Opposition leader Hakainde Hichilema and NAREP President Elias Chipimo yesterday held private talks in Lusaka.

The talks were held at Mr Hichilema’s New Kasama residence after Mr Chipimo paid a courtesy call on him.

Mr Chipimo and Mr Hichilema confirmed that the duo discussed various issues affecting the nation.

There is a growing sense of urgency among some sections of the Zambian society for opposition parties to reorganize themselves and form a formidable alternative to the ruling PF, as despondency grows.

    • Please remind HH that there’s only one way of becoming President of Zambia and thats being elected by the people of Zambia. HH thinks he is a Parallel President…”holding talks”…what talks and for what purpose…????? Elias Chipimo also has lost direction

    • And people should remind Chipimo that whoever deals with HH ends up becoming irrelevant on the Zambian Political scene…Scott,Maureen,Mulenga,GBM,Sampa, Nawakwi,Kambwili and now Chipimo….GBM is now busy trying to explain his sudden weight loss and he looks miserable and haggard.The only reason Edgar will be elected again in 2021 is because of clueless and good for nothing opposition.

  1. Two self interested players with only their political harvests in mind. Clean water ,roads ,better schools ,job creation and healthcare is what we wanna hear till 2021 and NOT about “forming a formidable alternative to PF”

    • @ Mzambia wa Zamani

      And how you expect to get your priorities like “…Clean water ,roads ,better schools ,job creation and healthcare…”, never mind end of institutional corruption, nepotism, collapse of judiciary, police brutality …., if there is no “…forming a formidable alternative to PF…”?

      Use brain to think and not as counterweight to large arse

    • GBM, Dr. Mumba, Kambwili and now Chipimo, does one really need help from all these bembas to succeed? Only analytical minds will see what is happening here and what will happen in future. In the meantime let’s enjoy the show.

    • In the first picture HH seems not to be happy with the statement about forming a formidable alternative to the ruling PF. It indirectly implies that UPND alone is no match for the PF and needs an alliance with other parties, which unfortunately do not make an impact on the political arena. HH seems to be telling Chipimo, “Boyi, even if we go into an opposition alliance, imwe tamwakwata following, so what difference does it make. I’m better of with my UPND without you. After all my party comes second to PF’s might. “Awe boyi, ikalafye, ine nakana.”

  2. This is all HH is good at, truth be told, showing off how big his house is.
    When it comes to elections he behaves like African soccer teams in Russia.
    This is not news, more so if they can share what they talked about.

  3. Whichever way one looks at it, it is always good that opposition political party leaders are able to meet together and look for possibilities on finding common ground on issues affecting the governance of our country. There is nothing wrong with Elias meeting HH at his New Kasama residence.

    • But Chipimo is not Tonga so whatever he talked about with HH, was later dismissed from HH’s Tonga advisers. It is a waste of time talking to someone whose real ideals were decided in Choma years back.

    • Ndanje Khakis: Show HH how to take the house to his grave and he will. And show the way by taking your own house to your grave.

  4. tactics of HH! is doing all that because he is afraid of being removed as UPND president. He will do everything in order to stay in power even if UPND keeps is losing.

    HH is ruthless!

    • This HH must be a thorn in people’s flesh. Did you know that in football all that bothers the defenders is a brilliant striker?
      That is why, even if you went to South Africa today and produced your passport, you will hear immigration officers exclaim; ‘ooh, Kalusha Bwalya?’.
      That alone tells a story. Anyway, if this generation can not study to understand but be on the lookout for “leakage” what analysis do you expect from them?
      Kuselelafye ukwalola umwela.

  5. The heading should have been,”Under 5 – five times loser & Under 1 (1 time loser) hold talks”.

  6. 1000 ways to finish yourself politically

    He worked with Nawakwi. Dipark. Maureen mwanawasa. Muvi tv. Miles. Mulenga sata. Membes post. Guy scot. Gbm. Milupi.
    Pilato

    All the above are finished. This youngman chipima will just be used to stand as vice now that gbm is tired.

    The man is now in ICU

  7. HH mis-calculated big time. GBM has NOT had any impact in the Bembaland. He was rejected by his own people in his backyard. He was too pompous to the point of asking his daughter to stand and use the father’s name, this after years of boasting that he owned Kasama. ”

    Nevers Mumba too did NOT add any value to UPND. Miles was a waste space, who is desperate to start again in PF.

    HH is desperate to be seen to get something from Chipimo. But it will yield nothing. Chipimo is still a lightweight who has thrown his political gloves.

    Simply put it…
    HH wants to show his followers that he is still a force. When surely he has become a WEAKER OPPOSITION leader, who has reached his EXPIRY DATE. He has NO FIRE. He is FAILING to HIT Lungu because he does not think like a politician,…

    • Cont…

      Hence HH misses OPPORTUNITIES every single day to put PF to task.

      Why ? because he is TOO ANGRY that Lungu is Presido. And fails to see where UPND can be affecting.

      HH has not given total freedom to his MP’S. These guys were voted to represent constituencies. But he controls them. They are certain things in parliament that do NOT need any MP to be partisan. Things that are so straight forward to do for the people.

      But it appears, these MP’s have to consult HH on every tiny principal…. which has resulted into UNNECESSARY BOYCOTTS

      Right now HH is like a monkey swinging from one tree to the next tree. Time is up. His sponsorship from abroad is drying up.

    • Cont…

      Last not least. He is ( or ) has been portraying himself like a POLITICAL PROSTITUTE. He has tried to merge with every political figure in the past. Name them…..

