President Edgar Lungu warned those who are maneuvering and holding dark corner meetings to reposition themselves for positions to stop and concentrate on working hard.

President Lungu says he is aware of those who are working hard to build the party and those who are trying to destabilize it.

He was speaking on arrival at Harry Mwaanga Nkumbula International Airport in Livingstone this morning

And President Lungu who was accompanied by his Press aide Amos Chanda said no one will direct him on whom to fire or hire because that power is exclusively vested in him.

He further said the power to appoint and dismiss Patriotic Front members subject to disciplinary measures is also vested in him.

President Lungu said just because members of the party employed his government does not give them power to direct who should be fired and hired.

He was received in Livingstone by Southern Province Minister, Edify Hamukale, Finance Minister Margaret Mwanakatwe and National Planning Minister Alexander Chiteme.

Others are member of the PF Central Committee Kebby Mbewe and Southern Province PF Chairperson Lawrence Eavns among others.

Meanwhile, Southern Province Minister Edify Hamukale said the province is peaceful.

    • Mr. Lungu is insecure. He knows he is doing a terrible job at being president of PF and Zambia. If a mere cadre like Munir can publicly scoff at the party Secretary General and no action is taken….And you are surprised that people are holding dark corner meetings?

    • XXXX Princess – We have told you not to mention Simon Miti here ….whatever he did to you at that Lodge whilst on holiday iin Zambia is between the two of you. You should not have gone there in the first place

    • dark PF
      PF Southern Province divided. Edify has to leave!
      PF Luapula Province is a pie-3, with Kalaba, Chilufya and Davis Mwila camps
      PF Lusaka Province with coming of Lusambo an Miles Sampa with his own 25 man cabinet, I hear KBF is also pulling strong.
      PF- Copperbelt, is in total disarray, even ZAFFICO employees are accused to be UPND. Akakunkubiti Chanda is now PF copperbelt boss.

    • Lazy bum GAY JAY illiterate tribal thug hooligan bully UPND online thug pooping in Public HAGAIN son of a tribal polygamist father who never taught him toilet training needing MUTINTA to change his DIAPERS HAGAIN. CHILDISH is UNELECTABLE!

    • Lungu is a coward. Just get on with the job mate. You store the election and you will forever be looking over your shoulder and will be scared of your own shadow.

  1. Does he need so many soldiers around him? Zambia is a peaceful why move with a battalion of soldiers as if he is a war Lord. Zambia police surely should be the one escorting him.
    Zambian army has become cheap. Let them be involved in community projects like unblocking seer pipes if they have nothing to do.

  2. Lazy Lungu warns, Lazy concerned, Lazy calls ….what a useless leader we have in State House!!

    • Lazy bum GAY JAY illiterate tribal hooligan bully thug son of a tribal polygamist father who never taught him toilet training pooping in public HAGAIN and needs a diaper change from MUTINTA HICHILEMA and CHARMAINE. The tribal online chief will never grow up just like CHILDISH his little god he worships. The useress privatisation thief is UNELECTABLE because he has THREE MANSIONS.

  3. He was talking to Chitalu chilufya and the luapula United group who are eyeing the presidency.

  4. Edgar remains Zambia’s president until 2021 whether u want or u don’t want he is the current leader of Zambia no matter what!!!!!

  5. This president we have is always scared of his own shadow. He knows exactly what they have done in the dark, anyhow their end will come no matter how long it takes. Sometimes i feel a military take over can suit the current situation.

  6. Mr. president ,the dark corner meetings are very serious matters which boils to undermining,worse classified traitors hence when identified,discard the elements without any reservation.

  7. @Extension … don’t say ‘no matter what’. Leaders have been removed from power before their term is up for various reasons – some justifiable. Don’t perpetuate backward politics here.

  8. Dark comer meetings are normal trend in a democracy. Why do you want to stop people from associating and discussing their own ideas and views? Bantu Beletina Lesa Elo Futi Naiwe? Wala! Thats tyrany and you’re not god who is all seeing. Just work, do the right things for the people and you wont have to worry about outcasts who meet in dark conners.
