In a statement released , the family expressed distress over the treatment GBM has received from government authorities regarding his health condition. They assert that GBM, who is reported to be suffering from a serious heart ailment, has been prevented from seeking necessary medical attention abroad, despite court orders permitting him to do so.
The family accuses certain individuals within the government of exerting undue influence on state organs, resulting in what they describe as a callous disregard for GBM’s fundamental right to medical care. They allege that despite court approval for GBM to travel for specialized treatment, he was blocked from leaving the country, leading to the cancellation and postponement of crucial medical appointments in South Africa.
Furthermore, the family’s legal representatives have issued a stern warning to the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) and the government at large, holding them accountable for any adverse consequences resulting from the denial of medical treatment to GBM. They stress that the Commission will be held responsible for any delays in the prosecution of GBM’s case, as well as the emotional distress inflicted upon him.
GBM’s family emphasizes his contributions to Zambian society and his significant investments in the country, portraying him as a patriotic citizen and not a flight risk.
The situation surrounding GBM’s health has garnered widespread attention, with many expressing solidarity with his family’s plea for justice and accountability. As the controversy unfolds, all eyes remain on the government’s response to these allegations and the treatment of GBM’s medical condition.
The manner in which politicians treat each other! You’d wonder whether they’ve any brains at all. It’s a vicious cycle. When tables change and inevitably so, those that are mistreating their colleagues will also begin to squeal in the same manner. It’s like they’re possessed by some kind of demon
When you have the heartless insecure holy trio of Israel namely Nkombo, Mweetwa and Mwiimbu influencing HH in decision making, forget about objective thinking. Have you forgotten how much mockery, malice, prejudice and pull him/her down full energies that they exerted on their own brethren like Siacheye Madyenkuku, Edify Hamukale, Mike Mundali and jonas Shakafuswa for simply thinking differently? Do you think remote placed GB Mwamba can receive priority? For them absence of better and patriotic political players is what measures their success on their mediocre routine minds. Forget. GBMs family must just meet the costs. no merit anymore in Zambia.
All ACC should be arrested for manslaughter of GBM. Close ACC please. GBM don’t die bwana.
Nga always uyo, UPND mukamona. He is from the Bemba royal family and brace yourselves for the political consequences.
This is piffle itself. What did Michael Sata do to the apex Bemba royal with no resultant political consequences?
I meant to write, “nga afwa uyo…”
Politicians are the most naive and evil pipo, so short-sighted who uses govt organs to eliminate each other. It has never occurred to them that in the first place they should build and maintain excellent world-class hospitals for all pipo. You politicians shame on you all
This country is finished. So if GBM dies you will celebrate: One down and…. to go. Where does it do for you? It won’t make you live forever. If GBM has issues with courts there are ways to ensure he doesn’t run away if he’s allowed to go to South Africa for treatment.
The cruelest ministers are Jack Mwiimbu and Cornelius Mweetwa. It’s like their preoccupation is revenge.
That Mweetwa is as stubborn as a goat yet he knows nothing
Let him go for treatment if he is sponsoring himself unlike those who wanted the state to take care of them. Allowing someone to perish just because you don’t like his political affiliation is outright ev1l. If GBM can sponsor an entire party then let him sponsor himself to the best doctors. This is why our politicians need to learn that building capacity at home is a much better investment than relying on foreign trips. Get well soon GBM but please invest heavily on home soil to leave a legacy for yourself. Build a heavily equipped private hospital back home and call it ‘GBM general’, a much better legacy than sponsoring those vuvuzelas.
With all the money he boasts about why doesn’t he just go ???
Have you read this poorly written article? He can afford to go but the government organs are preventing that
Medland is world class hospital. Why don’t our politicians build more hospitals right here in Zambia? Instead they are the ones that cry loudest for evacuations. All good hospitals in Zambia are built by foreigners. What is wrong with us!!!!
You are right. I don’t see why we don’t use some of the money being used for cdf which is just a conduit of something else, to build an ultra modern hospital equipped with the best machines and staffed by the best doctors.
Mudala KK never went abroad for treatment and made sure the UTH was up to date.
Or upgrade the Chinsali General Hospital so that GBM can just walk from Kasama to Chinsali.
When they go to those hospitals in SA, they are treated by Zambian doctors and nurses!!
@Nkosi and @Deja Vu good points and mature discussion. My answer to your question is Mindset. Most people in Zambia have not found there purpose in life. They live everyday blaming circumstances and others. Foreigners on the other hand, actually show us the value within our country by building businesses and winning on our own turf.

By the way if above statement is true regarding ignoring court orders, Kelvin Fube Bwalya you are a lawyer, sue the government for contempt of court. Prove this allegation in a court of law. Also, members of parliament on both sides of the aisle could table matter if there is any merit in claims made in the above article. Otherwise, this is BSaU
This should be a lesson to people like CK, Miles and others. Umulomo tawawama. Look at where GBM is now!
Now they have issued a warrant of some sort to arrest him#Habeenzu…yes umolomo tawawama. I listened to this at a rally as Upnd VP…. the things he said against Edgar Lungu oh…ati ka president kamonekafye insala. Uyu Hakainde kuti akalisha na Zambia yonse pa ng’ombe isho akwata.
Deja Vu,
Exactly, You see how evil they are, the hatred and vengeance toward ECL. Bad heart will never take anyone anywhere.. mmmm, they can kill for this. What happened to our nation kanshi????
What has happened ??
Too many filled with their self importance
Just read the daily blogs
They stole billions leaving hospitals without equipment, doctors or medicine. Now Fat Albert wants us to pay for his evacuation to South Africa. No ways, go to court first and clear yourself before we allow you to leave the country. And why is it that all PF presidential hopefuls are sick, look at Chimbwily Kashimber, also sick!
Why were court orders needed to permit him to go abroad for treatment? Who was objecting and why?
………
He is just pretending to be sick……..
Nearly all of them do, to avoid interrogations……….or
To go outside zambia to spend some of their stashed stolen money……..
