MMD leadership addressing members in Mpika
MMD leadership addressing members in Mpika

Movement for Multiparty Democracy-MMD national leadership which was in Muchinga Province for the mobilisation of the party structures completed its tour of duty on Friday, with a call to members to stop entertaining political parties whose agenda for the country is not clear.

The National Executive Committee members who were led by National Secretary of the party Raphael Nakacinda expressed gratitude that the leadership in the province had managed to hold the party together despite the challenges it went through in the run up to the convention.

And Nakacinda warned outspopoken National Democratic Congress(NDC) defacto leader Chishimba Kambwili to stop using MMD in his fight with the PF because it was not his party but his careless mouth which got him fired.

He said ever since the embattled Roan Law-marker was fired from Government, he has been insulting everyone including the Head of State whom he said is a symbol of the nation’s sovereignty.

He accused Dr Kambwili of playing double standards, saying when he served as Information Minister in the Patriotic Front(PF) regime, he was defending everything the government was doing, but after he was axed, he turned around and started denouncing government.

“Alefwaya ukulabomfwa ba MMD ukutuka ba PF. Awe, finshi twamuchita? Akalefye namafya yakwe . Eka pona panshi aka bomfye MMD ati achamusenda iyo, “loosely translated as( Kambwili has been using MMD to insult the PF. What have we done to him. Let me just be with his troubles and let him concentrate on his issues. Lest he collapses and accuse the MMD. Don’t pay attention to him,” the MMD Chief Executive Officer said.

He added “If he was an honest guy, he would have let go of the constituency but the reason why he is pretending is because he is a hypocrite, he is not telling the truth and MMD should not be hoodwinked by his insults.”

And Nakacinda continued his verbal onslaught of the UPND leadership which he accused of having a very dangerous tribal agenda.

He explained that the UPND is hell bent at putting a Tonga in power at the expense of national unity, saying division in the country will not be inevitable should they take over.

“Ba HH(Hakainde Hichilema) baiminina pafya mitundu tatufwile ukubasuminisha. Shilelanda ati aba Tonga babi ndimu Tonga ine but HH is not a right representative of Southern Province pantu alefwaya kutubifya ishina ati tulasalana, ine nshisala awe (Mr HH stands for tribal politics so we should not allow. I am not saying that Tongas are bad because I am Tonga myself but HH is not a good representative of Southern Province. He is destroying our tribe that we segregate As for me I am not segregative”

He explained that it will be difficult for Mr Hichilema to rule the country as it will be divided further on tribal lines.

Meanwhile the provincial leadership in the province said the tour of the province by the national leadership will reactivate all structures of the party in the province.

Christopher Katyetye said a number of party officials had become inactive because the national leadership had not visited the province since the convention but he had received overwhelming calls indicating that since the national leadership had provided the direction they will start mobilising in their areas.

He said MMD had left a record which is easy to sale and that he had no doubt that with support and direction from the national leadership the party will recapture its former glory in the province.

  1. You don’t know wht u talking abt, jst be still in a sank ship, a Zambian leader can come frm any part of this country, unless he comes frm the Eastern or Northern thn it not tribal? MMD is sold everything with yo sweet lies, u put Zambia pa mabwe ad PF is doing more of the same. Noluse na soni ta mwakwata. Better u shout up!!!! U dont need to be given any platform.

    • Raphael Nakacinda, why are you not proud to be a Tonga? Speak your Tonga, by clinging to speaking Bemba you show that you a clown or buffoon.
      I am Bemba, be proud of what you are. Stop promoting tribalism.

    • Thats what he meant by tongas being selfish. How do you address bembas in tonga and expect to win favours. Why would you address lozis in kaonde and expect favours from them. Under5s you’re indeed amazing

    • hahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahahhaahha
      MMD is now run by this guy?….lol. Wow, the mighty have fallen. I wonder who is going to be the PF Naka chinda when they are out like MMD. That last cadre fighting tooth and nail for PF. It will be probably Macky II….lol

    • In whose name was Nakachinda speaking? Does he dream MMD will resurrect? What sort of opposition who instead of opposing bad policies from sister thieving party PF but he is clapping for thieves and he wants everyone to believe their lovestory with PF. Nakachinda ulelyafye the left overs from PF table and stop insulting Kambwili for the sake of hiding your inefficience as a finished Party that was condemned to death by Zambians.

