The opposition United Party for National Development (UPND) has said that it will file a motion in the constitutional court to reopen its presidential Petition.
UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema said that his party will file the motion because the Constitutional Court has also entertained Patriotic Front (PF) Secretary General Davies Mwila’s application to set aside or reverse its ruling on Ministers who served beyond the dissolution of parliament in 2016.
Mr. Hichilema said that he will instruct the UPND lawyers to reopen the election petition because the ConCourt has entertained an application by the PF Chief Executive Officer.
Chronic loser! Not a presidential material representing his clan! Let me run away before the online bully of a lazy bum polygamous father that bore a son who is a hooligan and bully of his tribal party comes! He projects it on the sane! Run!
He should find new lawyers, not those Petition failures. Get some Kalubales.
He’s simply making the concourt look foolish if it can fall back on one of its decisions and not on the other. Let’s be critical thinkers bane!
HH please move on….still talking about 2016 and we are almost halfway in 2018…move on try 2021
He has a democratic right
It doesn’t matter when commits murder be it in 1980’s in UK , they will still throw the book a you.
Let him do what he is entitled to.
I support him here
Thanks
BB2014,2016
That flat forehead says alot about HH Chinangwa
HH just instruct voters to vote for you in 2021 if at all you will be eligible to stand stop hallucinating about 2016
There’s a misunderstanding here. Courts have a duty to receive even a stupid application, listen to it and then deal with it appropriately by dismissing it. Love them or loathe them, ConCourt judges have not entertained Davies Mwilla’s application. He has merely filed it in the registry and they will give a date to hear it. Wait for the decision they will make before you damn them.
BRING IT ON IN A WHAT GOES AROUND, COMES BACK RIGHT AROUND IN YOUR FACE BWANA DOUBLE H. DUNUNA REVERSE WAS NOT JUST A SONG, IT WAS A CURSE ON YOU ALSO.

I guess with your schemes falling apart, the heat is becoming unbearable. Wiggle in the 2016 election loss as 2021draws nigh.Mr destructionist, your wishes won’t be granted. Cambridge Analytica will suck blood out’a nostrils before you endeavor to sink Mighty Zambia.
Write sense OK
Is H.H normal??? I now believe this man is confused. Thats the problem of loosing elections too much. How can a normal person be jumping from one court to another throughout?? Chintombwa just resign from politics coz you are not a politician in the first place. Just go back to Namwala & focus on rearing cattle
I am now beginning to think seriously that UPND is a mental disease!
But why is tribal talk against HH so cheered on with glee as exemplified by the thumbs-up? The reason is simple. This country has first class, second class and third class citizens based on the tribe you come from and Kaunda and his UNIP created that. Zambia is yet to undo that and it the biggest threat to nation-building.
Meaning, there’s more of a certain tribe on this side going by the thumbs up? Be realistic! Tribe doesn’t really play a part in elections except from a certain ethnic group that only votes for there fellows!
Something is very wrong here. You may need medical attention for sure. Madness is at play here.
Davies Mwila has gone back to the Constitutional Court on the same matter that the same court has dismissed twice but he never gets the tribally-tainted condemnation that HH is getting for merely making a suggestion. Why? It is because HH is a second class citizen in this country. This is the silent point here. A good author I once read argued that all societies have no-go areas that no one hardly talks about even if something is unjust. This is the no-go area of Zambian society. If you are treated as a second class citizen, you are entitled to fight the injustice and quite often this has divided once peaceful countries. As a preventive measure, tribal talk, or racist talk attracts sanctions as some racist woman was jailed in SA this month.
By the end of this year, someone will be Public Enemy Number One.
Badaala if I were you, I would devolt my energy on mobilising the part country wide to unseat the current government, than court case after court case, it won’t take your party anywhere. Learn from Sata, many times his votes were perceived stolen by the mmd but went back to the drawing board and redefined his stratage until people, got his message and voted for him overwhemly such that the margin was too much for mmd to manipulate if ever there is such manipulation. The margin of error should be convincing not tuma 0.2%. You are waisting too much time on courts, its time to tell the nation what you and upnd will do different from pf but as usual look at the insults that will follow after this gentle advise from ba some of them.
Zambia needs better opposition. kikikiki
Fair enough, HH. As the ConCourt does to one gander, so must it do the other goose.
