Former President Lungu’s Press Aide Amos Chanda

The Drug Enforcement Commission DEC has summoned former special Assistant to the President for Press and Public Relations Amos Chanda for money Laundering.

The Commission’s Public Relations Officer Theresa Katongo has confirmed the development in an interview.

Ms. Katongo says Mr. Chanda is expected to appear before the Commission’s money laundering offices on Wednesday at 9:00 hours.

In June this year, Mr. Chanda resigned from his position as special assistant to the president for press and public relations.

  1. WHY ARE THESE CROOKS ONLY SUMMONED ONCE THEY’VE EXITED THE CANCER THAT IS P.F??

    • The whole of P.F is Dem0n!c, STEALING FOR A HOBBY, & LYING, WHILST THEY HAVE GROUND ZAMBIA TO A HALT, & LEFT THE POOR /VULNERABLE STARVING TO DEATH!
      Meanwhile Cadres ati “Let’s Roll” Don’t tell me ba J0n@ was not aware his sidekick was stealing, I’m sure this guy was J0n@’s personal banker, hiding illegal proceeds stripped from the treasury.
      Just imagine these P.F leeches, & vampires after they are kicked out of office? The WHOLE P@NG4 F2AT3RN!TY WILL BE IN THE DOCK, & SPENDING LOVELY HOLIDAYS IN PRISONS DOTTED ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

    • Imwe please, wasting our time, questioning PF corruption.
      Has anyone questioned this Chanda guy regarding the house he is building in eSwatinni? I thought him, just as ECL got donated land ……(maybe also building a house too), how can a Press Secretary get such a gift?
      This case was swept below the carpets. That’s how bad things are, for those who can not see.

    • Forget about Eswatini
      Ask yourself what a civil servant at level of director is doing inServal road after working for barely 5 years as press aide London and presidential spokesperson. These 1diots are at a level where they dont even hide ill gotten wealth like the late Wayaya on Bishops road and Wayaya farms

    • Allow for the rule of law to take precedence.
      Innocent until proven guilty.

      DEC is doing the right thing.
      Chanda will comply.

      At face value, the ka guy guy looks innocent.
      Let’s wait and see.

    • I have never seen a useless person like Sharon she is always out of topic but I can not be surprised because three quarters of PF cadres are dull.

  2. Why is he being questioned on money laundering only and not theft as well ? You cant launder legitimately earned money can you? You only launder stolen or corruptly earned money . The DEC must add more charges.

    • Cage the 1doit, this moron is a thief and his ka former boss, the ka worst president on earth, aka, Scatter teeth, aka Jona Meno Meno, the thieving lawyer wanna be

  3. Let the law take its course. If Amos was involved in corruption, let him be arrested. If he wasn’t, let him be free. In Zambia, you are innocent until proven guilty.

    • Illusions of fighting corruption,

      This is window dressing by lungu to deflect our attention.

      We all know this is the last time we hear about this ,

      We all know as soon as chanda pledges to use his stolen money to campain for lungu , that is the deal. Case in the dust bin.

  4. Nowonder umwaiche alekelele inchito yabu chola boy kuli kateka mulandu waminwe itali. Aletuka aba kalamba ba Kambwili inshiku shamulinganya. umwaiche ashilanya ekalisha ilyo anya. Uwenda na ngoshe……

  5. We know lungus modus apparendi,

    We know lungus quid pro quo DEC and ACC….

    These summonings serve two purposes…….

    first to to dupe the public that there is a fight against corruption…..

    SECOND and more important, is to signal the summoned chaps to keep outoff politics AND to use their stolen resources to campain for lungu…..

    This a clear signal is conveyed in no uncertain terms that there is a case and any change in GRZ and the case will reopen.

    • ……So campaining for lungu using their stolen resources is in their benifit.

      We know how you operate KZ, you can fool drunk patrons at chita , but we know your operations….

    • ……So campaining for lungu using their stolen resources is in their benifit.

      We know how you operate KZ, you can dupe drunk patrons at chita , but we know your operations….

  6. What is most depressing is that, amidst all this scandal after scandal, these guys still have supporters even on this forum. Cry my once beloved Zambia.

  7. This is just 2022 preview. FindECLay summoned by DEC for drugs allegations, Kanpyongo to explain purchase of fire trucks, Chitotele 1.2 billion dollar Ndola road will be the call of the day

  8. Zambia is in a hurry to development and that the current government is trying by all means to make it happened, So far so good that the rains have come it is our time to focus on planting maize at the farms, no wasting time on social media let us work. God has given us land, air, energy, and free rains.

  9. iwe ka Sharon wanyela Mubafa elo washindila na ku mpupi stop talking rubbish about our president HH this should be ur last time wekasushi iwe.

  10. DEC is a useless entity, suffice to say toothless and unethical. With so much corruption allegations floating to and from right in their face, no one is taken to be responsible. You will only see it happening on people without money and power, especially those that are no longer part of the ruling government. As a citizen of this country I have 100% doubt if these organisations work in the best interest of the Zambian people, especially the least in society. STOP WASTING OUR TIME WITH SUCH. PROVE YOUR EFFICIENCY WHEN PEOPLE ARE CRYING OF INJUSTICE. PUPPETS!

  11. Leaders are born not made the more you critisize the President Dr. Edgar Chagwa Lungu and his government the more he raise like an Eagle. Let us all focus on how will develop our country, because the government is you and your ability to work.