  2. We all know the HH agenda….
    A number of backward pipo think we can be hoodwinked into voting for the “quota system”.
    It will never happen.
    Let the UPND give us a nationalist in 2026 and not a bitter and unpatriotic tribalist.

    • I too agree, the day UPND have a convention and elect anyone but HH, we the people shall take them seriously . He has never even held a ward chairmanship.

    • Why are people so envious and jealous of HH? A successful businessman, family man with one wife and well mannered children and Christian. Is he not a role model for the Zambian male?

    • Does this man even know which party he’s in & it’s president…poverty is surely very unforgiving. Just take a look at all those innocent people surrounding & listening to the useless & shameless man. what has MMD got to offer which they couldn’t from 1991 to 2006 (15yrs). Zambians, please wakeup & stop entertaining such hopeless people.

    • Political parties in Zambia, unlike in other countries, are funded by individuals and their connections. You can have a political darling in lead position, but if he or she can’t magnetize money, the party dies.

      Look at all these small parties, they remain small because of the size of their bank account. They cannot build structures on promises. Foot soldiers want money. Dancing mothers want money. Everyone wants to be paid.

      In other countries your base, people, give you money to run a campaign. In Zambia it’s the reverse. Tilyenji has been leading UNIP since his father left office. Moneyless Tilyenji and UNIP is dead!

  3. Is better to keep quite rather than vomiting careless words, mmd is same like unip will not bounce back in power

  4. am Tonga myself but HH is not a good representative of Southern Province. He is destroying our tribe that we segregate As for me I am not segregative”

    AM ALSO A TONGA FROM CHIEF MWANACHINGWALA.. HH IS A MOST SHAMELESS TRIBALIST TONGA..

    • why are you busy talking ill about HH as if he is the one running the country affairs. instead of us lots of Zambians getting busy asking the ruling government questions why things are not going fine. Its either you selfish & do not care about many suffering people or you are serious sick up stairs.

    • I feel bad when I hear someone saying such things without facts. The truth is that our leaders all of them are tribal and they are using this tribal issue to gain political milage and destroy each other. I thank God that the Lord Almighty is with us as Zambians and protecting us all the time. Let us condemn all and it is not about being tonga. As a tonga please dont just support a tonga support what is right. For you even to point a finger at some1 means you have pointed a finger back at yourself. Please leave tribal issues alone EBH and bring facts as to why you dont support HH else we are all aware that our leaders have been using this issue and we should not use it too. Stop it

  5. This Nakachi what ever is promoting tribalism to attract attention but alas he is wasting his time. Why cant you tell the people what your useless mmd will do differently instead of talking about tribe this tribe that?

  6. Am not tonga. But this country belongs to all including hh. Nakachinda has chinda harder to justify his relevance, even if it means maligning his pipo. Has pf under sata/ lungu showed nakachinda what naked tribalism looks like? But to be accepted, nakachinda must sell his soul to the devil really?

  7. HaTribalism HaParty! No! When Hazaluza Hagain is done and his chronic reign is over GBM will be installed as the new president! (I want to believe). HaJayJay and HaSpaka, what do you think? The high ranking official will not do what they did to Sakwiba Sikota who thought it was automatic for him to become president after Mazoka’s demise! “No you can’t!” they told him! “Why can’t I?” he asked! “You are not Tonga! UPND is for Tongas!” he was clearly told! Nothing has changed or will change! ???

