Bishop Joshua Banda

The Evangelical Fellowship of Zambia says it does not support the extension of the presidential petition hearing period from 14 to within 30 days.

EFZ Spokesperson, Joshua Banda says extending the days can weaken the security of the nation.Bishop Banda said EFZ considers as a priority the security of the nation.

He said this when he submitted before the Parliamentary Select Committee that is scrutinizing the Constitution Amendment Bill Number 10 of 2019.

Bishop Banda however said the Fellowship supports the seven days to file the petition.

And Bishop Banda said the fellowship supports the declaration of Zambia as a Christian Nation and must be retained as it is in the current constitution.

  1. In our time there was only the Christian Council of Zambia now we have so many breakaway church mother-bodies. 1 Jesus and 1 Bible but too many churches, especially Pentecostals. A national election isn’t a trivial matter that you can sort out with fake national prayers. Most men of god are mere con men. Remove tithe from these churches they’ll collapse. ZRA must extend its inspections to churches, they must be in the forefront to give Caeser what belongs to him. Poorly managed elections can be a source of serious conflict, ask the Catholics who have been around longer

    • This is great. You don’t give an evil dribbler who has intents to stagnate the nation a month to begin changing goal posts and hold the electorate and nation at ransom. He doesn’t know that winning elections is about numbers. He doesn’t have those numbers but in his dream he thinks he has! NEVER give in to the Privatisation Crook/Thief who wants power at all cost. He is a loser and HAZALUZA HAGAIN. He is UNELECTABLE and UNLIKABLE.

  2. He is still immature, still playing under age politics. United Party for Distruction. Asukeni ba supporter. Concourt will be waiting for you in 2021.

  3. The bishop should stick to cheating those who listen to him. Politics is a secular matter; he should stay out of it. Bishop indeed, is this title so common these days? Christian nation where? Christianity is an individual redemption. You really do not understand it if you think a nation can be saved by a declaration. Since when have Zambians become so gullible?

  4. Who gives a damn what these thieving Christian Right wing terrorists think? We abandon our gods and adopt the alien Jewish ones and when rains fail we wonder why? In the olden days indunas will go kwaShimwalule or kwaMakono and by the time they return it is pula ya lyombolangombe!

  5. Just look at the constitutional crisis this so called Constitutional Kangaroo Court Lungu appointed almost sparked last time? Whether it’s one day or 30 days it doesn’t matter, the only thing that dislodges Zambian presidents from power is Carcinoma cancer, heart attacks or the bullet. Especially Lungu, he is the most useless and most entrenched, we have to bring guns, caterpillars and bulldozers to flush him out.

  6. THIS SO CALLED BISHOP IS A STAUCH PF CADRE. HE EVEN DRIVES A GRZ NUMBER PLATE TOYOTA HILUX. IS HE A CIVIL SERVANT? NO.THESE A CONMEN LYING IN THE NAME OF GOD. THIS CHAP CZ ECL IS FROM THE EAST SO HE HAD TO SUPPORT HIM. GOD WILL PUNISH U KA.

  7. These are the same chaps who were paraded by FTJ Chiluba supporting his plan to go for a third term.
    “Men of Gold” indeed
