Those accusing government of being behind the gassing of people are mad-President Lungu

Share

President Edgar Lungu has accused those accusing government of orchestrating the gassing of people in several parts of the country of being mad.

In a Facebook post, President Lungu said those accusing government of being behind the gassing of its citizens are patients who deserve time in a mental asylum.

“How can government do such kind of a thing? If they have evidence of any government official involved let them report the matter to the police,” President Lungu stated.

He said the gassing of innocent citizens by criminals is very un-Zambian as its people are known to be peaceful and law abiding.

The Head of State has since called for calm among Citizens saying security wings are dealing with gassing activities in the country.

“Zambians can be assured that we will get to the bottom of this and perpetrators will be brought to justice to face the full wrath of the law. Let me also express my disappointment with some people accusing government of gassing its citizens in order to bring confusion in the country.”

“Let me once again warn criminals and anyone involved that the long arm of the law is not short to catch up with perpetrators. Your days are numbered!”

President Lungu called on Zambians to desist from descending on innocent people suspected to be behind the alleged gassing and allow the law enforcement officers to take charge.

“Every person has the right to life, and no one should take the life of a another regardless of the level of provocation,” he said.

  1. Sobering comment. Lets now get to the bottom the matter. First and foremost, please reprimand your ministers from uttering nonsense by accusing the opposition without any evidence. GBM is one such vehicle bring the government into rebuke. He shouldn’t be this hungry for visibility.

  3. Look at this coward lazy Edgar issuing statements on Facebook when 13 of citizens have lost their lives due tension within his country…if this was a by -election he would be there for 4 working days dancing like a dingbat. Leadership is about reassuring your citizens with a live visual presence. You need to resign and let someone else take over in PF you are too weak as a leader Edgar. I doubt you are even making use of your new Political Adviser.

  5. Now that people are pointing at PF as perpetrators that is when you come out to say something. How much more blood does the pf want spilled before they act? The rich through rituals are busy killing the poor and harvesting body parts from the poor, how much more do you want to thrive on innocent blood? The wrath of God is upon all leaders in Zambia and will make you account for all the blood spilled. Our country keeps cursing itself the more innocent blood is spilled. If not careful next year Zambia will be a Battle ground. All MP’s are useless, busy serving interest of one individual and neglecting the masses that actually ushered them into office how quickly we forget where our loyalty must be.

  11. My president the meeting you chaired this morning was very passionate and showing us to how much you love this country. No evil formed against you or pf will manage to bring you or us down. We are working tirelessly to bring to justice these thugs behind this. Slowly we are catching up with them. We will have the last laugh. They think we are silly for not reacting quick.however we want to come with solid evidence such that when treason charges are brought this time around, there will be no pardon.kz

  12. Milupi is playing dangerously into Kainde’s evil games. Little does he know Kainde is protected by the blood of Mukuni who sleeps 14 days at the graveyard then he goes bungee jumping.
    Milupi careful with Akainde. These attacks on Zambians whom you claim you want to govern after 2021 will backfire in your a$$

  17. H.E Dr E Lungu. Papa if this issue of gassing can’t be put to an end by our Zambian security wings please call UN to help. The Wil bring in FBI and Scotland security best in the world please. People should not be dying like this your excellency

  18. If PF leaders did not involve themselves with Seer 1 over their ‘do as I say’ charms, I doubt if this gassing and drawing of blood would have been there. I think this is a condition Seer 1 might have given the people who got his juju. Some Africans will never change-how can u surely believe that u can run a country using juju! Shame to these blood thirsty vampires masquerading as leaders.

  19. Ok. Say we don’t point fingers at anyone but a few things strike me as strange. Why are the usual loud mouths in PF – Lusambo, Kampyongo, Antonio etc not lending their voices to reassure the masses? Why would a govt that wants to call for national prayers for everything including threats from a hopeless boy in SA not call prayers for this? Why did the president keep quiet and spend 4 days in Chilubi campaigning while this situation was getting worse? Why no updates on progress of investigation despite police picking up several culprits?

  20. In other words Lungu is simply saying

    ”I wish I could say I felt guilty for what I did, I don’t!!.”

    He wants to stay in power at all costs, even if it takes spilling innocent blood for ritual scarifices in order to win the elections.
    That’s what African dictators who cling to power do, He learned from Mugabe how things are done,

  21. GBM knows the people doing the gassing. He has had the information for the past 5 years. Arrest him and let him say what he knows.

  22. You won’t listen to Esther crying on TV because you don’t consider her your Wife. Your mind is in Swaziland with your new Wife.

    The fact that she can display such emotions it means you’re a falling her as a Husband to assure her ghat you’re in control of the country.