    • Sharon you are a tribalist yourself I guess else you cant say UPND is for tongas. Tonga is a tribe my dear and some of them are not even in that party. The one who we are talking about is tonga is he UPND? Answer that question? The answer is no so stop this tribal talk it is not for Zambia and believe me God will show you that Zambia is above tribe. He has already started breaking down the barriers that some of you have put up.

      We must know that in Zambia tribe is not our problem. Parties are led by individuals as opposed to South Africa where ANC is led by the people. Try to change a leader in any party try NAREP, FDD, UNIP, MMD, PF, UPND and you will see how you will be expellled. This is the problem in Zambia and we have to face it. It has nothing zero to do with tribe my…

  8. #1, PF was denounced in the South and when they formed government, you wanted them to come and look for people who were not committed to PF to be appointed in government? Who do you think leak government confidential papers? Those whose hearts are not committed to the leadership! The online bloggers who support UPND are destroying any chances of the rest of the people to support any candidate from the South! I wish we could have a person who grew up on the Copperbelt and has not been marred by thought-block of HaJayJay, HaSpaka and the rest of you! Such a person can stand a chance, otherwise keep dreaming!

    • @Sharon, and that’s what made Andrew Mazoka different. He grew up in the Copperbelt and did his Secondary School in Northern Province at Mungwi Technical Secondary School (if I am not mistaken). So you could see even his disposition towards people from other parts of Zambia (non tribe mates) was very inclusive and normal…. THAT’S WHAT EXPOSURE CAN DO TO PEOPLE….It changes the stereotypes and prejudices one has towards the “OTHER”, whatever that may be (color, tribe, gender, ethnicity, race, sexual orientation, nationality, extra.)

      So people get out of your tribal cocoons and get exposed. You will quickly learn that you are no different or better than anybody else, or the OTHER!

  9. This tribal tag is real haunting HH,better settle in chinsali and GBM in magoye maybe that way the one Zambia one nation would be at its best.

  10. ONLY A TONGA MUST LEAD UPND says Sejani. We all know the tribally selfish agenda of UPND and TONGAS- To deliver a TONGA(HH) to the state house. If HH goes to state house (GOD FORBID) the country will be more divided than ever before since HH himself ascended to UPND leadership through tribalism at the expense of NON TONGAS such as Sakwiba Sikota, Patrick Chisanga, Bob Sichinga and Given Lubinda. TONGAS genetically are tribal people, just look at the pattern of voting in southern province, they don’t go beyond their own and and look at the pattern of voting in other NON TONGA provinces, it was reasonable. we have seen their tribalism in Schools, offices, churches, neighborhoods and other social gatherings. I totally agree with Nakacinda, HH IS A TIKING TIME BOMB TO ZAMBIA’S PEACE AND…

  11. Fun comments. One would think a tonga is like a jew in samalia…and is being told he or she cannot share the same water with other Zambians. Too much segregation please. Let us stop it.

  12. Ichichinda nyina – What is wrong with this Ugly thing ichichina banyina? The fella looks like a wild pig!
    I wonder how any woman can be sleeping day in and day out next to this fat smelly pig with bad hygiene?
    Is a Tonga not Zambian enough to rule our country?
    I will personally deal with you to finish you off even before UPND goes into power!! Mother fcker!

  13. Its an Agenda that would haunt GBM if in an unfortunate event Kasaka pulled through. no one would recognize him including kasaka himself

  14. There is nothing wrong to have a Tonga in power! Tongas are Zambians. What is wrong is to have ones with a mindset of HaJayJay, HaSpaka, HaLombe, Hansengule, HaMusokotwane, (Not Kebby – I loved the man! He was my hero!)

  15. Well said Nakachinda!!!UPND has no agenda for Zambia but to simply put a tonga HH into state house.how will that develop mother Zambia,only their tribal minds know it!!
    Thank God many Zambian voters especially in 6.5 provinces know that HH is simply on tribal crusade,hence rejecting him for a record 5th times.in 2021 HH will have lost for a record 6th time and get retired!!HON.NG’AMBI SHOULD DO US A FAVOUR BY BRINGINING A BILL TO PARLIAMENT WHICH WILL PREVENT LOSERS FROM STANDING IN 2021!!retiring evil Kainde now could be splending thing for mother Zambia!!
    As for Kambwili,he is a useless chap with no political future!!

