The National Democratic Congress has suspended its secretary general Mwenya Musenge for 21 days saying his announcement that the party had fired its consultant Chishimba Kambwili was done against the constitution of the NDC.
At a media briefing after a central committee meeting this afternoon, NDC vice-president Josephs Akafumba said the party deputy secretary general Bridge Atanga would act in Musenge’s position.
“We have resolved that due to what transpired for our go to UNZA Radio and make that announcement which has put our party into disrepute. We wish to act as follows. 1, we are asking our Secretary General to go on leave, to give him time to reflect and to give him time to cool off. In the place of our secretary general, our deputy Secretary General Mrs Atanga will act. We will write to him, telling him the resolutions of this central committee. So, those are the resolutions of the central committee. The other matters that we discussed are matters of internal house keeping which it will not be prudent for me to reveal. We all acknowledged that the steps that our brother took are outside the constitution which guides us all,” said Akafumba.
“The duration of his leave is plus or minus 21 days. As to what we shall decide thereafter, we will cross that bridge when we get there.”
Meanwhile, Police Spokesperson Esther Katongo has disclosed that Chishimba Kambwili will appear before investigators on Monday. Mrs Katongo said that said Kambwili’s lawyers wrote to the Police claiming that they were unavailable to make it and proposed that Kambwili turns up on Monday.
“We have recieved communication in writing through Hon. Chishimba Kambwili’s Lawyers that their client was unable to report himself today because there were no Lawyers to accompany him as all of them were committed”.
“We are sending fresh communication for him to appear on Monday at 10:00 hours.”
Police in Lusaka summoned Kambwili for questioning in regard to his perceived racist and xenophobic attacks against an Indian national.
In a call-out signed by Lusaka Division Deputy DCIO, P Sapaulu, the police said that Mr. Kambwili must present himself to Room E3 at Lusaka Division on Friday at 14hrs.
Kambwili was expected to report today Friday, 22nd February 2019 at 14hrs.
In a video, Mr Kambwili is heard insulting and issuing racist remarks against a grader operator working on the Lusaka Decongestion Project financed by Exim Bank of India.
The comedy continues…

We advised Ba Davies Mwila to send that Sunday Thing out to play in trash dump, while we watch NDC hustling on TV. All these week should be celebrated by PF, unfortunately ifinkula fyalifulishamo, no wonder ka Maggie want to sell them in slavery.
It is week for Kambwili, Mwenya and Mutati.
The end. Is this a serious party? Where people keep suspending each each? The NDC is siding with racists, xenophobes and it wants to contest elections?
This party is now a comedy show.
I had so much hope for NDC, but they failed to win Lusaka Mayoral Seat and have not managed to field one single MP. Mwenya Musenga should just go with his tail between his legs to PF and beg forgiveness. Eric Chanda had resigned and now we don’t even know which heavyweights are left in NDC because I have never heard Acting SG Bridge Atanga.
NDC will now be added to the Nashala Neka parties
Cage the *****.let him move his family Uk if st all he means well to Zambian people.Do not use idiocy to seek attention
He’s enjoying British pounds but he doesn’t want the Indian to enjoy the kwacha…..except that the Indian is supposed to do a job that has no qualified Zambian.
Hehehehe ba ndanji….
Is that the best you can come up with after your ponttaring about a consultant being fired ???
Hehehehe….
Spaka sometimes I think you’re just a computer controlled robot of Terminator 1.
There is a Judas Iscariot in this party.
I must say it has been an entertaining week by NDC away from the boring and usual stories of UPND factions trying to be know that they exist by the ICC. NDC is a party of comedians and mad people with no direction at all.
This will become another MMD with two factions who will keep fighting each other just to please their egos.
Yes Musenge will put an injunction.
The end of the road.
The party has only a vice president without a president?
A leader should be very sober minded. Firm but fair. How can you find somebody operating a grader, and you start shouting because of the colour of the person. That is being very f.oolish. You don’t even probe or querry and you start shouting. My posting is not political but this Kambwili chap is sick. And a good leader has good emotional intelligence, if you see such emotional outbursts, something should tell you that tamuli nangu imo mu mutwe. I am a member of the opposition and I thank Mwenye Musenge for quickly picking up this m.adness in this political hooligan
But sata was doing the same to the Chinese, he ended up as president , no ??
So if Hakalema poops in public, Spaka must also do the same?
Spaka, Sata was in a different era of Zambian politics, and Sata himself was quite a character. To think that one can get away with it just because Sata got away with it is to miss the point. This is the same mistake HH made when he thought that being arrogant against authorities just like Sata was against RB would give him a victory.
Yes , but you are all trying to paint CK racist, I am saying he is a nationalist like sata, who you all cheered on.
It could past politics to compare sata time and now , but unemployment is worse…
This is Tom and Jerry episodes. Friends ask me where am I from I say from Mazbuka, the mention of Zambia makes me sick. I got Indian friends born in Zambia so embarrased
You…..even in the UK there is a policy of jobs for British first…foringe looking get chaps get asked to prove immigration status all the time…..and ask your friends if they have ever seen a Zambian doing menial work in India .??
Americans have Trump as President but proudly say American. So say Zambian with God’s blessings. Stop being regional and ignoorant. I can let you see a video of how Indians treat Africans. Even there in the UK.
Spaka today we agree. I do not know how, but we are on the same Chapter kikikikiki.
Nzelu
Agreed, you are a son of the soil…..
Musenge was paid by ka Nathan chanda ,
We don’t know what he was promised , but watch him slink away…..musenge only has his wife following him….no one else.
Every nation has jobs reserved for it’s citizens, why should it be different in Zambia, even in India the case is the same CK was not one out it is only in Zambia were citizens hate each other and prefer those from outside shame on you Zambians.
Zambians are cruel towards one another who has bewitched you.
Iwe trib.al Akafumba, Musenge also spoke after attending a central committee meeting. How many central.committees does NDC have?
Akafumba, Bridget Attanga and husband, are you normal in the head? You must be trib.als to reason like that?
NDC is not for Musenge.
And what do the members of NDC say? They will start trooping back to PF. They can’t troop to trib.al upnd can they? No they can’t, because that would mean supporting the useless trib.al named…..the one who wants to be president because trib.als think the presidency in Zambia rotates according to trib.al.
Akafumba, Atanga, this party is not going eneweya. Akashambatwa failed to run a party. Sakwiba failed. Saboi failed.
Lozi’s cant run a politiko party.
Kkkkkk they said stomach consultant aka president in waiting was better than Adolf and his side kick great bag of maize…uhm..he went cross country giving unwanted ‘solidarity’ being the chief mourner. Anytime he got a call out he would instantly his stomach popping like a well structured anthill he would collapse…next..he was involved in accident after accident due to over speeding and blamed others…then as always bewitched he attacked a man who looked like an Asian he dared the whole world stomach first into his car and dashed off…..fearing another fainting episode he has failed to turn up at the police…the cells are waiting…kkkkkk
