There is no evidence that the PF leadership is involved in corruption, says Patriotic Front deputy media director Antonio Mwanza.
And Mwanza says the former foreign affairs minister Harry Kalaba and the NDC leader Chishimba kambwili’s allegations that the PF is corrupt show that the two are still weeping after loosing their ministerial jobs.
Speaking when he featured on Hot FM’s ‘Talk On Monday’, Mwanza said there was no evidence that the ruling party was corrupt as the opposition was alleging.
“If you look at the issue of corruption, we have had this problem of corruption since independence. Corruption is a societal problem, corruption is all over the world. We have heard a lot of people that have said ‘no PF is corrupt, this one is corrupt’, we have challenged them [that] can you bring the evidence. We know and understand that the opposition in this country have nothing to sell. The only thing they can do is to talk about corruption because they think [that] by talking about corruption then somehow the people of Zambia will have a perception that the PF is a corrupt political party,” Mwanza said.
“But we are not blind, people are not blind. The reports of corruption are public, the Auditor General’s report is a public document, the Public Accounts Committee report is a public document, the Financial Intelligence report is a public document. All these documents are public and there is nowhere where the PF leadership is involved in corruption, nowhere. I can challenge anyone to produce that evidence, they will never produce it.”
And Mwanza said Kalaba and Kambwili’s corruption allegations against the ruling party showed that the two were still weeping after loosing their ministerial positions.
“Harry Kalaba and honourable Kambwili, I would like to say those are weeping, it’s a funeral. Those two will keep on crying, leave them. Do you know that loosing a job is a big thing? You where once a minister and you were fired? So those are crying. When they are tired of crying we will wipe their tears. We will just give them more tissue to wipe their tears,” said Mwanza.
Sunday Chanda-Attacking Midfielder, Antonio Mwanza-Left Winger, Davis Mwila-Defensive Kingpin and Captain, Dora Siliya-Striker…yayayayaya….opposition, no bwino bwino..
Politics can make really make you a shameless person. It’s actually one of the qualifications. To be completely shameless with a touch of ignorance like Antonio Mwanza. But I can’t blame him, man must eat to survive.
Just play his clips from not too long ago
THE BOY IS RIGHT ON EVIDENCE. THE CORRUPTION ALLEGATIONS MUST BE BACKED UP BY DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE. I THOUGHT WHILE ABENA KAMBWILI WERE STILL IN GOVERNMENT THEY HAD COLLECTED A LOT OF DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE AND THEREFORE, WHEN HE STARTED THIS, CORRUPTION ALLEGATION, THING I WAS VERY OPTIMISTIC THAT KAMBWILI OBVIOUSLY WILL AVAIL A LOT OF GENUINE DOCUMENTAR EVIDENCE TO CATCH THE THIEVES. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED THAT THE CHAP JUST BARKS WITHOUT PRODUCING THAT EVIDENCE. SO, I AM COMPELLED TO CONCLUDE THAT BALEIBA BONSE AND AVAILING EVIDENCE WILL IMPLICATE THEM.
What we require is not evidence, we need them jailed!
This is what Antonio Mwaza said about the PF in the 27 June 2017 edition of the Mast:
“This (PF) government cannot account for the huge debt that they have accrued since coming into office in 2011. It is clear that the bulk of the debt money has been squandered through corruption, over-pricing of projects, embezzlement, misapplication of funds and sheer incompetence on the part of the State to effectively and efficiently apply national resources to the productive sectors of our economy in order to spur growth and reduce the high poverty levels, destitution and squalor among our people”
Kalaba was not ‘fired’.
The revolution is starting its a matter of time PF will be kicked out of power due to corruption. What more evidence do you need? The auditors report is there in black and white for everyone to see. Also kak0swe confirmed that his ministers are corrupt and the audio is there for everyone to see. Mukose time is catching up
I don’t blame your ignorance Antonio Mwanza, poverty is a very bad thing, I guess very few can refuse an offer you were given by PF in exchange to barking senseless things on a daily basis, it’s poverty and it’s real and in Zambia it’s worse, but one day Ko.swe will surely be held accountable to all these things he’s doing, it’s only that Zambian politicians never learn, I rest my case

Ati revolution….kwekwekwekwekwe…uli shilu???
Our deputy PM here is on hot seat due to corruption allegations but the opposition haven’t made an issue out of it. They know they can’t win public confidence by starting to screem. Yes kalaba was not fired but he going to be fired during e recent shake up
To say there is no evidence of corruption is like Kambwili saying there is no evidence he is overweight because of not stepping on a scale.
What ever Mwanza , you are a big fool who is a hired gun and that no level of foolish political propaganda will wipe away the current corruption activities in Government , as long as the so called leaders start defending , but learn from Zuma , is now alone and pending prison. So what we are saying is that soon or later we shall catch up with all criminals starting with RB and we know what is happening and time is coming when all evidence shall be brought and the same dead ACC and Police shall work . Take this as a warning to Mwanza and all with you . Why talk about if there is now corruption foolish people you are .