  23. Ok lungu …

    Why are you afraid of facing live tv cameras , have got an insamoutable guilty conscious ?

    Me thinks lungu and pf want to let these gassings boil a bit more so as to get an excuse to clamb down on all gatherings….

    Just like how the fires were burning markets before 42/42 , then after 42/42 , mysterious no more fires….

  24. I’m not a Lungu man but here I support his logic. The problem with Zambians nowadays is that they see a political card in whatever happens in the country. They want to score political points whatever the occasion. They will twist the story to suit whatever political party they belong to. Let’s not cloud everything in politics

  26. Lungu, can you please call for a press briefing, and tell the nation what you know or what you don’t know about these killings? Are you waiting for instructions from Seer1? Just what’s wrong with you? After you hired the new so called political adviser, we thought things would change. But things are even worse. What style of management is this?

  27. The PF Council Chairperson for Serenje has just been named by one of the gassers caught in the act as being one of the masterminds behind the gassings! His house has since been destroyed and ransacked by an angry mob! What does ba Kateka have to say? Very unfortunate that the president is the first to stigmatize against citizens with mental health challenges! Who is mad now that the gassers have revealed PF as the evil behind the gassings? Let us be humble in the mouth, not just in looks!

  29. Ba Kateka very soon bapompwe balaikatwa and these people must be jailed for life and not the 14 years we hearing and if it is a political party,that political party must banned for life and the leader must be jailed for life.

  30. But your excellency with all due respect, just why haven’t the arrested suspects started appearing in court? What do you expect the citizens to think?

  31. Elections have become a source of our misery, remember this:
    When we say Edgar Lungu is not the president of Zambia but an illegal thief, we know what we are talking about.
    Shocking evidence has emerged that the PF hid more than 12 000 presidential votes for Hakainde Hichilema in Kalulushi constituency alone.
    In the scheme of things, the UPND parliamentary candidate Evaristo Mwalilino sold his victory to Kampamba Mulenga, the PF minister of information. The UPND won by more than 12000 votes but their candidate decided to receive a bribe from Kampamba Mulenga.
    But now the personal driver to traitor Everisto Mwalilino, Wana Chiyengi has spilled the bins.
    According to Chiyengi, former president Rupiah Banda, PF lawyer Kelvin Fube Bwalya were all part of the crime and were the ones who…

  32. Jonny days are numbered! if you are UPND then you`re a big mad fool who`s suppose to be taken to the re-hamb center. Wash your brains with the blood of Jesus

  33. All you fools is insulting the President of this nation will be ashamed very soon. You will see what the devil your friend will do to you. JAH fights battles for his people. its true you`re sick in you`re heads.

  34. Considering that this dum dum was willing to concede defeat in 2016 until savages like bene Kaiser told him to sit down and shut up, I wouldn’t be surprised that the same savages are doing this stuff in the background without telling this puppet clown so that blame can be put on HH as they have already started doing so.

  35. You’re mad yourself why can’t anybody be seriously charged with the offense? Your police can’t even release the chemical used. You’re a Mac president yourself

  36. These are clearly acts perpetrated by opposition. They have shown that they are willing to throw the country under the bus by speaking negatively of it to the outside world. It is therefore not far fetched to think that they would consider it a small thing to invest in anarchy for regime change. God is watching and he will soon put an end to the wickedness of the wicked in Zambia. My words won’t fall down.

  37. The gassing issue puzzle is a joke. Some people are in custody apprehended by the community who are suspects. Even pupils have been suspects. Surely the intelligency community in Zambia cannot extract information as who is a source of all this? It is so wide spread and there secret police who mingle with society to get information. Then we have no security intelligence in Zambia.

  38. “President Edgar Lungu has accused those accusing government of orchestrating the gassing of people in several parts of the country of being mad.”
    What about those in government accusing other people of orchestrating the gassing of people, are they also mad? If not, why not?

    I think this language by the president is beneath the status of president. If you start insulting as a leader you are teaching others to insult.
    You are in governm2nt so you have the power and instruments to stop the violence and bring the perpetrators to justice, fairly of course.

  39. If you arrest anyone without evidence you are as good as an instant justice mob.
    Alternatively, you may as well arrest yourselves first.

  40. Boza mambala number 1 iwe, you are the one whose head is full of masalamusi, you should make an appointment to see Sansakuwa. Iwe na mashabe ka Chagwa iwe! And why does the shape of your mouth look like GBM just gassed you? And please also stop sending that ugly wife of yours with nostrils like a hippopotamus to stop shedding stinking crocodile tears in public like that.
