FAITH Musonda today availed herself to Police at Lusaka Division Police Headquarters in the company of her lawyers Makebi Zulu and Jonas Zimba.
According to the statement by Police spokesperson Esther Katongo however, Ms. Musonda’s lawyers have requested more time, hence she will appear on Thursday this week.
“In the spirit of justice, police granted their request,” she said.
Police in Lusaka recovered K65, 330, 000 suspected to have been stolen or unlawfully obtained from a house in Lusaka’s new Kasama area. Zambia Police Spokesperson Esther Katonga said the money was recovered in an operation that was conducted on 17th September 2021 after a tip-off from members of the public.
Ms Katongo stated that during the search, police discovered 30 traveling bags containing Zambian Kwacha notes.
She said that a further search which was conducted by the team discovered a safe containing 57,350 United States dollars which were later seized and handed over to the Bank of Zambia for safekeeping.
“The Bank of Zambia was engaged to count the money in the presence of caretakers as the alleged owner Faith Musonda is reported to have run away from the house,” Ms. Katongo said.
The headline could have been more interesting if it read: lungu’s concubine appears before the police.
Who can be in possession of such a hefty amount if they are not nailed by a top official.
After the news of the Musonda Faith money discovery broke, fizzle may not have been better prepared to police itself. The public knowledge still cherishing the headline whilst PF is holding on peeing in the pants.
This money belongs to the Zambian people. There is no profitable business in Zambia that can get you such a profit without other companies getting involved be serious guys…If this women goes free the new administration is just as useless as the last one. We have suffered enough no medication in hospitals and yet some stupid corrupt politicians are busy splashing heavy cash on their girl’s friends.
Faith Musonda is one of Edgar Lungu’s Wives. If we divide that money going by Zambians with Valid NRC’s, I should have been having a 3 mill by now. It hurts me. Whoever will be found wanting should go to jail before they even say bye to their family.
Where are all the PF vuvuzelas?
Actually-I’m very pissed that she is walking freely like nothing happened.
Only in Zambia where someone can be free and walk around after running away. Why did she run away in the first place. We are not stupid. Where is the source of this income.
Be serious Ba Dec…if you don’t solve this simple case and put some people in Jail. You are all doll…
She is not even beautiful. Why did Mvunga and friends let her keep money in a g-string??.
No cash, shortage of cash.. PF withdrawing cash because dollar appreciated bla bla bla… cash is in pusssiey..
Hahahahaha
Nostradamus – How old are you I ask again? Are you from CB Province?
It is evident that ZP is too ill-equipped to handle such high profile white collar cases…they are still in the guilty till you’re proven innocent mindset of policing, they have nothing at moment because they can not torcher you with being thrown in their dirty cells. Faith is now brainstorming with the best lawyers and crooks in the land to make up her story. I hope ZRA is following this case closely
@Nostradamus,
Nothing for me to comment regarding this article, but could not hold back on your comment……..Boy, I don’t know what you ate today…….your comment is a winner ! You made my day !
Zambia got into the hands of the Mafia the moment we voted for MMD. ZP has lamentably failed to prosecute white collar crimes. Faith can even elect to remain silent so what will the Buju do? Electrocute her litochi to extract info? Let’s just accept that we have failed to rule ourselves. Soon UPND scandals will hit headlines. The Mbumba za UPND that defected to the PF have started to return, that’s the kind of Zambia we have. If you think Faith will end up in jail read the judgement in the Austin Liato case
What time does she need to explain the source?All she has to say she deals in emeralds or certain big fish gave me for
Safe keeping.
A friend close to Faith’s friend is reported to have said that Faith was struggling for cash about a year or two to finish building her studio. Workers went unpaid. So in the last 18 or so months she has managed to raise that much money? This is a Jesus turning water into wine moment. I’d like to know her secret.
Nothing will happen to her and she’ll get all her money back…I told you it’s just change of who’s in plot 1 and traffic light change from green to red…. she’ll walk away Scott free…..UPND is just as corrupt as PF….look the 48 houses story how it has finally died….all under UPND
High class bitch masquerading as a Christian. If the police fail to get a successful prosecution it woll be their own fault.
Our Police only know how to intimidate ignorant cadres like Maxwell Chongo who don’t know how to lawyer up quickly like this girl Faith….PF was a rotten govt indeed even Joe Biden said this at that UN.
Saulosi – You sound like broken record trying so hard to push your 48 houses and connect it to Bo Situmbeko…please move on, you sound like Sean Tembo now!!
Even my 10 year old nephew can do better than you at blogging…really laughable
@Ayatollah
Tell that to Tarino Orange…he is the only left supporting his small god HH….PF members and former UPND are returning back to UPND…according to Tarino Orange thats the change Zambians voted for kikikikiki
They are building a case against lungu and his PF gang……..
The suspects are going nowhere……
The net is closing in………
Saulosi – Now you are pigeon holing me just to be vexatious ..really laughable …you can do better than that man I have no affiliation to UPND
Nostradamus – If I recall some years back you said you were a lecturer or tutor…have you been thoroughly vetted?
@Spaka
Building a case against who…..Lungu…you will be very disappointed…All that money will be given back to Faith and eventually back to Lungu…remember HH is also a Politician….do you know that all Politicians get along behind closed doors….Charmaine Musonda is back in UPND…..and soon GBM will follow….and eventually all the PF criminals will start wearing red….and still hold on to all the stolen money…UPND WILL END UP WORSE THAN PF…mark my words
“TO DECONGEST the central business district, Government has embarked on an ambitious project to create bus stations behind Levy Junction Mall and on the Kafue road.The bus station at Levy Junction Mall will service east-bound commuters who live in places like Roma, Chelstone and Avondale while the one on the Kafue road will cater for Chawama, Makeni and other places in the south direction” – Minister of Local Government and Rural Development Gary Nkombo.
I am sure Saulosi will pour cold water on this one as well…
We should have allowed her to walk until either she gave us some hard evidence for the big fish or surrender any other amounts she has had. It looks like she established a private bank of Zambia in her home. We have a feeling this money is not everything. More is been hidden.
@24
That won’t work ……we’ve tried that before it’s only that you haven’t been paying attention since it wasn’t HH in office….remember MMD tried to remove the railway line from town ….and they wanted to come up with a special route for trucks from Makeni bypassing CBD to Mandevu or 10 miles….even what UPND is trying to do is just a band aid….the only way is to get rid of all the shanty komboni in town…Kanyama, chawama,John Laing, Garden etc

You sound like you have lost hope in the human race , comrade………
Not every human is a theif , try going for councilling ……
If.you have to be a thief in Zambia then still big you are likely never to smell the inside the cells not to talk of prison. Sembe ndifwe bama 2kwacha two weeks muselo elo no nalawyer. Uzaleka
More time to tell lies ..? This is a very easy case to handle from Govt side. For one thing – am certain about is that this money was NOT declared to ZRA therefore no returns and payments were made for VAT, Income Tax and PAYE. Interpretation : Tax invasion case – subject to forfeiture or imprisonment , Principal taxes for all three taxes are due, Penalties for late return submission, Penalties for late tax payments…
For DEC – no concrete source of wealth is straight forfeiture of all Assets owned by Suspect.
