GBM is an embarassment

Dear Editor,

Yes we have a deeply divided country and polarising political rivarly.I think GBM, in using stunningly vulgar language against HH and his chairperson Mutale Nalumango, may have tried too hard to impress EL and the PF.

I just cannot believe that the President will not be put-off by that kind of language from a person of GBMs age, position in society and ambitions. There is also the point that not too long ago, that kind of vitriol was directed at EL himself. Somehow, he is supposed to now be impressed by it simply because it’s HH at the receiving end?

If I were him, I would change strategy because the people he is insulting are mute and the ones he wants to impress are ignoring him. GBM is an embarrassment to himself and his family. Very disappointing indeed. Ba GBM bakulu and insults should never be part of his language.It’s good the PF is not giving him the attention he expected.

Mr President people like GBM, your inner circle and the police are finishing you off .The voters are very upset; do not be misled by anyone.

    • Its sad to be part of Zambian Politics…..all just a bunch of crooks…just stop dividing Zambians…all Zambian Politicians are useless and no morals…at once i thought HH was our saviour but now he is dealing with a well known Mpatamatu bandit Kambwili…..shame on Lungu,GBM,HH,Kambwili etc

    • The writer left out a key issue that is “finishing of Mr President” failure to Manage the ECONOMY ! He has horribly failed together with his PF

    • Truly so, GBM is over doing it.
      Remember how Mumbi Phiri used to insult GBM that she had to kneel to see his d!k? Then GBM hit back that Mumbi alaisundawila nga akolwa?
      Such insults keep them in PF.
      Nalumango and HH never said nothing to degrade GBM. We hope HH will take advantage and show Zambians that he is mature now… And GBM is not.

    • Only 2weeks ago GBM was a saint and ck was a buffoon. Today posts have changed sides. The only embarrassments to our political system is upnd who are not clear with what they want for zambia. Last week Gbm was a darling because he was insulting ECL while ck was insulting hh. Today ck is insulting ecl while Gbm has gone for hh.

    • Yes, GBM is an embarrassment to Zambia.
      Not because he left UPND, but because he left PF in the first place. I am against political prostitution. Period.
      And especially that he is out there insulting people on the opposite side? Really, its something this man should be ashamed of. Get him back to PF, but DO NOT FORGIVE HIM, let his shadow tame him while he is alive. It’s not an excuse or argument from PF cadres who are saying, GBM was welcomed and left to insult ECL when he joined UPND, so UPND shouldn’t be against after he re-joined back PF. That is bulshiit argument.
      This guy deserves to be condemned for being a political prostitute. period. We can’t condone this.

    • To think that this is the calibre of people occupying the higher political positions in our ruling and opposition parties? A disgrace of a man. Nothing to offer the country. Just rubbish

    • So aba Bemba bena balasamwa na nsele shapala sewage nabo bachetekela ukuba intungulushi muchalo? (So Bemba speaking people are happy with rubbish insults from those they hope to be national leaders?) Would one be wrong that Bemba is one language where demeaning talk and insults are mode of speech? What dignity does GBM carry about him with such foul language? This kind of language was a taboo among peace loving Zambians until PF came on the scene and Bemba led the way as language of choice for those who wished to insult! Oh! Not to forget that some high ranking leader took leaf and added a language of eastern Zambia with his own snippets of insulting! At highest level its common to hear insults in Bemba by the PF president and leaders! Some in MMD brought in a good share in an Eastern…

    • contd….. Province language! It’s like to succeed as a politician one has to embrace disgrace of the Bemba language! I wish not to be taken out of context but rather people who find comfort spewing out insults should think before taking such actions unless they choose to insult in their mother tongues to dignify the tribe as such and for their understanding. otherwise I wouldn’t mind having a law that would bar from political participation anyone using insults as a way of messaging or debate and fighting political foes!

    • Already feeling it.
      GBVM promised to do what he just doing.

      What wrong did you do to him.
      Elolwanya.

