Nevers Mumba Warns Politicians Against Seeking Juju for Electoral Victory

New Nation Party (NNP) president Nevers Mumba says some desperate politicians are seeking supernatural powers from witch doctors to win the upcoming August general elections.

Dr Mumba warned that power obtained through witchcraft is unsustainable and should not be entertained in Zambia’s political space.

Speaking when he addressed NNP members in Choma before holding a town hall meeting, Dr Mumba said he is aware that some politicians are approaching witch doctors in an attempt to secure victory in the forthcoming polls.

“Now, as we are going towards the elections, witch doctors and wizards have become the richest because politicians are rushing to them to seek power so that they can win,” he said.

“Every day, as I speak, there are some politicians who are kneeling before a witch doctor asking for power to win the election,” Dr Mumba said.

“Let me talk to you as a pastor. If you go to a witch doctor to win an election, he will give you that power, but it belongs to him. So whenever he comes, he will be demanding a sacrifice, and sometimes it will be the blood of your loved one.”

Dr Mumba said Zambians should vote for people who are genuine Christians and not those who have no respect for God. He added that citizens should guard against vulgar and insulting leaders who are full of hatred.

He said there should be no room for criminals to dominate the political space, stating that doing so would misrepresent Zambia’s declaration as a Christian nation.

“Do not test God by calling yourselves a Christian nation and then populating politics with unchristian people who have no respect for God Himself,” he said.

Dr Mumba further stated that the NNP is in an alliance with the UPND because it is the best course of action for the country.

“Let us campaign for President Hichilema because he has done what Zambia needs for the next five years,” he said.

Dr Mumba also announced that he will not contest in the August general elections, saying President Hichilema deserves support for continued stability and economic transformation.

He said the work done by the Head of State within a short period was significant, adding that the previous regime had left the economy in a damaged state.

  4. If Juju works we will start listening to the Mumbas. But then how about a juju minister of finance? Sworn in at 10 and the Kwacha at 1-1 with the dollar at 14h00?
    One little juju dance in BOZ vaults and all bullions from neighboring countries’ central banks shift to Cairo Road!
    Another dance in ministry of health and theres no small pox, no malnutrition no hiv, yaba! Vote for the juju party!

    • @Juju Malema, indeed we should be the richest country on earth if it worked! Kikikikiki!
      What is sad is that a so-called man of God believes in this…
      Begs to wonder how this mixes with christianity….

  5. Scoff all you want unfortunately it still plays a major part in politics
    Some will go to any length to gain power