But I am skeptical that UPND’s second attempt at justice will yield results given the structural biases, shameful actions and the recent 2016 history of the largely PF-leaning ConCourt. Like other observers, I argue, and urge, that the opposition should forget past offences or causes of conflict and be reconciled to the fact that ECL is president. He is organically through governance incompetence self-destructing.
It will be a waste of UPND/HH’s time, money and effort unless UPND’s intent is to keep afresh ECL’s fraudulent 2016 election memories and moves.If I were an opposition or UPND’s strategist, I would counsel the oppositon or HH to keep working hard for 2021. ECL will not be re-elected…
A HH afuntilathu!
The damage to the republic from PF and ECL’ vision-less governance and government is so colossal that even a Zambian eagle can easily win. The best time to re-contest or resurrect the case is after a new government is sworn in or in a post-ECL era with more patriotic legal minds in charge at the bench. The effort/case will then be largely for academic purposes and political mileage!
This is the end of once vibrant HH. What is left of him is Chipantepante/Ukusabaila/Tufilile munsenga. If I can’t rule Zambia no one should. Even the people who had trust in him are losing that trust. HH lacks patience especially that he was so close, almost 98% chances of becoming the next president after ECL but he has embarked on degrading himself to below 40% chances due to lack of self control and political maturity. No tactics.
True! Even those who hard faith in him are now seeing that the man is so desperate, thats why him and his party thrives on propaganda.
Im told that UPND means ” United Propaganda News Distributors”.
It a shame to have such leaders in Zambia.
HH, Pertion is supposed to be heard within two years, now it is after 2 years, are you OK? LOL!
Heard within 14 days not two years
This HH will kill people. Those who have wronged him would die when if he could become president.
From the time he came back from prison his thinking has changed. He has been crazy and resentful. Is this the Tonga thing or What? Just asking
This kind of behaviour by UPND/HH warrant a thorough medical examination for these leaders before they aspire for executive offices.
UPND must replace HH because he is surely mad now!!Mukobeko did a great damage to HH’s thinking capacity.the once wise man is now a chainama patient-kekekekekeke!!!
PAIPA PANO…..2016 PRESIDENTIAL PETITION BACK IN OUR COURTS AGAIN?plus is not HH who has been cheating his blind followers in upnd that the PETITION is still very active in our court?HH NEEDS VERY SERIOUS PRAYERS!!
This man has really destroyed his image.IN 2021 HH WILL TURN UPND INTO A TERROR GROUP AFTER LOSING BECAUSE OF HIS DESPERATION FOR STATE HOUSE!!!
We say “Kalusa,tangaikwele,a Lungu akwela kale….or dununa reverse..!!!!”
The problems I see in upnd and hh are , his lawyers /mp they know he has a lot of money as a result he’s advised wrongly , how come same pipo yo advisors , same pipo your lawyers , same pipo your mps and same tribe hmmmm Zambia’s let work up this guys are not good for as
HH had too much stolen money from privatization that he doesn’t care what happens to Zambians! His interest is to start chaos and run to Barhamas! I lost a lot of neighbours in Itawa, Ndola because they abruptly lost jobs due to the privatisation that was masterminded by Hichilema and his colleague Valentine Chitalu, who has since relocated to the UK, where he’s enjoying the stolen money! My former neighbours who were managers in UBZ, Zambia Railways, CH, Zambia Steel, Ndola Copper Refinery, Niec Stores, Zambia Airways etc, could not stand the sudden change in their lives, loss of marriages, breakdown of once vibrant families, because of crookedness of one Hichilema, now flashing billions of Kwacha which he stole! HH do whatever you can, you will remain perpetual loser because of curse…
HH never handled privatisation of CH, Zambia Railways, Niec Stores , Zambia Airways. The MMD govt which you freely voted for and cheered on did that. Zambia Railways was concessioned by Chiluba’s govt and Bonaventure Mutale was Attorney General at the time and he approved the concession agreement. He now acts for PF and is representing Davies Mwila in ConCourt. Ask him why they signed the concession. Niec Stores was not privatised, it failed after opening the country to SA competition. Ndola Copper Refinery was already abandoned by ZCCM itself and was not refining any copper. What else could have happened to it? I heard talk like that in UK blaming Maggie Thatcher for closing a coal pit where there was no more ore to mine.
I’m tired and therefore I will not say anything. He’s impeaching, he’s petitioning, he’s blocking eagle one. Can’t he concentrate on one solid thing? No wonder GBM is losing weight. The sight of so many foreign dignitaries calling on State House is disturbing him. Oh I forgot I said I wasn’t going to say anything.
