Ms. Kapata is reported to have said that “this is the time to eat if we do not eat now, when we are going to eat? Have you heard my colleagues?” when she addressed PF members at Nakatindi Hall.
In an interview, PF Mandevu constituency secretary Lemmy Bwalya said Ms Kapata meant that it was time to eat and enjoy the proceeds of good governance and steady leadership of President Lungu.
Mr Bwalya said Ms Kapata was pointing to the fact that the PF government had good plans to empower youths and women across Zambia through the available channels and avenues.
He reiterated that it wrong for some disgruntled individuals to twist the statement’s meaning when she meant that it was time to reap from what people cultivated by voting for the PF and President Lungu.
“I wish to remind the Mast newspaper and its funders that we will not slumber as Mandevu but we will defend our MP together with the President.
“Honourable Kapata’s statement at Nakatindi Hall didn’t reflect what the Mast has put it, instead she meant that it was time to eat and enjoy the proceeds of good governance and steady leadership of President Lungu,” said Mr Bwalya.
This Lemmy Bwalya thinks we’re all kids. Really laughable!
“…Lemmy Bwalya said Ms Kapata meant that it was time to eat and enjoy the proceeds of good governance and steady leadership of President Lungu.’
What on earth is this supposed to mean? Who on earth even has the guts to say such nonsense. If would have been understood if such a message was meant for PF cadres, but as it stands it was meant for all Zambians which in itself is an insult. Mama, please we need a signal on how to deal with PF.
NB. I am not UPND neither PF, I’m not partisan at all. I am a patriotic Zambian. Selah.
they will steal and eat but come 2021, mubalonga muma prisons bonse.
make sure you are eating and saving some madam Jean Kapata your time to face reality is fast approaching 2021..you are out of office and probably you will end up in Jail
“….she meant that it was time to eat and enjoy the proceeds of good governance and steady leadership of President Lungu,” said Mr Bwalya….”
What proceeds ? $17 billion debt ?
PF are made of street thugs and thieves , sata was right.
Where is that silly Religious Minister God-free to translate this folly
same as saying UBOMBA MWIBALA ALYA MWIBALA.
Ubomba mwibala? See the drift?
First it was the SG Mwila and now kapata. At least zambians now cannot claim that they didn’t know that PF were just in power to eat. They are just being told the truth. Hats off to PF for being the most truthful party.
President Lungu would be better off, if most of his MPs and ministers never spoke. Lady Mwanakatwe and Lubinda should be his spokes people. The rest are empty tins.
These PF chaps are really annoying me. They are getting into my nerves now. Just where do they get such stu.pid language of stealing. Their boss also used mwibala non-sense and eating from the boma coffers. They are just thieves and there is nothing to defend here.
Disaster1
From the look of things, Bemba language seems to be confusing when it comes to translations into English. That observed, leaders must refrain from using Bemba when delivering speeches. We shall all be on the same page if English is used as a mode for communication at these gatherings. Let’s try it. One Zambia One Nation.
What English? Very few people speak English in Zambia. The rest of you suffer a communication problem. Notice tha I said “…a communication….” and not “….from communication….”
brother Mumba at shani apo
Another PF vuvuzela trying to justify the unjustifiable.Muleikalafye.
When people are drunk with loot they cant resist bursting. This is what is happening to PF. The loot has become too much to bare. They will keep bursting. U ubomba mwibala – is time to eat. Hahahahaha stupid fellows
Looks like stealing is policy in PF. The statement only sweetens the ubomba mwibala alya mwibala by her boss. Usually, such statements are reflexive from what someone does, thinks often and plans to do most of the time. It does not build but damages the already damaged ECL and PFs reputation. It also vindicates all those who have openly call Zambia’s president a thief.
This is the Calibre of Gumu-gumu’s we have in Government now.
Next she will be promoted to Vice President, after Mama Inonge retires, & in her place the useless P.F will hire another useless visionless Cadre by the name of Mushota to take over from equally useless Kapata.
ONE THEN WONDERS WHY THE COUNTRY HAS TURNED INTO A NON DEVELOPING CHOLERA SEWER TANK/ CESSPIT??
But why did the minister have to use such a complicated statement which even the PF Mandevu official has failed to explain? Why didn’t she use simple words of development?
Politicians are the only liars who get away with everything even if Jim said that Jack will translate he meant this what a dirty game but not for so long..
This is a hot rod for PF cadres to defend. I really don’t understand how a normal thinking and mature person can fail to see why PF is in office. To steal and eat as they say. Lungu said it openly that Uuubomba mwibala… Now the woman comes up and says it openly that it’s time to eat. Eat what? Borrowed money that they steal day in and day out. How fooolish is the Zambian population that someone tells them we are eating on top of your heads, as you carry the load? Where’s the outrage? Is she eating the Mukula Tree? God, Zambians are stup1d. Why did you make them like this? They cannot even demand this woman to be fired. Kwati bonsefye fipuba. What a shame!
Oh please why do you always use terms that need explanation. We not kids to be explained to every time you mess up. You killing our party with your wrong statements. Shame on you for defending her.
Uyu kapata echo abipila napa menso, inchinso chabwaume kwati ni kamalasha yamu kabwe road.ichinso kwati ni mop, kwati chakutinishako abana abanono Ku Arthur Davison hospital.ichinso ububi.
Let’s ban political parties! Political parties only serve the selfish interests of a select few! You can’t blame Jean for her statement. Her Boss Mutawale decreed that Ubomba Mwibala MUST EAT Mwibala on condition that you don’t eat imbuto! Since that pronouncement, corruption is now done openly. Since Zambians balaitasha ati they are a Christian nation, be reminded that a thief is a thief. There is no such thing as a small sin. A big thief starts as a petty thief! The Character of those who steal a little is the same as those who steal much! (Luke 16:10). It takes discipline to develop a nation!
Imwe ba PF Mandevu official, what are you denying? The Minister has stated that she condones corruption, who are you to deny that?
It’s high time that leaders in PF desisted from issuing such utterances because they just expose their true identity as hypocrites.If you’re there to EAT and not serve the people who put you in office, keep it to yourself.We would rather appreciate you keeping quiet than yapping and babbling about your enigmatic statement which your people are defending you with.This is a trend for most politicians.They have the propensity or proclivity for saying something which is repulsive to people and try to circumvent and give oblique answers when questioned.Bomani lusambo is on record confessing that he’s a booty licker .Now it’s madam kapata saying with her new hash tag “it’s time to eat” Ask yourselves where is mr munkombwe?Zambians are watching and hearing everything you are saying.What…
