Nawakwi sued by African Life over Anglo American claims

Share

FDD president Edith Nawakwi has been sued in the High Court of Zambia for contempt of Court by African Life Financial Services following remarks made during a press conference on 6th February 2021 while a case between the latter and its former employees was pending before Court.

The applicants are seeking leave to cite Ms Nawakwi for contempt of Court so that she may show cause why she should not be sent to prison for her utterances.

The matter has been taken to court by Mr Muna Hantuba in his capacity as Executive Director of African Life Financial Services who contends that Mrs Nawakwi’s comments over the transfer of retirement benefits for workers employed by Anglo American to African Life were contemptuous.

Return dates for the application are yet to be set.

  2. Being garrulous can be costly. Now I hope those who hv been giving her all the coverage will apply to court to join these proceedings. It should be a good legal fight.

  3. Just read the name of the cow who has taken this to court- hantuba. You know already that he supports a certain party and therefore he is automatically of a certain tribe. Mu tonga uyo! Paid for by hh to do his dirty work. Our mother nawakwi continues to be harassed by insecure men with small penlses like hh

  5. FOR THE ATTENTION OF LUSAKA TIMES:
    I would like you to caution or suspend the contributor alias Kaizer Zulu on account of his hate of the Tonga people, his hateful and hurtful remarks towards them, not only in this news item, but in others as you Lusaka Times are aware through your moderation of his posts on your news site.

    Furthermore, Kaizer Zulu is corrupting the morals of Zambian people and other readers of Lusaka Times news through insulting language.

    Unless you take action against him, I will complain formally against yourselves, especially now in view of the new Cyber Bullying law and the strength of the morals of a Christian nation that we are as Zambia.

  6. Maybe next time she will think b4 leaping. For a former Minister of Finance Edith Nawakwi is a disgrace and very careless with her Mouth. If Jezebel Nawakwi continues on this senseless and destructive path she will be sued endlessly. Jezebel must think b4 she yaps.

  7. We are standing with mama Edith Nawakwi on this matter. Anglo America and its affiliates have ravaged Zambia for far too long. Anyone knows this man is kissing up to his preferred hh. Let Nawakwi spill the beans on privatization and why Zambia suffers now.

  8. GUNDIXY – That’s LT for you …they have even gone to the extent of blacking out swear words in the impostor’s comment post instead of just blocking it.

  10. Gundixy, the truth hurts. Is it not upnd who said that only a tonga can rule them? I am only saying things that were said by your fellow party members in upnd. You are backing up the wrong tree. Go and complain to your fellow Tonga leaders who uttered those tribal words. Feel free to submit a complaint to ZICTA. I am open to legal challenges. As for tarino, you are just a mere f00l who is insignificant.

  11. Women folk should sit down with
    This lady and advise her to tone down as she is embarrassing the
    Women. Why Did she not fire HH
    When she was minister of finance?
    All was in her hands.

  12. Hantuba is hh’s tonga chola boy…a typical corporate kaw.alala. 99% of all employees at companies associated with hh and Hantuba are tongas…..viva Nawakwi.

  14. BaLusaka Times you are now perpetuating hate in the form tribalism by no other than Kaizar Zulu. I am sure you have not allowed any another person to go beyond this ” redline” persistently and joyfully. Please act now before it’s too late!

  15. @Grundixy. Just ignore this Election Rigging thug. Don’t u know KZ survives on the PF Regime led by a Corrupt, incompetent and Visionless ECL? KZ,Kalimanshi and other PF Militias and Vigilantes depend on the support they get from Plot 1. These thugs will nothing should ECL loose the August 12 Election. The writing is on the wall.

  16. Lusaka Times would do well to heed calls to stop aiding and abetting tribal attacks, abuse and hate on this forum. People can express opposing political views with civility.

  17. What has been coming out of Edith Nawakwi’s mouth is unbelievable, she was a role model for a village girl child and we were telling our daughters and nieces that look at that women Edith, if you work hard you can do even more than what she has achieved in life. But now its difficult to say such as her name is associated with all sorts negativity and character assassinations and her contributions to Zambian politics is fast being eroded. She is being sued here and there, how does she come out such mess?