COULD THIS BE A SPIRITUAL PROBLEM? MAYBE PASTORS FROM SDA SHOULD TAKE THIS MAN AND TRY TO SIT HIM DOWN. REASON WITH HIM FROM THE SCRIPTURES, PRAY FOR HIM. AT THIS RATE, THIS MAN CAN COMMIT SUICIDE. HE HAS TOLD HIS SUPPORTERS THAT THE PETITION CASE IS VERY ACTIVE IN COURT. SO WHAT ARE YOU TAKING BACK TO COURT IF THE CASE IS ALREADY ACTIVE IN COURT?
So there is actually no case at the moment in the courts. What then is this nonsense we hear from UPND about the elections petition still in court?
They will not answer you
THIS GUYS ARE JUST TIME WASTERS AND DISTRACTORS… ENEMIES OF DEVELOPMENT…
WE JUST HAVE TO FORGET ABOUT THIS NOISE MAKERS..
HE HAS JUST CONFIRMED THAT THERE IS NO ELECTIONS PERTITION BEFORE OUR COURTS….
Utu tumwa twapwa nomba!! Petition, dictatorship, rigging, courts, UN…CHIMBWI NO PLAN….
mapolo yako hh
CHILDREN THINKING AKA CHILDSH RANTS FROM FROM A LEADER OF A NAMED CULT, UPNDEAD. I REST MY CASE.
Sharon you have great hatred for Tongas, Lozis, and northwesterners. You can’t post any comment without a tribal tag. You are pathetic. I doubt if you are Zambian. Shame on you woman for hating tribes of your own country. By the way how old are you. It seems you are a child just the way you reason.
This HH has always been a fraud.
His tribespeople love his sickness.
Unfortunately,the 6.5 provinces are disgusted with his antics.
I can’t wait to see him in Petauke in 2021….the Nsenga pipo have a message
…Thoughts , Indeed From Dr CM. When jurisprudence of law comes in play …what really is it …simply put: a philosophy of law, or science of law … what are the connotations of the foregoing …does it take angles and twists ?… thoughts indeed from DR CM
Please let him petition for the reopening of his wounds. Who is he going to sure? Maybe ECZ only. But the winners will not be affected by the outcome because ECL and Mrs Win a are immune to court proceedings. But I wish to thank HH for informing his cadre on social media that the petition was long closed and what he has been saying was a lie. I’m sure it will help his cadre here to heal from the would inflicted in 2016. Thanks for being a man. I hope this will bring to an end the petition talk. HH has lived under denial for almost 2 year and I think it W’s not easy for him to announce that the petition was closed. Remember lusa was removed from the right to be head case by HH and his vice which rede red the matter baseless or academic. Let me mention here that the presidential al…
… what really is the philosophy of law : Perhaps the points of arguments are correct and seemingly right … Thoughts from DR CM
….what is the under tone of jurisprudence of law : in every decision made by a court officer? …indeed , among scholarly questions posed by forth right thinkers of law years back … thoughts by DR CM
…summary of all and truth be told ,is that ; there is , so much hate and hatred for one person … thoughts by Dr CM … country the beloved Zambia indeed the children of the future as the inheritors of our hate …
…why the hate ????????????????????????????????
The UPND lawyers should think twice before making themselves look like muppets by following the instructions of a clearly dilussional and paranoid HH.
Government has kept all the conditions that lead to the release of Mr Hakainde Hichilema but Mr Hichilema has not kept even a single condition. Has he realized that the impeachment ploy is not going to get him what he wants so now he thinks the only source of satisfaction is a petition?
HH has democratic right to appeal the case as many time as he can if he is not satisfied with three ruling. Again it is clear that HH has gathered more substantial evidence after the episode of Kambwili arrest. Its see kambwili has spilt more beens
What if Kambwili comes out and tell the world that we didn’t when the previous election. What are we going to do?
The same Kambwili who spread hate speech against Tongas during the election in question?
Kambwili is a very unstable unsafe and unreliable individual.
HH wont be the same after that incarceration at Mukobeko. By 2020 even kids will tell that some nuts up there were loose.
JUST PAY BACK THE MONEY YOU OWE CAMBRIDGE ANALYTICA. THEY WANT THEIR MONEY.