  16. Truth that’s not what nakachinda is saying. What he means is that you can’t seek presidency because oy your tribe. If you where old enough you will understand why mozoka (misrip) formed upnd. The main go was to installed someone from the southern region to count the northern region he managed to get three Bantu botatwe provinces. Data new these manavore to put a Tonga in state house when mozoka was in mmd. Remember he personally nalified the election of mazoka as Lusaka district mmd chairman. This was the main reason FTJ brought Mwanawasa to counter the threat and it worked as it devided the bantu botatwe because mwanawasa belonged to the same clan from both sides. When mazoka was called by maker the Tongas decided to installed a radical tribalist HH as they thought mozoka was not…

  17. Nakachinda…… You are suppose to sale your ideas to the nation as a mmd party. 2 can you provide checks and balances to this PF government.
    3- may you articulate issues that will benefit the people of Zambia .
    4- What is the clear line between MMD and PF because in my view I see the same people that the Zambians reject in 2011 are the same saving as ministers.
    5- What is the new manifesto of mmd?

  18. Him being a Tonga and speaking in bemba when addressing bemba speaking people then the man is not tribal .if anything he is against tribalism and must be respected

  19. But this guy he’s dull to the core why always wants trying paint tongas as tribalist just sale your manifestal

  20. HH is simply a tribal agent and agenda, .
    The question is what attracts our brothers and Sisters in southern, Western, and North Western to HH that which the other brothers and sisters in other provinces don’t know and can’t see,are the policies of the upnd only good to them .
    Please don’t condemn Nkachinda answer the question above.

  21. So Nakachinda didn’t know this? GBM was never at any time referred as Acting President when the rightful owner of Upnd was at State Lodge Mukobeko, Kabwe, Zambia

    • He knows that’s why he is taming as tribal.GBVM was nowhere near acting president of the moronic party.Sejani was the shadow acting president.

  22. Fun obatala these so-called qualities u r pointing that HH possess has nothing 2 do with changing people’s minds HH came on Upnd helm on tribal platform as he confessed himself clearly that Upnd must be ruled by Tonga’s what this has 2 do with being wealth man and one wife do u know everything he do in privacy stop dream l have a female colleague she showed me photos with HH and she was naked while feasting with HH.Tribalists shouldn’t be allowed 2 lead Zambia.

  23. I think it doesnt matter to have a Tonga, we have an Easterner who is busy messing up so its ok even if uyu wine umuTonga its ok !

  24. Yaba, once a upndeez comments on any topic they just spoil a good discussion. Keep it up Nakacinda, advise those morons who can’t see beyond their noses.

  25. Clearly, most of you are writing on impulse unable to see or connect the dots. The misnomer that Tongas have been selectively isolated from power is laughable at best. Tongas were the most powerful, influential political power group since before independence. Dr Kenneth Kaunda was PRESIDENT and yes, Kapwepwe,winas, Mundias et al had some say in govt, but none had more defining influence than Mark Chona , Mainzas younger brother.It was Mark who shephered Kaundas policies Which in effect were Mainzas agenda matters. Hon Mainza came across like a comedian loyal to KK but was the fly in State House. zambia would not have endured the imagnimonious crises of Kapwepwe s UPP , Mundias UP, umozi Ku mawas kamanga without Tongas dirty politics. Wake up! Read Up!

  26. HH is corrupt. HE stole money through privatization and behaves like an innocent chap as do all his cadres. Bring back the money from Paradise in Panama! It belongs to Zambians.

    • It is indeed comforting to know that my missing money is in Panama. Now i know i will be going to Paradise to collect! Hallelujia.

  27. He knows that’s why he is taming as tribal.GBVM was nowhere near acting president of the moronic party.Sejani was the shadow acting president.