      1.RB
      2.NAWIKWI
      3. CHARLES MILUPI
      4. SATA
      5. NEVERS MUMBA
      6.CHIPOMA
      7. MILES SAMPA
      8. KAMBWILI CHISHIMBA
      9. GUY SCOTT
      10. THE LIST WILL KEEP GOING UP ******** WHO KNOWS

      The above shows that HH a CHANCER. He is NOT CONFIDENT TO PULL IT ALONE. Therefore, he keeps swinging from tree to the next tree like a MONKEY.

      Even FRED MMEMBE has realised that I CANNOT get HH into State House. Therefore, MMEMBE has opted to do it alone.

    • To my brothers and sisters in UPND.

      There comes a time when even if you LOVE YOUR WIFE or HUSBAND too much. But if he is failing you. You are best off asking them to go or you pack your bags.

      Especially to those UPND FOLLOWERS WHO ARE JUST THERE WAITING TO BE GIVEN A JOB IF HH WAS TO WIN.

      My advise, is continue but you will wait forever. You have COMPETENT GUYS in UPND who can take this party to the next level. HH uses his wealth to control and manipulate UPND.

      KENNETH KAUNDA warned Zambia in 1990 that without him and UNIP, Zambia would BURN DOWN. But Zambia moved on, removed him from POWER.

      And KK has been afforded the respect he deserves, now aging gracefully. God Bless KK, he MADE his MISTAKES. It’s NOT EASY RUNNING a nation. It’s a collective measure.

    • Hardly the view of an independent observer but those of someone who thinks political popularity or unpopularity are permanent features. Nothing can be more wrong.

  8. “ONLY A TONGA MUST LEAD UPND” says Sejani. Let them combine in whatever form still they will be miserably defeated in 2021. I have lost the little respect I had for Chipimo for associating himself with this tribalist HH. HH is a very egocentric man with no regard for the welfare of Zambians except for himself. He is that type of a wrong human being who does not want to be led but to lead others, he claims to know it all. He wanted to lead the PF/UPND alliance and not Micheal Sata, that was abomination!!!!!. No wonder he is not normal.

  9. In 2008 George Kunda VP MHRIP addressing a campaign rally in Serenje for a Dr Solomon Musonda , asked a question what was the use of the alliance between Mr Sata and Mr Hichilema since both of them wanted to be president in the 2011 elections. Yes indeed it came to pass that each of the two stood as president. Maybe GBM is in danger of being replaced by Chipimo as VP just maybe,

  10. Kikikikikiki last kicks of the dying horse!!!
    HH has tried all tricks in the political books to enter state house but all in vain.Since 2006,HH has been in several alliances with Nawakwi’s FDD,Nevers mumba’s MMD,Milupi’s party,Mulongoti,Kambwili’s NDC,name it but all in vain.Chipimo’s Narep stood in Chilanga recently and only got less than 100 votes,so which votes can Narep add to Kainde’s UPND in 2021?kikikikiki NOTHING BADAALA!!!
    Even if all the opposition parties unite and being led by tribal Kainde,still many Zambians wont vote for HH in 2021 because the thing or person they dont want in 6.5 provinces is Kainde and not per se!!Plus HH does not want to be led but only him must led in all alliances despite being rejected 5 times by Zambians-WHAT A SELFISH CREATURE THIS HH…

  11. This Tonga, Bemba nonsense should come to an end. We are all Zambians small minds seem to promote this idea. Allow our children to leave in a free nation without engaging tribes.

  12. there you go again judging Elias for having a meeting with this guy… give us the transcript of their conversation so that we can judge Elias. What happened to freedom of association? I met HH recently. A few minutes chat with him I decided, “not presidential material…, too kulibonesha…” He doesn’t have that thing. He lost one vote in 5 minutes. I’m talking about my feelings here not yours

  13. Allow me to look at this thing differently. Underfive h.h could be looking at an alliance which will allow him to withdraw from politics slowly. You say he does not accept to be ked by others, well I say wonders shall never cease, maybe he has changed his mind.

    The only problem with my hypothesis is that we are talking about h.h, a tribal character who is predictably incorrigible. So I withdraw my hypothesis pending further refinement.
    Now I will sit back and enjoy disguised tribal comments from jj.

  14. The aim should not be to unite to remove a sitting government as if they are foreign occupier. Each party must just market itself. Alliances will always fail because each party will want to get the biggest positions. We saw this in the MMD when certain people left because they didn’t get ministerial positions of their choice. Let Chipimo market his own party.

  15. TOO LITTLE AND TOO LATE. THE HOSES HAVE ALREADY FLED. IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORKABLE IN THOSE DAYS WHEN VOTERS HELD YOU IN HIGH ESTEEM. NOW YOU HAVE A LOT OF UNEXPLAINED BAGGAGE. CHILDISH TANTRUMS FROM HH AND INABILITY TO MARSHALL SUPPORT BY CHIPIMO MAKES YOU LOOK LIKE EAGLES WHOSE WINGS HAVE BEEN PLUCKED. YOU CANNOT FLY ANYMORE. DESPITE HIS FLAWS, ECL NOW LOOKS MORE APPEALING TO THE AVERAGE VOTER.

  16. Zambia was/is known as the most peaceful nation in Africa and politically mature until Childish was born on the stage.

  17. At least Elias Chipimo confessed that he made a fortune doing consultancy work for Hichilema during privatization. They cut so many deals. But Chembela kufwa na NO. It’s good for them to consult each other, as long as Hichilema benefits, that’s his guiding principal.

  18. My Prez, stay far away from double H if it’s the last thing you do. Unless you take over as UPND president, the deal is off.

    Chipimo 2021

  19. Hardly the view of an independent observer but those of someone who thinks political popularity or unpopularity are permanent features. Nothing can be more wrong.