He is a fool
The evidence is you. Any sane person becomes something else when part of the pathetic failure(PF). Even failing they fail. GBM now has a degree and his thinking has changed since he jumped out of the boat.

Only Kambwili is weeping and bitter after being fired .As for Harry Kalabs has an ambition and his eyes are set on plot one.just creating a base for his party party formation and campaign .All politician are the same .power hungry and guilty of lies and deception ……
Kalaba knew he was going to be fired, and quickly resigned to save face. He was up for dismissal.
Antonio Antonio Antonio, you are a very brilliant young man.Why are you lowering yourself to that level?
Antonio if you do not have anything sensible to say better you keep quiet. Silence is golden
The evidence is plenty:maizegate,Firetendergate,ambulancegate,roadgate,Mukulagate, NRDCgate etc. Lungu’s own networth confirms theft becoz his annual earnings are far less the assets acquired.
BUT LIFE IS REAL GOOD[ LG]. THIS IS THE SAME MWANZA WHO ONE TIME PARADED THE CORRUPTION THAT IS WITHIN PF. NOW HE CAN STAND UP AND SAY , PF IS A CLEAN PARTY. LOOK AT WHAT HUNGER CAN DO TO A PERSON
Antonio you are a disappointment.
Wasted sperms
What a waste…
Antonio Mwanza,yesteryears you accused SPF to be corrupt but you changed and now defending apf because they have opened the door for to enter freely and work mwibala and eat freely.Double standards SNF unprincipled-shamful indeed. CK is not bitter.If people follow ecl attitude towards CK right from the succession rangles had been very hateful and bad.He appointed CK st the late hour and this was repeated after 2016 elections So Antonio must be honest in speeches and very soon Sunday Chandra will be kicked out by Antonio Mwansa oh sorry Mwanza
I used to love this guy, sad state of affairs!
Antonio is a seasoned politician from the opposition now joined the PF. He must have done enough research for him to make up his mind to associate with the PF. Why he did not choose to join any of the rest is, and can only be that the PF came out the better of them all despite that they are humans and bound to get lost once in a while and are capable of finding their campus sooner than later. The listening Government.
Not meant to insult anyone but putting myself in the shoes of Antonio. Sorry if it hurts.
ANTONIA, WHEN YOU WERE IN FDD I ADMIRED YOUR BRAVERY AND INTELLIGENCE. NOW ALL I SEE IS A HUNGRY PERSON LOOKING FOR POSITION AND QUICK MONEY. WAS IT NOT YOU WHO MADE A LOT OF NOISE ON THE FIRE ENGINES? YOU ARE A SPINELESS LITTLE WIMP WITH NO BACKBONE AND A JUDAS ISCARIOT. THIRTY PIECES OF SILVER THAT WILL SOON LEAVE YOUR MOUTH WITH A BITTER TASTE. SHAME ON YOU YOUNG MAN THAT IS PROTECTING A PARTY THAT IS MAKING THE POOR EVEN POORER JUST TO SATISFY YOUR OWN NEEDS BUT YOUR CHILDREN WILL FEEL THE PINCH OF YOUR TREACHERY TOGETHER WITH ALL OF US.
Zambian citizen you are right and the ball is corruption.
Ba Antonya Mwanya …what have they given you also that has sutured your mouth and thinking overnight?
Antonio has sold out cheap- if you are going to leave FDD, either you become a minister or head a large parastatal. What a shame. Deputy to Sunday Chanda? What a shame.
Eish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mwanza should have been an opiate of corruption vibe in PF. He should go on a pleading plea to the masses. Ask us to forgive his newfound friends for the deeds, he found and chart way forward. To say, there is no evidence of corruption. when yesterday, he pointed on 42 fire trucks, Lusaka – Copperbelt Dual carriage. Overnight wealth of K23billion without owning a bussiness. the list is endless. Welcome Mwibala baMwanza. Stop annoying.
Well stated Mr. Mwanza that corruption is a world-wide problem. Then how come in all the world, only PF is squeaky clean? You know yourself that buying a fire tender at USD1m each, an ambulance at USD280,00 each, building 321km at USD1.2b are all acts of naked corruption. No matter how they are explained it will not wash. Why do you not do other useful things, other than these nonsense you are now specialising in?
HH tell truth the deputy pm Barnaby joyce is in trouble NOT for corruption but because he got his IT advisor pregnsnt and left his wife of 24 years, his problem is the same as yours oval head nd the pf government,
Its callled CREDIBILITY
there is evidence that the guy who has money in Panama store it via inside trading.
This Antonio Mwanza is an ***** indeed afilwa ukushipikisha and due to poverty insala ekukuka nokuya Ku PF atampanoku bwatabwata yet he has been in the forefront during the time he was in opposition FDD. It clearly shows he is an opportunist who also has nothing to offer despite joining the PF party full of thieves
If the president himself said his minister were corrupt who is Antonio to seek for evidence? He has already been blinded by the gifts he has received. Shame
Antonio Mwanza is a shameful leader
