Patriotic Front Deputy Chiefwip Tutwa Ngulube has accused some foreign governments to sponsoring activities aimed at stopping the Constitutional Amendment Bill.

Mr Ngulube said some foreign governments present in Zambia are working with some NGOs and some individuals up delays the constitutional amendments.

He said the foreign governments are doing so for selfish motives.

My Ngulube was speaking during Sunday’s PF Interactive Forum held at Longacres Lodge in Lusaka.

He said some donors are sponsoring people to denounce the process in order to make ordinary Zambians believe that the motive to have the constitution refined is ill conceived and meant to benefit the pf government.

Mr. Ngulube has called on those against or with reservations on certain clauses in the proposed bill No. 10 of 2019 to come forward and make submissions using the right channels that have been made available, rather than demonize the entire process which is meant to benefit Zambians.

  1. Most of these people in politics are generally dull. Right thinking Zambians have opposed the absurd amendments you want to do to the Constitution. You want to concentrate power in Edgar Lungu and you want to borrow without anyone asking why. Tutwa just continue running an illegal station in Kabwe if you have nothing sensible to say

    • Tutwa is just Daydreaming. Are LAZ, Churches, Opposition Parties, ZCTU, BOZ, ECZ etc who are opposed to the Amendment Bill No.10 sponsored by Foreign Institution? Tutwa should know that Zambians are not foolish, they know what they want. They have rejected Bill 10 for many reasons. PF made those Amendments becoz they stand to gain if the Bill becomes Law.

    • But kwena some people are just unprincipled. No morals at all. Its true that education does nothing to improve morals. A devil remains a devil regardless of how educated they are. They just become educated devils.
      Such men are the kind that lead to genocide and civil wars for the sake maintaining their selfish interests

    • It’s only that we have a compromised judiciary and electoral commission otherwise Tutwa Ngulube wouldn’t be sitting in Parliament. He thinks we don’t know about the people he usually ferries from Chisamba Constituency in buses to vote for him in Kabwe Central. He’s a criminal, and Edgar has a knack for awarding criminals. Today Tutwa is a Deputy Chief Whip!

  2. We know you chaps, you want when you make styopet decisions and we question you then you refer us to the equally styopet Constitution and say there’s nothing wrong because it’s in the Constitution. Styopet idyots!

  3. We do not need donors to see through your deceit. Leave the constitution alone! If all important stake holders have rejected your twisted intentions whose agenda are you championing?
    Moreover you cannot be changing the constitution all the time. Its not your underware okey!

  4. THE TAKE ZAMBIAN CITIZENS TO BE *****S AS IF WE CANNOT MAKE UP OUR OWN MIND ABOUT THE AMENDMENTS —— !!!!! WE THE CITIZENS DO NOT WANT AMENDMENTS MADE TO THE CONSTITUTION !

  5. “…Patriotic Front Deputy Chiefwip Tutwa Ngulube has accused some foreign governments to sponsoring activities aimed at stopping the Constitutional Amendment Bill….”.

    Pointing fingers at others. That has been quite a familiar refrain by ALL failing Zambian governments, or even other third world governments. So mighty PF, are you admitting …..? Trouble is that the failing parth does not see it’s own failure.
    Same with HH, his eyes and brain cannot accept that he has failed because UPND can only be led by their own.

  6. Someone needs to tell Tutwa that the amendments they are trying to push are bad for the nation. Absolutely nothing in there for the ordinary citizen to benefit from except you and Lungu who want to continue running the country in transition and getting paid when you’re not supposed too. You want to hijack functions of state institutions for your own good. Right now we including police officers are suffering at the hands of cadres, we sure don’t want to surrender the little freedom we have to you. Get that unwanted constitution and trash as we the people have rejected it.

    • Approval of any Article containing “… as prescribed …” means that after Bill is approved by 2/3 majority of ALL Mp’s, there is nothing to prevent PF “refining” (LOL) or prescribing anything with simple mayority of voting MP’s
      They can even introduce one party State or appoint you as chief morron.

    • Yabaaa… Finish!! Iyo kwena uli mbushi!! Walanda wapwisha?? It shows how shallow your understanding of these matters is, how can you rely on the upnd to tell about something you can read and understand yourself?? I guess it all boils down to dullness….

  7. ACTUALLY THIS ISN’T IMPORTANT BECAUSE NO CITIZEN WILL SAY AMEND CONSTITUTION WHEN THE PRESSURE IS LOAD SHEDDING, WATER RATIONING AND MEALS MEAL TO MENTION BUT A FEW THE AMENDMENT IS A BATTLE FOR POLITICIANS BECAUSE THEY DON’T FEEL THE PRESSURE OF THE ORDINARY CITIZENS IF THEY MEANT WELL THEY WOULD DEAL WITH CONSTITUTION AFTER THEY SORTED OUT THE ORDINARY CITIZEN I DON’T THINK ANY ORDINARY CITIZEN IS THINKING WEATHER OR NOT HE WANTS DEPUTY MINISTERS. BUT WE ARE ALL THINKING MEALIE MEAL IS TOO EXPENSIVE

  8. i feel pit for these guys on every day they manage to create enemies bother internal and external. well what is is bad is bad the same way icc issue was rejected is the say way bill number 10 will be thrown away by the majority zambians. well done people of the land not to allow unwanted amendment bill. for whose sake they are forcing it on peoples throughts oh for sake the chinese.
