The ruling PF party says the defections of four of its former officials in Kasama, Northern Province to the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has no impact whatsoever.

PF National Youth Chairman Stephen Kampyongo says even if the quartet have defected, there will never be given those positions they had when in PF in the NDC

Mr. Kampyongo , who is also Home Affairs Minister , has described the defections of the quartet as ‘total indiscipline’ and disregard to PF.

ZANIS reports that Mr. Kampyongo who is also Home Affairs Minister urged the young people in the country not to be swayed by selfish politicians who have got nothing to offer.

“ Even if the quartet have left us and joined the opposition NDC, they are just nonentities. They are fore-gone and they will never hold back those positions. Our party is running on smoothly without their services,” Mr. Kampyongo said.

He said the defectors would live to regret and would soon re-join the ruling PF .

The Minister said PF is still remains an attractive political party to steer national development to benefit the majority Zambian people, especially the poor

Former PF Lukashya constituency chairlady Selestina Chitupa, Kasama district chairman Chitupa-Mwango, his district vice youth chairman Stephen Sichilongo and his youth treasurer Saviour Mpande last week defected to join the opposition NDC citing intolerance and uninspiring national leadership in the ruling party.

They defectors claimed that they have notified PF party President Edgar Lungu and Secretary General Davies Mwila in writing on their resignations.

The newly formed NDC political party is led by Secretary General Mwenya Musenga, who was Copperbelt minister.

    • Kampyongo says defectors were not factors but same mouth says they will not be given positions they had in PF. How did PF give positions to non-factors and nonentities? Kampyongo and PF are feeling the heat from a brand new party. If NDC and UPND play their cards well as united people, Mr Lungu and PF will cry like godfather RB did.

    • Send this character to school. What a disgrace he is! I may just as well change his name from Kampyongo to Kang’ombyo, an outmoded musical instrument, now obsolete.

  1. Isn’ t this guy a mwachusa from TZ or name defines a title they use when they are collecting ifishimu in the bush ?

    • He looks like one.He reminds of the Mwachusas in Mindolo in in the 1960s-ati mulefwaya ukufunya inkito,nkonde shandi nafunya na imbata shangi sili pay maegis, nakana tamwafunye inkito.

  2. Mr. Kampyongo: Now we know you look for positions not working for the people. Think of working for the people and not positions. Look at Ba Lubinda, Yaluma, Bishop Chomba, Mutati they don’t talk about other people. Full of wisdom.

  3. Ba Kapyongo it’s not indiscipline, its wisdom, ba minister Kapyongo you still think PF is doing fine? Who’s cheating you about PF popularity?….I don’t and I never like this from the word go.. i don’t get any sense out of him every time he speaks

  4. Whats the big deal ba Kampyongo? Just let them exercise their “democracy”, i.e. if Kambwili or even h.h know such a thing as democracy. Let them discover the hard way.
    By the way why are they not resigning from PF to join upndees? Could it be that they remember upndees calling them monkeys? Could it be that they know this is a party where qualification to president is your specific tribe?

  5. Two people looked into the sky at night and when asked what they had seen, one said the moon about to set and the other saw a shooting star. This is what it is about in politics. When you see signs of impending floods in the party you relocate to higher land, a party of your choice. What matters most is the numbers that join you which should be bigger than those leaving. Everyone would like to serve in that position where you can be visible, authoritative and certainly where you can earn good pecks. Ask Kambwili, Musenge , Sampa, GBM and this man who is clinging to Presidency, the ultimate in intelligence, HH. Ask them if they can want to serve as mere members of their political grouping.

  6. #10 Jay Jay, take our country back?? You mean to take the imaginary upndees ‘country’ back? Obviously you cannot mean our country Zambia because I and other Zambians dont know what you mean because Zambia has never gone anywhere even for one moment, ask our eight neigbours they have always seen their beloved neighbour Zambia where it has always been on the map.

  7. Continue burying your ignorant neck, won’t be long before you find you are the only one licking the master’s. Yeah everyone says, it is good riddance until they feel the fire burning. Watch the space, people are jumping out of a sinking boat. Sit still and sink with it. It is called trustworthy hahaha

  8. Ba Silent observer, listen.Hon.kampyos has never been a money changer at katondo street. NO! Please check your facts, dont mislead us.The man had always been hard working and trust worth.If you had said he was printer and contractor with a good number of workers under him, I would have I agreed with you. Get inspired ,get charged and work hard also opportunities are there in life for you. Hon. Kampyos is right to guide some defectors because NDC has nothing to offer .