  18. You should try your best not to take anything tr0lls say seriously. No matter how poorly they behave, remember these people spend countless unproductive hours trying to make people mad. They’re not worth your time of the day.

  19. Because it’s Tongas being abused, LT won’t moderate some postings. Long live equality before Zambian law!

  21. Hantuba is ****, that is a fact. Just after the death of maz0ka , upnd leaders said *****. That is another fact because fast f0rward today lndeed only a t0nga has been fieIded as candldate since death of maz0ka. So tell me now, is mereIy stating facts now considered as tribalism? Lusaka times thank you for taking a level headed appr0ach. You know tribalists get very upset and emotional when they are called out.

  22. Musonda – The problem here is that this is a fake account and this blogger is a UK based impostor/ troll. People like you believe that its K-Z but its not it has tried using prominent PF politicians names like Bowman Lusambo and K-Z simultaneously but has had to backdown once location flags were re-introduced as fake Bowman was also located in UK. It has been on LT far longer than you think playing the same games for its amusement even as an opposition blogger it has no affiliation to PF. There are genuine resident PF bloggers on here who post comments with sober opposing views but the impostor only posts for two reasons decamp PF and spread hate.
    GUNDIXY – If you want to make a complaint to LT forward to this email address sales @ lusakatimes . com you will get a response as…

  24. Lusaka times thank you for moderating the real tribal criminals like tarino.

    Madilu system you have not addressed my previous comment because you know it is true. If you are a **** who is not tribalist, then we call upon you to condemn the tribalism in upnd. Failing which, the implication is that you are also a tribalist. Not all tongas are tribalists but 98 percent of tongas who are upnd supporters are tribalists

    Forward your complaints to Yes of sales @ lusakatimes dot com

  26. DENY IT PF ALL YOU WANT BUT THE WORLD IS WATCHING
    Zambia is one of the fastest eroding democracies in the world. This is according to the Varieties of Democracy Project (V-dem), one of the most trusted sources of information on indicators of democratic progress or regression. The project’s 2020 report notes that Zambia has registered a remarkably rapid decline in the quality of democracy since the last election in 2016.

  27. It is immoral for Zambians to harass women who are in politics, Edith has a right as a Zambian to do politics just as any man has in Zambia.
    I’m surprised how the ignorance of some Zambians is rising so high without restraint, wake up Zambians you are not going to silence the voice of this lady she has a voice also in Zambian politics , don’t Trump on her she is just as intelligent as any man in the game.
    It is my wish that one day she will be in statehouse is the first Zambian woman president , I say cheer up Edith it is not every man who is against your voice.

  28. Tarino I will respond to your complaint myself. It will probably be forwarded to me. Your stubbornness is what leads you to lose elections every five years. After mazoka death, upnd got overtook by tribalists led by the chief tribalist HH. Remember that even my boss ECL was once a upnd member at a time when the party stood for inclusion. Right now it’s a party only for Tonga tribalists like you.

  29. You should try your best not to take ANYTHING trolls say seriously. NO matter how POORLY they behave, remember these people spend countless UNPRODUCTIVE hours trying to make people mad. They’re not WORTH your time of day.

  30. Forward your complaints about this UK based impostor to sales @ lusakatimes dot com trust me LT will look at your complaints as they will think its a business opportunity.

  31. Haha tarino you seem frustrated like a dog on heat. Lusakatimes know I speak nothing but the truth. In fact I am more valuable to lusakatimes than any of your fellow tribal upnd diasporans. The traffic I generate here raises a lot of money for my partners at LT. In fact I can even organise for them to call you directly so that you don’t waste your time sending a useless message to them.

  32. In the 1980s at UNZA, there was a group of Tonga boys who hangout with each other. Muna Hantuba (son to Pemba MP then. They had a big house in Kanchomba), Dindi Simacheche, Sammy Chintombwe (Hakainde Hichilema), etc.

  33. One Zambia, One Nation.
    Facts must said by those that have them.
    Stand up for justice.
    Today this one sues that and the other day that sues who…
    To the best of knowledge their is a starting and ending mark in every race.