  1. Would someone please tell me why GBM has not been arrested for making divisive and inflammatory remarks that no Lozi or Tonga will ever ascend to the Zambian presidency ????

    • There is nothing wrong to Tonga or Lozi whatever say the least.
      There will be no black Prime Minister in UK.

  2. “no Lozi or Tonga will ever ascend to the Zambian presidency ????”
    BUT IT IS TRUE BECAUSE OF THEIR TRIBALISM.
    ZAMBIANS KNOW THIS VERY WELL

    • The ones in power now are foreigners, and have strategized to stop the true Zambians which outrightly include the Tongas and the Lozis.

    • True Zambians are prevented from ruling our country. Foreigners are allowed to rule us Zambians. A true Zambian who is contesting for presidency is given all sorts of discrediting names so that people see him as an undeserving and very bad person for president. Foreigners have hijacked the Zambian politics.

    • So why don’t you hive them off from your Zambia? The Lozi’s want their Bulozi restored and you “Zambians” who will not ever let one of them ascend to the presidency keep on curtailing their desire to leave you alone!

  3. Apparently, that’s the calibre of Zambian politicians. No morals nor
    principals whatsoever.

    Even their wives are left dumbfounded because they interact in line with
    their husbands’ political affiliations.

    Just yesteryear, Kambwili was insulting HH, today they are buddies.
    Miles Sampa tried some pot-shots at ECL, today he is back in PF singing
    praise songs needless to mention Mulenga Sata.

    A political overhaul is all we need in our land.

    • To the point. GBM was insulting ECL in the presence of HH and Nalumanga. They remained mute and laughed. Today GBM is insulting HH and Nalumanga, ECL has remained mute. Zambian politics!

    • @Matumbo,
      And yet you have people on both sides of the aisle praising him……………..What type of people are we?
      These cadres can’t distinguish what is wrong, but they will rather bitch about tri.balism. Damn.

    • @Matumbo,
      And yet you have people on both sides of the aisle praising him……………..What type of people are we?
      These cadres can’t distinguish what is wrong, but they will rather b.it.ch.ing about tri-bal.ism. Damn.

  4. When a person adversely describes another human being, he or she simply explains his/her psychological abilities. Additionally, and more significantly, an individual who negatively depicts another, simply reveals to critical listeners or hypercritical readers the nature and extent of his/her wild imaginations and, such a person does not bring to the fore real matters of substance regarding his/her target. GBM has revealed his below-average intelligence which is self-destructive and, it is certainly detrimental to his in-group companions. The PF Party must advise him to focus on strengthening it, as opposed to dwelling on his current strategies which appear as if they were crafted by a ‘twelve year old boy’. Good luck to non-reactionary forces.

  5. The truth of matter here is GBM will never be as close to state house as he was during Sata’s time.
    Budhism simply says pain is generated from within an individual and only him/her has power to end it. GBM is simply hating himself

  6. There’s nothing wrong with belonging to any political party of one’s choice, but what one says about where they are coming from. Insulting your previous political party is of no value whatsoever. Just leave and say something like one differed in ideologies and beliefs, and therefore could not continue being in a political party they are leaving whether it’s the ruling party or the opposition. God bless Zambia.

  7. People, please feel sorry for GBM, the man is in trouble financially and needs a Government that can support him. He has to be seen to be useful for PF otherwise he is useless to them.

  8. The resignation of GBM from UPND could have been accepted by many people as normal.But what GBM is engaged in now is something very,very ,very cheap and was least expected from a person who held the position of Vice President.Apart from politics there is also a human side where you relate to people as ordinary human beings deserving respect and courtesy even after differing politically. GBM by trying to impress PF is saying things even PF are shocked to hear. GBM is not destroying UPND/HH but is for sure destroying himself.He has taken the Zambian political record for treachery,immorality,insincerity,emptiness and untrustiworthiness. GBM is finished. MHSRIEP.

  9. Poor Lazaro he is doing so to try to impress Edgar who is also mute on someone who is trying to dividing the country through preaching tribalism.Change the strategy bwana .

