the intoxicating warmth of power.

  11. Surely, Njala siipasa ulemu. If I may recall how this boy behaved after the PF convention in Kabwe? The way he insulted ECL. Ati how do you select a Presidential Candidate by way raising hands? Kwati mashilu???? Now today the same month is talking the opposite.

  12. This ***** has no direction, purely failed corrupt dull politician, miles i had respect for you but no more now. miles ulicipuba saana *****

  13. It is not about tribes you idioots, always thinking Tonga/Bemba! Are these the only tribes in Zambia?

    Tired of your matuvi tribal rantings all the time, you bloggers!

    Miles is hungry and he wants to side with the thieves.

  14. Ba Miles mulekwatako insoni! Be very sincere about the motive of endorsing Lungu. It seems there is something hidden under your carpet which shall certainly be revealed soon. But by and large,I have stopped admiring your way of reasoning.
