Courts must expedite cases involving expelled Members of Parliament-Musukwa

Chishimba Kambwili flashes the NDC symbol

THE courts must expedite cases involving expelled Members of Parliament, a political commentator has charged.

Ntazana Musukwa’s sentiments comes following the current trend by some lawmakers to cling to the ruling party while propagating an opposition political party’s ideas.

Mr. Musukwa cited Roan Member of Parliament Chishimba Kambwili as a case in point of someone who is clinging to the PF seat while working with the NDC after rushing to court to challenge his expulsion.

He said the current situation was as a result of loopholes that were contained in the constitution.

“Chishimba Kambwili raises an NDC symbol, yet he claims to be PF. If he is still PF, why is he working with and supporting the NDC? It is improper, deceptive and unacceptable. Mr. Kambwili should be NDC and if he is NDC, why is he clinging to Roan constituency seat which he won under the PF ticket?

He called on relevant authorities to accelerate the disposal of cases involving expelled Members of Parliament as a way of sealing loopholes such as the one Mr. Kambwili was taking advantage of and abusing.

“If Kambwili had morals and dignity, he would resign from the Roan seat not only because the party he claims to be a member of, the PF, rejected him through expulsion, but also that he now affiliates openly with the NDC.

However, not all of us have morals and no wonder courts exist to ensure justice for all. Mr. Kambwili launched the NDC, raises the NDC symbol, NDC members call him their leader and he accepts, he speaks against the PF and its leadership and so on, so it goes without doubt that Kambwili is NDC.

“In this regard, his claim that he is still PF is invalid, a lie and an act of crookedness of the worst kind.

“Kambwili’s continued stay in the National Assembly on the PF ticket is therefore uncalled for, unjust, immoral and seeks to defeat democracy and justice,” he charged.

  1. KAMBWILI IS THE EPITOME OF:
    EATING WITH BOTH HANDS
    OR
    HAVING YOUR CAKE AND EATING IT
    HE IS ALSO AN ID.IOT AND BLABBER MOUTH
    HE USED TO GET CONTRACTS FROM THE CHINESE IN LUANSHYA AND GOT RICH BUT TODAY HE WANTS THEM TO BE LYCHED
    HE WAS A STAUNCH SUPPORTER OF PF AND LUNGU AND TODAY HE HAS CHANGED COLOURS
    HOW PATHETIC!!!!

  2. *****s like Chisukwa always keep a jaundiced view of things.
    Those cases can only be expedited after cases of dinasous Mwanakatwe and Nkandu Lou have been heard.
    First cases first – you cannot jump cases that began earlier and start hearing newer ones!

    • @ Joy and Zambia, it seems the country is dysfunctional as no arm of government is operational! One wonders what is really keeping the nation alive for it is like an intensive care unit with patients whose equipment is operating without a noticeable technician tending them!

  3. Who is this Musukwa? He sounds irrelevant the very first time he has spoken. Who is he to command honorable courts to act according to his will? Is he also a member of ba Koswe mwibala?

  4. STOP this nonsense to ask the courts to accelerate cases in court because we have TWO big cabinet ministers MWANAKATWE AND MR LUO they need to help PF realize our campaign promises for CK we dont care he can flush PF SYMBOL or NDC we meet him in 2021. We dont want to go for a by election in ROAN cos. public expenditure needs to be controlled hence elections ONLY in 2021

  5. Ba musukwa, you should also speed up the BY-Elections for Munali and Lusaka Central.
    Landu Luo and Mwanakatwe , should step down and clear way for new elections.

  6. It’s like our courts are not alive to happenings within our society, they operate from a distance. Ours is the most abused justice system and it seems court officials are happy with this awkwardly embarrassing situation. They are only quick at defending themselves. I still remember what Chilekwa Mwamba said about some lawyers and charges in the matter involving the sale of Masiye Motels. He was locked up together with his lawyer

  7. Hon. Mutati is MMD but working in pf govt. Is there anything wrong? The same goes for Dora Siliya and indeed many others. If its okay for these, why shouldn’t it be okay for CK to be p.f and still support NDC or any other party! Check yourself Musukwa.

    • Nickdimms,
      Firstly, the MMD as a party agreed to work with PF and Mutati has their full blessing which is not the case with your Mbwili.

      Secondly those you call MMD like Dora, Vincent Mwale, are fully PF and were voted in as PF MPs even though they were previously MMD.
      Just like GBM who was PF but would have been Veep under UPND if the Zambian people had gone to sleep.

      So I think it’s you who should check your Opinions. I almost called them Facts…

  8. Then we can see how you will challenge the leadership of God in heaven. Waiting to hear you accuse God of not being elected. Joke? No, upndeez are serious people.

  9. ba Musukwa iyo kwena muli masuku.U need to be eatern nowonder Lungu never appointed you a minister in the maize field.I think u can’t even be allowed in the pot.What is PF doing about Nkadu luo and Mwanakatwe.Let imbwili imipwishe.We told u not to fire Kambwili but u thought yo president is popular.nomba lelo lelo.What we can tell u is that Kambwili is liked bcoz he behaves like the Late Sata.the late Sata was liked in bemba speaking people and Kambwili commands the same following.No bemba in bemba speaking provinces is liked like kambwili.watch the space.Ba Mutati,kampyo,Dr.Chilufya,GMB etc can’t be liked like Kambwili in most dominated bemba speaking people.u’ll tell me

  10. Cont.Kambwili is not even campaigning but the people who love Sata are doing it for Kambwili.Structures of NDC are everywhere in PF strongholds.Kambwili doesn’t even know who is spreading the news of PF.Sata was indeed loved.Lungu was voted into office bcoz we were told Sata wanted him but now he has showed true colours and people especially in CB,luapula,muchinaga,northern,lusaka and parts of central don’t like him bcoz he has let pipo who insulted Sata to be in for front to speak for PF.can sunday chanda,siulwapwa speak on behalf of PF?such chaps lebeled Sata illiterate .so shameful

  11. What about Siulapwa and Chishimba who are presidents of parties speaking on behalf of PF? Not to mention one Danny Pule!

  12. Why the hell do people waste time on political no-hopers like Kambwili.? That is a finished man who knows nothing but to draw attention by turning against his gang of thieves…!

    • Mmmmmmm…. Ba Gugu… Are you sure Imbwili is a no hopper?? CK has potential to make poor Zambians and the middle class happy, just like our beloved late President MC Sata.

  13. Some thinking are dangerous mwee, someone is talking of MP who have been expelled from their party not cases that have been nullified. Let’s get things straight here. CK is drawing an allowance on a party he keeps insulting. Let the debate be in those lines.

  14. What has happened about ministers paying back as ordered by the Constitutional Court? Is there anyone left to uphold the constitution?

  15. Brigadier General Miyanda, where are you kanshi?? These civilian politicians are busy killing this nation with empty talk… Can you rescue this nation please?? CK, HH, ECL, all these characters for me don’t make sense. We need a real man to run for office of President not these cheap boastful thieves who have robbed the nation of its wealth. We need this nonsense to end. We need to stop nonenrities like this Musukwa who closes one eye on Luo and Mwanakatwe and opens the other on CK… Cheap politicking!!