  10. Gone Back Mukiba (GBM for you).
    He has lost three things: His weight, his businesses and brains!
    Brain yayonda … Kikikiki
    Insala Kapondo zoona!

    • Just last week you were defending him about the weight loss that he is doing alot of exercise and today because he left you it has become hunger. This is why a normal person can never support the party for under5s.

  11. GBM: True he is an embarrasment, with no age and position in society. He is finished and time (soon) will tell. What a thief!
    Go and Go KBF and Go and Go Komaki. There will be no PF by the end of 2019.

  12. I have known ba GBM as far back as 1983 .the day he was appointed as cabinet minister it didn’t shock me as such because ever since Zambia plunged into plural politics a group of drug lords and plunderers assumed power so there is nothing shocking a bout GBM utterance someone who can insult his father

  13. GBM has a very wrong understanding of how wealth works in politics.He believes money can buy everything and everybody. So he went to UPND and spent big,believing that would buy him the loyalty of the party and allow him carte blanche in his desires.NO,when it was time to get marching orders,he got them,out of the party.It appears beyond the squeeze on his business he spent a lot on UPND activities to create his base – so he is hurting bcoz his investment has been in vain!!BUT HE IS GOING ABOUT WRONGLY!!

  14. The credible opposition is UPND and HH and he is most likely to make the next government in 2021. Iam Bemba and i would like him to try and govern this country too, because the current leaders in government have failed us. Lets give him a chance.

  15. Dear Zambians. I respected GBM l didn’t know him well that he has a small brain. Immature and useless. He is not a real man the way he reacts to his disagreements with other people. Zambians let’s unite together and get rid of such politicians or one day our country will be on FIRE. The country is a mess.

  16. Mr Tantrum GBM was prominently featured on ZNBC TV news tonight orchestrating a mass defection of ex UPND’s to PF in Kasama. They were all being paraded citing bad leadership in UPND being the reason for switching to PF.
    It seems being open to ridicule is the last thing on this sellout , double agent’s mind

  17. GBM is misleading people. His levels of reasoning and ignorance shows he hasn’t read constitution. If ECL died today or is incapacitated Inonge Wins automatically becomes president no by election required. Where did he by his Doctorate degree?? He can only confuse people with his level of thinking. He is not fit to be in any political party. Clean politics, all recycled politicians should be banned from politics for the country to progress.

  18. Sad that the politicians are doing to Zambia. Zambia is one of the richest countries by materials so what we should do is to try and forget about the politicians and make money in Zambia and make it wealthy then the kinds of politicians which we will attract will be different

  19. I believe pf and their president believe in anyone who say wrong things or
    language as long as it is directed at hh and now kambwili

  20. What is wrong with you people? Be honest and straight, it is like upnd is a party of people who doesn’t know GOD.They have their god who they pray to,remember any replacement in the place of God that becomes idol worship and this exactly what is happening in this party. Just the symbol itself is of a secret society, wake up you guys.GBM as a right to choose his political party he wants to belong to what’s wrong with that.Viva uncle GBM viva ECL and viva PF.

  21. Everyone in Upnd is an embarrassment for having accepted GBM in the first place and giving him a position. He was not an embarrassment when you allowed him to insult the Republican president at your rallies. Did ever dissuade from such behavior? Nay, it was good.

  22. Until the face of zambian politics changes. Same old bunch of recycles crooks. It is said that if you don’t involve yourselves in your political leadership don’t complain if the *****s, cadres and illiterates lead you.

  23. Everything in Upnd is calling GBM useless. How pathetic. This clearly shows that you will do anything to get to power. We told you GBM is more volatile than mercury but you didn’t want to listen. Nobody knows what he’ll do next. I’m sure even himself is taken by surprise by the things he does.

  24. When he was ranting ati Tu PF you did not censor him but cheered him on. Muzamu ziba yesu ba shonongo.

    • That’s why I don’t trust HH. If Satan promised him passage to state house he would pick him as running mate.