St Eugene open university in Solwezi is a center of sexual activities between lecturers and female students most of whom are married .the report is saddening in most angles.please investigate guest house in the area acts like slaughter house for married women.
God surely has ways of exposing evil intent in people. He first makes them go mad before unleashing the final punishment.
Remember how someone died. ..just following in the footsteps?
The under 5 boys running out of ideas now thinking that everything is possible to them Kikikikikikikikiki yaba Kaya
The problem with h.h and his upndeez is basic and simple. They believe that it is time for a tonga to rule but they do not have the guts to say it and campaign for it because it is a sensitive matter tgat wilk kill upndeez dead immediately. So they think that somehow it will happen, like through petitions, Janet Rogan, impeachment, boycott of parliament, Maimane, Commonwealth, Donald Trump, . The truth is that the only way to get tribal balancing is through the Constitution with agreement of all Zambians through dialogue. The only problem is that tribal balancing is different from “Tonga President” now which is what upndeez stands for and want to achieve through their selection H.h, who unfortunately has no viable and consistent message or strategy. Now I am not saying tongas are bad,…
…The truth is that the only way to get tribal balancing is through the Constitution with agreement of all Zambians through dialogue. The only problem is that tribal balancing is different from “Tonga President now” which is what upndeez stands for and want to achieve through their selection H.h, who unfortunately has no viable and consistent message or strategy. So what about othr tribes like Luvale, chookwe, mambwe etc? Forget the Lozis they seem to be quite happhy with tongas ruling them rather than bemba or nsenga. Now I am not saying tongas are bad, all I am saying is that the few bad tongas are all in upndeez and purport to represent the whole tonga tribe.
Your money is driving you mad please give it to the poor people who truly need it. Start acting like presidential candidate in the making now. Tired of your unending court cases.
…but looking at the last pattern of voting in tonga areas, it may be safe to assume that is true. Unless of course the voting was rigged by h.h which is a strong possibility given his belief in rigging. Or there was strong intimidation or the voters did not not know what they were. But RIGGING is the most likely possibility rather tribalism among tongas, the majority of whom are good people as far as I know from my friends and relatives.
Please some one wake me up and tell me that this is 2018 and that we still have rights as human beings to seek justice, in a country that is so corrupt, only a fool would deny justice to prevail. Stop insulting HH for exercising his human rights. After all it is for people like you who think a brown envelope is all it is to life, he is doing it for. He doesn’t need to be president to steal. He has everything you do not have.
HH is a joke of the century,His thinking capacity is questionable nowadays.This type of thinking tells a lot about him if he becomes president which i strongly doubt. He will also be corrupt,flying every week & googling to see where there’s a state function for him to fly out & abuse state machinery because the other party was doing it.In short HH is an enemy of Zambia’s development.In developed countries,there is time to do politics,campaigns & time to develop their nations by both ruling & opposition working together for a common cause of their Citizens.In our case we have bad,envious, bitter & life losers whose aim is to go to state house at an expense of stagnant development because of self belief of winning lost elections.
Now even Upnd members have been confused by this man. I can see they all have refrained from commenting.
Let him waste his time! I think age is catching up with him!
The Judicial Services Commission ruled that only 10 of the 14 days were used and that the ConCourt ended the 2016 Presidential Petition prematurely.We know there are typical dull Zambians who want to ignore that determination.
Even General Miyanda indicated that petition is technically still alive as the 14 day timeframe and jurisdiction also elapsed on the ConCourt(Final ruling was made the following Monday instead of Friday)
So HH and GBM will not be asking the ConCourt to reopen the petition but rather continue the hearing from were they prematurely stopped.
That leaves them with four days?
@Independent: THE CONSTITUTION OF ZAMBIA STATES THAT:
103 (4) A decision of the Constitutional Court under clause is final.
IN SHORT , IT IS NOT WHAT THE JUDICIAL SERVICE COMMISSION SAYS OR WHAT GEN. MIYANDA SAYS THAT MATTERS. PLEASE LETS FOLLOW WHAT THE CONSTITUTION SAYS.
hh could be suffering from mad cow disease
Let me explain concept of no-go areas of society even if evil is taking place. Children were abused in the Catholic Church but for a long time there was dead silence, women in the movie industry same thing but people were quiet. To understand how a society functions, wrote Gillian Tett, don’t just look at popular things everyone likes to talk about. Examine the social silences as well and then you understand what also is going on. Hope the point has been driven home. I also look at Zambia’s social silences apart from what excites everyone.
