  3. When it comes to political violence the PF and the UPND are Siamese twins. Leave them to their own devices, they’re cursed

  4. why does this DPP take so long to always issue instructions?, it has become a norm now for political opponents to be punished at enforcement stage and not after judgement by the courts. people will languish in prison all for nolle prosecui to be entered. how i wish there was a way to sue arresting officers at individual level for wrongful detention.

  5. Quick at arresting the opposition but PF cadres, who are the real threat to security, enjoy the protection. PF cadres destroyed a UPND campaign vehicle in Kasama in full view of the Police but no one has so far been arrested. Let us all peace loving Zambians condemn political violence.

  6. What a dangerous modus operandi of bringing food onto the table for one’s beloved family. I pity Mucheleka, but he and the other goons should not have stooped so low to the point of behaving like bandits. Let the full force of the law take its own course to deter the would be evil perpetrators.

  7. Am told upnd were campaigning with one main player on red card. Whatever they get should have 2 percent added, the absence of one key player. This thinking may be not true. Usually a team on red card gets more sympathy. Maybe we remove 2 percent..
    Calculate what favours your mind.

  8. These are the thugs in upnd. Imagine every election having to deal with such savages. We thank our men and women in uniform for swiftly apprehending these criminals. We hope the full wrath of the law is unleashed on them. Remember the damage these idlots did will cost our tax payers. This is a very serious crime.

  10. Tabbie we are all going to die. When every human wakes up, it means they are a day closer to their graves , including you. You must be very dull and hurting deep inside. It is not my fault that the party you support is not favoured by the majority of zambian. Zambian do not tolerate tribal parties. You will continue wishing me death while I continue living my life. I ain’t scared of death because I have achieved so much more than you will ever achieve even if you were reincarnated in the next life. My kids are educated and I will ensure that they serve this nation in future too cause I am teaching them how to be patriotic. What are you teaching your ugly kids
